Attention: Mr. Paul Moore, P.E.

Subject: Proposal for Field Observations and Laboratory Testing Associated with
Maintenance of Stormwater Management Ponds at the Sanford South Water
Resources Center
Gentlemen /Ladies:
As requested by Mr. Paul Moore, P.E., of the City of Sanford, Ardaman & Associates, Inc.
(Ardaman) is pleased to submit this proposal to provide field observations and laboratory testing
service associated with maintenance of a number of stormwater management ponds at the
Sanford South Water Resources Center (WRC) in the City of Sanford, Florida. The WRC is
located at 3540 Cameron Avenue, Sanford, Florida. According to Mr. Moore, there are 5 or 6
ponds at the WRC that require maintenance. The ponds are currently dry. The maintenance
activities will include disking and /or removal of fine sediments and organic matter that have
accumulated at the pond bottoms, followed by placement of clean fill to achieve the design pond
bottom elevations established by CPH Engineers.
Ardaman previously obtained a total of four samples from 12 to 14 soil stockpiles at the WRC
for laboratory testing to evaluate the suitability of the stockpiled materials for use as borrow fill
during pond maintenance. Results of the laboratory testing were documented in an Ardaman
report titled "Soil Sample Results of Laboratory Testing of Soil Samples from Stockpiles at 3540
Cameron Avenue in City of Sanford, Seminole County, Florida," dated December 8, 2010. As
documented in that report, the tested soil samples visually classified as a brown, poorly - graded
sand with silt, with fines contents ranging from 7.9 to 10.8 percent and organic contents ranging
from 1.2 to 1.9 percent. The Stormwater System Maintenance Plan for the WRC requires fill
materials for pond maintenance to have a fines content of no greater than 12 percent and an
organic content of no greater than 2 percent. Accordingly, the tested soil samples from the on-
site stockpiles met both the fines content and organic content requirements.

Ardaman proposes the following scope of work associated with maintenance of the stormwater
management ponds:
• Review permit requirements as well as existing and design elevations associated with the
proposed pond maintenance.
• Perform hand probes to estimate the thicknesses of accumulated fine sediments and
organic matter at the pond bottoms.
• Attend one meeting at the WRC with the City of Sanford, CPH Engineers, and the contractor
prior to performance of any pond maintenance activities.
• Provide a full time senior field technician to observe excavation of fine sediments and
organic matter as well as placement of clean fill at the pond bottoms and, if needed, to
obtain soil samples for laboratory testing.
• Perform laboratory tests, as necessary, on soil samples from the pond bottoms and the
stockpiles.
• Prepare a letter report to document our field observations and any laboratory test results.
Ardaman assumes that any permit requirements and pond bottom elevation data will be
provided to us for review by the City of Sanford or CPH Engineers at least one week prior to
performance of any pond maintenance activities. Ardaman will provide a senior field technician
for one day to probe the pond bottoms to estimate the thicknesses of accumulated fine
sediments and organic matter that should be removed. This work should be completed at least
two weeks before the pond maintenance work begins. One of our engineers will attend a
meeting at the project site with representatives of the City of Sanford, CPH Engineers, and the
contractor to review the permit requirements, to present the results of our hand probing, and to
discuss the project schedule. During pond maintenance, Ardaman will provide a senior field
technician to observe excavation of the accumulated fine sediments, placement of the clean fill
and, if needed, to obtain soil samples for laboratory testing. Upon completion of the work,
Ardaman will prepare a report to document our field observations and any laboratory testing
data associated with the work.
Ardaman will invoice our services monthly on a time and material basis in accordance with the
unit rates published in our 2009 fee schedule', a copy of which is attached herein for your
reference. Assuming that the pond maintenance work can be completed in 1 week, Ardaman
requests a budget of $15,000 for our services. The requested budget includes a contingent fee
of $1,500 for any laboratory testing work that may be required. Depending on the project
schedule and duration, the actual expenditure could be more or less, but will not exceed the
requested budget without justification and your prior approval.
This project will be coordinated and managed by Mr. Patrick A. Kennedy, P.E., of our Orlando
office. Ardaman normally requires at least a 2 -day advance notification to make sure a field
technician is available for the assignment. If the pond maintenance activities are not performed
continually without interruption, Ardaman cannot guarantee that the same field technician will be
' Ardaman has not increased our billing rates since January 2009. Therefore, our 2009 fee schedule currently
remains active.

available for the entire duration of the project. We assume that all surveying works associated
with the pond maintenance activities will be performed by CPH Engineers.
Ardaman appreciates the opportunity of submitting this proposal for your consideration. If this
proposal is acceptable to you, please have an authorized person sign both copies of the
attached Proposal Acceptance Form and return one copy for our record.
If an ou have questions conceming this proposal, please let us know.
