The new storage reservoir will obviate the need for the existing Reservoir 2,thus eliminating the risk for a catastrophic failure of the western and southern embankments of the reservoir which are in poor condition. Also,the existing Valve House No. 2 is over 75 years old. Reid Middleton has performed a visual examination of the building to investigate its structural condition and to assess its probable seismic performance. The investigation concluded that the Valve House is both seismically deficient and poorly configured for valve maintenance. The report recommended the replacement of the Valve House. RECOMMENDATION (Exact action requested of Council): Authorize Call for Request of"Statement of Qualific4ions" for the Replacement of Reservoir 2
