During the last three year agreement the Solid Waste Department has had to seek
amendments to the contract to cover the costs for non-routine groundwater tasks
that may occur for the Four Hills Landfill (e.g., responding to comment letters
prepared the NHDES), or data review, analysis, summary, and reporting
associated with non-routine groundwater monitoring (i.e., not included in the
scope of Permit required monitoring). As a result the department is seeking
approval for up to an additional $120,000 yearly as a contingency for these non-
routine tasks bringing the total potential annual cost to $220,000. The Solid
Waste Department will request individual task and budget estimate letters before
authorizing SHA to proceed.
Sanborn Head has provided the required certificate of insurance to accomplish
these services.
The Solid Waste Superintendent and the Environmental Engineer recommend
awarding Sanborn Head and Associates of Concord, NH a three contract for these
services.
