<br />that were collapsing. This pipe was made out of corrugated metal and had other sections that had
<br />already failed and were repaired in the past. Mr. Henthorn stated Underground Services was
<br />hired on am emergency basis to repair the collapsed sections and replace the remaining sections
<br />of corrugated metal pipe. The pipe is located behind several homes and it was found to be more
<br />economical to replace the remaining corrugated metal pipe at this time because of the restoration
<br />cost to the home owner's lawns. Therefore, Mr. Henthorn requested that the Board ratify the
<br />award of the emergency repair to Underground Services, 225 South Lafayette Boulevard, South
<br />Bend, Indiana 46601, in the amount of $50,344.27. Upon a motion by Mr. Inks, seconded by

<br />of possible collapse and contamination of Bowman Creek. HRP Construction, 5777 Cleveland
<br />Road, Post Office Box 266, South Bend, Indiana 46624, was hired on an emergency basis and
<br />repaired the pipe while the sewer remained in service. Mr. Nichols requested the Board ratify the
