These costs will result from time committed to <br />meetings at the call of the Commissioning Agent. Since the Development Team has as yet not selected a <br />Commissioning Agent, it is difficult to estimate the level of involvement required. <br />We propose that time required by the commissioning process to attend meetings at the call of the <br />Commissioning Agent and complete tasks assigned by the Commissioning Agent, be billed at our then current <br />hourly rates. We estimate that the fees could amount to approximately $5,000 for Intertace Engineering and <br />a further $2,500 for Arbuckle Costic Architects. It should be noted that the amount estimated by Interface <br />Engineering would not be billed, if through the selection process, they also become the Commissioning Agent. <br />Clearly, if they are the Commissioning Agent for the County, they wouid not need to caii themselves to related <br />meetings. Oliver has further indicated that it would be advantageous for the County and SAMTD, if Interface <br />Engineering were retained to pertorm the testing and balancing work as well as the commissioning. <br />Should you have any questions regarding the above, please call. <br />Sincere,~~ <br />/--- ~ - <br />Leonard Lodder, A.I.A. <br />Architect <br />LL:Ib <br />cc: John Whittington, Salem Area Mass Transit <br />Craig Lewis, Melvin Mark Development Company <br />9828.1 A <br />
