I don't blindly defend the MTA, I experience the ineptitude that plagues much of the agency firsthand. But I know what's actually going on in many instances, now that I work there. When it comes to south ferry, I didn't do any work on the structural box contact, but I did review some as-built drawings for the systems contact, I worked for the people who actually did administer the contract, and I worked with a man who was a union carpenter on Schiavone's contract. I have a good understanding of what happened at SF, and I've posted about it multiple times, but people who never worked in design or construction, much less on a transit project, or one for MTA, swear that they know what happened.BTW, EED would not review waterproofing design. That's not what they do. Typically, they work on asbestos and lead abatement jobs. No new waterproofing installations include this type of material. |
