E . <br /> County Engineer <br /> Subject: Proposal for Subsurface Soil Exploration <br /> 201h Avenue SW Improvements <br /> Between 17th Place SW and 2y ' Street SW <br /> Indian River County, Florida <br /> Dear Mr. Kafer: <br /> As you requested , we are pleased to present the following proposal for conducting a subsurface <br /> soil exploration for the subject project . Based on our understanding of the project, various roadway <br /> improvements are proposed for the above referenced project. <br /> The scope of ourwork as described by Mr. Mike Fogarty with GL Homes , will include exploring the <br /> shallow soil conditions and groundwater table levels at locations along the proposed alignment of <br /> the roadway. Specifically, we would perform auger borings at approximate 150-foot spacings and <br /> 5-foot offsets (staggered) from the proposed roadway centerline . According to Mr. Fogarty, the <br /> proposed centerline will be outside of the existing roadway, and therefore, coring of the existing <br /> asphalt surface and maintenance of traffic (MOT) will not be necessary . <br /> The following summarizes the scope of service and associated fees for conducting the subject <br /> exploration . <br /> FIELD EXPLORATION <br /> The scope of service for this project includes performing 32 auger borings . The auger borings will <br /> be performed using either 4-inch diameter, continuous flight auger or a 3-inch diameter hand <br /> ( bucket) auger to a depth of 2 to 3 feet below the encountered groundwater table level or to a <br /> maximum depth of 6 feet, whichever is encountered first. Soil samples will be removed from the <br /> auger in the field and then examined and visually classified by our field representative . <br /> Representative portions will be sealed and packaged for transportation to our laboratory for further <br /> analysis as required . Water level observations will be made in the boreholes during the drilling <br /> operation . <br /> In the event that unsuitable soil conditions ( i . e- organic muck , etc. ) are encountered during <br /> performance of the borings , we would perform additional auger borings as needed to attempt to <br /> determine the approximate limits of the unsuitable material within the proposed roadway <br /> improvements areas . <br /> 460 NW Concourse Place - Unit 1 , Port St. Lucie, Florida 34986 Phone (772 ) 878-0072 FAX (772) 878-0097 <br /> Offices in 3ano,v Cote. —ort : aloe gale Foe V,/pm Via --. :.
