He stated there were two reasons for the material on site being at a high level: (1) Mercer had planned on starting construction a month earlier, and (2) had been held back in some areas. Mr. Gillett said there would not be this much material on site every month and that the present material was being inventoried by Project Representative, Robert Ray.
