Re: Scope of Work and Cost Estimate
Enviromnental Cleanup
Columbia Heights Industrial Park -Phase III
Dear Randy:
On behalf of ProSource Teclulologies, Inc. (ProSource), I'd like to again congratulate the
City of Columbia Heights (City) on your continued success in redeveloping the
Columbia I~ei~hts Industrial Par%. You ve accomplished a great deal of work over the
course of the last three years and the transformation during the last year has been a real
pleasure to watch_ We greatly appreciate the opportunity to work with you through tl7e
completion of Phases I and II and look forward to moving ahead with environmental
cleanup and redevelopment activities il~ Phase III. As per your request, we've prepared
this letter to slummarize the Scope of Work and Cost Estimate to implement cleanup
activities associated with Phase III.
Scope of Work
As you are aware, the Scope of Work has ah•eady been included in the Minnesota
Pollution Control Agency (MPCA) approved Phase II Investigation Report, Focused
Feasibility Study (FFS) and Response Action Plan (RAP) dated October 9, 2003.
Therefore, I would like to briefly summarize the work alld costs associated with the
forthcoming work.
hi short, services to be provided by ProSource will include:
• Continuing liaison with between. the City, MPCA, Schafer Richardson andlor
other applicable regulatory agencies.
• Conducting pre-demolition surveys.
• Preparing specifications and/or hid documents for Contractor services.
• Scheduling and coordination with Contractors.
• Coordination and oversight for implementation of soil and ground water
Response Actions.
• Installation of additional monitoring wells to further evaluate water quality of the
regional water table and make a determination as to the need for additional
ma~~itoring and/or remedial action.
• Reporting.
• Project Management.
Scope of Work and Cost Estimate
Columbia Hei~l~ts hldustrial Park -Phase III
Project Costs
2
The estimated cast to complete the enviroiullental cleanup associated with Phase III of this project is
$1,689,965. Of that, we estimate that $212,471 will go tluough ProSource as labor, equipment,
expenses or subcontractors (laboratory and drilling). A breakdown of project costs is included on the
attached table, which was taken from the Phase III Grant Application submitted to DEED and Met
Council on October 31, 2005. As you know, the City was successful in their Application, receiving a
total of $1,091,281 in funding between the DEED and Met Council Grant Awards.
As a significant portion of the project costs are associated with demolition and excavation. activities, we
are assuming that the City will be responsible for soliciting the bid package, as well as executing a
separate Agreement with the selected contractor (as with Phases I and II). However, ProSource will
prepare applicable portions of specifications and./or bid documents, provide scheduling, coordination and
oversight with the Contractor and review C~onti-actor invoices to verify quantities and costs prior to
submittal to the City. ProSource will again be responsible for procuring contractors to provide drilling
and analytical services.
Closing
As the winter months are rapidly approaching and redevelopment within Phase III is slated to beg111 with
the onset of thawing conditions in the spring of 2007, we realize the City would like to begin cleanup
activities as soon as possible. As such, we are prepared to initiate work immediately. To authorize the
work, please execute both copies of the attached Agreement in the space provided below and return one
copy for our records. If you have any questions or comments, please feel fi•ee to call me in our office at
(763) 786-1445 or on my cell phone at (763) 458-8174.
Sincerely,
ProSource Teclulologies, Inc.
