071211 - Leonard will compute the area of the Schnitzer and the Todd

071213 - purpose of determining a quantity to budget.

071226 -     [See follow up discussion with Tom Keesling, ref SDS 11 line 128.]
071227 -
071228 - There was discussion of including in the RFP another item for debris
071229 - removal by the Antone once the hard material has been encountered.
071230 -
071231 - Marcus suggested not including such an item, but rather have the
071232 - Contractor submit a claim for extra expense, if any, in handling any
071233 - such debris that might be encountered.
071234 -
071235 - A similar approach might be NOT to include a pay item for increased
071236 - cost of dredging in combination with debris removal, item 4. It can be
071237 - part of the debris removal cost, item 1.
071238 -
071239 - General estimates based on discussions with the Contractor indicate
071240 - this RFP may cost from $500K to $1.5M.
071241 -
071242 - Leonard will issue an initial RFP for approximately $100K so Dutra can
071243 - mobilize and commence work immediately.
