7/l~a/84 <br />Page -9- <br />Councilman Leary inquired why the Venture <br />wanted this project completed by June 1st? <br />Mr. Shenk replied that the agreement that <br />they put in place in April, they would like <br />to keep in place without a struggle and they <br />feel this is a feasible, realitic way to do <br />it; and avoid a lot of hard questions in <br />doing so. Also, hopefully will show some <br />good will on the Venture's part in accelera- <br />ting one of its April commitments for the <br />good of the community. <br />Bill Schuler, Rocky Moun- Mr. Schulder stated that he did not disagree <br />tain Consultants with anything that had been said. KKBNA is <br />a good firm. He felt that with reasonable <br />weather conditions the project could be fast <br />trac:ked; however if we have another winter <br />likE~ last year's delays can be expected. <br />That= would be a caution to beware of with the <br />June lst deadlock. He also stated that the <br />Council has a list of projects that his firm <br />has been involved with to date, and included <br />in that is the Howard Berry Plant.

Council must make the <br />decsision, but he felt. their firm could have <br />the package completed very quickly on the <br />42" lines. The 12" interconnect line is <br />90°s completed. Rocky Mountain Consultants <br />started this project 3 months ago; prepared <br />the drawings for a 2MGD and 4MGD plant, and <br />had done basic hydraulic calculations and this <br />had been presented to City staff 2 months ago. <br />Their firm was waiting to hear from City staff <br />as to whether it would be a 2 or 4 MGD plant <br />and they were ready to proceed on final designs. <br />They have done nothing major on the 30" line <br />out of the plant; they had submitted some <br />alternative alignments to Homart to get their <br />input as to where they would like to see it <br />go since it goes across their property. He <br />pointed out in regard to the Howard Berry <br />plant, pumping was not a part of .that package; <br />it is not going to pump water to the high <br />zone. Howard Berry is a gravity plant to <br />feed the low and middle zones. The fact that <br />
