fourth quarters. The overall project rate continues to trend closer
to the national industry
rate of 2.00.
The following key milestones were reached in the 4th quarter:
- Metro North Railroad (MNR) took over beneficial occupancy and
opened the 245
Park Avenue Entrance on October 21, 2013. The new entrance to Grand

CM004 Contract Status
April 1, 2014
Gantry Crane in service in December, one month later than
previously forecasted, due to Subcontractor issues
Shaft 1 punch-list work started December, 30 days behind schedule
due to crane delays
AT-1 punch-list began in October as previously forecasted
Below grade steel completed in December
Above ground intumescent painting and building façade
installation complete. CMU installation is 90% complete,
expected completion January 2014, two months behind
schedule due to the gantry crane delay and Contractor
progress.
245 Park Avenue Entrance: Beneficial Use was achieved October
21, as planned. Punch list is ongoing and is expected to be
completed on January 31, 2014.
2. Critical Issues:
Structural Steel – below grade steel installation completed
in December. It was delayed one month by the gantry crane
completion and contributed to the building completion delay.
Intumescent paint is approximately 85% complete, and the
subcontractor has not been on site since December 1 due to cold
temperatures
3. Mitigation:
Weekly meetings are held to monitor progress and mitigate any
slippages
The south side street utility work is being removed from the
contract
Contractor will complete work in time to meet handover to CM005 as
necessary
The balance of intumescent painting will not hold up
completion of the rest of work, and could be completed as
a punchlist item
4. 1st Quarter ’14 Look Ahead: 44th Street Vent Plant: Complete all
work by April 1, a two month
loss since the last quarterly report. This is due to the gantry
crane delay and slow Contractor progress.

have
lost a month in the last quarter due to slow Contractor
performance. Continued subway roof closure work and
modifications to the existing air tunnel, both 95% complete
with 30 days behind schedule.
Slab on grade concrete placement is over 99% complete, with
only slight amounts of change order work to complete
Continued CMU wall, door frame and concrete header

Continued CMU wall, door frame and concrete header
construction. It is 60% complete and two months behind
schedule due to slow Contractor performance.
MV transformers and unit substation components were
installed this quarter, two months behind last quarter’s
forecast
Air Handling units were installed in November, slightly ahead
of the forecast last quarter
2. Critical Issues:
SCADA delay costs are expected to be finalized in January
Switchgear delivery is expected in February but has lost a
month in the quarter. This and SCADA are driving the critical
path.
The Contractor issued a CPM with a Substantial Completion
date of February 27, 2014. This was followed by updates with
Substantial Completions of April 1 and then February 28th.
The schedules were rejected for contract non-compliance. The
CM feels that those dates cannot be met.
3. Mitigation: SCADA unilateral modification to capture time
related portion
of SCADA delay has been issued to the Contractor, and caps
the impact due to SCADA at 308 calendar days
The CM is meeting weekly with the Contractor to address
critical issues
Complete subway roof closure and air tunnel modifications by
the end of January 2014, a loss of one month this quarter
Complete CMU work in mid-March, a loss of two months this
quarter
Continue HVAC and plumbing installation; it was delayed by
YCC until January, a loss of two months in the quarter

Description: Procure LIRR and Amtrak Force Account material in
support of Stage 2 construction. LIRR will manage and operate
the project warehouse with ESA oversight. Example of materials
include: Track - switches, rail, concrete ties and ballast;
Third-
Rail & Power – rail, cables, boards, brackets, wire, power
connectors, bus bar; Signal Equipment – switch machines,
cables,
signals, relays, motor generators, heaters, troughs, impedance
bonds; and Structures – signal bridges, retaining walls etc.;
Communications – equipment, wire, cables, and poles.
Materials at Warehouse Storage Area.
Progress, Schedule and Cost
LIRR procured all 17 switches and they are to be
delivered from now until the spring of 2014 due to
changes with the installation schedule. Also
reviewing alternate locations with expanded
facilities for delivery, building and storage.
Bill of Materials (BOMs) for VHA/L02 is an
average of 83.7% procured. This percentage was
recalculated based on the average of Amtrak and
LIRR combined. Deliveries continue in coordination
with the construction schedule.
Cost: Table shows value of awards to date. An overall
VHL02 savings is expected due to large scale advance
procurement for Stage 2 materials. The budget of VHL02
was increased to purchase two motor generators for
Harold signal power separation. Meetings are being held
regarding contract purchase and award of the motor
generators.

Harold and Point CILs – (VH051 Part 1) Oct, Nov, Dec ‘13

Description: This includes the procurement of seven Harold
Interlocking Central Instrument Locations (CILs) and one Point
Interlocking
CIL and the purchase of a fully operational Vital
Microprocessor-Based Interlocking Control System for the referenced
interlockings. This
system will operate the new Harold Interlocking configuration and
eventually connect to the new GCT tunnels.
POINT Battery Hut Exterior.
Schedule:
1. Progress: Currently, six of the eight CILs have been delivered
to
the project by Ansaldo. The POINT, H4 and H5 CILs have been
set on-site with final preparations being made to place H3 and
H6
CILs. Submittals for the final two CIL locations, H1 and H2,
have
been received and are under review.
2. Critical Issues:
Program Plan (RSPP) and the Informational Filing (IF) for the
Communications and Synchronization Printed Circuit Boards
remains the major critical issue. The LIRR will forward their
modified, conditionally approved, RSPP to the FRA and
continue its work responding to questions and comments from
the FRA on the IF. Per previous correspondence, the FRA
wrote that a Product Safety Plan (PSP) would be required. A
subsequent FRA clarification letter noted that the IF should
be
adequate. No cutovers can take place without FRA acceptance
of both the RSPP and the IF.
Constant changes to the Harold footprint in order to
mitigate/
improve construction sequencing and/or perceived operational
issues are resulting in additional cost and schedule impacts
to
both the vital signal system and non-vital supervisory
control
system. Scope changes are absorbing limited signal design
resources and increasing the probability of design errors.
3. Mitigation: Monitor FRA progress with periodic requests for
updates on
the filing status, provide resources to assist the LIRR in
responding to the FRA’s comments on the IF
No additional changes to Harold Interlocking
4. 1st Quarter ’14 Look Ahead: Complete reviews, conduct witness
testing and take delivery
of the H1 and H2 CILs
Cutover POINT and H4 CILs
Cost: As of 12/31/13, three modifications for a total of $999,995
have
been executed.
