Mississippi Administrative Code › Title 11 - Mississippi Department of Environmental Quality › Part 6 - Wastewater Pollution Control Regulations › Chapter 4 - Mississippi Commission on Environmental Quality State Revolving Fund Loan Program Regulations (Effective for Projects Funded Prior to 10/1/2000) › Appendix 11-6-4-B - Allowance for Facilities Planning, Design and Construction Phase Services

Current through June 25, 2024
The allowance for facilities planning and design will be
				  determined using Table 1 of this Appendix. Projects for which the loan
				  recipient must acquire easements or real property in accordance with the
				  federal Uniform Relocation and Real Property Acquisition Policies Act may
				  receive an additional 1% above the percentages shown in Table 1 for the
				  planning and design allowance. Projects for which a value engineering study is
				  conducted may receive an additional 1% above the percentages shown in Table 1
				  for the planning and design allowance.
The allowance for construction phase services (includes costs
				  for construction engineering, resident observation, project administration,
				  legal work, and all other costs for work, other than construction, performed in
				  relation to the project) will be determined using Table 2 of this
				  Appendix.
The estimated and final allowances will be determined in
				  accordance with this Appendix and Tables 1 and 2. All allowance percentages
				  will be calculated to four decimal places using linear interpolation. The
				  amount of the allowance is computed by applying the resulting allowance
				  percentage to the initial allowable building cost. The initial allowable
				  building cost is the initial allowable cost of erecting, altering, remodeling,
				  improving, or extending a treatment works, whether accomplished through
				  subagreement or force account. Specifically, the initial allowable building
				  cost is the allowable cost of the following:
a. The initial award amount of all prime subagreements for
				  building the project.
b. The initial amounts approved for force account work
				  performed in lieu of awarding a subagreement for building the project.
c. The purchase price of eligible real property.
The estimated allowances are to be based on the estimate of
				  the initial allowable building cost. The final allowances will be determined
				  one time only for each project, based on the initial allowable building cost,
				  and will not be adjusted for subsequent cost increases or decreases.
The allowance Tables are not intended to be used to determine
				  the compensation for facilities planning services, design services, or
				  construction phase services. Compensation for these services should be based
				  upon the nature, scope, and complexity of the services required by the
				  community. The actual compensation justified for a particular project may be
				  more or less than the amount of the allowance for these services.
Following execution of the SRF loan agreement, the loan
				  recipient may request and receive payment for the facilities planning and
				  design allowance and the construction phase services allowance in accordance
				  with the procedures described in Rule
				  4.3.G. of this regulation. Advances of
				  allowances will not be provided.
