To whom it may concern:

We are so sorry!  We are fearful that we forgot to include the links to the
diagrams in our original email to you requesting a cost estimate for our
structural design of a vertical sewage treatment plant. The total weight of
the sewage being processed in the plant at one particular time is
approximatly 12,000 tons.  There would also the weight of the pumps, tanks,
pipes, and the supporting structure.

Included are two rough drafts of the design of the proposed structure.

picture http://public.cctt.org/costya/cadplan.htm

Our teacher had previously told us that Monday, February 28th at 5 PM was
our deadline to allow her a day to complete a final proofreading.  In
reality, the ABSOLUTE latest that we can place new information into our site
is Tuesday, February 29th!  Is it still conceivable that  you could send us
a proposal/rough estimate on the construction cost of such a structure and
it's foundation, independent of the cost of the land and  sewage treatment
components?  Your numbers are critical to the completion of one component of
the contest.

Thank you so very much for your time time and assistance and we apologize
again for the lateness of this request.

Any response that you can give us will be unbelievably valuable and welcome.

We are deeply appreciative,

To Whom It May Concern:

I am a member of a group of students who are conduction an internet research
project called Internet Science and Technology Fair (ISTF) sponsored by the
University of Central Florida.  For more information on the project visti
http://istf.ucf.edu .  We are currently concluding our research on the
development of a vertical sewage treatment plant.

Included is a rough draft of the design of the proposed structure.  The
total weight of the sewage being processed in the plant at one particular
time is approximatly 12,000 tons.  There is also the weight of the pumps,
tanks, pipes, and the supporting structure.

We would greatly appreciate whatever rough estimate your company could
provide on the construction cost of such a structure and it's foundation,
independent of the cost of the land and  sewage treatment components.

We are concluding the project tomorrow, Friday the 25th of February, and
will be at school working late into the night.  A reply some time tomorrow
would be greatly be appreciated, but the web site must be published by
Monday the 28th at 5pm.  We thank you in advance for your time and
assistance and we appologize for the lateness of this request.

We are deeply appreciative,
