Proposal for Geotechnical Services and Phase I ESA Orange County Jail Site Hillsborough,Orange County,North Carolina ECS Proposal Number 06:17061 Phase I ESA The work activities under this phase are normally completed within 15 to 21 business days upon written authorization. Phase I ESAs do not involve sub-surface investigations, environmental sampling or chemical analyses. The primary objectives of a typical Phase I ESA are to: 1, Assess the probability of contamination of the surface water, groundwater, or soils within the property boundaries (unless otherwise requested, structural, asbestos, lead, radon or wetlands evaluations are generally not performed); 2. Determine, if contamination is believed to have occurred, the potential source material(s) and location(s); 3. Provide a written assessment which includes our conclusions and recommendations. Prior to an on-site assessment of the property under review, available pertinent records, documents, photographs, and maps will be compiled and reviewed. These tasks are performed to identify previous activities at or near the site under review that might have had a negative impact on the soils and groundwater associated with the property. Upon completion of a Phase I ESA, a report in ASTM E1527-05 format is submitted that would include: • Summary of the site location and history; • Regional geologic and hydrogeologic characteristics; • Documentation of field investigation methods, activities, and results; • Documentation and review of client, facility, public, and regulatory records; • Photographic records of unusual or questionable site conditions encountered; • Our professional opinion concerning the presence or indicated absence of environmental conditions for the site;and • Recommendations for further investigative activities, if warranted. 8
