SWG Gas line replacement

Lisa,

Thanks for taking the time to speak with me concerning the gas line replacement project in the area of Central & Camelback. I met with our contractor, Northern Pipeline (NPL), to address the concerns of your residents. All of the issues have been addressed with the most notable changes being a new start time on weekends of 9am and all drivers on the job site have been instructed to minimize travel through the neighborhood and to keep engine noise and speed to a minimum. Any further complaints will result in the immediate removal of the offending person(s). I spoke with Mr. Jones on Friday 1/20 and relayed this to him as well. Mr. Jones asked that all future communication go through you on this project. Below you will find my contact information. Please do not hesitate to contact me for any issues or questions that arise during the remainder of our project.
