Council Committee, Boards and Commission Action: May 20, 2026 - Reviewed by the Water and Wastewater Commission. Additional Backup Information: Austin Water’s collection system is a large and complex, consisting of approximately 3,000 miles of wastewater mains and serving approximately one million customers, and is fundamental for the transfer of the wastewater to Austin Water’s treatment plants. The Crosstown Tunnel is a critical component of Austin’s wastewater collection system by collecting wastewater from most of north Austin for delivery to the Walnut Creek Wastewater Treatment Plant for treatment and discharge. Due to submerged and pressurized pipe sections near the Walnut Creek Wastewater Treatment Plant, the Crosstown Tunnel experiences odorous air releases and potential for infrastructure deterioration due to the harsh conditions and corrosive gases in the wastewater environment. This project includes the construction of a centralized odor control facility to remove odorous and corrosive gases directly from the Crosstown Tunnel, treat these gases, and release the treated air into the atmosphere. The proposed system will consist of bio-trickling filter treatment units, blowers, reclaimed process water service, and associated electrical and controls infrastructure.  Item 4 Water & Wastewater Commission: May 20, 2026 Council: May 28, 2026 This removal, treatment and disposal of the gases from the system will mitigate odor discharges from the system and mitigate corrosion issues along the tunnel’s length. This project supports Austin Water’s ongoing commitment to maintain a sustainable wastewater collection system. This item includes one allowance of $75,000 to be used to address top end programming. An allowance is an amount that is specified and included in the construction contract or specifications for a certain item(s) of work when details are not determined at the time of bidding. Due to the potential for unforeseen and unknown site conditions and to minimize the potential for delays in completion of construction, a 10% contingency in funding has been included to allow for the expeditious processing of any change orders to cover any unforeseen construction costs associated with the project. By authorizing the additional contingency funding, Council is authorizing any change orders within the contingency amount. Potential public impact will be additional traffic at the project entryway along FM 969 and at the intersection of FM 969 and Johnny Morris Road due to construction traffic. There will be signs to alert the public of this construction entrance. There will be no other impacts to the public as the project is entirely contained on city property that is not open to the public. This construction contract is time-sensitive and is critical to the improvement of the infrastructure stability of Austin’s wastewater collection systems. A delay in contract approval increases the risk of further potential degradation to the collection system, and continuing odor complaints. The contract allows 730 calendar days for completion of this project. This project is located within zip code 78725 (District 1). Crosstown Tunnel Centralized Odor Control Facility CIP ID: 6943.027 City of Austin Council Meeting Backup: May 28, 2026File ID: 26-1699Page 1 of 1City of Austin Council Agenda Backup: May 28, 2026 CP Calculator Compliance Plan Verification File ID: 26-1699 PROJECT GOALS OR SUBGOALS MBE (use only if MBE/WBE goal) AFRICAN AMERICAN HISPANIC AMERICAN NATIVE/ASIAN AMERICAN WBE (Enter goals set for % 2.14% 3.18% 0.78% 1.19% Bidder: Sol#: Project Name: Keeley Construction CLMC1150 $15,051,200.00 Base Bid Amount SUBGOALS: PROPOSED PARTICIPATION (Enter from the Bidder's Compliance Plan Summary Section III) (enter $ amounts only) AFRICAN AMERICAN HISPANIC NATIVE/ASIAN AMERICAN WBE NON-CERTIFIED Total Subcontractor Participation Bidder (Own Participation minus Subs) TOTAL CP Summary 2.97% 3.46% 2.10% 1.87% 20.44% 30.85% 69.15% 100.00% $447,300.00 $521,346.00 $316,255.00 $282,094.00 $3,075,970.00 $10,408,235.00 Enter Sub Details from Section IV-VI (This helps determine accurate accounting of participation) (enter $ amounts only) INDIVIDUAL SUBCONTRACTORS PARTICIPATION Cert Y/N?
