TAYLOR, PE, PP, CME BEHRAM TURAN, PE, LSRP April 13, 2015 Re: Proposal — Consulting Services - NJDEP Permits - Construction Dewatering Noe Street Drainage Improvements Project Borough of Carteret, New Jersey Dear Mayor Reiman: CM Associates is pleased to submit for your consideration this Proposal for en gineering 'consulting services to obtain NJDEP permits associated with construction dewatering at the Noe Street Drainage Improvements project,located in the Borough of Carteret, New Jersey (Site). The project background, proposed scope of work, related schedule, and estimated costs to complete the work are discussed below. BACKGROUND The Site is located at the southern end of a85 -acre tract, in the northeastern part of a 685 -acre drainage area,within the Borough of Carteret(Borough), The Site is located within a tidal flood hazard area, 100 -year flood hazard zone, and is prone to nuisance flooding after even moderate rainfall events in the neighborhood. The increase in flood eventsis reportedly due to the Site's low elevation, climate - related sea level rise and inadequate infrastructure, The area in the vicinity of the Site is currently serviced with three 78" pipes and a tide gate.The Borough is currently designing the drainage improvements and is planning to bid related construction work in 2015 and complete part of the construction in the vicinity of the Site in 2016/2017. CME understands that the drainage improvements in the vicinity of the Site include the construction of a new detention basin, improvements to the collection system, install /improve the pump station and a construct a larger main outfall. These construction activities require dewatering. CONSULTING AND MUNICIPAL ENGINEERS 3769 HWY 1 SOUTH • SUITE 100 • MONMOUTH JUNCTION, NEW JERSEY 08852 • (732) 951 -2101 ASSOCIATES Mayor Daniel Reiman April 13, 2015 Borough of Carteret Page 2 Re: Proposal — Consulting Services - NJDEP Permits Noe Street Drainage Improvements Project, Carteret, NJ NJDEP regulates both the diversion of groundwater and discharge of groundwater to surface water associated with construction dewatering. Accordingly, pursuant to N.J.A.0 7:19 and 7:14A, a Water Allocation Permit and a Discharge Permit, respectively are required. SCOPE OF WORK: To assist the Borough in securing the required permits, CME proposes to complete the following scope of work: TASK 1: GROUNDWATER SAMPLING Groundwater quality data associated with the planned dewatering activities has to be submitted to the NJDEP as a part of the permit application. CME will collect up to six (6) groundwater samples to characterize the quality of groundwater that will be pumped and discharged. The g roundwater samples will be collected from temporary borings /w ells installed utilizin dir ect - push drilling techniques. The temporary borings will be biased to areas suspected to contain the greatest levels of contamination (e.g., areas known to contain historic fill, existing CEAs, existing CKEs, existing Deed Notice areas, etc.) within the zone of influence associated with the dewatering operations. CME will complete the proposed scope of work, in accordance with the Technical Requirements for Site Remediation (N.J.A.C. 7:26E) and NJDEP Field Sampling Procedures Manual, dated August 2005. All the drilling work will be completed by a NJDEP licensed driller. The groundwater samples collected will be submitted to a NJDEP certified laboratory for analyses. Samples will be tracked utilizing standard chain -of- custody procedures. All the groundwater samples will be analyzed for the TCL/TAL +30. Standard turnaround times for preliminary results are assumed. TASK 2: PERMITTING Water Allocation Permit -B It isour understanding thatthe more than 100,000 gallons of groundwater will be pumped during the planned construction activities. Applicable regulations require that a NJDEP permit be obtained for these activities. At least 30 -days before the construction dewatering activities start, ASSOCIATES Mayor Daniel Reiman April 13, 2015 Borough of Carteret Page 3 Re: Proposal — Consulting Services - NJDEP Permits Noe Street Drainage Improvements Project, Carteret, NJ CME will prepare and submit the Short Term Water Use Permit -by -rule, Form BWA -003, to the NJDEP Bureau of Water Allocation & Well Permitting, The Short Term Water Use Permit -by -rule allows for diversion of 100,000 gallons of water per day or more, only for a period of less than 31 days annually. If the dewatering activities exceed 30 -days a Water allocation Permit must be obtained, CME will also assist the Borough with limited notification requirements associated with the permit -by -rule. Specifically, CME will notify the local Health Department and well owners within the estimated zone of influence associated with the construction dewatering activities. General Permit to Manage Clean Groundwater: If the above discussed sampling indicates that groundwater associated the construction dewatering activities is "clean, "A Construction Dewatering General Permit (137) Request for Authorization (RFA) Certification Form will be submitted to the NJDEP. The RFA form will be submitted- 14 -days before the - construction dewatering activities - start. This will result in an authorization for short term discharge of "clean" water to receiving waters (except waters classified as FWI, FW2- Categoryl, Pinelands and certain Shellfish waters). "Clean," refers to groundwater that meets thte limitations outlined in Appendix A ( "... accordance with the remediation standards at N.J.A.C. 7.14A -12, Appendix B except for MTBE, which is in accordance with N.J.A. C. 7:0 -1.14 et seq.... ') of the permit. General Permit to Manage Impacted Groundwater: If the groundwater sampling discussed in Task 1 indicates that groundwater is impacted, at concentrations that exceed the limitations in Appendix A as referenced above, CME will prepare a RFA for either a General Petroleum Product Clean-Up (13413) or General Groundwater Remediation Clean-Up (BGR) permit. A 13413 permit will be obtained to manage groundwater impacted with petroleum products. A BGR permit will be obtained to manage groundwater impacted with non - petroleum products. The sampling data will indicate the appropriate option. CME will prepare a RFA for the correct General Surface Water Permit and any supplementary forms required by the NJDEP. This option would require the completion of NJDEP Treatment Works Approval (TWA) Forms. It is assumed that the contractor would submit these form and the associated costs have not been included in this proposal. ASSOCIATES Mayor Daniel Reiman April 13, 2015 Borough of Carteret Page 4 Re: Proposal -- Consulting Services - NJDEP Permits Noe Street Drainage Improvements Project, Carteret, NJ SCHEDULE: Upon issuance of Notice to Proceed by the Borough, CMEwill complete the groundwater sampling and submit the required RFA within two (2)months of authorization. COST: The total cost estimate for completion of the proposed Scope of Services is $14,043. The budget includes approximately $7,145 in subcontracted costs (e.g., equipment rentals, laboratory analysis, Geoprobe, etc.). Description Estimated Budget Task 1: Groundwater Sampling $8,920 Task 2: Permitting Water Allocation Permit-By-Rule $5,123 General Permit to Manage Clean Groundwater General Permit to Manage Impacted Groundwater Total Estimated Budget $14,043 The cost estimate contained in this proposal is CMS's best estimate of the effort required to complete the work as outlined in the Scope of Work. Borough will be billed for the actual effort expended to implement the proposed scope of work in accordance with the attached our hourly billing rates and other expenses associated with the project. CME will not exceed the approved budget without obtaining prior approval from the Borough.
