Bolton & Menk, Inc. Proposal QTB175606 April 4, 2023 Page 2 Scope of Services Task 1— Phase I Environmental Site Assessment (ESA) We will conduct a Phase I ESA of the Site in accordance with ASTM International (ASTM) Practice E1527-21 and 40 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) Part 312, which is the recognized industry standard defining good commercial and customary practice for conducting all appropriate inquiry (AAI) into the previous ownership and uses of the Site consistent with the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act (CERCLA). The intent of this practice is intended to permit a user to satisfy one of the requirements to qualify for the innocent landowner, contiguous property owner, or bona fide prospective purchaser limitations on CERCLA liability. The purpose of the Phase I ESA will be to identify recognized environmental conditions in connection with the subject property. The Phase I ESA will include a government and historical records review, site reconnaissance, interviews, and data evaluation. The results of the Phase I ESA will be summarized in a written report. So that they may be identified within the report, the user must supply the names of all parties intending to rely on the executed service and subsequent report. Additional reliance may be obtained at the discretion of Braun Intertec. In order to satisfy the requirements of AAI, the user bears specific responsibilities for satisfying certain components of the environmental inquiry. ASTM E1527-21 Practice provides a User Questionnaire which outlines the information that the user must provide (if available) to the Environmental Professional. The User Questionnaire, attached to this proposal, should be completed and returned to us so that the information can be included in the report. In addition, the Client Information Request Form is attached to this proposal and should be completed and returned to us so that the information can be included in the report. The results of the Phase I ESA will be summarized in a written report documenting information sources used, findings and conclusions, and our professional opinion of the impact of any potential environmental concerns in connection with the Site. Appendices to the report will include copies of available historical information (e.g., fire insurance maps, aerial photographs, etc.). A draft copy of the Phase I ESA will be issued electronically for review and comment. Upon receipt of comments, we will issue the final Phase I ESA report. Only an electronic copy of the Phase I ESA report will be submitted to you unless you request otherwise. Task 2 — Geotechnical Evaluation We propose the following tasks to help achieve the stated purpose. If we encounter unfavorable or unforeseen conditions during the completion of our tasks that lead us to recommend an expanded scope of services, we will contact you to discuss the conditions before resuming our services.
