We have recently achieved many milestones, including completion of the final Cleanup Action Plan, award of an Ecology remedial action grant, completion of park plans and specs, and an accurate cost estimate. Future work is solely related to the actual cleanup of the park; however, our current budget ceiling of $101,000 has been reached. Therefore, I am requesting that you approve this additional addendum so the four tasks below can be performed. This proposal, if accepted, would amend our contract by authorizing costs for three tasks related to park construction. The fourth task is a discretionary one related to grant funding. The first three tasks were originally described in the first contract addendum (letter to you dated May 8, 2001). The estimated amounts for each task remain the same except for Task 2, which has increased by $2,000 to cover the extra cost of sampling and cleanup oversight in Areas 2 and 4 that now will be excavated instead of covered. Please remember that the first three tasks are eligible for 75 percent reimbursement from the recently awarded Ecology grant as they are directly related to the cleanup of Kissel Park. 1. Develop a Maintenance Plan. The required Maintenance Plan describes how the City of Yakima (City) will handle contaminated soil when performing utility or other subsurface work following completion of the park, as well as including procedures for inspecting and maintaining the soil cover, turf, and paved areas. Estimated Cost: $2,400. 2. Construction Support and Confirmation Sampling. During construction, we will be available, as necessary, to provide support to the contractor and field inspector to ensure that the cleanup action is implemented as designed. We must also collect 12 to 16 confirmation samples from excavated or deep tilled areas to document that these areas are permanently cleaned up. Estimated Cost: 88,800. 3. Final Documentation. The final documentation will be a brief summary report of approximately 15 pages to document that the cleanup of Kissel Park was accomplished in accordance with the Cleanup Action Plan. The summary report will consist of several pages of text followed by copies of field logs, site photographs, and soil sample analytical results. Estimated Cost: $2,050.

Provide support for the City, via written correspondence or other communication, to lobby for Kissel Park to receive supplemental Ecology grant funding. Also provide other assistance as deemed necessary by the city. Estimated Cost: $1,800. REASONS FOR EXTRA COSTS TO COMPLETE EXISTING TASKS The scope of the original 2000 contract and the May 8 addendum contain a series of tasks, with a cost estimate for each task. The assumptions used to estimate the cost for each task were preliminary and, therefore, did not accurately account for the actual effort required to complete the tasks. The beyond -scope tasks are described below. RUFS and Cleanup Action Plan. The number of samples collected for the RI was greater than originally estimated. Ecology requested changes to the Cleanup Action Plan document after it was issued final, so the document was revised and reissued. The amount of funding provided by Ecology for the tilling pilot test was insufficient to cover the analysis of the data and the analysis of the Pilot test data required considerable more effort then estimated. Cost Estimate Review and Assistance. We provided substantial assistance to KDF's cost estimator, Roen Associates, in order to develop construction cost estimates. Cost estimating was not a scoped task and involved considerable effort. Grant Application. This task required substantially more effort than was budgeted due to the unforeseen complexity of the grant application, which involved a number of conference calls to develop strategy, prepare and review the grant application by Preston Gates, coordinate the costs in the grant application with the cost estimate, prepare cover letters, revise the grant application at the request of Ecology, track grant application progress, and develop a spending schedule and acceptance letter. Assisting KDF with Cleanup Plans and Specs. Substantially more effort was spent reviewing and revising the plans and specs prepared by KDF. We participated in a number of unplanned conference calls and prepared detailed comments to the plans and specs to reflect the approved cleanup action and facilitate easy implementation by the contractor. ADJUSTMENT OF CONTRACT CEILING Floyd Snider McCarthy, Inc. will be responsible for the above task items at an estimated time and material cost of $15,050 according to the rate table agreed upon in our existing contract. This will augment our existing contract maximum of $101,000 to $116,050. Please note that the cost estimates for each of the above scope items are based upon professional judgment and experience with projects of similar complexity and scope. Even so, please note that these are estimates only and subject to change due to unexpected site conditions, extent of regulatory involvement, and other variables typical of environmental projects.
