This project contains Special Waste Disposal Allowance for handling and treating lead contaminated ground water of
$100,000 and a dewatering allowance of $50,000. The project also included a contingency of $51,253. Prior to beginning
construction, the District requested a dewatering plan and a plan for handling contaminated ground water. The District also
requested, reviewed, and agreed with the contractor on time and material costs for both these items along with an estimated
time frame to complete this work. After reviewing this proposal, it is estimated that this work will cost approximately
$200,000 to complete leaving the project no contingency for unforeseen conditions prior to beginning construction.
We are requesting an additional $100,000 to cover unforeseen conditions while constructing this project. If the additional
funding is needed, the work will be tracked on a time and material basis.
