CH2M HILL internal raises are effective April 1". They incorporated the April 2013 raise (4%) in the original pricing for
the contract. Since there were only two months of a few people's time on the project for April and May 2014 in the
original scope, they did not budget for a 4% salary increase in April of 2014. Now we have extended the contract much
further into 2014 than expected (from May to December), so an adjustment is appropriate. The reason we negotiated
4% for 2014 is because that was what was negotiated and budgeted for the 2013 increase. Let me know if you need
more information. Thanks!

Subject: Change order 4 CH21VI Hill
Erika,
Gerry asked me to review the above change order which includes a 4% increase for staff working on the project after
April 1, 2014. Although this is minor dollars, we are curious why this increase starts April 1, 2014 when the contract
completion date is May 1,2014? Also, per contract, any increase uses the Denver Boulder Greeley CPI as a guide which is
at 2.8% now but maybe you negotiated'the 4%.
Our goal is to bring awareness to the contract but I went ahead and added the requisition to the PO. John
