Explanation
1. BACKGROUND:
This legislation authorizes the Director of Public Utilities to execute a final construction contract modification with Mid Ohio Pipeline, Inc., in connection with the Castle Rd. Force Main Discharge Point Relocation Project.

The original contract was funded through a loan from the Ohio Water Development Authority, and a supplemental loan after an initial attempt at installing the line failed. This modification is required to pay for a final successful effort at installing the force main under Interstate 71, utilizing a pipe-ramming process. The use of Voted Sanitary Bond Funds will provide the funding required to process a final payment, and to officially close this project. (For Further Information See ORD0331-2006LegislationAttachment.doc)

2. FISCAL IMPACT:
The Division requests the authority to expend voted sanitary bond funds to process this final payment to the construction contractor. Funding for this expenditure was included within the Fall, 2005 Bond Sale.
