Home My Public Portal AboutRE_ Marina Loft Transmission Redirect (2) Renee Basel From:John Zoerhof <jzoerhof@HYPOWERINC.COM> Sent:Tuesday, October 15, 2013 11:07 AM To:Danny Brannon Subject:RE: Marina Loft Transmission Redirect It may be because they had planned a 10’ set back from the RR ROW for the building. That would make sense with the numbers.

The line going south down the tracks is framed on the west side which causes them to need more right of way. They should frame the line on the east side for the portion south of the river. FYI….We worked for the City on all those small aluminum docks along the river in this area (in the bend to the northwest, and on the east side of the railroad track.) I have walked this area not so long ago. Danny P. Brannon, P.E.

Meaning the RR side. Not sure why. We had discussed more structures to limit blow out 1 Thanks, John Zoerhof Division Manager - Power Division Direct 954.935.8618 Cell 954.448.0369 From: Danny Brannon \[mailto:DBrannon@BnGEngineers.com\] Sent: Tuesday, October 15, 2013 10:47 AM To: John Zoerhof Subject: RE: Marina Loft Transmission Redirect You can also reduce the blow-out by adding more structures.

Depending on constructability and where the bore has to run, it could run higher.

So maybe this would cost $250,000 plus removal costs. Underground will cost $250,000 more or less for the bore, and probably another Million or more for the cable and cable termination 2 structures. And they will be running down the middle of your property. The last one I did was 1800 feet in the open, and it cost 3 Million to put it underground. Same voltage, etc. Danny P. Brannon, P.E.

Please advise which schedule you are both available for a conference call. Thank you Hector From: John Zoerhof <jzoerhof@HYPOWERINC.COM> Sent: Monday, October 14, 2013 3:44 PM To: Danny Brannon Cc: Hector Torres Subject: Marina Loft Transmission Redirect 3 Good afternoon Danny, rd Recently we talked about a development in Fort Lauderdale along the New River near SW 3 Ave. This is being spearheaded by Cymbal Development. I have copied the contact, Hector Torres here and attached his contact information as well. Basically, to make a long story short, they have been approved to move forward with the planning portion of a large improvement project on the south side of the New River which will include relocation of the overhead transmission line presently crossing the waterway and associated property. Many options have been discussed which Hector can fill you in rd on, but a couple include directional bore underneath the waterway or OH relocation of the TX line to SW 3 Ave with an upper TX and Lower Distribution line. FPL will be doing the engineering study based upon the agreed options and that is where Hector and Cymbal Development need some help. Your understanding of the requirements, language and most importantly the process by which these issues are gleaned out within FPL can assist greatly with moving things forward in an organized and efficient manner. I have given your contact information to them and you can expect a call very soon. , Regards John Zoerhof Division Manager - Power Division Direct 954.935.8618 Cell 954.448.0369 954.978.9300 – Main 954.978.8666. - Fax Please consider the environment before printing this e-mail  NOTICE: This email is intended solely for the use of the individual to whom it is addressed and may contain information that is privileged, confidential or otherwise exempt from disclosure.
