Mr. Shaun Jevne Maintenance Supervisor City of Greenbush PO Box 98, 244 Main Street North Greenbush, Minnesota 56726 RE: Proposal for a 10-Year Service Agreement to Perform Inspection Services on the 75,000-Gallon Elevated Water Tower Located in the City of Greenbush, Minnesota. Dear Mr. Jevne: KLM is pleased to submit this proposal for a service agreement for the 75,000-gallon elevated water tower located in the City of Greenbush, Minnesota for a 10-year period, with the first inspection on or before December 31, 2020. KLM proposes to perform a cleanout and an inspection of the existing conditions of the tower on a 5-year cycle. By choosing KLM Engineering, Inc., the City of Greenbush is investing in the knowledge and expertise of a consultant who will perform an accurate and unbiased inspection of your water tower. Our inspections will clearly identify all the maintenance requirements of the tower and recommend when additional maintenance of the tower may be appropriate. The experience of KLM’s staff in water tank inspections is enhanced by our training as National Association of Corrosion Engineers (NACE) Certified Coatings Inspectors and American Welding Society (AWS) Certified Welding Inspectors. This training, plus the years of field experience in abrasive blasting (surface preparation) painting, rigging, welding, and inspection has given this company a competitive edge for performing this type of work in a safe and professional manner. Documentation KLM will provide a full report for the Owner in 2020. KLM will provide a summary report to the owner in 2025 and 2030. These reports will provide the following benefits:
Full Report: 1. Clearly stating the actual condition of the coatings and structural integrity. 2. Identify the amount of sediment and estimate the next time it needs cleaning. 3. Provide a schedule for performing recommended maintenance work. 4. Provide a Cost Estimate for all recommended repair work. 5. Color photographs substantiate details of the report. 6. Copies of the report justify maintenance recommendations to decision-makers. 7. The inspection report can be included in the specification document to provide accurate
information on existing conditions for bidders. 8. Recommendation of future inspections. 9. KLM will also provide drawings in the report for future maintenance.

Summary Report 1. Clearly stating the actual condition of the coatings and structural integrity. 2. Document the amount of sediment that was removed from the tower. 3. Provide a schedule for performing recommended maintenance work. 4. Color photographs substantiate details of the report. 5. Copies of the report justify maintenance recommendations to decision-makers
The inspection report will be provided to the City in digital format (PDF) unless indicated to KLM otherwise. After the City receives the report, KLM will follow up to breakdown our discoveries detailed out in the report. KLM Work Plan Dry Tank Cleanout Inspection The dry tank inspection is the method recommended by AWWA M 42 D101-53 (R1986) Part A. However, this method of inspection is limited to areas accessible from a ladder or areas that can be reached from the floor. KLM will inspect the floor, the reservoir walls, and any interior structure accessible by ladders. All accessible exterior surfaces, including the roof, will also be inspected. KLM will measure and photograph all areas that need to be included in the inspection report. KLM will also remove any sediment inside the tower. When the tower is empty, KLM will perform a clean-out of the tower interior of the tower and riser. KLM will disinfect the tank in accordance with Method 1, 2, or 3 of AWWA C652-11. KLM will supply the chlorine and do the clean-out of the bottom. Exterior and Interior Inspection The exterior inspection is critical for evaluating the coating conditions to determine whether the coating is a candidate for over coating or complete reconditioning. KLM inspectors will also check for structural deficiencies and OSHA compliance. KLM will provide a NACE Coatings Inspector that is properly trained and qualified to perform this type of inspection. The exterior will be inspected from all areas accessible without rigging unless otherwise written into this agreement. Coating conditions of both the interior and exterior will be examined using several different testing equipment. Owner's Responsibilities Dry Tank Cleanout Inspection The Owner’s personnel shall be responsible for: Verifying the tower is empty prior to arrival of inspectors. Disposing of sediment removed from the tower. Providing copies of background information on the tower, including maintenance
records, construction drawings, previous inspection reports, and previous painting or reconditioning specifications. It is especially helpful if this information is collected prior to KLM’s personnel beginning its inspection.
Take water samples after the cleanout of the tower has been completed.
Greenbush, Minnesota-10-Year Service Agreement 3
10 Year Service Agreement The purpose of a 10-year service agreement is for KLM to perform a dry tank inspection and clean the sediment out of the tower in 2020, 2025 and 2030.
75,000 Gallon Water Tower Year of Inspections Scope of Work Price Report By December 31, 2020 Dry Tank Cleanout Inspection $3,000.00 Full Report By December 31, 2025 Dry Tank Cleanout Inspection $3,300.00 Summary Report By December 31, 2030 Dry Tank Cleanout Inspection $3,600.00 Summary Report
Total Price: $9,900.00 If for some reason beyond KLM’s control, the inspection of the tower cannot be performed in one day, and KLM must return for a second day to complete the inspection, the cost of a second day of inspection would be on a time & materials basis. KLM can replace the existing manway gasket(s) for a time and materials fee per gasket. A tower that has excess sediment and requires more than 2 hours of cleaning time may result in extra charges above and beyond the original Agreement amount. Fees are subject to change if proposed work exceeds 12 months from this bid proposal. *KLM will not bill the City of Greenbush in a lump sum. KLM will bill the City of Greenbush once the owner receives the report for that individual year. Terms & Conditions KLM has attached our standard Terms & Conditions.

$8,650.00
Inspection of tank(s) will be for compliance with the following codes and standards:
AWWA, EPA, NFPA, NFPA22, NFPA25, OSHA, TSS
STEP 1: Perform Interior Inspection
• Please note, our ROV unit requires, at minimum, a 12” diameter manway/opening.
• The interior in-service inspection will be performed using our ROV Inspection Robot and the exterior will be inspected by our personnel trained in OSHA regulations utilizing fall protection equipment. Tank is to remain full during internal inspection.
• This inspection will check for deficiencies and meet tank inspection requirements of OSHA, EPA, AWWA and NFPA. All structural, sanitary, safety, security and coating conditions will be reviewed. Items examined will include ladders, shell, roof, vent, manways, welds, seams, foundation, anchors, safety systems, hatch, and external overflow. Any emergency items will be brought to Owner’s attention by our Inspector personnel.
• Owner will receive a detailed written report of findings with photographs, DVD of inspection, corrective recommendations and cost estimates.
• The following tests shall be performed during the inspection: Lead check – Interior & Exterior, Mil thickness test (coating thickness) – Exterior only, Cross hatch test (paint adhesion) – Exterior only, Ultra-sonic test of tank shell – Exterior only
STEP 2: Perform Interior Clean Out An interior in-service cleanout of sediment from the tank floor is not to exceed three (3) inches. Additional accumulation will be priced at
$300/hour after 3”. The interior cleanout will be performed using our Remotely Controlled Submersible Vehicle. The tank cannot have more than 16’ of open head space from the top of the water to the top of the tank during the internal cleanout. Our price is based on dimensions acquired from the Customer, who understands that if the size of the tank is larger than implied, our price will be adjusted accordingly.
• Debris and sediment will be placed on the ground or in a customer designated drainage area within 50’ of the tank base. The customer is to provide an area for disposal of all debris, sediment and water generated from the robotic cleanout.
• The majority of sediment will be removed from the tank with the robotic equipment; however the customer understands that 100% removal of sediment and debris cannot be attained without draining the tank.
• Please note that our ROV cleanout robot requires at least a 24” (round or square) opening.
• If the interior access ladder impedes the manway and restricts access to the tank interior with our ROV cleanout robot, the Owner agrees that the top few rungs may be removed to gain access to the tank as long as the structural integrity of the interior access ladder will not be compromised.
• If any other tank accessories impede the opening, the Owner agrees that necessary modifications may be made, which will be in accordance with AWWA, to gain access to the tank.
• In the event in becomes necessary to drain the tank once we are on site, draining shall be performed by the Owner.
