Summary & Background: This request is for an increase in spending authority for Sol Construction, LLC, to provide standby miscellaneous construction wastewater system services.

 

Scope of Work: The standby contracts consist of providing all labor, equipment, and materials necessary for the construction, installation, and repair of sewer mains, wastewater service lines, and projects associated with the spill mitigation program that reduces the inflow and infiltration of stormwater into the sanitary system within both North and South Fulton County service areas, as directed by Public Works staff.

On December 19
th  2023, Public Works authorized Sol Construction to install 2 major sanitary sewer force main replacements, specifically:

A) Sullivan #3 16-inch force main replacement - Date: 12-19-2023 

B) Sullivan #4 16-inch force main replacement - Date: 12-19-2023   

The referenced work started in December 2023 and Sullivan PS #4 was completed in July 2024. Because the work was completed in 2024, we are requesting additional spending authority to utilized funds that expired on December 31, 2023 to compensate Sol Construction for the completed work.

Community Impact: Wastewater repairs can be made expeditiously under the standby contracts which decreases the amount of time wastewater service may be interrupted to customers.

 

Department Recommendation: The Department of Public Works recommends approval of a spending authority increase.

 

Project Implications: Without the assistance of on-call, standby contractors, the amount of repair work that can be completed by Fulton County will be limited, especially in emergencies.

 

Community Issues/Concerns: No concerns have been raised to Public Works staff.

 

Department Issues/Concerns: Public Works does not have any concerns or issues.  The contractors have satisfactorily provided on-call wastewater construction services to Fulton County in the past.

 

Contract Modification:

 

(A)                     Sol Construction, LLC.
