Box 541297 Dallas, TX 75354-1297 Re: Denton Tap Road Improvements from Sandy Lake Road to Denton Creek Coppell, TX Dear Mr. McAvoy: We have reviewed your letter of September 20, 1988 regarding the requirement that 2000 psi concrete be placed between the barrels of the 2-8'x4' and 2-7'x4' Precast Reinforced Concrete Box Culverts for storm sewer line "D". It is the intent of our plans and specifications, as stated in our letter of September 9, 1988, that the 2000 psi concrete placed between the barrels of the box culverts for their entire length. We do not disagree with your interpretation of the state specifications, but we must point out that Items 401 and 462 have been specifically modified in the Special Provisions, Section 07500 of the Contract, to suit the intent of the design mentioned above. Therefore there is no need for any unit pricing for the backfill materials whether between the barrels or not. You will find the Special Provision to Item 401 - EXCAVATION AND BACKFILL FOR SEWERS on page 22 of Section 07500, and the Special Provision to Item 462 - CONCRETE BOX CULVERTS on page 30 of Section 07500. We appreciate your cooperation and your professional approach to the work of this project. Please call me if you have questions. Sincerely, Project Engineer P.Eo CC: H. Wayne Ginn, P.E.
