October 27 - 2011

City of Edmonton
Drainage Branch

Dear Madam / Sir,

Request for Change Order:

Regarding to our meeting dated July 30, 1993; WestBan Construction Limited needs City’s approval for extra time and cost to precede with additional scope of the construction work (changing slope in North and East banks, adding required shoring for stabilizing the soil, leaving shoring in the ground, pouring tank concrete walls instead of shotcrete), according to the option B for both North and East Slopes (Attachment F2), the chosen schemes for slope remedies are attached in this document.

WestBan, due to the delays of City of Edmonton and UMA in providing requested services to this company, believed that the justifications in cost and schedule are necessary to complete the project within satisfactory quality.

WestBan is proposing extra CAD$72,500 and additional 28 days to the original project duration according to general conditions to the contract clauses 410.1, 404.3 and 404.4. It is noteworthy that the total amount of money requested is additional to the insurance of North and South slopes which stipulated in Attachment G Section 1.2 (Course of Construction Insurance). The detailed cost breakdown and the revised schedules are attached for references.

The revised milestone dates are as followed:
Completion of Storage Tank: 17-Sept-1993
Completion of Mech./Piping: 08-Oct-1993
Completion of Electrical/Control: 15-Oct-1993
Substation Completion: 12-Nov-1993

We appreciated your considerations regarding this change order.

Sincerely Yours,
Project Manager, WestBan Construction Limited.

The change order is requested to be issued according:

WestBan Construction Limited provided the City of Edmonton with work schedule, work plan, WBS and bulk excavation for reviewing on May 25, 1993 for evaluation. All documents

    The reasons that we propose this are because that this is the method that will save the company the most time. Not only does it save the company time, but if the company were to ever fall into trouble with labor union strikes, this plan is guaranteed to be the most cost effective when facing with the steep penalties of not meeting the time limit. In addition if everything goes very smoothly the company will finish the project 8 weeks earlier than expected and save money on overhead expenses.…

Within 2 months after the meeting, Don issued a request for proposal using the recommended specification method with a specific construction time of 9 months. Four proposals were received. Don reviewed them quickly since he had 3 weeks to award the project and execute a contract.…
