Future commercial developments near the I-80 Interchange at Kanesville Boulevard will require sanitary sewer improvements. 

The proposed sewer will tie into the existing sanitary sewer on the west side of the BNSF railroad tracks south of Kanesville Boulevard, and extend to the east just west of the I-80 westbound on-ramp.  This will provide service to the open ground at the southwest quadrant of the I-80 Interchange.

During the bore operation, a large area of hard rock was encountered near Mosquito Creek, approximately 50 feet below the surface.  This was an unknown site condition.  Boring through rock requires special bore heads and equipment that were not part of the original project.  There are no other viable alternatives to extend the sanitary sewer across, or under Mosquito Creek.  The additional cost to bore through the rock is the most economical solution to complete the project. 

The revised total for the project, including C.O. #1 is $1,545,198.25.  This amount will be considered the new contract amount for any future changes to the project.

The project was included in the FY24 CIP with ARPA identified as the funding source.  ARPA Revenue Loss funds have been authorized for the engineering and construction costs of the project.

Approval of this resolution to approve Change Order #1 for the Kanesville Sanitary Sewer Extension project.
