Title
Reinforced Concrete Pipe Main Inspection and Assessment Program - Engineering Services Amendment - WS85508001 (Ordinance S-51697) - Citywide
Description
Request to authorize the City Manager, or his designee, to execute an amendment to Agreement 151695 with Black & Veatch Corporation to provide additional engineering services for the Reinforced Concrete Pipe Main Inspection and Assessment Program Project. Further request to authorize execution of amendments to the agreement as necessary within the Council-approved authority as provided below.
Report
Summary
The purpose of this Project is to continue with a multi-year inspection and assessment program to inspect and assess the condition of approximately 228 miles of reinforced concrete, cast iron, concrete cylinder ductile iron pipes, and other material types of water transmission mains that vary in age throughout the conveyance system.
This amendment is necessary to understand condition, improve system resilience, and identify leaks before major breaks occur. Extending the contract will allow for the continuation of the program using already encumbered funds and hold the program in place until there is a budget for a new inspection and assessment program. This amendment will provide additional time to the agreement.
Contract Term
The term of the agreement amendment is two years from the issuance of the Notice to Proceed. Work scope identified and incorporated into the agreement prior to the end of the term may be agreed to by the parties, and work may extend past the termination of the agreement. No additional changes may be executed after the end of the term.
Financial Impact
No additional funding is needed for this amendment.
