m KLEINFELDER <br />6 LIMITATIONS <br />Kleinfelder has prepared this workplan in accordance with the generally accepted standards of <br />care which exist in San Joaquin County California at the time of writing. It should be recognized <br />that definition and evaluation of geologic and chemical subsurface conditions are difficult. <br />Judgments leading to conclusions and recommendations are generally made with an incomplete <br />knowledge of the subsurface and/or historic conditions applicable to the site. More extensive <br />studies may further reduce the uncertainties associated with this assessment. Kleinfelder should <br />be notified for additional consultation if the client wishes to reduce the uncertainties beyond the <br />level associated with this report. No warranty, expressed or implied, is made. <br />Kleinfelder offers various levels of investigative and engineering services to suit the varying <br />needs of different clients. Although risk can never be eliminated, more detailed and extensive <br />investigations yield more information, which may help understand and manage the level of risk. <br />Since detailed investigation and analysis involves greater expense, our clients participate in <br />determining levels of service which provide adequate information for their purposes at <br />acceptable levels of risk. Castello Estates has reviewed the scope of work and determined that it <br />does not need or want a greater level of service than what was provided. <br />Regulations and professional standards applicable to Kleinfelder's services are continually <br />evolving. Techniques are, by necessity, often new and relatively untried. Different professionals <br />may reasonably adopt different approaches to similar problems. Therefore, no warranty or <br />guarantee, expressed or implied, will be included in Kleinfelder's scope of service. <br />During the course of the performance of Kleinfelder's services, hazardous materials may be <br />discovered. Kleinfelder will assume no responsibility or liability whatsoever for any claim, loss <br />of property value, damage, or injury that results from pre-existing hazardous materials being <br />encountered or present on the project site, or from the discovery of such hazardous materials. <br />Nothing contained in this scope of work should be construed or interpreted as requiring <br />Kleinfelder to assume the status of an owner, operator, generator, or person who arranges for <br />disposal, transport, storage or treatment of hazardous materials within the meaning of any <br />governmental statute, regulation or order. <br />This document may be used only by the client (and regulatory agencies having enforcement <br />jurisdiction over the project site) and only for the purposes stated, within a reasonable time from <br />its issuance. Land use, site conditions (both on site and off site) or other factors may change over <br />time, and additional work may be required with the passage of time. Anyone other than the <br />client who wishes to use or rely on this document, shall complete the "Application for <br />Authorization to Use," which can be found as an appendix to this document. Based on the <br />intended use of the document, Kleinfelder may require that additional work be performed and <br />that an updated document be issued.
