Subject: Environmental Borings and Related Field Tasks
Dixie Farm Road Widening Project
SH 35 to Beamer Road — Pearland, Texas
Dear Mr. Bavarian:
In response to our telephone conversations, we are sending this letter addressing the costs for
environmental related field tasks for the Dixie Farm Road Widening Project in Pearland, Texas. The purpose of this
letter is to separate the field costs for the environmental tasks from those outlined in our proposal for the
geotechnical investigation. It is our understanding that the costs associated with the environmental tasks will be
covered separately.
The following are believed to be the minimum procedures for test borings in the Brio Site area. As
discussed with you it is possible that additional efforts may be required for completing work in this area. These
could include personal protective procedures exceeding Level D, extensive monitoring of the borehole area while
drilling, installation of special isolation casings, decontamination of all drilling equipment and tools, and other
precautions based on the level of risk in the area of the Brio Site. If such requirements are determined, we will not
proceed with the field activities until the environmental procedures have been reviewed and approved by you.

EXHIBIT A
TERMS FOR GEOTECHNICAL ENGINEERING SERVICES
THE AGREEMENT
This AGREEMENT is made by and between TOLUNAY-WONG ENGINEERS, INC., hereinafter referred to as GEOTECHNICAL
ENGINEER, and the CLIENT of the attached PROPOSAL. This AGREEMENT between the parties consists of these TERMS, the
attached PROPOSAL and any exhibits or attachments noted in the PROPOSAL will constitute the entire AGREEMENT. Any
changes to this AGREEMENT must be mutually agreed to in writing.
STANDARD OF CARE
The CLIENT recognizes that subsurface conditions vary from those observed at locations where borings, surveys, or explorations are
made, and that site conditions may change with time. Data, interpretations, and recommendations by the GEOTECHNICAL
ENGINEER will be based solely on information available to the GEOTECHNICAL ENGINEER. The GEOTECHNICAL
ENGINEER is responsible for those data, interpretations, and recommendations, but will not be responsible for other parties'
interpretations or use of the information developed.
Services performed by the GEOTECHNICAL ENGINEER under this AGREEMENT are expected by the CLIENT to be conducted in
a manner consistent with the level of care and skill ordinarily exercised by members of the engineering profession practicing
contemporaneously under similar conditions in the locality of the project. No other warranty, expressed or implied, is made.
SITE ACCESS AND SITE CONDITIONS
CLIENT will grant or obtain free access to the site for all equipment and personnel necessary for the GEOTECHNICAL ENGINEER
to perform the work set forth in this AGREEMENT. The CLIENT will notify any and all possessors of the project site that CLIENT
has granted GEOTECHNICAL ENGINEER free access to the site. The GEOTECHNICAL ENGINEER will take reasonable
precautions to minimize damage to the site, but it is understood by CLIENT that, in the normal course of work, some damage may
occur and the correction of such damage is not part of this AGREEMENT unless so specified in the PROPOSAL.
SAMPLE DISPOSAL
The GEOTECHNICAL ENGINEER will dispose of all soil and rock samples 30 days after submission of report covering those
samples. Further storage or transfer of samples can be made at Client's expense upon CLIENT'S prior written request. All hazardous
materials will be retumed to CLIENT for disposal, unless other arrangements have been made by CLIENT.
CONSTRUCTION MONITORING
If the GEOTECHNICAL ENGINEER is retained by the CLIENT to provide a site representative for the purpose of monitoring
specific portions of the construction work as set forth in the PROPOSAL then this phrase applies. For the specified assignment, the
GEOTECHNICAL ENGINEER will report observations and professional opinions to the CLIENT. No action of the
GEOTECHNICAL ENGINEER or GEOTECHNICAL ENGINEER's site representative can be construed as altering my

PROPOSAL FOR GEOTECHNICAL SERVICES (REVISED)
DIXIE FARM ROAD WIDENING PROJECT
SH 35 TO BEAMER ROAD
PEARLAND, TEXAS
Dear Mr. Bavarian:
Tolunay-Wong Engineers, Inc. (TWEI) is pleased to submit this proposal for geotechnical field
and engineering services for the Dixie Farm Road Widening Project in Pearland, Texas. Our proposal
was prepared in response to your letter dated November 10, 1999.
The proposed project will include the widening of Dixie Farm Road from SH 35 to Beamer Road,
approximately 27,000 ft. The proposed widening will be to a 4-lane divide/undivided roadway. The
improvements will include the renovation of four (4) bridge crossings at Cowart Creek; Mary's Creek
Bypass, Mary's Creek, and the replacement of the bridge at Mud Gully. The existing Clear Creek Bridge
will remain and will not be widened. The project will also include paving design and storm sewer
construction. The five (5) creek crossings will be used for storm sewer outfalls.
Scope of Services
Our scope of services will include field exploration, laboratory testing and engineering analysis
for the proposed project.
Field Exploration. Based on your letter, the field exploration portion of this project will include
two (2) 75-ft borings at each of the bridge crossing renovation sites and fifteen (15) 15-ft borings along
the proposed improvement section for pavement design and storm sewer construction. The majority of
the existing Dixie Farm road section is a two-lane asphalt paved road with intermittent sections of
concrete paving along the project alignment. For the purposes of the proposal, we are assuming that the
project borings will either be drilled through the asphalt paving or along the shoulder of the existing
roadway. We have not included provisions for concrete coring. However, if coring of the concrete is
required, the coring will be performed in accordance with previously established coring rates.

The bridge crossing at Mud Gully and the paving section to the north of Mud Gully will be within
the Brio Super Fund Site. The drilling of the borings along this section of the alignment will include
following an approved safety plan obtained from the Brio Site personnel, borehole grouting, and
containment of the fluids and solids generated during field drilling and sampling. The field personnel
for this portion of the project will be OSHA trained. For the purposes of this proposal, we are assuming
that the fieldwork will be conducted in Level D PPE with appropriate air monitoring devices supplied by
the Brio Project. The boreholes will be grouted to the surface with a cement/bentonite grout at
completion of the drilling and sampling. We are assuming that all fluids and solids generated will be
containerized and relinquished to the Brio Site personnel. We have not included provisions for obtaining
environmental quality samples or for environmental analysis of the samples or cuttings.
As discussed with you, the above environmental concerns are believed to be the minimum level
acceptable. It is possible that significant additional efforts may be required for completing work in the
Brio area. These could include personal protective procedures exceeding the Level D, extensive
monitoring of the borehole area while drilling, installation of special isolation casing, decontamination of
all drilling equipment and tools, and other precautions based on the level of risk in the area of the Brio
Site. If such requirements are determined, we will not proceed with the field activities until the
environmental procedures have been reviewed and approved by you.
We have assumed that traffic control and utility clearance will be required for the entire length of
the proposed alignment. We will contact the Utility Coordinating Committee to arrange for the marking
of any existing underground lines prior to our mobilization. We will coordinate with local law
enforcement departments to arrange for traffic control during the drilling project.
The field work will be conducted using standard geotechnical drilling and sampling procedures.
The soils will be sampled continuously to the boring completion depths. All drilling will be performed in
accordance with TxDOT criteria. TxDOT cone penetrometer tests (THD Cone) will be performed at 5-ft
intervals. We will transport representative portions of the recovered samples to our soil mechanics
laboratory for testing. We will backfill the project borings with soil cuttings upon completion of 24-hour
water level measurements.
Laboratory Testing. We will perform soil mechanics laboratory tests to measure the physical
and engineering properties of selected representative soil samples from the project borings. The testing
will generally include Unconfined Compression, Atterberg Limits, Percent Finer than The No. 200 Sieve,
and natural Moisture Content. TxDOT testing criteria will be followed.
Engineering Analysis We will prepare an engineering report that will present our findings and
provide you with geotechnical design recommendations for the proposed bridge, paving and storm sewer
construction, including:

This letter is our proposal to provide surveying services in connection with the Dixie Farm Road
Widening Project in Hams and Brazoria Counties, Texas. The project originates at the
intersection of Dixie Farm Road and State Highway 35 in Brazoria County and terminates at
the intersection of Dixie Farm Road and Beamer Street in Hams County. The length of the
project is approximately 28,000 L.F. or 5.3 miles. Project Control, aerial mapping and
topographic surveys will be required for the entire length of the project. Right-of-way mapping
and descriptions will be required for the portion of the project originating at the intersection of
State Highway 35 and terminating at the easterly City of Pearland City Limit Line or
approximately 3.8 miles. Based on our discussions and a visit to the site we understand the
scope of services to be as follows:
HORIZONTAL CONTROL AND VERTICAL CONTROL
Based on approval from TxDOT, the primary control line(s) will be established on the
ground utilizing the standards of accuracy for Second Order, Class II, horizontal control
traverses as described in the Federal Geodetic Control Committee publication entitled
"Standards and Specifications for Geodetic Control Networks", reprinted February 1991. The
final traverse data will be submitted to the State for study to determine the acceptability of the
traverse and benchmark loop. The baseline control points will be set using 5/8-inch iron rods,
36-inches long. The benchmarks will be set using %-inch iron rods, 4-feet long. Aerial Control
Points will be established in the vicinity of the centerline of Dixie Farm Road and approximately
500-feet north and south of the existing right-of-way at 1500-foot intervals for the entire 5.3
mile length of the project. The points will be appropriately marked and maintained until the
route is aerially photographed.

RIGHT-OF-WAY ACQUISITION DOCUMENTS
Crossland Acquisition Company will be authorized by Walsh/Freese-Nichols to prepare current
title commitments for each tract affected by the widening of Dixie Farm Road from the
southeast Pearland City Limit Line to State Highway No. 35. Crossland will provide copies of
the current ownership deeds and all easement deeds for the tracts from which additional right-
of-way will be acquired. WSI will update the previously prepared abstract map to depict the
current right-of-way alignment as well as all easement lines. This map will also show all
relevant grantee names, recording data and recording dates. Based on the approved Abstract
Map and approved proposed alignment, WSI will recover property corner monumentation
along the proposed route and will horizontally relate it to the primary control line(s). Based on
the approval of the Preliminary Right -Of -Way Layout by the City of Pearland, TxDOT, pipeline
companies, and public utility companies, the Right -Of -Way Maps will be prepared in
accordance with TxDOT specifications. Individual parcel maps will be prepared in accordance
with TxDOT specifications.
Based on approval of the right-of-way alignment map, the P.C.s, P.T.s, angle points, points on
line and individual parcels will be staked with the appropriate monumentation as required by
TxDOT. This work will commence when written authorization to proceed is received from both
TxDOT and from Walsh/Freese-Nichols. A certified metes and bounds description will be
prepared for each individual parcel of land to be acquired for right-of-way purposes. An
individual parcel is defined as being all the land within the proposed right-of-way under
contiguous ownership.

TOPOGRGRAPHIC SURVEY
After the digital planimetric map information is furnished to WSI by Walsh/Freese-Nichols we
will verify the information shown on the map. We will supplement the portions of the map which
are obscured by vegetation with ground elevations. The horizontal location and vertical
elevation of pipelines will be determined after Walsh/Freese-Nichols has the pipeline
companies locate and probe the pipelines. There is no provision in this proposal for WSI to
probe or excavate pipelines to determine their location.

Manholes and inlets within the project area will be opened and the flowline elevations will be
determined.
Cross section elevations will be determined on top of the existing pavement at 100-foot
intervals to nearest 0.01-foot. Each existing street intersection will be detailed with elevations
to a point 100-feet beyond the point of intersection of the right-of-way lines.
All supplemental data will be added to the digital planimetric map in accordance with current

Work Plan
Digital Planimetric and Orthophoto Mapping
City of Pearland, Texas
The following work plan describes the services to be provided to Lockwood,
Andrews and Newman, Inc. and Walsh/Freese & Nichols, Inc. for the Dixie
Farm Road project; a 1,000' wide mapping strip in the City of Pearland, Texas.
ADS shall provide all digital data in the format specified by Lockwood, Andrews
and Newman, Inc. and Walsh/Freese & Nichols, Inc. All data provided will be
compatible with Lockwood, Andrews and Newman, Inc. and Walsh/Freese &
Nichols, Inc.'s computer hardware and software.
Digital mapping will include the following aspects:
• Obtain new aerial photography
• Perform analytical aerotriangulation required for digital mapping
• Perform 1"= 50' scale digital planimetric mapping
• Perform digital terrain model (DTM) mapping
• Develop ecited 1' contours from digital terrain model (DTM) mapping
TECHNICAL PLAN OF OPERATION
1.0 Aerial Photography
New black -and -white aerial photography will be obtained with a Zeiss RMK
TOP 15 calibrated precision aerial mapping camera. The camera is equipped
with forward motion compensation (FMC) and GPS interface with Trimble
4000SSE receiver. Aerial photography will be obtained at an altitude of
approximately 1,500' AMT (above mean terrain) for digital mapping. The scale
of photography will be 1:3,000.
2.0 Ground Control
Lockwood, Andrews and Newman, Inc. and Walsh/Freese & Nichols, Inc shall
provide control information required for the preparation of the proposed
mapping.
3.0 Analytical Aerotriangulation
Full analytical aerotriangulation is necessary to extend control throughout
project photography for digital mapping.
Selection of photogrammetric points for control extension will be performed
with strict adherence to rigid geometric and photogrammetric principles. State-
of-the-art instruments will be used to permanently mark the points on
Work Plan

diapositives. Measurements will be made on Zeiss P-3 Planicomp analytical
stereoplotters.
Several computer programs will be run to perform data analysis and data
refinement tasks prior to obtaining final results. These computer programs allow
us to detect, isolate, and evaluate the contribution of all measurements to the
final results.
Following data analysis and refinement, ADS will perform a simultaneous least
square block adjustment of all measurements to obtain the final results. The
block adjustment combines the mathematical constraints of the colinearity
equations with rigorous statistical analysis to ensure accurate results.
4_0 Digital Data Collection For Planimetric Features
Digital data will be collected at 1"= 50 scale for planimetric features that are
identifiable on, or interpretable from the aerial photographs. Features to be
collected for this scale planimetric mapping shall include the following;
buildings, roads, railroads, drainage features, bridges, culverts, fences,
driveways, poles, sidewalks, individual trees, fire hydrants, manholes, and catch
basins. Digital data will be collected for the specified area. Digital planimetric
data will be provided in both AutoCAD and MicroStation format.
Stereo compilation will be performed with Zeiss P-3 Planicomp, first order, fully
analytical stereoplotters equipped with a digital mapping system including
superimposition for on-line completeness and checking data accuracy. All
stereo -compiled data will be collected directly from stereoplotters.
5.0 Digital Terrain Model (DTM) Development
All digital terrain model (DTM) files will be developed using Zeiss P-3
Planicomp analytical stereoplotters. DTM will be developed using the specified
breakline random point method. Profile distances will be based on the elevation
differential and complexity of terrain. Data points along the profiles are
collected as the stereoplotter operator maintains a consistent reference to the
ground surface. The points are collected as the delta elevation changes by a pre -
specified amount, usually equivalent to the particular mapping scale, or at a
distance equal to a pre -determined grid spacing. DTM data will be collected in a
manner that will accurately depict the terrain and will meet or exceed specified
accuracy requirements for maps with 1' contour intervals. DTM data will be
provided in specified format to be used with AutoCAD or Microstation. All files
will be labeled and delivered on CD-ROM.
6_0 Edited Digital Contours
ADS will develop 1' contour intervals from DTM data. Contours will be
generated using Terramodel software. A triangular irregular network (TIN) will
be developed using both the collected breaklines and mass points. From this
TIN, the contours will be determined and cartographic editing will be
Work Plan
Page -3-
performed. Edited contours will be provided in AutoCAD and MicroStation
format.
7.0 Digital Orthophoto Development
The following process will be used to produce digital orthophotos for the
specified area:
1. Diapositives are produced on high -resolution transparent film
under "clean darkroom" conditions.
2. The diapositives are scanned using a calibrated photogrammetric
scanner to produce digital image files.
Prior to orthophoto correction, the scanned images are checked on
a workstation for completeness, cleanliness, and image quality.
After quality is ascertained, ADS will complete the following steps
using a rigorous "pixel -by -pixel" computation method process:
3. Interior orientation is performed whereby calibrated image fiducial
marks are measured to establish a photo coordinate system.
4. Exterior orientation is performed, whereby coordinates and angles
representing camera position and attitude (exterior orientation) are
determined by either aerotriangulation or the Church method of
space resection. The exterior orientation facilitates transforming
the photo coordinates to ground coordinates.
5. Differential rectification is performed using an algorithm (that
utilizes an elevation model in conjunction with the exterior
orientation to correct displacement of ground features) to resample
the image producing a geo-referenced orthophoto.
6. Each digital orthophoto image is checked for accuracy on a
workstation.
7. ADS will deliver digital data in a format compatible with
Lockwood, Andrews and Newman, Inc. and Walsh/Freese &
Nichols, Inc.'s computer system. Orthophoto image files will be
geographically referenced and delivered in format, ready to be
displayed. The output pixel size will be .25', as specified by
Lockwood, Andrews and Newman, Inc. and Walsh/Freese &
Nichols, Inc.

Re: Dixie Farm Road Widening
SH 35 to Beamer Road
Dear Mehran:
Phone: 281-485-2404
Fax: 281-485-4322
In response to your request, we are pleased to present this proposal to pro-
vide engineering services for the Dixie Farm Road Widening project. The en-
gineering services are to include hydrologic and hydraulic modeling, drainage
impact analysis, and the determination of detention requirements.
Background Information
Based on the information you provided, we understand that the Walsh/Freese
and Nichols (W/FN) and Lockwood, Andrews & Newnam, Inc. (LAN) joint venture
has been selected to design the Dixie Farm Road Widening project. The design
will conform to TxDOT standards and will result in a 4-lane divided/undivided
roadway. We understand that the approximate 5-mile roadway segment will
cross five streams including Cowart Creek, Mary's Creek Bypass, Mary's Creek,
Clear Creek, and Mud Gully. These streams will serve as drainage outfall
points for the roadway drainage systems. Each of the bridge structures, ex-
cept the Clear Creek bridge, will be modified as a part of the project.
The purpose of our analysis will be to identify hydrologic and/or hydraulic
impacts attributable to the project at the outfall locations and within the
watershed upstream/downstream of the project location. These impacts may in-
clude increases in peak discharge flowrates, increases in water surface ele-
vations, and a loss of flood plain storage volume. If impacts are identi-
fied, recommendations for mitigation will be provided including detention re-
quirements.
Proposed Work Items
In order to accomplish the purpose of the analysis, we propose to perform the
following work items:
1. Data Collection/Review - We will collect, organize, and review information
needed to perform the analysis. It is assumed that HEC-1 and HEC-2 models
already exist and are available for each of the five streams. This effort
will include:
• Obtaining existing HEC-1 and HEC-2 models for the five streams
• Coordination with TxDOT, City of Pearland, the Brazoria County
Drainage District, and the HCFCD on available data and analysis con-
straints

e-mail: rdodson@dodson-hydro.com web site: www.dodson-hydro.com
Mr. Bavarian 08/14/00 2 of 3
• Field Reconnaissance
• Collecting other project -specific information
Project -specific information will include schematics, bridge schematics,
plan and profile information for the proposed roadway, roadway cross -
sections, drainage areas contributing to the outfall locations, survey in-
formation at the stream crossings, etc. It is anticipated that project -
specific information will be provided to us from the WEI-LAN Joint Ven-
ture.
2. Pre -Project Analysis - The purpose of this task will be to utilize avail-
able information to represent the streams, from a hydrologic and hydraulic
standpoint, as they exist prior to the proposed roadway and bridge modifi-
cations. The result of this task will serve as the basis of comparison in
the identification of project impacts. This task will include the deter-
mination of peak discharges contributing to outfall locations before road-
way widening using the rational formula, updating the HEC-1 and HEC-2 mod-
els (if required) to more accurately describe pre -project conditions, and
defining flood plain and floodway conditions relative to the proposed pro-
ject. These tasks will be performed for each of the five stream cross-
ings.
3. Post -Project Analysis - This analysis will be similar to the task above
except it will modify the previous analysis as required to reasonably rep-
resent conditions after project construction. As described above, it will
address peak discharges contributing to the outfall locations and HEC-1
and HEC-2 models refinements for each of the five stream crossings.
4. Identify Impacts - A comparison between the post -project analysis and pre -
project analysis will be performed to identify and quantify adverse im-
pacts. Increases in peak discharges, increases in water surface profiles,
volume of lost flood plain storage, and floodway encroachments will be de-
fined to the degree needed to prepare mitigation recommendations. This
task will be performed for each of the five stream crossings.
Mitigation Recommendations - Since the magnitude of project impacts (if
any) are unknown, it is difficult to predict the level of effort required
to develop a mitigation plan. However, general recommendations can be
provided that should address most common situations. The
task will be to offer suggestions regarding:
• Location, size, and general configuration
fall structure
• Location and approximate
gation
• Modifications
energy losses
Mitigation recommendations will be provided for each of the five
crossings. More complex solutions and the evaluation of a number
ternatives may require additional work to that proposed herein.
6. Documentation - We will prepare a letter report documenting our analysis.
It will include a description of methods, a presentation of key parameters
used in the analysis, a summary of the findings, and project recommenda-
tions. The report will include exhibits and be prepared in a format suit-
able for TxDOT review. Six copies of the final report will be provided.
This task includes coordination with TxDOT, the City of Pearland, the Bra-

Re: Wetlands Delineation and USACE Pre -construction Notification
Dixie Farm Road Expansion
Pearland, Texas
CCI Proposal Number: 00PR-1055R3
Dear Mr. Bavarian:
Corrigan Consulting, Inc. is pleased to propose our services to delineate wetlands for the Dixie
Farm Road expansion project. Wetland areas, present at the bridge crossings, will be impacted
during the construction project. These areas were determined to fall under a Nationwide Permit
(NWP) 14, which requires filing a Pre -construction Notification (PCN) with the U.S. Army
Corps of Engineers (USACE). WFN-LAN Joint Venture has requested Corrigan Consulting,
Inc. to conduct a wetlands delineation and obtain all environmental permits in order to meet the
USACE and Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) requirements.
In addition, the right-of-way (ROW) on the south side of Dixie Farm Road between Beamer
Road and Mud Gulley may be impacted by the Brio Refining Superfund Site. Since the Brio
Site Task Force has agreed to excavate the soil in this area and replace the soil with clean fill, it
will only be necessary to perform verification sampling after the excavation and, based on
those results, to develop a worker health and safety plan for the construction activities. As
required by TxDOT, WFN-LAN Joint Venture has requested Corrigan Consulting, Inc. to
conduct the sampling and prepare the worker health and safety plan. In addition, once the
engineering design for the bridge at Mud Gulley is completed, we can provide the necessary
consulting regarding hazardous materials for the construction work in this area.
Item 1: Project Coordination and Review
Since the original completion of the field work in 1996 and preparation of the Environmental
Assessment (EA) document, the NWP 14 has been modified and may undergo further changes.
Therefore, at the onset of this project, Corrigan Consulting, Inc. will review the NWP 14
requirements and verify the applicability to this project. In addition, previous file information
dating back to 1995 will be reviewed. An internal kick-off meeting will be scheduled to review
pertinent project data, project goals, and schedule. Corrigan Consulting, Inc. staff will
coordinate with Walsh/Freese and Nichols, Inc. (Walsh) on a weekly basis to provide status
reports. Walsh will be responsible for providing a current base map prior to the project kick-
off.
CORRIGAN CONSULTING, INC.
Item 2: Field Survey and Wetlands Delineation
During the field work, we will verify that conditions along the roadway meet NWP 14 criteria.
We will delineate the wetlands within the future right-of-way at the bridge crossings using the
routine field method from the 1987 "Corps of Engineers Wetland Delineation Manual"
(Technical Report Y-87-1).
Item 3: Document Preparation and Pre -Application Consultation
Corrigan Consulting, Inc. will conduct a Pre -Application Consultation with the USACE and
other regulatory agencies at the next available Joint Processing Meeting to discuss the existing
conditions and the proposed action in order to ascertain the best permitting approach. Results
of the Consultation will dictate whether a PCN will be used or an Individual Permit.
Upon reviewing the information obtained during the field survey, a report will be prepared in
the format of the USACE PCN, and will include the following items:
• A brief description of the methods employed;
• A map of the delineated wetland areas including the location and dimensions of the
wetlands as verified by land survey. Walsh Surveying will be responsible for
completing the surveying and providing a map with the surveyed wetlands;
• A map showing site boundaries on a USGS Topographic Quadrangle;
• A map showing the site boundaries on a USFWS National Wetland Inventory Map;
• A map showing the site boundaries on a NRCS Soil Survey Map;
• A table giving the estimated area, wetland type, and our opinion on mitigation ratio
for each delineated wetland; and
• Appendices containing wetland data sheets and a photo log.
For the purposes of this proposal, it is assumed that the only wetland impacts will be at the
bridge crossings, which should qualify under NWP 14. Corrigan Consulting, Inc. will prepare
and submit the PCN required for NWP 14 and will follow up with the USACE to ensure that a
response is obtained. Although not anticipated, if an individual permit application were
required, an additional scope of work would be necessary.
Item 4: Brio Site ROW Verification Sampling & Worker Health & Safety
Corrigan Consulting, Inc. will perform verification sampling after the Brio Site Task Force has
excavated the soil along the ROW on the south side of Dixie Farm Road. A site -specific work
plan and health and safety plan will be prepared prior to the sampling. A random sampling
program will be developed including 10 soil samples (0.0 to 2.0 foot composite samples).
Samples will be analyzed for volatile organic constituents and semi -volatile organic
constituents. All decontamination wastewater will be containerized for off -site disposal. A
report including a worker health and safety program will be prepared for delivery to TxDOT
prior to the construction activities.
P 0 Box 99 • Seabrook, Texas 77586-0099 • (281) 474-7455
CORRIGAN CONSULTING, INC.
Although not anticipated, if any of the samples contain concentration of constituents above the
worker safety standards, we will coordinate with you and with the Brio Site Task Force to
conduct spot remediation as needed. For the purpose of this proposal, it is assumed that this
will not be required and that any additional sampling would be conducted as an additional
scope of work.
Upon completing the Mud Gulley bridge design, we can assist you to address the hazardous
materials issues. For the purpose of this proposal, we have included 24 hours of time for this

"Revised" Traffic Engineering Proposal
Dear Mr. Bavarian:
TEDSI Infrastructure Group (TEDSI) appreciates the opportunity to submit this "revised"
Lump Sum Proposal to Walsh/Freese and Nichols, Inc. and Lockwood, Andrews & Newnam,
Inc., Joint Venture (WFN-LAN), to perform traffic -engineering services required in
conjunction with the Dixie Farm Rd. widening, from State Highway 35 (SH 35) to Beamer Rd.
This proposal is based on our understanding of the Scope of Services as stated in your letter
dated November 10, 1999 and our meeting with representatives of the Texas Department of
Transportation (TxDOT).
The traffic engineering services includes the Final Design Service only. The Contract Phase
and Construction Phase are not included with this proposal. The Scope of Services and
associated fees are identified in Attachment "A".
PROJECT UNDERSTANDING
WFN-LAN Joint Venture have been selected by the TxDOT and the City of Pearland (COP) as
the consulting engineering company to provide the necessary engineering design services for the
proposed widening of Dixie Farm Road from SH 35 to Beamer Road. TEDSI has been assigned
certain traffic engineering tasks to be performed under a sub -consultant contract with WFN-
LAN. These tasks include Traffic Data Collection, Traffic Engineering Analysis and Traffic
Signal design.
This project will require some re -alignment and the acquisition of additional rights -of -way to
widen the existing pavement to a four -lane (4) boulevard section. It is our understanding that
TxDOT will be providing a portion of the cost of the reconstruction of this road. As such, all
design will be in accordance with TxDOT standards, and will be prepared in English Units.

CONTRACT FOR LANDSCAPE ARCHITECTURAL SERVICES BETWEEN
VERNON G. HENRY & ASSOCIATES, INC. (CONSULTANT)
AND WEI-LAN, JOINT VENTURE (CLIENT)
L PROJECT
The project is Dixie Farm Road Widening from State Highway 35 to the Pearland city limit.
The project is divided into two parts. The first part extends from State Highway 35 to Clear
Creek, a distance of approximately 19,500 feet. The second part extends from Clear Creek
to the Pearland city limit, a distance of approximately 2,200 feet.
The Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) and the City of Pearland are participants
in funding the project, with TxDOT funding the largest portion. The project will be bid as a
