Re: Environmental Services; Wetlands Delineation and Reporting
Nashua Mine Falls Trail Project; Nashua, New Hampshire
Dear Mr. James:
TES Environmental Consultants, L.L.C. (TES) is pleased to submit to you this proposal for wetland
delineation and related services associated with the proposed trail and pedestrian bridge associated with
the Nashua Mine Falls Trail Project off of Ledge Street in the City of Nashua. The specific services to
be provided are identified in the following list, consolidated from the required services list provided by
you in an e-mail communication dated May 14, 2016. These services relate to the survey request area
identified on an aerial photograph that you provided along with the list of required services.
1. Delineate wetlands within the project area; provide a sketch of the flagged wetland boundaries to
Hoyle, Tanner & Associates, Inc. (HTA) to guide the field survey; and stamp and sign plans as
Certified Wetland Scientist.
2. Prepare and submit to HTA a letter report on the wetland delineation methodology, the U.S. Fish
and Wildlife Service classification of the wetlands, the vegetation present in the wetlands, a
qualitative description of the functions and values of the wetlands using U.S. Army Corps of
Engineers methodology (a full functional evaluation is assumed to not be necessary for a project
of the modest scale of this proposed trail and pedestrian bridge), identification and description of
any vernal pools within or adjacent to the survey area, and representative photographs of all
wetlands and vernal pools within the survey area.
3. Assess the project survey limits for the presence of invasive species of vegetation identified in
the NH DOT Best Management Practices for Roadside Invasivd Plants; provide a letter report
describing the invasive species present (if any); and provide recommendations for appropriate
method(s) of their control.
The budget for this scope of work will be a not-to-exceed fee of $1,200.00. I am prepared to complete
the field portion of the project by May 25, 2016. Thank you for the opportunity to provide this proposal
to you.
Very truly yours,
TES Environmental Consultants, L.L.C.
