In response to your request (attached) we have reviewed the proposed agreement. Conoco has responded as asked in our letter of May 31, 1988 letter, copy attached, which transmitted the comments of the City Attorney on the previously proposed agreement. Additionally , the anticipated cost of this item is included in the approved project budget for the project as presented to the City Council when they awarded the Construction m~_~ Contract for the project in the April 26, 1988 City Council ~ meeting. We recommend that this item be placed on the earliest available City Council agenda for their consideration. It is important that the City of Coppell and L.H. Lacy Co. execute the agreement as soon as possible in order to avoid unnecessary delays in the construction of the project. If the City Council approves execution of this agreement we will be happy to obtain the original agreement from you and transmit it to L.H. Lacy Co. for their execution. Once executed and returned by L.H. Lacy Co. we will return it to you for the City's execution and transmittal to Conoco. cc: H. Wayne Ginn, P.E. David M. Snyder, L.H.

Box 478 Coppell, Texas 75019 RE: DENTON TAP ROAD IMPROVEMENTS CITY OF COPPELL, TEXAS ..... ~._~//....~ .... Dear Mr. Ratliff: We have received your letter and construction plans concerning improvements to Denton Tap Road where it crosses the Conoco Inc. operated Con-Dor Pipe Line Company ("Con-Dor") 6-inch high pressure petroleum products pipeline. Conoco Inc. will permit construction across the pipeline upon the Contrac- tor and City of Coppell ("City") agreeing to the following requirements: 1. After review with our Engineering Department, we must take exception to your suggestion that the line will not require concrete coating. The pipeline is currently installed inside of steel casing under Denton Tap Road. This casing provides protection from external stress due to traffic; it also reduces the risk of damage to the pipe during installation of utilities, drain lines, etc. In addition, the casing provides a means of monitoring the integrity of the pipe and provides a conduit for pipe replacement if necessary. Extensions to the casing is not practical due to sags in existing line and because of cathodic protection considerations. Once the pipe is covered by the road it will no long be accessible for maintenance, therefore, we must require installation of tested, heavy-wall, concrete coated pipe under the roadway. 2. The concrete coated pipe will be installed under the roadway and will extend approximately 25 feet east and west of the construction bound- aries. The cost for this modification, estimated to be $40,000.00 as shown on Exhibit A, will be borne solely by the City of Coppell. We require 100 percent of the actual cost be paid within 30 days of receipt of an invoice after pipeline modifications are complete. The City will be charged for actual costs for pipeline modifications, whether higher or lower than the estimated costs. 3. Conoco Inc.'s Division Office in Lake Charles, Louisiana, must be provided with final construction drawings for all work which will affect the Con-Dot pipeline, including a plot plan and a profile along the pipeline centerline showing any grade work to be done. The current drawings do not show the extent of grade work to be done 5~r, Alan D. Rat!iff August 26, 1988 Page 2 beyond the limits of roadway. The profile should show the vertical distance between the Con-Dor line and any proposed grading. Upon receip~ of updated drawings, Conoco Inc. will revise the cost estimate to reflect any additional modifications required to the pipeline. 4. Ail utilities which cross the Con-Dor pipeline must pass underneath by a minimum of 12 inches. Any utilities which parallel the pipeline will maintain a minimum separation distance of 5 feet from the util- ities outside wall to the outside of the Con-Dor line. 5. Conoco Inc. will not allow the city or its contractor to use any material or equipment in the construction which in the opinion of the Con-Dor inspector would hinder or impair Con-Dor's ability to safely maintain and operate its line. 6. Con-Dor retains the right to adequately mark its pipeline with perma- nent line markers to insure public safety and the future safe opera- tion of the line and to meet Department of Transportation Regulation. 7. No engineering worRs, private or industrial dwellings, deep rooted plants, fences, other similar permanent structures will be allowed over any portion of the pipeline. 8. At any point along the pipeline where the existing grade profile will be lowered by the removal of earth, the Con-Dor line must be lowered to a depth which provides a minimum cover of 36 inches after final grading. 9. Con-Dor requires a minimum of 48 hours notice prior to any excavation, construction, or movement of equipment across its right-of-way so that its line can be staked to minimize the possibility of accidental damage. Additionally, Con-Dor personnel must be on site during exposure of the pipeline and during any work around the exposed line. 10. The City shall indemnify and hold Con-Dor harmless from and against any and all claims for injuries to person or persons or for damages to property arising directly or indirectly from work to be performed by the City or those under contract to the City near the Con-Dor pipe- line. 1!. The Contractor shall indemnify and hold Con-Dor harmless from and against any and all claims for injuries to person or persons or for damages to property arising directly or indirectly from work to be performed near the Con-Dor pipeline by the Contractor or its sub-contractor. 12. The City shall assume all responsibility for any and ali damages to the Con-Dor operated pipeline arising directly or indirectly from work to be performed by the City, its contractors or subcontractors. Mr. Alan D. Ratliff August~ °6, 1988 Page 3 13. Con-Dor shall be named as additional insured without any qualifica- tions or restrictions by the Contractor performing work near the Con-Dor pipeline. Contractor shall maintain in effect during work near the Con-Dor line the following insurance coverages: Public liability insurance covering all work to be performed near the pipeline, with bodily injury limits of not less than $100,000 as to any one person and $300,000 as to any one accident and with property damage limits of not less than $100,000 for each accident. Such insurance shall include coverage for all liability assumed by Contrac- tor working near the pipeline under contract with the City with limits of liability not less than those set out above. It shall be the City's obligation to see that each and every contrac- tor and subcontractor employed by it carries and pays for the same kinds and amounts of insurance as are required of the Contractor. A certified copy of all insurance policies requested shall be received at the Conoco Division office in Lake Charles with Con-Dot Pipe Line Company named as the certificate holder prior to the commencement of work. 14. The City of Coppell shall indemnify and hold Con-Dor harmless from and against any and all claims for damage to Denton Tap Road and associ- ated water and drainage lines arising directly or indirectly from work being performed by Con-Dor or its Contractors on the Con-Dor pipeline. To initiate work on the pipeline modifications to accommodate the proposed construction, please have a copy of this letter executed by an officer of the Contractor and the City of Coppell and return to me along with final construction drawings. Enclosed for your information are copies of the API Brochure, "What You Should Know About Petroleum Pipeline Safety". Please pass these along to the Contractor and Project Inspector.

Rhodes Director - Access and Regulations Concoco Inc. 1909 Southwood Drive Lake Charles, IA 70605 Re: Denton Tap Road Improvements From Belt Line Road to Sandy Lake Road, Coppell, Texas Dear Mr. Rhodes: This letter is in response to your letter of December 11, 1987, which contains Conoco's requirements for construction of the above captioned road improvements across your 6 - inch high pressure petroleum products pipeline, and an agreement pertaining to same. The City of Coppell's legal counsel has reviewed the letter and has made some suggestions which may help to further clarify the elements of the proposed agreement. It is suggested that Conoco state specifically what work it will perform, and what its responsibilities will be in regards to that work, separately from the work and responsibilities of the City. As currently written, our legal counsel had difficulty in determining who was responsible for what. In regards to the listed requirements of your December 11, 1987 letter we have no objections to items 1, 3, 4, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, and 13. The elements of item 1 need to be scheduled through the City of Coppell, and item 3 is covered by the drawings transmitted herewith. Referring to item 2 of your letter, we would like to modify the terms of payment as you and previously discussed. Instead of paying 100 % of the estimated cost for lowering your facilities 60 days prior to construction; the City would prefer to reimburse Conoco Inc. the cost of the work within 30 days of receipt of an invoice for the work. If you will recall, this is the procedure we used for the Moore Rd. Improvements project about two years ago. Item 5 is a little too vague for the City to agree to. Perhaps a more specific statement explaining which materials and equipment commonly used in road and utility construction would be considered a hindrance or impairment to safe operation and maintenance of your facilities will help to clarify this item. Item 14 is not acceptable to the City of Coppell in that it requires the City to indemnify Con-Dor and its Contractors from any and all claims arising directly or indirectly out of work being performed now as well as in the future on the Con-Dor pipeline. The City of Coppell feels that it would be more appropriate that the reference to "all future work" be discarded and that Conoco's contractors be required to carry the necessary liability insurance and be responsible for any damages that they may cause. We greatly appreciate your efforts in this effort to achieve an equitable agreement between the City of Coppell and Conoco, Inc. in order to allow the city to improve Denton Tap Road to provide a safe crossing of your facilities and the adjacent railroad. The construction of the road improvements will begin within the next two weeks or so, but the construction in the area of your facilities and the railroad crossing is not expected to begin within the next two months. Please review this information and respond as soon as possible. Please call us if you have any questions. Sincerely, z.L"/. John C. Karlsruher, P.E. Project Engineer cc: Alan D.

Although it is not clearly stated in the proposed agreement received from Conoco, it is my understanding that Conoeo's pipeline will probably have to be lowered and certain City utilities will be installed near the pipeline. I also understand that the work to be done on the pipeline itself will be done by Conoco at the City's expense with the City utilities being placed in the area by the City's contractors. " it appears that paragraphs i, 2, 3, 8, and 14 concern the work to be done by Conoco on their pipeline, and the remaining paragraphs deal with the City's placement of utilities within the general area of the pipeline by its contractors. The agreement on its face gives the impression that the City is going to be doing all of the work including the lowering and work on the pipeline. I note that Conoco has estimated the cost of work on the pipeline to be $40,000, which will be borne solely by the City of Coppell, however, in paragraph 3, they have agreed to revise the cost estimates upon reeeipt of updated drawings. I have no problem with paragraph 10 which is the City's agreement to indemnify and hold harmless Conoco for damages arising directly or indirectly from work to be performe¢~'by the City or those under contract to the City near the Con-l)or pipeline. Paragraph 11 requires that the City will have to obtain a similar indemnification agreement from its contractors who work on the project and require the contractor to maintain the liability insurance as provided for in paragraph 13. I have no problem with the City's indemnification agreement, provided the contractors also are required to so indemnify and maintain the public liability insurance. Mr. John C. I<arlsruher Page 2 May 16, 1988 It is my opinion that the indemnification provision in pargraph 14 of the proposed agreement is quite broad in favor of Conoco in that it provides that the City shall indemnify Conoco against any damage to Denton Tap Road and the City's utility lines arising out of the work being performed by Conoco or its contractors on the Conoco pipeline and states that "This indemnification shall apply to all future work," I think that the provision concerning the indemnification applying to all future work should be eliminated, and Conoeo's contractors should be required to carry liability insurance and be responsible for any damage they ~night cause. I hope this letter can give you some assistance in arriving at a final agreement with Conoco. If you have any questions, please give me a call.

The City shall assume all responsibility for any and all damages to the Con-Dor operated pipeline arising directly or indirectly from work to be performed by the City, its contractors or subcontractors. 13. Con-Dor shall be named as additional insured without any qualifica- tions or restrictions by the Contractor performing work near the Con-Dor pipeline. Contractor shall maintain in effect during work near the Con-Dor line the following insurance coverages: Mr. John Karlsruh December 11, 1987 Page 3 Public liability insurance covering all work to be performed near the pipeline, with bodily injury limits of not less than' $100,000 as to any one person and $300,000 as to any one accident and with property damage limits of not less than $100,000 for each accident.
