EXHIBIT A-1 KRAZAN&ASSOCIATES,INC. Proposal No.G18689WAL Everett Water Main Replacement"U" Everett,WA August 16,2018 Page 4 5. Geotechnical Communications,Design Report and Meetings A Statement of Qualifications and the resumes of key personnel are attached to this proposal. Our geotechnical engineer and geologist will be available to provide a summary of the subsurface conditions encountered in the explorations and answer questions after the field work is completed. During the construction phase of the project, our representative will be available,under a separate contract, to travel to the site on an as-needed basis to observe the soil conditions to confirm that they are consistent with the findings of our geotechnical evaluation. A separate cost estimate for construction monitoring can be given at a later date, at your request. We will coordinate with the City's survey consultant to allow time to locate the borings and establish ground elevations. 6. Project Milestones The project schedule in Exhibit A-1 indicates the Notice to Proceed (NTP) will be September 1,2018. The fieldwork would commence as soon as possible upon receiving your authorization to proceed, upon obtaining utility clearances, and the availability of the subcontracted flaggers and drill rig. We will begin laboratory testing immediately upon completing the field exploration. We intend to submit a Draft Report on or before October 19, 2018. We anticipate submitting our Final Geotechnical Engineering Report by October 26,2018. 7. Prevailing Wages Our cost estimate includes prevailing wages for drilling and traffic control operations. COST ESTIMATE A detailed unit price schedule and budget estimate for the scope of a geotechnical engineering investigation and report is attached to this proposal for your review. In developing this cost estimate,we have assumed that adequate access will be available to the soil boring locations, and that permission to access the site will be provided by you. We have also included a copy of the WSDOT Acceptance FYE 2016 ICR letter for Krazan for your review. The estimated total cost is based on our being able to acquire sufficient information with the proposed field investigation methods. If unforeseen conditions are encountered and we are not able to complete the study at the proposed cost, we will contact you immediately to discuss a revised scope of work and a revised cost estimate. We would be able to mobilize and begin our investigation as soon as practical, primarily based on the availability of the subcontracted drill rig,and assuming we have acceptable access to the property. Please arrange access to the site and inform us of the locations of any underground utilities. Krazan&Associates,Inc. Offices Serving The Western United States
