2% MACC (Maximum Allowable Construction Costs) Contingency  13 Change Orders executed
and 4 pending, which includes estimate for conforming design development allowance reallocation.

reallocation.

Non-Suspension Related Contract Changes  114 Change Orders executed, and 85 pending. This
construction contingency bucket is trended to be consumed by the known cost issues. However, the
other cost buckets will have unspent funding (due to favorable bids, lower suspension related costs
and allowances not used) that will be available. 
Suspension Related Contract Changes  30 Change Orders executed, and 13 pending. Subcontractor
audits have mostly been completed, with audits of the GC/CM contractor and two sub-tiers in
progress. Authorized funding for suspension cost impacts is projected to have dollars remaining. 
Design: 
Final review comments were received from the Off-Site Roadway Improvements Agency review
effort. Comments were received late further delaying the anticipated bid date to mid-February. 
Final review comments were received from the integrated 100% Bus Maintenance Facility and 90%
CNG Fueling Facility design documents. Significant comments received on specifications and
revised procedures for sole source requirements will require additional time and cost to complete. 
Continue evaluating remaining Walker claim of $427,718. Adequate documentation supports slightly
over $100,000 owed Walker. Will process amendment. 
Issued 30 Design Change Notices (DCN's) to date. Currently there are an additional 14 design
changes in process to be consolidated into future DCN's.
