Kemp Excavating, Inc. of Fort Worth, Texas for the CeII 48 Liner and Drainage Improvements at the City of Port Arthur Landfill Base Bid and Add Alternate 1 for the not to exceed amount of $1,197,523. BACKGROUND: The City landfill has reached the point where construction of the next cell at the landfill is required. Accordingly, the City contracted with SCS Engineers of Bedford, Texas to design the CeII 48 construction as the Base Bid and for two add alternates. Add Alternate 1 is for repair of the north "levee" which needs to be stabilized to support the additional loading required by the construction of Cell 48. Add Alternate 2 is for a detention pond for routing the stormwater off the landfill. The amount of $1,200,000 was included in the FY 2012 -2013 budget to provide for this work. Purchasing advertised in the Port Arthur News and on the City website on 03 February 2013 and on 12 February 2013 with four (4) bids being received and opened on 06 March. The bids were evaluated by City staff and SCS Engineers with the one from L. D. Kemp Excavating, Inc. determined to be the lowest and most responsible for the Base Bid and Add Alternate 1. The available funding is insufficient for Add Alternate 2.

Mr. Ross Blackketter City of Port Arthur 444 4th Street Port Arthur, TX 77640 Subject: City of Port Arthur Landfill, TCEQ Permit No. MSW -1815A Cell 48 Liner and Drainage Improvements Project Bid Evaluation and Tabulation Dear Mr. Blackketter: SCS Engineers (SCS) is pleased to provide the City of Port Arthur (City) our bid evaluation and tabulation for the Cell 48 Liner and Drainage Improvements Project. This bid evaluation is based on the bid proposals provided to SCS by the City following the bid opening on March 6, 2013 for the referenced project. As indicated on page 27 of the General Specifications (revised in Addendum 2) of the City's bid documents, the City will award this project to the responsive, responsible bidder, who submits the best value bid. As you know the project was bid with several options, including Primary Bid — Cell 48 Liner Construction, Add Alternate 1 — Levee Improvements, and Add Alternate 2 — Levee Improvements and North Detention Basin. The bid documents were structured to allow the City to select one of the add alternates at their discretion, since Add Alternate 2 includes the work associated with Add Alternate 1 — Levee Improvements plus the North Detention Basin. Based on discussions with the City, and due to the City's budget of $1.2 million, this bid evaluation is based on the City's desire to select the Primary Bid (related to Cell 48 Liner Construction) plus Add Alternate 1 (related to Levee Improvements). Therefore, the following is a summary of our bid tabulation associated with the Primary Bid plus Add Alternate 1: • A total of four bids were received by the City at the bid opening. The four bids for Primary Bid plus Add Alternate 1 ranged from $1,197,523.00 (low bid) to $2,103,343.50 (high bid). We have attached the bid tabulation table to this letter, which summarizes the unit rates, totals per bid item, and totals for the Primary Bid and Add Alternate 1. Additionally, we have color coded each bid item in the bid tabulation, with "yellow" representing low bid and "green" representing high bid on each respective bid item. • LD Kemp Excavating, Inc. (LD Kemp) of Fort Worth, Texas is the apparent responsive, responsible low bidder on the project, when accounting for the selection of the Primary Bid and Add Alternate 1, as described above. Although, LD Kemp has a mathematical M \Projeots\PIArthur\16212058.01 Cell 48 Liner Design, Permitting, & Bid Suppor8Task 46 - Bid Ser\rces\Bid Tabulation LO32213Pt Art_Ccll 48 Liner plus_Bid Evaluation.docn Mr. Ross Blackketter March 22, 2013 Page 2 error in their bid when accounting for the allowance on the project; the bid documents were developed such that the allowance is a set dollar amount of $100,000. Therefore, when correcting this mathematical error, LD Kemp remains low bid for the referenced bid selection option. LD Kemp tendered a low bid of $1,197,523.00 for Primary Bid and Add Alternate 1. • LD Kemp has landfill cell and liner construction experience, and meets the minimum qualifications required by the bid documents. • Additionally, LD Kemp included a bid bond in the amount of 5% of their bid, and provided all other required forms /documents with their bid (i.e., Instructions to Bidders [including tax identification number]), Affidavit, Conflicts of Interest Questionnaire, and Receipt Verifications for Addendums 1 and 2. • SCS has contacted references provided by LD Kemp, and their references gave good recommendations for their work on the respective landfill cell construction projects. Additionally, SCS' Dallas/Fort Worth office has had good direct experience with this firm in the past. Based on our review of the submitted bids, LD Kemp appears to be the responsive, responsible low bidder for the City of Port Arthur Landfill, Cell 48 Liner and Drainage Improvements project for Primary Bid plus Add Alternate 1. If you have any questions or need additional information regarding our bid evaluation, please feel free to contact us. Sincerely, Nr- Ryan Kuntz, P.E. Kevin D.

Bidder must agree to commence work on or before a date to be specified in a written "Notice to Proceed" issued by the CITY and to fully complete the project within the following number of calendar days: • 90 calendar days for all specified work under the Primary Bid (this time of completion will be required regardless of which add alternate is selected by the CITY); and either, • An additional 30 calendar days if the CITY selects Add Alternate No. 1, for a total of 120 calendar days for the Primary Bid and Add Alternate No. 1; or • An additional 60 calendar days if the CITY selects Add Alternate No. 2, for a total of 150 calendar days for the Primary Bid and Add Alternate No. 2. Failure of the CONTRACTOR to complete the Work within the time allowed will result in damages being sustained by the CITY. It is agreed and understood that it would be impractical and extremely difficult to ascertain the amount of actual damage the CITY might sustain by reason of breach of the agreement; therefore the amount stated is expressly agreed upon as liquidated damages and is not intended by the parties to be a penalty. As such, liquidated damages of $1,000.00 per day will be imposed for each calendar day the service delivery date is exceeded. Issued-for-Bidding 33 January 2013 By submittal of Bid on the project, and by execution of the Contract by the CONTRACTOR awarded the project shall constitute an agreement by the CITY and CONTRACTOR that $1,000.00 per day is the minimum value of the costs and actual damage caused by the failure of the CONTACTOR to complete the Work within the allotted time. Such sum is liquidated damages and shall not be construed as a penalty, and may be deducted from payments due the Contractor if such delay occurs. CELL PHONE OR PAGER: The Contractor must have a working cell phone or pager available Monday through Friday from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. so that the City will be able to contact the contractor. WAGES & SALARIES: Attention is particularly called to the requirement of not paying less than the prevailing Davis Bacon Related Acts (DBRA) wage rates specified in the Contract Documents. These rates are minimums to be paid during the life of the contract. It is therefore the responsibility of the Bidder to inform themselves as to local labor conditions. Attention is called to the requirement that employees and applicants for employment are not discriminated against because of race, color, religion, sex, age or national origin. PERFORMANCE AND PAYMENT BOND REQUIREMENTS: Per Government Code Chapter 2253. Bonds. If the contract exceeds fifty thousand dollars ($50,000) a payment bond is required. If the contract exceeds one hundred thousand dollars ($100,000) a performance bond is required.

The Contractor's questions are provided below, followed by SCS Engineer's response in bold/italics. 1. Is the owner's surveyor providing the as -built drawings on subgrade and protective cover for the SLER and GLER reports to the State? Once contractor's surveyor says the surfaces are to grade, owner's surveyor will then as -built them and prepare drawings for the owner? The first part of the questions is correct, the second part of the question is incorrect as indicated below. The owner's surveyor will provide certification surveys and drawings for the subgrade and protective cover, as well as as -built panel layout drawings for the geomembrane indicating the location of seams, repairs, and destructive seam test locations. However, these are not topographic drawings. Consistent with Section 01052, Part 1.4, the Contractor shall provide the Owner with surveys for record (as- built) drawings and measurement of all quantities for payment These are topographic as -built drawings prepared by the Contractor's surveyor, as described in Part 1.5 of this section. Please see this section for all required items that the Contractor's surveyor shall develop topographic as -built surveys, including RPLS sealed hard - copies as well as electronic files. 2. Bid Item No. AA2 -9 asks for 24 -inch CMP, but constructions plans show 36 -inch CMP. The construction plans are accurate, and the required CMP diameter should be 36- inch. Therefore, the Bid Sheet and Section 01025 Measurement and Payment has been revised to indicate that 36 -inch Smooth -Lined CMP shall be provided for this bid item. 3. The dimensions for the sumps in Section B -B' on Drawing 9 indicate "varies." Can you provide actual dimensions? The referenced cross- section transverses the underdrain and leachate collection sump in an east to west direction. As shown on Drawings 4 and 5, the underdrain sump is trapezoidal and the leachate collection sump is triangular. Therefore, moving north along the sump centerline, the east/west dimension varies. It is recommended that the Contractor review Drawings 4 and 5 to get a better understanding of the actual sizes and/or dimensions of these two sumps. M:\Pr jects\PlArlhm \162I2O58.01 Cell 48 Line Design, Permitting, & Bid Support \Task 46 -Bid Services\Add I\Cell 48 Liner - Addend= I.docx 4. Do the geosynthetic (geomembrane, GCL, geocomposite, etc) quantities take into account surface area? No. Please see Section 01025 — Measurement and Payment, Part 1.1.E, which states "The Contractor shall note that all area quantities (square feet, square yard, etc.) are based on horizontal projections of the area (i.e., not surface area). Measurement and payment for such items will be based on installed quantities within the specified horizontal areas or limits, which will be verified from as -built surveys (see Section 01052) of the completed Work, as specified in this Section. As such, measurement and payment will based on horizontal projections of the area (i.e., not on surface area)." This statement pertains to geosynthetics, as well as any other bid item measured by area. Therefore, the Contractor should take into account surface area within their unit rates as necessary.

Said security shall be submitted with the understanding that it shall guarantee that the Bidder will not withdraw his bid within sixty (60) days after the date of the opening of the bids; that if a bid is accepted, the bidder will enter into a formal Contract with the CITY, furnish bonds and insurance as may be required and commence work at the specified time, and that in the event of the withdrawal of said bid within said period, or the failure to enter into said Contract, furnish said bonds and insurance and commence work within the time specified, the Bidder shall be liable to the CITY for the difference between the amount specified in the bid in the amount for which the CITY may otherwise procure the required work. Checks of all except the three lowest responsible Bidders will be returned when award is made; when the Contract is executed, the checks of the two remaining unsuccessful bidders will be returned; that of the successful Bidder be returned when formal Contract, bonds and insurance are approved, and work has commenced within the time specified. The Bidder to whom the award is made shall execute and return the formal Contract with the CITY and furnish Performance and Payment Bonds and required Insurance Documents within ten (10) days after the prescribed forms are presented to him for signature. Said period will be extended only upon written presentation to the CITY, within said period, of reasons which the sole discretion of the CITY, justify an extension. If said Contract, bonds and insurance Documents are not received by the CITY within said period or if work has not been commenced within the time specified, the CITY may proceed to have the work required by the Plans and Specifications performed by any means at its command, and the bidder shall be liable to the CITY for any excess cost to the CITY over bid amount. Further, the bid guarantee shall be forfeited to the CITY as liquidated damages and Bidder shall be liable to the CITY for an additional amount of five percent (5 %) of the bid amount as liquidated damages without limitation. The CITY, within ten (10) days of receipt of acceptable Performance and Payment bonds, insurance documents and Contract signed by Bidder to whom Contract was awarded, shall sign and return executed duplicate of the Contract to said party. Should the CITY not execute the Contract within such period, the Bidder may, by written Notice to CITY, withdraw his signed Agreement. NOTICE TO PROCEED: Notice to Proceed shall be issued within ten (10) days of the execution of the Contract by CITY. Should there be any reasons why Notice to Proceed cannot be issued within such period, the time may be extended by mutual agreement between CITY and CONTRACTOR. TIME OF COMPLETION AND LIQUIDATED DAMAGES: Timely completion of a project is extremely important to the CITY. Bidder must agree to commence work on or before a 1 Issued-for-Bidding 33 Addendum 1— February 28, 2013 date to be specified in a written "Notice to Proceed" issued by the CITY and to fully complete the project within the following number of calendar days: • 90 calendar days for all specified work under the Primary Bid (this time of completion will be required regardless of which add alternate is selected by the CITY); and either, • An additional 30 calendar days if the CITY selects Add Alternate No. 1, for a total of 120 calendar days for the Primary Bid and Add Alternate No. l; or • An additional 60 calendar days if the CITY selects Add Alternate No. 2, for a total of 150 calendar days for the Primary Bid and Add Alternate No. 2. Failure of the CONTRACTOR to complete the Work within the time allowed will result in damages being sustained by the CITY. It is agreed and understood that it would be impractical and extremely difficult to ascertain the amount of actual damage the CITY might sustain by reason of breach of the agreement; therefore the amount stated is expressly agreed upon as liquidated damages and is not intended by the parties to be a penalty. As such, liquidated damages of $1,000.00 per day will be imposed for each calendar day the service delivery date is exceeded. By submittal of Bid on the project, and by execution of the Contract by the CONTRACTOR awarded the project shall constitute an agreement by the CITY and CONTRACTOR that $1,000.00 per day is the minimum value of the costs and actual damage caused by the failure of the CONTACTOR to complete the Work within the allotted time. Such sum is liquidated damages and shall not be construed as a penalty, and may be deducted from payments due the Contractor if such delay occurs. CELL PHONE OR PAGER: The Contractor must have a working cell phone or pager available Monday through Friday from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. so that the City will be able to contact the contractor. WAGES & SALARIES: Attention is particularly called to the requirement of not paying less than the prevailing Davis Bacon Related Acts (DBRA) wage rates specified in the Contract Documents. These rates are minimums to be paid during the life of the contract. It is therefore the responsibility of the Bidder to inform themselves as to local labor conditions. Attention is called to the requirement that employees and applicants for employment are not discriminated against because of race, color, religion, sex, age or national origin. PERFORMANCE AND PAYMENT BOND REQUIREMENTS: Per Government Code Chapter 2253. Bonds. If the contract exceeds fifty thousand dollars ($50,000) a payment bond is required. If the contract exceeds one hundred thousand dollars ($100,000) a performance bond is required.

The Contractor shall note, as described in Section 02210 — Excavation, Backfill, Fill, and Grading, that it is anticipated that there will be a shortage of onsite soils required for completion of the project (i.e., Engineered Fill, underdrain protective layer, liner protective cover, etc.). It is the Contractor's responsibility to determine the soil balance required for completion of the Work, and the amount of imported soil required from an offsite borrow source. Following bid advertisement, the City has been removing concrete pavement and asphalt millings from within the Cell 48 limits, which has reduced the excavation quantity by an estimated 2,000 cubic yards. Addendum 1 01025 -1 SECTION 01025 MEASUREMENT AND PAYMENT The following are soil balance estimates depending on the add alternate selected by the Owner, which are based on earthwork quantities prior to removal of the concrete pavement and asphalt millings within the Cell 48 limits, as noted above: 1. If Add Alternate No. 1 is selected, it has been estimated that there may be a soil shortage of approximately 4,000 cubic yards. 2. If Add Alternate No. 2 is selected, it has been estimated that there may be a soil shortage of approximately 46,500 cubic yards. The above are only estimates, which represent the potential bank cubic yards that may need to be imported to complete the Primary Bid and the selected add altemate. Neither the Owner nor Engineer guarantees the accuracy of these soil shortage estimates. It is the Contractor's responsibility to perform their own soil balance required for completion of the Work, and estimate the amount of imported soil required from an offsite borrow source. Therefore, the respective unit rates for Engineered Fill shall account for any soil importation required to complete the Work specified herein. PART 2 PRODUCTS Not Used.
