producing engineering for free...for some clients. Now I and <br /> many others have to walk out the door, find an engineer, get on the <br /> schedule and spend thousands of dollars and resubmit over a <br /> course of months...but Mr. Lee's been producing on occasion at <br /> least engineering from his desk for the benefit of applicants that <br /> aren't me or my clients. Now that's a benefit and privilege and he <br /> uses the word privilege that he's applying to people...arbitrarily... <br /> or on some basis which I would have to call bias. He has a bias in <br /> favor of some...a bias against others and I'd like to submit this if I <br /> may. <br /> Mr. Adams: Thank you. Madame Chair those were my questions. Thank you. <br /> Ms. Kahakalau: Thank Mr. Adams. Do have any further questions for Mr. Tucker? <br /> Go ahead. <br /> Mr. Robinson: You said earlier something about only one letter of response to <br /> engineering plans...I mean...are you saying that you would only <br /> need one letter or that there should only be one? <br /> Mr. Tucker: For the past twenty-three years...all of my submissions and all of <br /> those all of my compatriots in the business...you submit your <br /> plans...it goes to plan review...you get a letter back with a detailed <br /> list of items that they want corrections of You fulfil those <br /> corrections and you resubmit them and that would be...it that <br /> would should be the end of it. However, the letter of correction <br /> from Mr. Lee...the first letter requesting engineering just said well <br /> we don't understand the SIP building material or we don't know <br /> SIP building materials...we just know engineering. Well...we <br /> provided engineering...that you engineering is kind of a vague <br /> term actually you know...it was unspecific and vague and that's <br /> something that I have a lack of appreciation for is for somebody <br /> trying to proceed with my clients plans an expeditious <br /> manner...and then when we submitted that engineering from the <br /> factory engineers then they came back a month or so later and they <br /> wanted more engineering of a different type and other <br /> corrections...and then we went thru another whole process over a <br /> few months meeting those expectations and providing that <br /> information. In the course of this...Mr. Daniel Lee <br /> required...wanted some data and we ended up providing him with <br /> a five hundred page binder of technical data and much of this <br /> technical data was already on his bookshelf involved loan and <br /> spend charts for steel which any engineer should be able to deal <br /> with. Now I'm not objecting to the request for engineering, but I <br /> am objecting to the fact that in our process of trying to produce <br /> 20 <br />
