hn KLEINFELDER This proposal/workplan is based on the presumption that the client or owner will clearly mark utilities and will provide any and all available survey maps or other data to determine the location of existing structures, underground utilities and services. Danuell, Nelson, Schrimp, Pallios, Pacher & Silva 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, 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. Disruption of utilities or damage to underground structures will be the responsibility of the Damrell, Nelson, Schrimp, Pallios, Pacher & Silva. Services rendered by Kleinfelder to repair them will be billed at cost. Underground Service Alert (USA) at 1-800-642-2503 provides a partial location service free of charge for major utility lines. It is important that the Damrell, Nelson, Schrimp, Pallios, Pacher & Silva understand that subsurface buried under private property will not be marked by the public utility companies contacted by USA. The drilling company will make contact with USA for a site visit. Two copies of each report will be supplied to the client, additional copies will be provided on a time and expense basis. SCHEDULE Kleinfelder can schedule the proposed scope of work within approximately two weeks. The laboratory analysis will require 10 working days unless a more expedited laboratory turnaround is requested by the client at an additional charge. Our report will be completed within approximately ten working days of our receipt of the analytical data. It should be noted that Kleinfelder has no control over how long it takes for regulatory agencies to review this or subsequent work plans or ultimately the scheduling of subcontractors. LIMITATIONS Kleinfelder prepared this proposal/workplan 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 Damrell, Nelson, Schrimp, Pallios, Pacher & Silva wishes to reduce the uncertainties beyond the level associated with this proposal/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 02001PROP.ENV/ST04P347/KS:ss Page 6 of 8 Copyright 2004,Kleinfelder,Inc.
