Explanation
BACKGROUND: The original contract for Hoover Reservoir Erosion Control - Improvement #35 provided for protection of some lands surrounding Hoover Reservoir from damage due to shoreline erosion caused by wave action and fluctuating levels in the reservoir. Unusually persistent high water levels in the reservoir throughout 2003 and 2004 necessitated that the work be suspended mid-project. In accordance with CMSC 104.02 this modification provides redress for the Contractor for the unknown physical conditions due to these high water conditions. This modification also includes a balancing of actual to estimated quantities, and a change of scope on the haul road restoration portion of the project, which resulted in a credit.
CC 329.16 CONTRACT MODIFICATIONS:
1. Amount of additional funds to be expended under this modification: $97,236.07.
2. The extent of additional services could not be initially foreseen due to unusually persistent high water levels encountered during construction.
3. The work under this contract modification is a continuation of work previously performed by the Contractor, therefore, no other processes were used for procurement of these services.
4. The cost of this modification is based on material and labor, and was negotiated between the Consultant and the City, as documented by the Consultant's quotation letter, and verified by the Project Engineer.
