This review and <br /> approval process is expected to be completed by late November of 2000. After the construction <br /> permit is issued by IEPA, possibly in December, the project will be advertised for bids. The bid <br /> award/ start of construction is expected in March, 2001. <br /> Befare construction starts, an agreement for construction phase engineering services will be <br /> required so that the City will be able to qualify for the low-interest State Revolving Loan <br /> Program. The City contracted with the engineering firm of Black & Veatch to design the nitrate <br /> treatment facility. For this reason, staff requested that Black & Veatch submit a proposal to <br /> provide the construction phase engineering services. Staff has negotiated an amendment with <br /> Black & Veatch to the contract for these services (copy attached). A proposal in a not-to-exceed <br /> amount of$525,000 was received from Black&Veatch. <br /> The following is a partial list of the services that will be provided: <br /> • Pre-construction meeting with the City and Contractor <br /> • Full-time Project Administration and Inspection <br /> • Processing of Change Orders <br />
