Explanation
BACKGROUND: The original contract for the Hap Cremean Water Plant High & Low Service Piping Coating provided for the removal and replacement of original piping coating, that has deteriorated, debonded and failed. Due to the deterioration of existing 48" pipe, the piping has to be removed and replaced to accomodate installation of the new 48" couplings. This proposed contract modification will allow the Contractor to install new piping and couplings to connect and seal properly to allow installation of the piping coating in this area. This modification provides for additional Construction services that could not be initially foreseen due to pipe conditions encountered during construction.
EMERGENCY PROVISION: Emergency legislation is being requested to provide these services concurrently with the ongoing construction contract and to finish work prior to start of summer high pumpage water usage.
