Mr. Himanshu Mehta, P.E. 5 November 2021 Page 2 Geosyntec consultants Indian River County Board of County Commissioners (BCC) supported the submittal of an application by TCRPC for a United States Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) Brownfields Coalition Assessment Grant to facilitate additional work on this Site. TCRPC was awarded the Brownfields Coalition Assessment Grant in May 2015. Since May 2015, Geosyntec, TCRPC, and IRC worked with the Gifford community on a conceptual design for the redevelopment of the Former Gifford Road Landfill. The conceptual design was broken down into six separate phases, including the Phase I land clearing and landscaping work described earlier. The BCC requested that the SWDD move forward and obtain a cost proposal (from Geosyntec) to implement Phase 1. Project Number 91080185 "South Gifford Landfill" was submitted to the Community Development Department and review comments from the associated pre -application conference were issued in a letter dated 27 August 2019. Geosyntec and IRC SWDD have collaborated to address review comments and finalize the conceptual Phase I design plans. PROPOSED SCOPE OF WORK This proposed scope of work has been divided into the following tasks, which are described in more detail below: (i) Task 1 — Project Management and Meetings, (ii) Task 2 — Finalize Design Plans, (iii) Task 3 — Administrative Approval Application Submittal, (iv) Task 4 — Finalize Bid Specification Package, and (v) Task 5 — Bid Phase Support and Environmental Resource Permit (ERP) Exemption Assistance. The remainder of this section presents a general description of the activities to be performed as part of each task. Task 1— Proiect Management and Meetings Under this task, Geosyntec will perform project planning and management responsibilities, such as correspondence with IRC and our subcontractors, invoice review, project coordination, and project administration. Geosyntec will prepare for and attend up to two meetings, with IRC SWDD and/or IRC Board of County Commission, as necessary. It has been assumed that one of these meetings will be in person and one meeting will be by conference call (12 hours of Project Professional time is included). In additional to costs for meeting attendance, approximately 10% of total proposed labor costs are included for project management activities. Task 2 — Finalize Design Plans Under this task, Geosyntec will work with IRC SWDD to review comments provided by the IRC Community Development Department in a letter dated 27 August 2019 and revise the conceptual design plans accordingly. Geosyntec will work with our subcontractor, Schmidt Nichols Landscape Architecture and Urban Planning (Schmidt Nichols) to revise the landscape design plan as requested by the Community Development Department. In addition, the Phase I redevelopment area will be shifted approximately 200 feet east to better accommodate future development plans. The new proposed Phase I area will occupy the space that will be developed as a Farmer's Market/Open Air Pavilion and Equipment Building in Phase II. Due to the eastward shift, additional tree inventory is needed. Geosyntec XR21046.docx engineers I scientists I innovators
