Body
BACKGROUND
The original project includes reconstruction of Runway 13R/31L, reconfiguration of taxiway connectors, and reconstruction of Taxiway C from Taxiway D to the 31L approach end (Phase I). The project will also include improvements to the existing drainage and storm water control system, replacement of airfield lighting, improvements to communications pathways and Aircraft Rescue and Firefighting roadway system and portion of the Vehicle Service Road.
Change Order No. 1 authorized funding to extend the runway closure duration by an additional 30 days to accommodate the additional scope added to the project to comply with the Federal Aviation Administration requirements. The change order also addressed changes in material quantities.
Change Order No. 2 authorized funding for construction changes due to additional work associated with storm drainage infrastructure, airfield lighting, concrete pavement section and pavement markings. Change Order No. 2 also adjusted the contract calendar days due to inclement weather experienced on the project.
This action will authorize Change Order No. 3 to the construction services contract for construction changes due to additional work associated with unforeseen work not reasonably within the scope of the contract documents. This work includes removal of contaminated soils, additional boring, trenching, conduit installation and concrete panel removal/replacement to address unforeseen utility conditions and conflicts, and additional aircraft recovery services required due to the delay of opening Runway 13R-31L.
Change Order No. 3 also adjusts the contract calendar days due to inclement weather experienced on the project.
