Director of Utility Operations DATE: August 25, 2015 RE: Proposed Resolution No. 19112 Nature of the Request: A Hurricane Recovery Grant administered by the Texas General Land Office funded the majority of this project to replace one Ground Storage Tank and construct a second Ground Storage Tank & Pump Station at our existing Gulf GST & Pump Station facility on South Gulfway Drive near the Gulf Copper docks. Sabine Pass Liquefaction funded a portion of this project (about 10%) that was necessary to increase capacity to serve their LNG facility. This project was a major milestone in improving the reliability and capabilities of the public water system serving the Sabine Pass area. It will increase pumping and storage capacity, and provide for an emergency generator to keep water flowing during power outages. StaffAnalysis, Considerations: None. Recommendation: I recommend that the City Council approve Proposed Resolution No. 19112 authorizing the acceptance of the Engineer's Certificate of Completion, Contractor's Certificate of Guarantee, and the Contractor's Certificate and Release for the Gulf Ground Storage Tank with BDS Constructors LLC dba MK Constructors, of Vidor, Texas, and authorizing final payment in the amount of$99,972.68.

These documents include the Engineer's Certificate of Completion, Contractor's Certificate of Guarantee and the Contractor's Certificate of Release. These documents were executed showing a balance due the Contractor from the City. This balance is the retainage withheld from the monthly estimates as well as any payments due from completion of work. As stipulated in the contract documents the retainage for this project is five percent (5%) of the work completed and billed. It is our recommendation that the retainage held by the City be released to the Contractor and final payment made. This will result in a final payment to BDS Constructors LLC dba MK Constructors from the City of Port Arthur in the amount of Ninety Nine Thousand Nine Hundred Seventy Two Dollars Sixty Eight Cents ($99,972.68).
