ENGINEERING AND TESTING AND OBSERVATION SERVICES According to the schedule provided from Royston Hanamoto Alley & Abey (RHAA), your project architect, the demolition at the site will be conducted on July 1 through August 15, 2008, and the site grading and improvement will be conducted between November 15 through December 15, 2008. As shown on the grading plan (Sheet C2.00, dated July 7, 2008) by BKF, the site grading consists of minor cuts, up to 2,168 cubic yards, and fills, up to 4,021 cubic yards to establish building pads for the eight buildings/structures, including a main house, old house, Sunday school barn, hay barn, pump house, wood shed, trash enclosure shed and transformer shed. Imported fill is anticipated to achieve site grades. As shown on the site utility plan, Sheet C1.00, the improvements include the installation of storm drain, water, sanitary sewer, and fire water lines. Based on this schedule and a brief review of the grading and improvement plans, we estimate the time for demolition will be 5 days, site grading will be 10 days and improvement installation will also be 10 days. We propose to perform our services on a time-and-expense basis in accordance with our current Preferred Client fee schedule.
