Memorandum
Date: January 14, 2025
To: The Honorable Lake County Board of Supervisors
From: Lars Ewing, Public Services Director
Subject: Approve Amendment One to the Agreement between the County of Lake and SCS Engineers for Construction Quality Assurance Services for the Eastlake Landfill Phase One Cell Construction Project for a revised total of $577,478, and authorize the Chair to sign
Executive Summary:
In March of 2024 your Board of Supervisors approved an agreement with SCS Engineers to perform construction quality assurance services for the Eastlake Landfill Phase One Cell Construction project. SCS' scope of work is to complete the tasks identified in the State-approved construction quality assurance (CQA) plan for the project, which includes construction administration, construction inspection, laboratory testing, land surveying, and preparation of a final construction certification report. The agreement is attached for reference.
Construction of the new cell is nearly complete, under a separate construction contract with Rege Construction. However, the scope of the project expanded from the initial design, most notably the addition of an underdrain system along the entire cell floor area, as well as enhanced perimeter storm drain erosion control measures. In June 2024 these items were added to Rege's construction contract through a change order approved by your Board. The increased scope and duration of construction subsequently resulted in an increase to SCS' time and expense to perform the mandated CQA services. With the scope and duration now established, staff and SCS negotiated the attached amendment to their agreement, which adds $169,272 to the original agreement amount of $408,206 for a revised total of $577,478. Sufficient funding is included in the FY 2024-25 Integrated Waste Management budget.
