PROJECT NO. CIP 98-621 PIER RENOVATION, PHASE II – PROGRESS REPORT

 

Recommendation:

It is recommended that City Council receive and file this report.

 

Summary:

This report covers the progress made on this project since August 8, 2000.  As Council is aware, the estimated completion date indicated in the August 8th report was October 11, 2000; that may now change.

The arrival of the Navy vessel the weekend of September 8, 2000, may cause some delay to the project. It will cause a disruption of the work schedule, delaying the completion of the railing installation and may extend the completion date.

 

Work Completed:

Contractor has completed the deck delamination repairs and the deck crack repair to the top of the deck. Spall repairs, epoxy crack injection and the anti-corrosion/inhibitor coating to the bottom of the deck between bents 22 and 25 have been completed. The joint material at all construction and expansion joints at the pile caps from the bulkhead to the end of the pier has been removed. The new water line from the bulkhead to the end of the pier that feeds the new hose bibbs and fish cleaning stations has been completed and removal of all items from the side and under the pier, which required removal, have been removed. The additional work on the sewer and water line for the existing restroom building south of the pier has been completed as well. Furthermore, the removal of the existing handrail; removal of the existing handrail anchors and hole patching have completed along with the coating of the side of the pier; installation of conduit and wire for fog horn power and telephone; conduit and wire for bollard lights on both sides of the pier; drops for bollard light fixtures; installation of the mounting frame for the transformer and setting of the transformer; installation of the electrical ground; and installation of the railing from bent 10 to bent 17 are completed as well.

 

Work in Progress:

The railing subcontractor continues the installation of the new handrail on the south side of the pier from bent 17 west. The electrical contractor continues to work on the transformer, panel and installation to feed the pier lighting.

 

Work Remaining:

Items remaining to be done under this contract include: completion of new handrail and gate installation; installation of electrical transformer, panel and pier lighting; bead blasting of deck and application of deck finish coating plus the installation of benches and fish cleaning stations.

 

Conclusions:

The new handrail and gate installation, always the critical path of this project, has begun. The anticipated time required to complete the railing installation is five (5) weeks and should be completed by the end of September.

It should be noted that the arrival of the Navy vessel the weekend of September 8, 2000, might cause some delay. This will cause a disruption to the work schedule, delaying the completion of the railing installation and extending the completion date. The revised light bollards are scheduled to arrive the first week of September. The deck finish coating and the installation of the bollard light fixtures, fish cleaning stations and benches will follow the completion of the railing.

Again, the revised completion date of October 11th looks very reasonable unless the installation of temporary facilities to accommodate the docking of the USS Elliot causes any delays.
