SUBJECT: COST ESTIMATE PROPOSAL FOR ENVIRONMENTAL
SERVICES – ADDITIONAL SERVICES
FORMER LESLIE STREET GAS PLANT
UKIAH, CALIFORNIA
NCRWQCB Case No. 1NMC233
EBA Project No. 23-3496
Dear Ms. Trincado:
EBA Engineering (EBA) has prepared this Cost Estimate Proposal to present a
recommend scope of work and cost estimate for additional services as described in the
existing Agreement for Professional Consulting Services issued December 6th, 2023 for
Professional Environmental Services related to the former Leslie Street Gas Plant site
located in Ukiah, California.
As previously discussed, a significant amount of free product was encountered in
monitoring well MW-4 during the December 15, 2023 groundwater sampling event at the
former Leslie Street Gas Plant site. The amount of free product in the well prevented a
reliable measurement of the product thickness since the entire length of the product
interface probe was coated in thick black product but is estimated to be at least two to
three feet in thickness based on field observations. These conditions are unanticipated
based upon previous analytical data collected in 2004, 2005, 2011, and 2012.
On December 15th, EBA collected a product sample from MW-4 which was analyzed by K
Prime, Inc. (K Prime), a state-certified laboratory in Santa Rosa, California. Prior to
analysis, EBA discussed the concerns of potential vandalism to the monitoring well with K
Prime’s chemist. Based on the analysis, the chromatogram does not exhibit the typical
pattern for waste oil and the analytical signature of the product sample closely resembled
that of the other groundwater samples collected during this monitoring event as well as
historical samples collected in 2004/2005 & 2011/2012 which were also analyzed by K
Prime. Thus, there is no obvious indicator of dumping into the well.
EXHIBIT 1
2
SCOPE OF WORK
Based on the conditions observed, EBA previously provided the following
recommendations to the City of Ukiah for additional work:
• Schedule a phone call with the North Coast Regional Water Quality Control Board
(NCRWQCB) to inform them of the field conditions. As previously requested by the
City of Ukiah, EBA will be available to join the discussion with the NCRWQCB.
• Remobilize to the site to remove the free product, to the extent feasible, from MW-4
to allow for collection of a representative groundwater sample. After product
removal, EBA will purge the monitoring well and collect a groundwater sample
which would be expected to have significantly lower concentrations of site
constituents. The resampling data will be presented in the Fourth Quarter 2023
Groundwater Monitoring Report.
COST ESTIMATE
The estimated cost to perform the Additional Services is as follows:
Task 1: Phone Meeting with the NCRWQCB
Labor: $170
Task 2: Product Removal and Resampling
Labor (remobilization, product removal/containerization, monitoring well purging and
sampling): $550
Materials/Supplies: $250
Analytical Testing: $340
Total Cost: $1,310.00
The Additional Work described herein would be billed on a time-and-materials basis not to
exceed $1,310.00.
ASSUMPTIONS
For the purposes of developing the scope of work and the cost estimate, the following
assumptions were made:
• Field work (monitoring and sampling) is not subject to prevailing wage.
• There is free and open access to the site.
• The analytical testing will be performed on a standard 10-day laboratory turn-around
time.
• The costs described above assume that one groundwater sample will be collected
from MW-4 following product removal and analyzed for the site constituents of
3
concern (Diesel Range Organics, Heavy Range Organics, and Polyaromatic
Hydrocarbons).
•It is assumed that free product removed from MW-4 will be appropriately labeled,
containerized in a steel drum, and transported to the City of Ukiah Corporate Yard
where it will be stored pending subsequent characterization and disposal as part of
a future scope of work. Costs associated with disposal of the drum are not included
as part of this scope of work.
LIMITATIONS
Throughout this project, additional information may become available. This new
information may result in a change in the scope of work, which may result in a change in
the cost of the project. EBA will notify the client when there is a change in the cost and will
not proceed without prior approval of the changes from the client. Throughout the project,
EBA will make every effort to reduce the cost of the project by negotiating with regulatory
agencies or landfills to eliminate unnecessary procedures and/or analytical costs.
CLOSING
I trust this provides the information you require at this time. If you have any comments or
questions, please call EBA at (707) 544-0784.
Sincerely,
EBA ENGINEERING
