Title
AUTHORIZING the Chief Executive Officer to execute a Contract Modification to Contract No. C0988 with Walsh/Shea Corridor Constructors (WSCC), to increase Contract Schedule C Provisional Sums Items for the Crenshaw/LAX Transit Project in an amount not to exceed $3,000,000, increasing the total contract value from $1,286,777,827 to $1,289,777,827.

One of the line items within Contract Schedule C Provisional Sums, Item No. 1 Unknown Utilities, is estimated to exceed current contract value, and therefore the Board is requested to approve the increase to Schedule C Provisional Sum costs by a total of $3,000,000.
