Increase in Contract, Abbott Power Plant, Urbana (20) On July 12 and August 6, 1990, the Board of Trustees authorized the award of a contract with Hart & Schroeder Mechanical Contractors, Inc., Champaign, for the repair a n d / o r replacement of the breeching and dampers in the six boilers of the Abbott Power Plant. T h e amount of the contract was $283,000. In the execution of the contract, extensive damage to the floor of the reheat burner section was found. T h e damage was caused by moisture, which is a part of the flue gas desulfurization process, and was not anticipated. It is, therefore, necessary to remove and install a new floor which will prevent the moisture from reaching the steel breeching chamber. T h e work needs to be completed as soon as possible in order that the power plant can be in full operation for the heating season. T h e cost of the repair will not exceed $60,000. Accordingly, the president of the University, with the concurrence of the appropriate administrative officers, recommends an increase in the contract to Hart & Schroeder Mechanical Contractors, Inc., Champaign, in an amount not to exceed $60,000 for the work described above. Funds are available from the Fiscal Year 1991 institutional funds operating budget of the Operation and Maintenance Division at the Urbana campus.
