WATSONVILLE, Calif., 7月11日 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Granite建设合并 (NYSE: GVA) today announced that Granite建设公司, a wholly owned subsidiary, and the 俄勒冈州运输部 ("ODOT") have reached an agreement in principal on a negotiatedtemporary suspension of the US 20 Pioneer Mountain to Eddyville Design-Buildproject.

ODOT awarded the 1.3亿美元 highway realignment contract to YaquinaRiver Constructors ("YRC"), a joint venture team comprised of Granite建设公司 and 怀尔德建筑公司 (a majority-ownedsubsidiary of 十大博彩正规平台公司) in 2005年7月. 这条7英里长的新公路的设计包括在小溪、河流和一条铁路上建造8座桥梁。 在施工过程中，在工程的关键地段发现了大量的滑坡。 As aresult of additional anticipated costs and time related to these landslides,in 2007年3月, Granite requested that ODOT either terminate or suspend itscontract.

经过几个月的谈判，Granite和ODOT同意暂时停止工作，而不是终止合同，这符合双方的最佳利益。 这一暂停将使双方有时间共同完成额外的岩土工程现场调查，并探索其他更便宜的滑坡缓解解决方案。 Under the terms ofthe agreement, construction work on the project will be suspended beginning onor about 二零零七年九月一日 and will resume no earlier than 二零零八年六月一日.During the suspension period, a small team of YRC management will remain onthe project to ensure that all environmental protection measures aremaintained. 与临时停工相关的费用将由ODOT和Granite分担。

然而，谈判达成的临时暂停协议并没有规定滑坡缓解费用的责任。 双方同意根据合同的争议解决条款将争议提交常设争议审查委员会（“DRB”）。 在此问题得到解决，并就完成项目的最终成本和进度达成一致后，Granite将根据ODOT签发的已签署的变更令重新开始施工，不涉及未解决的收入问题或争议。

At 二零零七年三月三十一日, the US 20 project was forecasted at a loss ofapproximately 2000万美元. 尽管格拉尼特认为这一数额有可能减少，但围绕滑坡缓解成本的最终责任确定仍存在不确定性。As a result, we do not anticipate recording any adjustments to our projectforecast during the quarter ended 二零零七年六月三十日.
