During the excavation for the installation of the storm
drain and sewer line in "I" Street, the Contractor encountered
two conditions that were unknown at the time of bid; and, there-
fore, were not identified in the plans and specifications.
At the intersection of 3rd and "I" Streets , the soil was
found to be extremely wet and of such poor quality that it could
not be used as backfill material . Also, although three soil
borings were taken on the project in three locations, a large
section of concrete pavement was found underneath the existing
asphalt concrete pavement, north of 2nd Street and south of
Congress Street, that the borings did not reflect.
Ordinarily, import material would be used if unsuitable
soils are encountered, however, in this case, due to the water
plume being present, the area needed to be treated and stabilized
instead of backfill material being placed. The contractor was,
therefore, directed to place asphalt grindings in the excavated
area to a depth of approximately 4 - 5 feet. This treatment
stabilized the intersection and will prevent any future problems
with subsidence at that location.
The work was performed on a time and material basis, at a
total cost of $8 , 393 . 86 , in accordance with provisions in Section
3 of the Standard Specifications .
Soil borings were taken at three locations within the
project area, which are used to represent the soil conditions
that exist on "I" Street and identify the thickness and nature of
the existing pavement section. Although concrete was discovered
north of Rialto Avenue, the soil borings did not identify any
concrete in the area south of Rialto Avenue. It appears that the
concrete was sporadically located on "I" Street and is not con-
tinuous from Mill Street north to the 3rd Street off-ramp,
therefore, the information that was provided did not represent
the actual conditions that existed on "I" Street. Since this is
the case, there was no provision for payment to the Contractor
for any concrete removal south of Rialto Avenue. Therefore, the
Contractor is entitled to additional compensation for the extra
work involved in removing and disposing of the concrete pavement.
An additional 23 , 809 square feet of concrete pavement was
encountered and removed. The Contractor performed the extra work
at the negotiated price of $0 . 62 per square foot, for a total
additional cost of $14 , 761 . 58 .
