The contract has been completed in substantial conformance with the plans and specifications approved by City Council. The project included in-place (trenchless) rehabilitation of approximately 17,000 linearfeet of 6 -inch diameter wastewater main, the rehabilitation of approximately 61 manholes and the reconnection of 452 wastewater laterals. The project also includes upsizing approximately 1,455 linearfeet of 6 -inch wastewater pipe to 8 -inch using pipe -bursting technology. The contract completion date was December 3, 2012. The final contract price was $1,225,222.05. The difference between the contract amount and the final contract price is mainly due to the following items totaling $365,793.80: • Council authorized Change Order No. 1 on March 7, 2012, which included additional rehabilitation of the wastewater pipes in Hutchins Street, from Lodi Avenue to Lockeford Street. Pipe diameters in this section of pipe range from 14 inches to 18 inches. ($272,582.55) • Change Order No. 2 which included installation of one additional 48 -inch manhole on Railroad Avenue and various additional lining locations. ($31,788.50) • Increase in unit bid item quantities installed. ($61,422.75) Following acceptance by the City Council, as required by law, the City Engineerwill file a Notice of Completion with the County Recorder's office. The notice serves to notify vendors and subcontractors that the project is complete and begins their 30 -day period to file a stop notice requiring the City to withhold payments from the prime contractor in the event of a payment dispute. FISCAL IMPACT: Completion of this projectwill reduce future maintenance costs and increase the performance and reliability of the wastewater system. FUNDING AVAILABLE: This project was funded by Wastewater Main Replacement Fund (171680). F.
