SUBSURFACE EXPLORATION PROPOSAL
Proposed Wathen Heights Sewers
Jeffersonville, Indiana
CS Proposal No. 11G -7/27a
Dear Mr. Ashack: a
We are pleased to present this proposal for a subsurface exploration at the referenced site in
Jeffersonville, Indiana. This proposal includes our understanding of the project information, z
the proposed scope of services, a fee estimate, and a projected schedule. Q
PROJECT INFORMATION Eal
Project intonation was provided by Josh Darby of Jacobi, Toombs and Lanz, in an electronic °
0 'g a1
transmission on July 26, 2011. We received a plan showing the proposed sewer servicing
(llc.Z
routes along Cherokee Road, Pawnee Drive, Bennett Avenue, Riverside Acres, Virginia & -���
� �x
Avenue, Carlotia Drive. Fay Avenue, and Allison Lane, along with a proposed pump station O
E s
situated near the intersection of Virginia Avenue and Utica Pike in Jeffersonville, Indiana. s ate ,
The plan depicted the proposed alignment with proposed boring locations as designated by F " `
Jacobi, Toombs, and Lanz. The proposed project includes construction of new sewers along 0
the route denoted and a pump station.
SCOPE OF WORK
z
It is our intent to conduct a subsurface exploration in order to obtain information about 0
subgrade support conditions and depths to rock at the site of the proposed structures. This Q
exploration is not designed to produce information concerning contamination or other
environmental conditions.
Ko
Boring locations were designated by Jacobi. Toombs, and Lanz and will be located in the field s=
using standard taping procedures and available fixed structures. No surveying equipment will
be utilized in this exploration.
S la
At the time of the exploration, a truck-mounted drill rig will be mobilized to the project site. �•�
(Weather conditions may delay mobilization during periods of prolonged precipitation). The
drill rig apparatus will be used to advance a total of seventeen (17) borings depths designated
by you on the plan you provided. If refusal is encountered above boring termination depth in
the borings, rock coring will be performed to reach the boring termination depth. If boring

information varies significantly, additional borings will be advanced. 'these additional
borings will not be started without your prior approval.
Standard penetration testing will be performed at the ground surface and at depths of 1.5 feet,
4.0 feet, 6.5 feet, 9.0 feet. and every five (5) feet thereafter, where possible until boring
termination depth is reached. Splitspoon samples will be obtained at each test interval. The
samples will be classified in the field by an engineer from our firm and will be placed in
sealed jars and retumed to the laboratory for testing. Rock samples will be placed in core
boxes and returned to the laboratory for classification and testing.
Groundwater levels will be recorded at boring termination in all of the borings. Due to safety
considerations, all borings will be backfilled upon completion. 1f, at any time during field
activities, unanticipated soil conditions that could lead to significant design or construction
difficulties are encountered, you will be notified.
Laboratory testing of soil samples will include the following tests:
8 Moisture Content Profiles (-48 tests)
2 Atterberg Limits Test
After field testing is complete, the subsurface information will be reviewed and evaluated and
a written report of our findings will be issued. The report will include:
- a description of the exploratory methods used
d escriptions of subsurface conditions encountered
- a summary of published geologic information
- preliminary design recommendations, including:
-design bearing pressure
- additional design parameters, including:
estimated c and 0 values
moist and saturated unit weights
lateral earth pressure coefficients
- construction considerations, including:
backfill placement
drainage
excavation shoring and stability
- groundwater considerations
- a Boring Location Plan
- Boring Logs
If. at any time during the project, unexpected or unusual conditions or information arc
identified, the scope of work will be reviewed to confirm that it is still appropriate and
adequate. If additional exploration and/or testing arc necessary, you will be notified, and the
added tasks will be submitted for your approval.

SCHEDULE
Based on our current workload, the subsurface exploration can be started within seven to ten
days of authorization, weather permitting. It is anticipated that exploratory activities can be
completed in two to three working days. As was previously noted, if, at any time during field
activities, unanticipated soil conditions that could lead to significant design or construction
difficulties are encountered, you will be notified. A verbal report can be submitted within
four working days of the completion of field activities. A written report of the work can be
submitted within ten working days of the completion of field activities. If significant projcct
delays are experienced, you will be contacted to discuss the revised schedule.
FEE ESTIMATE
The scope of work provided in this proposal can be performed for the lump sum fee of
510,200.00 (ten thousand two hundred dollars). Our fee is based on one drill rig mobilization.
a total of 225 fret of soil test drilling, and a total of five (5) feet of rock coring. Tbis fee also
is based on the assumption that the site will be accessible to truck- mounted drilled
equipment at the time of the subsurface exploration. All-terrain vehicles and/or heavy
equipment needed to move the drill rig on the site can be retained for an extra charge. If
additional exploration or testing activities are deemed necessary, a revised fee schedule will
• be provided for your approval. No additional fees will be incurred without your prior
approval. If, at the client's request, at any time after the start of this project and prior to the
completion of this project, the project is terminated, a prorated fee will be calculated b sect
upon the work completed up to the point that the project is terminated.
