The alternates proposed will all solve this problem. The most desirable alternate for the City is 3A as it would allow the City to eliminate L.S. i10 at some time in the future. NWCC has select.' Alternute 3 as the preferred alternate as it provides the least co^t. The construction cost increase to go with Alter,. to 3A is $233,439, which M.ICC would expect the City of Orono to pay The MWCC proposed to re am several :cements of the e:;.tiog gravity system to the City of Orono under Alternate 3, The return of these lines will result in some increased maintenance costs for the City of Orono. We feel that thx City of Orono sho ' at,r«e to taking beck the lines provided NWCC proceeds with Alternate 3A ..t their exper.a.,, The City of Orono does not have authority to accept or reject G.c se ted Alternate. Politically MWCC could prefer the City' concurrence and on r`.st basis we a ild try to get what is most beneficial to the Citj. MW:C doas jot have any p :danre for returning lines and this way be to tt,a C. ,'a adv, tags. The City of Orono shoald be looking at increasing the capacit- of our system in thr ree of L.S. i10. The City has experienced prublemL w'rh basement f loading is the +t as diec.saed. The selzction of Alternat :1 by NWCC would allow I..' to be eliminated as a p..: of upgrading this system. We recommend that the City of Orono pass a resolution recommend4ng that the MWCC pr. ted with Alt • ate 31 If you have any questions please contact this office.
