MEMORANDUM
TO: Mayor John Williams and Members of the Kenai City Councii
FROM: G ~~ Cary R. Graves, City Attorney
DATE: March 28, 1996
RE: Clean-up of Lots 13 and 14
In September 1995, the Council approved a settlement with the State of Alaska and the
Potentially Responsible Parties regarding the soil contamination of the courthouse site and related
construction costs increases. That settlement paid the City $400,000.
As part of that settlement, the City agreed to clean up Lot 13 and Santa Fe Drilling agreed to
clean up Lot 14 in a joint and cooperative manner. Lots 13 and 14 are the two lots adjacent to
the courthouse on which the soil excavated during courthouse construction was stored and
cleaned. In order to achieve an economy of scale, the settlement envisioned the City contracting
out and supervising the atytual clean-up of Lots 13 and 14, with Santa Fe Drilling to reimburse
the City for the costs of clean-up of Lot 14.
The total cost of clean-up for both lots has been estimated by Engineering Tech Rachel Clark
at $70,000, including a contingency of 5 9b . She indicated that the estimate is probably high, and
she expects the cost to actually come in lower. Assuming it does cost $70,000, we would be
reimbursed about half; so our cost should be about $35,000.
The clean-up costs are to betaken out of the airport fund which the settlement money went into.
I have attached a description of the clean-up project timetable from Rachel Clark for your
information.
If you have any questions, please stop by my office at City Hall or give me a call.

INT'EROFF~CE MEMORANDUM
TO: GARY ~'iR.AVES, CITY ATTORNEY'
FROM: RAt~HE~, CLARK, ENGINEERING TECHNICIAN i
SUBJECT: LOTS 13 AND 14, CZIAP, REMED~ATION
DATE: MARCH 29,1996. .
As requested, I have prepared a brief description of the excavation and remediation projects
anticipated for Lots I3 and 1.4 of the Courthouse Site. The project will be divided into three
separate contracts:
1. Third Party Services
2. Excavarion and Stockpiling
3. Remediation
Third Party Services
The Third Party Services contract will include preparation of an excavation plan, oversite of soil
excavation and the sampling (DRO,GRO, BTEX and TPH) of the excavation perimeters. This
contract will be bid as a lump sum for design, management and excavation oversite and as a per
unit sample price for the testing. If Santa Fe agrees, I expect to have this out for proposals by
April 15, with an award date of May 15, 1996.
Excavation and Stockpti,~,g
The second contract will be for the actual excavation of contaminated soil. I have separated this
phase out to ensure that the third party does not have vested interest in increasing the amount of
soil excavated. This contract will be bid as a u»it price per cubic yard excavated and properly
stockpiled. It will also be out for bid April 15, with an award date of May I5, 1996.
Remgdiat~on
The remediation contract should be out to bid July 1, with bids returned by July t S, and a
contract award date of July 17, 1996. At this point we are specifying thermal desorption as the
remediation method, and expect the project to be completed by October 1, 1996. If no thermal
bids come in, or if the bid are too high in our determination, the City would consider using a
different method. Switching ipethods may, however, require a second construction season to
complete. The remediation contract will be a lump sum price to clean and dispose of all the
stockpiled soil.
If you have any further questions, please let me know.
