CHANDLER <br />COUNTY ADMINISTRATOR <br />FROM: TERRANCE G. PINT <br />DIRECTOR OF UTI VICES <br />PREPARED ROBERT O. WISEMEN, P.E. <br />AND STAFFED ENVIRONMENTAL ENGINEER <br />BY: DEPARTMENT OF UTILITY SERVICES <br />SUBJECT: LAURELWOOD FORCE MAIN AND LIFT STATION UP-GJRADE <br />PHASE I - 27TH AVENUE FORCE MAIN <br />CHANGE ORDER NO. 1 <br />INDIAN RIVER COUNTY PROJECT NO. US -96 -03 -CS <br />BACKGROUND <br />On May 28, 1996, the Board of County Commissioners awarded the <br />construction of Phase I, of the.27th Avenue force main project to <br />Treasure Coast Contracting, Inc., in the amount of $121,724.70. <br />The construction is 80% complete. Field change orders were given <br />to the contractor to adjust the location of the force main due to <br />conflicts with existing utilities and drainage culverts. <br />ANALYSIS <br />To avoid conflict with other existing utilities as well as drainage <br />culverts <br />during construction, the force main was constructed closer to the <br />road. This relocation required more ductile iron pipe instead of <br />the PVC pipe that was originally proposed. Also the Florida <br />Department of Transportation requires that a six inch thick <br />asphaltic pavement be used in the restoration instead of the two <br />inch that was originally proposed. The total amount of the field <br />change orders (attached), which includes the relocation of a fire <br />hydrant, is $28,421.20. This adjusts the contract amount to <br />$150,145.90. <br />The staff of the Department of Utility Services recommends approval <br />of Change Order No. 1, in the amount of $28,421.20 which adjusts <br />the contract amount to $150,145.90. <br />101 <br />JULY 23, 1996 BOOK 98 F'u.681 <br />
