Coronado Street Anaheim, CA 92807 PUBLIC WORKS DEPARTMENT P.O. BOX 1768, NEWPORT BEACH, CA 92658 -8915 (714) 644 -3311 SUBJECT: Bayside Drive Storm Drain Improvements (C -3198) Dear Mr. Thomas, As pointed out in my letter of October 25, 2000 (attached), the above City project's construction work was delayed due to the lack of response from Pacific Bell. City records confirm that your office was notified many months before the City Contractor started the City work. A storm drain plan transmittal letter, a "Prepare to Relocate Notice," and a set of plans were sent to your office from DMc Engineering, the City's engineering firm for the project, on May 31, 2000, via National Messenger Inc., (receipt attached). This notification was well ahead of the start of City construction work. Although Pacific Bell was notified by letter on September 28, 2001, your staff failed to attend the preconstruction conference on October 3, 2000. Construction delay costs were incurred from October 16 through October 26, 2000. Your letter of October 30, 2000, stated that Pac Bell received the letter of May 31, from DMc Engineering, but plans were not received. Both the letter and the notification from DMc clearly states the contrary as verified by the receipt. Your letter also states that regarding the preconstruction meeting that the only thing Pacific Bell needed were the plans. Pacific Bell had the plans well ahead of time and if the original plans had been misplaced your office should have requested a replacement set. Enclosed is an invoice for $22,229.35, which is the amount of the change order (attached) paid to the contractor for the cost of construction delays and the costs of having the City contractor adjust the Pacific Bell facilities. 3300 Newport Boulevard, Newport Beach Please sign and return this letter along with your check to: City of Newport Beach Attention: R. Gunther Public Works Department 3300 Newport Boulevard Newport Beach, CA 92663 You may contact R. Gunther of my staff at (949) 644 -3311 if you have any questions. Sincerely, Bill Patapoff, P.E.
