Conditions: Unit rates presented on this fee schedule are for routinely performed geotechnical laboratory tests. Numerous nmn
earth material physical tests can be performed in our geotechnical mboramriea, including rock ore, soil cement and soil lime
mixture tests. Tests not listed can maquoted upon request.
Prices are based on the assumption that samples are uncontaminated and do not contain heavy metals,acids.
volatile organics which can be measured by an organic vapor analyzer or photoionization detector with a concentration greater than
ooperts-nor-mi/lionhppm>. Quoted testing fees are based on the assumption that nnprotective clothing will uerequired mhandle
samples. If Level D protective clothing will be required during handling of samples(as defined in the Federal CFR Part 1910.120),
then a 40%increase in fees presented in this schedule will be applied. Level C protective clothing will be a 60%increase in fees.
Converse will not handle samples that require either Level B or Level A protection in our geotechnical laboratories. Contaminated
samples will be returned to the client. Uncontaminated samples will be disposed of 30 days after presentation of test results. The
client must disclose the source of samples. Samples imported from out of state will be incinerated after testing,in accordance with
requirements of the United States Department of Agriculture. Soil samples obtained within the State of California currently
designated quarantine areas will also be incinerated in accordance with the requirement of the State of California, Department of
Food and Agriculture. Division of Plant Industry, Pest Exclusion. A $5.00 incineration fee will be added to each sample that is
required to be incinerated in accordance with State and Federal law.
Test results requiring plots will be presented in a publishable format generated from computer programs. Otherwise, raw test
numbers will be presented. A minimum laboratory fee of$50.00 will be charged to present and mail test results. Beyond the
standard U. S. Mail delivery, specialized transmittal will be charged at additional cost (e.g., Federal Express, UPS, etc.).
Geotechnical testing does not include engineering and/or geologic review and analysis. Typical turn-around for geotechnical
laboratory testing is two weeks(or roughly ten working days). To expedite test tum-around to five working days,a 50%increase in
the fees in this schedule will be applied. Many geotechnical tests require at least one week to perform in accordance with the ASTM
or other standard specifications. Fees presented in this schedule for relatively undisturbed direct shear, consolidation or expansion
pressure tests are based on the assumption that 22-inch-diameter(2.416-inch inside diameter)brass ring samples will be provided
to the geotechnical laboratory for testing. Remolded specimens will be compacted in standard 2.5-inch outside diameter brass rings
for direct shear,consolidation and expansion pressure tests. All fees presented in this schedule are based on the assumption that
the client will deliver samples to our laboratory at no additional cost to Converse.
Materials Testing Services
Compensation for laboratory testing services will be based on rates in accordance with this schedule. Costs of tests not on this
schedule will be by quote and/or in accordance with our current hourly fee schedule,

EXHIBIT "B"
WORKERS' COMPENSATION INSURANCE CERTIFICATION
FOR GEOTECHNICAL SERVICES
Every employer, except the State, shall secure the payment of compensation in one or more of the
following way
(a) By being insured against liability to pay compensation in one or more insurer duly
