(GFA) for construction testing <br /> services during construction of PC South Algal Nutrient Removal Facility. The Board of <br /> County Commissioners approved the facility's construction on July 16, 2013. Staff <br /> recommends GFA perform the construction testing because the firm provided <br /> geotechnical engineering analysis during final project design and is therefore, already <br /> familiar with the site and design characteristics. GFA also provided construction testing <br /> for the Egret Marsh concrete floway construction and therefore, it is intimately familiar <br /> with associated construction testing issues. <br /> The not-to-exceed amount for Work Order No. GFA-3 is $47,850. A copy of the Work <br /> Order is attached. Costs will be based on unit prices set forth in the Continuing <br /> Contract Agreement between the County and GFA. <br /> ANALYSIS <br /> Alternative No. 1 —Approve Work Order No. GFA-3. <br /> Alternative No. 2 — Reject Work Order No. GFA-3. <br /> F:\Public Works\KeithM\Stormwater Projects\PC South Construion\Agenda Items\Agenda-Consent-GFA Engineering&Testing <br /> zro <br /> WO#GFA-3-8-7-2013.doc 75 <br />
