District Engineer Richmond Sanitary District 2380 Liberty Avenue Richmond, Indiana 47374 Dear Elijah: Pursuant to your letter dated November 28, 2017, provided herein is a proposal for On - Call Professional Services for the New Paris Pike Landfill. A separate Scope -of -Work and Opinion of Probable Cost has been provided for the years 2018, 2019 and 2020. The scope and format is similar to that presented in previous proposals. There are three tasks over the next three years that require additional efforts beyond what is considered typical. The subject tasks are identified in the applicable Scope -of Work. These tasks are: 1. Title V Permit Renewal Application (2018), 2. Title V triennial emissions reports (2020), and 3. The triennial groundwater assessment sampling and report (2020). Also attached to this letter are a current Certificate of Insurance, the Affidavit of Employment Eligibility Verification, and a Standard Schedule of Charges for Professional Services (2017). We are obtaining an eligibility verification form from Pace Analytical, whom we anticipate using for the analytical work in 2018. The contract number listed on the Certificate of Insurance will be updated once a new contract is approved. An updated Certificate of Insurance and Standard Schedule of Charges for Professional Services will be provided to the City of Richmond for each year the City opts to renew the contract. 7486 Shadeland Station Way, Indianapolis, IN 46256-3925 s PH 317.595.6492 s www.andrews-eng.com Corporate Office 3300 Ginger Creek Drive, Springfield, Illinois 62711 s 217.787.2334 EXHIBIT 'B' - Page 1 of 21 Mr. Elijah Welch Richmond Sanitary District December 8, 2017 Page 2 We look forward to continuing our work with the Richmond Sanitary District.

There is one task for 2018 that requires additional effort beyond what is considered typical. That task is the Title V permit renewal application due to IDEM by July 8, 2018 and is addressed in Section D below. Unit charges for services described in this proposal will be based on Andrews Engineering, Inc.'s (AEI's) "Standard Schedule of Charges for Professional Services". The Richmond Sanitary District (RSD) shall be invoiced on a time -and -materials basis according to the "Standard Schedule of Charges", but not to exceed the estimated total amount without RSD authorization. A. Groundwater Sampling, Analyses, and Reporting 1. Semi -Annual Sampling: The scope for this task includes preparation for sampling events, field sampling, sample delivery and confirmation, data management, statistical analysis, and reporting. Pace Analytical will be used for the laboratory analyses. The total estimated cost for routine semi-annual sampling is approximately $31,150 for both semi-annual sampling events. Invoices for the semi-annual sampling are concentrated in March, April, May, and again in September, October, and November corresponding to the two semi-annual sampling events. The estimated cost does not include verification sampling, which is discussed below. 2. Verification Sampling: This task will occur when a Statistically Significant Increase (SSI) is determined from a semi-annual sampling event, but the SSI has not been verified. If, however, no advantage is to be gained by attempting to nullify the SSI, a verification sampling event may not be appropriate. For example, if a well is already in assessment with verified exceedances and the new SSI is not above the groundwater protection standard (GWPS), then a verification sampling event would generally not be conducted. A contingency of $3,000 is a reasonable estimate to add to the groundwater sampling cost to cover potential verification re -sampling and reporting. Verification sampling has not been necessary in recent years. The total groundwater sampling budget, including the $3,000 contingency for verification re - sampling and reporting, is $34,160. EXHIBIT'B' - Page 4 of 21 B. Stormwater Samplin_g AEI assumes that stormwater sampling will be conducted during the same events as groundwater sampling: in March and September and for two stormwater ponds. This will reduce preparation time and related travel costs. Stormwater samples will be obtained per the approved Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan and submitted for analysis of the appropriate parameters. A report of the results will be submitted in draft to RSD and finally to Indiana Department of Environmental Management (IDEM) as required. Laboratory analytical work will be sub -contracted to Pace Analytical. The cost estimate to conduct the stormwater sampling and reporting including analytical cost is $2,100. C. Corrective Action This task item includes evaluating the current remedial measures taking place at the landfill as part of the corrective action plan and determining whether additions or changes are necessary. Additions or changes may either be required, due to newly discovered groundwater issues, or desirable to make the system more effective from the standpoint of environmental protection, or simply more cost-effective. This can generally be done through an annual corrective action plan update report which is typically included in the September Semi -Annual Groundwater Sampling Report. The cost for submitting an annual corrective action update report is approximately $1,200. A reasonable contingency for miscellaneous work related to corrective action items that are unforeseen is $3,000. Therefore, the approximate cost estimate for Corrective Action items for budgeting purposes is $4,200. D. Air Compliance Air quality compliance requirements at the landfill have increased in recent years with the advent of the federal greenhouse gas reporting regulations and with the reversion of the landfill gas collection and control system operation to the District from Richmond Power & Light. While most reporting occurs on a quarterly or annual basis, some of the compliance requirements under the site's Title V air operating permit have longer recurrence intervals. The following is a list of anticipated compliance activities under this category: • Weekly gas flow readings (greenhouse gas (GHG) regulations) • Quarterly surface methane monitoring (Title V) • Quarterly deviation reports (Title V) • Semi-annual NSPS/NESHAP report (Title V) • Annual compliance report (Title V) • Annual greenhouse gas report (GHG regulations) • Title V Permit Renewal Application • Miscellaneous compliance assistance 1. Gas Readings: The facility maintains a continuous monitoring system that records the gas flowrate, temperature, and pressure. This data is sent to AEI for review and compilation in preparation for the semi-annual reports and annual GHG report (see Subtasks 4 and 6 below). Costs for data compilation and evaluation are contained within Subtasks 4 and 6. 2. Surface Methane Monitoring: Methane emissions will be monitored over the surface of the landfill on a quarterly basis. If methane concentrations over any part of the landfill exceed 500 ppm during this initial monitoring, a minimum of two re -monitoring events must be performed at 10 days and 1 month after the initial exceedance to verify the effectiveness of corrective action work. Our estimated budget for the four routine (quarterly) monitoring events and reports is $4,400. Should an additional site visit be required because of EXHIBIT'B' - Page 5 of 21 exceedances noted in the routine monitoring, our budget for each additional monitoring event and report is $1,100. For budgeting purposes, we recommend an annual budget of $5,500. 3. Quarterly Deviation Reports: AEI will populate the forms, provide the facility with a draft report, finalize, and submit to IDEM. Our estimated budget for the four routine (quarterly) reports is $1,400. 4. Semi -Annual Reports: The federal NSPS and NESHAP regulations for landfills require submittal of semi-annual reports on the effectiveness of the gas collection and control system. These reports are due in January and July of each year covering the preceding 6 months of operation. The reports require evaluation of the data recorded by the continuous monitoring system, which is substantial, and determination of outages. Our estimated budget for this service is $2,500. 5. Annual Compliance Report: An annual report must be filed with IDEM and the USEPA by July 1 of each year that summarizes the landfill's compliance with the terms of its Title V permit for the preceding year. Our estimated budget for this work is $900. 6. Annual GHG Report: This report is required under the federal GHG regulations. Our budget of is $2,500 for preparing the report. 7. Title V Permit Renewal Application: The current permit expires on January 8, 2019. A timely renewal application must be submitted by July 8, 2018. Andrews will prepare the application for review by the District before submittal to IDEM. Our estimated budget for this work in 2018 is $3,000. 8. Miscellaneous Compliance Assistance: This task includes general assistance on air compliance and permitting issues not covered by the other tasks above. Typical services include review and consultation on new air regulations, assistance with IDEM inspection information requests, and assistance with gas system equipment or usage. Our estimated budget for this work is $1,600. E. Drawina CAD Update Due to various permitting and activities at the facility during the last several years, multiple variations of drawings exist. AEI will update drawings, if authorized, such that current conditions and permitted designs are represented in one set of drawings. Our estimated budget for this work is $3,500. The estimate does not include any site visits that may be necessary for confirmation of existing conditions. F. Summary of Costs In summary, the proposed budgets for Professional Engineering Services are as follows: A. Groundwater Sampling Items $34,150 B. Storm Water Sampling $2,100 C. Corrective Action $4,200 D. Air Compliance $17,300 E. Drawing/CAD Update $3,500 Project work is invoiced based on time and materials.

Our estimated budget for the four routine (quarterly) monitoring events and reports is $4,400. Should an additional site visit be required because of exceedances noted in the routine monitoring, our budget for each additional monitoring event and report is $1,100. For budgeting purposes, we recommend an annual budget of $5,500. 3. Quarterly Deviation Reports: AEI will populate the forms, provide the facility with a draft report, finalize, and submit to IDEM. Our estimated budget for the four routine (quarterly) reports is $1,400. EXHIBIT'B' - Page 9 of 21 4. Semi -Annual Reports: The federal NSPS and NESHAP regulations for landfills require submittal of semi-annual reports on the effectiveness of the gas collection and control system. These reports are due in January and July of each year covering the preceding 6 months of operation. The reports require evaluation of the data recorded by the continuous monitoring system, which is substantial, and determination of outages. Our estimated budget for this service is $2,500. 5. Annual Compliance Report: An annual report must be filed with IDEM and the USEPA by July 1 of each year that summarizes the landfill's compliance with the terms of its Title V permit for the preceding year. Our estimated budget for this work is $900. 6. Annual GHG Report: This report is required under the federal GHG regulations. Our budget of is $2,500 for preparing the report. 7. Miscellaneous Compliance Assistance: This task includes general assistance on air compliance and permitting issues not covered by the other tasks above. Typical services include review and consultation on new air regulations, assistance with IDEM inspection information requests, and assistance with gas system equipment or usage. Our estimated budget for this work is $1,500. E. Drawincg/CAD Update Due to various permitting and activities at the facility during the last several years, multiple variations of drawings exist. It is assumed that the drawings were updated in 2018. However, if that did not occur, AEI will update drawings, if requested, such that current conditions and permitted designs are represented in one set of drawings. Our estimated budget for this work is $3,500. The estimate does not include any site visits that may be necessary for confirmation of existing conditions. F. Summary of Costs In summary, the proposed budgets for Professional Engineering Services are as follows: A. Groundwater Sampling Items $34,150 B. Storm Water Sampling $2,100 C. Corrective Action $4,200 D. Air Compliance $14,300 E. Drawing/CAD Update $3,500 Project work is invoiced based on time and materials. EXHIBIT'B' - Page 10 of 21 Scope -of -Work and Opinion of Probable Cost — 2020 EXHIBIT'B' - Page 11 of 21 New Paris Pike Landfill Richmond Sanitary District Scope -of -Work and Opinion of Probable Cost for Professional Engineering Services for 2020 Professional Engineering Services The Professional Engineering Services include groundwater sampling and analyses, stormwater sampling and analyses, corrective action planning, Title V and greenhouse gas compliance and reporting for each task, as necessary. There are two tasks that require additional efforts beyond what is considered typical. These tasks are: 1. The triennial emissions reports, and 2. The triennial groundwater assessment sampling and report. Unit charges for services described in this proposal will be based on Andrews Engineering, Inc.'s (AEI's) "Standard Schedule of Charges for Professional Services". The Richmond Sanitary District (RSD) shall be invoiced on a time -and -materials basis according to the "Standard Schedule of Charges", but not to exceed the estimated total amount without RSD authorization. A. Groundwater Sampling, Analyses, and Reporting 1. Semi -Annual Sampling: The scope for this task includes preparation for sampling events, field sampling, sample delivery and confirmation, data management, statistical analysis, and reporting. Pace Analytical will be used for the laboratory analyses. The total estimated cost for routine semi-annual sampling is approximately $33,150 for both semi-annual sampling events. Invoices for the semi-annual sampling are concentrated in March, April, May, and again in September, October, and November corresponding to the two semi-annual sampling events. The estimated cost does not include verification sampling, which is discussed below. The cost includes additional laboratory analysis for an expanded assessment list of chemical parameters for the second sampling event in 2020 (required every 3 years). The last expanded assessment monitoring occurred in September of 2017. Lab fees may fluctuate from year to year, which may require an adjustment of the cost estimate, but is not expected to be substantial. 2. Verification Sampling: This task will occur when a Statistically Significant Increase (SSI) is determined from a semi-annual sampling event, but the SSI has not been verified. If, however, no advantage is to be gained by attempting to nullify the SSI, a verification sampling event may not be appropriate. For example, if a well is already in assessment with verified exceedances and the new SSI is not above the groundwater protection standard (GWPS), then a verification sampling event would generally not be conducted. A contingency of $3,000 is a reasonable estimate to add to the groundwater sampling cost to cover potential verification re -sampling and reporting. Verification sampling has not been necessary in recent years. EXHIBIT 'B' - Page 12 of 21 The total groundwater sampling budget, including the $3,000 contingency for verification re - sampling and reporting, is $36,160. B. Stormwater Sampling AEI assumes that stormwater sampling will be conducted during the same events as groundwater sampling: in March and September and for two stormwater ponds. This will reduce preparation time and related travel costs. Stormwater samples will be obtained per the approved Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan and submitted for analysis of the appropriate parameters. A report of the results will be submitted in draft to RSD and finally to Indiana Department of Environmental Management (IDEM) as required. Laboratory analytical work will be sub -contracted to Pace Analytical. The cost estimate to conduct the stormwater sampling and reporting including analytical cost is $2,100. C. Corrective Action This task item includes evaluating the current remedial measures taking place at the landfill as part of the corrective action plan and determining whether additions or changes are necessary. Additions or changes may either be required, due to newly discovered groundwater issues, or desirable to make the system more effective from the standpoint of environmental protection, or simply more cost-effective. This can generally be done through an annual corrective action plan update report which is typically included in the September Semi -Annual Groundwater Sampling Report. The cost for submitting an annual corrective action update report is approximately $1,200. A reasonable contingency for miscellaneous work related to corrective action items that are unforeseen is $3,000. Therefore, the approximate cost estimate for Corrective Action items for budgeting purposes is $4,200. D. Air Compliance Air quality compliance requirements at the landfill have increased in recent years with the advent of the federal greenhouse gas reporting regulations and with the reversion of the landfill gas collection and control system operation to the District from Richmond Power & Light. While most reporting occurs on a quarterly or annual basis, some of the compliance requirements under the site's Title V air operating permit have longer recurrence intervals. The following is a list of anticipated compliance activities under this category: • Weekly gas flow readings (greenhouse gas (GHG) regulations), • Quarterly surface methane monitoring (Title V), • Quarterly deviation reports (Title V), • Semi-annual NSPS/NESHAP reports (Title V), • Annual compliance report (Title V), • Annual greenhouse gas report (GHG regulations), • Triennial emissions report, and • Miscellaneous compliance assistance. 1. Gas Readings: The facility maintains a continuous monitoring system that records the gas flowrate, temperature, and pressure. This data is sent to AEI for review and compilation in preparation for the semi-annual reports and annual GHG report (see Subtasks 4 and 6 below). Costs for data compilation and evaluation are contained within Subtasks 4 and 6. 2. Surface Methane Monitoring: Methane emissions will be monitored over the surface of the landfill on a quarterly basis. If methane concentrations over any part of the landfill exceed 500 ppm during this initial monitoring, a minimum of two re -monitoring events must be performed at 10 days and 1 month after the initial exceedance to verify the effectiveness EXHIBIT 'B' - Page 13 of 21 of corrective action work. Our estimated budget for the four routine (quarterly) monitoring events and reports is $4,400. Should an additional site visit be required because of exceedances noted in the routine monitoring, our budget for each additional monitoring event and report is $1,100. For budgeting purposes, we recommend an annual budget of $5,600. 3. Quarterly Deviation Reports: AEI will populate the forms, provide the facility with a draft report, finalize, and submit to IDEM. Our estimated budget for the four routine (quarterly) reports is $1,400. 4. Semi -Annual Reports: The federal NSPS and NESHAP regulations for landfills require submittal of semi-annual reports on the effectiveness of the gas collection and control system. These reports are due in January and July of each year covering the preceding 6 months of operation. The reports require evaluation of the data recorded by the continuous monitoring system, which is substantial, and determination of outages. Our estimated budget for this service is $2,500. 5. Annual Compliance Report: An annual report must be filed with IDEM and the USEPA by July 1 of each year that summarizes the landfill's compliance with the terms of its Title V permit for the preceding year. Our estimated budget for this work is $900. 6. Annual GHG Report: This report is required under the federal GHG regulations. Our budget of is $2,500 for preparing the report. 7. Triennial Emissions Report: Every 3 years, the landfill must calculate and report air emissions from the site using software provided by IDEM. This information is used to set the annual Title V permit fees. The next report is due July 1, 2020. AEI will perform the calculations and prepare the report for review by the District before submittal to IDEM. Our estimated budget for this work is $2,600. 8. Miscellaneous Compliance Assistance: This task includes general assistance on air compliance and permitting issues not covered by the other tasks above. Typical services include review and consultation on new air regulations, assistance with IDEM inspection information requests, and assistance with gas system equipment or usage. Our estimated budget for this work is $1,600. E. Drawing/CAD Update Due to various permitting and activities at the facility during the last several years, multiple variations of drawings exist. It is assumed that the drawings were updated in 2018 or 2019. However, if that did not occur, AEI will update drawings, as requested, such that current conditions and permitted designs are represented in one set of drawings. Our estimated budget for this work is $3,500. The estimate does not include any site visits that may be necessary for confirmation of existing conditions. F. Summary of Costs In summary, the proposed budgets for Professional Engineering Services are as follows: A. Groundwater Sampling Items $36,150 B. Storm Water Sampling $2,100 C. Corrective Action $4,200 D. Air Compliance $16,800 E. Drawing/CAD Update $3,500 Project work is invoiced based on time and materials.
