construction began in september, 2014. and in november, contaminated materials were discovered during the testing of excavating materials prior to disposal n february of 2015, the commission on community investment and infrastructure approved to increase the budget to provide funding to dispose of one stockpile of contaminated soils, those were approved by the board in 2015. and at the time that amendment the staff from the transportation authority, and ocii and the transbay joint authority and cal transwere in the discussion of disposition of other soils and seeking to find solutions in order to minimize the project costs. >> some of the materials have tested positive for led contamination and classified as california has ard yus materials, after the discussions, ocii and cal

transstaff, ocii staff, concluded that the only available option is to dispose of the soils at a regulated disposal facility, it is clean harbor landfill in california. the presence of contaminated materials has prevented some work from proceeding as originally schedule, construction is currently schedule to be completed in early july. the time extension will insure, costs for idle equipment and project and the staffing by the contractor construction manager and transportation authority. the estimated delay is currently 61 days in total, some of which core current owner and contractor-caused. >> and the estimated additional project cost to properly handle and dispose of approximately, 5500 tons is $1 million, the total carrying costs for the time extension are estimated at $200,000. of that, 64,580, is designated in the mla amendment for the

contractor, who is compensated on a per day basis for site maintenance and costs for all owner caused delay, thus, 180 responses is designated for the engineers, and the remaining 17,080 is designated to the authority for the project management oversight costs and the proposed resolution will increase the engineer's contract by 118,340 and increase the additional construction allotment by 1 million, 81,660,000. >> thank you. >> thank you very much. >> colleagues, are there any questions or comments? relating to this item?
