OF PUBLIC WORKS OSHKOSH, WISCONSIN September 30, 2014 Mr. David Patek Director of Public Works City of Oshkosh 215 Church Avenue Oshkosh, Wisconsin 54901 Subject: Knapp Street Quarries, Methane Gas Monitoring, Sampling and Collection System Operation and Maintenance. Project Budget Request—August, 2014 through December 2015, Knapp Street, Oshkosh,Wisconsin AECOM Opportunity Number OPP-262532 Dear Mr. Patek, AECOM Technical Services, Inc. (AECOM) has prepared this budget request for continued methane monitoring, sampling, and collection system operation and maintenance at the Knapp Street Quarries. This request is based on site conditions and ongoing monitoring and operation and maintenance of the gas collection system installed in 2010. This proposal provides a summary of estimated costs for continued environmental monitoring and operation and maintenance(08�M) services for the gas collection system at the former Faber Quarry and former Oshkosh Stone Company Quarry(collectively known as the Knapp Street Quarries)located at 1601 Knapp Street, and 925 Florida Avenue, Oshkosh, Wisconsin. Also included in this proposal are costs associated with blower station modifications. AECOM has completed the approved scope of services presented in our methane monitoring proposal dated October 7, 2009, our gas system design proposal dated October 6, 2009, our construction documentation and system O&M proposal dated February 2, 2010, our methane gas monitoring and system O&M proposal dated April 20, 2011, and Amendment No. 1 dated June 6, 2012. The scope of services presented below is based on recommendations provided in our Operation Manual and in accordance with Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources Solid Waste (WDNR)requirements. The gas collection system was installed and started operation in 2010. AECOM personnel have continued monitoring the system and worked at balancing the gas recovery. The system has had a positive influence on reduction of the methane gas and thus reduced the risk of inethane gas migration off site. At this time there are no monitoring points showing methane concentration above 2.5% by volume. WDNR has conditionally approved a plan toward reduced operation of the landfill gas extraction system, if over a 4-month period there is effective gas recovery when cycling the blower operations (6-hours on and 4-hours off)and following the closure of sections of vent piping that have had no-detect readings for methane for a consecutive 12-month period. OPP-262532_Knapp Street Quarries Monitoring 2015.docx AECOM 2 Scope of Services Methane Gas Monitoring AECOM proposes to continue to conduct methane monitoring activities based on the schedule provided in the WDNR conditional approval letter dated April 15, 2014: Location Identification Parameters Fre uenc Gas Monitoring OW-3, GW-12, GW-20, Wells GW-20A, GW-22, GW-23, Oxygen, methane, GW-23A, GW-24, and carbon dioxide, GW-24A, GW-25, GW- balance gas, Monthly 25A, GW-2R, GW-2RA, 9roundwater level GW-13, GW-21, GW-21A monitoring, vacuum Oxygen, methane, GW-2, GW-9, GW-10, carbon dioxide, GW-11, GW-14, GW-17, balance gas, Quarterly and GW-19 groundwater level monitorin Gas Extraction Oxygen, methane, Wells WH-1 through WH-17 and carbon dioxide, W-1 through W-9 Semi-Annually balance as, vacuum Header Pipe at the glower(inflow) Vacuum before Monthly Blower Station blower Vent Pipe Oxygen, methane, Blower(discharge) carbon dioxide, Monthly pressure after blower, velocit /flow Condensate Condensate Sample Point Field pH, TBD If needed Sam le Point NOTES: 1. At the time of monitoring the gas wells, gas extraction wells, header pipe at the blower station, and the discharge vent pipe, site conditions will be monitored for the following parameters: ambient air temperature, barometric pressure, trends in barometric pressure, ground surface conditions, type of ineter used, and latest meter calibration date. 2. Monitoring has since been discontinued in the following gas monitoring wells: GW-1, GW-3, GW-4, GW-5, GW-6, GW-7, GW-8, GW-15, and GW-16 and the following observation wells, OW-1 and OW-2, which were abandoned. 3. WH-7 does not exist. At each gas monitoring well, and system sampling port the vacuum pressure, initial percent of the LEL of inethane(percent LEL methane), percent methane gas (percent methane), percent oxygen (percent 02), percent of carbon monoxide(percent CO2, air flow[CFM]), and groundwater levels will be measured. The LEL is the minimum concentration of a particular combustible gas or vapor necessary to support its combustion in air. The LEL of inethane gas is 5% methane by volume. Observations(such as ground condition, barometric pressure, and monitoring well conditions)will also be recorded. After initial readings are recorded, monitoring wells will be purged with a pump at a rate of 2 liters per minute. Continuous percent LEL methane is to be measured as the well is purged. A final K:IPROPOSAL\City of Oshkosh\OPP-262532_Knapp Street Quarries O&M\OPP-262532_Knapp Street Quarries Monitoring 2015.docx AECOM g reading will be recorded when consecutive methane readings are within±10% LEL. Final measurements include percent LEL methane, percent methane gas, percent CO2, and percent O2. The length of time required to achieve the final reading is typically unique to each well. Blower Station Modification AECOM will work with a subcontractor to install a new vent pipe on the blower station. Detail drawings have been prepared and AECOM is working to schedule a subcontractor to perform the repairs. In addition, there will be modifications to the grease tube operatian. Schedule and Reporting Methane sampling and system 08�M will be completed in accordance with the above schedule through December 2015. The monitoring data will be summarized and electronically submitted to the City on an annual basis. On an annual basis, the data will be submitted to the WDNR(including cover letter with discussion and conclusions). AECOM will immediately notify the City of any new methane wells that indicate an exceedance of the 25% LEL. Estimated Costs The estimated costs for completing the scope of service outlined in this proposal are summarized below: Task Fee Methane Monitoring and System Maintenance and Operation from August 2014 through December 2015 Includes H20 level meter, methane meter, CO2 and 02 meter rental costs $70,000 Annual Reporting and Project Management $13,000 Blower Station Modifications—Subcontractor Costs 5 000 TOTAL $98,000 Terms and Conditions In the performance of an environmental monitoring, it must be recognized that latent underground pollution of non-hazardous or hazardous nature may be discovered. The discovery may require the owner or tenant under federal and state regulation to undertake remedial measures. AECOM considers the responsibility of reporting of any results to appropriate state and/or federal agencies and subsequent clean-up measures to rest with the owner and/or tenant. AECOM will not report the results of our monitoring to parties other than those to which we have contracted, unless, in our opinion, there is an acutely dangerous public health condition or safety risk. Project information will not be released to other parties unless a written a request to do so is provided by you or your representative. It must be recognized that the completion of monitoring may identify potential problems and environmental conditions based on visual observations and the review of available data and does not guarantee that site environmental liabilities are non-existent. The services described in this proposal will be provided on a time-and-material basis. AECOM will not exceed the above estimate without your authorization and approval. The services provided will be performed in accordance with the conditions of the 2009 City of Oshkosh Negotiated General Conditions of Service(attached), which are expressly incorporated into, and are an integral part of, our contract for professional services, and the attached Commercial Terms.

Section 9: Construction Monitorina Services a. "Construction Monitoring Services"is d�ned as services,fumished by AECOM to the Client,which are perfortned for the purpose of evaluating and/or documenting general conformance of construction operations or completed work with Project specifications,plans, and/or spec�c reports of the Project. Such services may include taking of tests or collecting samples of natural or manmade materiais at various locations on a project site,and making visual observations related to earthwork,foundations,and/or materials. If the services to be provided by AECOM under this agreement include or are amended to include Construction Monitoring Services,the provisions of this Section 9 shall be an integral part of this agreement and applicable thereto. b. The presence of AECOM field personnel will be for the purpose of providing the client with a professional service based on observations and testing of the work which is performed by a contractor,subcontractor,or other materialmen or service provider. Such services will only be those specifically requested by the Client and agreed to by AECOM. Discrepancies between construction operations or completed work and project requirements which are noted by AECOM field personnel will be referred to the Client,or the ClienYs representative,as designated prior to AECOM's involvement in the project. c. It is understood and agreed by the Client that the observation and testing of natural and/or man-made materials by AECOM in no way implies a guarantee or warranty of the work of the contractor,subcontractor,or other materialmen or service providers,and the services rendered by AECOM will in no way excuse such contractor,subcontractor,or other materialmen or service providers from liability in the event of subsequently discovered defects,omissions,errors or other deficiencies in their work. The presence or absence of AECOM on the Project site will not affect any obligation of any contractor,subcontractor,or other materialmen or service providers to perform in accordance with the specifications and plans of the Project. The Client further understands that AECOM is not a quality assurance representative for any contractor,subcontractor,or other materialman or service provider on the Project. d. The Client agrees to supply AECOM with specifications,plans,and other necessary material for the Project pertinent to providing its services. e. Due to the nature of its services,observing and field testing the work of contractors,subcontractors,or materialmen or service providers on the Project,AECOM cannot always be responsible for the schedule or length of time its field personnel remain on the Project site. The time AECOM's field personnel spend on the Project site is dependent upon the schedule of the contractor,subcontractor or materialman,or service provider whose work they are observing and/or testing.
