February 10, 2025 PROPOSAL
City of Pearland MUD 1
Attn: Mr. Julian Kelly
2016 Old Alvin Road
Pearland, Texas 77581
Via email: JKelly@pearlandtx.gov
Re: Proposal for Lead and Copper Rule Revised Service Line Inventory: Phase 2 – Field
Investigations for the City of Pearland MUD 1, Texas
EV3479-23150 CO2
Dear Mr. Kelly,
At the request of the City of Pearland (“Client”), LJA Environmental Services, LLC (“LJA”) has
prepared this proposal to provide environmental consulting services for the above-referenced
project.
Scope of Work
LJA proposes to provide Lead & Copper Rule Revised (LCRR) Service Line Inventory (SLI)
Phase 2 – Field Investigations for the Client. A detailed scope of work for this service is provided
in Attachment A.
Cost
LJA proposes to provide the services described in Attachment A to the Client for a fixed fee of
$151,500.00, to be billed on a percent-complete basis.
Extraneous circumstances that could potentially impact this Proposal, including agency
coordination or review, accessibility, unforeseen circumstances, design changes, and state or
federal regulatory changes, may also affect project costs which are not included in this estimate.
This proposal and cost estimate are valid for 90 days.
Schedule
The proposed scope of work is anticipated to be complete within six (6) months of receipt of an
executed proposal. The project completion schedule is the goal of all parties; it does not, however,

Project # EV3479-23150 CO2
February 10, 2025
ATTACHMENT A
City of Pearland MUD 1, Texas within the Public Water System (PWS).
SCOPE OF WORK
LJA proposes to initiate Lead and Copper Rule Revised (LCRR) Service Line Inventory (SLI) Phase
2 – Field Investigations for the Client. Specifically, LJA will investigate service line material types at
meter locations determined to be installed prior to January 1, 1989. It is assumed approximately
1,515 service lines will be required to have investigations on both (system- and customer-owned)
sides of the meters. Therefore, LJA is calculating up to 1,515 connections to be included under
Phase 2 – Field Investigations.
LJA crew(s) will travel to the locations to investigate service line material types on both the public
and private sides of the meter boxes, or as necessary. Crews will inspect the system within the
meter box, and if the material types are not able to be determined, will hand dig an approximate 6-
inch hole on either or both sides of the box to expose the pipe materials. Magnetic and scratch
inspection tests will be completed, photographs taken, data recorded on the online GIS platform,
and the water line will be re-covered with the dig material. Data collected will be utilized for
population into the “Detailed Inventory” tab of the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality
(TCEQ) Service Line Inventory (SLI) for Public Water Systems (RG-593/ Form 20943) to further
complete the service line list. All data will be reviewed for QA/QC. LJA will also provide general
regulatory and compliance management support for the LCRR program throughout the project.
After completion of this Phase, LJA will be able to provide the Client with the locations of galvanized
requiring replacement (GRR) service lines, lead service lines, and any problematic locations not
able to be inspected.
Deliverables will involve the following tasks:
1. A completed draft SLI table, via metadata/attributes within the online mapper;
2. QA/QC of data; and,
3. Provide regulatory and compliance support for the LCRR program.
Assumptions:
1. This proposal assumes all meter locations and lines are accessible. This proposal does not
include additional field efforts that may be required where there are problematic locations,
for example, concrete, fences, homeowner/tenant disapproval, and other obstacles
preventing crews from conducting the investigations. Such locations will be documented
accordingly, and crews would need to return to these sites under a separate scope and
estimate.
2. If necessary, LJA may need a City of Pearland employee to assist with problem areas and/or
where meter box locations cannot be located.
