Explanation
1. BACKGROUND:
This legislation authorizes the Director of Public Utilities to modify the professional engineering services agreement with CH2M Hill, for the Southerly Wastewater Treatment Plant Sludge Dewatering and Miscellaneous Improvements Project for the Division of Sewerage and Drainage. The original contract was signed with BBS Corporation. BBS Corporation has now been acquired by CH2M Hill and we are modifying a contract with CH2M Hill. Engineering services for this project are being funded incrementally by contract modification as portions of the work are undertaken to advance the project through planning, engineering design and construction of facilities. The Division has determined that these services cannot be performed by City personnel at this time, and has planned for the procurement of these services on a routine basis.
The contract modification now proposed provides funding for engineering services required for this project's construction contract. It provides for additional technical project representation services now needed for the proper project completion for Contract S64. The cost of the modification is a continuation of the vendor's current pricing structure, as verified by City staff. This is the final modification for this project as no other modifications have been scheduled.
2. FISCAL IMPACT:
The Division will be using funds from the recent bond sale, which has sufficient authority in the 2006 Capital Improvements Budget.
