4. The ongoing nature of construction work will be
that additional.changes will be needed and that the cost
of estimated changes may vary. As examples of this, the
following is forecast from GSA for your information*
a. The actual change order cost for the bus
duct work has been negotiated down from $100,000
to approximately $89,000.
b. The explosion proofing work for the Battery
Room has been reexamined and redesigned. The final
cost for this work is now expected to drop from
$10,000 down to the $2,000 - $3,000 range.
c. The need to increase the depth of the acid
drain pit now appears to be unnecessary and may not
become a change.

d. An areaway shown on the drawings to be
existing does not in fact exist. To construct
the areaway is estimated to be in the $4000 -
$6,000 range.
e. A temporary wall may be required around
the air handler that is installed to serve Phase
II on a temporary basis to reduce the impact-of
Phase II construction on an operational Phase I
area,
S. I hope that this information will be helpful to
you in tracking the site preparation increment of Project
SAFE. If you desire, I can provide you with an updated
accounting on a quarterly basis for the remainder of the
site preparation work for Phase I and for Phase II. The
update would be in essentially the sane format as this
ne,noraaiadu -. Should you need further information, please
advise.
