work,services,materials,equipment and supplies necessary to complete analysis and design for the
project.
This Phase I Environmental Site Assessment (ESA)will be performed on the planned Site 2 Waukee
development area in general accordance with ASTM E-1527-05.The project area covers approximately
620 acres and is located at the northwest and northeast corners of Hickman Road and T Avenue.The
Quad Graphics site is excluded from the ESA evaluation area.The objective of this Phase I ESA is to
identify,to the extent feasible,pursuant to the processes prescribed in ASTM E1527-05,recognized
environmental conditions (RECs)in connection with the subject property.
The scope of services to be performed by the Consultant shall be completed in accordance with generally
accepted standards of practice and shall include the services to complete the following tasks:
I.BASIC SERVICES OF THE CONSULTANT
The Consultant shall consult on a regular basis with the City to clarify and define the City's requirements
for the Project and review available data.The City agrees to furnish to the Consultant full information with
respect to the City's requirements,including any special or extraordinary considerations for the Project or
special services needed,and also to make available pertinent existing data.The Consultant shall provide
the following basic services in regard to the Project:
A.Phase I ESA
This work will consist of the following tasks:
Task I —Records Review
The Consultant will perform a review of reasonably ascertainable records pertaining to the
site.Activities associated with a records review include the following:
~Investigate the site's regulatory history to learn about permits granted,citations issued,or
records of public complaint.
~Evaluate prior and present uses of the site and those adjacent to it.
~Review readily available topographic and real estate maps,historical aerial photos,fire
insurance maps,geologic information,and hydrogeologic data.
~Review readily available published information about surface and subsurface conditions.
~Assess the potential for environmental impairment from such items as underground
storage tanks (USTs),above ground storage tanks (ASTs),chemicals,PCBs,process air
emissions,waste accumulation areas,storm water impacts and wastewater
conveyances,etc.
~Review CERCLIS,the NPL,and other such data bases for listings of the subject site and
those facilities within the standard search radii as defined by ASTM 1527-05.
~Review state UST/AST registrations for installations on this and adjacent properties (if
any).
~Review public documents (e.g.,deed records,street directones,etc.)to chronicle site
ownership dating back to 1940 and beyond,when the historical information is readily
available.(A chain of title search is not included in this proposal.)
Task II —Site Reconnaissance
The Consultant will perform a reconnaissance of the site in an attempt to identify RECs in
connection with the property.The reconnaissance will consist of visually and/or physically

observing the site and any structures located on the property to the extent possible.Potential

~Potential off-site sources of contamination
~Discolored surface water
~Odors
~Drums and other portable containers
~Evidence of PCS-containing equipment,pesticides,etc.

No surface,subsurface or building material samples will be collected under the scope of this
Phase I assessment.
Task III -Interviews
The Consultant will atiempt to hold discussions with present and past property owners,operators,
occupants and other persons knowledgeable in regard to past or present site operations to obtain
information indicating RECs in connection with the property.
Interviews will also be held with state and/or local government officials to obtain information
indicating RECs in connection with the property.The Consultant will diligently endeavor to
maintain confidentiality regarding the nature of this site investigation.
~rr iv —R
Upon completion of these tasks,the Consultant will evaluate the information collected and
prepare a report documenting the findings,opinions and conclusions of the Phase I ESA.The
report will describe the services performed and identify known or suspect RECs,and historical
RECs,and de minimis conditions.It will offer an opinion regarding the potential for adverse
environmental impacts at the property.The report will also address the potential for adverse
environmental impacts to or from adjoining properties,where the information is readily
available.Three copies of the report will be provided to the City.
At the City's request,the Consultant will provide recommendations for additional investigation,if
any,to detect the presence of hazardous substances or petroleum products,Any such
recommendations will be in the form of correspondence separate from the Phase I ESA report.
It should be noted that unless specified elsewhere in this proposal,the non-scope considerations,
as defined in Section 13.1.5 of the ASTM E 1527-05 are not included in this proposed scope of
work.However,if during the course of the project the Consultant becomes aware that any of the
Section 13.1.5 non-scope items may be a potential concern,we will notify the City immediately to
discuss this issue and determine whether an amended scope of work should be implemented.
