BACKGROUND The City Council awarded Getdown Underground the contract for the 2000 Sewer Rehabilitation Project on May 24, 2000 . Construction began June 5, 2000 and was substantially completed July 28, 2000 . The project consisted of the installation of a new 24 inch diameter storm sewer on Royal Boulevard and the localized replacement of sanitary sewers at eight locations throughout the City. Getdown Underground has completed the contract in compliance with the plans and specifications as verified by engineering staff. Change Order No. 1 provides for the net deduction in the amount of $1, 747 . 54 for existing contract pay items and the addition of five new contract pay items totaling $18, 440 . 00 . The net value of Change Order No. 1 is therefore an increase of $16, 692 . 46. City Council was provided information about this additional work in the July 28, 2000 Friday Memo. The new pay items are for additional work necessary to complete installation of the 24 inch storm sewer on Royal Boulevard. During installation of the storm sewer, the contractor encountered extremely poor soil conditions . The poor soil conditions, in conjunction with the depth of the sewer (approximately 20 feet) resulted in the contractor not being able to control the width of the trench excavation as would be anticipated under normal soil conditions . The poor soils were not anticipated by staff nor was information about soil conditions provided in the bid documents . The new pay items consist of additional backfill ($6, 760 . 00) to fill the excavated trench, the replacement of two brick water valve vaults that collapsed during C.O. No. 1/2000 Sewer Rehabilitation December 1, 2000 Page 2 excavation ($3, 400 . 00) , the repair of an existing manhole that partially collapsed ($805 . 00) , the repair to an existing water main that broke during excavation ($1, 100 . 00) , and the addition of a 72 inch diameter manhole to route the storm sewer away from existing utilities that were being impacted due to the width of the trench ($6, 375 . 00) .
