This change order contains several items that are summarized in the Change <br />Order and its attachments.

If <br />Change Order No. 5 is approved, the contract price will increase to $6,211,784.93. <br />' Osprey Marsh (formerly known as PC South), is a regional stormwater pollution reduction facility similar to Egret <br />Marsh Stormwater Park that uses algae to remove dissolved nutrients from polluted water.
