City of South Bend June 3, 2013 Page 3 of 5 rubberized materials), 2. documentation indicates that the materials used in manufacture are non -ACM, or 3. sampling and analysis are performed. According to OSHA Construction Standards, negative analysis for a minimum of three (3) samples is required to conclusively determine a material as being non -ACM. In addition, all of the samples must be from the same homogeneous area (color, texture and estimated date of installation). Jones Petrie Rafinski will attempt, through application of our sampling strategy, to make a determination of the asbestos content of any identified homogeneous materials for which sampling is in fact performed (i.e., certain materials may be assumed to be asbestos - containing). COST INFORMATION AND SCHEDULE Jones Petrie Rafinski proposes to perform the Asbestos Surveys for the following fees: Field Services and Reporting $1,200.00 Laboratory Fees $300.00 Total Fee $1,500.00 The Asbestos Containing Material Survey may be performed for an Estimated Fee of $1,500. Please note that this fee includes the sampling and analysis of up to 25 "suspect' Asbestos - Containing Building Materials. Analysis in excess of 25 "suspect' materials will be performed on a unit cost basis of $251sample. We would anticipate completion of the Asbestos Containing Materials Survey within three weeks of receiving written Authorization to Proceed, depending on building access and the need for any equipment that may require mobilization to allow for sampling inaccessible areas of the building. Within approximately one (1) week of acceptance of this proposal, Jones Petrie Rafinski can begin our initial walkthrough activities. We would anticipate actual sampling activities to be completed during one day. Laboratory analysis will be performed on a one (1) week turnaround from the time that the samples have been received by the laboratory. Jones Petrie Rafinski will provide the City of South Bend with a verbal summary of the results within two (2) days of receipt of all analytical data from the laboratory. A Letter Report summarizing the methods employed for the collection and analysis of samples, as well as estimated quantities and recommendations for additional actions, will be presented within one (1) week of the date of verbal debriefing` QUALIFICATIONS Jones Petrie Rafinski assumes that immediate access will be provided upon proposal acceptance. We have also assumed that sampling efforts will be destructive in nature. Please note that our proposal does not include any costs for the rental of any scaffolding or hydraulic lift equipment to reach high ceilings or areas that would not be considered as readily accessible by ladder. Certain "conditions" may escape detection due to: 1. limitations in the scope of this assessment, 2. inaccuracy and/or limited availability of documentation made available to Jones Petrie Rafinski at the time of the survey, and 3. inaccessible areas. If this assessment includes a review of documents prepared by others, it must be recognized that Jones Petrie Rafinski has no responsibility for the accuracy of such information.
