Go ahead and see if we can add the coffer dam cost and we will drop it if we don't need it.

I'll get the cost. Should we stick with the agenda item the way it is?

Check to see what the move in move out cost would be. It may be less expensive to build the cofferdam
so we can on with the project. Water release could bean ongoing issue with the weatherwe've had.

Ken,
Clay signed the contracts for this project on Monday. Craig Olden moved their equipment in today. They
called me a half hour ago and said that the water level is higher than it was when we met out there a
month ago. I looked on the USACOE web site and found that they are releasing 2295cfs from Lake
Lewisville. I called them and they expect to continue to release at that rate for about a week.
Olden is unable to begin their work due to the current water level. The options at this point is to wait a
week or so forthe water level to return to normal. Olden will be forced to haul off their equipment and haul
it back in later. They have not specifically mentioned it, but I suspect they will ask for compensation for
this additional move. The other option is to build a cofferdam to protect the work are from the water. They
are working on a proposal for that, but they verbally told me it would add $15,000 to $20,000 to the cost.

Right nowwe have on the next council agenda an item to ratifythe emergency contract. Ifwe decide to
wait, we may want to change that.
