Explanation

1. BACKGROUND: This legislation authorizes the Director of Public Utilities to modify the professional engineering services agreement with CH2M Hill, for the Jackson Pike and Southerly Wastewater Treatment Plants' Sludge Holding Systems Improvements Project for the Division of Sewerage and Drainage. The original contract was signed with BBS Corporation which has been acquired by CH2M Hill.

This modification provides engineering services for the project improvements at the City's two wastewater treatment plants. This project provides for construction of sludge storage and sludge truck loading facilities at both plants, and improvements to the Jackson Pike Wastewater Treatment Plant's flushing water, dilution water and potable water systems. This legislation will additionally transfer cash between projects within the Sanitary Sewer Bond Fund; amend the 2006 Capital Improvements Budget and authorize the expenditure of $366,163.00 within the Sanitary Sewer Bond Fund.

2. PROPOSED CONTRACT MODIFICATION - $366,163.00: This modification will provide funding for the following: Additional costs for technical and field services during construction, including continuation of these services through a 24 month period beyond the original schedule; additional engineering tasks; training for plant operations personnel on the constructed facilities; estimated increased costs for producing record drawings and manuals for facility operation.

3. FISCAL IMPACT: Monies for these projects were included in the recent bond sale and sufficient authority is in the 2006 Capital Improvements Budget. The transfer and amendment is needed to place the amounts in the correct project.
