Attention: Mr. Mike Mezzina
Subject: Proposal for Soil Permeability Testing
101 " Avenue Extension
Indian River County, Florida
Dear Mr. Mezzina:
As requested, we are pleased to present the following proposal for conducting soil permeability testing
for the subject project. Based on information provided to us, we understand that the project includes
stormwater retention swales along the proposed roadway extension . Shallow soil stratigraphy and
permeability data and an estimate of the normal seasonal high groundwater table level are needed for
the design of the swales.
The following summarizes our proposed scope of work and associated fees for conducting the subject
exploration .
FIELD EXPLORATION
As discussed , our field exploration program will consist of performing five auger borings to a depth of
approximately 6 feet below ground surface . The boringswill be conducted using a 3-inch diameter hand
(bucket) auger in the vicinity of the locations selected by the client. Each sample will be removed from
the auger in the field and then examined and visually classified by ourfield personnel . Representative
portions will be sealed and packaged fortransportation to ourlaboratory forfurther analysis as required.
Water level observations will be made in the boreholes during the drilling operation.
In addition, a shallow test pit will be excavated by hand adjacent to each of the boring locations to a
depth ranging from approximately 1 to 3 feet. At the bottom of the test pit, a 3-inch diameter Shelby
tube sample of soil will be obtained in a vertical orientation for permeability testing in our laboratory.
A second Shelby tube sample will also be obtained from the sidewall of each test pit in a horizontal
orientation. The boreholes and test pits will be backfilled with excavated material upon completion of
the field program .
LABORATORY TESTING
Routine laboratory visual classification will be performed alongwith specificclassification tests -deemed
necessary (i.e. , sieve analysis, Atterberg limits and organic contents). Constant-head laboratory
permeability tests will be performed on the Shelby tube samples obtained from the test pits.

ENGINEERING ANALYSIS AND REPORT
All data obtained will be made to evaluate general subsurface conditions. The data developed during
the exploration will be submitted in a written report upon conclusion of the exploration . We will also
provide an estimate of the normal seasonal high groundwater table level at the boring locations .

TERMS AND CONDITIONS
This proposal is subject to the following terms and conditions : (1 ) access to testing locations is to be
readily available to our field personnel, (2) the proposed number tests and the associated depths will
be adequate, (3) undisturbed samples and consolidation tests on fine grained soils are not budgeted
into the total cost and (4) Ardaman & Associates cannot take responsibility for damages to underground
structures and/or services ; their locations are to be provided by the client prior to commencement of the
field work.
CLOSURE
We appreciate the opportunity to submit this proposal and look forward to working with you on this
project. If this proposal meets with your approval , please indicate your acceptance by issuing the work
order that will be assigned to this project. Please calf if you have any questions or require additional
