LUST Incident No. 982831
1010 Wing Street, Elgin, Illinois
June 27, 2025
Dear Mr. Beck:
Ramboll Americas Engineering Solutions, Inc. (Ramboll) is pleased to submit this
request for Change Order No. 4 to complete a Corrective Action Plan (CAP) and
associated budgeting forms under the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency
(IEPA) Leaking Underground Storage Tank (LUST) program at the above-
referenced site. The scope of services offered herein will include reporting Ramboll
activities to advance this open LUST incident to closure and assist the City of 333 West Wacker Drive
Suite 1050
Elgin (City) in obtaining a No Further Remediation (NFR) letter related to this Chicago,IL 60606
former UST. USA
A. BACKGROUND T +1 312 288 3800
F +1 312 288 3801
Ramboll was retained by the City to perform site investigation services for a LUST https://ramboll.com
incident located at Wing Park, 1010 Wing Street, Elgin, Illinois. The purpose of
the investigation was to respond to a request by the IEPA to investigate a former
LUST that had not previously attained closure. The work was initially authorized
by the City on August 11, 2021. Ramboll's scope of work was subsequently
modified to include services to pursue reimbursement of the work through the
Illinois LUST fund and approved by the City through Change Order No. 1 through
3.
Ramboll has conducted several investigations of the site and submitted several
reports to the IEPA. The investigations began as Stage 2 Site Investigation in
accordance with 35 Illinois Administrative Code (IAC) Part 734.320 and several supplemental
investigations were conducted as a result of IEPA's comments of the initial Stage 2 investigation. The
results of the investigations were presented in a Site Investigation Completion Report (SICR) dated
December 14, 2023 and revised SICR dated March 3, 2025. IEPA responded on June 18, 2025 indicating
the revised SICR was approved. In email correspondence with the IEPA on June 25, 2025, the IEPA
indicated a CAP should be developed to continue towards site closure.
B. SCOPE OF SERVICES
Task 1100 - LUST FUND COORDINATION
Consistent with the LUST Fund process, each phase of work requires a new budget submittal followed by
a separate reimbursement package. Ramboll will prepare and submit a budget plan to seek approval of

the associated reimbursable costs to complete the proposed scope of work, detailed below. This budget
plan will be submitted in conjunction with the CAP.
Upon approval of the CAP, Ramboll will submit a reimbursement package to the IEPA to seek payment
from the LUST Fund. The LUST Fund works on the basis of reimbursement of eligible costs, so the costs
must be incurred and documented before they can be submitted for payment. Similar to previous
reimbursement efforts completed for this project, the reimbursement package will be submitted on the
IEPA's forms and be supported by relevant back up information such as vendor invoices and cancelled
checks. Ramboll anticipates submitting one reimbursement application after the completion of the CAP.
Task 1200 — CORRECTIVE ACTION PLAN
Ramboll will prepare a CAP for submittal to the IEPA LUST program. The CAP will be prepared in adherence
with 35 IAC Part 734.335.
It is anticipated that the report will be prepared as a report with figures, tables, and appendices provided as
required under the IEPA LUST program. In addition, the IEPA LUST technical summary form will be
prepared and will be signed by the City and a licensed Professional Geologist (PG) or Professional Engineer
(PE) from Ramboll.
C. COMPENSATION AND TERMS
Ramboll proposes to complete the scope of work as described herein on a time and materials basis with
an estimated not-to-exceed fee of $17,444.00, which includes Ramboll's professional labor costs
required to complete this scope of work. A detailed cost breakdown is provided as Attachment 1. The
estimated fee is broken down as follows:
Terms and conditions for the work will be in accordance with the Agreement between the City and
Ramboll dated August 11, 2021 pertaining to the subject site. The cost of the contract is increased
pursuant to this Change Order No. 4 as follows:
Original Contract Amount: $ 30,635.00
Previous Chance Orders $ 97,913.00
Current Contract Amount: $ 128,548.00
Change Order No. 4 $ 17,444.00
Revised Contract Amount: $145,992.00
The services will be performed on a time and materials basis in accordance with Ramboll's current
Preferred Labor Rate Schedule for 2025, attached. Please note, a percentage of this amount has and will
be reimbursed by the State of Illinois LUST fund.
Schedule
Ramboll is prepared to initiate project activities upon written authorization from the client to proceed.
Budget approval by IEPA may take approximately 60 days; however, work related to the CAP will
proceed prior to budget approval. Ramboll anticipates that the draft CAP will be submitted to the City for
review within six weeks of written authorization and finalized within 1 week of receiving City's

comments. If the proposed schedule does not meet your needs, we will work to adjust the schedule
according to your needs.
Assumptions
The following general cost assumptions have been considered in developing the scope of services and
project fee:
1. Costs to address multiple reviews by additional third parties that require submittal of additional
report drafts or labor are not included in the budget.
2. This proposal does not include responding to future comments or review letters from Illinois EPA.
Such efforts will be performed under a separate scope of work.
3. The costs include two hard copies to be submitted to IEPA via Federal Express and an electronic PDF
copy of the CAP for the City's records and to additionally submit the CAP to IEPA via email should the
City wish to do so.
We appreciate the opportunity to provide this proposal and look forward to the opportunity of working
with you on this project. Please feel free to contact the undersigned if you have any questions regarding
this proposal.
