Background Information:
On April 7, 2020 the Main Lift Station Force Main Replacement Project was awarded to Cash Construction Company in the amount of $9,286,059.00. Scope of work included the replacement of two 20” concrete force mains with two 24” PVC force mains, a reclaimed water bulk filling station, an underground electric duct bank, six storm sewer crossings and a 5’x5’ box culvert along River Road.
Council approved Change Order No. 1 on May 19 that lowered the cost of the contract in the amount of $2,936,550.96 due to the removal of the electrical ductbank from the project due to a lack of electrical funds.
Change Order No. 2 will add a diversion channel originally proposed with the Blanco Gardens Drainage Improvement project. This channel will add 500 cfs capacity to convey overflows from the Blanco River. The stormwater scope of work for this project is scheduled to be complete by October 21, 2020. The remaining items including the reclaimed water bulk filling station and force mains are scheduled to be complete by early 2021.
