Bradford, Village Manager FROM: Thomas C. Hall, Water System Manager in DATE: June 17, 1993 SUBJECT: Water Main Painting/Replacement (Bridge Crossings) On April 5, 1993, Sealed Bids were received and opened relative to the above project. As you know, this Bid contained an alternate bid item for joint participation by ENCON for a force main replacement on Tequesta Drive Bridge. Fortunately, low bid was favorable to Tequesta, but the alternate bid exceeded budget limitations of ENCON and they, therefore, rejected their portion of the Bid. After some lengthy delays, qualifications of low bidder have been reviewed by the Engineering firm of Reese, Macon & Associates and bid award is recommended to TLC Diversified of West Palm Beach in the amount of $147, 806. A bid tabulation is attached. This project consists of two tasks, one, beings removal and replacement of our ten inch ( 10" ) Water Main on the hbrth side of Tequesta Drive Bridge and two, chemical stripping and painting of our twenty inch (20" ) Water Main on the Alternate AIA Bridge. Both of these projects are vital to ensuring continued uninterruptible water service to the customers of our Water System and I recommend presentation to Council for their approval on June 24, 1993.

Hall, Water Department Manager RE: Water Main Painting/Maintenance Dear Mr. Hall: On April 5, 1993 at 2:00 P.M. we'received 4 bids on the referenced project. A tabulation of the results is presented below. Contractor Base Bid Additive Item TLC Diversified $147,806 $103,000 Murray Logan $153,500 $ 76,800 Florida Design $188,915 $ 92,203 Marine Engineering $349,586 $101,425 You will recall, the base bid covers the Tequesta work and the additive item was for Encon's force main. Encon has elected not to award this work. We have investigated the qualifications of the low bidder to perform this work and believe they have satisfied the intent of the documents in this regard. It must be noted that there are pending new rules which will.impact this type of work. The • consensus is that the rules, when promulgated, will increase costs. The rules are not currently available and at this time a schedule for implementation is unknown. There is a risk that, when issued, the rules could impact this project, even though it is currently under construction. The effect could be to force the contractor to adopt different measures concerning lead, and increase costs. We feel the probability of the rules being adopted during this construction period is low and the chance that they would be applied to work already under contract is even lower. This opinion is based on typical environmental rule making processes. However, we obviously cannot guarantee this will not occur. The Village can elect to award at this time or reject all bids and re-bid after 9121 N. Military Trail • Suite 207 • Palm Beach Gardens, Florida 33410 Ph.
