The Contractor is preparing to re-bid the work package for 800 MHz Communications System, needed for police and fire response in the facility. Contractor Schedule Current RCF Substantial Completion date is November 15, 2011. Current Turner progress schedule update shows a negative 204 day float in the project schedule, with the critical path running through the Project power-up, and commissioning and training activities. This is approximately a 1 month slip compared to what was reported on the last update, primarily due to electrical correction notices from Department of Labor and Industries. Commission approval being requested to issue up to an 80 calendar day contractual time extension to address excusable delays. Turner and Port staff is collaborating to remove the remaining obstacles to project power-up, along with implementing schedule revisions to improve commissioning and training activities to recover lost time. In addition, staff continues to authorize selective overtime for critical path activities.

Small operator area bid documents being finalized for advertisement in early mid August 2011.
