Re: Nashua Public Works Project: New Building
Extra Services Request
Dear Lisa,
This letter provides detailed information on the request for an Amendment to the
contract for Civil Redesign and Miscellaneous Out of Scope Work for the Nashua
Department of Public Works Administration Building Nashua, NH by Hoyle, Tanner
& Associates, Inc. HKT has reviewed the individual items and their associated
costs and finds them reasonable and supports this request. In the interest of
keeping the project moving, Hoyle Tanner did act professionally and continued
their work efforts. Please review these and note not just their descriptions but their
assumptions going forward.
Tanner & Associates, Inc. (Hoyle Tanner) offers the following descriptions and
details with a breakdown in costs:
This fee amendment is for additional engineering services required in connection
with the City of Nashua Department of Public Works (DPW). The site plan and
permitting revisions are for the 25,000 square foot administrative building for the
DPW, located at the site of the Nashua Solid Waste Department at 848 West Hollis
Street. Hoyle Tanner has already completed many out of scope tasks for this
project. We have worked diligently to revise the Civil Design in order to adhere to
all of the schedules required by the City and to ensure that the project's process is
moving forward. The City has directed us to address City comments pertaining to
the conditional Planning Board Approval as well as the permitting and
drainage/site redesign of Infiltration Basin #2 which DES and the City has noted is
upgradient in a groundwater flow position of monitoring wells M-11 R/M/S and
would significantly interfere with on-going groundwater monitoring.
The below list outlines out of scope tasks completed by Hoyle Tanner as well as
additional tasks that have yet to be completed.
