Magney has completed the concrete pours for the reservoir as well as most of the concrete pours at the main level of the Water Treatment Plant. Magney has also completed both the Backwash Tank and Clearwell base slabs,walls, and top slabs. Concrete pours for the walls of all filter basins have begun. Electrical conduit has been installed within the electrical room and CMU block walls have been constructed. Our engineering team has continued to coordinate with Magney and further refine the installation details of future pieces of equipment. As construction and coordination has progressed we have identified some items that will require adjustments. This letter is intended to outline those adjustments and summarize the current project budget in order for the City to fully understand the status of the project.
