TO: BOARD OF SUPERVISORS , as the Governing Body of the Contra Costa County Flood
Control and Water Conservation District.
FROM: J. MICHAEL WALFORD, CHIEF ENGINEER
DATE: April 21 , 1987
SUBJECT: Approve Prior Modification of Agreement with Southern Pacific Pipe Lines, Inc.
for Relocation of Pipe Facilities, San Ramon Bypass Channel , Flood Control Zone
3B, Project No. 7520-6B8637.
Specific Requests or Recommendations & Background & Justification
I. RECOMMENDED ACTION:
APPROVE a prior modification to the agreement executed with Southern Pacific Pipe
Lines, Inc. on June 11, 1985 and AUTHORIZE the Public Works Director to execute the
modification allowing award of a contract on a Force Account basis for the relocation
of pipe facilities between Newell Avenue and Rudgear Road for the San Ramon Bypass
Channel .
II. FINANCIAL IMPACT:
The estimated cost for the recommended relocation of 3,250 feet of pipe line is
$180,000.00. This cost is reimbursable from the California Department of Water
Resources.
III. REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATION/BACKGROUND:
By Order of the Board of Supervisors on June 11, 1985 , an agreement with Southern
Pacific Pipe Lines, Inc. was approved for relocation of facilities necessary to
construct the San Ramon Bypass Channel . The terms of the agreement indicate that
relocation work will be awarded by competitive bid. It was anticipated that the
portion of the Southern Pacific Pipe Line facility between Sta. 632 + 90 and Sta. 665
+ 40 would not require relocation. However, initial grading operations by the Corps
of Engineers' contractor have revealed soil conditions indicating a need for
relocation.
Approval of the modification to the agreement will allow Southern Pacific Pipe Lines
to proceed immediately with the relocation work on a force account basis and avoid
the four to five week delay required for bidding. The modification will also relieve
Southern Pacific Pipe Lines from liability for damage to trees resulting from the
relocation of the oil pipe line.
VI. CONSEQUENCES OF NEGATIVE ACTION
Failure to approve the supplement to the agreement will add four to five weeks to the
relocation process and will result in the Flood Control District's exposure to claims
for delay of the Corps of Engineers' contractor.
