SLRP_Index_&_Certification_Page.pdf

This is an Index and Certification Page for the Sewer Lateral Replacement Project prepared by the City of Palo Alto, California. The project is part of the Council-approved Capital Improvement Program (CIP) and aims to improve the reliability of the City's wastewater collection system while reducing the risk of sanitary sewer overflows. The scope of work involves replacing deteriorated public sewer laterals identified through a comprehensive review of approximately 2,454 laterals, with 210 laterals selected for replacement based on high-frequency maintenance records and structural integrity issues. The project is structured as a three-year construction contract with approximately 70 public sewer laterals to be replaced annually, grouped into three sets. Depending on site conditions, pipe bursting or open-cut installation methods will be utilized for the lateral replacements.

The document serves as the index and certification page for technical specifications and appendices related to the project. The file was prepared and reviewed by the City of Palo Alto as of March 31, 2026. The document certifies the technical provisions and specifications that govern the contract execution and project implementation. No specific pricing terms, award dates, response deadlines, or bidding details are contained within this index and certification page itself, as it functions primarily as a cover document directing users to the detailed technical specifications and special provisions contained in the full contract documentation.
