Summary:
After the start of the project, it was noticed the removal of pavement marking on the existing pavement was creating a Foreign Object Debris (FOD) concern on the airfield. FOD is detrimental to aircraft as the rocks from the pavement can be ingested by the engines causing catastrophic failure.
An application of a seal coat can prevent FOD from occurring. Therefore, this change order is needed to add a line item for seal coat to charge against the project as needed.
The Federal Aviation Authority will pay 90% of the cost of this change order under the existing grant.
There is no extension associated with this change order.
