Proposal No. 7-2081 Dear Mayor Salentine, Per the May 28, 1992 site visit made by Richard Eberhardt of Ruekert & Mielke, John Loughney of the City of Muskego and Henderson of Midwest Engineering Services, Inc., we are engineering services for the referenced project. A brief description of our understanding of the project and a discussion of the scope of services to be provided are included in the following paragraphs. Proiect Backqround The site is located on the south side of Little Muskego Lake between Kingston Drive and Janesville Court. An existing consists of a concrete box about 15' wide and approximately 40' concrete spillway is located on the east side of the site and bottom elevation on the downstream side of about El. 175 +/-. long. The top of the spillway is at Elevation 792.0 with a The diversion channel transverses through a residential area and eventually into Big Muskego Lake. The area of the project is located along the shoreline and west of the spillway. The ground surface elevation along the includes eleven (11) residential properties about 1000 feet crest of the shoreline ranges from El. 792.5+/- at the west the spillway and embankment specified that the embankment area side to El. 794.5 +/- at the east side. The original plans for be raised to El. 796.0. The spillway was constructed but the filling along the shoreline was not done. Matthy pleas to submit the following proposal to provide geotechnical geotechnical, environmental, 6 materials engineers CHIC4m IL 70E4247805 * CHAMPAIGN, IL 217-3592128 MES Proposal No. 7-2081 Little Muskego Lake Muskeao. Wisconsin The purpose of this investigation is to determine if the existing embankment is stable with respect to slope stability considerations. It is proposed by Ruekert h Mielke to maintain the area at El. 794.0 with compacted fill (where required) used that is about 1,200 feet long to be utilized during a in conjunction with sheet piling. This will provide a spillway significant rain event. A breach analysis of the spillway structure was performed by Ruekert h Mielke and indicated that most of the properties along the shoreline in question would experiepce some flooding during a significant rain event and/or failure of the spillway structure. Scope of Services depth of approximately 15 to 30 feet below the existing ground It is proposed to drill nine (9) borings for this project, to a surf ace. The elevations of the ground surface at the test boring locations will be determined by conventional leveling techniques referred to the top of the existing spillway. The number, location, and depth of the test borings will be may therefore vary from that anticipated. Where a significant dependent on the actual subsurface conditions encountered, and alteration to the workscope may be warranted, prior additional work will be charged at the unit rates shown on the authorization from the client will be obtained, and any accompanying Standard Fee Schedule. The subsurface exploration will be performed with a truck-mounted drill rig, utilizing continuous flight hollow stem auger to advance the test holes. Soil samples will be secured by the Standard Penetration Test method at two and one-half foot intervals, except that the sampling frequency may be increased in zones of foundation influence, or where erratic soil conditions are encountered. observations will be noted during the drilling activities, and Groundwater level classification and other testing will be performed to determine in the open bore holes upon completion. Laboratory visual the behavioral characteristics of the subsurface materials encountered. Upon completion of drilling activities, the boreholes will be filled with bentonite chips. The results of the subsurface exploration and laboratory testing will be utilized in an engineering evaluation and analvsis. and oresented in a written reoort which will include 0 . m the Zollowing: - -Determination of soil and groundwater conditions within the influence zone of the embankment. MES Proposal No. 7-2081 Little Muskego Lake Muskego, Wisconsin Page 3 -Provide recommendations for the type of sheet piling suitable for the proposed structure, if required. -Guidelines for subgrade preparation and placement of structural fill in these areas. -Construction considerations relating to fill placement and subgrade preparation, site drainage and groundwater control, and excavations. I -Provide computer generated slope stability analysis for the existing and proposed embankment configurations. Fee Midwest Engineering Services, Inc. proposes to perform the services on a unit charge basis, in accordance with the standard Fee Schedule and pursuant to the General Conditions, both of which are enclosed herein. A summary of the anticipated cost for the outlined services is shown on the attached Estimate Worksheet, and will be on the order of the actual number and depth of borings drilled, laboratory $8,500.00 to $9,500.00. Final compensation will depend upon tests performed, and required engineering time. Any special equipment required for site access, and any delays beyond the control of our personnel, will be considered as additional costs. An analysis of the hydrology of the surrounding area and the hydraulic capabilities of the spillway and diversion channel are beyond the scope of this study. Midwest Engineering will proceed with the work on the basis of written authorization. Please sign in the acceptance block below, and return one copy of this proposal for our files. Should you have any questions regarding this proposal, or if we could be of any other assistance, please call at any time. We are looking forward to working with you on this project.
