Hernando Beach dredging consultant asks for extra payments
Project Updates - February 5, 2010
Hernando Today reports that a dredging consultant working on the Hernando Beach project, Halcrow Inc, has submitted two change orders totaling US$794,130 to complete operations at Hernando Beach.
The delay in the start-up of dredging operations has affected the overall construction schedule, according to a memo sent late Wednesday from Halcrow to Director of Public Works Susan Goebel.
Hernado Today said the first change order from Halcrow is for US$634,300. In a memo, Halcrow said it needs the extra money to complete on-site seagrass mitigation and to institute a series of de-watering systems mandated by the Florida Department of Environmental Protection.
In a separate request, Halcrow is asking for commissioners' approval for an eighth change order totaling US$159,830 to cover the costs of seagrass monitoring.
Instead of calling it a change order, Halcrow calls it a "supplemental agreement."
Halcrow is projecting the completion of the dredge project to be the end of May rather than the originally agreed-upon date of mid-March.
