Geotechnical Investigation Scope of Services (Revision No. 3) BSK Proposal GL21-22459 <br />PFAS Treatment and Wells Rehabilitation Project November 10, 2021 <br />Pleasanton, California Page 1 <br />Environmental, Geotechnical, Construction Services, Analytical Testing - An Employee-Owned Company <br />ATTACHMENT C <br />BSK Associates <br />Pleasanton PFAS Treatment and Wells Rehabilitation Project <br />Geotechnical Investigation Scope of Services <br />SCOPE OF SERVICES <br />Our scope of services, as described below, includes pre-field activities, subsurface investigation, <br />preparation of a geotechnical data report and a geotechnical engineering report , perform a geotechnical <br />review of the project plans and specifications, provide post-report consultation, perform a site-specific <br />ground motion hazard analysis for the Centralized Treatment Facility, perform analytical testing of <br />groundwater and soil samples, and perform additional exploration associated with the alternative Well 9 <br />and 10 locations and pipe alignment along the eastern boundary of Alisal Elementary School. Our findings <br />will be summarized in reports prepared under the supervision of a California registered Geotechnical <br />Engineer. <br />ANTICIPATED SUBSURFACE CONDITIONS <br />According to the U.S. Geological Survey, the project site (Site) area is mapped as Holocene alluvial fan <br />deposits, fine-grained facies – fine-grained alluvial fan and flood plain overbank deposits that are rich in <br />clay and silt with interbedded sand and occasional gravel. According to the California Geological Survey <br />(CGS), historical high groundwater in the area surrounding the Site ranges from about 30 to 50 feet below <br />the existing ground surface (BGS). In addition, as shown on Figure 1, the western approximately two-thirds <br />of the Site is located within a Seismic Hazard Zone for liquefaction. However, the Site is not located within <br />an Alquist-Priolo Earthquake Fault Zone. <br />Task 1 – Pre-Field Activities <br />This task will include project coordination, project set up/administration for BSK’s services, utility <br />clearance, locating exploration points in the field, and filing drilling permits with Zone 7 Water Agency and <br />an encroachment permit with the City of Pleasanton (City). A reconnaissance of the project area and <br />immediate vicinity will be conducted to observe existing conditions and features that may impact our <br />investigation or project geotechnical design/construction. BSK will mark the locations of the borings and <br />CPTs during the site reconnaissance. The explorations will be located where they do not conflict with <br />overhead/underground utility lines, trees, or other obstructions and are readily accessible to drill/CPT <br />rigs. <br />We will call Underground Service Alert (USA North 811) a minimum of 72 hours prior to our field <br />exploration for utility clearance. It should be noted that USA North 811 will only check for utilities on the <br />public right-of-way and does not include private property. Therefore, we will hire a private utility locator <br />to help locate detectable underground utilities near our proposed explorations outside City streets only.
