Dear Tim:
Thank you for the opportunity to continue my long history of working with you and many other City staff to
provide engineering service for the City water system. This opportunity is personal, as well as professional
for me, since I began planning the system with Don Volk several decades ago and was largely responsible for
planning, designing, and construction most of your facilities. I am looking forward to working with the City
on the construction of Well No. 6.
My 35 years of engineering experience in the water industry has given me the opportunity to work
repeatedly with all the major well drilling companies and earn their respect. I have completed the design
and construction of dozens of wells, well rehabs, abandonments, and repairs—experience that will be
directly relevant in executing this project for the City.
I have prepared a Scope of Services, and a Not -to -Exceed cost of $24,600, for your review. Please read
through the scope as if you were repeating the construction of Well 2, or 4, or 5, and if you can find anything
that I have overlooked, I guarantee it'll be taken care of. I will be happy to provide a breakdown of our hours
and fees at your request.

• Provide tentative schedule; design, bidding, construction, testing
• Obtain background information - site drawings
