My discussion in December 2006 with Rick Trice reviewed the tasks and confirmed the city's acknowledgement of the tasks performed and the product delivered to the City. Item 1. Baseline Survey: Overtime amount of$5,189.00(delta) for permanent survey staff is acceptable to both the CFW Department of Engineering Staff and Huitt-Zollars, Inc. In addition,two summer interns logged overtime, totaling $5,330.10. HZ requests compensation for half of this amount or $2,665.00. Total revised compensation request for Baseline Survey is $7,854.00. Impact $ 7,854.00 Item 2. Rough Grading Packages: Rough Grading Packages—To accommodate a City commitment to "have dirt flying"by December 2005, early start packages of Rough Grading Phase I and Phase II were identified and added to our scope. Creating two additional packages for review and then advertising and bidding takes effort. The goal was met. Impact $ 3,500.00 Liam Conlon HUIT MOLM March 1, 2007 Page 2 Item 3. Miscellaneous Roadway Alignment Changes: After exercising an approval process for the Arborlawn roadway to set the alignment,the road continued to move for various reasons. First changes were made on the east end to accommodate the landowner. Changes were made to the western section to meet the clearance requirements for the Big Tree. Design proceeded through the rough grading packages. After the contractor had been selected for the rough grading packages, an additional change was made on the west end at the intersection with Bryant Irvin Road for both location of intersection and addition of free right turn lane. As we understand this,the change was landowner and development driven. Please note that tasks associated with this item spanned a time period from Dec. 2005 through early March 2006. Following Phase II contract award, a plan profile sheet for 24" and 72" RCP culverts at stations 25+50 and 32+00 respectively was requested by DOE and provided. Following the Feb. 27th pre-con meeting, a spot elevation plan revision detailing right turn lane transition and island was prepared to accommodate DOE Survey Staff staking request. These additional items were overlooked in the March 20, 2006 scope variance/additional task letter. HZ requests the original impact amount of$13,208 for tasks associated with Item 3., Alignment Changes. Impact $13,208.00 Item 4. Survey-Land Parcels/Slope Easements: Survey was also impacted by the change at the intersection at Bryant Irvin Road since the land parcels and slope easement had already been done and had to be redone. This effort also included park land documents and exhibits for the park buffer. Impact $ 3,831.38 Item 5. Rough Grade Excavation Check: An additional task, Item 5,rough grade excavation check was requested by DOE following excavation by contractor. DOE Survey Crews cross-sectioned excavated roadway along entire alignment for Rough Grade Contracts Phases I and II. HZ compared design and survey cross-section data for the 5,600 ft. stretch of roadway.
