GATLINBURG â The city approved amendments to engineering services for the West Prong Force Main improvement project and its wastewater treatment plant expansion recently.
The increase in costs include an amendment to the West Prong Force Main improvement project for an additional $31,500 for additional construction administration and construction observation services costs associated with the project. C2RL Inc. is providing those services for the city.
âThis is for a project we presented and you approved last meeting,â Utility Manager Dale Phelps said.
While the project is over budget, it is city officials understanding the remaining funds will come from the American Rescue Plan funds received in 2021 for utility infrastructure projects.
