Change Order 3 added over $1.1 million in costs to the project mostly related to PCB\u00a0removal and remediation as required\u00a0by law.<\/p>\n<p>Board Member Joe Foti\u00a0inquired about the forms of odor control that were to be used at Chelsea Creek Headworks. MWRA staff indicated that only carbon would be used at Chelsea Creek.\u00a0At last month&#8217;s Board Meeting, there had been similar discussion over the Nut Island Headworks Odor Control project. Without any measurable justification, the Nut Island Headworks project includes two forms of odor control, whereas Chelsea Creek will have one &#8211; a point Board Member Andy Pappastergion inquired about.<\/p>\n<p>Stay tuned for more news on the future change orders on this project.<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_toggle][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row admin_label=&#8221;Row&#8221;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;1_3&#8243;][et_pb_text admin_label=&#8221;Meeting Materials&#8221; background_layout=&#8221;light&#8221; text_orientation=&#8221;left&#8221; text_font_size=&#8221;14&#8243; use_border_color=&#8221;off&#8221; border_color=&#8221;#ffffff&#8221; border_style=&#8221;solid&#8221;]<\/p>\n<div style=\"width: 410px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a class=\"view fancybox-pdf\" title=\"Meeting Materials\" href=\"http:\/\/mwraadvisoryboard.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/BOD-Meeting-Materials-7-19-17.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-3630 noopener\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" style=\"border: 1px solid gray;\" src=\"http:\/\/mwraadvisoryboard.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/BOD-Meeting-Materials-7-19-17-pdf.jpg\" alt=\"Meeting Materials Thumbnail\" width=\"400\" \/><\/a><p class=\"wp-caption-text\">Meeting Materials<\/p><\/div>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=&#8221;1_3&#8243;][et_pb_text admin_label=&#8221;Vote Extracts&#8221; background_layout=&#8221;light&#8221; text_orientation=&#8221;left&#8221; text_font_size=&#8221;14&#8243; use_border_color=&#8221;off&#8221; border_color=&#8221;#ffffff&#8221; border_style=&#8221;solid&#8221;]<\/p>\n<div style=\"width: 410px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a class=\"view fancybox-pdf\" title=\"Vote Extracts\" href=\"http:\/\/mwraadvisoryboard.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/BOD-Vote-Extracts-7-19-17.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-3630 noopener\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" style=\"border: 1px solid gray;\" src=\"http:\/\/mwraadvisoryboard.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/BOD-Vote-Extracts-7-19-17-pdf.jpg\" alt=\"Vote Extracts Thumbnail\" width=\"400\"><\/a><p class=\"wp-caption-text\">Vote Extracts<\/p><\/div>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=&#8221;1_3&#8243;][et_pb_text admin_label=&#8221;Approved Minutes&#8221; background_layout=&#8221;light&#8221; text_orientation=&#8221;left&#8221; text_font_size=&#8221;14&#8243; use_border_color=&#8221;off&#8221; border_color=&#8221;#ffffff&#8221; border_style=&#8221;solid&#8221;]<\/p>\n<div style=\"width: 410px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a class=\"view fancybox-pdf\" title=\"Approved Minutes June 7, 2017\" href=\"http:\/\/mwraadvisoryboard.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/BOD-Approved-Minutes-6-28-17.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-3630 noopener\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" style=\"border: 1px solid gray;\" src=\"http:\/\/mwraadvisoryboard.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/BOD-Approved-Minutes-6-28-17-pdf.jpg\" alt=\"Approved Minutes June 28, 2017 Thumbnail\" width=\"400\"><\/a><p class=\"wp-caption-text\">Approved Minutes June 28, 2017<\/p><\/div>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Board Briefs &#8211; Nut Island Odor Control costs jump $20 million in final FY18 CIP&#8230; <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":5,"featured_media":7766,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-7765","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-general","has-thumbnail"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.gcdev3.com\/mwra\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7765","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.gcdev3.com\/mwra\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.gcdev3.com\/mwra\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.gcdev3.com\/mwra\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/5"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.gcdev3.com\/mwra\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=7765"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.gcdev3.com\/mwra\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7765\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.gcdev3.com\/mwra\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/7766"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.gcdev3.com\/mwra\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=7765"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.gcdev3.com\/mwra\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=7765"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.gcdev3.com\/mwra\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=7765"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
