EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
On February 27, 2018, the Department of Public Works entered into an agreement with Hanford ARC for Oak Mitigation Services on the Cole Creek at Soda Bay Rd and Highland Creek at Highland Springs Rd Bridge Replacement Projects in Lake County, CA.
During design of the oak mitigation plans it was determined that off-site planting would be required. In order to proceed with off-site plating the project will need a supplemental Archaeological Survey Report (ASR) and a supplemental Historic Properties Survey Report (HPSR) of the offsite planting area. Staff has received concurrence from Caltrans on the additional cost of Hanford ARC's services.
Amendment One provides for the additional time, effort and cost of performing the work and increases the contract amount by $8,587.26 to a new not to exceed total of $351,034.23.
The Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) and Caltrans offer Federal Highway Bridge Program (HBP) funds and California Toll Credit funds to eligible projects such as this project.
