executed. The construction contract with MidMountain was executed on May 28, 2010. NTP
estimated to be issued in early July. No impact to completion date or RCF opening. 
Final review comments continue to be integrated that requires significant revisions to the
specifications of Bus Maintenance Facility/CNG Fueling Facility design. Port staff has prepared a
plan to accelerate the construction of the BMF to support an overall completion date in early March
2012. In order to close the gap between completion of the RCF (January 2012) and BMF (March
2012) the recommendation is to extend the tenant improvement schedule so that the RCF opens in
March 2012. This recommended plan was be presented and accepted by the Rental Car Industry at the
June Technical Meeting.

Associates, Inc. (DEA).

Rental Car Facility Program Activation: 
Significant movement of the opening date has an impact on training and hiring new staff. If moves
forward need to know so can hire staff earlier. If moves back, need to know prior to hiring large numbers
for staff. 
Program Schedule: 
RCF estimated to be complete by the end of 2011 with the opening planned for March 2012. 
BMF completion is estimated to be in March 2012. 
ORI completion is estimated to be December 2011 and signage completed in early 2012 to coincide
with the RCF opening.

Program Cost Forecast and Budget: 
The projected program budget is $419,306,000 and breakdown by project and expenditures is shown
on the attached slide 4. 
The current Turner contract value including all change orders is shown on the attached table slide 3. 
The updated CFC actual collections and projections are shown on the attached slide 5. 
The ORI is under budget by approximately $3,229,000 based upon low bid. 
The BMF remains within budget based on 90% cost estimate. 
Risk Factors: 
Finalizing the revised Program Schedule. 
Accelerated BMF construction schedule may be delayed due to site conditions or Port resource
constraints. Reviewing project specifications to address site conditions and reviewing staffing plans to
support the schedule acceleration. 
Coordinating with Utility companies for major relocations for both BMF and ORI projects, which
require a number of agreements with varying levels of authorization. 
Trade stacking could be a concern as work within the RCF begins in earnest.
