Quality Assurance Oversight
Hopewell Site Compliance Measures
Newton Site Cell 1 Construction
Cumberland County Landfill
ARM Proposal 00183
Dear Mr. Stipe:
In accordance with your request, and based on our June 5 and June 6, 2000 meetings at the
Cumberland County Landfill (CCL) sites (Hopewell and Newton), ARM Group Inc. (ARM) has
prepared the following work scope and cost estimate to conduct quality assurance (QA)
oversight work in connection with compliance measures that must be carried out at the Hopewell
site and Cell 1 preparation and construction at the Newton site.
ARM understands that timely and committed service is necessary to address Notice of Violations
(NOVs) from the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) that CCL has
received within the last month; and that corrective actions must be carried out to minimize the
likelihood and degree of enforcement actions that may face CCL. To this end, ARM will focus
on the May 1 and May 24, 2000 NOVs, and the subsequent "Immediate Improvements" punch
list (generated by Martin & Martin (MM) and distributed to involved parties at our June 6, 2000
meeting) that address NOV items.
Based on our June 6, 2000 meeting, it is our understanding that Bucek & Associates, Inc.
(Bucek) is responsible for the Leachate Monitoring item on the punch list and that EarthRes
Group, Inc. (ERG) is responsible for the Gas Monitoring item on the punch list. However, ARM
will acquire a working knowledge of these items and maintain peripheral involvement of the
leachate and gas issues to facilitate communications and applicable transitional activities relative
to QA involvement. Otherwise, ARM's work scope is as follows:

WORK SCOPE
Phase 1 - Hopewell Compliance Measures - QA Oversight
Cover Soils:
ARM personnel will inspect and sample, where warranted, cover soils that are proposed for use
and/or already in place for daily and intermediate cover purposes. Where pozzi-shell or other
alternate daily cover (ADC) is approved for use, ARM will observe its placement and document
that it is being installed in accordance with the approved method in the permit or equivalency
review documents.
We understand thatpozzi-shell will be proposed as a demonstration project for use as
intermediate cover, and that ERG will be responsible, through MM, to submit this application.
For the purposes of our oversight activities, we will assume that pozzi-shell will be used as a
DEP-approved demonstration project intermediate cover.
For estimating purposes, we have allocated a $1,000 budget for laboratory testing (U'SDA
textural classification) to document proper gradation and USDA classifications are being applied
where soil is used for cover. Ifa testing frequency protocol is specified in a general operating
QA Plan, ARM should be so notified'to ensure compliance. Otherwise, we will collect samples
at our discretion (estimated to be one sample per week for 8 weeks or until source or process
consistency stabilizes) or under MM's guidance to document compliance.
If any laboratory testing reveals that soils do not meet the regulatory requirements for soil
texture, ARM will immediately notify MM and/or CCL so that proper action can be taken. A
hard copy of test results will follow up any verbal report of non-compliance within 48 hours.
Sedimentation Basins and Interceptor Channels/Terraces
ARM personnel ~vill direct and document repair work to be conducted relative to sedimentation
issues, including:
· The elimination or substantial reduction of"piping" around barrel discharge pipes of
sediment basins. This will be achieved through excavation and replacement of bacldill
soils around the barrel pipe with bentonite cut-offtrenches (i.e., anti-seep collars) and
clayey backfill soil;
· Placement of filter stone around riser pipes to reduce sediment discharge;
· Placement of stone ben'ns/check dams at basin entrances, and along channels and
benches/terraces to reduce sediment loading;
· Installation of stone drains between capped and uncapped portions of the landfill to
prevent lateral flows;
· Other measures to be determined in the field.
ARM personnel ~vill be on site to direct, where necessary, and oversee these repair and
operational/maintenance-related construction activities. In addition, ARM will generate as-built
drawings or schematics, as appropriate, for submission through MM to the DEP to document
corrective actions.
A R M G r o u p I n c
Seep Control
ARM personnel will direct and document seep mitigations measures carried out to eliminate or
substantially reduce outbreaks. Such measures, as summarized in MM's June 6 punch list, will
include digging into the landfill at seep locations to promote intemal drainage of the seeps,
grading the working face to promote drainage away from the side slopes, and scraping or
trenching through intermediate and daily cover soils prior to successive waste lift applications to
promote vertical percolation of leachate.
Also, in general, ARM will take a proactive approach in guiding earthwork and other operational
practices to avoid compliance issues. We will report any observations that require attention
along with recommendations for resolution. ARM will maintain a record log, daily inspection
forms, and maps that document each day's activities. At the end of each day, ARM will copy
documents generated, and provide a copy to MM and CCL. Both of these copies will be left in
the CCL offices for pick up by an MM representative and for CCL files.
Phase 2 -Newton Site Pad N-1 Construction QA Oversight
Site Preparation and Maintenance'
ARM personnel will direct and document grading activities to eliminate undrained areas and to
prepare the site for rough grading and cell construction, including the application of temporary
revegetation. We will work with Best Angle Surveys (Angle) to coordinate surveying for
creating drawings to illustrate site conditions for record purposes.
Structural Fill Placement, Pad Grading, and Cell Construction/Liner Installation Activities
ARM understands that MM will provide ARM personnel with the DEP-approved construction
quality control (C. QC) plan and CQA plan for the PadN-1 construction. Currently, ARM does
not have possession of these plans. However, based on our prior experience in overseeing CQC
plans and carrying out CQA plans, we anticipate that, depending on the construction equipment
and manpower dedicated to the project, we will have one to two full-time personnel on~site to
inspect and oversee construction. In any case, ARM will follow the protocols set forth in the
approved CQC/CQA plan. If necessary, upon the request of CCL, ARM will prepare a more
detailed scope of work and list of responsibilities for ARM following the receipt of the
CQC/CQA plan.
SCHEDULE
ARM will begin work immediately, and will remain dedicated to the projects above referenced
until directed otherwise by CCL. Based on our June 5 and June 6, 2000 meetings, we anticipate
that the Hopewell site will require 8 ~veeks of ARM involvement for the compliance-related
construction measures. CQA oversight at the Newton site will, in part, occur concurrently as
well as after Hopewell work for an estimated duration of 4 months. This is an assumed schedule
and subject to change based on. the Contractor's schedule for the Newton site as well as any on-
A R M G r o u p I n c
going issues and ultimate closure of the final cells on the Hopewell site. For budgetary purposes,
we have assumed ARM personnel will be on-site until Pad N-I of the Newton site has been
certified by ARM as compliant with the design drawings and specifications (and CQC/CQA
plan), which we have assumed to be a total of 20 weeks.
COST
ARM's cost to conduct the above work will be dictated by field conditions and the schedule and
progress of the contractors on site performing the work. ARM's level of effort will be guided by
your project coordinator, as directed. Our services will be conducted on a time-an-expense basis in
accordance with our current Consulting Rate Schedule, which is attached. Over the next 8 to 10
weeks, ARM's cost will likely be in the range of $30,000 to $40,000. As Pad N-1 develops and the
manpower and laboratory testing requirements can be more defined, we will update our estimates.
Actual charges will be more than or less than the estimated budget, depending upon the level of
effort required by this assignment. Invoices are prepared on a monthly basis, and our terms for
payment are net: 30 days.
If the objectives and generalized scope of services as described herein are acceptable, you should
indicate your approval by signing this proposal in the indicated space below or by issuing a purchase
order with mutually acceptable conditions. If you have any questions or require clarification or a
modification of this proposal, please contact the undersigned at your earliest convenience. We

Quality Assurance Oversight
Newton Pad N1 Construction
Cumberland County Landfill
ARM Proposal 00212
Dear Mr. Stipe:
Following up on a request from Waste Systems International's (WSI's) Mr. Bernie Rieder, ARM
Group Inc. (ARM) has updated its previously submitted proposal (Proposal 00183, June 6, 2000)
to continue quality assurance (QA) inspection, testing, and oversight work in connection with the
Newton Pad NI Construction located at the Cumberland County Landfill (CCLF).
As you are aware, ARM personnel have had on-going involvement at the CCLF site since early
June, with responsibilities related to installation and documentation of compliance measures for
the Hopewell site and inspection/testing and guidance for the preparation of the Newton Pad N1
landfill. To date, Newton construction activities have been limited to clearing and excavation to
achieve subgrade at the site. Pad construction consisting of subbase, liners, piping, protective
cover, etc. is expected to begin around August 1 and continue through November 30, 2000.
According to Mr. Rieder, in order to complete construction within that timeframe, it is expected
that 12 hour days, 6 to 7 days per week will be required with requisite inspection and testing.
By August 1, 2000, ARM anticipates that the currently approved budget ($40,000) for
engineering and QA activities conducted by ARM will be nearly exhausted due to 7-day
workweeks and extended workdays. Therefore, ARM requests an updated purchase order or
amendment to ensure continuity of oversight and sufficient budget to last for the duration of the
project. The proposed works scope below is intended to fulfill QA requirements sufficient for
ensuring compliance with the permit drawings (note: specifications and "issued for construction
plans" have not been received) and to result in a complete certification report.

WORK SCOPE
Construction Quality Assurance Inspection and Testing for Newton - Cell N1
The engineer-of-record for the permitting of the Newton expansion, Martin & Martin, Inc.
(M&M) provided AP~M with the Construction Quality Assurance/Quality Control (CQAJQC)
Manual for CCLF that reportedly governs QA/QC at the site. Based on this manual, which we
understand to be part of the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection (DEP)
permit, unless otherwise notified, ARM will perform QA inspection, testing, and oversight
during the construction of the Nexxaon Pad N1 landfill area. Our work scope is based on our
review of this document, with estimated requisite laboratory testing.
This work includes:
1. Review of manufacturer's quality control (MQC) documentation to verify compliance
with project specifications.
2. Conformance sampling and testing in accordance with the CQAJQC Manual (Manual), to
include:
· Sample collection and testing at a rate of one per lot, but not to exceed one per
100,000 square feet at an independent laboratory for geomembrane, geotextile, and
geocomposite (geonet and geotextile) layer properties listed in the Table 1 of the
Manual;
· Sample collection and testing at a rate of one per I0 rolls ofgeosynthetic clay liner
(GCL) at an independent laboratory for properties listed in the Table 1 of the Manual;
· Sample collection and testing of structural fill, subbase, protective cover, detection
zone, and pipe bedding aggregates in accordance with the protocols set forth in Table
1 of the Manual;
· Review of testing results with notifications relative to compliance made to Owner.
3. Subgrade preparation inspection and acceptance as set forth in the Manual.
4. Verification of anchor trench compliance with drawings and specifications.
5. Verification of field panel identification and preparation of a table correlating panel codes
with roll numbers.
6. Verification that field panel placement and deployment are in accordance with
specifications andior approved panel layout submittal.
7. Verification of proper seam preparation, procedures, and non-destructive testing.
8. Selection of destructive seam test locations at a minimum average frequency of one per
500 lineal feet and independent laboratory testing of samples in accordance with ASTM
D-4437.
9. Verification of minimum acceptable values for destructive seam test results.
10. Verification of proper placement of soil materials With any non-compliance reported to
the Owner.
11. Verification of the accuracy of the panel layout as-built drawing showing seam locations,
identification numbers, destructive test locations, and repairs/patches.
A R M G r o u p I n c
ARM Proposal 00212
3 July 21, 2000
12. Coordination with the surveyor in providing timely as-built topographic surveys of the
top (or bottom) of subbase, top of protective cover, and plan location of pertinent features
including sumps, piping, and anchor trenches.
ARM proposes to exclude the Plate Load Test (Table 1, Subbase, Item 6) cited in the Manual, as
that has been recognized by the engineering community, and subsequently DEP pursuant to its
proposed regulations, to be an inapplicable test and random bearing capacity criterion (i.e., 4,500
pounds per square foot plus applied load).
It is important to note that the exact number of samples and tests cannot be provided at this time
due to the absence of any quantities or bid forms from which the earthwork and geosynthetic
contractors would base their bids. QA testing would also be reflective of such quantities, as well
as the number of sources from which aggregates would be delivered. Therefore, in the Cost
section of this proposal, the laboratory testing cost is an estimate.
In accordance with the terms of the permit, ARM personnel will be on site during any work that
takes place in the cell. In the role that we are expected to have, ARM will serve as QA Engineer
with responsibilities as set forth in the Manual. Therefore, we expect that the Construction
Contractor will have a sufficient number of competent superintendents and staff to execute the
work and, therefore, our role in this project will not be as a construction manager. If such a
position is necessary, ARM will staff it accordingly, but at costs in addition to those estimated in
this proposal.
As stated earlier in this proposal, we have been informed that 6 or 7 day workweeks and 12-hour
· days will be required to meet the cell opening schedule. For budgetary purposes, we have
assumed that 7-day workweeks will be required and that workdays will be on the average of 12
hours, plus travel. ARM's actual site time and labor will be dictated by the Contractor's
schedule and progress. Therefore, in the Cost section of this proposal, the inspection labor cost
is an estimate.
Pad N1 Landfill Certification Report
At the conclusion of the project, ARM will prepare a certification report, as required by the DEP
and specified in the Manual. The following documentation will be developed, maintained, and
submitted, as appropriate:
· Surveyed plans showing completed fill grades (subbase and protective cover); locations
of pipes, penetrations, and anchor trenches; and as-built geomembrane panel layout with
notable features (e.g., seam tests, patches, repairs);
· Copies of daily inspection reports;
Copies of MQC testing and CQC testing results;
Copies of conformance and other CQA test results;
· Accompanying narrative, as appropriate; and
· Copies of relevant correspondence between/among the Owner, Installer, Contractor,
ARM, and the DEP that was generated during construction.
A R M G r o u p I n c
ARM Proposal 00212
4 July'21, 2000
The certification report will be signed and sealed by an ARM professional engineer (P.E.), as
required by DEP. One draft copy will be provided to the Owner for review and comment. Three
copies of the final certification report will be provided to the Owner for distribution and filing.
Inspection Support, Meeting Attendance, and Related Correspondence
During the course of the project, additional manpower beyond the services of one inspector is
expected to be necessary to inspect the work. In addition, weekly progress meetings will be held
as necessary to conform with 0waer and/or DEP's requirements. Therefore, at least once per
week, an ARivI professional engineer (P.E.) will visit the site and attend the progress meetings to
provide input and provide direction and oversight of ARM's inspectors. Direct P.E. oversight is
specified in the Manual (i.e., QA Engineer) and is a requirement of Pennsylvania law as the
certification report that will be generated as a result of our inspections will require the seal of a
P.E. ARM has reserved personnel accordingly and allocated budget in our cost estimate
presented below.
In addition, based on our review of the plans provided, the need for on-going correspondence
with the Design Engineer and the Installer is evident based on inconsistencies and/or omissions
in the construction-related documents. ARM engineers will have correspondence with these
parties as well as the Owner to facilitate project progress and compliance with the project plans
and specifications.
Currently, ARM understands that, although surveying will be coordinated by ARM for the
production of as-builts and record drawings, Best Angle Associates or the Contractor's surveyor
will perform surveying, with oversight by ARM, under contract to WSI. IfWSI prefers that
ARM provide the surveying services, we should be notified by WSI so that we can amend our
proposal and cost accordingly.
SCHEDULE
ARM's work pursuant to this proposal is expected to begin on or about August 1, 2000 and will
continue through completion of the project which is expected to be November 30, 2000. Due to
the Installer's and Contractor's schedule and progress directly impacting ARM's labor, ARM's
work must be conducted on a time-and-expense basis. However, for budgetary purposes, we
have assumed that the project will run from August 1 through November 30, 2000, working 7
days per week, 12 hours per day plus travel.
ARM's draft certification report will be submitted within one month of receiving final submittals
(e.g., panel layout as-built) from the Installer and any supporting documentation that is the
responsibility of other parties.
A R M G r o u p I n c
ARM ?roposal 00212 5 July 21, 2000
COST
AP~M's cost to conduct the above work will be dictated by field conditions and the schedule and
progress of the contractors on site performing the work. ARM's level of effort will be guided by the
number of construction crews on site and your project coordinator, as directed. Our services will be
conducted on a time-and-expense basis in accordance with our current Consulting Rate Schedule,
which is attached. Through November 30, 2000, AKM's cost will likely be in the range of
$150,000, broken down as follows:
· Engineering Inspector: 120 days (excludes Labor Day and Thanksgiving) @ 13 hours/day
(incl. 1 hour travel) ~ $58/hour -- $90,480 estimated;
· Project Engineer: 18 weeks ~ 20 hours/week @ $68/hour = $24,480 estimated;
· Geotechnical Engineering Manager, P.E.: 18 weeks ~ 5 hours/week @ $95/hour - $8,550
estimated;
· Clerical Support: 18 weeks @ 3 hours/week ~ $35/hour = $1,890 estimated;
· Expenses: $14,000 estimated;
· Laboratory Testing: $15,000 estimated.
Total Estimated Cost: $154,400
Therefore, for budgetary purposes, ARM proposes a budget of $150,000.
All services will be provided in accordance with the attached Consulting Rate Schedule and
ARM Group Inc. Standard Terms and Conditions, which the undersigned acknowledges as
having read and agreed to upon acceptance of this proposal. Invoices will be biweekly and
payment terms are net 30 days. This proposal will remain open f6r 30 days.

The revised cost estimate is based on the actual charges accrued for ARM's work on the Newton Pad

September 10, 2000, extrapolated through October 31,2000, the expected completion date. The
expected completion date is based on information received from Waste Systems International, Inc.'s
(WSI's) Mr. Mark Katrina on September 15, 2000.
Adjustments to the extrapolated estimate have been made to account for the laboratory testing that
has been completed and will not be replicated. Geomembrane peal and shear tests represent the
majority of the remaining geosynthetic tests to be conducted. Grain size, insoluble residue, relative
density, and permeability tests will be the remaining tests to be conducted on the protective cover
aggregate, in accordance with the permit, and are budgeted accordingly in the estimate. In addition,
above average engineering involvement that was required in August and September to resolve issues
in connection with the Minor Permit Modification Application submittal and for rectifying
design/construction plan issues in the field is assumed to not be necessary for the remainder of the
work. Also, the following estimate assumes that the estimated completion schedule set forth by WSI
accounts for diminishing daylight hours with requisite reductions in CQA oversight. The original
Addendum No. 1 assumed construction through November 30, 2000, which was based on estimated
duration as reported by ARM and contractor personnel. A reduction of estimated labor and expense
has been made accordingly and is reflected in the revised cost estimate below.

A Il M G r o u p I n c
ARM Proposal 00212, Addend. 1, Rev. 1 3
September ~5, 2000
Expenses include (per rate schedule): 1. Vehicles rented from an outside vendor at lowest negotiated rate (e.g., 4-WD trucks),
mileage included, fuel extra.
2. Personal vehicles ~ $0.39/mile.
3. Generator @ $180/week.
4. Trailer ~ $75/week.
5. Nuclear Density Gauge ~ $260/week.
6. Miscellaneous: record log books for QA notes; binders for certification reports; marking
paint and flags; meals; buckets; copies and other reproduction (e.g., 24 x 36 plot, etc.),
overnight delivery for 24-hour turn-around on laboratory test results.
Therefore, for budgetap7 purposes, ARM requests that WSI increase the original budget by
$40,000 to a total budget of $190,000. This budget, as stated previously, is based on the premise
that surveying is directly billed to WSI and not included within the above budget.
ARM will conduct its services on a time-and-expense basis, and will not exceed the above amount
without verbal authorization from Mr. Stipe or Mr. Katrina. As always, ARM will endeavor to keep
costs as low as possible by negotiating low rates with vendors and subcontractors, and by
maintaining only the required number of personnel on site and otherwise involved to ensure a quality
installation and a competent certification.
All services will be provided in accordance with the Consulting Rate Schedule and ARM Group
Inc. Standard Terms and Conditions, which the undersigned acknowledges as having read and
agreed to upon acceptance of this proposal. Invoices will be biweekly and payment terms are net
30 days. This proposal will remain open for 30 days.

Please authorize this additional budget by signing in the space provided below and returning a copy
of the signed proposal with an original signature. This will serve as an amendment to our existing
contract for this work. Alternatively, ARM will accept a change to the purchase order from
Community Refuse Services, Inc. d.b.a. WSI - Cumberland County Landfill referencing this
proposal, provided that terms and conditions are mutually agreed upon. ARM appreciates the
opportunity to continue working on this project.
