It has always <br />been the intent to complete the third well after the two production <br />wells and one test well prove satisfactory and the water withdrawal <br />permit has been obtained. This procedure had previously been approved <br />by the Board of County Commissioners to assure that the wells would prove <br />satisfactory before investing in the third well. <br />ALTERNATIVES AND ANALYSIS <br />The attached information from Sverdrup and Parcel has documentation <br />which shows the bid prices from Alsay-Pippin for installing the well and <br />Geraghty and Miller for the hydrogeology work. <br />This bid price is shown less expensive when compared with bids from <br />other well contractors. This competitive comparison was required by <br />FmHA before they would agree to cover the cost of the well construction <br />as a change order. The comparison is as follows: <br />Contractor Bid <br />Alsay Pippin $45,488.00 <br />McCullers & Howard $57,120.00 <br />Layne -Atlantic $53,692.00 <br />Meredith Corp. $63,990.00 <br />RECOMMENDATION AND FUNDING <br />It is recommended that Change Order =2 be approved for the well <br />construction by Alsay-Pippin for 545,488.00; that task of logging, <br />testing, and documentation of the ;cell and water samples as well as the <br />report be approved for Geraghty and Miller for $17,200.00 (as esti-ated <br />by them); that the Chairman of the Board of County Commissioners 'e <br />authorized to execute 5 copies of Change Order No. 2 for FmHt;. <br />It was confirmed through Tommy Tho -as, the engineering consul ant, <br />and the finance office that there is a balance of S82,504.99 olus interest <br />available of the $450,000 original loan to start the South County ;.,later <br />Plant project. This will more than adecuateiy cover the S45,488.00 + <br />$17,200 = $62,688.00 that this well will cost - and have some money <br />remaining. The available funds will therefore cover the cost of this <br />well as was planned. <br />35 <br />800K 48 PACE -258 <br />
