wall valves here at Lock 4 haven’t been used since we’ve taken over this project site. At Lock 3, our lock guys have utilized those and say they work fairly well. So, we weren’t really ready to kill those wall valves at this point. So, looking down the line, we might look at doing another repair on those and reinstalling trash racks, pulling the valves out, reworking some of the valve journals, but right now we’ve decided not to install those cover plates. One other change order that is in process that will be a significant increase to the project will be those steel plates that are being used to address the cracks on those last two photographs; but, again, that’s in process and hasn’t been officialized yet. MR. GRAVES: And that will be welding only. We bought the steel. So, whatever the cost of the weld is what we’re going to be out. It’s pretty obvious that it had to be done. MR. HAMILTON: Project schedule contractually, should have final completion by November 1st. Obviously that’s coming up pretty quick on us and that’s one thing that we’ve had some concern over and have met with the contractor a couple of times in the last week to go over with them some of their ideas how they’re going to make up time
