This is entirely up to Clay on whether to accept your change order. I have left him several messages but have not heard from him today. Andrew – you may want to run by his office and try to find him and discuss this change order with him. ________________________________ From: Andrew Rolph [mailto:arolph@ntexcon.com] Sent: Tuesday, April 20, 2010 12:08 PM To: zackf; Bruce Dunne Cc: 'Eric T.

As of right now, I have trucks set up to mobilize my crew and equipment… If I don’t hear anything back by 2 pm I will have to cancel the haul trucks so I don’t incur unnecessary costs. I know there is a lot of pressure from the school district to have this work complete by the 1st so please let me know a.s.a.p. Thanks, Andrew D. Rolph North Texas Contracting 4999 Keller Haslet Rd.

The sewer that runs between the canopy and the building will be extremely difficult as to not damage existing items and avoid obstructions. It is also anticipated that the entire area around the tanks will be pea gravel and subject to sloughing, etc… See if this is more reasonable and let us know. We are hesitant to believe that there will only be one telephone crossing through the parking lot, but we’ll see.

What I am saying is (in my opinion) the sewer work in Vitruvian Way and across the Gas Station property (with the only utility crossing in this area being a underground telephone line 5’ above the sewer line) is no different than what you installed previously. ________________________________ From: Zach Fusilier [mailto:zfusilier@ntexcon.com] Sent: Tuesday, April 20, 2010 8:26 AM To: Bruce Dunne Cc: 'Eric T.

It will take 4-5 days to install a few hundred feet through the gas station and across spring valley. We cannot do the sewer across spring valley while crossing 4-5 major utilities for the same prices we have in place for sewer down a closed side of Vitruvian. We priced Vitruvian sewer and on many days laid 150-250 LF per day. We will spend a minimum of 3 days in Spring Valley to lay 75 LF. It is also important for everyone to remember that this was originally to be bored. I solicited seven subcontractor’s to price the bore and the lowest out of the 5 that bid was $ 325 / LF no including bore pits. This would have been a $ 30,000 addition on top of the sewer costs. The City and UDR is not only saving money by open cutting but they are also getting the sewer I by the end of the month. This being factored along with the savings from the original bore installation I hope will prove reasonable.

I also do not understand your request for additional compensation merely for utility crossing and for gas station crossing. Would you explain your reasoning? Clay and Eric – What are your thoughts regarding this additional request. ________________________________ From: Zach Fusilier [mailto:zfusilier@ntexcon.com] Sent: Tuesday, April 20, 2010 7:05 AM To: Bruce Dunne Cc: 'Eric T.

Please let us know if approved so we can begin this morning or make arrangements to work on the under drain instead that I believe is approved. Also, can you verify that CO # 6 will be approved soon as to allow for April billing on the items we are completing. Can you update us on the retaining wall approval as well since we can begin this soon if approved.
