Comments on Extension of Time of Completion for Casting Basin and Immersed Tunnel

Works

Referring to your letter No.ST-PCI-0932-06 dated 11 January 2006 we give our

comments as below and disapprove the captioned extension without the clarification.
1) Even if we deemed the delay of commencement of excavation was because of the
delay of relocation, we expected you could have the progress more than 4,000 m3 per
day to crash the duration before 1 month complying with our instructions such as the
improvement of equipment number and idleness including adequate pumping.
2) It is not clear the reason why the duration from the Dragging out to the Closure Joint
extends 3 months from 3 months at the original schedule to 6 months.
3) It is not clear the reason why the duration of the Trench Dredging extends 2 months
from 6 months at the original schedule to 8 months.
