Kolhage, District 1 David Rice, District 4 Sylvia J. Murphy, District 5 County Commission Meeting November 22, 2016 Agenda Item Number: S.5 Agenda Item Summary #2325 BULK ITEM: Yes DEPARTMENT: Sustainability TIME APPROXIMATE: STAFF CONTACT: Rhonda Haag (305) 453 -8774 N/A AGENDA ITEM WORDING: Authorize entering into a contract with Adventure Environmental, Inc. for $1,524,040 for the C83 canal restoration project in Key Largo, which includes muck removal, backfilling, and air curtain installation. ITEM BACKGROUND: Approval to negotiate was received at the September 21, 2016 BOCC meeting. Staff negotiated terms and conditions and pricing with the top ranked vender Adventure Environmental. Included in the negotiation process was the BOCC directive to provide additional dust control and to work cooperatively with the daycare center located at the end of the project canal. Staff met with the daycare owner on September 27 2016, and the daycare owner indicated his support of the project and the additional measures for dust control at the site. Additionally, the contractor originally agreed to match the price of the lowest proposal, but requested an additional $5,000 in fees for the additional dust control measures dictated by the BOCC. The 3- member selection committee ranked the proposals as follows, with the revised contract price shown: Firm Rank Original Price Adventure Environmental 1 $1,607,830.00 BC Peabody 2 $1,554,049.98 Earth Tech 3 $1,734,183.50 REVISED PRICE $1,524,040.* *Includes a $53,780 negotiated price reduction, an additional deduction for $35,000 set aside for separate Operations and Maintenance Contract, and an add -in for $5,000 for additional dust control measures. The Canal 483 Combined Organic Removal and Backfilling project is the first combination muck removal and backfilling project to be conducted. It is designed for muck removal to depths greater than - 6 feet Mean Low Water with subsequent backfilling. Monroe County's Comprehensive Plan Amendment Policy 202.8.6 allowed an exemption to Policy 202.8.4 only for the first two organic removal demonstration projects to be completed with dredging below -6 feet Mean Low Water without backfilling. Policy 202.8.6 specified that prior to results of 2 years of monitoring at the first two sites, additional organic removal projects to depths exceeding -6 feet Mean Low Water need to include backfilling. This Canal 483 project will allow a comparison of the additional water quality improvement by including backfilling to a muck removal project to assist in future determination as to whether backfilling is needed after organic removal in order to meet water quality standards. It is much more expensive to include it. The presence of the muck in this canal has depleted the dissolved oxygen levels in the canal waters and the removal of the muck and subsequent backfilling to enhance natural flushing will help to restore the canal waters to State Department of Environmental Protection Dissolved Oxygen standards. Canal 483 in Rock Harbor between Grouper and Bonito Lanes in southern Key Largo was selected utilizing the Canal Management Master Plan ranking criteria. This project will be the new seventh demonstration canal project to be implemented. This canal is among the worst as to water quality in the entire County. PREVIOUS RELEVANT BOCC ACTION: 3/23/16: Approval to advertise a Request for Proposals for completing a combination Organic Removal and Backfilling Canal Restoration Demonstration Project in Canal 484 Rock Harbor, Monroe County, Florida. [Note: C83 was subsequently selected once it was determined that no volunteered access lots were available on C84.1 09/21/16: Approval to Negotiate with the 3 vendors in rank order CONTRACT /AGREEMENT CHANGES: Contractor shall daily water down the fill to be used for backfilling on site and work to provide as dust -free site as possible. Contractor shall provide close communication about project status with the daycare owners and shall report any concerns received from the daycare owners, parents or neighbors immediately to the County. The Contractor shall monitor the odor and any noxious fumes that may occur, and shall immediately report any release of noxious fumes to the County and Engineer.

BETWEEN the Owner: Monroe County Board of County Commissioners 1100 Simonton Street The Gato Building, Room 2 -205 Key West, Florida 33040 And the Contractor: ADVENTURE ENVIRONMENTAL INC. 12895 Southwest 87 Avenue Miami, Florida 33176 For the following Project: Organic Removal, Backfilling, and Air Curtain Water Quality Improvement Project Canals #83 Rock Harbor, Key Largo, Monroe County, FL This Agreement represents one of the canal restoration demonstration projects approved by the Monroe County BOCC, whose public purpose is to improve the water quality in Monroe County. Scope of the Work Project Overview The Scope of Work for Canal #83 located between Grouper Lane and Bonito Lane in Rock Harbor on Key Largo, Florida consists of organic removal, backfilling and installation of an air curtain. The migration of weed rack into the canal has resulted in the accumulation of weed rack that has decomposed into organic muck that consumes the dissolved oxygen present in the canal, thus preventing the ability of the canal to properly support marine life. The organic muck removal activities are to be completed to remove the oxygen depleting organic materials. The backfilling activities are to be completed so that a natural benthic community can be established. The air curtain activities are to be completed to prevent the migration of weed wrack into the canals and the subsequent water quality degradation associated with the accumulation of weed wrack on the canal bottoms. 2.

If the inspection discloses any item, whether or not included on the list, which is not in accordance with the requirements of the Contract Documents, the Contractor shall, before issuance of the { a; GENERAL CONDITIONS OF CONTRACT 00750 -Page 41 of 154 ORGANIC REMOVAL, BACKFILLING, AND AIR CURTAIN WATER QUALITY IMPROVEMENT PROJECTS, CANAL #83 ROCK HARBOR, KEY LARGO, MONROE COUNTY, FL Certificate of Substantial Completion, complete or correct such item upon notification by AMEC /Engineer. The Contractor shall then submit a request for another inspection by AMEC /Engineer, to determine Substantial Completion. When the Work or designated portion thereof is substantially complete, AMEC /Engineer will prepare a Certificate of Substantial Completion, shall establish responsibilities of the Owner and Contractor for security, maintenance, heat, utilities, damage to the Work and insurance, and shall fix the time within which the Contractor shall finish all items on the list accompanying the Certificate.

Additionally, as a part of the follow -up inspection, sign -off sheets will be utilized as often as possible. The intent of these sheets is to achieve concurrence from other trade contractors and responsible parties that ensuing work can indeed commence over underlying work. This will prevent oversights and omissions which could elevate costs. Sign -off sheets shall be used for, but not be limited to, concrete, drywall, ceilings, painting, roofing substrates and flooring. These reports are to be generated by the Contractor and submitted to AMEC /Engineer Superintendent for approval prior to the start -up of work. Failure to generate a sign -off sheet or to attain proper signatures prior to covering up underlying work may affect payment for that piece of work if ensuing problems are detected or not. This disciplinary action shall be carried out via the Nonconformance Report. (See Section 1.4.13 of this plan.) Note: The Contractor shall be responsible to record these inspections and all other project related activities encountered throughout the day on the Contractor Daily Quality Control Report. 4. Completion Inspections —Upon completion of a given feature of the work, the Contractor's Quality Control Representative will meet with the Sustainability Manager representative AMEC /Engineer, if he so desires to attend, to perform an inspection of the completed work. Nonconforming items will be identified and corrected prior to commencement of the next operation. Note: The Contractor shall conduct and report corrections of this inspection which shall be a required submittal. 5. Follow -On Inspections —Upon execution of the contractor's completion inspection in elements of the work which result in concealment; such as, ceiling and drywall installations, the Contractor shall schedule and conduct multi -trade or singular inspections prior to covering installation. Note: AMEC /Engineer will record the minutes to this inspection meeting. 6. Pre -Final Inspection —Upon substantial completion of the project work AMEC /Engineer shall coordinate and conduct a universal inspection of all areas and elements of the work. The Sustainability Manager may be represented if she so desires. This inspection shall be completed at least (15) days prior to the final substantial completion inspection which shall be conducted by AMEC /Engineer. All deficiencies and incomplete work should be completed prior to the final substantial completion inspection. CONTRACTOR QUALITY CONTROL PLAN 00980 -Page 68 of 154 ORGANIC REMOVAL, BACKFILLING, AND AIR CURTAIN WATER QUALITY IMPROVEMENT PROJECTS, CANAL #83 ROCK HARBOR, KEY LARGO, MONROE COUNTY, FL B.

The Sustainability Manager representative AMEC /Engineer will coordinate and witness all such tests. Notification should be given at least ten (10) days in advance of the scheduled tests. C. FINAL INSPECTION AMEC /Engineer will coordinate and attend all final inspections of the work. The Sustainability Manager may be represented if she so desires. Prior to requesting a final inspection, all tests for the equipment and systems must be completed. See Section 01700 for contract closeout. 1.4 REPORTING Maintaining accurate and retrievable records is extremely important in the Quality Assurance Program. These records will act as a main source of information in the present and in the future for the entire Sustainability Manager team. The main report that will be utilized to provide this information is the Daily Quality Control Report. Nonconformance Reports may also be issued. A. DAILY QUALITY CONTROL REPORT The Daily Quality Control Report shall be used to document the summary of daily inspection activities performed by the Contractor's designated Quality Control Representative. It shall include any of the steps of inspection that are performed that day, all test monitoring and any rework of nonconforming items. The daily Quality Control Report section of the Daily Superintendent's Report will be routinely used for daily reporting requirements. When the magnitude or complexity necessitates such, a more separate and comprehensive form will be used. Reference Contractor's Daily Report, and as needed Contractor Daily Quality Control Report, Section 01385. B. NONCONFORMANCE REPORT Nonconformance Reports will be issued for work that is found to be in nonconformance with the contract documents or the referenced quality standards. The report will be issued by Sustainability Manager. It is not the intent to routinely and repeatedly issue nonconformance reports, but to issue them only after normal enforcement standards have been exhausted, or if the work performed is a detriment to the project. a a CONTRACTOR QUALITY CONTROL PLAN 00980 -Page 69 of 154 ORGANIC REMOVAL, BACKFILLING, AND AIR CURTAIN WATER QUALITY IMPROVEMENT PROJECTS, CANAL #83 ROCK HARBOR, KEY LARGO, MONROE COUNTY, FL A copy of the Nonconformance Report will be forwarded to the Site Project Manager for his information and /or action. It should also be included in the Contractor's Daily Quality Report package for general review. Nonconformance Reports will be signed off once the deficient item or items have adequately been corrected. This will be done by the issuing Superintendent and Project Manager. These sign -offs will be included with a corresponding corrective action taken. Significant nonconformance needs to be addressed to prevent recurrence. The signed -off report will also be submitted for review. Work activities affected by a Nonconformance Report will proportionally counter - affect payments. Whether that be partial or full retainage will be left up to the discretion of Sustainability Manager. 1.5 AUDITS A. Sustainability Manager may choose at its option to perform Contractor audits of their Contractor Quality Control Plan at any time. Reports of these audit results will be forwarded to the Project Manager for his action. Any action items noted during an audit for the Contractor will be followed up and documented to insure compliance and avoid recurrence. 1.6 SUMMARY The intention of this plan is to create a system of checks and balances that will minimize delays caused by rework and a lack of planning and maximize production and insure that the finished product is one that the entire construction team can pride themselves in. These goals can be achieved by giving the Owner exactly what he has bought. The Owner will expect no more and through Quality Assurance, the construction team will provide no less. a a; CONTRACTOR QUALITY CONTROL PLAN 00980 -Page 70 of 154 ORGANIC REMOVAL, BACKFILLING, AND AIR CURTAIN WATER QUALITY IMPROVEMENT PROJECTS, CANAL #83 ROCK HARBOR, KEY LARGO, MONROE COUNTY, FL SECTION 00990 - SPECIAL CONDITIONS 1.

The migration of weed rack into the canal has resulted in the accumulation of weed rack that has decomposed into organic muck that consumes the dissolved oxygen present in the canal, thus preventing the ability of the canal to properly support marine life. The organic muck removal activities are to be completed to remove the oxygen depleting organic materials. The backfilling activities are to be completed so that a natural benthic community can be established. The air curtain activities are to be completed to prevent the migration of weed wrack into the canals and the subsequent water quality degradation associated with the accumulation of weed wrack on the canal bottoms. The organic removal shall be done utilizing vacuum dredging in such a way to prevent impact to the nearshore waters, and shall be completed using the proposed staging areas identified in the design drawings (Exhibit A), or an approved alternate. The backfilling will raise the canal bottom to -7.9 ft. NAVD, which is approximately 6 feet below the Mean Sea Level for the canal (a depth that is typically suitable to allow for sufficient light and oxygen to permeate the water column to support a healthy ecological habitat). The organic removal, backfilling and air curtains shall be done in such a way to prevent impact to the nearshore waters, and shall be completed using the proposed staging area identified on the project drawings. 2 General Project Intent and Scope Provide all labor, supervision, engineering, materials, supplies, equipment, tools, transportation, surveying, layout, and protection for the proper execution and completion of all the work in accordance with the Contract Documents.
