Work that it covers within any time for performance specified in the Scope Document
(Section 2-A of the Solicitation Documents).

discounts set out in Attachment 4 of Part 4 of this Solicitation: Pricing Sheet, including any subsequent

largest discounts, both separately and in combination, at which Contractor sells equivalent items of
equipment, materials and services.
2.1.1 That price-plus-discount equivalence("Contractor's Best Pricing")is intended to be irrespective
of whether or not those other sales have special purchase terms, conditions, rebates or

2.1.2 If Contractor's Best Pricing for equivalent items of equipment, materials and services is
better than the Contract Pricing,then Contractor agrees to adjust the Contract Pricing to

been)has been settled.

2.2 Implied Terms Each provision of law and any terms required by law to be in the Contract are a part of
the Contract as if fully stated in it.

construed to be a reference to"Contractor and all Subcontractors,whether they
are first-tier subcontractors, sub-subcontractors, suppliers, sub-suppliers,
consultants, or sub-consultants, as well as all of Contractor's and the
Subcontractors' respective agents, representatives, and employees" in every
instance unless the context plainly requires that it is be a reference only to
Contractor as apart from Subcontractors;
2. uses the permissive"may"with respect to a party's actions,determinations,etc.,
the term is to be interpreted as in A.A.C. R2-7-101(31)[Definitions]. For clarity of
intent, any right given to State using "State may" or a like construction denotes
discretion and freedom to act so far as any regulatory or operative constraints
permit in the relevant circumstances,provided that:(a)where written"may,at
its discretion,"the discretion extends to whatever is most advantageous to State;
and(b)where written only as"may,"the discretion is constrained by what is fair,
reasonable, and as accommodating of the respective best interests of both
parties as practicable under the circumstances;
3. uses the imperative"shall"with respect to a party's actions,duties,etc.,the term
is to be interpreted as in A.A.C. R2-7-101(43) [Definitions]. Conversely, the
phrase"shall not"is to be interpreted as an imperative prohibition.
4. uses the term"must"with respect to a requirement, criterion,etc., the term is to
be interpreted as conveying compulsion or strict necessity,and is to be read as
though written "must, if(the subject] is to be entitled to have (the object]
considered or credited as being compliant with, conforming to, or satisfying(the
requirement, criterion,constraint,etc.],otherwise,(the object]will be considered
or debited as being non-compliant,non-conforming,or unsatisfactory for its
Contract-related purposes"in every instance;

and
6. uses the term "will" or the phrases "is to be" or "are to be" with respect to an

in one but not in another, Contractor shall carry out the Work as though the relevant
work, requirements,obligations,or duties had been fully described in all,consistent with
the other documents forming the Contract and as is reasonably inferable from them as
being necessary to produce complete results.
2.4.2 CONFLICTS. In case of any inconsistency, conflict, or ambiguity among the
documents forming the Contract and their provisions,they are to prevail in the following
order, descending from most dominate to most subordinate, provided that, among
categories of documents or provisions having the same rank,the document or provision
with the latest date prevails. Information being identified in one document but not in
another is not to be considered a conflict orinconsistency.

(9) any other documents referenced or included in theSolicitation;

Attachment in the Solicitation Documents or an Offer(either Initial, Revised, Best and
Final, or Accepted) and was subsequently made into an Exhibit, or its content was
incorporated into one of the other Contract documents,then that Attachment no longer
exists contractually as an"Attachment"since it has at that point been made into some
other Contract document. In every other case, an Attachment and the Offeror data
therein remain part of the Accepted Offer for purposes of precedence and contractual
effect.

Contractor performance under the Contract. Neither party is or is to be construed as being to be the
employee or agent of the other party, and no action, inaction, event, or circumstance will
be grounds for deeming it to be so.

Contract and will not affect any other term or condition of the Contract.

it may issue for the Contract. For clarity of intent,the foregoing applies equally whether
an Eligible Agency issues the Order or,if applicable,a Co-Op Buyer issues it.
3.14.6 NON-CONTRACTED MATERIALS OR SERVICES. Any attempt to knowingly
represent for sales, marketing,or related purposes that goods or services not specifically
awarded are under a State contract is a violation of the Contract and law.
3.15 Statewide Contract If the Special Terms and Conditions indicate that the Contract is for statewide use,then
Provisions the following provisions apply:
1. Contractor shall verify if an ordering entity is a bona fide Co-Op Buyer before
selling Materials to or providing Services for them under the Contract. The
current list of Co-Op Buyers is available on the State Procurement Office
website:
https://spo.az.gov/procu reme nt-services/cooperative-procu rementlstate-pu rchasi nq-cooperative
2. Contractor shall sell to Co-Op Buyers at the same price and on the same lead
times and other terms and conditions under which it sells to Eligible Agencies,
with the sole exception of any legitimately additional costs for extraordinary
shipping or delivery requirements if the Co-Op Buyer is having Materials
delivered or installed or Services performed at locations not contemplated in the
contracted pricing(e.g.delivery to a location outside Arizona).
3. Contractor shall pay State an administrative fee against all Contract sales to
Co-Op Buyers,as provided for under A.R.S.§41-2633.The fee rate is specified
in the Special Terms and Conditions. Failure to remit the administrative fees is a
material breach of contract, and will entitle State to its remedies under Article 8
and its right to terminate for default under Article 9. Method of calculation,
payment procedures, and other details are provided on the State Procurement
Office website:
https://spo.az.gov/contractor-resources/statewide-contracts-administrative-fee
4. Contractor shall submit to State a quarterly usage report documenting all
Contract sales to both Eligible Agencies and Co-Op Buyers, itemized separately.
Contractor shall further itemize divisions, groups or areas within a given Eligible
Agency if they place Orders independently of each other. Failure to submit the
report is a material breach of contract,and will entitle State to its remedies under
Article 8 and its right to terminate for default under Article 9. Contractor shall
submit the report using the forms and following the instructions on the State
Procurement Office website:
https://spo.az.govlcontractor-resou rces/statewide-contracts-administrative-fee
5. Contractor shall acknowledge each Order from Eligible Agencies within 1 (one)
business day after receipt by either: (a) "approving" the Order electronically in
ProcureAZ, which will indicate Contractor's unqualified acceptance of the Order
as-issued; or (b) "rejecting" the Order electronically in ProcureAZ, with a
concurrent explanation by email to relevant originator as to the reason for
rejecting it. By way of reminder,the only grounds on which Contractor may reject
or refuse an Order are those set out in subparagraph 3.14.3 [Orders are
Obligatory].Unless and until Contractor has approved the Order in ProcureAZ,
it will have no effect under the Contract and will not oblige either State or
Contractor. If the relevant Eligible Agency explicitly instructs at the time that a
verbal acceptance is sufficient because of urgency or other unusual
circumstances and Contractor duly gives its verbal acceptance, then Contractor
will be deemed to have accepted the Order immediately upon commencing
performance, provided that, Contractor must follow-up its verbal acceptance by
accepting the Purchase Order electronically in ProcureAZ within 3(three)
business days. Contractor shall thereafter be barred from subsequently rejecting
the Order in ProcureAZ and if it does so the rejection will be void.

6. Contractor shall acknowledge each Order from Co-Op Buyers in conformance
with each buyer's instructions given at the time of ordering or in any
supplemental participating agreement Contractor might have with them. Orders
from Co-Op Buyers create no obligation on State's part, since they are entirely
between the Co-Op Buyer and Contractor. That notwithstanding, Contractor's
obligation under the Contract is to service Co-Op Buyers commercially as though
they were with an Eligible Agency, and Contractor's refusal to do so would be a
material breach of the Contract.
3.16 Multiple-Use If the Special Terms and Conditions indicate that the Contract is for statewide use,then
Provisions Eligible Agencies may issue Orders for Services in several forms, all of which become
final and effective by a"Release Purchase Order"in ProcureAZ.Orders issued by
Co-Op Buyers will be in whatever form the Co-Op Buyer normally uses. Regardless of
origin, Orders must cite the State contract number to be valid.State may,at its discretion
in each instance, determine the scope, schedule, and price for each Order in any of the
following ways:
1. By choosing some or all of the Materials or Services items covered by the
Contract for which a price is established in the Commercial Document,then
preparing an Order using those prices (e.g., filling out an order form), and
sending it to Contractor.
2. By instructing Contractor to provide a comprehensive proposal of item quantities,
combinations, etc., or services hours, personnel, etc., for a defined scope using
those established prices as a basis,then validating and negotiating the proposal
with Contractor and issuing an Order if and when reaching agreement.
3. As described in(2)above but requesting the proposal from both Contractor and
other vendors who are contracted within the applicable scope categories and
locations, either sequentially or concurrently, then selecting the proposal or
proposals combination that is most advantageous toState.
4. As described in (3) above but introducing ad-hoc commercial competition by
making the selection and ordering conditional on obtaining more favorable prices
than the contractually-established ones.
When evaluating the proposals under (3) and (4) above, State may select based on
price(for example,a quoted number of hours times the contracted or improved rate plus
a fixed amount for incidentals),by experience and qualifications(for example, having an
office nearer the required work location), or whatever combination thereof it determines
is most appropriate to the work in question.
3.17 Other State may undertake with its own forces or award other contracts to the same or other
Contractors vendors for additional or related work. In such cases, Contractor shall cooperate fully
with State's employees and such other vendors and carefully coordinate, fit, connect,
accommodate, adjust, or sequence its work to the related work by others. Where the
Contract requires handing-off Contractor's work to others,Contractor shall cooperate as
State instructs regarding the necessary transfer of its work product,services,or records
to State or the other vendors. Contractor shall not commit or permit any act that
interferes with the State's or other vendors' performance of their work, provided that,
State shall enforce the foregoing section equitably among all its vendors so as not
impose an unreasonable burden on any one of them.
3.18 Work on State 3.18.1 COMPLIANCE WITH RULES. Contractor is responsible for ensuring that its
Premises personnel comply with State's rules, regulations, policies, documented practices, and
documented operating procedures while delivering or installing Materials or performing
Services on State's grounds or in its facilities. For clarity of intent,the foregoing means
that if Contractor is required to comply with certain security requirements in order to
deliver, install,or perform at that particular location,then it shall do so nonetheless and
without entitlement to any additional compensation or additional time for performance if
those particular requirements are not expressly stated in the Contract.Contractor is

breach of contract and grounds for termination for default.
3.18.2 PROTECTION OF GROUNDS AND FACILITIES. Contractor shall deliver or
install the Materials and perform the Services without damaging any State grounds or
facilities.Contractor shall repair or replace any damage it does cause promptly and at its
own expense, subject to whatever instructions and restrictions State needs to make to
prevent inconvenience or disruption of operations. If Contractor fails to make the
necessary repairs or replacements and do so in a timely manner, State will be entitled to
exercise its remedies under paragraph 8.5[Right of Offset].

Publishing and Contract for commercial benefit without the prior written approval of Procurement Officer,

providing one.

4.2 Applicable 4.2.1 CONTRACTOR TO PAY ALL TAXES. State is subject to Arizona TPT.

buyer)will not relieve Contractor of any obligation to remit sales or use taxes that are
due under the Contract or laws. Unless stated otherwise in the Commercial Document,
all prices therein include Arizona TPT as well as every other manner of transaction
privilege or sales/use tax that is due to a municipality or another state or its political
subdivisions. Contractor shall pay all federal, state, and local taxes applicable to its
operations and personnel.
4.2.2 TAX INDEMNITY. Contractor shall hold State harmless from any responsibility
for taxes or contributions, including any applicable damages and interest, that are due
to federal,state,and local authorities with respect to the Work and the Contract,as well
any related costs; the foregoing expressly includes Arizona TPT, unemployment
compensation insurance,social security,and workers'compensation insurance.
4.3 Availability By A.R.S.§35-154,every State payment obligation under the Contract is conditioned on

appropriated and available for continuance of the Contract, State may terminate the
Contract at the end of the period for which funds are available, or, at State's discretion,
allow appropriate amendment to the Contract. No liability will accrue to State if it
exercises the foregoing right or discretion, and State will have no obligation or liability for
any future payments or for any damages as a result of having exercised it. _......................_.

negligence, misconduct, or other fault of the indemnitor, its officers, officials, agents,
employees,or volunteers.

of the delay in the notice and, if the effects of the occurrence are on-going, provide an
initial notification and thereafter the delayed party shall provide regular updates until
such time as the effects are fully known.To the extent it is able,the delayed party shall
cause the delay to cease promptly and notify the other party when it has done so.The

parties shall extend the time of completion by Contract Amendment for a period equal to
the time that the results or effects of the delay prevented the delayed party from
performing.
6.5.3 EXCUSABLE DELAY IS NOT DEFAULT. Failure in performance by either party
will not constitute default hereunder or give rise to any claim for damages or loss of
anticipated profits if and to the extent that such failure was or is being caused by an
occurrence of force majeure.
6.5.4 DEFAULT DIMINISHES RELIEF. Entitlement to relief from the effects of an
occurrence of force majeure is diminished to the extent that the delay did or will result
from the affected party's default unrelated to the occurrence, in which case and to that
extent the other party's normal remedies and the affected party's obligations would apply
undiminished.

RE: Proposal for Comprehensive Asbestos Survey
Fire Station
16821 East Saguaro Boulevard
Fountain Hills, Arizona
Terracon Proposal No: P65187538
Dear Mr. Weldy:
Terracon Consultants, Inc. (Terracon) appreciates the opportunity to submit this proposal to
the Town of Fountain Hills(client)to conduct a Comprehensive Asbestos Survey at the above-
referenced site.
PROJECT INFORMATION •
We understand that the Town of Fountain Hills plans to demolish the fire station located at
16821 East Saguaro Boulevard and desires to know if asbestos-containing material (ACM) is
present which may require special handling and disposal. We understand that the site will be
occupied and that site access for sampling may be accomplished during normal business
hours. If this is not accurate, or if you have additional useful information, please inform us as
soon as possible.
SCOPE OF SERVICES
Pursuant to the client's request, Terracon will perform an asbestos survey at the site as
required by US Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) regulation 40 CFR Part 61,
National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) in general accordance
with the protocols of USEPA regulation 40 CFR Part 763, Asbestos Hazard Emergency
Response Act (AHERA).
Survey activities will include visual observations of the interior and exterior of the building to
identify homogeneous areas of suspect ACM. Building materials identified as unpainted
glass, wood, metal or rubber will not be considered suspect ACM.

Comprehensive Asbestos Survey Proposal lierracon
16821 East Saguaro Blvd.■Fountain Hills,Arizona
Proposal No: P65187538■October 3, 2018
Sample collection will result in some isolated damage to building materials; however, attempts
will be made to limit such damage to the extent necessary for sample collection. Terracon
will not be responsible for repair or touch-up of sample locations. In addition, Terracon will
not perform sampling which requires demolition or destructive activities such as knocking
holes in walls or dismantling of equipment, unless specifically approved by the client prior to
mobilization. Reasonable efforts to access suspect materials within known areas of restricted
access (e.g., crawl spaces) will be made provided these areas are not determined to be
permit-required confined spaces, or to pose a health or safety risk to Terracon personnel.
Sampling will not include suspect materials which cannot be safely reached with available
ladders.
Since roof sampling will be required to complete the survey, the Client is requested to defend
and hold Terracon harmless from subsequent liability and damages that may result. Terracon
will apply a temporary roof patch to sample locations, but the client is advised to retain a
roofing contractor to repair areas damaged by client-requested roof sampling.
Currently, it is anticipated that a total of up to 90 samples may be obtained at the property.
Please note the number of samples to be collected will depend on the homogeneous materials
identified. Current EPA regulations require that a minimum number of samples from each
homogeneous area be obtained in order to characterize a material as non-ACM.
The samples collected will be analyzed by a NVLAP Accredited laboratory for asbestos
content by Polarized Light Microscopy (PLM), using the "Method for the Determination of
Asbestos in Bulk Building Materials" (EPA method 600/R-93/116). The percent of asbestos,
where applicable, will be determined by visual estimation. Normal turnaround time for sample
analysis is five (5) working days; sample time may be reduced for an increased sample
analysis cost. If PLM results merit re-analysis by the more quantitative point counting or TEM
technique, Terracon will contact the client for authorization if additional costs will be incurred.
Terracon will prepare a written report describing the sampling methodology and the results of
the asbestos survey. The report will describe the number, type, and location of suspect ACM
samples, the analytical results,the estimated quantity and the condition of materials identified
as ACM. At the request of the client, drawings depicting the location and extent of ACM and
estimates of ACM removal costs can be provided to the client for an additional fee. Copies of
the laboratory analysis report, the chain of custody, and the laboratory's accreditation
certificates will be appended to the report.
Schedule
The above scope of services may begin within 48 hours following receipt of the executed
Agreement for Services, provided that site access can be obtained. A standard laboratory
turnaround of approximately 5 working days will be requested for the analysis. Preliminary
results can be provided in advance of our report once the final lab reports are received. We

anticipate delivery of the final report approximately 10-15 working days after completion of the
sampling. This written report will reflect final results, findings and recommendations, and as
such, will take precedence over any verbal reports that Terracon personnel may have
provided.
In order to complete the project in accordance with this proposal the following items need to
be provided by the Client at the time of project authorization:
a A signed Agreement for Services evidencing acceptance of the scope of services
a Right of entry to conduct the field work, including access to all interior areas
a Notification of any restrictions or special requirements (such as confidentiality,
scheduling, or on-site safety requirements) regarding accessing the site
a It is assumed site work may be completed during normal business hours
a Any restrictions or special access requirements regarding the site shall be made
known to Terracon prior to site mobilization.
a Client will provide, if available, building plans in AutoCAD or Adobe PDF format.
Reliance
The Report will be prepared for the exclusive use and reliance of the Client. Reliance by any
other party is prohibited without the written authorization of Client and Terracon.
If the Client is aware of additional parties that will require reliance on the Report, the names,
addresses and relationship of these parties should be provided for Terracon approval prior to
the time of authorization to proceed. Terracon will grant reliance on the Report to those
approved parties upon receipt of a fully executed Reliance Agreement (available upon
request). For a period of one year after the report date, the Client and Terracon will consent
to reliance on the Report by a third party. During the one-year period, Terracon will grant
reliance upon receipt of a fully executed Reliance Agreement and receipt of an additional fee
of$250.00 per relying party.
Reliance on the Report by the Client and all authorized parties will be subject to the terms,
conditions and limitations stated in the Agreement for Services (and sections of this proposal
incorporated therein), the Reliance Agreement, and the Report.
C. COMPENSATION
The work for this proposal will be performed in accordance with the terms of
Terracon's State of Arizona Contract Number#ADEQ18-186320. The fee is valid for 90
days from the date of this proposal and is based on the assumption that site access will be
available. We assume field services will be performed under OSHA safety Level D personal

protective procedures, and that one mobilization will be made by Terracon personnel. The
fee is based on the assumptions and conditions provided at the time of this proposal.
We estimate the time and materials fees for the outlined survey work will be $2,985.95. This
cost includes the collection and PLM analysis of up to 90 bulk samples. If additional bulk
asbestos samples are required to complete the survey, the client will be notified, and the
additional samples will be billed at a rate of$8/sample.
If this proposal meets with your approval, work may be initiated once we have received,
reviewed, and acceptance of a mutually agreed upon contract.
We appreciate the opportunity to provide this proposal and look forward to working with you
on this project. In addition to asbestos services, our professionals provide geotechnical,
environmental, construction materials, and facilities services on a wide variety of projects
locally, regionally and nationally. For more detailed information on all of Terracon's services
please visit our web site at www.terracon.com . If you have any questions or comments
regarding this proposal or require additional services, please contact the undersigned.
Sincerely,
