Slade ATTEST --- Date July 19, 1988 "City ------------- -6- RICHARD C. SLADE 4950 BELLAIRE AVENUE NORTH HOLLYWOOD,CA 9160'7 CONSULTING GROUNDWATER GEOLOGIST (818)506-0418 ATTACHMENT A SCOPE OF WORK PROJECT NO. 1 . ASSESSMENTS AND SITE SELECTIONS, THREE WELLS Essentially, all the following tasks will be performed for each of the three wells (Hog Canyon, Mill Creek and Santa Ana River) to be sited and/or replaced for this project. Task No. 1 - Data Collection and Review. Update existing data base for the environs of each of the three wells. Most emphasis here will be on data for the Mill Creek wells because of considerable data already available for the other two sites. Additional needs include 1986 and later data (water levels, water quality, pumping rates, and Edison data) for the Hog Canyon and Santa Ana River areas. Review USGS reports and applicable reports by others. These new data will be correlated and interwoven with previous water level and water quality maps of the Redlands/ Calimesa/ Yucaipa areas to discern recent trends and to validate previous findings. Task No. 2 - Site Reconnaissance. Perform a site re- connaissance to verify logistical problems, access, etc. , to the various well locations. Other focus areas will concern discharge of fluids from mechanical development and test pumping operations, and the need for noise control and vacuum trucks to collect cuttings and drilling muds ( if any) . Task No. 3 - Hydroceologic Analyses. Prepare requisite hydrogeologic cross sections, and update water level and water quality maps, well location maps and hydrographs to define site- specific groundwater conditions for the environs of each site. The maps will be used to identify such conditions as: a) potential drill depths based on the base of fresh wa- ter; b) groundwater flow directions c) existing water quality, water quality problems and wa- ter quality problem areas near the sites, d) potential aquifer characteristics to be expected at the new well ; A4i 6mm.�r� Scope of Work 2 e) historic fluctuations in non-pumping groundwater levels to assist in defining the maximum expected pumping level in the future wells (also uses Edison data, spe- cific capacity data, and anticipated pumping rates) ; f) continuity and correlation of potential aquifers. Identify mutual drawdown interference criteria for establishing impact on existing wells and spacing requirements between future wells . Some work specific to certain sites is necessary also, as for example, at the Hog Canyon well , it is critical to verify any present quality problems (nitrates, VQC's , DBCP, and corro- sion or encrustation potential ) , or any mechanical problems (such as sanding conditions) in the existing well 2rior to validating the feasibility of and location for the new replacement well . Task No. 4 - Reports. Write, prepare, and draft the preliminary design report text with appropriate graphics to document our analyses, conclusions, and recommendations for each site. Results of our sitings studies will be presented, together with general construction alternatives and information for well depths, diameters, and casings. Task No. 5 - Design Memorandum. provide a memorandum to outline construction guidelines and design criteria, and to summarize the preliminary cost estimates for construction of the three wells. Incorporate memorandum in Task 4 preliminary design report . Task No. 6 - Meetings. Prepare for and attend as many as three meetings with City staff to discuss in-progress find- ings, critical new findings, construction alternatives, and any other items that could affect the work as now envisioned. PROJECT NO. 2 . GROUNDWATER ASSESSMENTS SAN TIMQTEQ LIVE OAK CANYONS For those portions of these canyon areas within the City's sphere of influence ( i .e. , the westerly portions of these canyons) , the following is our proposed scope of work. Task 1 - Basic Data Review. Collect and review basic hydrogeologic and geologic data, and previously published reports that are pertinent to the region. Specific data of interest in- clude: drillers ' logs and electric logs of wells; historic and Scope of Work 3 current water levels and water quality; specific capacity and pump test data; and fault alignments and surface geology. These data are also available from the City, the U. S. Geological Survey, the State Department of Water Resources, the San Bernardino County Flood Control District, Riverside County Flood Control District, and the Yucaipa Valley County Water Dis- trict . Task 2 - Field Reconnaissance. Conduct a field recon- naissance of the canyon areas to identify potential logistical problems that may affect the drilling, constructing, and testing of a new well . Such logistical problems to be considered include property size, nearby land use, location of existing underground and overhead utilities, location of a water supply for the drill rig, and proximity of storm drains to each site. Task 3 - Hydrogeologic Analyses. Provide hydrogeologic evaluation and analyses of the available -geologic and groundwater data collected during this study. Prepare a hydrogeologic map and hydrogeologic sections, together with pertinent water quality contour maps and a water level contour map. If possible with ex- isting data, hydrographs of water level and water quality fluctu- ations will be prepared from available records to assess seasonal and long-term changes in these parameters. Water quality prob- lems and water quality problem areas will be identified, along with any groundwater barriers. Task 4 -7_Retorts. Write and prepare a Draft Report of the investigation, together with supporting tables and maps. Following City reviews, six copies of the Final Report will be issued. The report will be provided with conclusions and recom- mendations regarding the hydrogeologic feasibility of developing potable groundwater by the City from the region and of drilling new water wells. Recommendations for alternative sites will be provided if appropriate. The tentative well depths, construction methods and construction guidelines will be presented. Potential yields and specific capacities of the new wells will be evaluated also. Measures for mitigating water quality problems in these wells (such as high TDS or nitrates) will be presented. Scope of Work 4 Task 5 - Coordination and Meetings Two meetings with City staff are envisioned. These meetings are necessary to main- tain communication and liaison, and to present in-progress find- ings. PROJECT 3. CONSTRUCTION SPECIFICATIONS AND PRECONSTRUCTION AC- TIVITIES Because of potentially unusual and adverse drilling conditions at the Mill Creek well site, and because special equipment may be necessary based on my recent field reconnais- sance of that area, it may not be practically feasible to issue only one set of technical specifications to cover the technical construction items for all three wells. Task I - Technical Specifications. Write and prepare the technical provisions of the well specifications, including details on the construction method and down-hole aquifer isola- tion zone sampling, electric logging, casings and gravel pack, mechanical development, pumping development, and final well test- ing. This information can then be incorporated into the City's "boiler plate" and general provisions for construction for use with the final bid package. Task 2 - Engineer's Estimate. Prepare a detailed cost estimate for the construction of each of the wells, exclusive of the pumps and above-ground appurtenances. Task 3 - Pre-Bid and Pre-Construction _Ngg�tin s. Pre- pare for and attend a pre-bid conference and provide pre-bid clarifications and/or addenda, if necessary. Analyze bids re- ceived and make a recommendation for award. Prepare for and at- tend the pre-construction meeting and review information provided by the drilling contractors. Discuss key issues in the technical specifications, and arrange for mobilization and scheduling of personnel and equip- ment. PROJECT NO. 4. HYDROGEOLOGIC SERVICES DURING WELL CONSTRUCTION Task 1 - Mobilization. Provide initial field coordina- tion during mobilization of the contractor. Task 2 - Pilot .,Hole Logging Provide experienced geo- logic logging personnel to geologically log drill cuttings from Scope of Work 5 the pilot hole on a continuous 24-hour per day schedule. Drilling fluid characteristics can be monitored continuously for viscosity, weight, and sand content . Samples of key formation materials will be obtained during drilling to provide grain-size distribution curves of these materials to select optimum screen slot size and gravel pack gradation. Five grain-size tests will be performed on representative cuttings. Task 3 - Geoohysical Loci Analysis. Witness and analyze the electric logging of the pilot hole and provide a review of the geophysical logs. Provide a completion schedule to the driller for the final reamed diameters and depths. Task 4 - Down-hole A uifer Zone Sam lin Select two aquifer zones at depth, after review of the electric log and the geologic log, in which to conduct down-hole isolation zone sam- pling. Collect water samples from each zone for laboratory analyses of standard inorganic constituents, if sampling is per- formed by airlifting, and consider the use of performing VOC testing if the samples are collected using a submersible pump. Task 5 Well Completion Recommendations. Present to the City and the driller final recommendations for casing lengths and diameters, well screen placement, perforation sizes (slot sizes) , gravel pack type and gradation, and depth of cement around the blank casing. Provide part-time monitoring of reaming of the pilot hole. Task 6 - Casino and Gravel Pack Installation. Geolo- gists will be present to monitor, on a full-time basis, the in- stallation of the well screen, blank casing, gravel pack, and ce- ment seal . Monitoring will be conducted to ensure conformance with the specifications and/or recommendations provided for down- hole conditions. Task 7 - Submittals. Issue field memoranda to document daily activities relating to casing and gravel pack installation. Task S - Casing, Alignment Testing Observe the pre- scribed insertion of a casing dummy and monitor deflection read- ings for the alignment/plumbness testing of the well . Assess re- sults of the testing in view of the specifications . PROJECT NO. 5. HYDROGEOLOGIC SERVICES DURING WELL DEVELOPMENT AND TESTING Task 2 - Well Develo Ment and Testin Provide a geol- ogist to monitor well development by both mechanical and pumping Scope of Work 6 methods. Such monitoring will be performed on a full-time basis for mechanical development and on a part-time basis for pumping development. Task 2 - Step-Drawdown Testing Provide a geologist to monitor step-drawdown testing of the completed well. Four pump- ing rates will be recommended, and pumping rates and pumping lev- els will be monitored on a part-time basis. A field memorandum will be issued to document results of the specific capacity test . Task 3 - Final Aquifer Test (Pumping u Test) , Provide a geologist, on an appropriate, part-time basis, to monitor water level drawdown and recovery in the well during and after the fi- nal constant-rate pumping test of the completed well . Critical times will be those during the first few hours of drawdown and recovery measurements. The contractor's pump crew can be used to conduct water level measurements to maintain the monitoring schedule recommended by my office. Field values of pH, tempera- ture, and electrical conductivity of the well discharge will be obtained during the test. Water samples of the final well blend will be collected for quality testing. It is assumed that the City will directly pay for all water quality testing. Task 4 - Submittals . Field memoranda will be issued to document well development and testing operations. Task 5 - Summary of Operations Report Provide hydro- geologic analyses of field and laboratory data obtained during well construction. Use water level drawdown and recovery data to assess aquifer transmissivity and to determine the final specific capacity of the well . Provide a report to summarize well construction activi- ties and to provide an "as-built" of the completed well . Data acquired during the logging and testing of the well will be in- cluded in the report . Recommendations for operational yield and final pump placement will be provided also. RICHARD C.

During the course of our field work for the well siting stud- ies, it may become necessary to obtain water samples from a few wells and perform tests for specific volatile organic com- pounds (TCE, PCE, DBCP , etc . ) . Such tests if deemed neces- sary would be performed, if at all possible, at the City's contract water quality laboratory. Additional costs incurred in this event would be some slight costs for performing the field sampling, obtaining the laboratory bottles, and deliver- ing the full bottles to the laboratory; the City could pay the laboratory charges directly to the laboratory if they so de- sire.

ITEM 4 METHOD OF COMPENSATION My standard method for working on such projects is on a time and materials basis . This method provides the im- portant flexibility, when performing such field work, of al- lowing for any additionally required field sampling or moni- toring (taking special water samples, or obtaining static wa- ter levels in key wells) that can not be foreseen at this time. Our services accrue on my present Schedule of Charges, dated December 1986 which is provided with my pro- posal. Some slight increases may occur in my existing sched- ule after December 1988 . To keep certain costs at a minimum, I have assumed that the City, as they did for the Airport No. 1 well project , will print and bind the complete specifications package for bidding purposes . We shall furnish one complete and Final Fee Proposal 5 copy of the technical provisions and bid forms to the City with use with their standard "boiler plates. " The City can also provide major drawings of the well head configurations for the specifications.
