Box 2000 Lubbock, Texas 79457 Re: City of Lubbock Quirt Avenue Overpass Dear Mr. Bertram: . We are pleased to advise you that the resident project representative we are planning to assign to the referenced project is Mr. Robert J. Field. Mr. Field has been involved in the heavy construction industry for more than thirty years. Mr. Field has served as resident project represen- tative, survey party chief, estimator and construction superintendent on numerous construction projects involving the construction of bridges, high- ways, streets, drains, sewers, reservoirs, water and wastewater improve- ments, airports and dams. Mr. Field's experience includes work in Massachusetts, Maine, New York, Illinois and Texas. Mr. Field was employed by Parkhill, Smith & Cooper, Inc. in April, 1982 and has served as resi- dent project representative on various water, wastewater, street and air- port construction projects in Lubbock and the surrounding area. Mr. Field's experience in construction of highway bridges and other heavy construction projects qualifies him to serve in the capacity of resident project representative on the Quirt Avenue Overpass, coupled with periodic site visits by a representative of the bridge design division of Henningson, Durham & Richardson. We also wish to advise you that we plan to use Wilson Surveying Co. for construction surveying needs. The construction contract requires the Contractor to furnish all surveys necessary to provide horizontal and ver- tical lines and grades to construct the work. Any construction period sur- veys performed by Wilson Surveying Co. for the City will be authorized through our office, only for "spot-checking" the accuracy of staking and construction performed by the Contractor. The testing laboratory we plan to use is Terra Testing, Inc. The lab will only test materials delivered to the site and report results of material tests required to insure compliance with the project specifications. The construction contract provides for payment for all required preconstruction tests and all failing construction tests by the Contractor. 4010 AVENUE R • LUBBOCK, TEXAS 29412 • PHONE 806-747-016I ATCHESON.
