Re: Geotechnical Investigation Utility Locates
Western Avenue Streetscape
Supplemental No. 1 for Private Utility Locates
Dear Mr. Horvath,
During the geotechnical investigation, insufficient utility location information was obtained through conventional
methods. There were numerous underground utilities near the proposed boring locations that were unable to be
accurately located/marked by the City. As such, we needed to contract a private locator to assist with advancing the
borings to limit the risk of drilling into an underground utility for both our safety and for the convenience and safety of
the residents and businesses affected by those utilities. The use of private locates was not anticipated and therefore
not included in our original fee proposal.
HWC is requesting reimbursement for the private locator fees in the amount of $1,300.00.
If you have any questions or would like to discuss this further, please feel free to contact me.
Sincerely,
Joshua P. Grabijas, PE
Project Manager
