Mr. Himanshu H. Mehta, P.E. 7 July 2014 Page 2 Site were identified by TCRPC for potential brownfields redevelopment to provide enhancement to the surrounding Vero Beach community, and therefore; the preliminary assessment activities were focused on this area. The preliminary assessment activities focused on: (i) identification of contaminant concentrations in shallow soil above applicable regulatory criteria; (ii) presence of landfill cover thickness of at least two feet (ft); and (iii) composition of soil gas in subsurface soil, including the presence of methane, which is found in landfill gas (LFG) and can be attributable to other sources as well. When this assessment was originally contemplated, IRC planned to fund additional assessment activities based on the initial results to further the evaluation of the Site for future redevelopment/reuse purposes. The additional assessment activities, which are described herein, are designed with the same objectives as the preliminary TCRPC-funded work and focused on the remaining 25 acres of IRC -owned portion of the property (southwestern wooded area). PROPOSED SCOPE OF WORK The proposed scope of work consists of additional assessment activities to be performed within the 25 acre assessment area on behalf of IRC SWDD at the Former South Gifford Road Landfill. For the purpose of budgeting, the scope of work has been divided into the following tasks: • Task 1 — Project Management; • Task 2 — Meetings/Regulatory Negotiation • Task 3 — Field Activities; and • Task 4 — Data Evaluation and Reporting. The remainder of this section presents a general description of the activities to be performed in each task. Task 1 — Project Management: Under this task, Geosyntec will perform project planning and management responsibilities, such as correspondence with IRC SWDD and FDEP, invoice review, project coordination, and project administration. Task 2 — Meetings/Regulatory Interaction: Under this task, Geosyntec will prepare for and attend up to three meetings, with IRC SWDD, FDEP, local community organizations and/or the IRC Board of County Commission (BOCC), as necessary. It is anticipated that one of these meetings will include preparation for and attendance at a Gifford Progressive Civic League to present an update on the redevelopment assessment activities and results conducted to date with the TCRPC. The budget assumes that Nandra Weeks, PE (Geosyntec principal that has historical knowledge of the assessment work completed to date at the Site and has been involved for some time with IRC SWDD and the BOCC with exploring redevelopment options for the Site) and Keith Tolson, PhD (Geosyntec toxicologist). Also, under this task, four hours has been included for the project manager to provide ongoing support to IRC SWDD related to interaction and negotiation with FDEP.
