RE: Approve Professional Services Agreement with AECOM Technical Services,
Inc. (AECOM) for Environmental Support for 2022 Capital Improvement
Projects (CIP) ($120,000)
BACKGROUND
The Department of Public Works requested a proposal from AECOM for environmental support
for the 2022 calendar year. The services provided under this proposal include, but are not limited
to, Phase I and II Environmental Site Assessments, site investigations/characterizations and
cleanups, documentation of contaminated soil removal during construction activities, and offsite
treatment and disposal applications and approvals.
ANALYSIS
AECOM was chosen for this work due to their field office in Oshkosh, their knowledge of the
City, and vast experience with this type of work from our previous programs. The work
associated with this project requires an extremely short response time in order to
reduce/eliminate down time charges from contractors. When contamination is discovered in the
field, the Contractor cannot proceed with work until the Consultant is on site to test, document,
and ensure the materials are handled appropriately in accordance with all local, state, and federal
laws.
FISCAL IMPACT
Staff has reviewed the agreement and costs. The cost of these services is estimated not to exceed
$120,000, and will be charged to the Storm Water Utility, Water Utility, Sanitary Sewer Utility, or
the Street Paving CIP depending on the location of any contamination encountered. Funding is
available in all four (4) accounts (Account #03210410-68XX-XXXXX/Multiple Funds).

RECOMMENDATIONS
Chapter 12 of the Municipal Code of the City of Oshkosh (Code) provides that professional services
of a specialized nature, including engineering services, may be procured without the use of
formal, sealed quotes. I have reviewed this agreement and in accordance with Section 12-16 of
the Code, I am hereby recommending that the Common Council approve the award of this
professional services agreement.
