From: Nathan Myhrvold Sent: Friday, October 17, 2014 4:47 PM To: jeffrey E. Subject: odd question Do you know anybody who can expedite putting in a ga= line in Manhattan? Here is the background. A friend of mine is a chef in Manhattan, who is in t=e middle of renovating a restaurant. The landlord is convertin= the building from oil heat to natural gas, and was supposed to put in a n=w gas line for the kitchen equipment in the restaurant. However, the landlord didn't put the request in wi=h ConEd when they should have. This was only just discovered, and ap=arently conversions like this are very low priority for ConEd so they are =eing told 4-5 months for the gas line. This may bankrupt my chef friend. The landlord in theory is responsible= and that may help, but the best solution would be to get the gas line put=in. There may be some way to expedite this through ConEd or the myri=d city regulations etc. If you have an idea, my friend (and I) would be grat=ful... Nathan 1 EFTA_R1_01651513 EFTA02516509
