The claim made by IC is rejected due to the following reasons;
1.	The area between 13+800 to 14+450 is under KAUST Security and IC has been informed that entering secure areas requires that IC does not create a breach in the security on this Security related project. Referring to clause 3.5 and 3.6 of SCH-B, IC must adhere with its contractual obligations.
2.	A key role like Engineering manager and establishment of a site design office has been neglected by IC throughout the project (refer to letter xx xx and xx ) and thus IC is suffering from delays on various activities due to lack of shop drawings. The current engineering manager Ali Elshayal works only part-time.
3.	An interface drawing was created when Jun Aquino was working with IC as engineering manager and all the interfaces were resolved for area between 13+800 to 14+450. Since IC changed the engineering manager, no action has been taken to carry on the subject activity.
