Attention: Patti Johnson
Subject: PROPOSAL FOR GROUND WATER / GAS MONITORING, 2021-2025
RYEGRASS BALEFILL / LIMITED PURPOSE LANDFILL
Kittitas County, Washington
Dear Ms. Johnson,
Thank you for the opportunity to present this cost estimate for HWA GeoSciences, Inc. (HWA)
consulting services on behalf of Kittitas County Solid Waste Programs (the County) at the
Ryegrass Balefill and Limited Purpose Landfill (LPL). Below, we present our scope of work and
cost estimate to provide environmental monitoring and reporting services at the Ryegrass Balefill
and Limited Purpose Landfill.
APPROACH AND SCOPE OF WORK
HWA proposes to perform the following tasks:
GROUND WATER
Ground water monitoring — HWA will conduct ground water monitoring at both the
Ryegrass Balefill and Limited Purpose Landfill, per the current ground water monitoring/
sampling and analysis plans for each facility. Groundwater at the Baelfill is monitored
semi-annually, and quarterly at the LPL. In addition gas is monitored annually at the
Balefill. This proposal includes these sampling events, and assumes analytical laboratory
work will be contracted and paid directly by the County.
Reporting — HWA will tabulate, compile and analyze all field and analytical data,
including ground water hydrographs, parameter time -concentration graphs, cation/anion
graphs, etc., and prepare annual environmental monitoring reports for the Ryegrass
Balefill and Limited Purpose Landfill once, in the first quarter of each year from 2022 to
2026 (for sampling conducted from 2021 to 2025). The reports will included previously
established the background levels and annual compliance based on all the data. We will
prepare and submit a combined annual ground water monitoring report for both landfills
each year.

HWA Project No. 2004 043
Gas
EIM data entry. HWA will enter all data collected under this scope into Ecology's
Environmental Information Management (EIM) database system, which includes location
and well information as well as analytical data, which is already provided in electronic
date deliverable (EDD) format by the laboratory.
Annual landfill gas monitoring, one round — HWA will measure landfill gas
parameters at each of the 25 landfill gas probes (GV -1 to GV -25). Landfill gas
parameters include volumetric flow rate, gas pressure, temperature, methane
concentration, and non -methane organic compound (NMOC) concentration. HWA will
also sample four landfill gas probes for laboratory analysis of NMOCs. Samples will be
collected from probes with high methane concentrations across the center of the landfill.
HWA will calculate total NMOC mass discharging from the landfill and provide
estimates of discharge rates, to document compliance with the Agreed Order.
Prepare annual gas monitoring report — HWA will prepare a report documenting the
gas monitoring, which will also be included in the annual environmental monitoring
report.
PROJECT BUDGET
We estimate that the scope of services proposed herein will require a budget of around $30,000
per year, with estimated annual escalation of up to 3% due to anticipated labor rate increases, for
a total of $158,642, to accomplish, as detailed on the attached project cost estimate spreadsheets.
The budget presented in this proposal reflects an estimate based on our current understanding of
the project requirements for a scope of work developed from information provided. HWA
reserves the right to transfer hours and budget dollars between tasks to satisfy project
requirements. Our budget also reflects estimated direct costs to the project equipment rental etc.
HWA may also transfer funds allocated for direct costs to professional/technical hours or vice
versa, to satisfy project requirements.
Thank you again for the opportunity to provide this proposal. Should you have any questions
regarding this proposal, or require additional services, please contact us at your convenience.
Sincerely,
