Re: Proposal for Geotechnical and Pavement Exploration
TH 41 Roundabout at the Access Road to
Minnetonka Middle School West
Chanhassen, Minnesota
AET Proposal No. P-0027037
Dear Mr. Korzilius:
Thank you for the opportunity to provide a proposal for geotechnical and pavement exploration services
for the proposed roundabout construction in Chanhassen, Minnesota. This proposal presents our
understanding of the project, an outline of our scope of services, our anticipated schedule, and an
estimate of our fees.
1.0 PROJECT INFORMATION
The City of Chanhassen is proposing the reconstruction of the intersection of TH 41 and the Minnetonka
Middle School West access road in Chanhassen, Minnesota. The intersection will be reconstructed as a
roundabout.
The pavement improvements extend approximately 800 feet south and 500 feet north of the existing
intersection. Additionally, about 350 feet of the school access road will be reconstructed and about 200
feet of a new City street west of TH 41 will be constructed as part of this project. The project also includes
new pedestrian trails on both sides of TH 41. A grading plan is not yet available; however, based on the
topography, we assume cut and fill depths of less than 2 feet.
The project may include City water and/or sanitary sewer construction crossing TH 41 at the intersection.
We assume the utility invert depth(s) will be 10 feet or less below existing grade.
Finally, a stormwater pond/basin is proposed on the west side of TH 41 approximately 200 feet south of
the intersection. The depth of the pond/basin has not been provided; however, we assume the bottom
depth will be 10 feet or shallower from existing grade.
2.0 SCOPE OF SERVICES
Based on your RFP and subsequent emails, our scope of services will include the following.
2.1 Base Scope Exploration
• Mark soil boring locations at the site.
• Arrange clearance of underground public utilities through the Gopher State One Call system.
DocuSign Envelope ID: 71FD2483-222B-4D3E-9577-5CD50D13278D
Proposal for Geotechnical & Pavement Exploration
TH 41 Roundabout; Chanhassen, MN
September 19, 2023
AET Proposal No. P-0027037
Page 2 of 6
• Perform a total of 22 standard penetration test (SPT) borings as follows:
o 15 SPT borings to depths of 6 feet within the existing roadway.
o 3 SPT borings to depths of 11 feet within the planned widening areas.
o 2 SPT borings to depths of 14.5 feet for the proposed City utilities.
o 2 SPT borings to depths of 14 feet within the proposed stormwater structure.
• Backfill the boreholes Minnesota Department of Health (MDH) requirements.
• Patch the on-road boring surface with bituminous cold mix.
• Document the sampled boring locations by using GPS equipment with submeter accuracy.
Prior to drilling, we will contact Gopher State One Call to locate public underground utilities. Gopher State
One Call does not currently charge for this service, but they will not locate private underground utilities
or structures. The marking of private utilities must be arranged by the property owner prior to our drill
crew mobilization. See our discussion regarding UNDERGROUND UTILITIES later in this proposal.
We propose to perform traffic control in accordance with the Minnesota Temporary Traffic Control Field
Manual 2018. For the borings performed in the drive lanes, we plan to utilize Layout 16, which includes
two flaggers, traffic signs and cones. For borings within turn lanes, shoulders or existing pedestrian trails,
we plan to use traffic barricades, traffic signs, and cones. For the borings performed off the existing
pavement, we assume no traffic control is needed.
We will drill the SPT borings using hollow stem augers or by rotary mud drilling, with sampling by the
split-barrel method (ASTM D1586). At the stormwater boring locations, we will collect samples
continuously at 2-foot intervals to the termination depth. At the other boring locations, we will collect
samples continuously at 2-foot intervals within the upper 6 feet and then at 2.5-foot intervals to the boring
termination depths.
Our crew will keep field logs noting the methods of drilling and sampling, the Standard Penetration Values
(N-values, “blows per foot”), preliminary soil classification, and observed groundwater levels.
Representative portions of recovered samples will be sealed in jars to prevent moisture loss and
submitted to our laboratory for review, testing, and final classification.
We will backfill the boreholes to comply with MDH requirements. Even after backfilling, some sloughing
of the backfill may occur, resulting in a potential tripping hazard to pedestrians. We assume the City will
backfill and repair any boreholes that may slough after our exploration is complete. AET cannot accept
any liability associated with pedestrian injury.
Accessing the off-road boring locations may leave ruts in the ground. The drill crew will attempt to minimize
turf damage; however, we assume that the property owner will perform any site restoration work. We have
not included a fee for site restoration in our cost estimate.
We assume that the off-road boring locations are readily accessible for our all-terrain drill rig and on-road
borings are accessible with our truck-mounted drill rig. Snow removal/plowing and tree/brush clearing to
access the boring locations is not included in our scope of services.
2.2 Monitoring Well Installation, Monitoring, and Sealing (Optional)
To provide longer-term groundwater level monitoring for infiltration design, we recommend the installation
of a monitoring well (standpipe piezometer) at one of the stormwater boring locations.
If authorized, the monitoring well screen bottom will be set near the pond boring termination depth of 14.5
feet. The well screen will be 5 to 10 feet long, depending on the proposed pond/basin depth, and consist

of No. 10 slot screen. The sand pack around the screen will be Red Flint Sand and Gravel or equivalent
material. The riser pipe will be 2-inch diameter PVC.
The monitoring well will have a steel protective casing (pro-top) that will stand approximately 2 to 3 feet
above the ground surface. The pro-top will utilize a 6-inch diameter ASTM Schedule 40 steel pipe, 7 feet
in length, and will have a locking cap. Our optional fee estimate includes performing monthly water level
readings for 12 months.
AET has also included fees to seal the monitoring well upon the completion of monitoring, at a time to be
determined by the City. These fees will be valid provided the well sealing request is made within 20
months of installation. A new agreement and additional fees may be required if well sealing occurs after
this 20-month period.
2.3 Additional Exploration (Optional)
Following the base scope of field exploration, a second phase of soil borings may be needed as the
design progresses. SRF has requested a budget for 4 off-road SPT borings to depths of 14.5 feet. We
assume these borings will be performed under a separate mobilization to the site with an additional utility
clearance meet. Our budget also includes additional soil classification, moisture content tests, and boring
log preparation. However, these additional fees do not include laboratory index tests nor geotechnical
engineering analysis, recommendations, or reporting. As the purpose of these borings is currently
unknown, the depths and number of these borings may need to be adjusted. Additionally, once the scope
of the second phase of borings is known, an estimate of geotechnical engineering effort can be provided.
2.4 Laboratory Logging & Testing
Each of the recovered samples will be returned to our lab for visual/manual classification of the soils
according to the MnDOT Triangular Textural and AASHTO soil classification systems. Our services will
include mechanical laboratory testing of selected soil samples to aid in judging engineering properties of
the soils. In this proposal, we have estimated to perform moisture content tests on all soils. We also
propose to perform percent passing the No. 200 sieve, sieve analyses, organic content, and possibly
hydrometers.
2.5 Report
Upon completion of the field exploration and soil laboratory testing, we will prepare a report which will
include the following:
• Figures illustrating the final sampled locations.
• Subsurface boring logs, including thickness of the encountered pavement, aggregate base,
and/or topsoil; MnDOT and AASHTO soil types; measured water levels; laboratory test results,
and GPS coordinates.
• An outline of our understanding of the proposed construction.
• A summary of the sampled existing pavement, aggregate base, and topsoil thickness, as well as
water depths, if encountered.
• A review of engineering properties of the soil conditions encountered in the borings.
• Grading procedures to construct the widened embankments, including soil correction
excavations, fill types, and compaction levels.
• Subgrade preparation, including use of a sand subbase and an estimated subgrade R-value.
• Bituminous pavement 10-ton design sections for the Roundabout, TH 41, and the City street.
• Concrete pavement design section for the Roundabout.

• Utility support bedding and backfilling procedures, including dewatering considerations, material
types, and compaction levels.
• Hydrologic soil group and estimated soil infiltration rates based on the soil types encountered in
the applicable borings, the laboratory index testing performed, using the Kozeny-Carman
equation (if applicable), and the Minnesota Stormwater Manual.
• Comments on other items which may affect final performance or constructability, such as frost
heave and drainage considerations.
3.0 SCHEDULE
Weather permitting and based on our current backlog, the field exploration can be completed within 8
weeks following final contract authorization. The base scope drilling fieldwork will take approximately 2
to 3 days to complete. We anticipate that a draft report will be submitted within 3 weeks following the field
exploration. The final report can be submitted within 1 week after receiving comments on the draft report.
4.0 FEES
Our fees for the base scope of services described above will be charged on a time and material basis,
with a not-to-exceed fee of $19,564.50. A further breakdown per task is provided below.
1. Layout and Utility Clearance $ 1,980.00
2. Geotechnical Field Services $ 7,724.50
3. Traffic Control $ 2,300.00
4. Laboratory Logging and Testing $ 2,540.00
5. Project Management and Reporting $ 5,020.00
Base Scope Total Fees $19,564.50
If installation of a standpipe piezometer monitoring well is requested at a proposed stormwater boring,
our not-to-exceed fee will be $26,089 with the additional fees summarized below.
1. Monitoring Well Field Services and Materials $ 1,385.00
2. Monitoring Well Readings $ 3,690.00
3. Monitoring Well Sealing $ 1,449.50
Additional Piezometer Fees $ 6,524.50
Additionally, fees for a second mobilization to the site to perform 4 additional SPT borings to depths of
14.5 feet in off-road areas with boring logs will be $5,014.50.
In the event the scope of our services needs to be revised, such as additional or deeper borings and
additional field or laboratory testing, we will review such scope adjustments and the associated fees with
you and receive your approval before proceeding. Additional services will be charged in accordance with
the attached fee schedule. Our fees will be in effect for thirty days following the date of this proposal, and
fees for services authorized after this expiration date will be subject to review and possible escalation.
5.0 MINNESOTA DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH FEES
The Minnesota Department of Health (MDH) monitors borehole sealing requirements, which are
summarized below. Projects that span multiple properties require multiple notifications.
• For sites where borings are drilled to a depth of 15 feet or deeper, all licensed drilling companies
are required by law to grout the boreholes upon completion. The MDH requires that a Sealing
Record be submitted to the MDH, with a copy to you and the Property Owner, after the borings
are completed.
DocuSign Envelope ID: 71FD2483-222B-4D3E-9577-5CD50D13278D

TH 41 Roundabout; Chanhassen, MN
September 19, 2023
AET Proposal No. P-0027037
Page 5 of 6
• In addition, for borings extended to a depth of 25 feet or deeper, all licensed drilling companies
must submit written Notification to the MDH prior to drilling, along with a fee of $75.
• In addition, for monitoring wells installed to a depth of 15 feet or deeper and left in place longer
than 3 days, the MDH requires a Well Construction Notification be submitted, along with a fee of
$275.
Our fee estimate does not include MDH fees, as none of the above requirements are proposed. However,
if the final boring depths extend to 25 feet or more (due to possible deep poor soil conditions) or if
monitoring wells of 15 feet or deeper need to be in place for more than 3 days, the final MDH fees, plus
an administrative charge of $65 per notification, will be added to our final invoice to you.
The MDH Sealing Records and Notifications require the Property Owner name and mailing address, and
the Property Owner will receive a copy of the Sealing Record. This information must be provided to us
prior to drilling for any properties where borings are planned to be 15 feet or deeper.
6.0 UNDERGROUND UTILITIES
Prior to drilling, we will contact Gopher State One Call to locate public underground utilities; however,
Gopher State One Call will not locate private underground utilities or structures. Examples of private
utilities include, but are not limited to, propane lines, sewer laterals, sprinkler systems, site lighting, and
electric and data lines between buildings. Gopher State One Call states that the property owner is
responsible for locating all private underground utilities and structures. Please provide us with any
maps, plans, and/or records showing the location of all private utilities and structures.
We can provide you with names and contact information for private utility locators. These companies
usually charge a fee for their services. Also, please note that private locators cannot guarantee that all
private utilities will be located. For the private locator to be accurate and effective, the property owner
must provide maps, plans and records showing the location of all private utilities and structures. The
property owner must also provide a knowledgeable site representative to meet with the private locator
and AET personnel.
AET shall be entitled to rely upon the accuracy of all location information supplied by any source. We will
not be responsible for any damages to underground utilities or structures not located or incorrectly
identified by the property owner, any maps, plans or records, or public or private utility locator providers.
7.0 ENVIRONMENTAL CONCERNS
This proposal is presented for engineering services to evaluate the structural properties of the soil at the
specified site. This proposal does not cover an environmental assessment of the site; environmental
testing of the soil or groundwater; a wetland assessment; or consultation on lead, mold, asbestos, silica,
