CITY OF SAN BERNARDINO - REQUEST FOR COUNCIL ACTION
STAFF REPORT
Subject:
Authorize the Director of Development Services to execute Contract Change Order No. One with
L.A. Builders, Inc. Inc. for Segment 3 Sewer Line Relocation I-215 (SWO8-08), per Project Plan
No. 11916.
Background:
In February of 2008 Caltrans began construction of widening the I-215 Freeway through the City
of San Bernardino. Segment 3 is the first phase of the I-215 widening and it extends-from Orange
Show Road to Rialto Avenue.
Caltrans determined that certain City owned sewer mains in Inland Center Drive, "I" Street,
Walkinshaw Street, and several alleys were in conflict with the freeway project and they needed
to be relocated. Under the terms of Utility Agreement No. 19359, dated June 29, 2005, between
the City and Caltrans, Caltrans agreed to reimburse the City for all costs associated with
relocation of the conflicting sewer facilities. Under the utility agreement, Caltrans will reimburse
the City for all costs associated with the relocation of conflicting utilities regarding State Route
215 up to $4,171,365.00, which reflects the estimated cost of construction with contingencies
based upon the approved plans, and specifications. In addition to this contract there were two
other contracts awarded for sewer relocation work all well under the amount agreed upon under
the utility agreement.
Pursuant to the request of Caltrans and in accordance with the Utility Agreement No. 19359, the
City prepared plans and specifications for three separate phases and bid each phase separately.
The first phase of the Segment 3 sewer relocation effort included relocation of the sewer main
along "I" Street between Mill and Inlapd Center, and various adjoining alleys.
On July 16, 2007, the Mayor and Common Council approved a Resolution to awazd a contract
with L.A. Builders, Inc. for Segment 3 Sewer Line Relocation I-215 (SW08-08), per Project Plan
No. 11916.
This project with L.A. Builders, in general, consisted of the demolition of existing sewer
manholes, installation of new sewer mains, the reconnection of existing sewer laterals and the
repair or replacement of existing roadway improvements.
When the contractor was preparing the trench and subgrade for final pavement, saturated soil
conditions were encountered, such that proper compaction could not be achieved. Complete
removal of the saturated subgrade material was required to achieve proper compaction and soil
stabilization. The removed material was replaced with aggregate base material. As a result, the
contractor provided an additiona1778 tons of crushed aggregate base material. Failure to provide
proper compaction and a stabilized subgrade would have resulted in unacceptable pavement
failure along the trench line. The cost for providing proper compaction and stabilizing the
subgrade was $228,745.34.

STAFF REPORT -Continued
Additionally, Caltrans requested complete removal of eight manholes that were not previously
identified. Caltrans requested removal of these eight manholes because they were located within
the ultimate Caltrans right-of--way after completion of the freeway widening. The cost to
completely remove the eight manholes was $18,400.
The additional remaining items of the change order include additional costs related to the
installation of 4 new manholes, and the relocation of an existing sewer mainline and lateral
outside of Caltrans' right of way. The removal of sewer encasements to allow for sewer
connection, the removal of concrete roadbed that was buried under the roadway but not
identified on plans, and connecting to the sewer at Esperanza Street. The azea azound the
manhole at Inland Center Drive and "I" Street failed, causing the contractor to excavate and
recompact the azea on an emergency basis. The additional items total $107,413.39
A substantial portion (65%) of the costs contained in the change order is attributed to correcting
the saturated soil conditions in the subgrade and moving the eight manholes at the request of
Caltrans. Caltrans will reimburse these change order costs in accordance with the utility
agreement previously mentioned.
