Explanation
BACKGROUND: The original contract for the Dublin Road Water Plant Low Service Spare Pump Bowl Reconditioning project provided for construction services to furnish all materials; equipment and labor necessary to recondition the low service spare pump bowl, and such other work as may be necessary. Upon commencing the Spare Pump Bowl Reconditioning project the contractor Moody's of Dayton determined the pump impeller shaft was worn in the bearing areas and the housing for the bearing was broken; as these items could not be pre-determined prior to disassembling the pump, a contract modification is necessary to perform this additional unanticipated work. This modification provides for additional Construction services that could not be initially foreseen due to field conditions encountered during construction.
EMERGENCY PROVISION: Emergency legislation is being requested to provide these services concurrently with the ongoing construction contract.
CC 329.16 CONTRACT MODIFICATIONS:
1. Amount of additional funds to be expended under this modification: $7,986.00.
2. The extent of additional services could not be initially foreseen due to field conditions 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.

Original contract amount $ 60,455.00
