Re: Proposal for Environmental Services
Subsurface Investigation
2112"l Street SW
Carmel, Indiana
August Mack Proposal Number PF459.30
Dear Mr. Klingensmith:
In accordance with your request, August Mack Environmental. Inc. (August Mack) has prepared
this proposal to evaluate the subsurface conditions at the above-referenced site. The proposal is
based on. our understanding of the site and•potential development as discussed during our site
visit on June 7; 2005. While August Mack has not performed a Phase I on this site, it is our
understanding that the site was developed in the 1950s as a grain elevator and was later occupied
by the Cannel Street Department from the mid-1980s to 2003. In order to evaluate the potential
impact from past site usage, August Mack proposes to perform a subsurface investigation at the
site as described in the following paragraphs.
•
SUBSURFACE INVESTIGATION
Seven (7) borings will be drilled at the site at locations depicted on the attached figure. At each
boring location, soil samples will be collected continuously from the ground surface to the water
table and visually inspected at two-foot intervals for evidence of contamination, such as staining
and/or odors: The soil will be lithologically classified and screened for the presence of total
photoionizing vapors by headspace analysis using Hnu®O photoionizing detector (Pm). The
results of the headspace,analysis will be recorded on a boring log along with the lithological
description. Once all sampling is complete, all soil borings will be sealed with bentonite and the
surface will be patched to match the existing ground or asphalt surface.
It is anticipated that soil and groundwater samples will be collected from all borings. The soil
and groundwater samples will be analyzed for volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and
polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons (PASS). These selected parameters arc associated with
■ historical use of the study site (i.e. grain elevator, equipment maintenance, AST usage, etc.).

REPORTING
Following completion of the field activities and receipt of the laboratory analyses, a final letter
report will be prepared that will describe in detail the work performed and will present
conclusions regarding environmental conditions at the site.
COST INFORMATION
The lump sum cost for the Geoprobet® soil sampling, laboratory analysis, and preparation of the
subsurface investigation report is $5,920. A breakdown of the proposed costs associated with
this work is provided below in Table 1.
TABLE 1
TASK COST:,:
Sample Collection and Field Activities $2,600
Laboratory Analysis $1,820
7 soil samples for VOC and PAH ($130/sample)
> 7 groundwater samples for VOC and FAH ($130/sample) _
Project Management and Reporting $1,500
Total $5,920
If during the course of the sampling operations, unusual conditions are. encountered, (e.g.,
heaving sand, bedrock, rough and blocky fill, sampler refusal, the presence of free product or
gross contamination, etc.) you will be notified and the price will be adjusted if appropriate.
Additionally, any delays, obstructions or other limitations caused by the client or his agents will
result in additional charges to the client. August Mack will have all of the underground utilities

situation will be discussed.
