I spoke with Olin this morning and he said he didn't know why Klasmeyer had not started work
because they were cleared to start work last week. He said he would call Klasmeyer and call me back
today.
I had previously left messages with Rick Trevino and Olin Steel on Wednesday April 11th at 9:30 am
but neither bothered to return my call. I left another message with Rick this morning but I actually
spoke with Olin.
I guess if this goes on much longer without the relocation of their facilities, we will just have to cut and
remove the conflict areas and proceed with the project. This project and timetable should not have
been a surprise to Verizon. We sent 60% complete plans to them on March 8, 2002 and a relocation
letter to them on May 12, 2003. We followed that up with a Utility meeting on November 13, 2003,
where all utility companies were invited. We sent 95% complete plans to Verizon on December 9,
2004. I guess the list could go on but the point is that the utility companies were notified about this
project over five years aEO.
I'll let you know if Olin calls back with a new and improved timetable or if we just need to press ahead
regardless of what's in our way.

Freeport West?
