SUBSURFACE EXPLORATION PROPOSAL
Proposed McBride Heights Sewers
Jeffersonville, Indiana
CS Proposal No. 11G-7/27b
Dear Mr. Ashack: ►.�
We are pleased to present this proposal for a subsurface exploration at the referenced site in Va
Jeffersonville, Indiana. This proposal includes our understanding of the project information, Z
the proposed scope of services, a fee estimate, and a projected schedule. 0
PROJECT INFORMATION
's%
Project information was provided by Josh Darby of Jacobi, Toombs and Lanz, in an electronic 0 p
transmission on July 26, 2011. We received a plan showing the proposed sewer servicing w„ rj
routes along McBride Drive, Graceland Way, Linden Road, and Grandview Drive in Z
Jeffersonville, Indiana. The plan depicted the proposed alignment with proposed boring Os6
locations as designated by Jacobi, Toombs, and Lanz. The proposed projcct includes ..R,X.
construction of new sewers along the routes denoted. U f
SCOPE OF WORK
It is our intent to conduct a subsurface exploration in order to obtain information about rj
subgrade support conditions and depths to rock at the site of the proposed structures. This Z
exploration is not designed to produce information concerning contamination or other 0
environmental conditions. 0
Boring locations were designated by Jacobi, Toombs, and Lanz and will be located in the field
using standard taping procedures and available fixed structures. No surveying equipment will §o'
be utilized in this exploration. _=
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 six (6) borings to depths designated by
you on the plan you provided. Refusal is not expected to be encountered above boring
termination depth so rock coring will not be performed. 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
scaled jars and retumed to the laboratory for 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. 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.
Laboratory testing of soil samples will include the following tests:
6 Moisture Content Profiles ( -30 tests)
t 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
- descriptions of subsurface conditions encountered
-a summary of published geologic information
- preliminary design recommendations. including:
- design bearing pressure
- additional design parameters, including:
estimated c and m 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 are
identified, the scope of work will be reviewed to confirm that it is still appropriate and
adequate. If additional exploration and/or testing are 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 tcn
days of authorization, weather permitting. It is anticipated that exploratory activities can be
completed in 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 . - a

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 project
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
$4,950.00 (four thousand nine hundred fifty dollars). Our fee is based on one drill rig
mobilization, and a total of 57 feet of soil test drilling. This fee is also 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. It is also assumed
that rock will not be encountered above boring termination depth. Rock coring can be
performed for an additional S90 (ninety dollars) per foot of rock needed to reach boring
termination depth. 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. !f, 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 based upon the work completed up to the point that the project is terminated.
