We are not going to send our crew and crane in until Monday as it is going to take a full day, tomorrow, for your laborers and excavator to remove the snow from this site. And the crane company won't come out tomorrow due to the weather / road conditions. The forecast is good for the next few days so this should be the final delay in completing this installation. I understand your frustration but site preparation and access is your responsibility. We originally planned on 4 days for this installation and it is now turning into 6. Site conditions and weather have not worked in either yours or our favor. Let's work together and get this done! Thank you, Tami **The crane company asked that the area where they will be setting up the crane (just to the right of where he was originally set up) be leveled and scrapped of the mud that is on the surface. He'd like access to this location so he can drive straight in without having to make any turns to avoid getting stuck like he did last Friday.

I had an excavator go up there on Tuesday thinking that something would get done. I also had laborers go up there on Monday. No crane, no walls installed. A whole week goes by then I have to send my excavator up there again on Saturday. I just want to get this done so I will accommodate. But I already cleaned up the footings and brought an excavator up there why should I have to pay for this? Robert Caffrey PS Because I already paid you. Not really good for return business From: Tami Ackert Sent: Thursday, March 07, 2013 2:56 PM To: Robert; Wayne McAuliff Subject: Re: Installation Robert, New Canaan is expecting 1 - 3 inches of snow tonight and then another 1 -2 inches tomorrow mixture of snow and rain. I have my crew and crane scheduled to be there Saturday first thing in the morning but I need for you to have your laborers and excavator there as well for snow removal and to address any site accessability issues. If this can't happen please let me know because we will not return on Saturday if not. We will plan on finishing up the installation on Monday if all goes well on Saturday. Please make sure the site is protected and drained so there is no water present in the hole when we arrive. Thanks, Tami EFTA_R1_00802847 EFTA02145544 On 3/6/2013 6:04 PM, Robert wrote: Great.

I need the garage done to really get going. F m: T mi k • Sent: Tuesday, March 05, To: Robert; Wayne McAuliff; Art Ackert Jr. Subject: Re: Installation Robert, I understand what I said last Friday but the weather forecast has changed. I've attached the current forecast for New Canaan, CT so you can take a look, it doesn't look good. It's unfortunate that we are running into so many delays with this project and believe me I'd like it completed as much as you. Our last correspondence with Wayne was that we would check the weather and speak tomorrow afternoon.

We had a pump blow out and we had to hand shovel some cave ins; it was all done. What is the hold up? I don't get paid until the foundation is up. I never pay subs before they are done. Except for you guys. Dumb idea. We have good weather this Thursday. Half EFTA_R1_00802849 EFTA02145546 the week is gone let's get this done on Thursday Friday and Saturday. This is three weeks and I thought it was going to be three days. I have a framer coming and if I miss him I won't see him for 6 weeks. Robert Caffrey EFTA_R1_00802850 EFTA02145547
