filings with the State, a final project expenditure report will be presented to City Council. GSE expenditures are summarized in Attachment 1. BACKGROUND On January 16, 2018, City Council awarded the construction of the Recycled Water Infrastructure Expansion, Phase 1A — Ken Mercer Sports Park Booster Station Project, CIP No. 14126, to GSE Construction Company, Inc. for $322,800, and approved the total project budget of $381,661 . As presented to City Council, the project is largely funded through the State's Clean Water State Revolving Fund (65 percent) and Proposition 1 B grant (35 percent). The total project budget included a contingency in the amount of $33,000. The Director of Engineering was authorized to approve and execute any required contract change orders up to an amount equal to the contingency. On March 19, 2019, City Council approved a change order for GSE to construct seven debris strainers installed in the recycled water main immediately before the water meters that service Ken Mercer Sports Park and Tennis and Community Park. The additional $220,000 (change order plus contingency) of work was funded from the Parks CIP Reserve Fund 518. DISCUSSION GSE installed the prefabricated recycled water booster station and associated piping. etc. for a total of $579,618. The contractor completed the work in fall 2018, but the project was held open awaiting resolution of permanent power from PG&E. During the PG&E delay, City staff observed that the irrigation system in both Ken Mercer Sports Park and Tennis and Community Park was experiencing plugging from debris in the recycled water. Seven debris strainers were added to the project to address the plugging problems with the park irrigation systems. The project was delayed by PG&E for several reasons beyond the City's control. Due to the continued delays, the station was started and tested on generator power in December of 2018. The station has not been in service since. PG&E is now scheduled to install permanent power starting September 4, 2019. The project had seven change orders, including a final balancing change order, for a total of $256,818. This includes $206,311 for the installation of the strainers funded out of Parks CIP Reserve Fund 518. Most of the remaining change orders were associated with changes requested by PG&E, including conduit changes, increased vault sizes and meter cabinet changes. Staff recommends the transfer of the $13,689 remaining parks funds back to the Parks CIP Reserve Fund 518. GSE expenditures are summarized in Attachment 1. A total of $579,618 was expended, including $206,311 of non-eligible loan and grant work (filter strainers), leaving a total of $373,307 that can be billed to the loan and grant. The SWRCB approved Phase II of the project and is in the process of developing reimbursement paperwork for the City to invoice. There are expenditures associated with PG&E, and work performed outside of the GSE and Ranger Pipelines contracts, that the SWRCB will review to determine if the expenditures are eligible for reimbursement.
