McGill A S S O C I A T E S ENGINEERING • PLANNING • FINANCE. March 24, 2017 Mr. John Crumpton, Manager Lee County 408 Summit Drive Sanford, North Carolina 27331 RE: Proposal for Professional Services Colon Area Water Lines Extension Lee County, North Carolina Dear Mr. Cnunpton: Pursuant to your request, McGill Associates (McGill) is pleased to provide this proposal to Lee County to provide professional services for the above referenced project. Based on our recent meeting and my follow-up conversation with the County's Environmental Health Department, we understand this project to involve an extension of the City of Sanford's existing water distribution system to serve residences in the Colon -Osgood area that are experiencing elevated levels of hexavalent chromium in their private drinking water wells. As a first step, we understand our services to include contacting all "Priority One" residents (total of 22) listed on the "Affected Private Well Property Owners" spreadsheet and map that were previously e-mailed to me by County staff to confirm which residents are interested in being connected to the City's distribution system. From this process, McGill will generate a final listing of properties to receive service as part of this project for review and approval by the County. Based on our preliminary analysis, water main extensions within North Carolina Department of Transportation (NCDOT) right-of-way appear feasible on several roads within the project area (Amos Bridges Road, Old Colon Road, and a portion of Birchard Road), while extensions along private roads (Tabitha Lane, Hawkinberry Lane, and the end of Birchard Road) will occur on private property. As a result, McGill will work closely with the County's preferred attorney to pursue permanent and temporary easements as necessary prior to construction. Based on our understanding of the project scope, McGill proposes to provide the following Scope of Basic Services: Existing Residence Survey Phase — To Be Performed By Martin McGiA, Inc. 1. Develop a strategy for contacting the 22 property owners provided on the County's Affected Private Well Property Owners spreadsheet to confirm their interest in connecting to the City's water system. This strategy will include a combination of mailers, phone calls, and site visits as necessary. It may be necessary to have a County Law Enforcement Representative accompany us door to door in some areas for safety purposes. E n g i n e e r i n g .
