ON MOTION BY COMMISSIONER SCURLOCK, SECONDED BY COMMIS- <br />SIONER BIRD, THE BOARD UNANIMOUSLY APPROVED CHANGE ORDER #2 FOR <br />GIFFORD SEWER CONTRACT, AS FOLLOWS: <br />INDIAN RIVER COUNTY, FLORIDA <br />INTER - OFFICE MEMORANDUM <br />TO: Honorable Members of the <br />Board of County Commissioners <br />FROM: Nei 1 Nel son <br />County Adm. <br />DATE: Apri 1 6, 1981 FI LE: <br />SUBJECT: Change Order #2 for Gifford <br />Sewer Contract <br />REFERENCES: <br />I <br />DESCRIPTION & CONDITIONS - <br />After the contracted refurbishment work was begun, a gravity sewer blockage <br />occured on 38th Court. -Two problems were found to cause the blockage by sand; <br />1. - A broken bell that permitted sand and water to infiltrate and 2. - A dip <br />in the gravity line that allowed settlement and blockage by the sand. <br />ALTERNATIVES & ANALYSIS - <br />The alternative would be to contract this work to another contractor - but it <br />would be for a higher price. County's crews are not presently equipped for this <br />type work. This work costing $1,000.00 should be done to prevent continual <br />problems with sewer blockage, sand from eroding lift -station pump impellers <br />are interfering with the sewage treatment plant process. <br />RECOMMENDATIONS & FUNDING - <br />I recommend that the Board of County Commissioners approve this work so that <br />the Chairman can sign the change order. It will then be processed in the normal <br />course of action by FMHA and ultimately be paid by them. <br />Distribution: <br />George Liner ` <br />john Robbins <br />File <br />Approve Agenda Item: <br />For <br />Date <br />By\—�,�. <br />APR 151981 <br />5 POOK 46 PACE223 <br />:.�,. <br />
