DISCUSSION / BACKGROUND
The contract for the US 50 / Missouri Flat Road Interchange Improvements - Phase 1C- Riparian Restoration Project (Project) was approved by the Board on August 2, 2016, Legistar File 16-0455. Construction started on October 10, 2016, and was completed in December 2018. The Plant Establishment period began January 15, 2018, and ended December 31, 2023. Due to extensive coordination with the California Department of Fish and Wildlife, revisions to the success criteria, and the overall difficulty in plant establishment in high scour areas, the plant establishment period was extended from its anticipated completion in January 2022 to December 2023. All field and reporting work is now complete. The recordation of the Notice of Acceptance (NOA) will start legal time frames for guarantees, a lien period, and return of retention monies. Recordation of the NOA will also start the one-year time frame for releasing the Payment and Performance Bonds to the Surety.
