DISCUSSION
The City retained the firm of W. Koo and Associates to design the seismic
retrofits of First Street, Fifth Street, and McFadden Avenue bridges over
the Santa Ana River. On January 18, 2005, Council awarded a contract to
D. W Powell Construction, Inc. to perform the seismic retrofit
construction. As part of the construction, a geotechnical engineer is
required to monitor the foundation pile driving.
The original contract with W. Koo and Associates did not include the
monitoring of the pile driving. Therefore, an increase in the amount of
$30,000 to the contract is required to perform these services.
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT
In accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act, the
recommended action is not considered a CEQA proj ect . Therefore, no
environmental documentation is required.
