RE: Amendment No. 3
Trinity Boulevard Water Main Extension
Contract 1 DOE 3600 and 5191
Original Water Project No. PI61-060161141050
Dear Mr. Chaubey,
We appreciate the opportunity to present this proposal for your consideration. Per the
request of the Water Department, this amendment revises the previously approved 36"water
main design plans. Additional water mains along Jiminsons Ln. and FM-157 are to be
connected to the existing system and the proposed 36"water main. Design effort for these
two additional water mains include; a subsurface utility investigation (SUE) survey for the
proposed 24" main along FM-157, alignment altematives, design of water mains, and
easement documentation. Re-design and revisions to the approved 36"water main plans
include; relocating valves per meetings with Field Operations and the Water Department for
new connections, additional details per the Water Department, water main realignments at
Greenbelt Rd and State Highway 360, and design and boundary survey for the realignment of
approximately 2000 If of approved alignment under Trinity Blvd and State Highway 360.
This amendment includes additional weekly meetings to be held with the Water Department,
Field Operations and the Department of Engineering for Contract 1 (Greenbelt Rd to Fm-157)
and Contract 2 (Fm-157 to SH 360). The meetings topics include dividing the project into
multiple construction phases to expedite the project completion, alternatives and
recommendations to connection the proposed 36"water to the existing system, relocating
gate valves, revising vertical alignment and obtaining additional comments from Water
Department.
Additional design issues include; surge protection and corrosion protection design. These
items were discussed in the proposal stage, but were not included into the original scope.
Surge protection is recommended to be included in the project due to the large pressure

COUNCIL ACTION: Approved on 4/25/2006
DATE: Tuesday, April 25, 2006
LOG NAME: 3030GREENBELT-T REFERENCE NO.: **C-21414
SUBJECT:
Authorize Execution of Amendment No. 3 to Engineering Agreement with TranSystems Corporation
Consultants, for Trinity Boulevard Water Main Extension from Greenbelt Road to State Highway 360
(City Project No. 00352)
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council authorize the City Manager to execute Amendment No. 3 to City
Secretary Contract No. 27574 with TranSystems Corporation Consultants, in the amount of $145,324.00 to
provide for additional engineering services, thereby increasing the contract amount to $600,939.00.
Subsequent amendments, if necessary, will be processed administratively, up to a $25,000.00 total.
DISCUSSION:
On March 19, 2002, (M&C C-18999) the City Council authorized the City Manager to execute an agreement
with TranSystems Corporation Consultants, in the amount of $379,195.00 for Trinity Boulevard Water Main
Extension Greenbelt Road to State Highway 360. The agreement provided for the design of a 36-inch water
main to ultimately provide additional water supply to the Centerport Area and surrounding areas. The
agreement was subsequently revised by two previous amendments totaling $76,420.00 as follows:
Amendment No. 1 on March 4, 2003, (M&C C-19500) in the amount of $51,600.00 provided for alternate
alignment studies because the originally selected alignment was determined to be in direct conflict with
several utilities whose existence were unknown until after design of the project was underway.
Amendment No. 2 on November 17, 2005, administratively approved by the City Manager, in the amount of
$24,820.00 provided for additional design survey on the project and the preparation of a permanent
easement.
Amendment No. 3 will address the following:
In order to increase the level of service to customers within the project area, the Water Department has
requested that interconnections be provided between the 36-inch main and several existing water mains in
the immediate vicinity. The interconnections will require the construction of 16 and 24-inch water mains
along State Highway 157 and Jimson Lane, respectively. To expedite construction of the project, it is
necessary to divide the project plans and specifications into two units.
This amendment will provide the necessary engineering services for the design of the identified connecting
water mains as well as the design of a corrosion protection system for the entire project. In addition, an
analysis will be performed to identify potential water surge in the new s stem arm etermine the
necessary strength requirements of the 36-inch water main to adequate yQdle su st{ s
