I don't know if Brian Martin or anybody on the OBP side was privied to this info but we think it needs to
be addressed and clarified.

On Friday, (b) sent out some concerns expressed by Irrigation Districts 1, 5 and 19 regarding various
restrictions(6)
and/or requirements. These issues arose due to various real estate and engineering
obstacles. The result of these obstacles created the need to tweak or deviate from the original
alignment. According to (b) (6) if the irrigation district's needs cannot be met then they
become non-feasible and we revert back to the original alignment. As you know this will take us back
to square one....isn't this the reason (b) was down here to begin with? If it doesn't work then (b)
should come up with a design to make (6) it work and not revert back to an alignment that was not(6) going
to be feasible in the first place.

Please clarify

Thanks

(b) as a result my visit and as discussed on the phone before the

holidays, RGV Sector abandoned the idea of making alignment tweaks
(6)
(discussed in our last Fort Worth meeting) on some segments and is
looking into the feasibility of the few that are still being considered.
To consider the feasibility I asked RGV to get the impacted irrigation
districts concerns. The tweaks still being considered are a result of
new information that the team did not have few months ago when we all
went out on the site visits and if approved will simplify our real state
and is better operationally to BP. The COE RE team on the ground is
aware of what is being considered and I do not think that the proposed
tweaks will significantly impact the ENV team (will remain in the same
original foot print). If we run into road blocks then these tweaks
become non feasible and we go back to the original agreed upon fence
location(s). Attached are the first round of irrigation district
concerns which I thing are benign. I will keep you cc'd.

Thanks

We have met with three Irrigation Districts (Districts 1, 5,
and 19) in Hidalgo County. We will be meeting with the Cameron County
Irrigation Districts next week. We are forwarding you information we
have gathered until now, and we will forward the concerns for Cameron
County as soon as we meet with them.

Any questions give us a call.

Thanks
