Austin Bridge & Road forwarded this same information to Eric Little on Friday and he placed it into system for us. We will speak with AFCO, but all future submittals/RFI’s should come through Austin Bridge & Road. Based on our Preconstruction meeting, these will be submitted to UDR. Please return the submittals/RFI’s directly to Austin. If there is any question regarding a submittal that would most easily be addressed by the supplier, Austin does not have an issue with Halff communication directly with the supplier to expedite the review process. I think our supplier jumped the gun a little here, I apologize for any misunderstanding.

No. 10667 Todd and Eric, Yesterday, we received an RFI from AFCO Steel in Little Rock, AR, regarding the use of a substitute slide bearing for the arches. While we are willing to review this submittal, we wanted to make sure it went through the proper channels, which is why we're forwarding it to your attention. We have two simple questions: 1. To whom should we send our response to the attached RFI? 2. Who will be coordinating future submittals for this project: Austin or UDR? Please let me know and we'll respond appropriately.
