2. Section 1 to the Original Agreement providing for the scope of services is hereby further amended by
adding thereto the following additional services to be performed by the Consultant for the Project:
"SCHEMATIC DESIGN ADDITIONAL SERVICES:
During the Schematic Design phase, the following services were provided in addition to the original scope:
• Presentation materials provided for the February 2023 public meeting.
• It was discovered during the Schematic Design phase there are no stormwater outlets from our site. A
stormwater outlet is required by code. This led to numerous studies of alternative solutions to create a
stormwater outlet. Studies included several Rt 31 crossings and studies involving the Elgin State
Mental Health Center property to the south. The preferred approach, to utilize an existing crossing
associated with the Mental Health Center, was documented and shared with the State of Illinois Dept
of Health and Human Services.
• The Schematic Design schedule was expected to be completed in March 2023, but has been extended
for additional drainage concept exploration and coordination and environmental (soils) studies. The
extension led to additional meetings and management.
• SmithGroup has been coordinating with the City of Elgin on the extension of the City's bike trail
Project.
• SmithGroup has been coordinating with the City of Elgin on the feasibility of accommodating excess
soil from another City Project on the site.
PHASE 3: FINAL ENGINEERING AND PERMITTING
Task 3.1— Additional Survey (provided by Haeger Engineering)
A topo survey was previously completed of the site. Based on the Schematic Design, additional survey is
required west long Sports Way, south onto the Mental Health Center property and along the north edge
where bike trail improvements have been implemented since the previous survey was completed.
Task 3.2 — Soil Exploration and Geotechnical Engineering (provided by GSG Consultants)
Geotechnical borings and soil samples will be collected and analyzed. The geotechnical report will include
information about soil sampling and analysis activities; soil boring locations, soil boring logs, laboratory
data, and soil and groundwater conditions at the site. The report will provide the following
recommendations:
• Foundation recommendations including type of foundation, bearing capacity, factor of safety, and
settlement potential for buildings and typical light pole foundations
• Seismic site classification
• Lateral earth pressures and L-Pile design parameters
• Groundwater mitigation recommendations (as necessary)
• Modulus of subgrade reaction for on -grade slabs
• Pavement design and construction recommendations
• Site excavations (as necessary)
Three infiltration tests will be completed on site with a single -ring or dual -ring Infiltrometer. It is assumed
that the infiltration tests will be completed during the drilling mobilization.
Task 3.3 — Site Remediation and Mound Delineation (provided by GSG Consultants)
We have completed 2 rounds of soil sampling and submittals to the IL EPA to obtain a "No Further
Remediation" (NFR) letter. The IL EPA review is ongoing. The IL EPA may require further sampling. The
scope of this change order does not include additional soil sampling.
There is an existing mound of soil on site near the northeast corner of the power plant that contains metals
and other contaminants. The intent is to excavate and dispose of this soil mound. An investigation of the
condition of the soils at the bottom of the proposed excavation to determine excavation limits is required.
2
GSG will advance five (5) soil borings for the collection of up to ten (10) confirmation soil samples prior
to completing excavation/remediation recommendations. The IL EPA may require further confirmation
sampling or further investigation which are not included in the scope of this change order.
