Number EXHIBIT "A" SCOPE OF WORK Perform a limited geotechnical investigation forthe proposed Palm Canyon Wash Floodwalls,which includes the construction of approximately 4,100lineal feet offloodwalla long the southern levee and approximately 3,200 lineal feet of floodwall along the northern levee of the Palm Canyon Wash, between Palm Canyon Drive and the Gene Autry Trail bridge. The proposed floodwalls are to be approximately 3 feet in height. The: purpose of the investigation is to explore and sample the subsurface soil conditions to a depth of approximately 10 feet from the levee surface, and to provide appropriate geotehnical recommendations for design and construction of the proposed floodwalls. The investigation is intended to determine the geotechnical design parameters needed for wall construction only, and will not include an evaluation of the overall geotechnical hazards to the levees, such as settlement of the levee fill or the underlying native materials. The investigation and report also assume that the levee fills,as constructed,meet FEMA and Flood Control standards and were properly prepared and compacted. If unusual or hazardous conditions are found, we will discuss them in our report and make recommendations for further investigation, if warranted. The limited geotechnical investigation will be performed utilizing a truck-mounted drill rig. Nine exploratory borings to depth of 10± feet are proposed at approximately 750 foot intervals, five on the south levee and four on the north levee. Prior to initiating the field investigation, the boring locations will be marked in the field and Underground Service Alert will be notified. All necessary permits will be obtained for access to the site. During the field investigation, a continuous log of the subsurface soil conditions, as encountered within each exploratory boring will be recorded by a staff geologist, who will direct the field investigation. A split-spoon ring sampler or standard penetration test (SPT) sampler will be driven ahead of the borings at approximate 3 to 5 foot intervals, to the full depth of the boring. Equivalent SPT blowcounts will be recorded at each sample depth. Undisturbed, as well as bulk samples of the soils encountered will be placed in sealed containers and returned to the laboratory for testing and evaluation. Upon completion of the field investigation, testing will be performed on samples returned to the laboratory in order to determine the engineering characteristics of the on-site materials. Laboratory testing will include, but not necessarily be limited to, moisture content determinations, optimum moisture - maximum density relationships, direct shear strength, corrosion potential, and sieve analysis. Following completion of the field and laboratory investigations, a report will be prepared defining the scope and procedures involved in the investigation. This report will discuss the engineering characteristics of the subsurface soils with respect to the planned improvements. The report will include recommendations for foundation design, as well as recommendations to mitigate any unusual soil conditions encountered, such as corrosion potential. The investigation can begin within 3 working days of written authorization to proceed. The final report will be issued within approximately 2 weeks following completion of the field investigation. Six copies of the limited geotechnical investigation will be provided to the City. Special Notes: Section 4.3, Performance Bond, is waived. In accordance with Section 4.1 (d),a policy of$1,000,000 of professional liability insurance shall be provided.
