Res15.24 Award CIP 10883 2020-1-22.pdf
Rationale: This work is being done under an emergency declaration issued on October 29, 2019. This is to contain a fuel oil spill, conduct immediate remediation, file all paperwork with governing agencies and replace the existing failed tank and appurtenances.

The corrective work was designed and overseen by Eisenbach & Ruhnke Engineering, P.C. Site work was originally anticipated to be completed in April 2020 but due to primarily to an unexpectedly higher amount of soil remediation and the effects of the COVID19 pandemic the work could not be completed as scheduled.

Added time is required of E&R to ensure that the increased remediation work and filing with the NYSDEC and the WCDOH are in compliance. This is an upset estimate. Actual hours use will be billed against and not to exceed this amount. The fees charged for enhanced construction administration are less than that anticipated from a third party construction management arrangement. This is the second amendment. The first merely transferred this assignment to a new contract number with no changes to the terms.
