Change Order # I previously adjusted the contract approved by an <br />additional $4,788 for replacement of electrical conduit previously specified to be reused, and the <br />addition of an eye wash and safety shower in the dewatering building. During final start-up of <br />major equipment, it was discovered that the Engineer had specified the wrong pumps and motors <br />for the polymer system for the new belt filter presses. The COITect equipment was identified and <br />ordered, and has recently been installed and tested. <br /> <br />The Engineer has prepared Change Order #2 in the amount of$33,053.00 to replace two (2) <br />previously installed polymer feed pumps, piping and associated controls and electrical <br />modifications. These changes are necessary to allow the two (2) new belt filter presses to <br />properly function. The City is contractually bound to pay the Contractor for the new installation. <br />However, we will be meeting with the Engineer to establish the value of the original installation, <br />looking to the Engineer to reimburse the City for these costs, as design eITor is at fault. These <br />costs will be withheld from the Engineer's final payment. <br /> <br />Action Reauired bv Council: Approve ordinance authorizing the City Manager to execute <br />Change Order No.2 in the amount of $33,053.00. <br /> <br /> <br />P ---Ii -tY! <br /> <br />Date <br />
