SUMMARY:
This Resolution awards a change order to Myers and Sons Construction for Project No.
17-096A (WW1706) James R. DiIorio Water Reclamation Facility 2017 Process
Improvements Project. Myers and Sons Construction will replace the second digester lid
while on site for the 2017 Process Improvement Project, providing a cost reduction,
capitalizing on the recent experience of design and construction personnel on the
digester cover in the original contract.
PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION
:
Resolution No. 13956 awarded the 2017 Process Improvement Project for the James R.
DiIorio Water Reclamation Facility to Myers and Sons Construction, on April 23, 2018.
BACKGROUND
:
This change order will allow the replacement of the aged and failing Digester No.1 lid.
Digester No.2 lid replacement was included in the 2017 Process Improvement Project
and Myers and Sons Construction was the lowest of the bids for the digester lid
replacement. Digester No.2 had failed and required an emergency short term repair to
be done in 2017. Digester No.1 lid was installed at the same time as Digester No. 2
and is in similar condition. Proceeding with the second digester lid will allow the city to
utilize the existing design to minimize engineering and manufacturing costs, in addition
to eliminating mobilization fees. This project is vital to the smooth operation of
treatment processes at the James R. DiIorio Water Reclamation Facility.
FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS
:
Funds are available from the Sewer User Funds
BOARD/COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION
:
Not applicable
STAKEHOLDER PROCESS
:
None
ALTERNATIVES
:
Alternative No. 1 – No Action
In the event of no action being taken, equipment could potentially fail and lead to the
inability to sufficiently treat wastewater causing the City to be in noncompliance of state
requirements and cause serious health and safety issues to the public.
RECOMMENDATION
:
Approval of the Resolution.

Subject: 17-096 JRD WRF Additional Digester Cover
Dear Naomi:
The 2017 Upgrades and Rehab Project at the James R. Dilorio Water Reclamation Facil-
ity is nearing completion of the Digester No.2 cover replacement.The project team pro-
poses to add a second digester cover replacement to the existing 17-096 contract as a
change order.Adding this item to the existing contract will maximize value for the City in
the following ways:
• Meeting the needs of the facility for a second digester cover replacement
• Enabling the City to procure long lead time equipment in time to complete the
budgeted work in 2019
• Avoiding a lengthy re-bid process for both the Contractor and the Manufac-
turer, and minimizing Engineering costs to produce bid packages and provide
bidding services
• Leveraging existing design and contract documents to minimize engineering
and manufacturer costs
• Utilizing a contractor who is already onsite to eliminate mobilization fees
• Capitalizing on the recent experience of design and construction personnel on
the Digester No.2 cover replacement for a more efficient schedule with fewer
unexpected costs
In partnership with the JRD WRF staff, Brown and Caldwell has compiled cover installa-
tion cost estimates from Myers and Sons Construction (Contractor)and cover supply es-
timates from WesTech (Manufacturer),who were awarded the competitive bids for this
work on the 17-096.These installation and supply costs represent competitive pricing
for the scope.
The Myers and Sons Construction quote in Attachment 1 shows a cost reduction of ap-
proximately$140,000 for installation of the second digester cover compared to the orig-
inal
rifiinal bid for the first cover installation.
Attachment 2 includes WesTech's quote for the supply of the second cover,which has a
cost increase of approximately$20,000.While WesTech has offered a deduct of approx-
imately$8000 from the original bid for reduced design time,their overall cost has

increased by approximately 18 percent.The increase is mostly tied to a 22%increase in
steel prices since the original bid, a factor that would similarly impact any supplier.At-
tachment 3 is included to document the justification for this increase.
Table 1 provides a summary of the estimated difference in cost between our proposed
change order approach vs. re-bidding this work.
Table 1-Summary of Anticipated Costs
Proposed Change Order Method Re-bid Method Difference
Installation $868,728 $1,000,000 ($131,272)
Equipment $205,556 $210,000 ($4,444)
Engineering $5,000 $30,000 ($25,000)
Totals $1,079,284 $1,240,000 ($160,716)
Please note that the estimated values for the"Re-Bid Method"are based on best infor-
mation from the previously completed competitive bids. Installation and equipment fig-
ures for the"Proposed Change Order Method" are known costs from the quotes.
Based on the estimated costs, Brown and Caldwell is confident that adding the supply
and installation of a second digester cover to the 17-096 contract as a change order is
the most economical mechanism to complete the work. Please confirm that you are in
agreement with this proposed change order approach for completing this work.
Sincerely,
Brown and Caldwell
