EXHIBIT 1 -SCOPE OF WORK
The following sections describe the BAS/G LA Team scope of work to the City of San
Bernardino landfill project. Since the project will not be fully defined until additional
characterization work is completed, several of the project tasks described below will
require City authorization as the project proceeds.
TASK 1
1.0 DATA REVIEW
Following a Notice to Proceed, the Team will review files available with the City of
San Bernardino, the RWQCB and any site specific data that might be available with
local agencies such as the San Bernardino County Flood Control District and the
San Bernardino County Airport authority. Specifically, data concerning
hydrogeologic and water quality conditions in the area will be reviewed together
with information regarding past and on-going land use practices in the area. Since
the landfill facility is reportedly positioned adjacent to an area once utilized as an
airport, it appears that past airplane maintenance activities could impact water
quality in the area, and the data review will be especially directed to examine the
possibility that a source other than the landfill may be responsible for groundwater
degradation in the area.
In order to identify sound rationale for development of the engineering design
drawings, specifications and engineering cost estimates, data regarding the
physiographic material distribution and end use plans for the site will also be
reviewed. This review will serve to minimize duplication of earlier efforts and will
allow the Team to focus on areas where the existing data base should be
supplemented with additional information.
At a minimum, we expect the data review will include:
^ Review of published reports regarding the hydrogeology of the area to
identify the general hydrogeologic flow regime in the area and any
constraints to groundwater flow (i.e. faults).
^ Existing water quality reports on file with the City and RWQCB regarding the
landfill and vicinity.
City of San Bernardino ~ - ~ Waterman Landfill Closure
(H:\Shared\SB-Rkive\9643\1996\SOW-6141
g~ ,~~d
^ Review of historic refuse placement practices, design plans, historic
topographic data and aerial photographs to identify the approximate
configuration of the landfill.
^ Review of existing and proposed site and adjacent property improvement
plans (including drainage and grading) to assure that closure design is
compatible with existing or proposed end-use plans.
^ Review of any data regarding the engineering properties of existing soils
utilized for cover, and any data available regarding past "dynamic
compaction" of refuse.
1.2 BACKGROUND GROUNDWATER QUALITY AND LANDFILL GAS STUDY
Before any closure design work begins, given the lack of upgradient (background)
water quality data east and south of the landfill, the Team recommends that a field
and laboratory study be performed in accordance with Title 23, Chapter 15, Article
5, Section 2550.8 to determine whether an upgradient source other than the landfill
is responsible for groundwater degradation and to assess local landfill gas
conditions. Given the relatively shallow depth to groundwater in the area, the Team
expects that the subsurface investigation can be completed relatively quickly and
inexpensively using a hollow-stem auger drill rig to excavate approximately 8
boreholes.
Groundwater samples would be obtained within 5 boreholes, and gas samples from
the unsaturated zone would be collected in 3 shallow boreholes that would be
positioned adjacent to the landfill. In keeping with the project RFP, permanent
groundwater monitoring wells will be constructed in 2 of the boreholes.
The field and laboratory investigation would be completed under the supervision of
a state certified hydrogeologist, and laboratory analyses would be performed by a
state certified testing laboratory. Field operations would be recorded by a geologist
who would prepare a log of materials encountered in the borings, record sample
types and depths, and summarize all well construction activity.
Groundwater samples would be obtained using the Hydropunch apparatus
(boreholes) or using disposable bailers (monitoring wells). Appropriate sample
chain-of-custody documentation would be maintained for all gas and groundwater
samples.

~~ '~8G
1.3 IDENTIFICATION OF PREFERRED RESPONSE TO SITE CONDITIONS
Based on the results of the field and laboratory investigation (Section t-2 ), an
evaluation of the relative contribution of landfill constituents to local groundwater
degradation will be made. If it is determined that a source other than the landfill
appears to be responsible for impacted groundwater then, in discussions with City
staff, a strategy will be developed for substantiating this inference and
demonstrating that a landfill cover or gas system will be unnecessary. This strategy
is likely to entail presentation of the study results to the RWQCB in a formal report
together with historical results and recommendations for future monitoring.
If the data supports the current interpretation and a landfill cover and gas collection
system appears to be required then, in discussions with City staff and taking into
account the City's end-use considerations, apreferred (conceptual) landfill cover
design will be identified in a short "Project Objectives" report for RWQCB review.
1.4 REGULATORY LIAISON
The BAS/G LA Team recognizes that positive interaction with the regulatory agencies
is an integral element for successful completion of any landfill project. As discussed
above, the Team expects that the lead regulatory agency for the project will be the
RWQCB and that the CIWMB, County Health Department and the South Coast Air
Pollution Control District (SCAQMD) may also become involved. The BAS/G LA
Team has successfully worked with all of these regulatory agencies on a variety of
landfill projects and expects that a cordial and cooperative working relationship with
the agencies for the City of San Bernardino landfill project.
After the background water quality conditions at the site have been characterized
and the project goals and objectives have been approved by City staff, the Team
expects that a meeting with the RWQCB will be required to discuss the City's
planned response to site conditions and to establish protocols and procedures for
completing future project work.
Specifically, the Team expects that the initial meeting with the RWQCB will address
the following issues:
^ Results of the upgradient (background) water quality and landfill gas study.
City of San Bernardino 1 - 3 Waterman Landfill Closure
(H:\Shared\SB-Rkive\9643\1996\SOW-614)
%' .. a'~D
^ Implications of new water quality results with regards to probable source of
local groundwater degradation in the area.
^ Implications of landfill gas results with regards to perceived need for landfill
gas collection and neutralization.
^ If the necessity for landfill cover and gas systems are indicated, identification
of suitable substantiating engineering document (i.e. will formal Closure Plan
be required or will a short "Corrective Action Plan" with attached
engineering plans and specifications suffice).
^ Again, if a landfill cover is necessary, discussion of anticipated end-use and
any planned deviation from state prescriptive standards, and identification of
any additional substantiating data that the RWQCB may require to approve
an alternative design.
^ Closure issues in the vicinity of the adjacent roadways and the Santa Ana
River.
As appropriate, the Team will also meet with the regulatory agencies during the
course of the project to discuss and resolve any outstanding issues. All meetings or
contact with the regulatory agencies will occur only after approval from the Ciry and
all meetings and contacts will be documented.
TASK 2
2.1 GEOTECHNICAL STUDIES
If a landfill cover is required, project geotechnical studies will be directed towards
supplementing the existing geologic and geotechnical database, and identifying an
optimal means of achieving the cover requirements while meeting project end-use
objectives. Although every effort will be made to avoid redundancy, it is anticipated
that some additional field and laboratory work may be required to obtain the
engineering data necessary to meet the project objectives.

q~~ - :~~
2.1.1 DEFINE LIMITS OF REFUSE
Cursory review of the existing evaluation of historic aerial photographs indicates that
the approximate limits of refuse at the site may be adequately defined. Accordingly,
it is anticipated that "fine-tuning" of these limits can be achieved by the Contractor
during the construction project. However, if the data review (Section 1.0) indicates
that significant gaps exist in the database, or if it appears that the Contractor's bid
could be significantly impacted by uncertainties, then additional field investigation to
verify refuse limits may be performed.
To accomplish this, the Team would perform a two-phase study including
geophysical survey and a shallow subsurface investigation. Geophysical survey
would involve the use of highly portable ground penetrating radar (GPR) equipment
and/or electromagnetic methods. Geophysical work would be used to define the
horizontal and vertical distribution of the refuse prism and its relationship to
underlying native materials. This data will be important for the following
engineering analyses:
^ Evaluation of the volumes of cover materials that will be required.
^ Assessment of the potential for landfill settlement.
^ Interpretation of likely leachate flow patterns at the base of the waste cells
for assessing the adequacy of existing environmental monitoring systems.
Finally, a shallow backhoe excavation program would be conducted to verify the
lateral limits of refuse. A series of shallow test pits would be excavated along the
perimeter of the interpreted refuse prism. Since a very thick cover currently exists
over refuse, the test pit study would focus on differentiating native and fill materials.
In combination with the geophysical data, the newly estimated limits of the refuse
cell would then be plotted for integration in the project plans.
2.1.2 EXISTING COVER SOILS EVALUATION
To assess the engineering characteristics of existing cover soils on the property, a
series of test pits would be excavated at representative locations on the property.
Soils delivered from the test pits would be delivered to the laboratory to assess their
use in a final cover application. Laboratory analyses could include:

• Grain size distribution
• Atterberg Limits
• Maximum Density /Optimum Moisture
• In-place Density /Moisture
• Consolidation Potential
• Permeability
• Matric Potential
2.2 EVALUATE FINAL COVER ALTERNATIVES
Visual inspection of soils exposed at the ground surface at the site indicates that
these materials may not possess the permeability characteristics required to meet
state prescriptive standards for the low-permeability layer of a prescriptive landfill
cover. Based on the laboratory data generated in study of the existing cover soils
(Section 2.1 ), the Team will first confirm that processed on-site materials will not be
effective, and then consider alternative sources or designs that meet the state's
cover performance requirements.
CCR Title 14 allows the state to consider alternatives to the prescriptive landfill
cover design. Cover alternatives that may be considered include:
^ Soil/synthetic combinations (e.g., Claymax which sandwiches commercially
processed bentonite between layers of geotextile).
^ Clay import and evaluation of the availability of clay and clay blend
alternatives.
^ Commercial bentonite/clay admixtures.
^ Synthetic membranes (e.g., HDPE or PVC).
^ Asphalt /Synthetic membrane combinations
Recently, the RWQCB has begun to evaluate alternative cover configurations that
utilize more permeable soils that optimize vegetation growth and promote

~~ --3~
evapotranspiration. Use of on-site or near-site soils in such a configuration will also
be assessed.
Selection of a cover alternative which adequately and cost effectively meets both
regulatory and project requirements involves analysis of a number of criteria. In
addition to design and performance considerations, the anticipated costs associated
with construction and maintenance of the final cover will be thoroughly evaluated
and reviewed with the City.
Factors impacting final cover costs include: foundation preparation, material
acquisition, transportation costs, processing requirements, construction cost, lab and
field testing and long-term maintenance cost. The following engineering and cost
criteria will be evaluated when making the final cover recommendation.
2.2.1 PERFORMANCE AND ENGINEERING CRITERIA
Permeability Requirements
The selected final cover material should have performance properties that are
equivalent to minimum Title 14 b requirements.
Resistance to Settlement Related Deformation
Vertical deformations (settlement) will likely continue for a number of years after
closure. The cover alternatives will respond differently to such settlements. Analyses
of the selected alternative under deformation conditions will also be included in the
design of final construction drawings.
Chemical Compatibility and Material Degradation
Synthetic and clay/synthetic alternative covers will respond differently to chemical
and environmental factors such as landfill gas, sunlight, erosion, and vectors. To
maximize cover longevity and serviceability, it is important to select a cover that
accommodates the chemistry of landfill, the nature and sequence of cover selection,
and long-term maintenance criteria.
City of San Bernardino 1 - 7 Waterman Landfill Closure
(H:\Sh ared\SB-Rkive\9643\1996\SOW-614)
9~ -3~~
Additional Considerations
The following elements must also be considered to select an appropriate cover
material.
^ Gas Control Effects
^ Effectiveness as a Moisture barrier
^ Erosion Control
^ Surficial Slope Stability
^ Vegetative Support
^ Constructability
^ End-use Impacts
2.2.2 COST CONSIDERATIONS
Foundation Preparation
Costs associated with general clearing and grubbing of vegetation, scarifying and
recompacting of foundation materials, and minor shaping of the landfill are common
to all cover alternatives. Synthetic and clay/synthetic materials may require a more
uniform surface, and therefore, additional cost.
Materials
Material costs may vary as a result of availability, transportation requirements, and
on-site and off-site constraints.
Placement
Placement of an alternative synthetic or clay/synthetic cover requires significant
manual labor. Conversely, placement of earthen covers is more equipment
intensive. Evaluation of placement costs will provide critical data from which to
develop a recommended cover design.
City of San Bernardino 1 - 8 Waterman Landfill Closure
(H:\Shared\SB-Rkive\9643\1996\SOW-614)
9~ .~~c
Long-Term Maintenance
The long-term cost to maintain the final cover system will vary, and may produce the
greatest "hidden" cost to the facilities. Cracks in typical soil systems can be repaired
with little expense using common construction equipment and personnel. Cost to
repair synthetic covers can be much higher due to the skill and CQA required to
work with synthetic materials.
TASK 3
3.1 ENVIRONMENTAL CONTROL AND MONITORING SYSTEMS
The facility's environmental control system capabilities and requirements will be
evaluated with regards to existing and potential regulatory concerns. We expect
that these concerns will include existing or potential:
• Off-site gas migration and the potential for gas controlled groundwater
contamination
• Reduction of infiltrating precipitation waters and consequent reduction of
leachate generation and potential groundwater contamination
• Reduction of the potential for contamination of adjacent surface waters
3.1.1 GROUNDWATER MONITORING SYSTEM
As described in Section 1.0, hydrogeologic data relative to the facility will be
evaluated to assess the adequacy of the existing groundwater monitoring program.
Based on existing data supplemented by data obtained in the subsurface
investigation described in Section 1.2, optimal locations for 2 new groundwater
monitoring wells will be identified and plans for well construction will be prepared.
The evaluation will also focus on the existing and proposed groundwater monitoring
provisions, and a suitable long-term Monitoring and Reporting Program (M&RP) will
be identified which fulfills Title 23, Chapter 15 monitoring requirements and is
suitable for inclusion in the facility's Closure Plan. The proposed M&RP will detail
the monitoring network components for the landfill, construction requirements,
monitoring procedures, parameters to be monitored, schedules, statistical methods
for evaluation of data, and reporting practices.

3.1.2 LANDFILL GAS CONTROL
If required, landfill gas control measures will be designed in accordance with Title
14, Section 17783 to minimize off-site migration of landfill gases and to reduce the
potential for gas-related groundwater contamination. These regulations provide
guidelines for controlling and monitoring offsite migration of landfill gases and
require control of methane gas at the facility boundary to a level not to-exceed five
percent by volume. Under SCAQMD rules, methane emissions from the landfill
(either to the atmosphere or in structures) may not exceed a concentration of 1.25
percent by volume.
The following activities for the development of an acceptable gas migration control
system for the Site will be conducted:
^ Site Reconnaissance and Data Review
The Team will begin the work by first conducting a reconnaissance to
determine the existing conditions of the site and reviewing any data or
drawings previously developed for the landfill. After this information has
been reviewed and assimilated, an evaluation will be performed to review
the alternative solutions for controlling potential gas migration and surface
emissions.
^ Gas Generation Estimates
The Team will perform preliminary calculations to estimate the expected flow
of landfill gas (LFG) from the landfill. These estimates will be instrumental in
assisting the Team in evaluating the feasible options available for controlling
landfill gas migration at the site. In order to generate these estimates, the
Team will evaluate data regarding the quantity of waste placed; refuse
disposal history; and the approximate percentage of decomposable refuse.
^ Alternatives Analysis
After the above data has been reviewed and the gas generation estimates
developed, the Team will conduct an alternatives analysis to evaluate options
for gas migration control. These options may include placing passive systems
such as: passive trench, (although not generally recommended), or active
City of San Bernardino 1 - 10 Waterman Landfill Closure
(H:\Shared\SB-Rkive\9643\1996\SOW-614)
y~ -~~
systems such as: vertical gas extraction wells or active trench. If a landfill
gas extraction system is necessary, treatment options will need to be
considered including: activated carbon canisters, thermal destruction, or
venting with little or no treatment.
All of the options for gas migration control and treatment will be evaluated
for cost, system effectiveness, constructibility, operation and maintenance,
and regulatory compliance.
Based on the results of the evaluation, the Team will prepare a memorandum
relating the benefits and costs of the various alternatives in terms of their
technical efficiency and cost effectiveness, and an optimal system to inhibit
gas migration and surface emissions from the landfill will be identified for City
approval.
Following approval of the recommended gas system by the City, a meeting
will be held with the City and the SCAQMD to review the system and permit
requirements for its construction. With input from the SCAQMD, the Team
will then prepare engineering drawings for integration in the permit
application package and the project Plans and Specifications.
Permitting with SCAQMD
The Team will prepare the permit application to the SCAQMD for the gas
migration control system, condensate management system and treatment
facility. It is anticipated that this task will consist of coordinating with staff
from the SCAQMD and the preparation of the permit application including
preliminary level drawings and process calculations.
After final City approval of the engineering drawings and the SCQAMD
permit, the Team will prepare a construction bid package which will include
the drawings, specifications and engineer's cost estimate.

3.2 FINAL CLOSURE PLAN PREPARATION
3.2.1. CLOSURE PLAN
Preparation of a Final Closure Plan will proceed concurrently with the completion of
the landfill engineering and geotechnical tasks. The closure design plans and results
of the geotechnical studies performed will be incorporated into the Final Closure
Plan for submittal to the RWQCB and other reviewing agencies. The Closure Plan
will contain all of the information required for Final Closure Plans under CCR Title
23, Chapter 15 and the minimum design standards of Title 14. It is assumed that a
response will be prepared for one set of City and agency comments.
At a minimum, the Closure Plan will address the following:
^ GRADING PLAN
An evaluation will be completed of any grading that may be required to
"shape" or reconsolidate the landfill to conform to minimum regulatory
standards, improve drainage control, and facilitate maintenance. To
minimize the grading necessary to shape the final closure surface, the
geometry of the existing landfill will be used wherever possible to define
surface gradients, storm runoff collection points, and boundary conditions.
To minimize the overall material and construction costs, all shaping and
possible reconsolidation will be completed within the proposed foundation
layer of the cover where conventional earthwork methods and random on-
site or near-site materials can be used.
The proposed final grading plan will be analyzed for possible adverse effects
from future landfill settlement. After review of any documents relating to
past "dynamic compaction" of refuse at the site and based on the interpreted
configuration of refuse on the property, estimates of future settlements will
be made and accommodated in the grading plan.
Completed topographic surveys and grading plans will serve as base maps
for subsequent closure design plans such as fencing plans, hydrology with
grading, erosion control/landscaping plans, and soil loss analysis studies.

(H:\Shared\SB-Rkive\9643\1996\SOW-614)
9~` ~~ ~~
HYDROLOGY STUDY
Upon completion and preliminary review and approval of the draft grading
plan, a hydrology study will be performed using the grading plan geometry
and the anticipated final cover characteristics. All hydrologic evaluations will
be based on a 100-year frequency, 24hour storm event in accordance with
regulatory requirements.
DRAINAGE PLAN
On-site drainage facilities will be designed to be compatible with the final
cover system and to accommodate landfill settlement and anticipated
sediment inflow. The results of the hydrology studies will dictate the storm
drain and perimeter control facilities that will be required.
All drainage facility designs will include hydraulic calculations, storm drain
placement details, and perimeter channel design and placement details
relating to construction of all collection, routing, and outlet structures.
ACCESS/MAINTENANCE ROADS
All routes for accessing the closed landfill will be specified in the final closure
plans, and maintenance roads will be integrated into the final grading plan.
^ ENVIRONMENTAL CONTROL AND MONITORING SYSTEM
INTEGRATION
The existing and proposed environmental control and monitoring systems
will be integrated into the final cover in accordance with Title 14 regulations.
Any modifications to existing systems will be designed in accordance with a
scope of work prepared for the modifications.
Ciry of San Bernardino 1 - 1 3 Waterman Landfill Closure
(H:\Sh ared\SB-Rkive\9643\1996\SOW-614)
EROSION/SOIL LOSS ANALYSIS
An erosion/soil loss analysis may be performed for the landfill final cover in
accordance with Title 14, Section 17779 in closure and post-closure
documentation is required. The soil loss potential at the landfill site due to
water erosion will be evaluated using U.S. Department of Agriculture
Universal Soil Loss Equation (LISLE). The soil loss analyses will indicate the
maximum soil loss depths on a per-year basis over the full post-closure
period.
LANDSCAPE PLAN
If closure and post-closure documentation is required, landscaping plans may
be required in accordance with CCR Title 14, Section 177779. If required,
the landscape designs will be compatible with the selected end use and
erosion control requirements. A plant matrix and a landscape planting
scheme will be developed to satisfy both the end use and cover imposed
limitations. Criteria associated with the planting scheme and plant matrix will
include drought tolerance/low water demand, erosion control, soil types,
shallow versus deep roots, fire potential, climatic conditions, and
maintenance needs.
3.2.2 POST-CLOSURE MAINTENANCE PLANS
During preparation of the design drawings for the Closure Plan, the BAS/G LA Team
will develop aPost-Closure Maintenance Plan which incorporates closure elements
from the planning and investigation phases of the project. The intent of the Post-
Closure Plan will be to specify monitoring, inspection, repair and maintenance
methods that will be necessary to maintain the integrity and performance of the final
cover, drainage and monitoring systems during the required 30-year post-closure
maintenance period. The Post Closure Maintenance Plan will contain the following
sections relative to maintenance of the closure construction improvement systems
project-specific discussions:
^ Cover maintenance
^ Cover moisture control

3.2.3 MONITORING & REPORTING PROGRAM (M&RPl
As described in Section 3.1, using data obtained in the data review and subsurface
investigation, and during design of environmental monitoring and control systems, a
proposed Post-Closure Monitoring & Reporting Program (M&RP) will be developed.
The M&RP will identify any system improvements or modifications which are
considered necessary, and will provide detailed rationale and methods for surface,
vadose zone and groundwater monitoring procedures. The M&RP will detail the
monitoring parameters, procedures, schedules and statistical methods which will be
used in the Post-Closure period and will be developed to comply with Title 23,
Chapter 15, Article 5.
Landfill gas post-closure maintenance plans will also be prepared for the landfill gas
control system. This plan will include monitoring procedures for the perimeter gas
probes, gas extraction wells, and landfill gas GAC system. Additional procedures
will be prepared for adjustment of the gas extraction wells to optimize the landfill
gas control system. Apost-closure cost estimate will be prepared to address the
yearly costs for the post-closure maintenance procedures for the landfill gas
monitoring and control system.

3.3 CONSTRUCTION PLANS AND SPECIFICATIONS
The BAS/G LA Team will prepare Final Closure Construction Plans and Specifications
for the project based on selected engineering design criteria and regulatory
requirements, final closure method and final cap cover system, site geometry, and
existing physical site conditions.
The BAS/G LA Team has considerable experience preparing final closure
construction plans and the challenges encountered during closure construction. The
Team will provide a set of plans, specifications and engineers cost estimate that
allow for flexibility in final cover construction methods, while maintaining a superior
quality of final product. Landfills are dynamic in nature and settlement factors can
complicate survey control and quantity verification. The BAS/G LA Team has
extensive experience recognizing and compensating for such conditions.
The first draft (50 percent submittal) of engineering design plans, specifications, and
cost estimates will be in sufficient detail to meet state regulatory requirements.
Plans with construction level of detail will be prepared for the second draft (90
percent submittal) submittal to the City along with detailed specifications. The City
will be provided with a preliminary engineering design report that will include the
design plans, specifications and an engineering cost estimate. The report will
include the following components:
^ Title sheet
^ Final Grading Plan
^ Final Drainage Plan
^ Erosion/Soil Loss Analysis
^ Landscape Plan
^ Groundwater Monitoring Well Construction Plans
^ Gas Control System Plans
^ Gas Monitoring System Plans
^ Gas Treatment System Plans

The preliminary and final design drawings will be CADD generated and prepared on
24 x 36 sheets with title blocks. The design drawings will be submitted at 50
percent and 90 percent completion stages for City and agency review. Our past
experience with closure design submittals to the RWQCB that construction/bid level
(100 percent completion) documents are not required for approval. It is considered
more appropriate to complete the 100 percent submittal after incorporation of
agency comments and in preparation of the project Bid Documents.
After receiving City and regulatory comments, the design plans will be finalized for
inclusion in a final Engineering Design and Specification Report to support the City's
construction Bid Specification package.
PROJECT MANAGEMENT (Costs included in each task above.)
The BAS/GLA Team anticipates working closely with City staff to complete the
City's landfill project. Team members will adopt the City's goals, objectives,
priorities, and procedures as their own. During the course of the project, the Team's
management objectives will be to:
^ Work closely with City staff to accomplish project goals.
^ Regularly inform the Ciry of all significant events and include
recommendations for City approval.
^ Integrate project efforts in periodic technical reviews and regular monitoring
of project progress.
^ Develop and maintain cost and schedule control systems to ensure that the
project is completed on-time and within budget.
