_ g(1lPH Community & Economic Development 1200 County-City Building, 227 West Jefferson, Sours Deno, indiond 46601 -1830 ♦ Phone 5741235 -9371 ♦ Fax 5741235-9021 To: Redevelopment Commission From: Ann Kolata & Bill Schalliol Subject: Proposal from Weaver Boos Consultants LLC Ivy Tower Facility Renovation Project Date: July 23, 2012 Attached is a proposal from Weaver Boos Consultants LLC for environmental services related to the Ivy Tower Facility Renovation Project. As you are aware, the Commission has entered into a MOU with Union Station Properties that includes environmental remediation at the current Ivy Tower property. This included providing a Phase 1 and Phase 11 Environmental Assessment and remediation of asbestos and lead based paint currently in the building. Recently we have determined that a third environmental issue, transformers and associated PCBs, will need to be addressed as part of the site clean-up. There are four transformer rooms and each unit within the rooms will need to be investigated and likely need remediation. Also, the concrete floors of the transformer rooms need to be investigated to determine whether PCB contamination is present and, if so, what remediation needs to take place. Weaver Boos was selected to handle the remediation based on their work at the former foundry demolition, handling a complicated remediation in a very efficient manner. Weaver Boos will also assist us in coordinating the remediation work with the rehabilitation of the building by the private developer, The proposal outlines the following four tasks: • Review the environmental information that is currently available and conduct a comprehensive walk through of the property. This task also includes the coring of the floors in the transformer rooms and the analysis of those samples. • Prepare bid documents for the remediation work. • Provide one hour on -call service during remediation and remediation oversight. • Project management and coordination, The work will be billed on a time and material basis. Weaver Boos assumed a two year time frame for all of this work. If it is completed more quickly, then the number of hours billed could be significantly less than the number of hours assumed for this proposal. The cost of the proposal is not to exceed $198,720. The staff recommends approval of this proposal.
