Request Summary (Agenda Caption):
title
Request for approval of change in contract No. 2 with Environmental Allies, Inc., for the Morningside Place Drainage Project, adding 10 calendar days (Clear Creek Watershed, Bond ID F-01, Project ID A135-01-00-E001, Job No. 23/0025, Precinct 1, MWDBE Contracted Goal: 22%, MWDBE Current Participation: 35.1%).

Background and Discussion:
The purpose of this contract modification is to add 10 days to the project schedule to replace an improperly installed pipe with a high density polyethylene pipe (HDPE) solid and profile wall pipe. To offset the cost of the new item, approximately 25 LF of 8'x5' Reinforced Concrete Box will be deducted for a net $0 change.
Expected Impact:
This change will allow the contractor to construct the project so that Harris County can realize intended flood risk reduction benefits.
Alternative Options:
This is an active construction contract, so there are not many alternatives to approving a change order other than cancelling the contract which is not recommended as doing so would substantially delay the remaining work in the construction contract.
