I have instructed the bidders to only contact them once they have been awarded the project to discuss the logistics of their occupancy of this property; meaning there will only be one contractor contacting Intercontinental. I have provided Intercontinental with plan sheets. Regarding BNSF, I have informed the necessary parties of the construction & have provided them plan sheets. Our existing agreement with BNSF for having the water main in its existing location allows for the work to be performed. I have verified this with their permitting organization. We will have the contractor coordinate the necessary BNSF Flagmen that must be on site during the construction.

The pre-bid meeting that occurred the morning of November 14th for the Phase 1 abandonment was discussed at the Board Meeting. It was brought to the Levee District’s attention at the pre-bid meeting that coordination efforts with Intercontinental and BNSF Railroad were being placed on the Contractor as a requirement. At the pre-bid meeting you also discussed that only verbal approval had been obtained from Intercon. The Levee District requests that coordination with Intercontinental and BNSF Railroad be provided by Missouri American Water directly. The Levee District believes that direct coordination with both these stake holders is critical to the success of this abandonment project. The Levee District is concerned that the approach of requiring Contractors to coordinate with Intercon and BNSF will require multiple contractors contacting them without their familiarity with the project. The Levee District requests that Missouri American Water contact Intercon and BNSF directly and provide them, at a minimum, with a set of plans for their input and familiarity with the project. Also, the Levee District requests that BNSF and Intercontinental be included in the pre-construction meeting. Feel free to contact me with any questions or comments. Thanks, Jason Jason D.
