Subject: Airport Link - Wooloowin Worksite Modification Request for
         Project Change - Questions

Dear David,

I am writing on behalf of the Kalinga Wooloowin Residents Association
Inc (KWRA) and I have a few questions I hope you (as CEO of City North
Infrastructure) will answer for me on behalf of the Wooloowin community.

The Wooloowin Worksite Modification Request for Project Change (2009)
document has the City North Infrastructure (CNI) logo across the front
cover.

 1. Was this document produced by CNI?

In our opinion BrisConnections and their contractor Thiess John Holland
(TJH) did know, or ought to have known that the soil formation was
troublesome prior to tender allocation as the information was contained
in a number of reports pertaining to Airport Link.

 2. As the SPONSOR/SPV/PRIVATE-PARTY in this Airport Link project was
    CNI informed of troublesome soil conditions by BrisConnections
    (OPERATOR) or TJH (DESIGN & CONSTRUCTION CONTRACTOR) prior to tender
    selection?

 3. When was CNI made aware of the troublesome soil conditions?

 4. What measures were taken by CNI to ensure the OPERATOR / DESIGN &
    CONSTRUCTION CONTRACTOR had performed sufficient geotechnical
    analysis?

 5. For this issue with inappropriate soil conditions, what time and
    cost mitigation strategies were presented by the selected
    OPERATOR / DESIGN & CONSTRUCTION CONTRACTOR prior to
    successful selection as preferred bidder?

 6. How long has the Rose St site been considered as option should
    problems arise?

 7. Was the Rose Street site ever listed within the PROJECT AGREEMENT
    as a possible mitigation measure?

Most correspondence with CNI by members of the KWRA has met with no reply.
At first blush this appears to be a highly effective strategy as it keeps
the community uninformed during the course of a sensitive, time pressured
ruling where relevant information might affect the ruling against CNI.

 8. Have you explicitly informed CNI staff not to liaise with members
    of the community?  In not, how do you explain the virtual silence
    from CNI to highly relevant requests from the community?

The principal contract in a public private partnership project is the
PROJECT AGREEMENT.  The PROJECT AGREEMENT governs the relationship between
government and the private party from financial close, through the design
and construction phases to the expiry of the term.

 9. Would you please provide us with a copy of the PROJECT AGREEMENT,
    including Risk Registers, mitigation measures, etc.

More recently specific requests have been made to the Department of Main
Roads regarding activity at the proposed Rose St site.   These requests
have been forwarded to CNI.  No response has been received from CNI.

 10. Have you received any such requests?  If so, why have we not
    received a response?

 11. Would you provide a list of properties within a 100 metres radius of
    the proposed Rose St site or Melrose Park which CNI has requested
    from Main Roads or any other Government departments?

 12. Would you please explain why the owners of the block opposite the
    proposed site were offered $5000 in relation to surrendering their
    underground rights?

In regards to your Board of Directors, could you please confirm whether

 13. Paul Low is the Department of Infrastructure and Planning's
    representative on the Board of Directors for City North
    Infrastructure?  And is Paul Low the Deputy Director General
    at the Department of Infrastructure and Planning?  If this is
    not the case who is the Department of Infrastructure and Planning's
    representative on the Board of Directors for City North
    Infrastructure?

I would ask you to please respond to these questions NLT close of business,
Tuesday 16 August, 2009.  We wish to give due consideration to your comments
before communicating with the residents and media this week.

Yours Sincerely,

Greg.
