Mr. Himanshu H. Mehta, P.E. 11 July 2007 Page 2 5031 -0128769-008 and S031 -0128769-009. The overall IRCL site occupies 276 acres, with 63 acres used for Class I disposal and 22 acres used for C&D disposal. Waste materials accepted for the Class I landfill disposal include residential, commercial, agricultural, and industrial wastes. The landfill serves the unincorporated Indian River County and municipalities of Vero Beach, Orchid, Fellsmere, Sebastian, Indian River Shores, and Wabasso, Florida. SWDD initially intended to permit and construct new Class I landfill and unlined C&D disposal facility expansions within the 276-acre permitted facility. However, a recent feasibility study (see Appendix A), completed by Geosyntec at the request of SWDD, concluded that co-disposal of the C&D debris and the Class I municipal solid waste (MSW) in a lined Class I landfill would provided both economic and environmental (in the long-term) benefits to SWDD and IRC. The new Class I landfill expansion will consist of the design and permitting of the currently permitted C&D Cell 2 facility as a lateral expansion of the Class I Segment 3 landfill as an amendment to Work Order No. 4. Figure 1 shows the layout of the proposed Class I landfill lateral expansion. Geosyntec has essentially completed the design and permitting of the 44-acre Class I Segment 3 landfill, as originally authorized by SWDD under Work Order No . 4, and intends to submit the permit application to FDEP by 15 August 2007. Therefore, a new or substantial permit modification application will have to prepared and submitted to FDEP for the lateral expansion of Segment 3 to include the 33 -acre C&D Cell 2 area. PROPOSED SCOPE OF WORK The proposed scope of work includes activities to be performed on behalf of SWDD for the design and permitting services for the 33-acre area as a Class I landfill lateral expansion. The scope of work is based on the requirements of Chapter 62-701 of the Florida Administrative Code (FAC). Geosyntec will provide the engineering services necessary to amend the permit application and address any comments or requests for additional information fiorn FDEP for issuance of the amended permit for the landfill expansion. For the purpose of budgeting, the scope of work has been divided into the following six main tasks: • Task 1 — General Consulting/Meeting Support/Project Management; • Task 2 — Hydrogeological/ Geotechnical Investigations; • Task 3 — Design and Permit Application; • Task 4 — Environmental Resource Permit (ERP) Modification; XL06096\Amendment to Class I landfill resign Work Ordmdoc engineers I scientists I innovators
