N. Jackson Street Roadway Improvements
Athens, Tennessee
GEOServices Project No. A23110.00892
Dear Mr. Fiveash:  
GEOServices, LLC (GEOS) is pleased to provide you with our proposal for limited slope stability analysis for 
the subject project. The following proposal outlines our understanding of the project requirements based 
on the provided information and out subsequent phone and email conversations. This proposal provides a 
general description of the project, the associated costs, and the proposed schedule.  In addition, we have 
attached our Agreement for Services that establishes contractual arrangements. This attachment should be 
completed and forwarded to our office.    
PROJECT DESCRIPTION 
GEOS previously issued a Report of Geotechnical Exploration (Project No. A23110.00638) for the project 
dated November 15, 2023. Based on our conversations, we understand the southern shoulder of N. 
Jackson Street has experienced distre ss for some time. N. Jackson Street in this area is located at the 
crest of a slope which measures approximately 30 f eet in height at the hi ghest point. The slope 
separates the railroad tracks below from the road way. The roadway distress currently exists as 
longitudinal cracks that run parallel to the traffic on  North Jackson Street. We understand that proposed 
plans include removing the shoulder and shifting the roadway to the north away from the crest of the 
slope.
