The overhead facilities to be removed are located on NW 3 AV between -NW- 8 ST & NW 9 ST, on NW 9 Sr between NW 3 AV & NW 2 AV and the overhead line between Lots 8 & 9 Blk 35N. This estimate is not an offer from FPL to perform the requested conversion and should not be construed or used as such for detailed planning purposes. It is provided strictly to assist you in your preliminary decision making. This non -binding estimate is an "order of magnitude" estimate, and is based on previous FPL experience. However, due to the complex nature and variables associated with this type of work, the estimate may not accurately represent the actual cost your organization would be obligated to pay FPL to convert its facilities. A detailed and "binding" estimate will be provided, should you decide based on this "ballpark" estimate, and will commence should you elect to pay the non-refundable engineering deposit as set forth in the Florida Administration Code 25-6.115. The deposit is required due to the complexity and time required to estimate such a conversion, and would be applied towards the estimated amount (known also as the CIAC amount) owed to FPL for the conversion, should you decide to proceed with the work contained in the estimate, and contract for that work within 190 days of the date the estimate is provided. FPL estimates include only estimated charges to be paid by the applicant to FPL. Costs associated with restoration of property affected by the conversion; acquisition and recording of easements; "clearing" of trench routes; trenching, backfilling, and conduit installation of individual service laterals; and rearrangement of Customer service entrances have been excluded. These elements of the conversion will be the responsibility of the applicant. Rearrangement of customer entrances may, in addition, impose additional customer expense if local inspecting authorities require customer wiring to be brought to current codes. The applicant is also responsible for arrangements that must be made to accommodate other utilities/pole licensees affected by the conversion. Regarding easements, as requested by your Agency, Florida Power & Light Co. will be responsible for describing(preparing and recording the necessary easements. Your organization will be responsible for the securing of the easements. FPL will not be responsible for any delays to your construction schedule due to problems/delays in securing and or the recording of those easements. All above ground appurtenances, e.g. pad mounted transformer and switch cabinets; will be installed in easements. All costs associated with the describing, securing and recording of easements will be added to any conversion costs.

Easements Dear Sir, Pursuant to our meeting of April 23, 2001, enclosed please find Easement documents for two of the three locations.discussed in our meeting, I'm enclosing two (2) originals for each location. Please,.execute both .. originals and return both to me for recording with Dade County. Once the easements are recorded, I will return a copy of the -recorded easement to you for your records. The first easement is for Lot 46, Block 26 North. FPL is requesting a 10' x 10' easement at this location, as previously discussed. The second easement is for Lot 1, Block 35 North FPL is requesting a 15' x 10' easement at this location, as previously discussed. In preparing the Easement Document for this site, I was not sure if the property _ was owned by an Individual or by a Corporation. As a result, I'm enclosing Easement Documents for both Individual and Corporate signatures. Please forward these documents to Mr. Teele, as he stated that he would attempt to have the property owner sign these documents. The easement document for the third location, northeast corner of NW 2 AV & NW 9 ST, cannot be written until Mr. Marston, of WRT, has provided FPL with the site plan for the proposed Comfort Station. Once Florida Power & Light Co. has obtained and recorded the easements for Lot 46, Block 26 North, plus either Lot 1, Block 35 North, or the location at the northeast comer of NW 2 AV & NW 9 ST, Florida Power & Light Co. will begin the Engineering Design.
