1. Change Order 4 Contract J06026C01 JIWRF Nonhazardous Site Lighting Upgrade Restore ED Original Delegated Authority Approve Changes to Total Contract Cost Commission Agenda Item #11

2. Original Contract Award-J06026C01
Awarded to Next Electric, Inc., March 2018
Construction started April 2018
Scope:
Remove and recycle older, less efficient fixtures
Replace over 3,400 fixtures at JIWRF

3. Lighting Systems JIWRF has outdated lighting technology
Non-hazardous classification due to fixture location
Work includes new bulbs, some fixture changes
LED technology
This project works towards the District’s 2035 Vision and Energy Plan. It will reduce the amount of electricity used at the plants by replacing a large number of old, inefficient fixtures and replacing them with newer lighting technology that uses much less energy.

4. Conditions Encountered
Some planned bulb replacements could not be performed due to field conditions
Fixtures were incompatible due to existing:
Ballast condition
Wiring configuration
Brackets not matching
These were issues discovered in the field that was not part of the design contract to identify.

5. Light Fixture Solutions
Direct wire the bulbs and remove the ballasts
Replace the entire fixture
Option one was chosen for fixtures where it was the cheapest solution that let us keep our focus on energy credits, and we did not lose any efficiencies in the fixture by wiring through the current ballast.
Option two was chosen in places where direct wiring the bulb would cost just as much as a new fixture due to the labor intensive nature of certain fixtures and their location.
