Nixon , P .E. Subject: Proposal for Limited Subsurface Soil Exploration and Construction Materials Testing Services 8" Ct. SW from 9" St. SW south approximately 400 L .F. Indian River County, Florida IRC Project #03107 Dear Mr. Nixon: As requested, we are pleased to present the following proposal for conducting two shallow auger borings and the construction materials testing services for the subject project. Based on information provided to us, we understand that the project includes constructing stormwater improvements along the subject portion of the roadway that will be paved in the near future. Shallow soil stratigraphy and groundwater table levels are needed for this phase of the project. Testing services will also be performed during the construction phase of the project. The following summarizes the requested scope of work and associated fees for conducting the subject exploration . FIELD EXPLORATION As discussed, our field exploration program will consist of performing two auger borings to a depth of approximately 6 feet below ground surface- The borings will 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 our field personnel . Representative portions will be sealed and packaged for transportation to our laboratory for further analysis as required. Water level observations will be made in the boreholes during the drilling operation. The boreholes will be backfilled with excavated material upon completion of the field program . LABORATORY TESTING Routine laboratory visual classification will be performed along with specific classification tests deemed necessary (i.e. , sieve analysis, Atterberg limits and organic contents ). 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 data report upon conclusion of the exploration . COST ESTIMATE The costs associated with the aforementioned tasks are presented below- The total cost will not be exceeded without prior authorization. Our estimated geotechnical and construction materials testing services are itemized as follows : 460 Concourse Place NW, Unit 1 , Port St. Lucie, Florida 34986, Phone (772) 878-0072 FAX (772) 878-0097 Offices in.
