SUBJECT AMENDMENT OF CONTRACT TO MATERIALS ANALYTICAL SERVICES, INC. FOR
ENVIRONMENTAL LABORATORY SERVICES FOR PROJECT XL
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council authorize the City Manager to execute an amendment to City
Secretary Contract No. 26683 with Materials Analytical Services, Inc. to increase the not-to-exceed
amount from $25,000 to $40,000 in connection with Project XL.
DISCUSSION:
On March 27, 2001 (M&C C-18519), the City Council approved award of a contract to Materials
Analytical Services, Inc. for the provision of environmental laboratory services in connection with Phase
I of Project XL, the demolition of 2615 Ennis Avenue.
During the week of April 23 through 27, 2001, the Phase I demolition property (2615 Ennis Avenue)
was torn down, and during the process some 69 air samples were taken and sent to the lab for testing.
Due to variable weather conditions, the volume of air Collected through the samplers was less than
expected. As a result, the laboratory must increase the number of readings for each sample in order to
reach the detection level set by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). In order to get the results
the EPA desires, the lab must look harder for asbestos in the samples submitted, which will require
additional effort and analysis levels. The increased cost is approximately $200 per sample.
The demolition cost was nearly $20,000 less than what was originally estimated, therefore this contract
increase does not require additional funds for the project's total cost of $69,900.
The provisions of Chapter 252 of the Texas Local Government Code do not apply because this is a
"procurement necessary to preserve or protect the public health or safety of the municipality's
residents."
An MNVBE subcontracting goal for this contract amendment does not apply.
FISCAL INFORMATION/CERTIFICATION:
The Finance Director certifies that funds are available in the operating budget, as appropriated, of the
Environmental Management Project Fund.
