George Liner, Utilities Dept. <br />Indian River County <br />-2- <br />ITEM #2 - GIFFORD AREA SEWERAGE IMPROVEMENTS <br />November 18, 1980 <br />Engineer's Project No. 5675-G <br />Status of Gifford Area Sewerage Improvements is as follows: <br />--Mr. Thomas Hoskins with FmHA in Gainesville, Florida, has verbally <br />given authorization to execute the original Contract Documents with <br />Driveways, Inc. We anticipate formal communication with FmHA by the <br />end of this week. <br />In any event, we will begin negotiating changes in scope.of work to <br />the original contract plans and specifications on Friday, November 21, <br />1980. The intention of these negotiations is to determine what modifi- <br />cations to unit prices and scope of work are necessary, due to the <br />delay in this project and relocation of the treatment facility. After <br />receiving revised cost figures from the Contractor, we will prepare a <br />change order to incorporate cost changes and adopt the revised techni- <br />cal specifications and construction drawings. Again, this procedure <br />has been approved by FmHA, State Offices in Gainesville. <br />We have received initial review comments on plans and specifications <br />submitted to the Department of Environmental Regulation. These comments <br />will be incorporated into the plans and specifications prior to negotiat- <br />ing with Driveways, Inc. In addition, we have submitted a request to DER <br />for a 10 week extension of the construction schedule required by the <br />original permit for this project. <br />ITEM #3 - PEBBLE BAY AREA SEWERAGE IMPROVEMENTS <br />Engineer's Project No. 6765 <br />Status of Pebble Bay Area Sewerage Improvements is as follows: <br />--We are continuing to work with the Utilities Department and the Town of <br />Indian River Shores to determine the overall system design for implementing <br />this project. We have been requested by the Town of Indian River Shores <br />to submit a proposal to them to perform engineering services to connect <br />the Town's system to the City of Vero Beach. As this project could be <br />viewed as a combined project, it has been noted one overall system design <br />would be in the best interest of the County, City and Town. We will be <br />presenting a basic overall system approach to the Town on Thursday, <br />November 20. <br />In addition, we will be working with the Utilities Department in the mean- <br />time for overall system design. After development of an overall system <br />approach with concurrence by the Town and County, we then would propose <br />to submit the system approach to the City of Vero Beach for their concur- <br />rence. Then, we would be in the position to proceed with final plans <br />and specifications. <br />NOV <br />191980 31 BOOK 45 PACE275 <br />
