Box 30428 Raleigh, North Carolina 27622 Attention: Mr. Donald L. Cordell, P.E. Reference: Proposal for Subsurface Investigation Efland-Cheeks Township Sanitary Sewer Facilities Orange County, Hillsborough, North Carolina Gentlemen: Soil & Material Engineers, Inc. is pleased to present this proposal for performing a subsurface investigation for the proposed Efland-Creeks sanitary sewer facilities in Orange County and Hillsborough, North Carolina. It is our understanding that this project will involve the construction of approximately 18,900 feet of 8-inch force main water line, approximately 29,000 feet of 8 to 12-inch gravity sewer line, 1 pump station, and 4I bored and jacked road crossing locations. The new gravity line will be located in and around the township of Efland, North Carolina. The new force main will begin at the proposed site of the McGowan Creek pump station on Efland-Grove Road and will extend southward to U.S. 70 and then will parallel U.S. 70 to the east for approximately!17,600 feet. The 4 proposed bore and jack locations are all located along U.S. Highway 70. Based upon a site reconnaissance of the line locations, it appears that portions of the gravity line are located in woods that are presently inaccessible to drill equipment. We propose to utilize standard penetration test boring and seismic refraction techniques (inl, the woods) to evaluate subsurface conditions along the length of the proposed lines, the proposed pump station and bore and jack locations to provide contractors with sufficient information to bid on the project based on unclassified excavation. As a minimum, we propose to obtain an indication of rock depth at approximately I 600 foot intervals along the entire combined length of approximately 48,000 feet of the proposed lines. These locations have been preliminarily selected based on a cursory site reconnaissance to concentrate borings and seismic profiles in those areas which appear to most likely have difficult excavation or difficult excavation potential. For estimating, cost, we have reviewed the available site and profile plans and proposed preliminary boring depths at each proposed boring location. The attached Table 1 presents our proposed boring locations and depths. We propose to provide these services on a unit price basis in accordance with the attached Schedule of Fees. Based on the quantities of work outlined in Table 2, we RALEIGHi, GREENSBORO, ASHEVILLE, WILMINGTON, FAYETTEVILLE, (HARLOT"E NC CL 'f SPARTAt�:Bl1RCa, (._ 1.1, CH/11"'.L- ■TON, r.411RTLE L'•EACli, GC ATLANTA,ALBANY, GA--T ,!
