Mr. L. R. Maag - Las Vegas / Los Angeles - May 13, 1953 (CG - Mr* B. B* Bennett) I requested Mr* Renwick some time ago prepare an estimate of the cost of constructing thteo Moanvee l Marr,g eA pdiapmeson liinn eth ee xptreonpdoisnegd f rsoamle thtoe tehaset Wlaitneer Doifs ttrhiec tl,a ndasl,o ngw hithceh asreec tiinocn lluidneed to a point approximately on the westerly line of the shop area, and there connecting with the 16" and 2htt lines now in place. I think this line is more carefully outlined and described in the proposed agreement with the District* is my recollection that some time ago you did some figuring on this lyionue ,t o agnod aosve ar myaotutre prr eovfi ocuhse cfki gounr Mers* iAfd aymosuo nh'asv ef isgoumre,e s ofI iwfo unlodt ,like prepare new figures on the cost of the line. 3* Aclelrotwa iant gieesn eorfo uwsa gceo ntsicnagleesn,t faancdt ootrh etro fcaocvteorr st hew huinch­might increase the cost* I would say that this con ­tingent item should he not less than 10$ and in the circumstances probably 15$ would be safer* As the essential points in the proposed agreement have now been decided upon and we are hopeful of getting all the documents executed within the shortest possible time, I would appreciate your making this job one of first importance* While Mr* Adamson may have these figures all prepared, it In preparing these figures, you should remember that 1* It may be a year or so before the line is actually constructed. 2* That your costs should be based on the use of the most expensive pipe available (probably cast iron), and Wm* Reinhardt.
