Body
Issue/Request:
An Ordinance approving change order #2 to the contract with Second Sight Systems, L.L.C. for the SCADA System Improvements Project, an increase of $6,487.42 for a revised contract price of $420,405.66.
Key Issues:
? The antenna at the Rice Road Valve location was changed from a standard aerial to a panel antenna as it is less intrusive and less likely to be damaged by passersby.
? The mast configuration at the South Terminal was changed as the final loadings for the equipment was determined.
? Final sight and signal lines between Bowlin Pump Station and Woods Chapel Tower required testing and revision of the antenna mounting mast.
? The antenna configuration at Leinweber was revised for better long term operation.
? The antenna configuration was revised for better reception at Kensington BO.
? There was a change to a Cellular solution at Station 6 due to poor radio signal strength at this site.
? An upgrade of the grounding system was required at the Rice Road valve vault as it was determined the existing system would not protect the proposed radios.
