Answer to request #4.
A) The complete break-down for the cost of parts is attached. Estimate E20252 from H.D.
Fowler Dated 71912020. Also attached is the current cost for the meter in the estimate from
Consolidated Supply. The full cost of $ZZlg.SZ and 5826.80 is for a connection that must be
tied back to the water main. These costs do not reflect excavation labor. Parts costs can be
reduced for connections that have curb stops in place by subtracting line items 1, 2 and 5
bringing the cost of parts to 52038.64 plus the cost of the meter. These are approximate
prices and the most up to date that we can provide at this time.
B) To complete a road crossing a bore is achieved by the contractor exposing the water line
and preparing a pit on both sides of the road. The contractor then pulls a 3-inch casing
under the road to install the water connection in. exploratory excavation and labor (hand
digging around underground utilities) takes time to accomplish safely. Boring prevents the
need of closing the road and putting unneeded asphalt patches in our roads. Pavement
cutting and patching falls in the contingency category and is not included in the cost
estimate for a standard bore. Asphalt cutting and patching is based on the size of area
effected and the cost of product at the time. This will be discussed in greater depth in
request #9.
C) The responsibilities of the operator, at the point that a person turns in their application for
water service, the operator must do a preliminary survey of the lot for a will or will not serve
letter. Next is a location plan, locate all utilities and the location of the new services. This
can include reading maps and looking for valves and lines with a metal detector or other
locating devices. Determining if a bore will be needed, do we have a curb stop or will we
need to tap the main. Will a shut down of the neighborhood be needed. lf so a 24-hour
notice must be handed out, construction samples must be taken after wards. At this point
the contractor is scheduled. The operator observes all phases of the work preformed by the
contractor. The operator completes the documentation and returns it to the office staff for
the setup of accounting. With the lack of verifiable information and the age of the
subdivisions this can be a lengthy process.
Request #5
A) The bid from Leo's excavation. Leo was given the required parts list that was included in our
application from consolidated supply dated 6/20119. I can not speak for Leos excavation but
I assume the 52500.00 included all of the required parts.
B) Leo did not give a breakdown of his estimates, but what was expected is the excavation of
the water main, open a pit to bore from, open a pit to set the meter and perform the tie in,
bore under the road. with appropriate backfill and compaction.
C) Once again, I cannot speak for Leos excavation. The work expected is, hot tap the water
main. Assemble all required parts and install the meter set. Test and back fill with proper
compaction.
D) To my knowledge this bid did not include any permitting, traffic control or company
administrative Costs.
E) To my knowledge this bid did not include any contingency estimates.
Request #6
Request #7
Request #8
Request #9
A) Swank Excavation was given the same required parts list as Leo's. this was included in the
application and you can see the parts again in the "parts estimates'attached to this email.
Due to the environment in this country at the moment prices are fluctuation regularly.
These costs would be under the 52462.27 parts and materials. The estimated cost of
53708.00 to my understanding was for exploratory excavation to locate all unmarked
utilities and the close proximity to the phone and power "hand work" that was required on
both sides of the road. Also, reshaping of the ditch line after installation of the meter set
that was required.
B) The scope of work that was expected was the excavation of the water main, open a pit to
bore from, open a pit to set the meter and perform the tie in, bore under the road. lnstall a
3-inch sleeve and finish with appropriate backfilland compaction.
C) No patching was required
D) Yes, this bid included traffic control
E) No, to my knowledge this bid did not include any of the Stoneridge administrative costs.
F) No, to my knowledge this bid did not include any contingency estimates.
as in response to the work preformed by C&D Dirtworks that was included in the application.
That was completed prior to my employment with Stoneridge. I have no information to add to
the invoices and the employees that were involved no longer work here. So I can not expand on
the scope of work preformed or why the costs. That invoice was included to show actual cost
being paid by Stoneridge for connections not just bids. But those costs reflect prices from 2019.
To my understanding C&D Dirtworks is no longer available to or will perform the work at those
costs any longer.
Contingencies: are costs that accrue from abnormal conditions. Damage to unmarked or
unknown utilities. Excessive exploratory excavation to locate utilities. Asphalt cutting and
patching. Reconstruction of landscape or ditch lines due to excessive exploration. Or any other
unforeseen issue. Each of these issues are priced on an individual basis by cost, size or time
allotted.
