Construction Company, 1216 West Sample Street, South Bend, Indiana indicating that the Contract
amount be increased $9,006.00 for a new Contract sum including this Change Order in the amount
of $2,389,225.55. Upon a motion made by Mr. Leszczynski, seconded by Mrs. Manier and carried,
the Change Order was approved.
APPROVE CHANGE ORDERS -_REMOVAL OF UNDERGROUND FUEL STORAGE TANKS -
PROJECT NO. 95-73
Mr. Leszczynski advised that Mr. Bob Allen, Public Construction Manager, has submitted the
following Change Orders on behalf of Knapp Environmental, 12875 McKinley Highway,
Mishawaka, Indiana, and recommended approval:
Change Order Amount New Contract Sum
Change Order #1 Increase $63,650.00 $102,925.00
Change Order #2 Increase $12,450.00 $110,500.00
Mr. Leszczynski noted that the Change Orders for the above referred to project involved the removal
of contaminated soil by leaking underground storage tanks at the Municipal Services Facility. The
initial contract amount was $39,275.00. Change Orders No. 1 and No. 2 would increase the contract
amount by $63,650.00 and $12,450.00, respectively, for an amended contract amount of
$110,500.00. The specifications for the project were based on the projection that there were 200 tons
of contaminated soil. As the project progressed, it was discovered that there were in excess of 2,000
tons. The discovery of additional contaminated soils within the purview of what was intended by
the unforeseeable circumstances exception to the 20% rule, as set by I.C. 36-1-12-18. A reasonable
inquiry to the amount of contaminated soil to be removed at the Municipal Services Facility led the
engineers to base the specifications on the removal of 200 tons of soil.
There is no change in the actual scope or intent of the contract. The contractor was hired to remove
the storage tanks and contaminated soil at MSF. These Change Orders contemplate only the
completion of that original task. These Change Orders do not involve work outside of the MSF, nor
does it involve any work unrelated to the removal of the underground storage tanks. The
circumstances necessitating these Change Orders were reasonably unforeseen by the City of South
Bend and its consultant. Since it will be cheaper and more efficient to proceed with this work with
Change Orders to the Contractor as opposed to seeking additional bids, it is a permissible exception
to I.C. 36-1-12-18. Therefore, upon a motion made by Mr. Leszczynski, seconded by Mrs. Manier
and carried, the Change Orders were approved.
