I iCLE/NFELOER Bright People.Right Solutions. • Pushprobe techniques are being proposed for this scope of work. The Client should be aware that this technique may be limited in its ability to penetrate hard soil, compacted soil, lime treated soil, etc., and additional means of investigation may be warranted depending upon actual Site conditions. Difficult probing conditions are likely to incur either additional costs or necessitate a reduced scope of work within the proposed time (single day). However, difficult conditions are not anticipated given the relatively shallow depths proposed. • The client should be aware that penetrating the site's surface is inherently risky. It is impossible to determine with certainty the precise location of all structures (such as irrigation lines, septic system tanks or leach fields) which may be buried in the ground. Kleinfelder's fee is not adequate to compensate for both the performance of the services and the assumption of risk of damage to such structures. USA at 1-800-642-2444 provides a partial location service free of charge for major utility lines. It is important that the client understand that subsurface structures buried under private property will not be marked by the public utility companies by USA. LIMITATIONS Kleinfelder prepared this Work Plan in accordance with generally accepted standards of care which exist in San Joaquin County, California, at this time. It should be recognized that definition and evaluation of geologic and environmental conditions are a difficult and inexact science. Judgments leading to conclusions and recommendations are generally made with incomplete knowledge of the subsurface conditions present. More extensive studies, including subsurface investigations, may be performed to reduce uncertainties. If the client wishes to reduce the uncertainties beyond the level associated with this workplan Kleinfelder can be notified for additional consultation. No warranty, expressed or implied, is made. Kleinfelder offers various levels of investigative and engineering services to suit the varying needs of different clients. Although risk can never be eliminated, more-detailed and extensive investigations yield more information, which may help understand and manage the level of risk. Since detailed investigation and analysis involves greater expense, our clients participate in determining levels of service which provide adequate information for their purposes at acceptable levels of risk. Acceptance of this workplan will indicate that Dameron has reviewed the scope of work and determined that it does not need or want a greater level of service than will be provided. Any exceptions should be noted and may result in higher fees. During the course of field activities performed by others, hazardous materials may be discovered. Unless caused by the negligence or willful misconduct, Kleinfelder will assume no responsibility or liability whatsoever for any claim, loss of property value, damage, or injury that results from pre-existing hazardous materials being encountered 124508.1/ST011 P171 Page 5 of 6 December 28, 2011 Copyright 2011 Kleinfelder
