DocuSign Envelope ID:2364CBD5-5A05-4BAC-BD85-FA3EA4597782 SCS ENGINEERS and Preliminary Conceptual Design Plan for the SWAG meeting anticipated for March or April 2017. TASK 5 — PRELIMINARY SIT E EVALUATIONS Upon receiving input from County and Town stakeholders and receiving authorization to proceed, SCS will perform additional work under Task 5 to include preliminary site evaluations of potential locations for the Facility on existing County or Town-owned parcels of land on an as-needed basis on up to four(4) parcels. SCS anticipates that a minimum of three (3)parcels within close proximity of existing solid waste facilities on Eubanks Road will need to be evaluated. SCS recognizes that the County wishes this task be performed quickly and deliberately upon the conclusion of Task 2 through 4 activities. SCS will perform a site reconnaissance at each candidate site to assess physical site conditions. Considerations such as geotechnical constraints,property layout and size, potential ingress/egress, and impact mitigation measures (buffer zones and screening) to reduce noise, dust, and odors will be assessed. In addition, environmental factors (such as storm water control, the proximity of floodplains, wetlands, and certain habitats)will also be assessed. Special attention will also be given to issues encountered during previous transfer station siting activities performed by the County prior to the closure of the Orange County Landfill. SCS will evaluate factors such as surrounding zoning and land use, traffic compatibility, and proximity to existing centralized operations and fleet yards in the context of these previous activities. Protected settings such as historical sites, archaeological areas, prime farmland, nature preserves and parks will also be identified if in close proximity to a candidate site. Using the needs, specifications, and conceptual design components along with additional criteria established by the County and Towns during Tasks 1 through 4, each site will be assessed for suitability for use as a location for the Facility. Based on the results of these evaluations, SCS will develop a Preliminary Site Evaluation Report. SCS will also prepare a presentation containing the findings of the Report and make a presentation at a SWAG meeting at a future date not included in previous tasks. 2 . WORK ORDER SCHEDULE: SCS is prepared to begin performing the work efforts identified under Task 1 as described above upon receiving authorization from the County to proceed and will complete the Report by 12/31/16. Upon authorization to proceed, Tasks 2 and 3 will be performed simultaneously, with completion scheduled for March 2017. The durations for submitting the deliverables under Tasks 2 and 3 will be discussed with the County prior to commencement of work efforts on these tasks. The schedule for accomplishing the Conceptual Design Plan under Task 4, and the Preliminary Site Evaluations under Task 5, will depend on the results of Tasks 1 through 3, but we anticipate each task will take a minimum of 3 to 4 weeks to complete. 02238216 6 12/27/16
