Subject: Change Order#1 Addition of Abutment— Gravity Walls at Approaches
Dear Mr. riggs:
American Empire Bnidge has submitted and demonstrated the necessity to design and construct a gravity wall behind
the end cap on both sides of the Seaview and Harbour bridges. This wall is necessary as observed after demolition
began and discovered that there is no back-wall construction on the existing bridges. These walls are necessary to
secure the new beam placement as well as allow reconstruction of the roadway up to the new temporary bridge deck.
I have reviewed the pay application and I concur with the contractor's pay request in the amount of$80,014.00 for
the design and construction of 4 Abutment—Gravity Walls.
Sincerely,
PARSONS BRINC O
