Peer Engineering, Inc. 7615 Golden Triangle Dr., Suite N Eden Prairie, MN 55344 952- 831 -3341 Fax 952 -831 -4552 Mr. Joel Hanson City of Little Canada 515 Little Canada Road East Little Canada, Minnesota 55117 RE: Proposal for Environmental Consulting Services Pre - Demolition Asbestos and Hazardous Materials Survey 85 and 91 Viking Drive West 2250 Rice Street North Little Canada, Minnesota Dear Mr. Hanson: Peer V Engineering May 4, 2007 'LED mAY )'1 '7007 ';ff'Y OF i tf ILE CANADA Peer Engineering, Inc. (Peer) is pleased to provide this proposal for environmental consulting services at the above referenced properties. This proposal includes completion of a Pre - Demolition Asbestos and Hazardous Materials Surveys at the structures located at 85 and 91 Viking Drive West and 2250 Rice Street North. Scope of Services A Pre - Demolition Asbestos and Hazardous Materials Survey will be completed at each property. The purpose of this work is to identify regulated asbestos containing materials (ACM) and hazardous materials associated with the property structures that will require removal or special handling during future building demolitions. The work will be performed in accordance with generally recognized industry standards and current Minnesota Department of Health (MDH) guidelines, where applicable. The asbestos - related work will include a walk- through reconnaissance of the structures to identify suspect ACM. The suspect ACM will be inventoried and sampled for laboratory analysis. For purposes of this proposal, we have assumed that up to 30 samples of suspect material will be collected from each structure for asbestos analysis. We will employ destructive survey methods to ensure that all ACM is identified prior to building demolition as required MDH guidelines. The work related to hazardous building materials will include observations to identify building components that typically contain hazardous substances. Typical items addressed during hazardous materials inventories include fluorescent light bulbs and ballasts, mercury- containing switches and thermostats, lead paint, PCB - containing electrical equipment, and chemical containers. Testing of delaminated painted for lead will also be completed using a x -ray fluorescence (XRF) lead analyzer.
