 Schedule
Construction Phase
● Mobilization scheduled to start on 6/18/24.
● Pre-construction meeting might happen early in the
year, potentially enabling site mobilization to start
much earlier, finishing construction up to 5 months
ahead of the original estimate.
● This strategy aims to create flexibility between
activities to accommodate unexpected weather or
delays, avoiding setbacks to critical path activities.
● Mobilization will commence when conditions are
suitable to achieve substantial completion by
1/12/2026 without delays.
