ITEM 5: CONSIDERATION AND APPROPRIATE ACTION RELATING TO A REQUEST
FOR AN AMENDMENT TO THE ENGINEERING CONTRACT FOR THE
DESIGN OF THE NORTH OWASSO WASTEWATER COLLECTION SYSTEM
IMPROVEMENTS.
Mr Carr said that the OPWA approved an agreement for engineering design services with
HUB+Garver on March 17, 1998 for North Owasso Wastewater Collection System
Improvements. The project consisted of eliminating the 106t" St lift station and construction of
approximately 7200 LF of 15-inch and 18-inch gravity sewer to connect to the Ranch Creek
Interceptor. Construction of the project was awarded to Sapulpa Digging on June 15, 1999 and
is nearing completion. The 106t" St lift station was removed from service on November 10,
1999. Although the purpose of the North Owasso Interceptor was to eliminate the 106t" St lift
station and problems connected with inadequate lift station pumping, increasing collection
system capacity north of the station location is also needed. Bypasses have been documented on
N Mingo Rd at locations adjacent to Hillside Addition due largely to limited capacity in the
smaller diameter collection system. Engineering services previously performed by HUB+Garver
did not include the area north of the 106"' St lift station along N Mingo Rd. An extension of
approximately 5175 LF is needed and engineering services will need to be performed for the
additional work. Amendment # 1 to the original engineering agreement provides for the
additional services. Mr Larry Worley, a resident of the affected area, voiced his concerns about
the bypasses and his understanding that the work already performed should take care of the
problem. Following discussion, Mr Williams moved, seconded by Dr Bode, to approve
Amendment #1 to the Agreement for Engineering Services for the North Owasso Wastewater
Collection System Improvements with HUB+Garver, Tulsa, OIL, in the lump sum amount of
$ 15,520, and authorization for the Chair to execute the amendment.
