COMMITTEE ON PROCUREMENT
Mr. David St. Pierre, Executive Director
Title
Authority to increase Contract 16-666-11, Hazardous Waste Disposal at Various Locations, to Veolia ES Technical Solutions, LLC, in an amount of $20,000.00 from an amount of $195,675.65 to an amount not to exceed $215,675.65, Account 101-66000-612520, Purchase Order 5001558
Body
Dear Sir:
On May 5, 2016, the Board of Commissioners authorized the Director of Procurement and Materials Management to award Contract 16-666-11, Hazardous Waste Disposal at Various Locations, to Veolia ES Technical Solutions, LLC, in an amount not to exceed $195,675.65. The contract will expire on December 31, 2018.
The contract has no prior change orders.
An increase in contract value is being requested for 2016, because the disposal quantity of mercury-containing hazardous waste generated by the District’s M&R Department laboratories and the M&O Department TPO laboratories was greater than anticipated at the time the contract was awarded.
This change order is in compliance with the Illinois Criminal Code since the change is due to circumstances not reasonably foreseeable at the time the contract was signed, and is in the best interest of the District.
It is hereby recommended that the Board of Commissioners authorize the Director of Procurement and Materials Management to execute a change order to increase Contract 16-666-11, in an amount of $20,000.00 (approximately 10.2% of the current contract value) from an amount of $195,675.65 to an amount not to exceed $215,675.65.
Funds are available in Account 101-66000-612520.
Requested, John P. Murray, Director of Maintenance and Operations, BAP:SO’C:MAG:SSG:JR
Recommended, Darlene A. LoCascio, Director of Procurement and Materials Management
Respectfully Submitted, Barbara J. McGowan, Chairman Committee on Procurement
Disposition of this agenda item will be documented in the official Regular Board Meeting Minutes of
the Board of Commissioners for December 1, 2016
