MWH Proposal | March 9, 2012 3-4 | Technical Questionnaire 1 CIMFP Exhibit P-02150 Page 5 Independent Engineer | Reference LC-PM-082 Nalcor Energy – Lower Churchill Project 1.0 EXECUTION 1.1 General Subsequent to award of the Agreement, Successful Bidder (Contractor) shall be required to submit an Execution Plan for Company’s approval. The Technical Proposal shall include a detailed outline complete with a summary of Bidder’s Execution Plan. The submission shall describe how the Execution Plan will encompass the Scope of Work. The submission shall provide sufficient detail so as to enable Company to fully assess Bidder’s understanding of the Services and the Project, and to evaluate Bidder’s approach, commitment and ability to provide the Services to the Project. As a minimum, the detailed outline / summary of the Execution Plan should address the items noted below. Response: Execution Plan The role of MWH Canada during Phase 1 is to review the principal aspects of the Project engineering design, hydraulics, hydrology and power generation estimates, cost and scheduling estimates, transmission systems and converter stations, and the technical provisions in the principal Project contracts as well as the permits and licenses. The Project consists of the Muskrat Falls Generating Station, the Labrador Island Transmission Link, and the Maritime Transmission Link. MWH Canada will identify issues uncovered during the independent engineering review, may propose an approach to address those which are within its area of expertise, and will work with NALCOR and the Client to help resolve each issue. In general, the IE reviews work prepared by others and does not prepare original engineering design products. The work to be accomplished by the MWH team (the Independent Engineer) does not include any assessment, evaluation, review, testing, or discussion of facility security issues, including but not limited to, protection from terrorist acts, that may impact NALCOR and the Client’s facilities, systems, or human life or those of other entities with which the Client has business or operation relations. MWH Canada has dedicated a team of experienced engineers with many years of experience in the design and operation of hydroelectric plants, and who have performed numerous Independent Engineering reviews for other projects during their careers. The IE organization charts included with the Execution Plan indicates the specialized fields of expertise required to process the work and include specialists to allow the work to be processed relatively more quickly by providing several specialists in each of the main categories of Work. Also included with the Execution Plan is the MWH Global Organization Chart as required by the RFP. We MWH Proposal | March 9, 2012 3-4 | Technical Questionnaire 2 CIMFP Exhibit P-02150 Page 6 Independent Engineer | Reference LC-PM-082 Nalcor Energy – Lower Churchill Project have included with the Execution Plan the resumes of personnel who will be dedicated to this Project during the course of the work along with the resumes of sub-consultants. The Work is outlined and discussed in Section 2, which include the Work required for Phase 1 and for Phase 2. We have attached to this Execution Plan the detailed Scope of Work to be performed under the Plan. The Detailed Scope of Work formed the basis for preparing our time estimates and budget estimates. The outline of the Scope of Work follows the Task numbering system as given in the RFP, PHASE 1: PROJECT TECHCNICAL REVIEW PRIOR TO FINANCIAL CLOSE, pages 33-44, and PHASE 2: CONSTRUCTION PERIOD, Pages 45 and 46. The Execution Plan provides a summary schedule that allows the work to be implemented in an organized manner to allow all questions of NALCOR to be addressed during MWH’s review of the Project documents, complimented by discussions with the parties and the site visit. Notes in the Execution Plan Summary Schedule indicate where we expect the work to be accomplished and the duration of the work. We have also designated on the schedule the expected dates for submittals (reports) to NALCOR and the Client. At this time we realize that the review of our Execution Plan is subjected to approval by NALCOR; as such, we would expect that any revisions to the Execution Plan can be made to accommodate the needs of NALCOR and the Project Schedule. Work required to be performed by the Independent Engineer follows the requirements to address all of the tasks as presented in the RFP and will address each subject/topic outlined therein. 1.
