Project: WPCF Chlorination Building Upgrade <br /> Change Order No. 05 <br /> Change Order Effective Date: September 20, 2020 <br /> Inside the 96-inch manhole, weld the stainless-steel washers to the stainless-steel restraint straps. <br /> This shall be done at all washers on all interior restraints. <br /> Backfill and compact around the manhole and restore the crushed rock trail/road. Spread topsoil <br /> along the sides of the trail/road. Place erosion control matting over the topsoil and hand broadcast <br /> grass seed. <br /> Increases the Contract Amount by$141,760.16. <br /> JUSTIFICATION: <br /> Item No. 14:A 24-inch culvert, passing through the dike between Smith Island and the Snohomish <br /> River, was failing.This allowed river water to flow onto Smith Island during high tides and hindered <br /> the drainage of water from Smith Island during low tides. The failing culvert had caused a sinkhole to <br /> develop in the dike causing a public safety hazard as well as a dike stability risk. The location of the <br /> culvert was adjacent to the FEN outfall manhole worksite that was part of the WPCF FEN Chlorination <br /> Building Upgrade Project.The City's Contractor on the WPCF FEN Chlorination Building Upgrade <br /> Project had the experience, manpower and equipment to excavate and expose the ends of the <br /> culvert and to install an 18-inch liner pipe through the failing culvert. City Drainage Crews then <br /> installed a tide gate on the river side of the liner pipe. <br /> Bid Item No. 14 compensates the Contractor for the additional work required to install the liner pipe <br /> through the failing culvert and make repairs to the dike. <br /> Item No. 15:The per plan 48-inch effluent pipe was not restrained at the new outfall manhole. As a <br /> result, the pipe pulled out of the manhole approximately%-inch.This caused a leak around the 48- <br /> inch effluent pipe. Due to pressure inside the outfall manhole, some of the joints between the <br /> manhole sections had separated, causing leaks.Temporary repairs were made last January; however, <br /> long term repairs were required. <br /> The City's Contractor proposed a concept to cast a concrete sleeve around the manhole. The <br /> concrete sleeve would seal the leaking joints and provide a location to restrain the 48-inch effluent <br /> pipe.The City's design Engineers, refined the Contractor's concept by adding a diameter for the <br /> repair sleeve. Our Engineers also specified reinforcing steel and concrete requirements. <br /> Bid Item No. 15 compensates the Contractor for the additional work required to provide long term <br /> repairs to the FEN outfall manhole. <br /> CONTRACT TIME: Change Order No. 5 adds ten calendar days to the contract time. <br /> Page 4 of 4 <br />
