RE: Limited Source Removal: City of Seward Shop
Dear Mr. Schoessler:
R&M Consultants, Inc. (R&M) appreciates the opportunity to provide this estimate for the
above referenced work. Our Earth Sciences Department consists of geologists, geotechnical
engineers, and environmental specialists with extensive experience evaluating
environmental site conditions as well as the regulations and standards that outline Phase II
investigations and limited source removals. The scope of work and fee estimate provided
herein is based on our phone conversations in 2021/2022 and results of the August 2021
field investigation.
SCOPE OF WORK
We understand that the City of Seward is required to continue assessment of the
environmental impacts associated with the City of Seward Shop (Shop) located at 434 Sixth
Avenue in Seward, Alaska to meet Alaska Department of Environmental Conservation
(ADEC) requirements. ADEC was notified of the regulated substances release on 27 October
2021 and assigned the case Spill Number 21239924202. ADEC requested a corrective action
plan on 28 October 2021. R&M prepared a sampling and analysis plan (work plan) to meet
the corrective action plan requirement under a separate authorization for ADEC review and
approval. Actions covered by the work plan include a Limited Source Removal and an
Expanded Phase II Investigation, if required based on the Limited Source Removal. The
Expanded Phase II Investigation is not proposed in this cost estimate but was included in
the work plan so that another work plan effort is not necessary in the event it is required by
ADEC. R&M will team with Pioneer Earthworks and Restoration to perform limited source
removal services and to perform waste transport and disposal services.
Limited Source Removal
The documented release of petroleum hydrocarbons was documented to be soil staining
where equipment is stored near a i,000-gallon aboveground storage tank (AST) To address
this location, we propose limited excavation to remove stained soil associated with soil
staining. This would be followed by excavation clearance sampling to determine if
contamination identified by the limited site investigation (LSI) has been removed to below
ADEC cleanup levels. An Expanded Phase II Investigation may be required by ADEC if
excavation clearance sampling indicates more extensive contamination than expected. If
necessary, the Expanded Phase II Investigation would require an additional field effort and
associated costs not included herein.
The Expanded Phase II Investigation will include development of a work plan for ADEC The
proposed chemical testing suite will be reduced based on results from the LSI to include
volatile organic compounds (VOC), diesel -range organics (DRO), residual -range organics
(RRO), and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH). Monitoring wells will be surveyed by
R&M to determine horizontal and vertical location to meet ADEC accuracy requirements.
Mr. Schoessler

R&M proposes to begin work described herein immediately upon notice to proceed, dependent on subcontractor
availability, tentatively planned for summer 2022, and draft reporting approximately two months following the
completion of field work (laboratory data can take two to four weeks to be completed). ADEC review and
comment response process for the draft report are expected to take approximately 6 weeks following receipt of
those documents. Please contact me should you have any questions regarding our proposal.
