ITEM 5: CONSIDERATION AND APPROPRIATE ACTION RELATING TO A REQUEST
FOR TRUSTEE APPROVAL OF AMENDMENT #1 TO AN AGREEMENT
BETWEEN THE OWASSO PUBLIC WORKS AUTHORITY AND GARVER
ENGINEERS FOR ENGINEERING SERVICES FOR THE OWASSO
WASTEWATER TREATMENT PLAN EXPANSION (PHASE II).
Mr Carr said that the OPWA approved a contract with Garver Engineers on February 2, 1999 for
engineering design services for expansion and improvements to the wastewater treatment plant.
The scope of work defined at that time detailed work tasks to perform engineering services under
one phase of construction. Because of extreme accumulation of solids at the treatment plant, the
project was divided into two sub -phases. The first portion of the plant expansion was completed
in March 2001. Some adjustments to the original engineering fee allocation have occurred as a
result of phasing the project. Engineering fees for preliminary design and final design were split
between both phases. Bidding, construction services, a majority of resident inspection and O&M
manual preparation fees were expanded during the construction of Phase IIA. Bidding,
construction services and resident inspection will be needed for Phase IIB. Garver Engineers has
provided an amendment to the original agreement reflecting the fees for the additional work in
an amount not to exceed $179,950. Sufficient funds have been budgeted in the OW" SRF loan
for the additional services. Mr Williams moved, seconded by Mr Brogdon, to approve
Amendment #1 to an agreement with Garver Engineers for services related to Phase IIB of the
expansion of the wastewater treatment plant, in an amount not to exceed $179,950.
