SUBSURFACE EXPLORATION PROPOSAL Longview Beach Sanitary Sewers .T effersonville, Indi~a HEI Proposal No. 70-03/02a Dear Mr. Lanz: We are pleased to present this proposal for the subsurface explorations at the referenced site in Jeffersonville, Indiana. This proposal includes Out understanding of the project information, the proposed scope of services; a fee estimate, and a projected schedule. PROJECT INFORMATION Project infonnation was provided by you in a telephone conversation. You indicated that the city of Jeffersonville intended to install sewers in the Longview Beach area, northeast of downtown .T effersonville. The sewer alignmen.t will be located on the grounds of the fonner Indiana Army Ammunition Plant, controlled by the Indiana Department of Natural Resources. Your infonnation included sanitary sewer plans shown on aerial photographs along with profile views. You requested a proposal to advance 16 rock soundings and 12 soil borings along the existing roadway to evaluate soil s.upport conditions and depths to rock. (Th.e plans~ however, showed 18 rock soundi.ngs, so the proposal was based on the higher number). One boring also was requested. at the site of the Happy Valley lift station. No depth. for the wet well was given, so the proposal was fonnulated based on an estimated depth of 40 feet. SCOPE OF WORK It is our intent to conduct a subsurface. exploration in order to obtain information abo~l sub grade support conditions and qepth to rock 8,1 the site of the pr.oposed sewers in Jeffersonvi11e~ Indiana. This exploration is not designed to produce information concerning contami.natitin or other environmental conditions. Boring and sounding locations were d~signated by your engineers and will be located in the field using standard taping procedures and available survey markers. No surveying equip'l'nent will be utilized in this exploration. It is aSisumed tb.at DNR representatives have a.greed to borings located in the roads, and appropriate representatives will be present to locate sewer and water connections after the borings are located. r\ \,--^ Ilutecbnlcal Enllnt.rlol flaDsnutlO1l Testing EnvironU18RtBl Services 03/02/2B07 13:32 8122180976 HAGERTY ENG PAGE 08 Longview Beach Sewe.rs Jf!/Jersonville, Indiana Mtlrch 2, 2fJt17 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). Th~ drill rig apparatus will be used to advance a total of twelve borings and eighteen rock soundings along the roadway. Twelve borings and 18 rock soundings will be advanced to refusal depths or 2 feet below design invert elevation, whichever is less. 011e boring also will be advanced. at the existing Happy Valley lift station, and will be advanced to' 40 feet or refusa1~ whichever is less. In the borings, standard penetration testing wilJ be performed at depths of 1.5 feet, 4.0 feet, 6.5 feet, 9.0 feet, 13.5 feet, 18.5 feet, and. 23.5 feet, where refusal is not shallower. Splitspoon samples will be obtained at each test interval. The samples will be classified inthefjeJd by an, engineer from our firm and will be placed in sealed jars and returned to the laboratory for testing. Groundwater. levels will be recorded at boring termination in all of the borings. Forty eight-hour groundwater readings will be taken. arid all borings will be backfilled after the borings are completed and capped with asphalt patch.; where appropriate. If. at any time during field activities, unanticipated soil conditions that could lead tn significant design or con.struction difficulties are encountered, you will be notified. ~' 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 v.rill include: I e-a description of the exploratory methods used . asphaltic concrete pavement thi.cknesses in the borings . aggregate base layer thicknesses in the borings . -descriptions of subsurface conditIons encountered in. the borings . a list of refusal depths in the soundings . -a summary of published geologic information . -a Boring/Sounding 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 cordi,fro 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 five to six days of authorizatioD~ weather permitting. Itis anticipated that exploratory activities can be compl,eted in three working days. As was previously noted, if, at any time during field activities, unanticipated soil conditions that cou14 lead to significant design or construction difficulties are en.countere~ you will be notified. A' v~bal report can be submitted within tw? wor~~ 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 perfonned for the lump sum fee of $8,000.00 (eight thousand dollars). Our fee is based on one drill rig mobilization, 303 feet of soil test drilling. and 323 feet of rock soundings.. This fee also is based on the assu.mption th~ site wiD be accessible to truck-mounted drilled equipment at the time of the subsurface exploration. All-terrain vehicles a.nd/or heavy equipment needed to move the drill rig on the site ~an be retained for an extra. ch8.l'ge. If addi....ional 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 requestl 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.
