AND CONTRA COSTA COUNTY FLOOD CONTROL AND WATER CONSERVATION
DISTRICT
FROM: J. MICHAEL WALFORD, CHIEF ENGINEER
DATE: APRIL 12, 1994
SUBJECT: AUTHORIZE THE AMENDMENT OF A PURCHASE ORDER TO PACIFIC GAS AND
ELECTRIC COMPANY FOR UTILITY RELOCATIONS, UPPER PINE CREEK PROJECT,
CONCORD. Project No.: 7520-668689
SPECIFIC REQUEST(S)OR RECOMMENDATION(S)& BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION
I. Recommended Action:
AUTHORIZE the amendment of an existing $60,000.00 purchase order to Pacific Gas and Electric
Company (PG&E), to increase the purchase order by $83,739.36, to a total amount of$143,739.36,
for the relocation of gas faci1lities for the Upper Pine Creek Project in the Concord area.
II. Financiallmpact:
The total relocation of $143,739.36 is reimbursable from the California Department of Water
Resources at the rate of 90.0%. The total 10.0% local share of$14,373.94 will be paid from Flood
Control Zone 3B (Project No. 7520-6B8689).
III. Reasons for Recommendations and Background:
By agreement with the United States Corps of Engineers (Corps), the Flood Control District was
required to relocate utility facilities necessary for construction of the Upper Pine Creek Project. The
required relocations included the gas facilities owned by PG&E on Treat Boulevard, Lane Drive and
San Miguel Road in Concord. On February 3, 1987, the Board authorized the initial purchase order
in the amount of $60,000, which was the estimated cost provided by PG&E. However, PG&E
encountered adverse site conditions, was forced to change their work scope due to unforeseen site
constraints and had to re-mobilize crews numerous times to accommodate the Corps' project. As
a result, the cost of the work was much higher than estimated.
a
IV. Consequences of Negative"Action:
The gas lines have already been relocated. We are required to pay actual costs. If the purchase
order is not amended for the increased amount, the Flood Control District will fail to meet its legal
obligation.
