Contingency funds of approximately 7.5% of the construction cost have been included to address unforeseen/concealed conditions or related deficiencies which may be encountered while completing the work. The refrigeration system must meet all regulatory requirements prior to operation. If the contingency is not required, the funds will be returned to source. Discussion: The existing O'Brien Arena refrigeration plant at the Pickering Recreation Complex was installed in 1993. It is now 25 years old and has reached the end of its serviceable life. Several components, including the shell and tube heat exchanger, have severe corrosion and cannot be returned to service for another ice season. The existing rooftop condenser connected to this system is of the same vintage and is also at end of life. Although it was budgeted for replacement in the 2017 capital budget (5735.1701.6500), both projects were combined in the 2018 tender in order to realize cost savings. As a result of this project, redundant equipment will be removed and replaced with new equipment strategically located to reclaim much needed storage space. The refrigeration plant must be operational by August 31, 2018 in order to produce ice in time for the 2018-2019 ice season. The contractor will be required to provide a temporary refrigeration plant, should the deadline not be met, to maintain operations until the work is completed. Provision of the required connections for a temporary plant is included in the scope of work, and will build in redundancy should one be required at any future date.
