Rainbow approves scope expansion of Pump Station #1 upgrades

The Rainbow Municipal Water District has opted to expand the scope of its professional services contract with Infrastructure Engineering Corporation for design services to upgrade Pump Station No. 1.

Rainbow's board voted 4-0 Dec. 6, with Rich Bigley absent, to expand the scope of the district's contract with IEC for the additional work. The expanded scope of work increases the contract amount by $61,296 for a total amount of $168,789.

"It's one of our largest pump stations," said Rainbow general manager Tom Kennedy. "We need to make sure it's kept in good working condition."
