City of Elk River -HRA – Main and Gates Redevelopment; Elk River, Minnesota <br />AET Proposal No. P-0001445 <br />April 12, 2021 <br />Page 3 of 4 <br /> <br />American Engineering Testing, Inc. <br /> <br />We will establish $3,000.00 as a not-to-exceed lump sum fee for the geotechnical services outlined <br />above. In the event the scope of our services needs to be revised (for example, additional or deeper <br />borings/soundings, or additional field or laboratory testing), we will review such scope adjustments and <br />the associated fees with you and receive your approval before proceeding. Our fees will be in effect until <br />April 30, 2021, after which they will be subjected to review and possible escalation. <br /> <br />Minnesota Department of Health Fees <br />Effective July 1, 2019, the Minnesota Department of Health (MDH) has changed the borehole sealing and <br />notification requirements. For sites where borings are drilled to a depth of 15 feet or deeper, all licensed <br />drilling companies are required by law to grout the boreholes upon completion. For borings 25 feet in <br />depth or deeper all licensed drilling companies must submit written notification to the MDH prior to <br />drilling along with a fee of $75. Projects that span multiple properties will require multiple notifications. <br />The MDH also requires that a Sealing Record be submitted to the MDH, with a copy to you, after the <br />borings are completed. The above fee estimate for our geotechnical services includes the MDH fee for the <br />proposed scope of drilling; however, because subsurface conditions can change between borings, the final <br />MDH fee (including an administrative charge of $65 per notification) will be added, if necessary, to our <br />final invoice to you. <br /> <br />The MDH Notification and Sealing Record requires the Property Owner name and mailing address (the <br />Property Owner will also receive a copy of the Sealing Record). Please verify this information below. <br /> <br />Property Owner’s name/company name: _______________________________________________ <br /> <br />Property Owner’s mailing address: ___________________________________________________ <br /> <br />Environmental Concerns: <br />This proposal is presented for engineering services to evaluate the structural properties of the soil at the <br />specified site.
