The contractor has <br />requested another change order, change order 2, for a request of 5 additional weeks (1.15 months) due to <br />delays in getting the correct microbiology started in the aeration basins. The total time added to the <br />construction contract from these two change orders is 175 days (5.65 months) and will result in additional <br />engineering fees that were not originally included in our proposal. Our original construction fee was for <br />$429,415 for a period of 13 months which equals approximately $33,000/month. Based on the addition <br />of the 173 days (5.65 months) to the construction contract we are requesting additional fees in the amount <br />of $186,450. I have included a copy of the two change orders with this letter for your reference. <br />We appreciate your consideration of our request and I am hopeful we can come to an agreement regarding <br />our construction services. If you have any questions regarding any of the above please do not hesitate to <br />give me a call. <br />Sincerely, <br />BOLTON & MENK, INC. <br />Seth A.
