Our tank manufacture, Arrow Tank & Engineering Co., was unable to meet our design timeline <br />due to work force issues which led to significant delays in design drawings being completed <br />for the bulk storage tank. <br />2. Additional to the delay in completion of design drawings for the tank, material shortages <br />would not have allowed for the tank to be delivered in 2022. <br />3. Once CenterPoint Energy determined the project could not be completed in 2022 it decided <br />to shift the budget for this project to 2023. <br />4. At this time, I am in the process of reviewing the final design drawings from our tank <br />manufacturer, however they have not been able to provide to me a delivery date for the tank <br />yet. <br />5. Due to the uncertainty of the completion and delivery of the tank CenterPoint Energy has <br />shifted this budget to 2024 to ensure the capital expenditure is available when the material is <br />ready for installation. <br />If this extension is approved, we intend to begin site improvements at the end of winter or beginning <br />of spring in 2024. <br />apologize for these delays, it was never my intent to have the project delayed at all, let alone this <br />long. <br />Thank you, <br />Dustin Daniels <br />Supervisor, Technical Field Operations I MN Region <br />
