SUBJECT: PROPOSAL TO PERFORM A SUBSURFACE INVESTIGATION, LABORATORY
TESTING PROGRAM,AND PROVIDE GEOTECHNICAL RECOMMENDATIONS
FOR THE PROPOSED
NASCC WATER LINE EXTENSION PROJECT
Ocean Drive,Corpus Christi,Texas
RETL Proposal Number: P032619A
Dear Ms. Gomez,
Rock Engineering and Testing Laboratory, Inc. (RETL) (TBPE Firm No. 2101) is pleased to submit the
following proposal to provide a subsurface investigation, laboratory testing, and a Geotechnical
recommendations report to be used during the design of the proposed NASCC Water Line Extension Project
located adjacent to Ocean Drive in Corpus Christi,Texas.
Based on information provided to RETL, the project will include the installation of a water transmission
main that will be installed along the south side of Ocean Drive from the just east of the intersection of Sand
Dollar Boulevard and Ocean Drive to NAS Corpus Christi. The proposed alignment of the water
transmission main will be located within the right-of-way of Ocean Drive at approximately 5-ft from the
edge of pavement. The project includes a total of approximately 5,948-ft of 10-inch water main installed
by conventional trenching methods and approximately 6,203-ft of 10-inch water main installed by
horizontal directional drilling (HDD). The water main installed by conventional trenching will have a
minimum of 36-inches to 48-inch of cover.
As directed by the City of Corpus Christi's Engineering Services Department, RETL will perform six
borings to a termination depth of 10-feet, three borings to a termination depth of 25-feet, and two borings
to a termination depth of 60-feet at the requested locations along the utility alignment. (Total number of
Borings: 11; Total linear feet of Drilling: 255 LF).
The scope of work is outlined below.

Attn: Ms. Sandra Gomez,P.E. RETL Proposal No.: P032619A
Scope of the Proposed Subsurface Investigation
• RETL requests that Urban Engineering stake the boring locations in the field prior to the field
investigation.
• The client or representative of the client shall obtain the required access requirements, including right
of entry, and excavation permits, if applicable. RETL requests that a point of contact be provided for
NAS CC if a dig permit will be required.
• The client shall perform due diligence to assure RETL that the boring locations are accessible and clear
of private utilities and obstructions, such as piping, fences, heavy brush, shrubs and trees. The borings
will be relocated if necessary.
• Coordination with the Texas 811 system will be performed by RETL to identify underground public
utilities in the proximity of the boring locations. The borings will be relocated if necessary.
• An experienced soil technician will log the borings in the field full-time during the drilling operations.
• A truck mounted drilling rig will be utilized to access the boring locations.
• It is anticipated that the borings will be done in the right-of-way adjacent to Ocean Drive and that traffic
control will not be required to perform the borings at the requested locations.
• The borings will be sampled at 2.5-foot intervals to a depth of 15-feet, and in 5-foot intervals to the
termination depth of the borings.
• Disturbed soil samples will be obtained employing split-barrel sampling procedures in general
accordance with the procedures for "Penetration Test and Split-Barrel Sampling of Soils, (ASTM
D1586)."
• Relatively undisturbed soil samples will be obtained using thin-wall tube sampling procedures in
accordance with"Thin Walled Tube Sampling of Soils, (ASTM D1587)," if applicable.
• Shear strength of cohesive soils will be estimated using a hand penetrometer, if applicable.
• Standard penetration tests (SPT)will be recorded in granular soils.
• Groundwater readings will be obtained during drilling and immediately upon completion of the drilling
operations.
• After completion of drilling operations,the open boreholes will be backfilled with a bentonite grout and
cuttings from the drilling operations will be spread across the site near the boring location.
Scope of Laboratory Testing Program
• Supplementary Visual Classification(ASTM D2487)
• Water Content Tests(ASTM D2216)
• Atterberg Limits Tests (ASTM D4318)
• Percent passing No. 200 (ASTM D1140)
• Unconfined Compressive Strength Tests(ASTM D2166)
The preceding test methods may be performed on selected samples, depending on the actual subsurface
conditions encountered. All phases of the laboratory testing program will be performed in general
accordance with applicable ASTM Specifications. All laboratory test results will be provided in the report
or included on the boring logs.

Projected Schedule
After authorization, it is estimated that the drilling operations can begin within 5 to 10 business days and
the final report will be submitted within three weeks of the completed fieldwork. RETL will consult with
the engineers as field and laboratory test results become available by providing preliminary
recommendations as required to assist in design. If adjustments to the proposed timeline are required to
meet the existing project schedule,please contact RETL so that we can accommodate your needs.
Geotechnical Engineering Report
In addition to the field and laboratory testing, a geotechnical report will be prepared that includes a
description of the field exploration and laboratory tests, boring logs, a discussion of the subsurface
conditions encountered, and geotechnical recommendations.
Fees and Limitations
We understand that we have been chosen to provide these services for this publicly funded
project. Therefore,by providing cost information,we are not in violation of the Texas Professional Services
Procurement Act.
The total fee to perform the scope of work outlined above is$16,000.00.
The total project fee includes the field investigation,laboratory testing, geotechnical recommendations,and
report preparation. The following items will be added to the final invoice as required:
1. Standby time: $275.00 per hour/per company.
2. Traffic Control: $2,000.00 per day, if required
Please note that the total fee provided above will be honored for 90 days after the date of this proposal.
After 90 days, RETL should be contacted to reevaluate the fees and revise the proposal as needed.
Services provided for any revisions after the submittal of the final report,approved by the client in a change
order, will be invoiced at a rate of$180.00 per hour.
The total fee to perform the scope of work does not include site assistance in the event the boring locations
are inaccessible. Mechanical assistance required to access the boring locations will be assessed based on
the subcontractors' hourly fee plus the mobilization fee.
Services provided by RETL under this Agreement will be performed in a manner consistent with the degree
of care and skill ordinarily exercised by members of the same profession currently practicing under similar
circumstances.
The Client shall provide for RETL's right to enter the property owned by the Client and/or others
