051104 - Contract Design Submission
051105 -
051106 - Received from Teri ref DIT 1 which is based on the draft ref OF 2,
051107 - submitted yesterday. ref SDS 15 9700  This is COE serial letter #0128.
051108 - The language of the serial letter is slightly different from the
051109 - draft.  Serial letter #0128 says...
051110 -
051111 -      During the meeting there was not enough time for review and
051112 -      discussion, however subsequent review revealed the need for
051113 -      further work on this submittal to conform to the Operations Plan
051114 -      and understandings agreed upon in discussions with UPRR, and set
051115 -      out in the attached notes (see line 061103).
051116 -
051117 -   ...the draft says...
051118 -
051119 -      During the meeting there was not enough time for review and
051120 -      discussion, however subsequent review revealed the need for
051121 -      further work on this submittal to conform the Operations Plan to
051122 -      understandings agreed upon in discussions with UPRR, as set out
051123 -      in the attached notes, see line 061103.
051124 -
051125 -   ...the language in the draft intended to convey that the Operations
051126 -   Plan needed to be changed, whereas the serial letter seems to
051127 -   indicate the Operations Plan is okay.  This is an error because the
051128 -   Operations Plan needs to be changed.

051132 - Open Cut Sewer Line Location
051133 -
051134 - Reviewed Dutra's Navy Sewer line submittal, transmittal #64, for the
051135 - Open Cut method.  Marc McGovern noticed that Dutra's drawing shows the
051136 - line is moved 500' from the contract alignment, which is incorrect.
051137 -

0513 -
0514 - 1521 called Jim Galli
0515 -
051501 - Jim said he had not seen COE's serial letter #129, ref DIP 5, faxed to
051502 - Dutra today, per Teri above, confirming the changes needed in the Open
051503 - Cut design, which we reviewed jointely on 961230. ref SDS 13 0869, and
051504 - discussed yesterday. ref SDS 15 2978
051505 -
051506 - Jim said he tried to comply with the points per the telecon yesterday,
051507 - except he did not include a reference in the drawings to the
051508 - construction steps in the Operations Plan, because it did not seem to
051509 - be necessary.
051510 -
051511 - Upon discussion, Jim feels it would be helpful to include this
051512 - information.  He will revise Dutra's submittal to make this
051513 - correction.
051514 -
051515 - Jim advised that someone in Dutra's office was given the materials,
051516 - who is not familiar with the project, and was asked to review them for
051517 - clarity.  Jim reported this person was able to follow the explanation
051518 - in the Operation Plan and correlate it to the details in the drawing.
051519 - ..
051520 - Jim said he made corrections to Dutra's submittal based on
051521 - recollection and his notes of our discussion on 961230, and that
051522 - Dutra's internal review shows the submittal meets the objectives for
051523 - corrections set on 961230. ref SDS 13 0869  He feels all of the
051524 - corrections have been made and so it will expedite the work if Dutra
051525 - makes the submittal without reviewing the record.
051526 -
051527 - There was discussion that reliance on recollections of conversations
051528 - at previous events, to "expedite," has not worked well, and that this
051529 - experience indicates Jim should obtain COE serial letter #129 dated
051530 - today, ref DIT 2, and check Dutra's submittal against it for
051531 - completeness, rather than rely on recollections and personal notes of
051532 - conversation, since ref DIT 2 will be the basis for review.
051533 -
051534 - Jim recalled this point was made at the Contract Admin meeting on
051535 - 961230. ref SDS 12 4729
051536 -
051537 -     [On 970107 Bob Johnston cited benefit of SDS. ref SDS 16 4953]
051538 -
051539 - Jim advised that Dutra's transmittal, which is due today on the Open
051540 - Cut method, has already been taken to Tom White at the Oakland Project
051541 - office.  He will verify that it conforms with COE serial letter #129,
051542 - ref DIT 2, and, if it does not, he will revise and resubmit it on
051543 - Monday at the schedule review meeting.
051544 -
051545 -     [On 970907 Jim confirmed submittals were issued. ref SDS 16 2895]
051546 -
051547 - Marc asked about the incorrect alignment of the sewer line, shown 500
051548 - feet away from the contract location?
051549 -
051550 - Jim said this an error in the initial drawing.  He corrected it in
051551 - this second submission.
