| BACKGROUND: |
The former Escambia County Mosquito Control facility conducted operations at the 603 W. Romana Street site from 1985. Petroleum and pesticide groundwater contamination occurred due to to operations at the site. In 2005, the site was designated a Brownfield and in 2007 the County entered into a Brownfield Site Rehabilitation Agreement (BSRA, Exhibit I) with the Florida Department of Environmental Protection (FDEP). A Remedial Action Plan (RAP) was prepared in 2010. An excerpt from the RAP is included as Exhibit II, which details the scope of soil contamination on site, the contaminated groundwater plume, and the plan for remediation.
As part of the BSRA, the County is charged with also remediating the present contamination plume. The plume boundaries have been defined based on extensive groundwater testing and monitoring. Groundwater monitoring data shows that the contaminated groundwater plume has migrated approximately 500 feet south of the Former Mosquito Control property impacting the City of Pensacola (City) Corrine Jones Park property located at 600 West Government Street (Site Map included as Exhibit III). The County has already completed the contaminated soil removal at the former Mosquito Control Facility and is currently implementing the required groundwater and soil remediation system as outlined in the RAP Site Remediation and Closure Scope of Work approved by the BCC on June 3, 2014 (Exhibit IV).
The City has begun construction of a stormwater pond on the Corrine Jones Park property, but work has been suspended due to the presence of the contaminated groundwater plume from the former Mosquito Control facility. Dewatering of the site (removal of groundwater) must be done to facilitate construction of the pond, and FDEP requires that the contaminated water be treated as it is removed. This Change Order will authorize the funding to design, construct, and operate the contaminated groundwater treatment system. It is anticipated that the dewatering treatment of the contaminated groundwater will accelerate completion of the RAP and the closeout of the 603 Romana Street site.
The scope of work for the Change Order is attached as Exhibit V. The budget for services is as follows:
| Dewatering Treatment System Design |
$9,988.00 |
| Dewatering Treatment System Rental and Operations Oversight |
$198,634.48 |
| Project Management and Reporting |

$29,875.00 |
| TOTAL: |
