SOUTH BEND REAEVELOPMENT COMMMION —IVY TOWER FACILITY RENOVATION PROJECT Proposal for Environmental Services Closely coordinate with City and Developer's consultants during the creation of bid document and the entire renovation project; + Provide reasonable timely response (approximately 1 hour or less) to on -call requests prior to and during the entire renovation project; and + Attend all scheduled project meetings with City and Developer's representatives. 1.3 Summary of Approach Weaver Boos understands that the goal of the City is to remove the environmental impediments associated with the proposed renovation project so that ultimately the Site may be redeveloped as planned by the Developer. Weaver Boos recognizes that due to the age of the buildings and the operations conducted inside each building, and the results of the WPI investigations, several factors need to be considered prior to renovation, including: 1. Existing and possible environmental impacts to the Site; 2. Working as part of the City's project team in assisting the Developer to obtain their goal of renovating the Site as proposed. 3. The planned reuse of the Site. To elate, Weaver Boos has only been provided a preliminary general idea of the planned reuse. 4. Potential unforeseen environmental concerns that are discovered during renovation (i.e. soil contamination or UST in a proposed utility excavation). To accomplish the City's objectives, Weaver Boos will work closely with the City and Developer, and the City and Developer's legal and engineering representatives prior to and during the planned renovation. In preparation of this proposal, Weaver Boos reviewed past environmental reports prepared by Wightman Petrie, Inc., briefly toured the Site, and reviewed past site plans of the Site. Using this information, in conjunction with any additional information Weaver Boos anticipates will be provided by the City (including any additional environmental assessment activities and, if available, building specifications), local historical societies or museums (building drawings and other available documentation), and additional yet preliminary site visits or investigations (further quantification and/or characterization of environmental conditions), Weaver Boos will create the environmental remediation specifications. Weaver Boos will also assist the City during pre -bid or preconstruction meetings and any site walk - through that may be required.
