was made to look into the design of the model room at MIT There were concerns about
this effort having an impact on the construction project. P Kelley and the Committee

construction on this matter.

$150,000 for the G delay was based on a work stoppage of three months(January,
February and March of 2002) and then three months of double shifts to make up for the
time lost. The $150,000 lump sum in the negotiations would be for an average of 30 men
on second shift at $1500 per man plus a 20% differential for the shift ($45,000 +$9000)
per week for 12 weeks or$108,000. Added to that was $25,000 for PCC supervisors on

$143,000. The remaining $7,000 was allowed for night office work(secretarial or
