09:59 AM -- Department of Personnel and Administration

Mr. Larry Friedberg, State Architect, Department of Personnel and Administration, presented an emergency supplemental request for the State Capitol dome renovation project. Committee members received a summary of the request, prepared by Legislative Council Staff (Attachment J). Mr. Friedberg provided an overview of the needed renovations. He next gave an overview of the phased approach of the project and the current and future requests for the project. Mr. Friedberg explained that the plan is to have scaffolding in place in April 2011 and that he will present a scaffolding configuration to the committee in January 2011. After the scaffolding is installed, the project engineers will conduct a forensic study of the damage to the cast iron structure.

Discussion turned to the scrim that will cover the scaffolding. Mr. Friedberg addressed questions about how repairs will be made to the cast iron structure. He explained that the renovations will be made from the top down for each of the 16 segments. In response to a question about the possibility that the damage to the dome is worse than anticipated, Mr. Friedberg said he will be providing frequent updates to the committee. He reminded the committee that the main structure of the rotunda is stone and that support for the dome structure rises from the sub-basement of the building. Therefore he doesn't anticipate any structural integrity issues with the dome itself, only with how the cast iron is attached to the dome. Discussion continued about the possibility of additional repair work and the likely response to unforeseen contingencies.
