DISCUSSION:
On May 11, 1998, the City Council authorized the award of the Green Acres Reclaimed
Water Project, Big Canyon /Newport Beach Country Club Pump Stations, Contract No.
3186 to F.T. Ziebarth Company of Fullerton, California. The contract provided for the
the installation of two reclaimed water pump stations, one to serve the Big Canyon
Country Club and the other to serve the Newport Beach Country Club. This project was
part of the overall Orange County Water District's (OCWD) effort to bring reclaimed
water service into the City of Newport Beach. The contract has now been completed to
the satisfaction of the Public Works Department. A summary of the contract cost is as
follows:
Original bid amount: $621,700.00
Actual amount of bid items constructed: $621,700.00
Total amount of change orders: $47,786.88
Final contract cost: $669,486.88
The final overall construction cost including change orders was 7.69% over the original

A Change Order in the amount of $12,739.00 provided the power connection to
Southern California Edison Company (SCE) facility.
Several Change Orders totaling $8,000.00 provided for Contractor cost to extend the
project by a month.
A Change Order in the amount of $14,923.00 provided for a staircase from the adjacent
parking area at the Newport Beach Country Club site. This change order was
reimbursed to the City by OCWD. OCWD had originally planned to construct the
staircase; however their contractor had requested too much money to complete the
work.
A Change Order in the amount of $4,611.00 provided for the use of stainless steel
bolts, nuts and appurtenance to the Newport Beach Country Club pump station.
The schedule for this project was delayed almost a year due to the time required to
coordinate the Big Canyon Country Club's new irrigation system, the minor
modifications at the Newport Beach Country Club and the necessary County and State
Health Department approvals. Newport Beach Country Club came on line on Monday,
September 13, 1999, and finished testing on Monday, September 20, 1999. At that
time the project was deemed complete. Without the good level of cooperation between
all parties, this project would have been delayed a great deal more.
Funds for this project came from the Water Enterprise Fund under the 1997/98 Capital
Project Account No. 7501- C5500075 for the Green Acres Reclaimed Water Irrigation
Program.
