 by WAPDA Authority. In continuation of that, I, myself prepared the Cost
compensation case of EOT-01, amounting to RS 923 Million, (FWO Share
742 Mi9llion) which has been under approval by the Engineer/Employer.
However, the delaying events continued & myself has prepared the EOT-02
Case of 1624 days which has been under approval by the Engineer,
expected to be finalized within a month or two. Cost compensation of EOT-
02 would be followed the approval of EOT-02. All the delaying events have
been incorporated in the EOT-02.

directions/instructions to all the sublet Contractors of Spaira Ragha Canal
under the signature of your good self (letter attached) & Site
Engineers/Supervisors were being instructed on regular basis During internal
meetings chaired by DPM KTDP (Could be verified by him). But there are
some more lacks by the Engineer due to which damage occurred. Your good
self must be well aware that initially the Engineer could not decide for at least
9 months regarding the provision of RCC/PCC/Earthen Dowels/joints & I
have issued almost 10-12 letters to the Engineer (letters attached) with the
signature of your good self-regarding the decision of dowels/joints,
consequently lead to a damage. It is informed that I have prepared the RBL
Schedule, which got approved by the Engineer & initially work progress was
faster than planned but due to the non-provision of the decision by the
Engineer work suffered. It would be in your knowledge that decisive authority
on this project is the Engineer & we have to wait for final
directions/recommendations by the Engineer.
 It is added that according to the design of Canals issued by Consultants, no
slope has been provided on formation level, but I, myself, had proposed the
slope of 33% towards outer drains to avoid damages to the Canals which
got approved by the Engineer & adopted in their further design of Canals.
 To avoid damages, I, myself has submitted the proposal the lean concrete of
2 inches on drains, which has been submitted to the Engineer for approval.
