I continue to walk into walls as how to make the next step. <br />As I mentioned to your committee at my hearing, all engineers are swamped with summer construction projects and so I <br />could make no guarantee as to the timing of the details they require. None of my state permits with ATCP, DNR, and <br />SPS require an engineer and so I was not prepared with a contract for that work. Given this time of year, I have been <br />unable to find an engineering company who can guarantee they can get something completed before February as this is <br />considered winter work for next year's construction. <br />Several companies have responded they are interested in helping me but are reluctant to give me a contract without a <br />clear path of just what needed. This process is also complicated by the fact that an engineering company as a matter of <br />procedure think they will also be needed to design and contract all aspects of the project, which is not required by the <br />state, rather than just completing an assessment. <br />Engineering companies are usually only contacted when an engineer is required to oversee all aspects of the <br />project: design; permits; contracting; supervise and certify construction. An assessment only of a project is virtually <br />never part of an engineering job. <br />In other words, the companies I have contacted tell me this is a little project compared to projects that require an <br />engineering firm, and so they do not understand why an engineer is required. <br />Also, given this appears to be the first assessment required by the county, apparently for any project, companies have <br />many questions that I can not answer. <br />Daniel Chelmo <br />920-787-4437 <br />
