(Signature ~authorized representative) (Print or type name of authorized representative and title) Ardaman &Associates, Inc. FOrm 210- Curtis 1000 - Rev, 9/87 Ardaman & Associates, Inc. March 11, 1988 File Number 88-010 Consultants in Soils, Hydrogeology, Foundations and Materials Testing Mr. W. A. Simmons, P.E. Director of Engineering and Planning City of Sanford Sanford, Florida 32772-1778 Subject: Proposal for Oregon Avenue Wellfield Development Program Dear Mr. Simmons: As requested, we submit this proposal for the subject project. The project involves design and construction of a new city wellfield on an approximately 12-acre site off Oregon Avenue in Section 32, T19S, R30E in north-central Seminole County. We propose the following tasks based on our understanding of the project. 1. Collect basic data 2. Prepare preliminary report 3. Prepare bid specifications for field testing program 4. Assist during bid process 5. Assist with SJRWMD permitting 6. Assist with Conditional Use Permit with County 7. Perform field testing program 8. Analyze field testing program data 9. Modify specifications for test/production well - if necessary 10. Supervise Test/Production Well Modifications - if necessary 11. Document yield of production well 12. Prepare well completion report The following paragraphs explain the scope of work for these tasks. Collect Basic Data In this task the basic data will be collected on existing wells in the area, known pesticicle applications in the area, and on available geology and groundwater literature. These data will include published and unpublished reports, soil surveys, and well logs of water wells drilled in the area. Information contained in our files for other projects near the site will also be reviewed. The Florida Department of Agriculture and the Department of Environmental Regulation will be contacted about historic pesticicle application in the area. Black and white photographs will be studied and a site visit will be conducted by a senior hydrogeologist to perform lineament analyses, to examine topography, land use, pollution source and surface water features in the area and to finalize locations of test holes and test wells. Local well drillers will be contacted to obtain construction data on wells in the area. 8008 S Orange Avenue, PO.

A. Simmon~,E. ~ File Number 88-010 -2- As part of this basic data collection task, a reconnaissance field survey is proposed to evaluate the pesticide residue in the area. Water from selected wells and Twin Lakes will be sampled and analyzed. Two or three temporary surficial aquifer monitor wells up to 30 feet deep will be drilled to sample the soil and water of the surficial aquifer. Two of these wells will be located onsite to be used to document the presence or absence of pestieides in the surfieial aquifer at the proposed wellfield site. In addition, if permission can be obtained from the land owners of known pesticide application(s), soil and water sample will be obtained for analysis of EDB. The onsite water in the shallow aquifer will be analyzed for compliance with primary and secondary drinking water standards if evaluation of conditions on and near the site indicate the possibility of pollution of the surficial aquifer. Prepare Preliminary Report A preliminary report will be prepared containing data collected during the basic data phase, analysis of the data and recommendations for the field testing program. The preliminary report will also discuss preliminary recommendations for wellfield design. The report will be discussed in detail with the City prior to finalizing the field testing program. Prepare Bid Specifications for Field Testing Program The bid specifications for the test/production well and the production pump will be prepared in accordance with the City of Sanford bid process procedures. Informal discussions will be held with 2 or 3 well drillers who construct large diameter wells as an aid in preparing the specification for the field testing program. The bid specifications will involve the test production well, the production well, the performance testing, the disinfection and water quality testing for the production well and the pump for the production well It is our understanding that the Phase i wellfield will consist of one well with a capacity at least 1000 gpm. Assist During Bid Process A prebid meeting with the prospective bidders may be desirable. Conversations will occur with the bidders and with the City staff during this bid process. An evaluation of the bids will be performed. We will also attend the pre-construetion meeting with the selected contractor. Assist with SJRWMD Permitting In this task two types of permitting will be involved: (1) a construction permit and a temporary consumptive use permit for the well and pumping during the field testing program and (2) the modifications to the existing consumptive use permit (CUP) for the City. The CUP modification will not involve an increased water use for the City. We envision the second permitting effort to be only a letter explaining the modification to SJRWMD. Mr. W. A. Simmons~"~.E. ~*~ File Number 88-010 -3- Assist with Conditional Use Permit with County We anticipate that one of our staff members will attend the County meeting having prepared up to two or three exhibits. Consultations will be held with the City to develop the presentation eontent. The precise scope of work for this task is not certain. More than one public meeting would be beyond the scope of this proposal. It is our understanding that the work effort will occur during the bid . process period. Perform Field Testing Program In this task the mutually agreed field testing program at the wellfield site would be implemented. We envision the following activities for this program. A large diameter casing (20-inch) will be grouted into the top of the Floridan aquifer at a depth of approximately 100 to 150 feet. Approximately 30 to 40 feet of 26-inch pit casing may be necessary to allow the 20-inch casing to be emplaeed in the aquifer. Both casings will be pressure grouted from the bottom up to land surface. A 10-inch open hole will be drilled into the Floridan-aquifer to ascertain the quality of the water and the aquifer eharaeteristies~ especially the high yielding water zones. Water samples will be collected for ehemieal analysis at intervals during drilling using a submersible pump or other method that does not introduee air into the sample. Samples will be collected at relatively close intervals at the top of the aquifer and at progressively greater intervals at deeper depths. Drilling will be terminated when it is determined that sufficient water is available in the well to satisfy the demands of a production well or at a depth of not more than 600 to 700 feet to eliminate the possibility of encountering salty water. The well will then be test pumped to determine water quality, yield and aquifer characteristics. Analyze Field Testing Program Data At this time all data obtained during the basic data and field testing programs will be analyzed and consultations will be held with City of Sanford personnel. If it is mutually agreed that there is no contamination in the water at the test/production well and little or no likelihood of contamination in the future, then the test/production well would be considered a production well without modifieation. If it is deemed advisable to modify the test/production well, we would then proceed with the next two tasks. If no modification is deemed neeessary~ we will proceed to document the yield of the production well with the installed pump. Modify Specifications for Test/Produetion Well - If Necessary In this task the .eontraet with the well drilling firm for the production well and pump would be modified as agreed upon during eonsultation between Ardaman & Associates, Inc. and the City of Sanford. Mr. W. A. Simmons~'~.E. ~'~ File Number 88-010 -4- Supervise Test/Production Well Modifications - If Necessary In this task we anticipate a senior technician to be on the job site with the contractor to be sure the well is modified in accordance with the specifications. Document Yield of Production Well In this task we propose to supervise the performance testing of the production well. Ardaman & Associates, Inc. will furnish a senior technician and the instrumentation truck to supervise a 8- to 12-hour pump test. Drawdown in the production well will be documented. The well drilling contractor will furnish the pump, the flow measuring device and sufficient piping to discharge water to Twin Lakes. Water samples will be taken from the production well by the contractor for the analysis of the drinking water parameters as required by the Florida Department of Environmental Regulation (FDER). The contractor will install the pump, disinfect the well, collect the required water samples and have them analyzed and secure the well. Prepare Well Completion Report In this task a report will be prepared to document as-built conditions of the well, summarize performance test data, interpret aquifer characteristics, recommend pump settings and project maximum drawdown levels for different pumping rates. The City will need to provide elevations to the top of the well head. Fees The estimated costs for this proposal is summarized in Table 1. The monthly invoices will be based on time expended, materials/equipment used and lineal feet performed in accordance with the 1988 fee schedule. Subcontractor costs included in this proposal are $2,500 to $3,500 for chemical analyses during the basic data collection and field testing programs. The well drilling contractor costs for the test/production well program are not included in this proposal. The estimated costs of $4,000 to $5,500, if needed, to modify the test/production well are not a part of this program. The maximum total costs not to be exceeded without further written authorization is $27,900. The work can begin within two weeks of notice to proceed. If the proposal meets with your approval, please have the appropriate person sign one of the enclosed proposal acceptance forms and return one for our records.
