The Water Treatment Plant Expansion has begun construction of the 1.4 MG ground storage tank ring beam foundation and yard piping and piping modifications for the new high service vertical March 8, 2005 (3:30PM) turbine pumps located outside and the high service horizontal centrifugal pumps located in the filter gallery basement. Items addressed in Change Order #1 will both correct problems encountered during construction and address urgent plant repairs that are advantageous to pursue during the current construction activities. A brief description of each item is listed below. Item One Modifications to existing 36" yard piping are needed for additional fittings. The plans showed a "wye" fitting which was determined not to exist after the area around the fitting was uncovered. A new fitting will be added to connect the existing yard piping to the new yard piping for the new ground storage tank at a cost of $3,709.00. One additional working day will be added to the contract time to install the extra fitting and yard piping. Item Two A new Caustic Soda Tank is proposed to replace the existing tank because of severe cracking of the existing tank. Caustic soda is a highly corrosive chemical that requires special handling and storage. The existing tank has already been refurbished once but the repairs were inadequate to prevent further cracking and leakage. The existing tank currently cannot be filled to its normal level without leaking. The new tank was not part of the original scope of the construction contract. The replacement was added to the scope of the change order to expedite the replacement before heavy water demand creates operational problems with chemical storage. The total cost of replacing the tank is $38,643.00. One additional working day will be added to the contract time to install the new tank. Item Three Additional thrust blocks are proposed for the piping in the filter gallery basement to provide an added factor of safety against a failure of the existing piping inside the building. The additional thrust blocking will ensure that the existing piping will not fail causing a flooding condition in the filter gallery basement with the potential to shutdown the water plant. The total cost of this item is $1,148.00. Item Four A new 20" gate valve is proposed to replace a non -working 20" butterfly valve located on the discharge header for the high service pumps. The existing 20" butterfly valve was discovered to be non -working during a plant shutdown for new connections to the existing discharge header. This condition caused other valves outside the plant to be closed in order to isolate the 20" water main and resulted in a labor intensive and lengthy operation to dewater and then pressure up the 20" water line. The total cost of the valve replacement is $13,458.00. One additional working day will be added to the contract time to install the new valve. March 8, 2005 (3:16PM) Item Five The tank ring beam design will be modified from the original 5' beam depth to a revised 4' beam depth. The revised depth is acceptable since solid rock was encountered providing an excellent foundation bearing capacity without additional excavation. The total credit for this change in the design is <$709,00>. Item Six Additional fittings for the vertical turbine pump discharge line are needed to compensate for an elevation difference between the plans and the actual elevation of the existing discharge header. Because the header is buried this condition was not known until the area around the discharge header was uncovered. The total cost for the additional fittings is $2,596.00.
