Background and Discussion:
The installation of a new live gas line under a privately owned road required an extension of the temporary bypass be added to work scope and took six days to complete. The contractor has experienced 16 days of inclement weather that has impacted the contractor's critical path. The modified work scope results in a net increase of $0 to the contract and 22 days added to the contract duration.

Expected Impact:
This RCA is required to complete the District construction contract under original or needed revised scope. Timely execution is appreciated in order to mitigate any potential delays from the contractor.

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.

Alignment with Goal(s):
_ Justice and Safety
_ Economic Opportunity
_ Housing
_ Public Health
_ Transportation
X Flooding
_ Environment
_ Governance and Customer Service
