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 :
