Route B

Route B has some similarity to Route A. Three ducts would be installed
along Citadel Drive as in Route A. However, the eastward crossing of the
vacant parcel would be by overhead lines mounted on poles. When the road
pattern for the vacant parcel becomes known and the parcel is developed,
underground ducts and wiring would be installed and the overhead lines
dismantled. A working easement of 16 metres is anticipated for the
overhead system. To minimize costs, clearing debris would be left
windrowed on site for burning or disposal when the parcel is developed.

Route C

Route C provides for three 75 mm ducts from the intersection of Carmel
Avenue and Pitt River Road along Carmel Avenue and Saskatchewan Avenue to
the pump station. This route would traverse an already builtup area.
The three ducts would have to be carefully installed parallel to an
existing energized 12,000 volt line contained in a 75 mm duct. The
completed installation would be of a permanent nature.

We have conferred with Mr. R. Balfour of B.C. Hydro in respect to their
charges for Routes A, 8 and C and with H.B. Construction Inc. for the
cost of civil works needed to impiement each alternative. The costs are
estimated as follows:

Route A

B.C. Hydro charges $24 ,600.00
Contractor civil werks 9,400 .00
Concrete encasement 3,500.00
Extra work due to changes between tender and award

of contract 3,000.00

Total $40,500.00

Route B

B.C. Hydro charges $21,500.00
Temporary overhead line 6,500.00
Clearing 1,500.00
Contractor civil works 3,000.00
Future overhead line dismantling and B.C. Hydro charges

(1987 prices) 13,000.00

Future contractor civil works (1987 prices) 7,000.00

Total $52,500.00
