M~tr f' tI +>11''1 Va/\ r . '- Re: Scope of Additional Services Vertical Delineation of Arsenic Contamination Carteret Waterfront Marina Site Our File: HCA00502.01 Dear Mayor Reiman: As you are aware, the Waterfront Deyelopment Permit for the proposed deyelopment of the marina was withdrawn on October 21,2005 pursuant to a letter dated October 14, 2005 from the NJDEP Office of Dredging and Sediment Technology. The NJDEP indicated that the application did not designate the upland disposal and/or beneficial reuse facility, as the presence of eleyated leyels of arsenic found in all four (4) composite samples exceeded the allowable amount in the State of New Jersey. We performed a preliminary round of sampling earlier this year, which showed consistent arsenic results approximately 30 to 40 ppm; howeyer, the full sampling program's composite samples revealed arsenic leyels in excess of 100 ppm. Considering that the preliminary surficial sampling had relatively low arsenic levels, it was believed that the composited sampling would have yielded lower results than were obtained. In our experience, and based upon our discussions with the NJDEP Office of Dredging and Sediment Technology, dredge spoils containing a concentration of arsenic over 100 ppm cannot be taken to a beneficial reuse facility. In addition, we have had an in-depth discussion with Valerie Montecalvo of Bayshore Recycling, and concluded that due to the elevated levels and nature of the arsenic contamination, Bayshore cannot treat the dredged materials by soil washing technology. However, Bayshore recommends that a pilot program could be initiated using its proprietary thermal treatment technology, and they would meet with representatives of the NJDEP at our direction. They believe a volume of approximately 3,000 to 5,000 CY of material could be initially dredged for the pilot program once a special permit is obtained from the NJDEP. However, they would need a better idea of the extent of the contamination. r CONSU.l1NG />NO MJ\IKFAl ENGINEERS 1460 ROUTE 9 SOUTH, HOWELL, NEW JERSEY 07731 - (732) 462-7400 - FAX: (732) 409-0756 @ SIPROPOSAL\CA502-01 Resample Vert Del Icon 11-8-05 doc - Honorable Mayor Dan Reiman Re: Scope of Additional Services Vertical Delineation of Arsenic Contamination Carteret Waterfront Marina Site November 8, 2005 HCA00502.01 Proposal No. 2005-198 Page 2 It is our experience that landfilling costs including trucking, tipping and disposal fees are approximately $60 per ton. Assuming the dredge material is approximately 1.6 CY per ton, it appears to landfill the +/- 40,000 - 60,000 CY of dredge material is approximately $9.6 million, assuming beneficial reuse is not feasible. As such, due to the limited disposal options, we belieye it is in the best interest of the project financially to perform another round of sampling. By performing discrete, non-composite sampling, we believe we can better approximate the extent of contamination, both horizontally and yertically, in an attempt to maximize the beneficial reuse quantity, and minimize the quantity that may require landfilling. As such, we are pleased to propose the following. Task 1 - Collection of Additional Sediment Samples and Testing Additional sediment samples will be collected from each of approximately 12 designated sampling locations to a maximum depth of 12 feet below the sediment surface or point- of-refusal. Three (3) samples from each location will be collected and analyzed for arsenic. A total of 36 samples will be tested for arsenic. Samples will be collected using an electric vibracorer fitted with a 4" aD barrel. Flexible, plastic liners will be used from which the samples will be extruded and containerized in new, 2 gallon buckets. At the end of each day samples will be transferred to laboratory for processing and storage. It is estimated that 2-day field effort would be necessary to complete this work. Sediment chemistry for arsenic will be performed on the sediment samples, In addition each indiyidual core and each strata within each core must have the physical analyses of grain size, % moisture and TOC's conducted. The results of the data will be evaluated, and findings and recommendations will be presented in a report. Depending on the availability of equipment, it is estimated that the work will be completed within 6 to 8 weeks from the acceptance date of the proposal.

It is believed that since there were some much lower leyels in the initial sampling, delineating the higher from the lower concentrations could saye considerable costs for disposal. Exceptions: Any engineering services beyond the scope outlined above will be considered extra. Said fees will be based on the hourly rate or a fixed fee mutually agreed upon in writing. The fees on the hourly rate schedule are subject to change by January 1 of every year.
