Subject: NCSX Power Systems - PDR on DC Transmission from D to C Site 

Hi
The earlier memo is being re-transmitted to convey that this will be the 
Preliminary Design Review on the subject. Set of Prints of the drawings are 
available with Rick vanKirk. All are encouraged to get a set of B-Size 
prints of these drawings.

As conveyed earlier Al von Halle will chair the review. Following will be 
the review committee members:

C. Neumeyer
R. Parsells
L. Dudek
H. Carnevale
M. Viola
J. Levine or designated Safety representative
S. Ramakrishnan

Please note that a sub-contract was awarded to Burns Engineering to 
engineer the system.

The preliminary design review will be held on February 17th at 13:30 hours 
in LSB B-318, to discuss the preliminary drawings submitted by Burns 
Engineering for the DC Transmission towers from D to C Site for the NCSX 
Power system. These drawings are available from Rick van Kirk (x 2350).
Please make it convenient to attend.

The important point to note is that the transmission line crosses two roads 
( similar to the existing RF Line towers). The clearance of the base of the 
structural member of the tower is shown as 18' and that for the cable tray 
is 20'.  The route has been developed in close coordination with Ronnie 
Koon who identified the approximate location of underground utilities. 
Based on the chosen locations of the tower bases (after the finalization of 
the design),  Ronnie Koon will place markers in these locations. This will 
facilitate a prospective sub-contractor to identify proposed locations. 
Also before the final digging permit is given, further Survey will be 
arranged by Facilities Department to insure that the task is performed 
SAFELY and without damaging existing utilities.

All concerns that are submitted via chits will be addressed and resolved, 
after which Burns Engineering will be asked to submit a final set of 
drawings for the project. Subsequently an FDR will be held on the subject. 
FDR will essentially confine to the PDR chits and their resolution.
