It is assumed that subsurface investigations and geotechnical engineering services are not required for this project. 3. It is assumed that an application for Soil Erosion and Sediment Control plan certification is not required for this project. 4. Any existing easements are to be supplied by the Township for incorporation in the right-of-way Survey. 5. Investigations and construction considerations relating to the detection, remediation, or mitigation of regulated materials within the site soils are specifically excluded from the scope of work. 6. NJDEP FHA Determination, Freshwater Wetland Delineation, and/or related permits are not anticipated and not included. Should an application for any NJDEP permits be required, this proposal shall be amended. 7. Construction stakeout services are excluded. 8. It is acknowledged that the RFP requires a lump sum fee for part-time inspection, which has been provided. GPI typically invoices for construction administration (including inspection) on an hourly basis, allowing the client to position themselves for cost savings in cases where the contractor’s efficiencies result in a lesser inspection effort than assumed in the proposal.
