Wagner stated he would like a minimum of 60 days notice on having to relocate the meter. Also, if the meter load- is large enough,that it has to be placed on the ground, it will require a 3 square foot concrete pad. 4. Floyd Hornaday (SWEPCO): Stated he had discussed the relocation of the transformer with Mr. Guisnell . He stated at that time the relocation of the existing transformer to the Southwest corner of the building on the West side was discussed and a cost estimate was submitted to him. This plan shows the proposed relocation to the South side of the building further East He said this will result in a substantial increase in the cost of the relocation. He said he would prepare another cost estimate on the relocation. This proposal will put another bend in the conduit. There are already two bends, plus the extra distance with this proposal. Hornaday stated where the conduit bends, galvanized, 90 degree, long sweep elbows, a minimum of 36 inches will have to be installed. If the developer does not already have specifications on the construction of the new tranformer, SWEPCO will furnish them. Hornaday stated the relocation of the transformer will require a service outage. Elliot stated Safeway would prefer changing the location of the transformer in the early hours of the morning so that the store will be out of service as short a time as possible. Hornaday stated SWEPCO would work with Safeway as much as possible, but he felt it would probably take a day to pull wite,and relocate the transformer. Hornaday asked if there would be an increase in load, he stated presently, the load is 500. Elliot stated they anticipate doubling the usage. Hornaday said they would tentatively look at 1000. Some power poles will have to be removed, with this addition. Another pole will have to be placed on the Safeway site, but it -will be located close to the street on College. 5. Dick Shaw (MA BELL): Stated phone service is presently located in the parking lot in conduit. He said care should be taken if any work is done in that area.

The Developer will provide schedule 40, 2" pvc conduit from the entrance location in the building over to turn up the pedestle on the Southeast corner of the property. It should be packed over the conduit to bear the weight of the traffic it will have to support. The developer may want to install two wall conduit.
