                Dutra Transmittal #63 for Contract Design Crossing Under RR Track


Dear Mr. Johnston:


This confirms understandings from the Contract Administration meeting on
December 30, 1996.  You met with

Mr. Leonard SooHoo
in our Resident Office and
submitted the subject transmittal.  During the meeting there was not enough
time for review and discussion, however subsequent review revealed the need for
further work on this submittal to conform to the Operations Plan and
understandings agreed upon in discussions with UPRR, and set out in the

attached notes
(see line 061103).


Please make these corrections and resubmit by January 7, 1997, to permit COE
review prior to submission to UPRR on January 10, as set out in

COE serial letter #0123
dated December 23, 1996.


Sincerely,




Michael J. Murphy

Acting Chief

Construction Service Branch
