extends from the State Road 60 corridor through the Gifford area to the west bank of the Indian River, including the hospital and surrounding area. The limits of the study area to be included in the water master plan are shown in Exhibit A attached to the agreement. These agreements also authorize Boyle Engineering Corporation to develop a computer model of the water distribution system which shall be used by the engineer to analyze the system. The engineer will also advise the County of the equipment needed for an IBM PC computer system to operate the computer model, and the engineer will develop the computer model in such a manner that it can be converted for use on this equipment. Boyle Engineering Corporation will also prepare maps showing the County's existing water distribution system. All water system information used by the engineer for preparation of the maps shall be provided by the County. The engineer will not perform any field location work. Exhibit B to the agreement presents an estimate of the work tasks, number of manhours, direct wages and salaries, reim- bursable expenses.and budget for completing the scope of services. RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends the Board authorize its Chairman to execute these two agreements on behalf of Indian River County. Chairman Scurlock reported that he has been working with Director Pinto on this and he has one more area of discussion - Sec. 1.1.2 on Page 4 of the proposed agreement re Work Tasks. Attorney Brandenburg stated that he has a proposed amendment to that action, and the new language, to which the engineering firm has agreed, reads as follows: 1.1.2 The OWNER and ENGINEER agree that the Work Tasks described in Exhibit B, attached hereto and incorporated herein as though set forth in full, represent the Work Tasks that are anticipated of the ENGINEER by the OWNER for development of an estimated budget for the Water System Master Plan Project. Further, the OWNER and ENGINEER agree that the level of effort by labor classification set forth in Exhibit B appears reasonable and was used to develop an estimated budget for the Project. Material differences between the actual Work Tasks and level of effort required for completion of the Project and that shown in Exhibit B will be used by the ENGINEER and the OWNER as a basis for amending the estimated budget. Discussion ensued as to whether we are telling the engineer to utilize our present plant capacity and transmission system to its utmost ability or that we definitely want another plant in the North County, and Chairman Scurlock noted that we have already expanded from the original study with a line to Route 60, 53 DEC 121984 50 F,�cF 205
