CONTRACT AMENDMENT NO. 4 - Brown-Boveri Corporation for Construction of
Whiskeytown Power Project
(E-120-070-825)
Electric Director Lindley reviewed his memorandum to Council dated
December 27, 1983, which is incorporated herein by reference. He stated
that on May 28, 1981 , Council awarded a "turnkey" contract (Bid Schedule
No. 1287) for the construction of the Whiskeytown Power Project to the
Brown-Boveri Corporation (BBC) . He advised that subsequently, the City
Council authorized Contract Modifications No. One, Two, and Three. Mr.
Lindley explained that the proposed Contract Modification No. Four extends
the deadline date from December 31 , 1983, to June 30, 1984.
A
Mr. Lindley indicated that in addition to extending the aforementioned
deadline date, approval of Contract Modification No. Four will reduce the
contract price escalation, established by Contract Modification No. Three.
He stated that the City Attorney has reviewed and approved the form of the
Contract Modification.
It is the recommendation of the Electric Director that Council approve
Contract Modification No. Four and provide authorization for the City
Manager to sign the document. 1
Councilman Fulton asked if Mr. Lindley felt this would be the last exten-
sion to the contract. Mr. Lindley answered affirmatively and advised that
staff has received this morning, executable contract documents for the
Whiskeytown Power Project from Western and they are now being reviewed. He
said they also have the new electrical service contract from Western which
is being reviewed and hopefully they will be on the Council agenda for 1
January 3, 1984, as an information item and January 17, 1984, for approval .
Mr. Lindley noted that only about two weeks of the extension will be
necessary if everything goes as it is hoped.

approving Contract Amendment No. Four to the contract (Bid Schedule No.
1287) with Brown-Boveri Corporation, for the construction of the Whiskey-
