a The estimated cost of the work is Rs. 73.206 million against
provision of Rs. 40.1 million in umbrella PC-1. The procuring
agency may justify the additional cost over and above the
provision made in umbrella PC-1.
The provision of Rs. 40.1 million in
umbrella PC-1 is tentative cost while
actual cost is Rs. 76.762 million
estimate cost as per site position.
b The length of channel proposed in the instant PC-I is 27365
ft (RD: 0+000 to 27+365) against the provision of 27675 ft
(RD: 0+000 to 27+675) in umbrella PC-1. The procuring
agency may justify decrease in length for concrete lining
with reference to provision made in umbrella PC-1
The length of channel proposed in the
instant PC-I is 27365 is correct while
umbrella PC-1 of 27675 ft is incorrect
and written due to typing mistake.
