The <br /> contract period is sixty days. The Lake level has to be a <br /> minimum of 10 inches below full before construction can start. <br /> The sixty day extension would allow the lake to drop gradually <br /> as normal releases are made weekly. Currently the lake level <br /> is 3 1/2 inches below full. <br /> The extension will not change the contract amount. <br /> RECOMMENDATION: Approve change order extending contract time sixty days <br /> and authorize Chair to sign. <br />
