time you are available to meet me on Monday to look at the intake
structure.

Michael,
The pumps at the intake structure have not run for many years.
I don't even know if they will run, so I don't think we can run them for
you on Monday. We can certainly meet out there for you to evaluate the
station.
As I stated in my previous email, we have an agreement in place
with the Billingsley Company, and the change order with AW will be
presented for approval at our City Council meeting on Tuesday. We
expect Council will approve this CO.
I will send you an official notification of approval of the CO
on Wednesday morning with copies of the document for your signatures. I
have no objection to you beginning work at this time, but the official
direction to proceed will come on Wednesday.
Thanks.

Keith,
Please send me something in writing telling us to
proceed with pumping the lake through the 42” line into the elm fork of
the trinity river. I would like to get all of this installed next week
but I need an approval from you.
Also, I would like to run the river pumps at the intake
structure and fill the 42” line and then turn off the pumps and verify
that all of the water drains back into the river. I have been told that
this is how the lake was drained a few years ago but I would like to
verify before we install our pump. Looking at the profile, the line
drops from elevation 501’ at North Lake to around 437’ at the trinity so
it should work without a problem. Can we set this up for first thing
Monday morning?
