DocuSign Envelope ID:2364CBD5-5A05-4BAC-BD85-FA3EA4597782 SCS ENGINEERS • Plan for public communications and engagement • Facility permitting requirements • Preliminary schedule for site selection,permitting, design, and construction • Potential risks to stakeholders represented by project implementation The Report will include a preliminary Facility pro forma model developed to communicate the anticipated fiscal considerations (expenses and revenues), outline a hypothetical funding structure, and address the potential savings to partner municipalities. The preliminary schedule will include aspects of the Facility development process, such as development of a Preliminary Engineering Report, candidate property identification/evaluation,property selection, conceptual design, final design, regulatory permitting, construction, and Facility commissioning. SCS will account for the durations that occur on projects of this nature, with some contingencies to allow for variables that may require a change in focus. Task 1 deliverables include an Executive Summary Needs Assessment Report and SCS' participation during a meeting with County and Town managers on 1/4/17 to discuss the relevant aspects and implications of the proposed regional Integrated Materials Management Facility. In addition, SCS will prepare and present the findings of the Executive Summary Needs Assessment during the SWAG meeting anticipated for 1/30/17. TASK 2 — PRELIMINARY ECONOMIC FEASIBILITY STUDY If the stakeholders decide to pursue the development of a regional Integrated Materials Management Facility based on the deliberations facilitated by the initial planning developments under Tasks 1, a Preliminary Economic Feasibility Study under Task 2 will be initiated. This Study will incorporate comments provided by the stakeholders (County and Town staff, SWAG committee, and elected officials) during Task 1. A kickoff meeting is expected, in which basic parameters of the project will be confirmed and set including timeframe, system components, key variables and data needs, communication protocols between County and Town personnel and the project team, and other elements not already established. SCS anticipates additional activities will involve the following: • Perform Preliminary Economic Analysis: SCS will refine the pro forma model developed as part of the previous efforts to incorporate costs incurred/eliminated from the perspective of the Towns in addition to the County. Develop an output summary of best case, worst case, and expected Net Present Value (NPV) and Internal Rate of Return(IRR) metrics based on the most feasible final disposal facility for waste transferred out of Orange County from the proposed Facility. • Develop Listing of Performance Specifications: SCS will develop a listing of quantitative performance specifications for the Facility including size, capacity, equipment, service lines, methods of operations, materials and style of construction, as well as important qualitative aspects such as environmental impact, impact on surrounding neighborhoods, safety, integration with current operations, and destination/control of the regional solid waste and recyclable materials stream. Because many of the considerations listed above have economic impacts, the 02238216 3 12/27/16
