Loc hhead <br />Ezecuove Director <br />Michael B Long <br />D rv ismn Director <br />RE: Meeting of September 26, 1994, at the Division office, <br />regarding your claims for payment on disputed work items pertaining <br />to the GEC Project RN-MINES-322. <br />Dear Mr. Meese: <br />Thank you for meeting with Dave Bucknam, John Nelson and me on <br />September 26 to discuss the disputed claims and to provide <br />additional reasons why you feel that your claims are justified. <br />After the meeting, Dave, John and I sharpened our pencils and <br />considered the merrits of each of your claims. The following <br />outline addresses each of your claims, as you have made them known <br />to us, and provides our reason for adjusting in your favor or <br />denial of the claim: <br />1. East Pit Topsoil Pile containing approximately 5900 cubic <br />yards. <br />a. Colorado West Leasing feels justified in <br />claiming additional compensation for moving <br />this pile due to an error in the map and a <br />personal belief that this pile would be moved <br />using hourly equipment rental possibly to be <br />used on Chen's Hill. <br />b. The Division acknowledges that the map <br />portrayed topsoil stockpiles as a single <br />circle, both on the north end of Chen's Hill <br />and the East Pit area. All contractors who <br />visited the site during the prebid were shown <br />multiple topsoil piles at both locations. The <br />two known topsoil stockpiles at the East Pit <br />area where shown to all contractors during the <br />prebid meeting and were escorted to each East <br />Pit topsoil pile during our walk and <br />discussion of the project. At no point did <br />our Division ever state that the Contractor <br />only had to move a single topsoil pile or <br />imply that these piles would be moved using <br />
