Proposal for Geotechnical Services and Phase I ESA <br /> Orange County Jail Site <br /> Hillsborough,Orange County,North Carolina <br /> ECS Proposal Number 06:17061 <br /> utilities located in the vicinity of the project site. Normally, this includes water, gas, sewer, <br /> electrical power, telephone, and cable. The individual companies mark their utilities using <br /> spray paint, but only extend to the meter. It is the client's responsibility to identify other <br /> utilities. <br /> • ECS herein asks that the client notify us of all utilities located on-site, particularly those <br /> utilities beyond the meter or private utilities that are not identified by the North Carolina One- <br /> Call Center. While ECS will take precautions to avoid utilities that the owner notifies ECS of, <br /> ECS is not responsible for utilities that the North Carolina One-Call Center does not mark. <br /> • Hiring Private Locator services is beyond the scope of this proposal and not included. <br /> However, for an additional fee, ECS can retain a private locator to locate utilities beyond the <br /> meters and private utilities. If this is needed on this project, please identify this on the <br /> attached "Proposal Acceptance Form." <br /> SCHEDULE OF WORK <br /> We will begin the above scope of work immediately after receiving your written authorization to <br /> proceed. Our work starts with our contacting the public utility locator service, but we cannot <br /> begin work on-site until they have completed their location work, usually within 48 hours, <br /> excluding weekends and holidays. <br /> Based on current availability and weather permitting, we anticipate that the field work will begin <br /> within 3 to 5 business days of written authorization to proceed. We anticipate that the field work <br /> will take about 2 business days to complete, and the reports will be provided within 15 business <br /> days after receiving written authorization to proceed. In order to maintain this schedule, it is <br /> critical that we receive your written authorization, special instructions and distribution list in a <br /> timely manner. <br /> AUTHORIZATION <br /> If the above scope of work is acceptable to you, please sign the Proposal Acceptance Form and <br /> return one copy of the proposal acceptance form to us.
