Preliminary Field Investigation. XxXxxxx will solicit a minimum two (2) bids from a drilling subcontractor to perform the subsurface investigation; we have assumed that the drilling subcontractor will be retained by the client and have included an estimate of their fee in this proposal. Actual drilling subcontractor costs may vary. XxXxxxx will perform a preliminary subsurface investigation to accommodate the design schedule. The preliminary investigation will consist of advancing test borings around the perimeter of the existing building prior to completion of demolition to the existing structure. Three test borings will be advanced from the sidewalk using a truck-mounted drill rig to a depth of 100 feet below ground surface, or 5 feet into competent rock. Standard penetration tests (SPTs) will be performed during drilling and soil samples will be obtained using a split spoon sampler at about two-foot intervals to a depth of 12 feet and at approximate five-foot intervals thereafter at all boring locations. Our field engineer will log the soil borings and classify the soil samples using the modified Burmister classification system. The Unified Soil Classification System (USCS) symbol will also be provided for each stratum encountered. Rock will be described using a modified ISRM system. If rock is encountered, rock coring will be performed at each test boring location and will be advanced five (5) feet into competent bedrock. We will install a temporary groundwater observation well with a flush-mount locking cap to a depth of approximately 30-35 feet in two of the borings to observe groundwater levels at the site. Groundwater level readings will be taken during the exploration program. We will submit a select number of soil and rock core samples to our subcontracted geotechnical laboratory for testing. The testing program will help confirm the visual identification of the soils and strength of the underlying rock and will be used to develop engineering material properties used in our analysis. The testing program will consist of the following: • Grain Size Sieve Analyses & Classification, ASTM D422 • Moisture Content, ASTM D422 The drilling subcontractor will be required to contact the utility mark-out system as required by law. It is necessary for you to provide us with all available information regarding subsurface utilities at the project site. Neither we nor our subcontractor will be responsible for damage to, or repair of, utilities unknown to us. If sufficient information is not ava...

Accordingly, with the signing of this Agreement, the Contractor certifies that it has or will conduct a background investigation on Staff to whom the policy applies within the 12 months prior to the Staff commencing Services under this Agreement. The Contractor agrees to undertake a background investigation of any new/replacement Staff during the term of the Agreement. At a minimum, background investigations shall include a review/evaluation of the following: • identity verification, including Social Security Number search; • employment eligibility, including verification of U.S. citizenship or legal immigration status where appropriate; • criminal history/court records (Federal, State and local for the past five years); • work experience/history for the past five years; • pertinent skills, qualifications, and education/professional credentials; and • references. The Contractor must obtain the consent of its Staff to allow OSC, upon request: (i) to review the background investigation records, including all supporting documentation, and (ii) to conduct its own background investigation. Only Staff who have passed the background investigation, and provided such consent shall be assigned to provide Services to OSC under this Agreement. During the term of the Agreement, and in accordance with Appendix A (Section 10, Records), the Contractor must maintain records related to the background investigations performed.
