6.B.(2) Proposal for Phase I Environmental Assessment

Home Browse Search

Please note that this ESTIMATED COST should be considered a Project Maximum, which PES will not exceed without prior approval. However, should the scope of services require modification (i.e., additional borings) based upon field conditions and/or circumstances that would not have otherwise been anticipated, PES will notify the client of such "changed conditions" and resultant cost implications to the project. Should Geoprobe services require only 1/2-day for completion of boring/temporary wells, a rate adjustment will be reflected within the invoice. Should PES fail to encounter groundwater within the upper 30 feet of the soil profile, the invoice will reflect the fact that groundwater samples were not submitted to the laboratory for analysis (credits applied). LIMITATIONS/QUALIFICATIONS The sampling and testing of soil, groundwater and/or other materials not specifically identified in this proposal is beyond the scope of services for this project. Cost estimates for our proposed services have been prepared based on the following assumptions: • PES will have unlimited access to the site during daylight hours; • No subsurface obstructions (buried utilities or fill debris) will interfere with our work; • Sufficient access will be provided for Geoprobe locations; • Inclement weather will not interfere with the completion of our field work; • Soil cuttings will be returned to the boring from which they were generated, with the remainder of the boring filled with bentonite pellets to land surface. This Phase II Environmental Site Assessment should be considered as a "tool" in the evaluation of the subject site relative to the potential presence of contaminants, and does not necessarily fulfill regulatory requirements of the Indiana Department of Environmental Management (IDEM) for delineation of contaminants identified within soil or groundwater. Should contamination be identified through completion of this Phase II Environmental Site Assessment, additional assessment may be necessary.
