PURPOSE:
Awarded by the BOC on December 8, 2020 for an amount not to exceed $2,667,722.56. This contract is part of DeKalb County's IGA with Gwinnett County in which all DeKalb County sewer flows currently discharging to Gwinnett County will be rerouted back to the DeKalb County sewer system. During the construction phase of this project, the following unforeseen conditions occurred: existing 24-inch force main that was needed for dewatering required more equipment; GDOT permit needed to be renewed; additional coordination with Gwinnett County was required for cutting and plugging the force main in their jurisdiction; and the installation method was revised. Increasing the contract term will allow for the completion of the work and the prevention of additional fees payable to Gwinnett County for DeKalb County sewage treatment.
