portion of the sewer pipe identified as MH2D224 to MH2D212, and located on Arthur Street (Liner
Issue), and which was listed on the Project Punch List; and
Whereas, the Parties disagree about the cause of the Liner Issue and therefore the Liner Issue has

attached Settlement Agreement between the City of Fridley and HK Solutions Group, f/k/a Hydro-
Klean, LLC subject to final modifications directed by the City Attorney.
