Proposal for Geotechnical Exploration and Design Services GEOServices Proposal No. 14‐22643 N. Jackson Street Improvements – Athens, Tennessee December 22, 2022 3 | Page Pavement recommendations for flexible pavement types. Unsatisfactory soil conditions and recommended remedial measures. Anticipated difficult excavation conditions (if encountered). Recommendations for subgrade remediation (if required). Recommendations for slope stabilization (if required). FEES Based on the scope of services described above, the cost to perform the geotechnical expl oration will be as follows: 1) Traffic Control (1 day) $2,000 2) Field Exploration (105 ft with ATV rig) $3,000 3) Laboratory Testing $ 350 4) Engineering Services $2,500 Total $7,850 Should additional drilling be requested, we can perform this drilling at a cost of $17/foot as long as an extra mobilization is not necessary. Traffic control is provided for the drilling process, however, if the City is willing to provide the traffic control that cost can be removed. Should conditions be enco untered such that additional services appear to be in the best interest of the project, we would contact you with our recommendations prior to proceeding with any services beyond the scope of this proposal. We will not exceed this proposal amount without written authorization from you. PROJECT SCHEDULE Based on our current sche dule, we are prepared to initiate our geotechnical services immediately upon receipt of your written authorization to proceed, with mobilization to the project site within approximately two to three weeks. Per Tennessee law, a three‐day utility clearance period is required before any excavation or drilling can begin. Tenn essee One Call will provide location of public utilities; any private utility location will be the responsibility of the owner. We anticipate that the field exploration will be completed in one working day. Verbal preliminary information can be provided at the completion of the field work, if necessary. The subsurface report will be submitted approxi mately seven to ten working days after the completion of the field exploration (to allow for lab testing completion). 99
