Page 20 of 64 tl _______________ Sli __ aw __ ._Shavv __ Errvi_·ron_mental __ &_l_nfrastruct ___ ure_, lnc----11 1.0 Introduction: The City of Fort Worth (City) plans to complete a baseline emission inventory for its operations, with the exce ption of Village Creek Waste Water Treatment Plant and the Southeast Landfill, to: • Determine compliance activities required pursuant to the United States Environmental Protection Agency's (USEPA) greenhouse gas (GHG) mandatory reporting rule (MRR); and • Prepare for future requirements related to attainment of the National Ambi ent Air Quality Standards for ozone. The primary purpose of the baseline inventory to be developed under this contract is to prepare the City for compliance with all provisions of the MRR . The City has varied operations as part of its service to the residents, which include numerous buildings, on-road and off-road vehicles, and power generating units consuming fossil fuel and generating GHGs. Because the applicability of the MRR will be based on exceeding a threshold of annual GHG emissions (25,000 metric tons of carbon dioxide equivalent or "mtC02e") a comprehensive, accurate, and transparent baseline inventory is the most important first step for the City in order to establish compliance wi th the MRR and future regulations. The Dallas/Fort Worth metropolitan area is also a non-attainment area for federal air quality standards with respect to ozone, which may require the City to control selected operations in the future . The precursors of ozone are volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and nitrogen oxides, which are emitted al ong with GHGs from the combustion of fossil fuel. A s econdary purpose of the project therefore will be to develop an inventory of these ozone precursors from fossil fuel combustion for City operations that also generates GHGs . The City has been funded for this project out of the federal American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA). In addition to creating jobs and stimulating the economy, the goals of ARRA are to: i) reduce fossil fuel use; ii) reduce total energy consumption; and iii) improve energy efficiency. As a prerequisite to developing strategies to achieve these goals, the City needs to have an in-depth lUlderstanding of its fossil fuel and overall energy usage . As fossil fuel and other energy usage translates directly to GHG emissions, another objective of the baseline inventory developed in this project will be to map the fossil fuel usage, carbon footprint, and carbon intensity within the City's operations to support the ARRA goals. This work plan is developed to delineate the project tasks r equired to achieve these project objectives 2.0 Description of Emission Inventory Organizational Boundary: The organizational boundary will be limited to the City's municipal operations and will not include the extraterritorial jurisdiction (ETJ) or any of the surrounding community operations.

WORTH, TX .,__ ___________ Sli_Q_. _~_. Shaw __ Envi_'ron_mental __ &_lnfrastruct ___ ure_._1~-11 Operational Boundary The operations will include the assets and area where the City has direct ownership or operational control. These include : • Offices, Wl!rehouses, and other buildings owned by the City • Streetlights and traffic signals • Water delivery facilities (water treatment and pumping stations) • City airports such as Meacham, Spinks and Alliance (limited only to the City 's activities) • Vehicle fleet owned and operated by the City • Power and heat generation facilities . This category will include boilers, combustion turbines, emergency generators, emergency pumps, etc. • Several closed solid waste facilities • Sign shops and other process operations owned and/or operated by the City Though the MRR does not require inclusion of emergency equipment such as emergency generators and pumps, these will be listed in order to develop a comprehensive inventory and to comply with future regulations related to ozone nonattainment. The following operations will be excluded from the inventory. Shaw understands that GHG inventories for these operations are being separately developed by the City. • Village Creek Waste Water Treatment Plant • Southeast Landfill • MED ST AR operations • All public transit system and commuting systems (The T) • DFW airport and related operations • Leased buildings The City does not have electric power transmission and distribution (T&D) operations. Therefore electrical stations and T&D operations are also excluded from the inventory. Scope of Emission Inventory The emission inventory will include only Scope 1 and Scope 2 operations and equipment. These scopes as defined in the World Resource Institute's (WR!) ''The Greenhouse Gas Protocol" are; Scope 1: Direct GHG emissions from operations included in the inventory. This scope will be used for GHG and ozone pre-cursors . Scope 2: Indirect GHG emissions due to purchase of utilities such as power, steam, or electricity for the operations included in the inventory. These emissions actually occur not at City operations but at the point of generation of the utilities . This scope will be used only for GHG emissions.

GHGs an d Regulated Po ll ut ants The GHGs included in the emission inventory will be limited to the requirements of the MRR and are : • Carbon dioxide (COi) • Methane (CH4) • Nitrous oxide (N20) Annualized emission of each of the GHGs and the combined carbon dioxide equivalent (C02e) will be calculated using global warming potential (GWP) per the USEPA's MRR. In addition, the following criteria pollutants will be included in the inventory as ozone pre- cursors: • Volatile organic compounds (VOC) • Nitrogen oxides (N Ox -which includes nitrogen dioxide and nitrogen monoxide) Baseline for Inventory The MRR requires reporting on or before March 31 , 2011 for the operations in calendar year (CY) 2010. As the complete operational data for the CY 2010 will be available only after Dec ember 31 , 2010, the operational data from CY 2009 will be used as the basis of the emission inventory. The City will complete data collection and data input to the emissi on inventory software to be developed as part of this project in order to compile the CY 2010 inventory for reporting in 2011. "Back-casting" of the emissions to a prior year will not be conducted. Emission Calculation Protocol The following protocols will be us ed for estimating the GHG emissions. • For clearly identified emission source categories under the MRR, the detailed calculation procedures in the MRR will be followed for regulatory compliance . These source categories will be identified during the project and finalized after discus.5ion with the City. Typically, these will be stationary sources such as boilers, combustions turbines, and h eaters burning process fuel, and solid waste landfills; • For other emission sources (mainly fleet emissions and i:treetlights), WRI's ''The Greenhouse Gas Protocol'' will be primarily used with appropriate 'fill in' from the California Climate Action Registry (CCAR) General Reporting Protocol and The Climate Registry (TCR) protocol; and • For the voe and NOx emissions from the fuel combustion sources, USEPA's Air Pollution Emission factor (AP-42) database will be used.

WORTH , TX Page Emission Aggregation Emissions will be calculated at the emission unit level at which data is available . All buildings and warehouses will be aggregated to metered connections because further segregation of fuels or electricity usage data may n ot be available. Vehicle fleet emissions will be estimated at either individual vehicle level or at vehicle group level or at the departmental level, based on data availability. Emission from sources identified as being subject to the MRR will be calculated separately for determining applicability and compliance . All emissions will be aggregated to the operational group levels (such as buildings, solid waste facilities, street lights and traffic signals, airport, stationary combustion systems) and finall y at the City level fo r a view of City-wide operations. Compliance Triggers and Directions The emission inventory software will include built in triggers to fl ag emission sources and operations for the following : • Applicability of MRR based on emission thresholds in the regulation • Applicability as a major source ofVOC and NOx based on Dallas/Fort Worth ozone nonattainment regulations The final report as part of the project deliverable will provide clear directions for compliance with the MRR and ozone non-attainment regulafrons as existing during the project timeline. 3.0 Project Deliverables: The deliverables from this project will be as follows : • A final report that describes the City's facilities and operations covered in the .inventory, the estimated emissions of GHGs and ozone precursors, fossil fuel usage, carnon footprint and intensity and clear directions on applicability and compliance of the MRR and ozone nonattainment regulations. Shaw will submit 3 paper copies and one electronic copy on disc in base software or pdf. • A copy of the emission software tool with an accompanying user 's guide that will clearly describe all input data used, all emission calculation procedures including variables, assumptions, and default values. The software will be transferrable to the City and/or other vendors for tracking emissions for future years .

Task 1: Delineation and compilation of assets includ.ed in the inventory The first task will be to clearly identify the assets and operations that will be included in the inventory. Innnediately upon award, Shaw requests that the City provide an initial master asset list, which will then be reviewed in detail to ensure all assets are included. Shaw expects several conference calls and meetings with the City to finalize this asset list. Task 2: Compilation of input data sheets Based on the type of operation, Shaw will develop input data sheets for collection of data required for emission calculations. These data sheets will be customized to the City's operation and the City staff will be able to complete these electronically. Single data sheets will be developed for each type of operation to collect data regarding GHG emissions, ozone precursor ernissions, and carbon footprint/intensity calculations so that the impact on City staff persoJU1el's time will be minimized. Each data sheet will include a user's instructions document that describes each of the data elements and how to fill in the data . Shaw will also host a Live Meeting (online) explaining the data sheets , if required by the City on any data sheet whose instructions are not clearly lUlderstood by the City staff. Task 3: Data coUection Shaw will seek to establish a collaborative approach with the City in collecting the data. City staff will be primarily responsible for collecting the emission unit level data and Shaw staff will be responsible for planning and managing the overall data collection effort. If and when required, Shaw staff will help the City staff in collection of data also; but this is expected to be limited to complex operations or instances where data are not available and alternative data will be required to be estimated or collected. Shaw proposes to use a web portal for ease of data management and transfer between the City and Shaw. The web portal will reside within Shaw and will be dedicated for this project only . Staff assigned to the project by the City will be provided complete access for uploading, downloading, and editing the data sheets . For purchased electricity, Shaw proposes to use supplier-specific GHG emission factors. Shaw would request this data to be gathered by the City from the current electricity supplier (Oncore). If required, Shaw will discuss the requir ements to the supplier in a meeting or a conference call . Shaw will track the progress of the data collection effort on the portal and will contact the City project lead if any delay in the data collection effort is encolllltered .

Tas k 4 : Data quality assurance Data quality is of critical importance for compiling a credible and accurate inventory. Shaw has extensive experience in developing emission inventories and performing emission inventory calculations and will use our best practices to assure the quality of the data . Each data sheet will be reviewed and any discrepancies will be sorted out prior to input in the emission software. In addition, Shaw plans a sele cted number ofrepresentative operational units in the City's inventory (such as buildings, sign shop, stati onary combustion systems) to verify the input data and data collection procedure. The results of these verifications will be recoded and uploaded in the portal . Shaw plans to use a dedicated staff for quality assurance management for this project The person will report to the Shaw Project Manger and will help in sorting out data quality issues, if any, as they arise. Task 5: Development of emission inven to ry software too l Parallel with the data collection effort, Shaw will develop an emission calculation software tool as a deliverable for the project. The s oftware will be built around an open platform such a Microsoft Excel and will be a set oflinked spreadsheets. Individual spreadsheets will be developed for each emission activity group such as office buildings, vehicle fleet, streetlights, solid waste facilities etc. The spreadsheets will include the list of emission tu1its covered under that emission activity group, the m ethodology used for emi ssion calculations, the input data used, the assumptions, and the defaults for each type of calculation for each emission unit A m~er spreadsheet will be developed which will include several tabs, each tab linked to emission activity group spreadsheets described above and summarizing the t otal emissions from that group for both GH G and ozone· precursors. The master spreadsheet will have a summary -tab, that will roll up all City-wide emissions from the individual emission activity group tabs . The s cheme of the software is shown in Figure 1.

The emission calculation software tool will be accompanied by a user's guide on explanation of the data fields and operation of the spreadsheets and data fields and for entering/editing/deleting input data in future . Once a draft version of the software tool is completed, Shaw will make a presentation to City officials . Shaw will explain the architecture of the spreadsheets, show all data elements and instructions, demonstrate how emission calculations will be performed, and how emissions will be rolled up to the City level. Shaw will solicit suggestions from the City to make the software tool more user-friendly and refle ct the needed changes in the final version of the software.

As menti oned earlier , the data will be for CY 2009 operations at this time ; but the City will have the ability to reload a duplicate spreadsheet with CY 2010 operational data , when these are available. Task 7: Presentation of draft emission inventory On completion of the emission calculations, Shaw will make a presentation to the City on the results of the basel ine inventory. Shaw expects to do this in a one day meeting in Fort Worth with City officials. The presentation will cover all aspects of the project from asset identification, input data collection, data quality assurance, the emission calculation software, and results of the baseline inventory. Task 8: Final emission inventory and report After the presentation and incorporating any comments the City may have , Shaw will finalize the project deliverables and submit final copies to the City, both in paper (3 copies) and electronic fonnat. 5.0 Project Schedule: The project schedule is shown in Figure 2 .

Trainees shall be paid fringe benefits in accordance with the provisions of the trainee program. If the trainee program does not mention fringe benefits, trainees shall be paid the full amount of fringe benefits listed on the wage determination unless the Administrator of the Wage and Hour Division determines that there is an apprenticeship program associated with the corresponding journeyman wage rate on the wage determination which provides for less than full fringe benefits for apprentices. Any employee listed on the payroll at a trainee rate who is not registered and participating in a training plan approved by the Employment and Training Administration shall be paid not less than the applicable wage rate on the wage determination for the classification of work actually performed. In addition, any trainee performing work on the job site in excess of the ratio permitted under the registered program shall be paid not less than the applicable wage rate on the wage determination for the work actually performed. In the event the Employment and Training Administration withdraws approval of a training program, the Contractor will no longer be permitted to utilize trainees at less than the applicable predetermined rate for the work performed until an acceptable program is approved.

Three client references from local government agencies. Are these references specific to emission inventories and greenhouse gas work or in general? o Work in general but focus on emission inventory and greenhouse gas work if your firm has completed such work. • Do Airports and tollway authorities qualify as local government agencies? o For this request, yes. • Is there an M/WBE participation goal for this project? o No • List ofltems, Schedule of Requirements , Scope of Work, Terms of Reference , Bill of Materials required. o These are included in the Request for Qualifications and/or will be negotiated as part of the final contract • Soft Copy of the Tender Document through email. o Please refer to http://www.fortworthgov.org/purchasing/defau1t.aspx?id=74690 for a copy of the RFQ and addenda • Names of countries that will be eligible to participate in this tender. o Any wishing to submit • Information about the Tendering Procedure and Guidelines o All funds will be made in US dollars and subject to rules outlined in the Attachment A • Estimated Budget for this Purchase o $84,157 is available for this purchase • Any Ex ten sio n of Bid di ng D ea dl ine? o None at this time • Any Add endum or Pre B id meeting Minut es? o No Pre-Bid Meeting was held. Please refer to http://www.fortworthgov.org/purchasing/default.aspx?id=74690 for a copy of the RFQ and addenda PROJECT: DEM 10-06: GHG May 7, 2010 Page lof 3 CITY OF FORT WORTH CITYWIDE EMISSIONS INVENTORY AND GREENHOUSE GAS ASSESSMENT ADDENDUM#1 • Page 1-1, paragraph 2: Are all funds to be awarded under the subsequent contract ARRA funds? Or will there be a mix of City and ARRA funds? o All funds are ARRA funds • What type of contract does the City envision will be awarded? Time & Materials (based on loaded labor hours), or Fixed Price by Task, or some other type? o The final contract type can be negotiated by the successful company. Typically the City uses a price per task model. • Page 2-8: Will the City waive some of more stringent and expensive insurance requirements for small business subcontractors as long as the prime contractor carries the required types and limits? o That can be negotiated as part of the contracting process • Attachment A-2: These terms appear to be those of the grant to the City of Ft. Worth. Do the grant funds come through the state of Texas, or are they issued directly from DoE to the City of Ft. Worth? Is paragraph 2 .a applicable to this procurement? Is the City of Ft. Worth the "Recipient" mentioned in the terms, or is this term a reference to the successful awardee of this work? o All persons receiving work as a result of ARRA funding are expected to abide by these special conditions; the City of Fort Worth, its subawardees, and contractors. • If award is made to a for-profit corporation, does the 10% ceiling on administrative costs apply? If so, does this include the awardee's indirect costs such as overhead or general and administrative (G&A)? What about fringe benefits? o Typically the City awards these contracts on a price/task, which incorporates these costs. As such, this would not apply. • Is the Dallas-Fort Worth International Airport part of the scope of this project? o No • Page 1-3 , paragraph 1. 7: The evaluation criteria provide for 20% of the points to be attributed to subcontractor qualifications . How are responses scored if no subcontractor is proposed ? o If no s ubcontractors are proposed, this score will be eliminated and the remainder normalized to account for this omission. • Page 2-4 , regarding su bcontractor qualifications. Please clarify if the response to items 1 through 9 may be combined for the prime and subcontractor(s). For example, would it be acceptab le to provide a total of three references for the prime and subcontractor, combined , o r must three each (fo r the prime and the subcontractor) be provided? o We must have 3 references for the prime and then whatever else the subcontractor might bring. PROJECT : DEM 10-06 : GHG May 7, 2010 Page 2of 3 CITY OF FORT WORTH CITYWIDE EMISSIONS INVENTORY AND GREENHOUSE GAS ASSESSMENT ADDENDUM#1 • Page 2-4, regarding client references from "local government agencies ." Please clarify if references from state or regional clients are acceptable . o State clients no. Regional Clients, utilities, and authorities, yes. PROJECT: DEM 10-06: GHG May 7, 2010 Page 3of 3 CITY OF FORT WORTH CITYWIDE EMISSIONS INVENTORY AND GREENHOUSE GAS ASSESSMENT ADDENDUM#2 This addendum responds to questions asked by interested consultants for clarification on the referenced Request for Qualifications. Section 1.1 of the of the request for qualification (RFQ) states that the baseline inventory will be used for determining compliance activities related to attainment of National Ambient Air Quality Standards (NAAQS) for ozone. The Scope of Services on page 2-5; however states that the deliverable will be a report will estimated emissions of GHGs . Please clarify whether the inventory will include only GHGs or GHGs with ozone precursors such as volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and nitrogen oxides (NOx)? • City understands that an emission inventory, in addition to other information, will be required to comprehensively estimate the annual emission of greenhouse gasses per the EPA GHG reporting rule. The deliverable will be the GHG baseline emissions but, as part of the support documentation, the other information will be included. The RFQ does not list the operations of the city that will be covered for the baseline inventory other than stating that the Village Creek Waste water Treatment Plant and the Southeast Landfill will not be included. Is there a list available which states which operations are covered in this inventory? Or is this part of the scope of the work for the project? • The City of Fort Worth maintains approx imate ly 400 faciliti es citywide. A comple te list of affected facilities, including address and square footage will be provided to the contracted consultant. Will the GHG baseline inventory include all the six Kyoto GHGs? • The GHG Baseline inventory needs to include all information required for compliance with the EPA Greenhouse Gas Reporting Rule Will the baseline inventory include only scope 1 and scope 2 emissions as defined in the World Resource Institute (WRI) protocol? The WRI definitions are as follows : Scope 1 will be direct emissions from city-owned operations Scope 2 will be purcha sed electricity , heat , and steam • The GHG B ase line inventory needs to include all info rma tio n required fo r compliance with the EPA Green house Gas R eporting Rule PROJECT: DEM 10--06: GHG May 14 , 2010 Page lof 3 CITY OF FORT WORTH CITYWIDE EMISSIONS INVENTORY AND GREENHOUSE GAS ASSESSMENT ADDENDUM #2 Section 2 .3 of the RFQ states that Pricing Information will need to be included in a sealed envelope ; however, The RFQ does not provide any format or details for presenting pricing information. How should the pri c ing information be submitted , if at all? • Pricing will be nego tia ted w ith th e s uccessful respondent. Th ere is a not to exceed price, pursuant to th e EECBG fundin g a ward, included in this project. Do not include p r icing information w ith this s ubmittal. Article 20 -addresses quarterly reporting requirements . It appears that the City expects the contractor to log on to www .federalreporting .gov and report on that site, rather than submitting the information to the City who would then report to DOE. Please confirm that this is correct. If it is correct, has the City done any of this reporting to date, have any of their contractors done it, and if so, do they have any written instructions ? I believe that this is different than what other state/county/city/parish governments have required. For other government contracts, the contractor has submitted the information to the client who has then reported to DOE. • Th e contra ctor will pro vide required information to the City who w ill, in turn , file th e require d f ederal reports to DOE and oth er required agencies. To what extent will City staff be involved in assisting the consultants with inquiries , is sues , and overall coordination of the project? Will there be dedicated City of Fort Worth staff on the project to assist in coordinating with the appropriate City branches/employees for data gathering/collection ? Will City staff be available assist in actual data gathering and processing? • Th e City will ass ig n a s taff m ember to b e a point of conta ct to obtain information and acces s from th e City of Fort Worth . The City will provide copies of utility bills . The Consultant will be respons ible th e collection and process ing of any additional required data. We believe there are approx imately 300 facilities , 5 ,000 on/off ro ad vehicle s, and -IO gen erators / power prov iding facilities that will be covered in the GHG In ventory . C an yo u pl ease provide a s pec ific fa c ility li s t? • A specific facility and equipmen t list wi ll be provi ded to the successful co ns ultant as we begin nego tiating the work plan and contract. PROJECT : DEM 10-06: GHG May 14 , 2010 Page 2of 3 CITY OF FORT WORTH CITYWIDE EMISSIONS INVENTORY AND GREENHOUSE GAS ASSESSMENT ADDENDUM #2 In what type of form will usage data ( energy, natural gas, mileage on City-owned vehicles, recycling data, etc) be provided to the consulting firm? (i.e ., Will the information be provided per facility via monthly bills/usage, or will it be provided in as a comprehensive MS Excel file with everything clearly identified, and all facilities included)? • The City will work to provide as much information as possible in an MS base file as possible. Some monthly utility bills will be converted to PDF format and provided to the contractor use. PROJECT: DEM 10--06 : GHG May 14, 2010 Page Jof 3 CITY OF FORT WORTH CITYWIDE EMISSIONS INVENTORY AND GREENHOUSE GAS ASSESSMENT ADDENDUM#3 This addendum responds to questions asked by interested consultants for clarification on the referenced Request for Qualifications . In addition to the completion of a baseline emissions inventory of Greenhouse Gas Emissions, is the City also interesting in a baseline inventory of all criteria pollutants or criteria pollutants that a re precursors to o z one? We understand a criteria pollutant inventory may be needed in order to prepare for future requirements related to attainment of the National Ambient Air Quality Stand ards . • City understands that an emission inventory, in addition to other information. will be required to comprehensively estimate the annual emission of greenhouse gasses per the EPA GHG reporting rule. The deliverable will be the GHG baseline emissions but, as part of the support documentation, the other information will be included. The project description for the RFQ asked for the completion of a baseline emissions in ventory for the City of Fort Worth's operations. Will this include its facilities and also its transportation sources such as fleet vehicles and other City owned vehicles? • The GHG Bas elin e in ve ntory n eeds to include all informa tion required fo r complian ce with the EPA Greenhouse Gas Reporting Rule The scope of services identifies a list of deliverables for this project which contains a final report on the City 's municipal operation that includes "their greenhouse gas impact/c arbon footprin t/carbon loading". With regards o the reference to "carbon footprint ", we would li ke to know if the City 's request includes the preparation of just direct carbon e missions from municipal operations or life cycle carbon footprint of all its operations . Secondl y, we are also interested in the City 's interpretation of carbon loading. For example, w ould this in c lude carbon sequestration ? • Th e G H G B ase lin e in ve nto ry n ee ds to include all infor matio n req uir er/fo r co mp li a n ce w ith th e E PA Gr ee nh o use Gas Reporting Rule.

An important s te p to that effec t was take n b y USEPA in promul gatin g the GHG Mandatory Re portin g Rul e (M RR ) o n D ece mber 29, 2009, unde r th e Clean Air Act (4 0 CFR Part 98). The MRR re quires pote ntially te n s of thou sand s of facili- ties nationwide to re port annual GHG e mi ss io n s s tart- in g 20 l l.

Shaw unde r sta nd th e proj ec t objectives, and s uch an inventory is the planned deliverable from thi s proj ect. The Ft . Worth/Dallas metropolitan area is also in non-atta inment for federal ozone stand ards, which may require additional control requirement for City operations in the future. The precursors of ozone are volatile organic compounds and nitrogen oxides, which are emi tted along with GHGs from combustion of fos s il fuel. A secondary purpose of the project, therefore, will be to develop an inventory of these ozone precursors from fos s il fu e l combustion for the City operation that also generate the GHGs. Typical- ly , these will be generators, boilers, vehicles, s pace heaters and s imilar operations. The City has been funded for thi s project out of the Federal American Recovery and Reinve s tment Act (ARRA). In addition to creating jobs and stimulating the economy, the goals of ARRA are to reduce fossil fuel u se, reduce total energy consumption, and im- prove energy efficiency. As a prerequi ite to deve lop- ing strategies to achieve these goals, the City need s to have an in-depth understanding of it s fossil fuel and energy usage . As fossil fuel and other energy u sage translates directly to GHG emissions, another objec- tive of the base line inventory developed in thi s project will be to map the fossil fuel u sage within the City's operations to s upport the ARRA goals. In the past 2 years, Shaw has completed or is current- ly performing approximately 24, multi-phase, multi- tas k projects involving literally thou sands of facility- based GHG inventories in the so lid waste, retail, utili- ty, manufacturing, petrochemical, communications, medical se rvices, acad e mia, a nd other indu stry sec- tors.

Understanding As represented by our work implementing energy efficiency programs CP& Y has a clear understanding of the challenges and barriers that City administrators and fac ility personnel face . Regardless of how well fac ility managers believe that their buildings are performing , in our experience we have found that there are usually significant opportunities for improvement in energy use . In many cases , cities do not have adequate funds to install energy efficiency measures or are unaware of, or uncomfortable with , all the funding options available to them . In other ses , other barriers impede their ability to implement improvements , eluding : • Lack of knowledge or personnel to identify cost-effective energy efficiency projects • Limited experience with the "best practices " of implementing efficiency measures • Lack of coordination between departments regarding energy efficiency responsibility • Lack of an actionable plan to procure project implementation • Inexperience with developing project specifications , the RFP process , evaluat ion of contractor proposals , and researching alternat ive courses of act ion • La ck of unde rstand ing regard ing sust ain abi lity and res ili en cy pla nning and their long-term benefits • Limited experience related to greenhouse gas emissions reduction • Lack of understanding of renewable energy technology and its application to municipal operations SOQ -City of Fort Worth DEM10-06 Greenhouse Gas Unl ike vendors that provide tech ni cal assistance as a way to sell their eq ui pmen t, the Team will pro vi de analys is and recommendations that the City can count on to be completely unbiased with regard to any particular technology or vendor . Therefore , the City can be confident that the Plan 's analysis , audit findings , recommendations , and training program present the most unbiased and therefore truest picture of their energy efficiency opportun ities and that the information will lay a foundat ion for action by the City to impro ve your energy performance . Project Implementation Strategy and Approach We believe that the most effective way to get the City to improve its energy performance is to prov ide you with information , provide economic motivation and prov ide information that helps you become comfortable with decisions so they can take action . We will imp lement this project using experience we have ga ined from working intensively on energy efficiency issues with public and private sector clients . Based on this experience , our proposed six-step project implementation strategy will be to : 1. Inspire -Perform outreach via a public participation plan to make the public and private aware of the value of investing in energy efficiency and the importance of integrating susta inability and resiliency into the Plan . 2. Assess -Gather and analyze information from the City that will help them better understand the ir opportunities . 3. Quantify-Use the data to quantify the opportunities . 4. Present -Present City senior decision-makers with the findings of the audiVanalysis and discuss how they can implement the recommendations . 5. Motivate -Show the City how to pay for and implement improvements by using state and federal sources as well as through public-private partnerships. 6. Support -Provide on-going technical assistance as needed to the City in a var iety of areas that will help them improve their energy performance .

CP&Y began by performing a technical energy audit on all City water and wastewater facilities to assess the current operation of the system and obtain an understanding of the equipment currently in use. With this information CP&Y evaluated the potential energy and water savings the city could garner by improving energy and water efficiency through the use of more efficient equ ipment, properly sized equipment and changes to the operation of the overall system . Recommendations included the development of a recycled water program for industrial customers resulting in significant savings in potable water and the energy used to both treat and convey , installation of CHP systems to make use of the energy available from waste heat at various facilities , establish multiple pressure planes and modifying the operat ional procedures of the tanks to pump during non-peak power demand times , replace aging equipment that is close to the end of its useful life with more effic ient equipment which possibly make use of VFD 's depending on the application , elimination or consolidation of redundant pump and lift stations throughout the City , use a SBR plant to shave off and treat peak wet weather flows and investigate the gasification of biosolids in conjunction with an alternate fuel source . CP& Y has presented these recommendations to the City and has moved forward with the first phase of recommendations at the Cities two wastewater treatment plants . Improvements include the addition of VFDs to existing Aerators , the replacement of existing blowers with new high efficiency blowers integrally equipped with VFDs and the replacement of existing impellers with more efficient units . Bexar County, Energy Efficiency Community Block Grant Project CP& Y has been retained by Bexar County , under sub-contract to McKinstry , in January 2010 as its partner responsible for water and wastewater projects .

SOQ -City of Fort Worth DEM10 -06 Greenhouse Gas Consultant's Capabilities, Resources & Responsiveness Staffing , Current Work Load & Availability , and Local Experience The Project Manager 's allocation of time is estimated at 65% to 75%. This allocation will require continuous adjustment due to priorities to prov id e balanced coverage of projects . Further, project changes , delays , and other issues increase the need of time allocation . If needed , the Project Manager may allocate 100% of time during a short-period , to ensure effective contract execution and administration. Each key staff member is available for the commitment necessary to allocate all project needs . We anticipated that different people may be available at different times and that the specific availability will influence the identification of personnel for specific tasks. CP&Y has the flexibility to operate in this manner because we have built redundancy into our staffing . CP&Y has more than 50 staff members in the vicinity of the City who are qual ifi ed in either in green build in g, energy and construction management and that can be available to this project as needed . All of the identified core management members are local in Texas. The benefit to the City is the availability of an additional pool of local staff resources , which are easily accessible should the need arise . The team consists of the following personnel : CP&Y will maintain an accounting of current and projected workflows to ensure that adequate staff is available to commit to existing and future projects . History of Meeting Deadlines The key factors in keeping a project on track are to understand what causes delays and then to properly plan and manage schedule issues before they become problems . The Project Manager understands that delivering a project on time relies on managing the proper scoping of work, choosing experienced professionals , assessing timeframes realistically, and anticipating that some unforeseen problems are likely to come up. He intends to institute an aggressive management of typical scheduling issues that occur throughout projects to ensure that projects are completed within the intended timeframe . Delays are often encountered due to lack of understanding or to improper planning . CP&Y understands that to stay on schedule requires setting real istic goals , understanding subconsultant's capacity , monitoring performance of subconsultants , and addressing minor issues properly to avoid major issues . CP&Y understands that projects , especially those with critical requirements and rapid delivery , have issues that hinder progress . It is imp ortant to ensure that these issues are identified and resolved quickly by the Project Manager. The first step in effect ively dealing with these is sues is to mak e th e en tire CP&Y team aware of the importance of identify ing issues and getting proper resolution -th is fosters accounta bility . CP& Y will use th e following pro cedure to en su re that the issues are visibly track ed to ensure schedule is on track : 1) Identify is sues : At project start, CP& Y staff and subconsultants will beg in to id en ti fy issues that could hinder the ab ility to meet the objectives of the project/work order ; 2) Document the iss ue : Project Manager will document all issues in a centralized location ; 3) Assign responsibility for resolving issues : The Project Manager will determine th e ap propr iate in divi dual respons ible for resolv in g each issue ; 4) Monito r and control progress : Issues will be tracked using an issu e log th at formally provides the status and resolution of the iss ues ; 5) Report prog re ss on issue resolution : An Issues log will be a part of the weekly status report and discussed in the weekly status meeting , and 6) Commun icate issue resolution : The Issues log and documented resolutions of issues will be made available to all resour ces . Page 6 of 10 Historyott<eep'iii'g withinBudget &Y is committed to completing its projects on -time and wit hin dget. CP& Y's ability to complete projects on-time and within budget is due to the following : • We conduct thorough scoping to ensure that we and the client are awa re of potent ial issues that could affect the project schedule and budget befo re we enter into a contract; • We commit staff who have the know ledge and experience to complete the project on-time and with in budge t. Internal Quality Control Policies/Procedures CP&Y embeds Qua lity Assurance (QA) from inception and throughou t every phase in our project management approach. In short , quality is not an "add on " -it is integrated into every phase of the project. CP&Y 's Quality Assurance program is intended to assure that the quality of all the work str ictly conforms to the project requirements as well as applicable codes and standards . CP& Y's QA/QC involves three key elements : Management Planning , Management Execution and Control , and Management Reporting. Management Planning Management Planning includes comprehensive plann ing and technical approach developed at the beg inning of the project to provide technical gu idance for conducting the project. In add ition , this involves the assignment of sufficient qualified staff resources and provision of appropriate resource , schedul ing and the budgetary control tools which will be required for successful project implementation. anagement Execution and Control nagement execution begins with selection and assignment of staff and continues throughout its execution with frequent work performance reviews by senior technical associates. Therefore , the quality of work and its responsiveness to our client's needs is recognized to be highly dependent on the experience and sk ills of the project staff and project managers , both in the office and in the field. Management controls are primarily designed to prevent errors and duplication and secondly , identify deviat ions or errors early in the project for corrective actions to be taken . Important QA/QC controls , which are established during project planning , include : document control , design control , non- conformance control , monitoring , correct ive action , and aud its . Key components are : 1) Monitoring: The purpose of monitoring is to ensure subco ntractor is complying with terms and cond itions of contract and app li cab le regu lat ions ; prevent substandard performance by identifying and resolving potentia l problems by provi di ng constructive , time ly feedback : and make pro gress to ward the expe cted results and ou tcome s. Thi s is accomplished by period ic contractor reporting and invoice rev iews .; an d 2) Corrective Act ion : Cond itions adverse to qua lity or substandard performance will be identified promptly an d corrected as soon as pract ical. In the case of a sign ificant deviat ion , the cause shall be determ ined and corrective action tak en to preclude recurren ce. The ident ification , cause and corrective act ion for sign ificant cond itions adve rse to qua lit y will be docu ment ed and re po rte d to the ap prop ri ate level s of management and fol low up actio ns will be tak en to ver ify imp lement ation of this correc ti ve action . Proj ect Ma nage me nt Approach & Y has manage d the insta ll at ion of ov er a billio n doll ar s wort h of ork . Th is experien ce is a tremendous asset to del iv ering projects on time , with in scope , and on budget. The Team uses a combination of people and processes to manage every project . Our first priority is to have the right people ass igned to the project. These include tenured and experienced staff that can use the ir ex pe ri enc e to mi ni miz e an y SOQ -City of Fort Worth DEM10 -06 Greenho use Gas impacts to the key performance ind icators of the project. The Team strongly believes that a suc cessful project requ ires specific sk ills and that you cannot simply insert any project manager at this process and hope that things will all just work out. The roles and responsib ilit ies of our staff are des igned to match the flow of the project requ iremen ts. This staffing starts with a Project Manager and Task Mangers , who all play a sign ificant ro le in the prope r management of the pro cess . For the City , we will be assigning Mr . Freddie Guerra as the Project Manager . Mr . Guerra is based in Dallas and he will be the single point of accountability for the development and execution of all work related to this RFQ . He will have the day-to -day responsibility for development project control. His expertise in taking conceptual improvemen t projects through the aud it ing and engineering process and into an implementable , properly designed , and successfully executed project is a key role . His ability to perform his job well is closely ti ed to our assigned Task Managers . To ensure that all work is progressing effic iently and in a timely manner the Project Manager will be respons ible to assign each Task Manager a clear role and responsibilities . Documentation will also be important to ensure that information is communicated quickly and clearly . The project team will use schedule/cost control , draw ing/document/e-mail exchange and control software to manage the project. The specific personnel roles and responsibil ities are detailed as follows : • Overall management and City liaison . • Solicit City involvement and comments (e .g. constructability issues) • Respond to technical rev iewers . • Attend City and direct team meetings . • Conduct weekly progress meetings with Task Managers . • Chair milestone review meetings . • Internal advisory to Team , and final issue resolution . • Monthly progress reports and invoicing to the City . Task Managers will manage interaction between disciplines . Their responsibilit ies include : • Reporting and communication with the PM • Keeping track of inputs and outputs , and changes • Timely distribution of new information to/from the PM . • Spot check verification and written 'sign off on milestone submittals. • Ass ist ing the PM in communicat ing with the City 's Project Manager . • Rev iew data collect ion needs with City and prov ide list of required information to fellow Task Managers . • Preparing techn ical letters/responses to the technical rev iewers for the PM . • Regular week ly progress meetings/c on ference call s with PM . All of our project Team will utilize ind ustry -standard schedul ing too ls (i.e., Microsoft Project ) to form ul ate schedu les . The Team will deve lo p a work plan that details all of the major tasks associated with the project and includes information such as : the requ ired completion date for each task, th e status of each task , th e resp onsible party , potential risks , and proactive meas ur es ta ke n to mitig ate and min imize possible risk s. Updates to the sche du le and bud get are do ne wee kl y and revie we d wi th the cl ient to en sure the pro ject is tra ckin g to the plann ed pat h. Any de viati ons are noted and a pla n is devised to minimize project im pa ct.

Our financial statements repo rt results in U.S. dollars, which include the re s ults of these subsidiaries. Our accounting poli cy for foreign c urren cy tran s lati o n is different depending on whether the economy in which our foreign s ubsidiary operates has been designated as highly innation ary or not. Economies with a three-year cumulative in nation rate of more than 100 % are considered highl y innationary . Beginning December I, 2009, we designated Venezuela's economy as highly inflationary , a nd we consolidate our Venezuelan subsidiary 's results subsequent to that date using our accounting policy for s ubsidiaries operating in highly innationary eco nomies. Venezuela 's change in des ignation to highly inflationary had no material impact on our consolidated statement of operations or financial position , as our operations in Venezuela are immaterial to our worldwide operations. Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements In June 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) is s ued the Accounting Standards Codification™ (ASC) as the sole so urce of authoritative nongovernmental GAAP. The ASC supersedes all non-grandfathered, non-S EC accounting literature but does not change how we account for transaction s or the na ture of related disclosures made. Instea d , when referrin g to guidance iss ued by the FASB , we refer to topics in the ASC rather than indi v idual pronouncements . This change affec ts financial statements issued for interim and annual periods ending after September 15 , 2009 and did not have a material effect on o ur consolidated fin a ncial statements. On September I , 2009, we adopted a uth oritative guidance for bu s ine ss combinations in acco rd a nce with ASC 805, "Bus iness Combinations." The guidance reta ins the fundamental requirements that the acquisition method of accounting (pre v iousl y referred to as the purch ase method of accounting) be used for all business combinations but introduced a number of changes, including the way assets and liabilities are valued, recognized and measured as a resu lt of business combinations. ASC 805 requires an acquisition date fair value measurement of assets acquired and liabilities assumed. It also requires the capitalization of in-process research and development at fair value and requires acquisition-related costs to be expensed as incurred. Adoption of ASC 805 did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements. On September I , 2009, we adopted authoritative guidance that changes the accounting and reporting for non-controlling interests in accordance with ASC 810, "Consolidation." Non-controlling interests are now reported as a component of equity separate from the parent 's equity, and purch ases or sales of equity interests that do not result in a change in control are to be accounted for as equity tran sactions. In addition, net income attributable to a non-controlling interest is now included in net income, and upon a loss of control , the interest sold, as well as any interest retained, is now recorded at fair value with any gain or loss recogni zed in net income . Adoption of ASC 810 did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements. On September I , 2009 , we adopted the authoritative guidance on fair value measurement for nonfinancial assets and liabilities , except for item s that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a recurring basis (at least annually) in accordance with ASC 820, "Fai r Value Measurements and Di sc losures." Adoption of ASC 820 did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements. On September I , 2009 , we adopted Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2009-05, "Meas uring Liabilities a t Fair Va lue ." This update pro vi des amendments to ASC Topic 820 , "Fair Value Measurements and Disclosure," for the fair value measurement of liabilities. Adoption of the ASU 2009-05 ha d no impact on our consolidated financial statements. On September I , 2009, we adopted authoritative guidance on share-based payments in accordance w ith ASC 260, "Earnings per Share." ASC 260 addresses whether in s truments granted in share-based payment transac ti o ns are participating sec urities prior to vesti ng and therefore, nee d to be included in the earnings a lloca ti o n in comp utin g earnings per s hare. Adoption of ASC 260 had no impact o n our co ns o lidated financial s tatements. On September I , 2009, we adopted a uth oritati ve g uidance o n accounting fo r nonrefundable maintenance deposits in accordance with ASC 840 , "Leases." ASC 840 requires a maintenance deposit paid by a le ssee under an arrangement accoun ted for as a lease that is refunded on ly if the le ssee performs specified maintenance ac ti vi ties to be accounted fo r as a deposi t asse t. Adoption of ASC 840 did not ha ve a mate rial impact o n our consolidated financial sta tement s . 8 Table of Contents htt p ://in ves ting .bus in essweek.com/research/stoc ks/fin a nci a ls/drawFi I in g .a s p?form Type= I 0-Q[ 5/ 12/20 IO I :27: 55 PM J SHAW G ROU P INC (Form : I 0-Q, Received: 04 /07 /20 IO 17:08:20) On Septe mbe r I , 2009, we a d opted a uth ori tati ve g ui dance fo r coll a borati ve arrangeme nt s in accord a nce wi th ASC 808 , "Co ll a borat ive A rra nge me nt s."

If a joint venture is determined to be a va ri a ble intere st entity (VIE) as defin ed by ASC 810 and we are the primary beneficiary , the joint venture is consolidated in accordance with ASC 810. If consolidation of the VIE or joint venture is no t required, we generally account for these joint ve ntures us in g the e quity method of accounting with our s hare of th e earnings (lo sses) from these inves tments re flected on one lin e in th e consolidated statement of operations. Our significant uncon so lid ated s ub s idiary that is accounted for using the equity method of accounting is our investment in Westinghouse (Investment in Westinghou se). On October 16 , 2006, we acquired a 20% equity interest (Westinghouse Equity) in two companies, which, together with their s ubsidiaries , are collectively referred to as the We stinghouse Group (Westinghouse) for approximately $I.I billion . We fin anced this investment partially through our subsidiary Nuclear Energy Holdings, LLC (NEH), issuing limited recourse to us (except N EH) Japanese Yen (JPY)-denominated bonds (Westinghouse Bonds) for U.S Dollar (USD) equivalent of approximately $1.0 billion . The various agreements are desc ribed in Note 6 of our 2009 Form I 0-K. In connection with our Inve stment in Westinghouse, we entered into JPY -denominated Put Option Agreements (Put Option) with Toshiba Corporation (Toshiba), pro viding us the option to sell to Toshiba a ll or part of our We stinghouse Equity during a defined "Exercise Period ." Per th e Put Option, the Exercise Period commenced upon the occurrence of a '·Toshiba Event" which is caused by, a mong other things , certain Toshiba financial metrics . Toshiba notified us on May 11 , 2009, that it experienced a Toshiba Eve nt as of May 8, 2009, because it failed to maintain a minimum consolidated net worth, as defined in the Put Option , of JPY 800 billion. Due to the Toshiba Event , the Westinghouse Bond holders, who maintain a security intere st in the Put Option, now have the opportunity to direct us to exercise the Put Option . Under GAAP, the Put Option is not considered a freestanding financial in strument or a deri vative in strument and, consequently , is not separated. from our equity investment in Westinghouse . Therefore, neither the Put Option nor its_ foreign currency component is revalued at current exchange rates . However, the JPY-denominated Westinghouse Bonds must be revalued at each quarte r's end to USD a t current exchange rates . See No te 7 -Debt and Re vo lving Lines of Credit for additional informatio n regarding o ur In vestment in Westinghouse, the Put Option a nd the Toshiba Event. Westinghouse mai nt ai ns its acco untin g record s fo r report ing to it s majority owner, Toshiba, a nd us o n a calend ar quarter bas is w ith a March 3 1 fiscal year end.

A t February 28 , 20 IO and A ug u st 3 1, 2009, there were $24. 7 million a nd $24 .8 million of le tters of credi t ou tstand in g unde r thi s faci lity , respectively. A bank has extended to us a $50 .0 million uncommitted, un secured bilateral line of credit for iss uing performance letters of credit in Saudi Arabia. Fees under this facility are paid quarterly . At February 28, 20 I O a nd August 3 1, 2009 , there were $29.8 million of letters of credit outstanding under this facil ity. Note 8 -Income Taxes Our consolidated effective tax rate for the three a nd six months ended February 28 , 2010 was 36% and 34%, respectively. In determining the quarterly provision fo r in come taxes, we use a n est imated a nnu a l effective tax rate based on forecast ed a nnua l pre- tax income and permanent it e m s, statutory tax rates and tax planning opportunities in th e various jurisdictions in w hich we operate. The impact of s ignificant discrete items is separate ly recognized in the quarter in which they occur. We recognize foreig n currency gains and losses o n th e Japanese Yen-denominated Westinghouse Bonds as discrete items in e ac h reporting period due to their volatility and the difficulty in estimating such gai ns and losses reliably . We expect the fisca l 2010 annual effective tax rate, excluding discrete items , applicable to forecasted pre-tax income to be a pproximately 3 7%. Signifi cant factor s that could impact the a nnu a l effecti ve tax rate include management 's assessment of certai n tax matters, the location and amou nt of o ur taxable earnings, c han ges in certain non-deductible expenses and expected credits . We adopted the provisions of ASC 740-10, "Income Taxes," effective September I, 2007. Under ASC 740-10, we provide for un certai n tax positions and the related interest and adj ust unrecogni zed tax benefits and accrued interest accordingly. We recognize potential interest and penalties related to unrecognized t ax benefits in income tax expense. During the second quarter of fiscal 2010, unrecognized tax benefits decreased $7.1 million relating to the reevaluation of temporary positions , one w hi c h is hi g hl y certain as to deductibility but un certain as to timing. The reversal of the unrecogni zed tax benefit was offset by a red1,1ction in a corresponding deferred tax asset in the same a mo unt. For the six months of fiscal 20 I 0 , unrecogni zed tax benefits decreased $7.1 million due to th e reevaluation of temporary positions and $1.0 million due to a settlement with a state tax authority a nd in creased by additional tax provision of $0.4 million and acc ru ed interest of $0.1 million. As of February 28 , 20 I 0 , o ur unrecognized ta'< benefits were $44.7 million , of which $34.1 million would , if recog nized, affect our effective tax rate. 17 Table of Contents Our s ubs idi aries fil e incom e ta'< re turn s in numero us tax j uri s d ic ti o ns , in c luding U .S. fe d e ra l, m ost U.S . s ta tes a nd cert a in fo re ig n jurisd ictio ns .

Tax and interest accrual provisions have been made in our financial statements for the agreed adjustments in the IRS audit covering the 2004 a nd 2005 fiscal years and for uncerta in tax provi s ion s as discussed in Note 8 -Inco me Taxes. While management cannot predict the ultimate outcome of the above matters , provi s ion s have been made in our fin anc ial statements where appropriate. The matters, if decided adversely to us or settled by us , individuall y or in the aggregate, could have a material adverse effect on our financial statements. In a separate matter, certain cases concerning Louisiana franchise tax matters for fiscal years 200 I through 2009 have been ordered dismis sed by reason of joint requests made by the Louisiana Department of Re ven ue and Shaw. Liabilities Related to Contracts Our contracts often contain provisions relating to the following matters: • warranties, requiring achievement of acceptance and performance testing levels; liquidated damages, if the project does not meet predetermined completion dates ; and penalties or liquidated damages for failure to meet other cost or project performance measures. We attempt to limit our exposure under the penalty or liqu idated damage provisions and attempt to pass certain cost exposure for craft labor and/or commodity-pricing risk to customers. We also have claims from customers as well as vendors, subcontractors and others that are subject to negotiation or the contractual dispute resolution processes defined in the contracts (see Note 15 - Long-Term Construction Accounting for Revenue and Profit/Loss Recognition Including Claims, Unapproved Change Orders and Incentives for further discussion). Guarantees Our lenders issue letters of credit on our behalf to customers or sureties in connection with our contract performance and, in limited circumstances, on certain other obligations of third parties. We are required to reimburse the issuers of these letters of credit for any payments that they make pursuant to these letters of credit. The aggregate amount of outstanding financial and performance letters of credit (including foreign and domestic, secured and unsecured and cash collateralized) was $639.5 million and $790.3 million at February 28, 20 IO and August 31, 2009, respectively . Of the amount of outstanding letters of credit at February 28, 2010, $494 .8 million are performance letters of credit issued to our customers. Of the $494.8 million , five customers held $328.5 million or 66.4% of the outstanding letters of credit. The largest letter of credit issued to a single customer on a single project is $117.5 million. Our borrowing capacity under our Facility is reduced by the aggregate amount ofour outstanding letters of credit. 19 Table of Contents In the ord in ary course of business, we enter into vario us agreement s prov iding financial or performance ass urances to c ustomers o n behalf of certa in unc o nso lid ated partnerships, joint ve nture s, consort ium s o r oth e r jointly executed con tracts. These agreements are e nt e red into primarily to s upport the project exec uti o n commitments o f the se entities a nd a re generall y a guaranty of o ur own performance. These assurances have various expiration dates ranging fr o m mechanical completion o f the facil iti es being co nstructed to a period extending beyond contract completion. The maximum potential payment amo unt of an outstanding performance guarant ee is the remaining cost of work to be performed by o r on beh a lf of third parties under engineering and co nstruction co nt racts. Amo unts th at may be required to be paid in excess ofour e stimated cost to complete co ntracts in progress a re not estimable . For cost reimbursable contracts , amo unt s that may become payable pursuant to guarantee pro v is io ns a re normally re coverable from the client for work performed under the contract. For fixed price contracts , thi s amount is the co st to complete the contracted work le ss amounts remaining to be billed to the client under the contract.

In those cases where cost exceeds the re maining amoun ts payable under the contract, we may have recourse to third parties such as owners, co-venturers, s ubcontractors or vendors. legal Proceedings We had pending before the American Arbitration Association (AAA) the case of Stone & Webster, Inc. (S&W) v. Mit s ubishi Heavy Industries, Ltd. and Mitsubishi Power Systems, Inc. (collectively , Mitsubishi). In that matter, S&W sought approximately $38.0 million in liquidated damages from Mitsubishi . Mitsubishi denied liability and as serted a counte rclaim totaling approximately $29 .0 million. On November 16 , 2007 , a majority of the AAA Tribunal transmitted a "Partial Final Award" granting certain relief to S& W contingent upon further proceedings with the Tribunal. Mitsubishi filed in U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York (S.D .N .Y .) a petition to vacate the award. On November 14 , 2008 , S&W filed with the S.D.N.Y. a petition and motion to confirm the Tribunal 's Pa rtial Final Award. The Di strict Court dismissed Mitsubishi's petition to vacate and S&W's petition and motion to confirm without prejudice. The parties have now settled this matter, which concludes the arbitration. The settlement did not have a material adverse effect on our financial statements. In connection with a services contract s igned in 2000 for the construction of two nuclear power plants in Asia, we asserted claims against our customer before the host country's arbitration association . In that arbitration , we so ught an approximate $49.6 million increase in the contract target price that, if awarded , would eliminate potential penalties associated with cost incentive/pe na lty provisions set forth in the contract. If the arbitration association failed to award the target cost increase or it awarded an increase less than the requested amount, we faced an assessment of up to approximately $13 .6 million in such penalties . Further, we sought from the customer approximately $22.2 million for reimbursement of severance and pension payments, unpaid invoices, increased overhead and outstanding fi xed fee amounts. The client presented a counterclaim asserting $4.3 million in damages relating to alleged defective work and an additional $23.6 million for completion damages, though the contract limits such damages to $20.0 million . The customer has further so ught to keep $7.2 million in cash drawn on a previously issued letter of credit against the claims asserted. On September 3 , 2008 , the arbitration association rendered an award granting most of our claims and dismissing all of the customer's counterclaims. We have initiated proceedings to enforce the award in both the host country and in the U.S . District Court for the Middle District of Louisiana. The proceedings in the U.S. District Court ended when the Court declined jurisdiction based on a finding of forum non conveniens . The customer has initiated proceedings in the host country to contest the award 's validity, oppose our enforcement actions and overturn the award. In the first ruling by the host country 's court addressing the validity of the arbitration award, the court denied the customer's petition to nullify the award and that ruling has been appealed. We have made provisions in our financial statements based on management's judgment about the probable outcome of this case. If the customer prevails on its counterclaim for defective work and completion damages and/or its challenge of the existing award to us to increase the target contract price and other claims for compensation , the individual or combined rulings could have a material adverse effect on our financial statements. In connection with an international fixed price contract executed by our Fossil, Renewables & Nuclear segment that is subject to a schedule of rates for changes and where our services include fabrication , erection and construction, we filed a Request for Arbitration with the London Court of International Arbitration (LCIA). In the request, as amended in a January 20 IO filing with the LCIA, we currently seek claims of approximately $27 .3 million in additional compensation from our client, the prime contractor on the project, related to delay and disruption, loss of profit on descoped areas and changed labor practices. In addition, we have requested additi o nal compensation relative to remeasurements of quantities and scope variations from our client of approximately $13.3 million . On February 5 , 2009 , the client, who holds a $2.0 million performance letter of credit from us , filed a response that denied our claims and stated it had counterclaims totaling approximately $60.4 million related to certain alleged costs associated with completing work that the c lient rem oved from our scope and damages s uffered because of our alleged failure to complete work in a timely mann er. On A ugu st 12 , 2009 , the client filed a Statement of Defense and Counterclaim with the LCIA wherein counterclaims were reduced to $24.0 milli o n. Within this counterclaim , the client also s pecified $18.8 million it was owed for descopes of work, but agreed in prin c ipal to c han ge orders for remeasurements a nd variatio ns va lu ed at $11 .5 million . We evaluated o ur cla im s an d o ur c li ent's counte rc la ims a nd made provisions in o ur fin anc ia l st a te me nt s based o n manageme nt's judgment abo ut the probable outcome of th is a rbitrati o n.

Our a bility to deve lop, de s ign , commercialize and integrate a wide range of process techn o logies a nd perform projects th at ra nge from s m a ll consulting studies to large E PC projects differe ntiate us from many of o ur competitors. From o ur m a in offices in Houston , Texas; Baton Ro uge , Louisiana ; Cambridge, M assachu setts ; Toronto, Canada; Mumbai , India and Milton Keynes, Eng la nd , we d e li ver services through fi ve maj o r bu s in ess lines : ethylene, petrochemicals, refi nin g , upstrea m and co ns ultin g. While the current global economic climate has impacted E &C segment 's pros pects in th e short-term , as the economy reco ve rs, we a nticipate that ex penditures by our m ajo r o il and petroc hemical clients will begin to return to prior leve ls. Ethylene. One of Shaw's core proprietary technol ogie s is eth y len e process technology . Eth y lene is an o le fin that serves as a base chemical of the petrochemical indu stry. Since our fir st ethylene plant was built in 1941 , we have design ed and/or built mo re than 120 grassroots units , which prov ide a s ignific ant portion of the world 's ethylene supply. Produced by the steam cracking of hydrocarbo n fe ed stocks, ethylene and its co-product, propylene, are key building blocks for other petrochemicals and pol y mers. T he economic s lowdown and the large amount of ethylene currently entering the market from recentl y c o mplete d projects have contributed to reduced de m a nd and the delay of many planned projects . Exception s are in the Middle Eas t, where economic projects a re generally proceeding becau se of the availability of low-cost feed stock , a nd C hina, which seems to be affected less by the slowdown than other regions. W e believe the delay in new, grassroots project activity will be somewhat offset by opportunities to revamp existing facilities as owners seek to maximize producti v ity . We anticipate that debottleneck and revamp projects a nd technol ogy upgrades may result in additional opportunities over the next several years. Petro chemicals. The economic downturn has resulted in a decrease in global demand for dura ble goods made from petrochemica ls a nd a corres po nding decline in production a nd new con struction . Ho wever, we ex pect that Middle Eastern a nd Chinese cli e nts may continue to focus on strategic plans and in vestments . In the rest of Asia, we anticipate that in vestments m ay ramp up as the economy recovers. We also ex pect that the Middle East 's dema nd for pol y me rs may increase, especially for specialty commodities and e ngineering plastics . With our portfolio of technol ogies in pol ysty rene, acrylonitrile butad ie ne styrene (A BS), intermediate polycarbo nates and others, Shaw is well positioned to participate in the ex pected economic upturn . Additional opportunities may arise as m ajo r oil and petrochemical companies look for ways to integra te their refining and petrochemica l facilities to improve profitability. We have exte nsive expertise in the de s ig n and construction of e th y lene and downstream deri vati ve pl a nt s, which provi d e the so urce of m a ny higher va lue c hemical products used to produce packaging, pipe, polyeste r, antifreeze, electronics a nd tires -a ll v ital produc ts in today 's market. Refining. Demand for technology and se rv ices in th e petroleum refi nin g indust ry h as been driven primarily by our c li e nts' requirements to proc ess heav ier, poorer quality feed stocks into a variety o f li g hter, clea ner pro du c ts . Ada ptability a nd inc reased fle x ibility a re key as refin e rs around the wo rld co ns ider ex pa nding beyond th e ir tra diti o n a l fuel s m a rket by inte g rating th e ir fa c iliti es wit h petrochemica l o pe ra ti o ns . In the las t y ear, the refining sector s lowed with the e cono mic downturn, a nd s hrinking m a rg ins led to reduced inv estments. The Middle East appea rs to be the strongest regi o n for future growth , where o il producers a re s triving to own more of the s upply chain by al so exporting fini s hed oi l products a nd even petrochemicals. In th e U.S., refinery utili zation is decreasing, but reconfigura ti on of refin e ri es to produce c leaner fuels a nd m eet env ironm e nt a l legis la ti on may create n ew opportun it ies for our serv ic es. In E urope , we expect strong diesel demand to drive in ves tm e nt d ecis io ns . Shaw's lluid cata lyt ic cracking (FCC) techno logy, jointl y lice nsed w ith our in ternati o na l partner, remains a key technology in new refineries being built arou nd the wo rld , primarily due to th e FCC's abi lity to boost production of gaso lin e and polymer-grade p ro py lene . This sa m e tec hn o logy is being used to enhance th e pe rforma nce of existin g assets th ro ug h it s ab ility to process poorer qu a lity feedstocks, increase capacity and improve product y ields , qu a lity a nd energy efficiency.

The recent popularity of these technologies is driven by the growing global trend towa rd integra ting refineries and petrochemical facilities. Ups tream . Our up stre a m di v is ion bu s iness has bee n s uccessful in winning project ma nage me nt consultancy (PMC) work in the offshore sector a nd is currently purs uin g additional onshore o pportuniti es in the Middle Eas t. In respon se to the rising global demand for liquefied petrol e um gas (LPG), production is forecast to increase dramatically by 2012 , primarily in the Middle Ea st and North Africa. We are active in this market, with recent awards for front-end engineering design (FEED) and detailed engineering services for a n LPG project in Algeria. Syngas (short for sy nthes is gas), a clean gas that can be used for power generation or converted to s ub stitute natural gas (SNG) or high value clean fuels has characteristics which make it an attractive future fuel source. Syngas can be produced through a number of processes including coal gasification and steam reforming of natural gas or liquid hydrocarbons . Syngas production may grow with rising demand for electricity and the pu sh for reductions in greenhouse gas emissions, especially carbon dioxide, and we believe we a re well pos itioned to participate in this growth. Co nsulting. We offer con s ulting services to the energy , power, process, petrochemical , refining and government market segments, as well as to the broader investment and financial community. Previously known as Stone & Webster Management Consultants, the business name was changed to Shaw Consultants Interna tional in 2009 . It originally was founded in Boston more than I 00 years ago. The global economic downturn has slowed the pace of new consulting engagements, as operating companies and the fin a ncial community experienced uncertainty regarding project finance availability and hy drocarbon a nd energy pricing. F&M Segment We believe our F&M segment is among the largest worldwide suppliers of fabricated piping systems. Demand for our F&M segment's products is ty pically driven by capital projects in the electric power, chemical and refinery industries. We provide support and work for both external clients and our internal business units. F&M provides pipe and structural steel fabrication for projects such as the E&I segment's DOE work a nd several of the Fossil , Renewables & Nuclear segment's power projects, as well as the E&C segment's largest current project.

The increase in gross profit was parti a lly offset by emergency response services performed in fiscal year 2009 related to hurricane recovery activity in the gulf region of the U.S. The increase in gross profit percentage was primarily attributable to lower overhead costs as a percentage of revenue as compared to the prior year , as wel I as a change in estimate on the above-mentioned contract completed in 2008 for which the costs were incurred and expensed in prior periods.

E&C Segment E&C continued to perform well with strong project execution across it s portfolio of projects. Revenues for E&C decreased from 2009 primarily due to redu ced vo lumes of customer furnished materials a nd reimbursable costs which are invoiced to clients without profit, as well as from reduced volumes of engineering services. E&C continued experiencing th e expected decline in profits during the first two quarters of fi scal 20 IO from record levels experienced in the prior fi scal year as a result of the completion ofa number of high-margin engineering services contracts and a decrease in bookings of new work . We are beginning to see signs of renewed client interest in the early phases of m ajor capital investments such as studies and front-end engineering and design contracts, which precede the engineering, procurement and construction phase of major projects, but it remains uncertain when these projects will be awarded. As a result, we expect E&C 's vo lume of business and earnings to decline during the second half of fiscal year 20 I 0. 46 Revenues (2nd Quarter) E&C's revenues decreased $44.0 million , or 13.3 %, to $287.2 million for the three months ended February 28, 2010, from $331.2 million for the sa me period in the prior fiscal year.

Our strong cash position , combined with the glohal economic slowdown , has created opportunities for u s to obtain market discounts and provide protection from potential future price escalation for o ur EPC project s by und e rtaking an early procurement rogram. Accordingly. we have begun to procure certa in commodities. subcontract s and con st ru cti o n equi pm e nt early in the life cyc le of major projects. lf suecessful, thi s s trategy will provide price and schedule certainty but may require u s to expend o ur cash earlier than o ri ginal ly requ ired under such contracts. We are currently evaluating early procurement opportunities th at would re s ult in cash outflows of up to $150.0 million during fi scal year 20 I 0. It is o ur intent to balance any potential cancellation exposure assoc iated wi th early procurements with our t ermination ri g ht s and obligations unde r th e respective prime contracts with ou r c li e nts and to he lp protect ourselves from s uppliers failing to perform by requiring fin a ncial security in struments to support their performance .

Credit Facility As o ur revenues have grown. so have our require m e nt s to issue letters of c red it to our c li en ts . Our ability to continue o ur revenue growth may be dependent o n our ability to increase our letter of credit and s urety bonding capacity , our ability to achieve timely rel ease of existing letters of credit and s urety bonds and/or our ability to obtain more favorable terms from our c lients reducing letter of credit and surety requirements on new \vo rk . Our need for letter of credit capacity may increase as we begin executing future nuclear construction projects. Increases in outstanding performance letters of credit reduce the avai I able borrowing capacity under our Facility. 50 On September 24, 2009, we entered into the Restated Credit Agreement with a group of lenders that provides new and extended lender commitments of $1,214 .0 million , all of which is available for the issuance of performance and financial letters of credit and/or borrowings for working capital needs and general corporate purposes. The Restated Credit Agreement includes new lenders to the Facility as well as certain existing lenders who will exit the Facility in 2010 or 2011 , following the expiration of their existing commitment. Accordingly, the Restated Credit Agreement contemplates three groups of lenders, the "20 IO Lenders," the ·'2011 Lenders'· and the ··2012 Lenders;· with the Facility terminating with respect to such lenders on April 25, 2010, April 25 , 2011 and October 25 , 2012, respecti vely.
