Informational Item <br />7A <br />Indian River County, Florida <br />Department of Utility Services <br />Board Memorandum <br />Date: September 27, 2019 <br />To: Jason E. Brown, County Administrator <br />From: Vincent Burke, PE, Director of Utility Services <br />Prepared By: Arjuna Weragoda, PE, Capital Projects Manager <br />Subject: West Wabasso Phase 2 Septic to Sewer IRLNEP Funding Agreement— Change Order No. 1 <br />Descriptions and Conditions: <br />On October 2, 2018, the Indian River County Board of County Commissioners (BCC) approved the Fiscal Year <br />(FY) 18/19 Cost -Share Agreement between the Indian River Lagoon National Estuary Program (IRLNEP) and <br />Indian River County, which is scheduled to expire September 30, 2019. On January 15, 2019, the BCC approved <br />the award of the contract to CK Contractors and Development. The notice to proceed was issued February 18, <br />2019. The project is substantially complete. <br />Analysis/Engineering: <br />Since the issuance of the notice to proceed, Indian River County Department of Utility Services (IRCDUS) staff <br />made numerous attempts to obtain three-phase power to the proposed lift station. The delay in having power <br />supplied to the proposed lift station delayed the contractor performing startup testing on the lift station. <br />Without a fully functioning lift station, the contractor is unable to connect households. Now that the power <br />has been supplied, the contractor has connected approximately 52 individual households to the centralized <br />sewer system. Because of this delay, staff requested a three-month extension from IRL Council to complete <br />the project. The extension Was granted. In the essence of time, the IRCDUS Director signed the no -cost <br />administrative time extension. <br />Financing/Funding: <br />The above.changes to the contract were merely extending the contract time and has no impact on pricing. <br />Therefore, there is no change to the original approved budget of $1,700,000. <br />Recommendation: <br />The subject item is informational only and therefore does not require action by the Indian River County <br />Board of County Commissioners. <br />Attachment: <br />No Cost Change Order No. 1 to IRL 2018-01 Contract (on file in the IRCDUS office) <br />F:\Utilities\UTILITY - Engineering\Projects - Utility Construction Permits\IRC - West Wabasso Community Sewer System Phase 2 - UCP# 3 <br />4117\Admin\Grants\IRLNEP\Agenda -West Wabasso Septic to Sewer IRLNEP-Change Order No.l.docx <br />
