subsequently determines that there is a conflict of interest between such representation and the
work being performed by consultant or such subconsultant under this Agreement, then the
Consultant or such subconsultant agrees to promptly terminate such representation. Consultant
shall require each of such subconsultants to comply with the provisions of this Section. Should the
Consultant fail to advise or notify CCUA as provided herein above of representation which could,
or does, result in a conflict of interest, or should the Consultant fail to discontinue such
representation, CCUA may consider such failure as justifiable cause to terminate this Agreement.
SECTION 16. CCUA’S APPROVAL
Neither review, approval, or acceptance by CCUA of services or Work Products furnished by the
Consultant, or any subconsultant(s), vendor(s) or subcontractor(s) engaged by the Consultant,

accuracy of its services or Work Products or any and all of its subconsultant(s), vendor(s) and/or
subcontractor(s) engaged by the Consultant to provide and perform services in connection with
this Agreement. Neither the CCUA’s review, approval or acceptance of, nor payment for, any of
the Consultant’s services or Work Products shall be construed to operate as a waiver of any of
CCUA’s rights under this Agreement, or any cause of action it may have arising out of the
performance of this Agreement.

As a multi-disciplinary corporation, CSI Geo can offer clients a single point of access for design and
construction testing and inspection services. The CSI Geo team offers Clay County Utility Authority
the following types of services:
Geotechnical and Laboratory Testing Services
CSI Geo has a wealth of experience in all types of geotechnical and laboratory testing. We have
provided these services as a prime and as a sub-consultant on contracts for FDOT, SCOP, FDOT-LAP,
county, city, and federal projects including reconstruction & widening projects, collector roads & rural
highways, intersection improvements, resurfacing, restoration, and rehabilitation (RRR) projects,
safety improvement projects, as well as parks/trail projects.
Geotechnical Engineering and Design
CSI Geo is qualified to perform and regularly provides a wide range of geotechnical engineering
analysis and design services for a variety of project types. We routinely provide geotechnical
engineering for roadway and bridge projects as well as recommendations for bridge embankments
and trail slope embankments. We evaluate deep and shallow foundations, headwalls/wing walls, and
many others.
Our standard practice for preparation of plans and specifications is to begin preparation of project
specifications concurrently with the development of the contract drawings. CSI Geo uses several
standardized specifications systems, depending on the client’s requirements. Project specifications
will be included in review packages as appropriate.
Investigation and Evaluation of Soil Support Conditions
A vital element for CSI Geo’s investigation and evaluation of soil support conditions is to focus on
understanding of the project needs and requirements along with reliable and accurate project
reporting. Initially a desk study is performed for project engineers to consider published soil survey
maps, topographic maps, and pre-existing nearby geotechnical information when available. After
review of available information, a project specific field investigation is developed and then performed
to evaluate the soil support conditions for the proposed project features. A summary of the existing
Page 29 of 59
data and field investigation are compiled into a formal report. CSI Geo specifically addresses the
existing soils and proposed fill materials and evaluates the findings as they relate to the proposed
project features, and then provides recommendations supported by engineering guidelines and
experience.
Subsurface Hydrological Investigation and Evaluation
CSI Geo is qualified to perform and regularly provides a wide range of subsurface hydrological
investigation and evaluation services for a variety of project types. Field investigations typically
consist of installation of monitoring wells and piezometers, performing Double-Ring infiltrometer
(DRI) tests to estimate infiltration rates, Electrical Resistivity (ER) and geophysical survey tests, deep
and confirmatory Standard Penetration Test (SPT) borings, and laboratory testing to determine the
properties of collected samples.
Asphalt Concrete and Portland Cement Concrete Inspection and Testing
CSI Geo’s in-house Construction and Materials Testing (CMT) department expertise includes roads,
bridges, trails, parks, and other various transportation and facilities projects. We maintain a fully
equipped soils, concrete, and asphalt-testing laboratory, which will be our primary laboratory for this
contract. As previously mentioned, CSI Geo’s lab is accredited by FDOT, AASHTO/CCRL, and the
USACE, and has maintained accreditation for nearly 25 years. Our lab participates in the FDOT,
AASHTO, and CCRL proficiency sample programs. CSI Geo has an in-house electronic sample tracking
system ‘ElmTree’ with a traditional paper backup system.
Asphalt Concrete and Portland Cement Structural Pavement Design
CSI Geo is experienced with pavement design and has provided pavement designs for the FDOT and
many municipalities, counties, and private entities throughout the state. Our engineers use a full
complement of pavement design software programs and customized Excel spreadsheets to develop
a sound pavement structure that is best suited for the desired application, is cost effective in terms
of materials and constructability, and is biddable as designed to protect the client from exposure to
unnecessary change orders during construction.
Material Testing and Inspection
CSI Geo fully understands the importance of developing a comprehensive materials testing and
inspection program for every project, well before and prior to a construction project start date. CSI
Geo will provide the county with personnel that are qualified, trained, and thoroughly familiar with
the County’s rules, policies, and procedures in inspection, sampling, testing, and
reporting/documentation in the requested areas. Our technicians are qualified through national
programs such as American Concrete Institute (ACI) and state programs such as FDOT CTQP.
Drilled Shaft Inspection
CSI Geo staff has extensive experience providing drilled shaft inspections on such installations as for
mast arm signalization structures, ITS signs, high mast lighting, bridge foundations over water, and
various buildings and vertical structures. CSI Geo staff has worked for both public and private clients.
We currently maintain four CTQP Drilled Shaft Certified inspectors who provide inspections for FDOT,
COJ, JTA, and various other government entities.

The purpose of CSI Geo’s geotechnical
exploration program was to develop
information concerning the subsurface
conditions in order to evaluate the site with
respect to the proposed JEA Rivertown
Water Treatment Plant (WTP) located along
CR 244, just south of Greenbriar Road and
west of Bartram Trail High School in St. Johns
County, Florida. The project included a 2 MG water storage tank, pump
station, piping, production wells, stormwater and drainage features, and
other minor structures. Our geotechnical study required the collection of
site and subsurface data, and performance of geotechnical engineering
analysis and evaluation. Site investigation was performed using Standard
Penetration Testing (SPT) borings as well as field and laboratory testing
services. Findings were used to make design recommendations for structure
foundations and alternatives for ground improvement.
Prior to tank construction, CSI Geo recommended and monitored a surcharge
program to improve tank foundation soils. Surcharge monitoring included
settlement plates and piezometers.
During the construction phase of
the project, CSI Geo performed
contractor quality control and
construction materials testing
(CMT) including soil density and
compaction testing, concrete
sampling and testing, and the
monitoring of proof rolling,
unsuitable soil removal, and
structural fill placement. Field soil infiltration testing and laboratory testing
was also performed as part of the construction services.

D. PROJECT APPROACH
PROJECT BACKGROUND INFORMATION AND PROJECT DESCRIPTION
We understand the project will consist of developing a 10-acre parcel located in Clay County, Florida, for
implementation of a new Clay County Utility Authority (CCUA) Fleet Maintenance Facility. We also
understand that the facility will have three bays for staff vehicles (½ to 1-ton pickup trucks) and two bays
for vacuum excavation and dump trucks maintenance and repair. In addition, the structure will house an
intake counter and three offices and have space for delivery and storage of parts and supplies. The facility
will have a fueling station (gasoline and diesel) to service the CCUA fleet. Other anticipated project
features will include paved access roads, parking and drives, sidewalks, curbs, and stormwater
management facilities. Sheet piles may be needed to facilitate deep excavations for underground fuel
tanks installations and construction dewatering.
FIELD EXPLORATION
The geotechnical exploration will consist of field exploratory borings, test pits, field
infiltration/permeability testing (if applicable), laboratory testing, and a geotechnical analysis of the
collected data. We understand that we need to coordinate with the CCUA and all other applicable local
utility providers prior to any field explorations.
Vehicle and Truck Maintenance Structure – A total of five Standard Penetration Test (SPT) borings will be
placed within the footprint of the Facility structure. Four test borings will be conducted at the corners of
the structure and drilled to a depth of 30 feet each. One test boring will be conducted at the center of
the structure and drilled to a depth of 50 feet below the existing grade. A total of two undisturbed Shelby
tube samples will be taken from the compressible soils for determination of the strength parameters.
Fuel Station & Underground Tanks – One SPT boring will be conducted in the area of the fuel station and
drilled to a depth of 45 feet below the existing grade. Soil samples from the fuel station proposed
underground tank area will be collected and tested for environmental corrosion classification.
Stormwater Management Facility – A total of two SPT borings with continuous sampling will be
conducted in the area of the new stormwater maintenance facility and drilled to a depth of 20 feet below
the existing grade. Based on the type of facility, either a Double Ring Infiltration (DRI) test (dry detention
pond/swale) or a Field Permeability test (wet retention pond) will be performed in its footprint area to
determine the infiltration characteristics of the local subsurface soils.
Access Roads, Parking and Drives – A total of eight Auger borings will be conducted in the areas of access
roads, parking, and drives and drilled to a depth of 6 feet below the existing grade.
Equipment Pads – A total of two SPT borings will be conducted in the areas of equipment pads and drilled
to a depth of 15 feet below the existing grade.
Sufficient laboratory testing will be performed on soils recovered from the borings for classification
purposes. In addition, four bulk soil samples will be collected from the areas of access roads, parking, and
drives for determination of Limerock Bearing Ratio (LBR) values of the existing subgrade soils. The
groundwater level encountered in each boring will be measured at the time of drilling.
All SPT borings will be sampled continuously to a depth of 10 feet, and at 5 feet intervals thereafter until
the boring termination depths. Test pits, if needed, will be excavated to a depth of 10 feet and will be 3
feet wide by 8 feet long. Soil samples obtained from the soil borings and test pits will be classified,
containerized, and returned to the laboratory for visual inspection and classification by the geotechnical
engineer using the Unified Soil Classification System (USCS) for structures and the AASHTO classification
system for roadway and ponds.
