This proposal will outline our understanding of the project, the <br />scope of work we are to provide, and a fee schedule for our services. <br /> <br />It is our understanding that this project consists of evaluating four sites for construction of a 1.5 <br />million gallon composite water tower. It is desired to support the tower on spread footings. We <br />were provided with a sketch indicating the general location of the four potential sites, enclosed. <br /> <br />The City of Lino Lakes requested our services to determine the subsurface soil and <br />groundwater conditions. <br /> <br />A. Project Objectives <br /> <br />Based upon our experience with similar projects the objective of our geotechnical services <br />include preforming subsurface borings, classify and analyze the soil samples, discuss <br />groundwater issues, discuss frost susceptibility, and prepare recommendations for foundation <br />support. <br /> <br />B. Scope of Basic Services <br /> <br />Based on our understanding of the project we proposed the following scope of services: <br /> <br />1. Site Access <br /> <br />For this proposal, we have assumed that the sites can be accessed with our CME-55 <br />truck mounted auger drill. It should be noted that if the borings are located off the <br />pavement in a landscaped area, our drill rig will likely cause rutting and tearing of the <br />lawn and may damage any shallow utilities or irrigation lines. Sidewalks too can be <br />damaged by the drilling rig. We will take reasonable precautions, however, WSB will not
