PROJECT INFORMATION AND SCOPE OF SERVICES
Project Description
ECS understands the subject property is located at 251 Elkhorn Rd in Williams Bay, Walworth County,
Wisconsin 53191. According to the Walworth County Online Geographic Information Systems (GIS)
website, the subject property identified as Parcel Identification Numbers (PIN) WWUP 00049 and
WWUP 00048 is owned by the VILLAGE OF WILLIAMS BAY.The subject property also includes portions
of the existing pathway that is also located within a 33’ wide Village right-of-way easement on PIN
WWUP 00045 and PIN WWUP 00046.Based on available information, the subject properties are
currently developed with a bike path, outside and inside storage, boat rigging area, and municipal
parking lot. The path (subject property) is outlined in black in the image below.
Scope of Services
ECS proposes the following scope of services, and optional services, that may be selected by the client
on the enclosed Proposal Acceptance Form.

Phase I Environmental Site Assessment
The Phase I Environmental Site Assessment (ESA) will be prepared in general accordance with ASTM
Standard E1527-21, Standard Practice for Phase I Environmental Site Assessments. We note that
there may be some instances which require an adjustment to the quoted price for this Phase I ESA
if supplemental investigation, additional lender requirements or other services, beyond the scope
outlined in this proposal, are requested.We would notify you in advance if these additional services
would result in increased fees.
To expedite the preparation of the Phase I ESA, please provide ECS with the following:
1. Copies of updated site plans/plots which you may have available;
2. A point of contact for site access;
3. A current chain-of-ownership for the subject property (preferably dating back to 1940 or
earlier);
4. The name and telephone number of the current owner so that ECS may conduct an
interview; and,
5. A completed User Questionnaire (blank form for your use is attached).
In accordance with the ASTM protocol, it is the obligation of the "User" (i.e., the party relying on the
report) to report to the environmental professional (i.e., ECS) any environmental liens encumbering
the property or any specialized knowledge or experience of the User that would provide information
about previous ownership or uses of the property that may be material to identifying recognized
environmental conditions. Based on this, ECS requests any previous environmental information
related to the property.
We have attached the User Questionnaire to assist the User and the environmental professional (ECS)
in gathering information from the User that may be material to identifying recognized environmental
conditions with respect to the site.As the User of the report, please complete the attached User
Questionnaire and return it with the signed proposal. The User Questionnaire should be completed by the
User of the Phase I ESA, which is the party to whom the report is addressed. ECS will conduct a separate
interview with the property owner (assuming owner contact information is provided). We request that the
User Questionnaire be completed and returned to ECS at the same time this proposal is authorized to
avoid delays in delivering the final report. All answers on the User Questionnaire should be provided
only to the best of your current knowledge; completion of the User Questionnaire should not require
additional research by the User or inquiry to the current property owner. ECS will conduct a separate
interview with the current property owner. This User Questionnaire will be included in the Phase I
ESA Report and will assist in satisfying the “User’s Responsibilities” portion of the ASTM Standard.
ECS will prepare one Phase I ESA Report for the subject property. A copy of the report will be
forwarded electronically upon completion of the project.
Optional Services:
Environmental Lien and Activity and Use Limitation Search
Baxter & Woodman
Consulting Engineers
53:10423
ECS Midwest, LLC
Page 2
Page 31 of 194
In addition, the ASTM standard also requires a search for the existence of environmental liens
and activity and use limitations (AULs) in accordance with 40 CFR Part 312. If this information
is not readily available, ECS can contract with a third party provider to conduct this search for
an additional fee. It should be noted that failure to obtain this information may preclude your
ability to qualify for certain liability protections under CERCLA. Please indicate on the attached
authorization page if you would prefer ECS to obtain this information on your behalf for an
additional fee of $450 per parcel.(The ASTM E1527-21 standard allows the user to utilize title
commitment reports, title insurance, or other equivalent title research in lieu of a specific Lien
and AUL search. If such documents are available, please transmit them to ECS prior to the
completion of the Phase I ESA report.)
Engineering Grant Assistance
The completion of Environmental Hazards Assessment WDNR Form 1800-001 is included in this task.
Please note that this form must be completed and approved by the Department of Natural Resources
(DNR) before grant funds can be expended for land acquisition and development projects.Please
note that ECS will provide the completed form to you for your submittal to the DNR.
Additionally, up to 8 hours has been budgeted for engineering grant assistance for this task to be
billed at a rate of $175/hour. Please note that the number of hours is an estimate and ECS will only
bill for the number of hours actually needed for this task. Any additional hours needed will be billed
at the same daily rate above with prior approval from the client.
Out of Scope Items
If, during the performance of our scope of services, additional environmental issues are identified
that are beyond the Scope of Services outlined within this proposal, ECS may contact Baxter &
Woodman Consulting Engineers to discuss the relevance and significance of the finding in order to
determine if the finding merits additional assessment, inclusion in our final report, or a modification
to our Scope of Services and fee.
Safety
ECS personnel are responsible for their own personal safety. While on site, if ECS personnel deem
a condition unsafe and the performance of our scope of services cannot be completed, you will be
notified of the unsafe condition. ECS personnel will not proceed further with the scope of services in
that area until the unsafe condition is corrected.Access delays associated with safety concerns may
result in additional fees.
PROJECT FEES AND SCHEDULE
Project Fees
ECS will provide the proposed scope of services for the lump sum fees indicated on the attached
Proposal Acceptance Formand based upon the service level selected by the Client. Our fees are
based on the chain of title, third party AUL search and property owner/contact information being
provided by you or your agents, unless otherwise indicated.

Meetings and Conference Calls
Meetings and conference callsrequested by Baxter & Woodman Consulting Engineers beyond the
Scope of Servicesproposed will be invoiced on a time and materials basis. Meetings after typical office
hours (Monday through Friday 8 am to 5 pm) will be invoiced at 1.5 times the normal rate.
Project Schedule
We anticipate that a standard Phase I ESA can be completed within15 business days from
authorization to proceed provided that site access is grantedpromptly. We will proceed with the
accepted services upon receipt of written authorization. If this schedule does not meet your needs,
please contact ECS to discuss an expedited deadline.Expedited (10 business day) delivery is also
provided as an option on the attached Proposal Acceptance Form.
If areas of the property cannot be observed due to inaccessibility or unsafe conditions beyond the
control of ECS, ECS will wait until such time either that the area is accessible or the unsafe conditions
are corrected. If ECS must make additional visits to the site, a change order will be provided for our
additional fees.
If other items are required because of unexpected field conditions encountered in our fieldwork,
or because of a request for additional services,they would be invoiced as an agreed-to lump sum
fee or in accordance with the ECS Fee Schedule (available upon request) in effect at the time of the
service. Before expanding our scope of service that increased our fee, you would be informed of our
intentions for both your review and authorization.
LIMITATIONS AND ASSUMPTIONS
Conclusions and recommendations pertaining to environmental conditions at the subject site are
limited to the conditions observedat the time this study will be undertaken. The assessment is not
intended to represent an exhaustive research of every potential hazard or condition that may exist,
nor does it claim to represent conditions or events that arise after the assessment.
We have made the following assumptions in developing this proposal:
• Prices presented herein are valid for 120 days from the date of this proposal.
• One color electronic version (PDF format) of the report(s) will be provided upon completion
of the project. Bound reports can be provided for an additional fee.
• If client-provided information is submitted to ECS after our ESA report has been issued,
additional labor fees may be invoiced to review to data, to edit our report, and to reissue
our report. Please provide any available due diligence information at the beginning of the
project.
• Please note that ASTM standard indicates that regulatory agency files available for the
subject property or adjoining properties should be reviewed and failure to do so may result
in data gaps in our report. The lump sum fee offered for the Phase I ESA does not include
expanded reviews of regulatory files for the subject site and/or adjacent properties which
are not available electronically, or if the file information may not be reasonably ascertainable
within the project schedule. If the subject property and/or adjacent properties are identified

on federal or state regulatory lists, and if a file review is warranted, ECS will contact you.
An additional fee may be necessary depending on the location and volume of information
pertaining to these regulatory files.
• If requested, ECS can provide reliance letters for our reportsfor an additional fee of $500
per letter/entity. Future reliance offered by ECS would be bound to ECS's standard Terms
and Conditions. (Note: Additional fees may apply for client-requested reliance language that
needs to be reviewed and approved by ECS legal counsel.Client-supplied reliance language
beyond the ECS standard reliance letter may not be approved by ECS's legal counsel.)

The professional services (the “Services”) to be provided by ECS MIDWEST, LLC (“ECS”) pursuant to the Proposal shall be provided in accordance with these Terms and
Conditions of Service (“Terms”), including any addenda as may be incorporated or referenced in writing and shall form the Agreement between ECS and CLIENT.
1.0 INDEPENDENT CONSULTANT STATUS - ECS shall serve as an independent professional consultant to CLIENT for Services on the Project and shall have control over,
and responsibility for, the means and methods for providing the Services identified in the Proposal, including the retention of Subcontractors and Subconsultants
2.0 SCOPE OF SERVICES - It is understood that the fees, reimbursable expenses and time schedule defined in the Proposal are based on information provided by CLIENT
and/or CLIENT’S, agents, contractors and consultants (“Contractors”). CLIENT acknowledges that if this information is not current, is incomplete or inaccurate, if conditions
are discovered that could not be reasonably foreseen, or if CLIENT orders additional services, the scope of services will change, even while the Services are in progress.
3.0 STANDARD OF CARE
3.1 In fulfilling its obligations and responsibilities enumerated in the Proposal, ECS shall be expected to comply with and its performance evaluated in light of the
standard of care expected of professionals in the industry performing similar services on projects of like size and complexity at that time in the region (the
“Standard of Care”). Nothing contained in the Proposal, the agreed-upon scope of Services, these Terms or any ECS report, opinion, plan or other document
prepared by ECS shall constitute a warranty or guarantee of any nature whatsoever.
3.2 CLIENT understands and agrees that ECS will rely on the facts learned from data gathered during performance of Services as well as those facts provided by the CLIENT
and/or CLIENT’S contractors and consultants. CLIENT acknowledges that such data collection is limited to specific areas that are sampled, bored, tested, observed and/or
evaluated. Consequently, CLIENT waives any and all claims based upon erroneous facts provided by the CLIENT, facts subsequently learned or regarding conditions in
areas not specifically sampled, bored, tested, observed or evaluated by ECS.

regulations or codes, or will expose ECS to legal claims or charges, ECS shall so advise CLIENT. If ECS’s professional judgment is rejected, ECS shall have the right to
terminate its Services in accordance with the provisions of Section 25.0, below.
3.4 If CLIENT decides to disregard ECS’s recommendations with respect to complying with applicable laws or regulations, ECS shall determine if applicable law requires ECS

to rely on such information for completeness and accuracy without further investigation, analysis, or evaluation.
4.2 “Hazardous Materials” shall include but not be limited to any substance that poses or may pose a present or potential hazard to human health or the environment whether
contained in a product, material, by-product, waste, or sample, and whether it exists in a solid, liquid, semi-solid or gaseous form. CLIENT shall notify ECS of any known,
assumed, or suspected regulated, contaminated, or other similar Hazardous Materials that may exist at the Site prior to ECS mobilizing to the Site.
4.3 If any Hazardous Materials are discovered or are reasonably suspected by ECS after its Services begin, ECS shall be entitled to amend the scope of Services and adjust
its fees or fee schedule to reflect any additional work or personal protective equipment and/or safety precautions required by the existence of such Hazardous Materials.
5.0 INFORMATION PROVIDED BY OTHERS - CLIENT waives, releases and discharges ECS from and against any claim for damage, injury or loss allegedly arising out of
or in connection with errors, omissions, or inaccuracies in documents and other information in any form provided to ECS by CLIENT or CLIENT’s Contractors, including
such information that becomes incorporated into ECS documents.
6.0 CONCEALED RISKS - CLIENT acknowledges that special risks are inherent in sampling, testing and/or evaluating concealed conditions that are hidden from view and/or
neither readably apparent nor easily accessible, e.g., subsurface conditions, conditions behind a wall, beneath a floor, or above a ceiling. Such circumstances require that
certain assumptions be made regarding existing conditions, which may not be verifiable without expending additional sums of money or destroying otherwise adequate or
serviceable portions of a building or component thereof. Accordingly, ECS shall not be responsible for the verification of such conditions unless verification can be made
by simple visual observation. CLIENT agrees to bear any and all costs, losses, damages and expenses (including, but not limited to, the cost of ECS’s additional services)
in any way arising from or in connection with the existence or discovery of such concealed or unknown conditions.
7.0 RIGHT OF ENTRY/DAMAGE RESULTING FROM SERVICES
7.1 CLIENT warrants that it possesses the authority to grant ECS right of entry to the site for the performance of Services. CLIENT hereby grants ECS and its agents,
subcontractors and/or subconsultants (“Subconsultants”), the right to enter from time to time onto the property in order for ECS to perform its Services. CLIENT agrees to
indemnify and hold ECS and its Subconsultants harmless from any claims arising from allegations that ECS trespassed or lacked authority to access the Site.
7.2 CLIENT warrants that it possesses all necessary permits, licenses and/or utility clearances for the Services to be provided by ECS except where ECS’s Proposal explicitly
states that ECS will obtain such permits, licenses, and/or utility clearances.
7.3 ECS will take reasonable precautions to limit damage to the Site and its improvements during the performance of its Services. CLIENT understands that the use of
exploration, boring, sampling, or testing equipment may cause damage to the Site. The correction and restoration of such common damage is CLIENT’S responsibility
unless specifically included in ECS’s Proposal.
7.4 CLIENT agrees that it will not bring any claims for liability or for injury or loss against ECS arising from (i) procedures associated with the exploration, sampling or testing
activities at the Site, (ii) discovery of Hazardous Materials or suspected Hazardous Materials, or (iii) ECS’s findings, conclusions, opinions, recommendations, plans, and/or
specifications related to discovery of contamination.
8.0 UNDERGROUND UTILITIES
8.1 ECS shall exercise the Standard of Care in evaluating client-furnished information as well as information readily and customarily available from public utility locating
services (the “Underground Utility Information”) in its effort to identify underground utilities. The extent of such evaluations shall be at ECS’s sole discretion.
8.2 CLIENT recognizes that the Underground Utility Information provided to or obtained by ECS may contain errors or be incomplete. CLIENT understands that ECS may be
unable to identify the locations of all subsurface utility lines and man-made features. CLIENT shall notify ECS in writing of any private utilities or nonferrous piping that
would not be found with standard magnetic detection devices. CLIENT shall be charged an additional fee if ECS is requested to use ground penetrating radar in an effort
to locating underground utilities or structures.
8.3 CLIENT shall indemnify, defend, and hold ECS harmless from and against any claim for damage, injury or loss allegedly arising from or related to subterranean structures
(pipes, tanks, cables, or other utilities, etc.) which are not called to ECS’s attention in writing by CLIENT, not correctly shown on the Underground Utility Information and/or
not properly marked or located by the utility owners, governmental or quasi-governmental locators, or private utility locating services as a result of ECS’s or ECS’s
Subconsultant’s request for utility marking services made in accordance with local industry standards.
9.0 SAMPLES
9.1 Soil, rock, water, building materials and/or other samples and sampling by-products obtained from the Site are and remain the property of CLIENT. Unless other
arrangements are requested by CLIENT and mutually agreed upon by ECS in writing, ECS will retain samples not consumed in laboratory testing for up to sixty (60)
calendar days after the first issuance of any document containing data obtained from such samples. Samples consumed by laboratory testing procedures will not be stored.
9.2 Unless CLIENT directs otherwise, and excluding those issues covered in Section 10.0, CLIENT authorizes ECS to dispose of CLIENT’S non-hazardous samples and
sampling or testing by-products in accordance with applicable laws and regulations.
10.0 ENVIRONMENTAL RISKS
10.1 When Hazardous Materials are known, assumed, suspected to exist, or discovered at the Site, ECS will endeavor to protect its employees and address public health,
safety, and environmental issues in accordance with the Standard of Care. CLIENT agrees to compensate ECS for such efforts.
Page 39 of 194
Page 2 of 4 Ver. 01/01/2026
10.2 When Hazardous Materials are known, assumed, or suspected to exist, or discovered at the Site, ECS and/or ECS’s subcontractors will exercise the Standard of Care in
containerizing and labeling such Hazardous Materials in accordance with applicable laws and regulations, and will leave the containers on Site. CLIENT is responsible for
the retrieval, removal, transport and disposal of such contaminated samples, and sampling process byproducts in accordance with applicable law and regulation.
10.3 Unless explicitly stated in the Scope of Services, ECS will neither subcontract for nor arrange for the transport, disposal, or treatment of Hazardous Materials. At CLIENT’S
written request, ECS may assist CLIENT in identifying appropriate alternatives for transport, off-site treatment, storage, or disposal of such substances, but CLIENT shall
be solely responsible for the final selection of methods and firms to provide such services. CLIENT shall sign all manifests for the disposal of substances affected by
contaminants and shall otherwise exercise prudence in arranging for lawful disposal.
10.4 In those instances where ECS is expressly retained by CLIENT to assist CLIENT in the disposal of Hazardous Materials, samples, or wastes as part of the Proposal, ECS
shall do so only as CLIENT’S agent (notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary). ECS will not assume the role of, nor be considered a generator,
storer, transporter, or disposer of Hazardous Materials.
10.5 Subsurface sampling may result in unavoidable cross-contamination of certain subsurface areas, as when a probe or excavation/boring device moves through a
contaminated zone and links it to an aquifer, underground stream, pervious soil stratum, or other hydrous body not previously contaminated, or connects an uncontaminated
zone with a contaminated zone. Because sampling is an essential element of the Services indicated herein, CLIENT agrees this risk cannot be eliminated. Provided such
services were performed in accordance with the Standard of Care, CLIENT waives, releases and discharges ECS from and against any claim for damage, injury, or loss
allegedly arising from or related to such cross-contamination.
10.6 CLIENT understands that a Phase I Environmental Site Assessment (ESA) is conducted solely to permit ECS to render a professional opinion about the likelihood of the
site having a Recognized Environmental Condition on, in, beneath, or near the Site at the time the Services are conducted. No matter how thorough a Phase I ESA study
may be, findings derived from its conduct are highly limited and ECS cannot know or state for an absolute fact that the Site is unaffected or adversely affected by one or
more Recognized Environmental Conditions. CLIENT represents and warrants that it understands the limitations associated with Phase I ESAs.
11.0 OWNERSHIP OF DOCUMENTS
11.1 ECS shall be deemed the author and owner (or licensee) of all documents, technical reports, letters, photos, boring logs, field data, field notes, laboratory test data,
calculations, designs, plans, specifications, reports, or similar documents and estimates of any kind furnished by it [the “Documents of Service”] and shall retain all common
law, statutory and other reserved rights, including copyrights. CLIENT shall have a limited, non-exclusive license to use copies of the Documents of Service provided to it
in connection with its Project for which the Documents of Service are provided until the completion of the Project.
11.2 ECS’s Services are performed, and Documents of Service are provided for the CLIENT’S sole use. CLIENT understands and agrees that any use of the Documents of
Service by anyone other than the CLIENT and its Contractors is not permitted. CLIENT further agrees to indemnify and hold ECS harmless for any errors, omissions or
damage resulting from its contractors’ use of ECS’s Documents of Service.
11.3 Without ECS’s prior written consent, CLIENT agrees to not use ECS’s Documents of Service for the Project if the Project is subsequently modified in scope, structure or
purpose. Any reuse without ECS’s written consent shall be at CLIENT’S sole risk and without liability to ECS or its Subconsultants. CLIENT agrees to indemnify and hold
ECS harmless for any errors, omissions or Damage resulting from its use of ECS’s Documents of Service after any modification in scope, structure or purpose.
11.4 CLIENT agrees to not make any modification to the Documents of Service without the prior written authorization of ECS. To the fullest extent permitted by law, CLIENT
agrees to indemnify, defend, and hold ECS harmless from any damage, loss, claim, liability or cost (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and defense costs) arising out of
or in connection with any unauthorized modification of the Documents of Service by CLIENT or any person or entity that acquires or obtains the Documents of Service
from or through CLIENT. CLIENT represents and warrants that the Documents of Service shall be used only as submitted by ECS.
12.0 SAFETY
12.1 Unless expressly agreed to in writing in its Proposal, CLIENT agrees that ECS shall have no responsibility whatsoever for any aspect of site safety other than for its own
employees. Nothing herein shall be construed to relieve CLIENT and/or its Contractors from their responsibility for site safety. CLIENT also represents and warrants that
the General Contractor is solely responsible for Project site safety and that ECS personnel may rely on the safety measures provided by the General Contractor.
12.2 In the event ECS assumes in writing limited responsibility for specified safety issues, the acceptance of such responsibilities does not and shall not be deemed an
acceptance of responsibility for any other non-specified safety issues, including, but not limited to those relating to excavating, fall protection, shoring, drilling, backfilling,
blasting, or other construction activities.
13.0 CONSTRUCTION TESTING AND REMEDIATION SERVICES
13.1 CLIENT understands that construction testing and observation services are provided in an effort to reduce, but cannot eliminate, the risk of problems arising during or after
construction or remediation. CLIENT agrees that the provision of such Services does not create a warranty or guarantee of any type.
13.2 Monitoring and/or testing services provided by ECS shall not in any way relieve the CLIENT’S contractor(s) from their responsibilities and obligations for the quality or
completeness of construction as well as their obligation to comply with applicable laws, codes, and regulations.
13.3 ECS has no responsibility whatsoever for the means, methods, techniques, sequencing or procedures of construction selected, for safety precautions and programs
incidental to work or services provided by any contractor or other consultant. ECS does not and shall not have or accept authority to supervise, direct, control, or stop the
work of any of CLIENT’S Contractors or any of their subcontractors.
13.4 ECS strongly recommends that CLIENT retain ECS to provide construction monitoring and testing services on a full-time basis to lower the risk of defective or incomplete
work being installed by CLIENT’S Contractors. If CLIENT elects to retain ECS on a part-time or on-call basis for any aspect of construction monitoring and/or testing,
CLIENT accepts the risk that a lower level of construction quality may occur and that defective or incomplete work may result and not be detected by ECS’s part time
monitoring and testing in exchange for CLIENT’S receipt of an immediate cost savings. Unless the CLIENT can show that ECS’s errors or omissions are contained in
ECS’s reports, CLIENT waives, releases and discharges ECS from and against any other claims for errors, omissions, damages, injuries, or loss alleged to arise from
defective or incomplete work that was monitored or tested by ECS on a part-time or on-call basis. Except as set forth in the preceding sentence, CLIENT agrees to
indemnify and hold ECS harmless from all Damages, costs, and attorneys’ fees, for any claims alleging errors, omissions, damage, injury or loss allegedly resulting from
work that was monitored or tested by ECS on a part-time or on-call basis.
14.0 CERTIFICATIONS - CLIENT may request, or governing jurisdictions may require, ECS to provide a “certification” regarding the Services provided by ECS. Any
“certification” required of ECS by the CLIENT or jurisdiction(s) having authority over some or all aspects of the Project shall consist of ECS’s inferences and professional
opinions based on the limited sampling, observations, tests, and/or analyses performed by ECS at discrete locations and times. Such “certifications” shall constitute ECS’s
professional opinion of a condition's existence, but ECS does not guarantee that such condition exists, nor does it relieve other parties of the responsibilities or obligations
such parties have with respect to the possible existence of such a condition. CLIENT agrees it cannot make the resolution of any dispute with ECS or payment of any
amount due to ECS contingent upon ECS signing any such “certification.”
15.0 BILLINGS AND PAYMENTS
15.1 Billings will be based on the unit rates, plus travel costs, and other reimbursable expenses as stated in the professional fees section of the Proposal. Any estimate of
professional fees stated shall not be considered as a not-to-exceed or lump sum amount unless otherwise explicitly stated. CLIENT understands and agrees that even if
ECS agrees to a lump sum or not-to-exceed amount, that amount shall be limited to number of hours, visits, trips, tests, borings, or samples stated in the Proposal.
15.2 CLIENT agrees that all professional fees and other unit rates may be adjusted annually to account for inflation based on the most recent 12-month average of the Consumer
Price Index (CPI-U) for all items as established by www.bls.gov when the CPI-U exceeds an annual rate of one percent (1%).
15.3 Should ECS identify a Changed Condition(s), ECS shall notify the CLIENT of the Changed Condition(s). ECS and CLIENT shall promptly and in good faith negotiate an
amendment to the scope of Services, professional fees, and time schedule.
15.4 CLIENT recognizes that time is of the essence with respect to payment of ECS’s invoices, and that timely payment is a material consideration for this Agreement. All
payment shall be in U.S. funds drawn upon U.S. banks and in accordance with the rates and charges set forth in the professional Fees. Invoices are due and payable
upon receipt. The parties acknowledge and agree that any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or related to failure of CLIENT to pay ECS’s invoices pursuant to the
Terms of this Agreement shall be instituted in Fairfax County Circuit Court located in Fairfax, Virginia or such other court of competent jurisdiction, in ECS’s sole and
absolute discretion. Each of the parties waives any objection that it may have to the venue of any such suit, action, or proceeding, and each of the parties hereby irrevocably
consents to the personal jurisdiction of any such court in any such suit, action or proceeding.
15.5 If CLIENT disputes all or part of an invoice, CLIENT shall provide ECS with written notice stating in detail the facts of the dispute within fifteen (15) calendar days of the
invoice date. CLIENT agrees to pay the undisputed amount of such invoice promptly.
15.6 ECS reserves the right to charge CLIENT an additional charge of one-and-one-half (1.5) percent (or the maximum percentage allowed by Law, whichever is lower) of the
invoiced amount per month for any payment received by ECS more than thirty (30) calendar days from the date of the invoice, excepting any portion of the invoiced amount
in dispute. All payments will be applied to accrued interest first and then to the unpaid principal amount. Payment of invoices shall not be subject to unilateral discounting
or set offs by CLIENT. CLIENT acknowledges that all payments made by credit card shall be subject to a three percent (3%) convenience fee.
15.7 CLIENT agrees that its obligation to pay for the Services is not contingent upon CLIENT’S ability to obtain financing, zoning, approval of governmental or regulatory
agencies, permits, final adjudication of a lawsuit, CLIENT’S successful completion of the Project, settlement of a real estate transaction, receipt of payment from CLIENT’s
Page 40 of 194
Page 3 of 4 Ver. 01/01/2026
client, or any other event unrelated to ECS provision of Services. Retainage shall not be withheld from any payment, nor shall any deduction be made from any invoice
on account of penalty, liquidated damages, or other sums incurred by CLIENT. It is agreed that all costs and legal fees including actual attorney's fees, and expenses
incurred by ECS in obtaining payment under this Agreement, in perfecting or obtaining a lien, recovery under a bond, collecting any delinquent amounts due, or executing
judgments, shall be reimbursed by CLIENT.
15.8 Unless CLIENT has provided notice to ECS in accordance with Section 16.0 of these Terms, payment of any invoice by the CLIENT shall mean that the CLIENT is satisfied
with ECS’s Services and is not aware of any defects in those Services.
16.0 DEFECTS IN SERVICE
16.1 CLIENT and CLIENT’s Contractors shall promptly inform ECS during active work on any project of any actual or suspected defects in the Services so to permit ECS to
take such prompt, effective remedial measures that in ECS’s opinion will reduce or eliminate the consequences of any such defective Services. The correction of defects
attributable to ECS’s failure to perform in accordance with the Standard of Care shall be provided at no cost to CLIENT. However, ECS shall not be responsible for the
correction of any deficiency attributable to client-furnished information, the errors, omissions, defective materials, or improper installation of materials by CLIENT’s
personnel, consultants or contractors, or work not observed by ECS. CLIENT shall compensate ECS for the costs of correcting such defects.
16.2 Modifications to reports, documents and plans required as a result of jurisdictional reviews or CLIENT requests shall not be considered to be defects. CLIENT shall
compensate ECS for the provision of such Services.
17.0 INSURANCE - ECS represents that it and its subcontractors and subconsultants maintain workers compensation insurance, and that ECS is covered by general liability,
automobile and professional liability insurance policies in coverage amounts it deems reasonable and adequate. ECS shall furnish certificates of insurance upon request.
The CLIENT is responsible for requesting specific inclusions or limits of coverage that are not present in ECS insurance package. The cost of such inclusions or coverage
increases, if available, will be at the expense of the CLIENT.
18.0 LIMITATION OF LIABILITY
18.1 CLIENT AGREES TO ALLOCATE CERTAIN RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH THE PROJECT BY LIMITING ECS’S TOTAL LIABILITY TO CLIENT ARISING FROM ECS’S PROFESSIONAL LIABILITY, I.E.
PROFESSIONAL ACTS, ERRORS, OR OMISSIONS AND FOR ANY AND ALL CAUSES INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE, STRICT LIABILITY, BREACH OF CONTRACT, OR BREACH OF WARRANTY, INJURIES,
DAMAGES, CLAIMS, LOSSES, EXPENSES, OR CLAIM EXPENSES (INCLUDING REASONABLE ATTORNEY’S FEES) RELATING TO PROFESSIONAL SERVICES PROVIDED UNDER THIS AGREEMENT TO
THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW. THE ALLOCATION IS AS FOLLOWS:

whichever is greater.
18.2 CLIENT agrees that ECS shall not be responsible for any injury, loss or damage of any nature, including bodily injury and property damage, arising directly or indirectly, in
whole or in part, from acts or omissions by the CLIENT, its employees, agents, staff, consultants, contractors, or subcontractors to the extent such injury, damage, or loss
is caused by acts or omissions of CLIENT, its employees, agents, staff, consultants, contractors, subcontractors or person/entities for whom CLIENT is legally liable.

19.0 INDEMNIFICATION
19.1 Subject to Section 18.0, ECS agrees to hold harmless and indemnify CLIENT from and against damages arising from ECS’s negligent performance of its Services, but
only to the extent that such damages are found to be caused by ECS’s negligent acts, errors or omissions, (specifically excluding any damages caused by any third party
or by the CLIENT.) ECS does not waive any limitations it may have on its liability under the Illinois Workers Compensation Act, or any other statute.
19.2 To the fullest extent permitted by law, CLIENT agrees to indemnify, and hold ECS harmless from and against any and all liability, claims, damages, demands, fines,
penalties, costs and expenditures (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs of litigation defense and/or settlement) (“Damages”) caused in whole or in part by the
acts, errors, or omissions of the CLIENT or CLIENT’s employees, agents, staff, contractors, subcontractors, consultants, and clients, provided such Damages are
attributable to: (a) the bodily injury, personal injury, sickness, disease and/or death of any person; (b) the injury to or loss of value to tangible personal property; or (c) a
breach of these Terms. The foregoing indemnification shall not apply to the extent such Damage is found to be caused by the sole negligence, errors, omissions or willful
misconduct of ECS.
19.3 It is specifically understood and agreed that in no case shall ECS be required to pay an amount of Damages disproportional to ECS’s culpability. IF CLIENT IS A HOMEOWNER,
HOMEOWNERS’ ASSOCIATION, CONDOMINIUM OWNER, CONDOMINIUM OWNERS’ ASSOCIATION, OR SIMILAR RESIDENTIAL OWNER, ECS RECOMMENDS THAT CLIENT RETAIN LEGAL COUNSEL
BEFORE ENTERING INTO THIS AGREEMENT TO EXPLAIN CLIENT’S RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS HEREUNDER, AND THE LIMITATIONS, AND RESTRICTIONS IMPOSED BY THIS AGREEMENT.
CLIENT AGREES THAT FAILURE OF CLIENT TO RETAIN SUCH COUNSEL SHALL BE A KNOWING WAIVER OF LEGAL COUNSEL AND SHALL NOT BE ALLOWED ON GROUNDS OF AVOIDING ANY
PROVISION OF THIS AGREEMENT.
19.4 I F CLIENT IS A RESIDENTIAL BUILDER OR RESIDENTIAL DEVELOPER, CLIENT SHALL INDEMNIFY AND HOLD HARMLESS ECS AGAINST ANY AND ALL CLAIMS OR DEMANDS DUE TO INJURY OR
LOSS INITIATED BY ONE OR MORE HOMEOWNERS, UNIT-OWNERS, OR THEIR HOMEOWNER’S ASSOCIATION, COOPERATIVE BOARD, OR SIMILAR GOVERNING ENTITY AGAINST CLIENT WHICH

with ECS’s Services without written consent from both CLIENT and ECS, which shall include, at a minimum, the third-party's agreement to be bound to the same Terms
and Conditions contained herein and third-party’s agreement that ECS’s Scope of Services performed is adequate.
23.0 DISPUTE RESOLUTION
23.1 In the event any claims, disputes, and other matters in question arising out of or relating to these Terms or breach thereof (collectively referred to as “Disputes”), the parties
shall promptly attempt to resolve all such Disputes through executive negotiation between senior representatives of both parties familiar with the Project. The parties shall

VIBRANT SPACES GRANT
ENCOURAGING PLACEMAKING EFFORTS
IN WISCONSIN COMMUNITIES
The Vibrant Spaces Grant, an element of the Wisconsin
Economic Development Corporation’s (WEDC’s) Community
Development Investment (CDI) Grant Program, is designed to
assist communities in creating vibrant and engaging spaces
that make it easier to recruit and retain residents, sustain a
robust labor force, and enhance local quality of life. With the
help of this grant, new and enhanced public gathering places
will foster community connections and provide accessible
locations for the programming and amenities local residents
desire—with the additional benefit of boosting foot traffic for
area businesses.
How it works
Grants in amounts from $25,000 to $50,000 are available to
help local communities develop and enhance public spaces. The
application must come from the municipality, and only one
application per municipality will be considered per fiscal year.
Previous awardees must wait at least one fiscal year between
Vibrant Spaces awards (except for the City of Milwaukee, in
which different commercial corridors may apply for a grant
award annually). A Vibrant Spaces Grant application does not
affect a community’s broader eligibility for a CDI Grant. In the
FY26 grant cycle, no more than 40 grants will be awarded.
Applicants must provide a 1:1 match of the grant amount, with
the exception of economically distressed communities or
communities with population less than 5,000, which need only
provide a 25% match.
Eligibility requirements
Competitive projects will:
• Incorporate multiple improvements within or associated
with one public space.
• Demonstrate community engagement and support via a
community document/plan and/or via letters of support
from public, private, and civic partners.
• Be ready to begin construction during the current WEDC
fiscal year.
• Create visible and lasting transformations that foster
public activity.
Eligible activities
Applications will be evaluated based on criteria including:
• Creation of visible and pedestrian-oriented public space
• Potential of the space to attract multiple user groups
and activities

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Project Selection
Project elements:
1) My space is specifically designed for one use, but will be open to others to use, is it eligible? Answer: No,
projects must accommodate multiple uses.
2) Is a project to build new pickle ball courts eligible? Answer: No, because projects must accommodate
multiple user groups and activities.
3) Is my boat ramp and fishing pier eligible? Answer: If the ramp and pier are elements of a projects
improving a space accessible and visible from a commercial corridor and are part of a broader project, they
are eligible, but standalone waterfront projects or those not adjacent to commercial uses would not be.
4) Are streetscaping elements eligible? Answer: Landscaping and public amenities within a defined space are
eligible. Streetscaping or amenities for an entire corridor are not.
5) Are alley improvements eligible? Answer: Yes, but the alley should be a defined space that can be
programmed for use. Alley improvements over multiple blocks and/or alleys that do not cater to pedestrians
are not eligible.
6) Can the grant be used to renovate the inside and outside of a building in the space? Answer: The only
interior renovations allowed inside of buildings are the construction (and renovation) of restrooms. Other
renovations to the structure are not eligible (Those elements in the space - e.g. concessions - could be done
separately from the grant).
7) Can the space be fenced and have operating hours for public use? Can the space be used for private
events? Answer: Yes, provided that the space is generally accessible to the public, it may be fully/partially
fenced to accommodate certain activities. Operating hours (such as nighttime closures of restrooms) are
permissible. Private events may also be permitted – as often seen in other municipal public spaces.
8) Is fencing an eligible expense? Answer: Yes, if it is associated with the space.
9) Would relocation of a memorial be an allowable expense as part of the overall project? Answer: Site
preparation is eligible as a match, so the grading work associated with the relocation would be a match. The
relocation itself would be outside of the grant and not eligible as a match expense.
10) Would a PA system be eligible? Answer: Yes, as long as its use is related to the space.
Project location:
11) Can the project be located on privately-owned property? Answer: Yes, but the site/property does need to
be publicly accessible. If privately-owned, then a multi-year lease agreement or formal Memorandum of
Understanding will be needed as well as property owner permission to carry out activities on the site.
a. How long does the lease term need to be? Answer: Suggestion of two years or more.
12) Can the grant be used in a neighborhood park that isn’t necessarily in a downtown space? Answer: Yes,
but only if you can show the impact to neighborhood businesses.
Project Logistics and Funding
Applicants:
1) Can previous Vibrant Spaces grant recipients apply? Answer: Applicants may receive one award every two
fiscal years, except for the City of Milwaukee, in which different commercial corridors may apply for and
receive a VS award annually.
2) How do you define a community? Answer: Municipal boundaries define a community. One (1) application
per community is allowed due to limited funds.

bicycle/pedestrian trail that would connect multiple communities? Answer: Trail extension is not eligible,
but trail head and gathering spaces along trails that would benefit commercial district businesses, and that
will be used for multiple audiences, are eligible. If a space spans municipalities, is recommended that one or
both municipalities submit grants for their portion of the project, as contracts will be with a single entity.
6) How do we find out who to contact at our local municipality? Answer: Contact your WEDC Regional
Director and they will provide you with the appropriate community contact information.
Funding:
7) Do I have to have all ‘match sources’ secured at the time of application? Answer: At the time of
application, WEDC will look to have 80% of total project funding secured, the remaining should have a
strong plan in place to get funding commitments secured.
8) WEDC will allow a total of two (2) draw requests for the project. Grant funds will be disbursed on a pro-rata
basis to match the amount of matching funds identified with the draw(s).

Grant Application and Process
1) How long do we have to complete the project? Answer: Project must start after the application is accepted
into WEDC’s Underwriting. Contracts will be for two (2) years.
2) Is the space design expected to be final by the time of application? Answer: No, but a close representation
of the future space needs to be provided with the application to have an accurate budget, and
stakeholder/partner consensus regarding the project and process must be very well defined within the
application.
3) If we are planning to start some of the project before we submit a VS application, can we still apply?
Answer: Yes, once a completed application is received (and accepted as complete into WEDC’s
Underwriting), costs incurred on and after the acceptance date may be considered eligible as match,
assuming the grant is awarded. Project elements completed prior to that date will not be eligible for match
or reimbursement, but prior progress does not impact the eligibility for funding of the space. Provided
sufficient costs remain after the acceptance date to support both match and funding, projects may still
apply.
4) Can your project be out to bid, but just not have started yet? Answer: Yes.
5) Is a project eligible to apply that already has site work started? Answer: Yes, but the date the application
is accepted into WEDC’s Underwriting is the “start date” for the project. Only after the “start date” will
expenses be considered grant and match eligible.
6) If I don’t have a community plan that identifies the project, what other documentation would be acceptable
to provide? Answer: Meeting minutes, news articles, community meeting announcements, and/or
documentation of the conversations/meetings that have been had to date with partners/stakeholders
regarding the project.
7) Are there any requirements or advantages for rural or low-income areas? Answer: Yes. Match requirement
has been reduced from 50% to 25% for CDI-VS grants in which:
o The project is in an Economically Distressed Community.
o The project is in a community under 5,000 people.
· Twenty percent of annual CDI-VS funding will be intended to finance projects in
communities under 5,000 in population.
8) Deadline for Regional Directors to submit applications into Underwriting for FY26 funding is February 1,
2026.

PROJECT INFORMATION AND SCOPE OF SERVICES
Project Description
ECS understands the subject property is located at 251 Elkhorn Rd in Williams Bay, Walworth County,
Wisconsin 53191. According to the Walworth County Online Geographic Information Systems (GIS)
website, the subject property identified as Parcel Identification Numbers (PIN) WWUP 00049 and
WWUP 00048 is owned by the VILLAGE OF WILLIAMS BAY.The subject property also includes portions
of the existing pathway that is also located within a 33’ wide Village right-of-way easement on PIN
WWUP 00045 and PIN WWUP 00046.Based on available information, the subject properties are
currently developed with a bike path, outside and inside storage, boat rigging area, and municipal
parking lot. The path (subject property) is outlined in black in the image below.
Scope of Services
ECS proposes the following scope of services, and optional services, that may be selected by the client
on the enclosed Proposal Acceptance Form.

Phase I Environmental Site Assessment
The Phase I Environmental Site Assessment (ESA) will be prepared in general accordance with ASTM
Standard E1527-21, Standard Practice for Phase I Environmental Site Assessments. We note that
there may be some instances which require an adjustment to the quoted price for this Phase I ESA
if supplemental investigation, additional lender requirements or other services, beyond the scope
outlined in this proposal, are requested.We would notify you in advance if these additional services
would result in increased fees.
To expedite the preparation of the Phase I ESA, please provide ECS with the following:
1. Copies of updated site plans/plots which you may have available;
2. A point of contact for site access;
3. A current chain-of-ownership for the subject property (preferably dating back to 1940 or
earlier);
4. The name and telephone number of the current owner so that ECS may conduct an
interview; and,
5. A completed User Questionnaire (blank form for your use is attached).
In accordance with the ASTM protocol, it is the obligation of the "User" (i.e., the party relying on the
report) to report to the environmental professional (i.e., ECS) any environmental liens encumbering
the property or any specialized knowledge or experience of the User that would provide information
about previous ownership or uses of the property that may be material to identifying recognized
environmental conditions. Based on this, ECS requests any previous environmental information
related to the property.
We have attached the User Questionnaire to assist the User and the environmental professional (ECS)
in gathering information from the User that may be material to identifying recognized environmental
conditions with respect to the site.As the User of the report, please complete the attached User
Questionnaire and return it with the signed proposal. The User Questionnaire should be completed by the
User of the Phase I ESA, which is the party to whom the report is addressed. ECS will conduct a separate
interview with the property owner (assuming owner contact information is provided). We request that the
User Questionnaire be completed and returned to ECS at the same time this proposal is authorized to
avoid delays in delivering the final report. All answers on the User Questionnaire should be provided
only to the best of your current knowledge; completion of the User Questionnaire should not require
additional research by the User or inquiry to the current property owner. ECS will conduct a separate
interview with the current property owner. This User Questionnaire will be included in the Phase I
ESA Report and will assist in satisfying the “User’s Responsibilities” portion of the ASTM Standard.
ECS will prepare one Phase I ESA Report for the subject property. A copy of the report will be
forwarded electronically upon completion of the project.
Optional Services:
Environmental Lien and Activity and Use Limitation Search
Baxter & Woodman
Consulting Engineers
53:10423
ECS Midwest, LLC
Page 2
Page 124 of 194
In addition, the ASTM standard also requires a search for the existence of environmental liens
and activity and use limitations (AULs) in accordance with 40 CFR Part 312. If this information
is not readily available, ECS can contract with a third party provider to conduct this search for
an additional fee. It should be noted that failure to obtain this information may preclude your
ability to qualify for certain liability protections under CERCLA. Please indicate on the attached
authorization page if you would prefer ECS to obtain this information on your behalf for an
additional fee of $450 per parcel.(The ASTM E1527-21 standard allows the user to utilize title
commitment reports, title insurance, or other equivalent title research in lieu of a specific Lien
and AUL search. If such documents are available, please transmit them to ECS prior to the
completion of the Phase I ESA report.)
Engineering Grant Assistance
The completion of Environmental Hazards Assessment WDNR Form 1800-001 is included in this task.
Please note that this form must be completed and approved by the Department of Natural Resources
(DNR) before grant funds can be expended for land acquisition and development projects.Please
note that ECS will provide the completed form to you for your submittal to the DNR.
Additionally, up to 8 hours has been budgeted for engineering grant assistance for this task to be
billed at a rate of $175/hour. Please note that the number of hours is an estimate and ECS will only
bill for the number of hours actually needed for this task. Any additional hours needed will be billed
at the same daily rate above with prior approval from the client.
Out of Scope Items
If, during the performance of our scope of services, additional environmental issues are identified
that are beyond the Scope of Services outlined within this proposal, ECS may contact Baxter &
Woodman Consulting Engineers to discuss the relevance and significance of the finding in order to
determine if the finding merits additional assessment, inclusion in our final report, or a modification
to our Scope of Services and fee.
Safety
ECS personnel are responsible for their own personal safety. While on site, if ECS personnel deem
a condition unsafe and the performance of our scope of services cannot be completed, you will be
notified of the unsafe condition. ECS personnel will not proceed further with the scope of services in
that area until the unsafe condition is corrected.Access delays associated with safety concerns may
result in additional fees.
PROJECT FEES AND SCHEDULE
Project Fees
ECS will provide the proposed scope of services for the lump sum fees indicated on the attached
Proposal Acceptance Formand based upon the service level selected by the Client. Our fees are
based on the chain of title, third party AUL search and property owner/contact information being
provided by you or your agents, unless otherwise indicated.

Meetings and Conference Calls
Meetings and conference callsrequested by Baxter & Woodman Consulting Engineers beyond the
Scope of Servicesproposed will be invoiced on a time and materials basis. Meetings after typical office
hours (Monday through Friday 8 am to 5 pm) will be invoiced at 1.5 times the normal rate.
Project Schedule
We anticipate that a standard Phase I ESA can be completed within15 business days from
authorization to proceed provided that site access is grantedpromptly. We will proceed with the
accepted services upon receipt of written authorization. If this schedule does not meet your needs,
please contact ECS to discuss an expedited deadline.Expedited (10 business day) delivery is also
provided as an option on the attached Proposal Acceptance Form.
If areas of the property cannot be observed due to inaccessibility or unsafe conditions beyond the
control of ECS, ECS will wait until such time either that the area is accessible or the unsafe conditions
are corrected. If ECS must make additional visits to the site, a change order will be provided for our
additional fees.
If other items are required because of unexpected field conditions encountered in our fieldwork,
or because of a request for additional services,they would be invoiced as an agreed-to lump sum
fee or in accordance with the ECS Fee Schedule (available upon request) in effect at the time of the
service. Before expanding our scope of service that increased our fee, you would be informed of our
intentions for both your review and authorization.
LIMITATIONS AND ASSUMPTIONS
Conclusions and recommendations pertaining to environmental conditions at the subject site are
limited to the conditions observedat the time this study will be undertaken. The assessment is not
intended to represent an exhaustive research of every potential hazard or condition that may exist,
nor does it claim to represent conditions or events that arise after the assessment.
We have made the following assumptions in developing this proposal:
• Prices presented herein are valid for 120 days from the date of this proposal.
• One color electronic version (PDF format) of the report(s) will be provided upon completion
of the project. Bound reports can be provided for an additional fee.
• If client-provided information is submitted to ECS after our ESA report has been issued,
additional labor fees may be invoiced to review to data, to edit our report, and to reissue
our report. Please provide any available due diligence information at the beginning of the
project.
• Please note that ASTM standard indicates that regulatory agency files available for the
subject property or adjoining properties should be reviewed and failure to do so may result
in data gaps in our report. The lump sum fee offered for the Phase I ESA does not include
expanded reviews of regulatory files for the subject site and/or adjacent properties which
are not available electronically, or if the file information may not be reasonably ascertainable
within the project schedule. If the subject property and/or adjacent properties are identified

Page 126 of 194
on federal or state regulatory lists, and if a file review is warranted, ECS will contact you.
An additional fee may be necessary depending on the location and volume of information
pertaining to these regulatory files.
• If requested, ECS can provide reliance letters for our reportsfor an additional fee of $500
per letter/entity. Future reliance offered by ECS would be bound to ECS's standard Terms
and Conditions. (Note: Additional fees may apply for client-requested reliance language that
needs to be reviewed and approved by ECS legal counsel.Client-supplied reliance language
beyond the ECS standard reliance letter may not be approved by ECS's legal counsel.)

Proposal No.: (hereinafter the “Proposal”)
Client:
ECS MIDWEST, LLC
TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF SERVICE
The professional services (the “Services”) to be provided by ECS MIDWEST, LLC (“ECS”) pursuant to the Proposal shall be provided in accordance with these Terms and
Conditions of Service (“Terms”), including any addenda as may be incorporated or referenced in writing and shall form the Agreement between ECS and CLIENT.
1.0 INDEPENDENT CONSULTANT STATUS - ECS shall serve as an independent professional consultant to CLIENT for Services on the Project and shall have control over,
and responsibility for, the means and methods for providing the Services identified in the Proposal, including the retention of Subcontractors and Subconsultants
2.0 SCOPE OF SERVICES - It is understood that the fees, reimbursable expenses and time schedule defined in the Proposal are based on information provided by CLIENT
and/or CLIENT’S, agents, contractors and consultants (“Contractors”). CLIENT acknowledges that if this information is not current, is incomplete or inaccurate, if conditions
are discovered that could not be reasonably foreseen, or if CLIENT orders additional services, the scope of services will change, even while the Services are in progress.
3.0 STANDARD OF CARE
3.1 In fulfilling its obligations and responsibilities enumerated in the Proposal, ECS shall be expected to comply with and its performance evaluated in light of the
standard of care expected of professionals in the industry performing similar services on projects of like size and complexity at that time in the region (the
“Standard of Care”). Nothing contained in the Proposal, the agreed-upon scope of Services, these Terms or any ECS report, opinion, plan or other document
prepared by ECS shall constitute a warranty or guarantee of any nature whatsoever.
3.2 CLIENT understands and agrees that ECS will rely on the facts learned from data gathered during performance of Services as well as those facts provided by the CLIENT
and/or CLIENT’S contractors and consultants. CLIENT acknowledges that such data collection is limited to specific areas that are sampled, bored, tested, observed and/or
evaluated. Consequently, CLIENT waives any and all claims based upon erroneous facts provided by the CLIENT, facts subsequently learned or regarding conditions in
areas not specifically sampled, bored, tested, observed or evaluated by ECS.
3.3 If a situation arises that causes ECS to believe compliance with CLIENT’S directives would be contrary to sound engineering practices, would violate applicable laws,
regulations or codes, or will expose ECS to legal claims or charges, ECS shall so advise CLIENT. If ECS’s professional judgment is rejected, ECS shall have the right to
terminate its Services in accordance with the provisions of Section 25.0, below.
3.4 If CLIENT decides to disregard ECS’s recommendations with respect to complying with applicable laws or regulations, ECS shall determine if applicable law requires ECS
to notify the appropriate public officials. CLIENT agrees that such determinations are ECS’s sole right to make.
4.0 CLIENT DISCLOSURES
4.1 Where the Services requires ECS to penetrate a surface, CLIENT shall furnish and/or shall direct CLIENT’S or CLIENT’S Contractors to furnish ECS information identifying
the type and location of utility lines and other man-made objects known, suspected, or assumed to be located beneath or behind the Site's surface. ECS shall be entitled
to rely on such information for completeness and accuracy without further investigation, analysis, or evaluation.
4.2 “Hazardous Materials” shall include but not be limited to any substance that poses or may pose a present or potential hazard to human health or the environment whether
contained in a product, material, by-product, waste, or sample, and whether it exists in a solid, liquid, semi-solid or gaseous form. CLIENT shall notify ECS of any known,
assumed, or suspected regulated, contaminated, or other similar Hazardous Materials that may exist at the Site prior to ECS mobilizing to the Site.
4.3 If any Hazardous Materials are discovered or are reasonably suspected by ECS after its Services begin, ECS shall be entitled to amend the scope of Services and adjust
its fees or fee schedule to reflect any additional work or personal protective equipment and/or safety precautions required by the existence of such Hazardous Materials.
5.0 INFORMATION PROVIDED BY OTHERS - CLIENT waives, releases and discharges ECS from and against any claim for damage, injury or loss allegedly arising out of
or in connection with errors, omissions, or inaccuracies in documents and other information in any form provided to ECS by CLIENT or CLIENT’s Contractors, including
such information that becomes incorporated into ECS documents.
6.0 CONCEALED RISKS - CLIENT acknowledges that special risks are inherent in sampling, testing and/or evaluating concealed conditions that are hidden from view and/or
neither readably apparent nor easily accessible, e.g., subsurface conditions, conditions behind a wall, beneath a floor, or above a ceiling. Such circumstances require that
certain assumptions be made regarding existing conditions, which may not be verifiable without expending additional sums of money or destroying otherwise adequate or
serviceable portions of a building or component thereof. Accordingly, ECS shall not be responsible for the verification of such conditions unless verification can be made
by simple visual observation. CLIENT agrees to bear any and all costs, losses, damages and expenses (including, but not limited to, the cost of ECS’s additional services)
in any way arising from or in connection with the existence or discovery of such concealed or unknown conditions.
7.0 RIGHT OF ENTRY/DAMAGE RESULTING FROM SERVICES
7.1 CLIENT warrants that it possesses the authority to grant ECS right of entry to the site for the performance of Services. CLIENT hereby grants ECS and its agents,
subcontractors and/or subconsultants (“Subconsultants”), the right to enter from time to time onto the property in order for ECS to perform its Services. CLIENT agrees to
indemnify and hold ECS and its Subconsultants harmless from any claims arising from allegations that ECS trespassed or lacked authority to access the Site.
7.2 CLIENT warrants that it possesses all necessary permits, licenses and/or utility clearances for the Services to be provided by ECS except where ECS’s Proposal explicitly
states that ECS will obtain such permits, licenses, and/or utility clearances.
7.3 ECS will take reasonable precautions to limit damage to the Site and its improvements during the performance of its Services. CLIENT understands that the use of
exploration, boring, sampling, or testing equipment may cause damage to the Site. The correction and restoration of such common damage is CLIENT’S responsibility
unless specifically included in ECS’s Proposal.
7.4 CLIENT agrees that it will not bring any claims for liability or for injury or loss against ECS arising from (i) procedures associated with the exploration, sampling or testing
activities at the Site, (ii) discovery of Hazardous Materials or suspected Hazardous Materials, or (iii) ECS’s findings, conclusions, opinions, recommendations, plans, and/or
specifications related to discovery of contamination.
8.0 UNDERGROUND UTILITIES
8.1 ECS shall exercise the Standard of Care in evaluating client-furnished information as well as information readily and customarily available from public utility locating
services (the “Underground Utility Information”) in its effort to identify underground utilities. The extent of such evaluations shall be at ECS’s sole discretion.
8.2 CLIENT recognizes that the Underground Utility Information provided to or obtained by ECS may contain errors or be incomplete. CLIENT understands that ECS may be
unable to identify the locations of all subsurface utility lines and man-made features. CLIENT shall notify ECS in writing of any private utilities or nonferrous piping that
would not be found with standard magnetic detection devices. CLIENT shall be charged an additional fee if ECS is requested to use ground penetrating radar in an effort
to locating underground utilities or structures.
8.3 CLIENT shall indemnify, defend, and hold ECS harmless from and against any claim for damage, injury or loss allegedly arising from or related to subterranean structures
(pipes, tanks, cables, or other utilities, etc.) which are not called to ECS’s attention in writing by CLIENT, not correctly shown on the Underground Utility Information and/or
not properly marked or located by the utility owners, governmental or quasi-governmental locators, or private utility locating services as a result of ECS’s or ECS’s
Subconsultant’s request for utility marking services made in accordance with local industry standards.
9.0 SAMPLES
9.1 Soil, rock, water, building materials and/or other samples and sampling by-products obtained from the Site are and remain the property of CLIENT. Unless other
arrangements are requested by CLIENT and mutually agreed upon by ECS in writing, ECS will retain samples not consumed in laboratory testing for up to sixty (60)
calendar days after the first issuance of any document containing data obtained from such samples. Samples consumed by laboratory testing procedures will not be stored.
9.2 Unless CLIENT directs otherwise, and excluding those issues covered in Section 10.0, CLIENT authorizes ECS to dispose of CLIENT’S non-hazardous samples and
sampling or testing by-products in accordance with applicable laws and regulations.
10.0 ENVIRONMENTAL RISKS
10.1 When Hazardous Materials are known, assumed, suspected to exist, or discovered at the Site, ECS will endeavor to protect its employees and address public health,
safety, and environmental issues in accordance with the Standard of Care. CLIENT agrees to compensate ECS for such efforts.
Page 132 of 194
Page 2 of 4 Ver. 01/01/2026
10.2 When Hazardous Materials are known, assumed, or suspected to exist, or discovered at the Site, ECS and/or ECS’s subcontractors will exercise the Standard of Care in
containerizing and labeling such Hazardous Materials in accordance with applicable laws and regulations, and will leave the containers on Site. CLIENT is responsible for
the retrieval, removal, transport and disposal of such contaminated samples, and sampling process byproducts in accordance with applicable law and regulation.
10.3 Unless explicitly stated in the Scope of Services, ECS will neither subcontract for nor arrange for the transport, disposal, or treatment of Hazardous Materials. At CLIENT’S
written request, ECS may assist CLIENT in identifying appropriate alternatives for transport, off-site treatment, storage, or disposal of such substances, but CLIENT shall
be solely responsible for the final selection of methods and firms to provide such services. CLIENT shall sign all manifests for the disposal of substances affected by
contaminants and shall otherwise exercise prudence in arranging for lawful disposal.
10.4 In those instances where ECS is expressly retained by CLIENT to assist CLIENT in the disposal of Hazardous Materials, samples, or wastes as part of the Proposal, ECS
shall do so only as CLIENT’S agent (notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary). ECS will not assume the role of, nor be considered a generator,
storer, transporter, or disposer of Hazardous Materials.
10.5 Subsurface sampling may result in unavoidable cross-contamination of certain subsurface areas, as when a probe or excavation/boring device moves through a
contaminated zone and links it to an aquifer, underground stream, pervious soil stratum, or other hydrous body not previously contaminated, or connects an uncontaminated
zone with a contaminated zone. Because sampling is an essential element of the Services indicated herein, CLIENT agrees this risk cannot be eliminated. Provided such
services were performed in accordance with the Standard of Care, CLIENT waives, releases and discharges ECS from and against any claim for damage, injury, or loss
allegedly arising from or related to such cross-contamination.
10.6 CLIENT understands that a Phase I Environmental Site Assessment (ESA) is conducted solely to permit ECS to render a professional opinion about the likelihood of the
site having a Recognized Environmental Condition on, in, beneath, or near the Site at the time the Services are conducted. No matter how thorough a Phase I ESA study
may be, findings derived from its conduct are highly limited and ECS cannot know or state for an absolute fact that the Site is unaffected or adversely affected by one or
more Recognized Environmental Conditions. CLIENT represents and warrants that it understands the limitations associated with Phase I ESAs.
11.0 OWNERSHIP OF DOCUMENTS
11.1 ECS shall be deemed the author and owner (or licensee) of all documents, technical reports, letters, photos, boring logs, field data, field notes, laboratory test data,
calculations, designs, plans, specifications, reports, or similar documents and estimates of any kind furnished by it [the “Documents of Service”] and shall retain all common
law, statutory and other reserved rights, including copyrights. CLIENT shall have a limited, non-exclusive license to use copies of the Documents of Service provided to it
in connection with its Project for which the Documents of Service are provided until the completion of the Project.
11.2 ECS’s Services are performed, and Documents of Service are provided for the CLIENT’S sole use. CLIENT understands and agrees that any use of the Documents of
Service by anyone other than the CLIENT and its Contractors is not permitted. CLIENT further agrees to indemnify and hold ECS harmless for any errors, omissions or
damage resulting from its contractors’ use of ECS’s Documents of Service.
11.3 Without ECS’s prior written consent, CLIENT agrees to not use ECS’s Documents of Service for the Project if the Project is subsequently modified in scope, structure or
purpose. Any reuse without ECS’s written consent shall be at CLIENT’S sole risk and without liability to ECS or its Subconsultants. CLIENT agrees to indemnify and hold
ECS harmless for any errors, omissions or Damage resulting from its use of ECS’s Documents of Service after any modification in scope, structure or purpose.
11.4 CLIENT agrees to not make any modification to the Documents of Service without the prior written authorization of ECS. To the fullest extent permitted by law, CLIENT
agrees to indemnify, defend, and hold ECS harmless from any damage, loss, claim, liability or cost (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and defense costs) arising out of
or in connection with any unauthorized modification of the Documents of Service by CLIENT or any person or entity that acquires or obtains the Documents of Service
from or through CLIENT. CLIENT represents and warrants that the Documents of Service shall be used only as submitted by ECS.
12.0 SAFETY
12.1 Unless expressly agreed to in writing in its Proposal, CLIENT agrees that ECS shall have no responsibility whatsoever for any aspect of site safety other than for its own
employees. Nothing herein shall be construed to relieve CLIENT and/or its Contractors from their responsibility for site safety. CLIENT also represents and warrants that
the General Contractor is solely responsible for Project site safety and that ECS personnel may rely on the safety measures provided by the General Contractor.
12.2 In the event ECS assumes in writing limited responsibility for specified safety issues, the acceptance of such responsibilities does not and shall not be deemed an
acceptance of responsibility for any other non-specified safety issues, including, but not limited to those relating to excavating, fall protection, shoring, drilling, backfilling,
blasting, or other construction activities.
13.0 CONSTRUCTION TESTING AND REMEDIATION SERVICES
13.1 CLIENT understands that construction testing and observation services are provided in an effort to reduce, but cannot eliminate, the risk of problems arising during or after
construction or remediation. CLIENT agrees that the provision of such Services does not create a warranty or guarantee of any type.
13.2 Monitoring and/or testing services provided by ECS shall not in any way relieve the CLIENT’S contractor(s) from their responsibilities and obligations for the quality or
completeness of construction as well as their obligation to comply with applicable laws, codes, and regulations.
13.3 ECS has no responsibility whatsoever for the means, methods, techniques, sequencing or procedures of construction selected, for safety precautions and programs
incidental to work or services provided by any contractor or other consultant. ECS does not and shall not have or accept authority to supervise, direct, control, or stop the
work of any of CLIENT’S Contractors or any of their subcontractors.
13.4 ECS strongly recommends that CLIENT retain ECS to provide construction monitoring and testing services on a full-time basis to lower the risk of defective or incomplete
work being installed by CLIENT’S Contractors. If CLIENT elects to retain ECS on a part-time or on-call basis for any aspect of construction monitoring and/or testing,
CLIENT accepts the risk that a lower level of construction quality may occur and that defective or incomplete work may result and not be detected by ECS’s part time
monitoring and testing in exchange for CLIENT’S receipt of an immediate cost savings. Unless the CLIENT can show that ECS’s errors or omissions are contained in
ECS’s reports, CLIENT waives, releases and discharges ECS from and against any other claims for errors, omissions, damages, injuries, or loss alleged to arise from
defective or incomplete work that was monitored or tested by ECS on a part-time or on-call basis. Except as set forth in the preceding sentence, CLIENT agrees to
indemnify and hold ECS harmless from all Damages, costs, and attorneys’ fees, for any claims alleging errors, omissions, damage, injury or loss allegedly resulting from
work that was monitored or tested by ECS on a part-time or on-call basis.
14.0 CERTIFICATIONS - CLIENT may request, or governing jurisdictions may require, ECS to provide a “certification” regarding the Services provided by ECS. Any
“certification” required of ECS by the CLIENT or jurisdiction(s) having authority over some or all aspects of the Project shall consist of ECS’s inferences and professional
opinions based on the limited sampling, observations, tests, and/or analyses performed by ECS at discrete locations and times. Such “certifications” shall constitute ECS’s
professional opinion of a condition's existence, but ECS does not guarantee that such condition exists, nor does it relieve other parties of the responsibilities or obligations
such parties have with respect to the possible existence of such a condition. CLIENT agrees it cannot make the resolution of any dispute with ECS or payment of any
amount due to ECS contingent upon ECS signing any such “certification.”
15.0 BILLINGS AND PAYMENTS
15.1 Billings will be based on the unit rates, plus travel costs, and other reimbursable expenses as stated in the professional fees section of the Proposal. Any estimate of
professional fees stated shall not be considered as a not-to-exceed or lump sum amount unless otherwise explicitly stated. CLIENT understands and agrees that even if
ECS agrees to a lump sum or not-to-exceed amount, that amount shall be limited to number of hours, visits, trips, tests, borings, or samples stated in the Proposal.
15.2 CLIENT agrees that all professional fees and other unit rates may be adjusted annually to account for inflation based on the most recent 12-month average of the Consumer
Price Index (CPI-U) for all items as established by www.bls.gov when the CPI-U exceeds an annual rate of one percent (1%).
15.3 Should ECS identify a Changed Condition(s), ECS shall notify the CLIENT of the Changed Condition(s). ECS and CLIENT shall promptly and in good faith negotiate an
amendment to the scope of Services, professional fees, and time schedule.
15.4 CLIENT recognizes that time is of the essence with respect to payment of ECS’s invoices, and that timely payment is a material consideration for this Agreement. All
payment shall be in U.S. funds drawn upon U.S. banks and in accordance with the rates and charges set forth in the professional Fees. Invoices are due and payable
upon receipt. The parties acknowledge and agree that any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or related to failure of CLIENT to pay ECS’s invoices pursuant to the
Terms of this Agreement shall be instituted in Fairfax County Circuit Court located in Fairfax, Virginia or such other court of competent jurisdiction, in ECS’s sole and
absolute discretion. Each of the parties waives any objection that it may have to the venue of any such suit, action, or proceeding, and each of the parties hereby irrevocably
consents to the personal jurisdiction of any such court in any such suit, action or proceeding.
15.5 If CLIENT disputes all or part of an invoice, CLIENT shall provide ECS with written notice stating in detail the facts of the dispute within fifteen (15) calendar days of the
invoice date. CLIENT agrees to pay the undisputed amount of such invoice promptly.
15.6 ECS reserves the right to charge CLIENT an additional charge of one-and-one-half (1.5) percent (or the maximum percentage allowed by Law, whichever is lower) of the
invoiced amount per month for any payment received by ECS more than thirty (30) calendar days from the date of the invoice, excepting any portion of the invoiced amount
in dispute. All payments will be applied to accrued interest first and then to the unpaid principal amount. Payment of invoices shall not be subject to unilateral discounting
or set offs by CLIENT. CLIENT acknowledges that all payments made by credit card shall be subject to a three percent (3%) convenience fee.
15.7 CLIENT agrees that its obligation to pay for the Services is not contingent upon CLIENT’S ability to obtain financing, zoning, approval of governmental or regulatory
agencies, permits, final adjudication of a lawsuit, CLIENT’S successful completion of the Project, settlement of a real estate transaction, receipt of payment from CLIENT’s
Page 133 of 194
Page 3 of 4 Ver. 01/01/2026
client, or any other event unrelated to ECS provision of Services. Retainage shall not be withheld from any payment, nor shall any deduction be made from any invoice
on account of penalty, liquidated damages, or other sums incurred by CLIENT. It is agreed that all costs and legal fees including actual attorney's fees, and expenses
incurred by ECS in obtaining payment under this Agreement, in perfecting or obtaining a lien, recovery under a bond, collecting any delinquent amounts due, or executing
judgments, shall be reimbursed by CLIENT.
15.8 Unless CLIENT has provided notice to ECS in accordance with Section 16.0 of these Terms, payment of any invoice by the CLIENT shall mean that the CLIENT is satisfied
with ECS’s Services and is not aware of any defects in those Services.
16.0 DEFECTS IN SERVICE
16.1 CLIENT and CLIENT’s Contractors shall promptly inform ECS during active work on any project of any actual or suspected defects in the Services so to permit ECS to
take such prompt, effective remedial measures that in ECS’s opinion will reduce or eliminate the consequences of any such defective Services. The correction of defects
attributable to ECS’s failure to perform in accordance with the Standard of Care shall be provided at no cost to CLIENT. However, ECS shall not be responsible for the
correction of any deficiency attributable to client-furnished information, the errors, omissions, defective materials, or improper installation of materials by CLIENT’s
personnel, consultants or contractors, or work not observed by ECS. CLIENT shall compensate ECS for the costs of correcting such defects.
16.2 Modifications to reports, documents and plans required as a result of jurisdictional reviews or CLIENT requests shall not be considered to be defects. CLIENT shall
compensate ECS for the provision of such Services.
17.0 INSURANCE - ECS represents that it and its subcontractors and subconsultants maintain workers compensation insurance, and that ECS is covered by general liability,
automobile and professional liability insurance policies in coverage amounts it deems reasonable and adequate. ECS shall furnish certificates of insurance upon request.
The CLIENT is responsible for requesting specific inclusions or limits of coverage that are not present in ECS insurance package. The cost of such inclusions or coverage
increases, if available, will be at the expense of the CLIENT.
18.0 LIMITATION OF LIABILITY
18.1 CLIENT AGREES TO ALLOCATE CERTAIN RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH THE PROJECT BY LIMITING ECS’S TOTAL LIABILITY TO CLIENT ARISING FROM ECS’S PROFESSIONAL LIABILITY, I.E.
PROFESSIONAL ACTS, ERRORS, OR OMISSIONS AND FOR ANY AND ALL CAUSES INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE, STRICT LIABILITY, BREACH OF CONTRACT, OR BREACH OF WARRANTY, INJURIES,
DAMAGES, CLAIMS, LOSSES, EXPENSES, OR CLAIM EXPENSES (INCLUDING REASONABLE ATTORNEY’S FEES) RELATING TO PROFESSIONAL SERVICES PROVIDED UNDER THIS AGREEMENT TO
THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW. THE ALLOCATION IS AS FOLLOWS:
18.1.1 If the proposed fees are $10,000 or less, ECS’s total aggregate liability to CLIENT shall not exceed $20,000, or the total fee received for the services rendered,
whichever is greater.
18.1.2 If the proposed fees are in excess of $10,000, ECS’s total aggregate liability to CLIENT shall not exceed $50,000, or the total fee for the services rendered,
whichever is greater.
18.2 CLIENT agrees that ECS shall not be responsible for any injury, loss or damage of any nature, including bodily injury and property damage, arising directly or indirectly, in
whole or in part, from acts or omissions by the CLIENT, its employees, agents, staff, consultants, contractors, or subcontractors to the extent such injury, damage, or loss
is caused by acts or omissions of CLIENT, its employees, agents, staff, consultants, contractors, subcontractors or person/entities for whom CLIENT is legally liable.
18.3 CLIENT agrees that ECS’s liability for all non-professional liability arising out of this Agreement or the services provided as a result of the Proposal be limited to $500,000.
19.0 INDEMNIFICATION
19.1 Subject to Section 18.0, ECS agrees to hold harmless and indemnify CLIENT from and against damages arising from ECS’s negligent performance of its Services, but
only to the extent that such damages are found to be caused by ECS’s negligent acts, errors or omissions, (specifically excluding any damages caused by any third party
or by the CLIENT.) ECS does not waive any limitations it may have on its liability under the Illinois Workers Compensation Act, or any other statute.
19.2 To the fullest extent permitted by law, CLIENT agrees to indemnify, and hold ECS harmless from and against any and all liability, claims, damages, demands, fines,
penalties, costs and expenditures (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs of litigation defense and/or settlement) (“Damages”) caused in whole or in part by the
acts, errors, or omissions of the CLIENT or CLIENT’s employees, agents, staff, contractors, subcontractors, consultants, and clients, provided such Damages are
attributable to: (a) the bodily injury, personal injury, sickness, disease and/or death of any person; (b) the injury to or loss of value to tangible personal property; or (c) a
breach of these Terms. The foregoing indemnification shall not apply to the extent such Damage is found to be caused by the sole negligence, errors, omissions or willful
misconduct of ECS.
19.3 It is specifically understood and agreed that in no case shall ECS be required to pay an amount of Damages disproportional to ECS’s culpability. IF CLIENT IS A HOMEOWNER,
HOMEOWNERS’ ASSOCIATION, CONDOMINIUM OWNER, CONDOMINIUM OWNERS’ ASSOCIATION, OR SIMILAR RESIDENTIAL OWNER, ECS RECOMMENDS THAT CLIENT RETAIN LEGAL COUNSEL
BEFORE ENTERING INTO THIS AGREEMENT TO EXPLAIN CLIENT’S RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS HEREUNDER, AND THE LIMITATIONS, AND RESTRICTIONS IMPOSED BY THIS AGREEMENT.
CLIENT AGREES THAT FAILURE OF CLIENT TO RETAIN SUCH COUNSEL SHALL BE A KNOWING WAIVER OF LEGAL COUNSEL AND SHALL NOT BE ALLOWED ON GROUNDS OF AVOIDING ANY
PROVISION OF THIS AGREEMENT.
19.4 I F CLIENT IS A RESIDENTIAL BUILDER OR RESIDENTIAL DEVELOPER, CLIENT SHALL INDEMNIFY AND HOLD HARMLESS ECS AGAINST ANY AND ALL CLAIMS OR DEMANDS DUE TO INJURY OR
LOSS INITIATED BY ONE OR MORE HOMEOWNERS, UNIT-OWNERS, OR THEIR HOMEOWNER’S ASSOCIATION, COOPERATIVE BOARD, OR SIMILAR GOVERNING ENTITY AGAINST CLIENT WHICH

other cause of action. Consequential damages include, but are not limited to, loss of use and loss of profit.

person or entity shall not be deemed a third-party beneficiary to the AGREEMENT. No third-party shall have the right to rely on ECS’s opinions rendered in connection
with ECS’s Services without written consent from both CLIENT and ECS, which shall include, at a minimum, the third-party's agreement to be bound to the same Terms
and Conditions contained herein and third-party’s agreement that ECS’s Scope of Services performed is adequate.

Phase I Environmental Site Assessment
The Phase I Environmental Site Assessment (ESA) will be prepared in general accordance with ASTM
Standard E1527-21, Standard Practice for Phase I Environmental Site Assessments. We note that
there may be some instances which require an adjustment to the quoted price for this Phase I ESA
if supplemental investigation, additional lender requirements or other services, beyond the scope
outlined in this proposal, are requested.We would notify you in advance if these additional services
would result in increased fees.
To expedite the preparation of the Phase I ESA, please provide ECS with the following:
1. Copies of updated site plans/plots which you may have available;
2. A point of contact for site access;
3. A current chain-of-ownership for the subject property (preferably dating back to 1940 or
earlier);
4. The name and telephone number of the current owner so that ECS may conduct an
interview; and,
5. A completed User Questionnaire (blank form for your use is attached).
In accordance with the ASTM protocol, it is the obligation of the "User" (i.e., the party relying on the
report) to report to the environmental professional (i.e., ECS) any environmental liens encumbering
the property or any specialized knowledge or experience of the User that would provide information
about previous ownership or uses of the property that may be material to identifying recognized
environmental conditions. Based on this, ECS requests any previous environmental information
related to the property.
We have attached the User Questionnaire to assist the User and the environmental professional (ECS)
in gathering information from the User that may be material to identifying recognized environmental
conditions with respect to the site.As the User of the report, please complete the attached User
Questionnaire and return it with the signed proposal. The User Questionnaire should be completed by the
User of the Phase I ESA, which is the party to whom the report is addressed. ECS will conduct a separate
interview with the property owner (assuming owner contact information is provided). We request that the
User Questionnaire be completed and returned to ECS at the same time this proposal is authorized to
avoid delays in delivering the final report. All answers on the User Questionnaire should be provided
only to the best of your current knowledge; completion of the User Questionnaire should not require
additional research by the User or inquiry to the current property owner. ECS will conduct a separate
interview with the current property owner. This User Questionnaire will be included in the Phase I
ESA Report and will assist in satisfying the “User’s Responsibilities” portion of the ASTM Standard.
ECS will prepare one Phase I ESA Report for the subject property. A copy of the report will be
forwarded electronically upon completion of the project.
Optional Services:
Environmental Lien and Activity and Use Limitation Search

53:10423
ECS Midwest, LLC
Page 2
Page 155 of 194
In addition, the ASTM standard also requires a search for the existence of environmental liens
and activity and use limitations (AULs) in accordance with 40 CFR Part 312. If this information
is not readily available, ECS can contract with a third party provider to conduct this search for
an additional fee. It should be noted that failure to obtain this information may preclude your
ability to qualify for certain liability protections under CERCLA. Please indicate on the attached
authorization page if you would prefer ECS to obtain this information on your behalf for an
additional fee of $450 per parcel.(The ASTM E1527-21 standard allows the user to utilize title
commitment reports, title insurance, or other equivalent title research in lieu of a specific Lien
and AUL search. If such documents are available, please transmit them to ECS prior to the
completion of the Phase I ESA report.)
Engineering Grant Assistance
The completion of Environmental Hazards Assessment WDNR Form 1800-001 is included in this task.
Please note that this form must be completed and approved by the Department of Natural Resources
(DNR) before grant funds can be expended for land acquisition and development projects.Please
note that ECS will provide the completed form to you for your submittal to the DNR.
Additionally, up to 8 hours has been budgeted for engineering grant assistance for this task to be
billed at a rate of $175/hour. Please note that the number of hours is an estimate and ECS will only
bill for the number of hours actually needed for this task. Any additional hours needed will be billed
at the same daily rate above with prior approval from the client.
Out of Scope Items
If, during the performance of our scope of services, additional environmental issues are identified
that are beyond the Scope of Services outlined within this proposal, ECS may contact Baxter &
Woodman Consulting Engineers to discuss the relevance and significance of the finding in order to
determine if the finding merits additional assessment, inclusion in our final report, or a modification
to our Scope of Services and fee.
Safety
ECS personnel are responsible for their own personal safety. While on site, if ECS personnel deem
a condition unsafe and the performance of our scope of services cannot be completed, you will be
notified of the unsafe condition. ECS personnel will not proceed further with the scope of services in
that area until the unsafe condition is corrected.Access delays associated with safety concerns may
result in additional fees.
PROJECT FEES AND SCHEDULE
Project Fees
ECS will provide the proposed scope of services for the lump sum fees indicated on the attached
Proposal Acceptance Formand based upon the service level selected by the Client. Our fees are
based on the chain of title, third party AUL search and property owner/contact information being
provided by you or your agents, unless otherwise indicated.

control of ECS, ECS will wait until such time either that the area is accessible or the unsafe conditions
are corrected. If ECS must make additional visits to the site, a change order will be provided for our
additional fees.
If other items are required because of unexpected field conditions encountered in our fieldwork,
or because of a request for additional services,they would be invoiced as an agreed-to lump sum
fee or in accordance with the ECS Fee Schedule (available upon request) in effect at the time of the
service. Before expanding our scope of service that increased our fee, you would be informed of our
intentions for both your review and authorization.
LIMITATIONS AND ASSUMPTIONS
Conclusions and recommendations pertaining to environmental conditions at the subject site are
limited to the conditions observedat the time this study will be undertaken. The assessment is not
intended to represent an exhaustive research of every potential hazard or condition that may exist,
nor does it claim to represent conditions or events that arise after the assessment.
We have made the following assumptions in developing this proposal:
• Prices presented herein are valid for 120 days from the date of this proposal.
• One color electronic version (PDF format) of the report(s) will be provided upon completion
of the project. Bound reports can be provided for an additional fee.

additional labor fees may be invoiced to review to data, to edit our report, and to reissue
our report. Please provide any available due diligence information at the beginning of the
project.
• Please note that ASTM standard indicates that regulatory agency files available for the
subject property or adjoining properties should be reviewed and failure to do so may result
in data gaps in our report. The lump sum fee offered for the Phase I ESA does not include
expanded reviews of regulatory files for the subject site and/or adjacent properties which
are not available electronically, or if the file information may not be reasonably ascertainable
within the project schedule. If the subject property and/or adjacent properties are identified

Proposal No.: (hereinafter the “Proposal”)
Client:
ECS MIDWEST, LLC
TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF SERVICE
The professional services (the “Services”) to be provided by ECS MIDWEST, LLC (“ECS”) pursuant to the Proposal shall be provided in accordance with these Terms and
Conditions of Service (“Terms”), including any addenda as may be incorporated or referenced in writing and shall form the Agreement between ECS and CLIENT.
1.0 INDEPENDENT CONSULTANT STATUS - ECS shall serve as an independent professional consultant to CLIENT for Services on the Project and shall have control over,
and responsibility for, the means and methods for providing the Services identified in the Proposal, including the retention of Subcontractors and Subconsultants
2.0 SCOPE OF SERVICES - It is understood that the fees, reimbursable expenses and time schedule defined in the Proposal are based on information provided by CLIENT
and/or CLIENT’S, agents, contractors and consultants (“Contractors”). CLIENT acknowledges that if this information is not current, is incomplete or inaccurate, if conditions
are discovered that could not be reasonably foreseen, or if CLIENT orders additional services, the scope of services will change, even while the Services are in progress.
3.0 STANDARD OF CARE
3.1 In fulfilling its obligations and responsibilities enumerated in the Proposal, ECS shall be expected to comply with and its performance evaluated in light of the
standard of care expected of professionals in the industry performing similar services on projects of like size and complexity at that time in the region (the
“Standard of Care”). Nothing contained in the Proposal, the agreed-upon scope of Services, these Terms or any ECS report, opinion, plan or other document
prepared by ECS shall constitute a warranty or guarantee of any nature whatsoever.
3.2 CLIENT understands and agrees that ECS will rely on the facts learned from data gathered during performance of Services as well as those facts provided by the CLIENT
and/or CLIENT’S contractors and consultants. CLIENT acknowledges that such data collection is limited to specific areas that are sampled, bored, tested, observed and/or
evaluated. Consequently, CLIENT waives any and all claims based upon erroneous facts provided by the CLIENT, facts subsequently learned or regarding conditions in
areas not specifically sampled, bored, tested, observed or evaluated by ECS.
3.3 If a situation arises that causes ECS to believe compliance with CLIENT’S directives would be contrary to sound engineering practices, would violate applicable laws,
regulations or codes, or will expose ECS to legal claims or charges, ECS shall so advise CLIENT. If ECS’s professional judgment is rejected, ECS shall have the right to
terminate its Services in accordance with the provisions of Section 25.0, below.
3.4 If CLIENT decides to disregard ECS’s recommendations with respect to complying with applicable laws or regulations, ECS shall determine if applicable law requires ECS
to notify the appropriate public officials. CLIENT agrees that such determinations are ECS’s sole right to make.
4.0 CLIENT DISCLOSURES
4.1 Where the Services requires ECS to penetrate a surface, CLIENT shall furnish and/or shall direct CLIENT’S or CLIENT’S Contractors to furnish ECS information identifying
the type and location of utility lines and other man-made objects known, suspected, or assumed to be located beneath or behind the Site's surface. ECS shall be entitled
to rely on such information for completeness and accuracy without further investigation, analysis, or evaluation.
4.2 “Hazardous Materials” shall include but not be limited to any substance that poses or may pose a present or potential hazard to human health or the environment whether
contained in a product, material, by-product, waste, or sample, and whether it exists in a solid, liquid, semi-solid or gaseous form. CLIENT shall notify ECS of any known,
assumed, or suspected regulated, contaminated, or other similar Hazardous Materials that may exist at the Site prior to ECS mobilizing to the Site.
4.3 If any Hazardous Materials are discovered or are reasonably suspected by ECS after its Services begin, ECS shall be entitled to amend the scope of Services and adjust
its fees or fee schedule to reflect any additional work or personal protective equipment and/or safety precautions required by the existence of such Hazardous Materials.
5.0 INFORMATION PROVIDED BY OTHERS - CLIENT waives, releases and discharges ECS from and against any claim for damage, injury or loss allegedly arising out of
or in connection with errors, omissions, or inaccuracies in documents and other information in any form provided to ECS by CLIENT or CLIENT’s Contractors, including
such information that becomes incorporated into ECS documents.
6.0 CONCEALED RISKS - CLIENT acknowledges that special risks are inherent in sampling, testing and/or evaluating concealed conditions that are hidden from view and/or
neither readably apparent nor easily accessible, e.g., subsurface conditions, conditions behind a wall, beneath a floor, or above a ceiling. Such circumstances require that
certain assumptions be made regarding existing conditions, which may not be verifiable without expending additional sums of money or destroying otherwise adequate or
serviceable portions of a building or component thereof. Accordingly, ECS shall not be responsible for the verification of such conditions unless verification can be made
by simple visual observation. CLIENT agrees to bear any and all costs, losses, damages and expenses (including, but not limited to, the cost of ECS’s additional services)
in any way arising from or in connection with the existence or discovery of such concealed or unknown conditions.
7.0 RIGHT OF ENTRY/DAMAGE RESULTING FROM SERVICES
7.1 CLIENT warrants that it possesses the authority to grant ECS right of entry to the site for the performance of Services. CLIENT hereby grants ECS and its agents,
subcontractors and/or subconsultants (“Subconsultants”), the right to enter from time to time onto the property in order for ECS to perform its Services. CLIENT agrees to
indemnify and hold ECS and its Subconsultants harmless from any claims arising from allegations that ECS trespassed or lacked authority to access the Site.
7.2 CLIENT warrants that it possesses all necessary permits, licenses and/or utility clearances for the Services to be provided by ECS except where ECS’s Proposal explicitly
states that ECS will obtain such permits, licenses, and/or utility clearances.
7.3 ECS will take reasonable precautions to limit damage to the Site and its improvements during the performance of its Services. CLIENT understands that the use of
exploration, boring, sampling, or testing equipment may cause damage to the Site. The correction and restoration of such common damage is CLIENT’S responsibility
unless specifically included in ECS’s Proposal.
7.4 CLIENT agrees that it will not bring any claims for liability or for injury or loss against ECS arising from (i) procedures associated with the exploration, sampling or testing
activities at the Site, (ii) discovery of Hazardous Materials or suspected Hazardous Materials, or (iii) ECS’s findings, conclusions, opinions, recommendations, plans, and/or
specifications related to discovery of contamination.
8.0 UNDERGROUND UTILITIES
8.1 ECS shall exercise the Standard of Care in evaluating client-furnished information as well as information readily and customarily available from public utility locating
services (the “Underground Utility Information”) in its effort to identify underground utilities. The extent of such evaluations shall be at ECS’s sole discretion.
8.2 CLIENT recognizes that the Underground Utility Information provided to or obtained by ECS may contain errors or be incomplete. CLIENT understands that ECS may be
unable to identify the locations of all subsurface utility lines and man-made features. CLIENT shall notify ECS in writing of any private utilities or nonferrous piping that
would not be found with standard magnetic detection devices. CLIENT shall be charged an additional fee if ECS is requested to use ground penetrating radar in an effort
to locating underground utilities or structures.
8.3 CLIENT shall indemnify, defend, and hold ECS harmless from and against any claim for damage, injury or loss allegedly arising from or related to subterranean structures
(pipes, tanks, cables, or other utilities, etc.) which are not called to ECS’s attention in writing by CLIENT, not correctly shown on the Underground Utility Information and/or
not properly marked or located by the utility owners, governmental or quasi-governmental locators, or private utility locating services as a result of ECS’s or ECS’s
Subconsultant’s request for utility marking services made in accordance with local industry standards.
9.0 SAMPLES
9.1 Soil, rock, water, building materials and/or other samples and sampling by-products obtained from the Site are and remain the property of CLIENT. Unless other
arrangements are requested by CLIENT and mutually agreed upon by ECS in writing, ECS will retain samples not consumed in laboratory testing for up to sixty (60)
calendar days after the first issuance of any document containing data obtained from such samples. Samples consumed by laboratory testing procedures will not be stored.
9.2 Unless CLIENT directs otherwise, and excluding those issues covered in Section 10.0, CLIENT authorizes ECS to dispose of CLIENT’S non-hazardous samples and
sampling or testing by-products in accordance with applicable laws and regulations.
10.0 ENVIRONMENTAL RISKS
10.1 When Hazardous Materials are known, assumed, suspected to exist, or discovered at the Site, ECS will endeavor to protect its employees and address public health,
safety, and environmental issues in accordance with the Standard of Care. CLIENT agrees to compensate ECS for such efforts.
Page 163 of 194
Page 2 of 4 Ver. 01/01/2026
10.2 When Hazardous Materials are known, assumed, or suspected to exist, or discovered at the Site, ECS and/or ECS’s subcontractors will exercise the Standard of Care in
containerizing and labeling such Hazardous Materials in accordance with applicable laws and regulations, and will leave the containers on Site. CLIENT is responsible for
the retrieval, removal, transport and disposal of such contaminated samples, and sampling process byproducts in accordance with applicable law and regulation.
10.3 Unless explicitly stated in the Scope of Services, ECS will neither subcontract for nor arrange for the transport, disposal, or treatment of Hazardous Materials. At CLIENT’S
written request, ECS may assist CLIENT in identifying appropriate alternatives for transport, off-site treatment, storage, or disposal of such substances, but CLIENT shall
be solely responsible for the final selection of methods and firms to provide such services. CLIENT shall sign all manifests for the disposal of substances affected by
contaminants and shall otherwise exercise prudence in arranging for lawful disposal.
10.4 In those instances where ECS is expressly retained by CLIENT to assist CLIENT in the disposal of Hazardous Materials, samples, or wastes as part of the Proposal, ECS
shall do so only as CLIENT’S agent (notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary). ECS will not assume the role of, nor be considered a generator,
storer, transporter, or disposer of Hazardous Materials.
10.5 Subsurface sampling may result in unavoidable cross-contamination of certain subsurface areas, as when a probe or excavation/boring device moves through a
contaminated zone and links it to an aquifer, underground stream, pervious soil stratum, or other hydrous body not previously contaminated, or connects an uncontaminated
zone with a contaminated zone. Because sampling is an essential element of the Services indicated herein, CLIENT agrees this risk cannot be eliminated. Provided such
services were performed in accordance with the Standard of Care, CLIENT waives, releases and discharges ECS from and against any claim for damage, injury, or loss
allegedly arising from or related to such cross-contamination.
10.6 CLIENT understands that a Phase I Environmental Site Assessment (ESA) is conducted solely to permit ECS to render a professional opinion about the likelihood of the
site having a Recognized Environmental Condition on, in, beneath, or near the Site at the time the Services are conducted. No matter how thorough a Phase I ESA study
may be, findings derived from its conduct are highly limited and ECS cannot know or state for an absolute fact that the Site is unaffected or adversely affected by one or
more Recognized Environmental Conditions. CLIENT represents and warrants that it understands the limitations associated with Phase I ESAs.
11.0 OWNERSHIP OF DOCUMENTS
11.1 ECS shall be deemed the author and owner (or licensee) of all documents, technical reports, letters, photos, boring logs, field data, field notes, laboratory test data,
calculations, designs, plans, specifications, reports, or similar documents and estimates of any kind furnished by it [the “Documents of Service”] and shall retain all common
law, statutory and other reserved rights, including copyrights. CLIENT shall have a limited, non-exclusive license to use copies of the Documents of Service provided to it
in connection with its Project for which the Documents of Service are provided until the completion of the Project.
11.2 ECS’s Services are performed, and Documents of Service are provided for the CLIENT’S sole use. CLIENT understands and agrees that any use of the Documents of
Service by anyone other than the CLIENT and its Contractors is not permitted. CLIENT further agrees to indemnify and hold ECS harmless for any errors, omissions or
damage resulting from its contractors’ use of ECS’s Documents of Service.
11.3 Without ECS’s prior written consent, CLIENT agrees to not use ECS’s Documents of Service for the Project if the Project is subsequently modified in scope, structure or
purpose. Any reuse without ECS’s written consent shall be at CLIENT’S sole risk and without liability to ECS or its Subconsultants. CLIENT agrees to indemnify and hold
ECS harmless for any errors, omissions or Damage resulting from its use of ECS’s Documents of Service after any modification in scope, structure or purpose.
11.4 CLIENT agrees to not make any modification to the Documents of Service without the prior written authorization of ECS. To the fullest extent permitted by law, CLIENT
agrees to indemnify, defend, and hold ECS harmless from any damage, loss, claim, liability or cost (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and defense costs) arising out of
or in connection with any unauthorized modification of the Documents of Service by CLIENT or any person or entity that acquires or obtains the Documents of Service
from or through CLIENT. CLIENT represents and warrants that the Documents of Service shall be used only as submitted by ECS.
12.0 SAFETY
12.1 Unless expressly agreed to in writing in its Proposal, CLIENT agrees that ECS shall have no responsibility whatsoever for any aspect of site safety other than for its own
employees. Nothing herein shall be construed to relieve CLIENT and/or its Contractors from their responsibility for site safety. CLIENT also represents and warrants that
the General Contractor is solely responsible for Project site safety and that ECS personnel may rely on the safety measures provided by the General Contractor.
12.2 In the event ECS assumes in writing limited responsibility for specified safety issues, the acceptance of such responsibilities does not and shall not be deemed an
acceptance of responsibility for any other non-specified safety issues, including, but not limited to those relating to excavating, fall protection, shoring, drilling, backfilling,
blasting, or other construction activities.
13.0 CONSTRUCTION TESTING AND REMEDIATION SERVICES
13.1 CLIENT understands that construction testing and observation services are provided in an effort to reduce, but cannot eliminate, the risk of problems arising during or after
construction or remediation. CLIENT agrees that the provision of such Services does not create a warranty or guarantee of any type.
13.2 Monitoring and/or testing services provided by ECS shall not in any way relieve the CLIENT’S contractor(s) from their responsibilities and obligations for the quality or
completeness of construction as well as their obligation to comply with applicable laws, codes, and regulations.
13.3 ECS has no responsibility whatsoever for the means, methods, techniques, sequencing or procedures of construction selected, for safety precautions and programs
incidental to work or services provided by any contractor or other consultant. ECS does not and shall not have or accept authority to supervise, direct, control, or stop the
work of any of CLIENT’S Contractors or any of their subcontractors.
13.4 ECS strongly recommends that CLIENT retain ECS to provide construction monitoring and testing services on a full-time basis to lower the risk of defective or incomplete
work being installed by CLIENT’S Contractors. If CLIENT elects to retain ECS on a part-time or on-call basis for any aspect of construction monitoring and/or testing,
CLIENT accepts the risk that a lower level of construction quality may occur and that defective or incomplete work may result and not be detected by ECS’s part time
monitoring and testing in exchange for CLIENT’S receipt of an immediate cost savings. Unless the CLIENT can show that ECS’s errors or omissions are contained in
ECS’s reports, CLIENT waives, releases and discharges ECS from and against any other claims for errors, omissions, damages, injuries, or loss alleged to arise from
defective or incomplete work that was monitored or tested by ECS on a part-time or on-call basis. Except as set forth in the preceding sentence, CLIENT agrees to
indemnify and hold ECS harmless from all Damages, costs, and attorneys’ fees, for any claims alleging errors, omissions, damage, injury or loss allegedly resulting from
work that was monitored or tested by ECS on a part-time or on-call basis.
14.0 CERTIFICATIONS - CLIENT may request, or governing jurisdictions may require, ECS to provide a “certification” regarding the Services provided by ECS. Any
“certification” required of ECS by the CLIENT or jurisdiction(s) having authority over some or all aspects of the Project shall consist of ECS’s inferences and professional
opinions based on the limited sampling, observations, tests, and/or analyses performed by ECS at discrete locations and times. Such “certifications” shall constitute ECS’s
professional opinion of a condition's existence, but ECS does not guarantee that such condition exists, nor does it relieve other parties of the responsibilities or obligations
such parties have with respect to the possible existence of such a condition. CLIENT agrees it cannot make the resolution of any dispute with ECS or payment of any
amount due to ECS contingent upon ECS signing any such “certification.”
15.0 BILLINGS AND PAYMENTS
15.1 Billings will be based on the unit rates, plus travel costs, and other reimbursable expenses as stated in the professional fees section of the Proposal. Any estimate of
professional fees stated shall not be considered as a not-to-exceed or lump sum amount unless otherwise explicitly stated. CLIENT understands and agrees that even if
ECS agrees to a lump sum or not-to-exceed amount, that amount shall be limited to number of hours, visits, trips, tests, borings, or samples stated in the Proposal.
15.2 CLIENT agrees that all professional fees and other unit rates may be adjusted annually to account for inflation based on the most recent 12-month average of the Consumer
Price Index (CPI-U) for all items as established by www.bls.gov when the CPI-U exceeds an annual rate of one percent (1%).
15.3 Should ECS identify a Changed Condition(s), ECS shall notify the CLIENT of the Changed Condition(s). ECS and CLIENT shall promptly and in good faith negotiate an
amendment to the scope of Services, professional fees, and time schedule.
15.4 CLIENT recognizes that time is of the essence with respect to payment of ECS’s invoices, and that timely payment is a material consideration for this Agreement. All
payment shall be in U.S. funds drawn upon U.S. banks and in accordance with the rates and charges set forth in the professional Fees. Invoices are due and payable
upon receipt. The parties acknowledge and agree that any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or related to failure of CLIENT to pay ECS’s invoices pursuant to the
Terms of this Agreement shall be instituted in Fairfax County Circuit Court located in Fairfax, Virginia or such other court of competent jurisdiction, in ECS’s sole and
absolute discretion. Each of the parties waives any objection that it may have to the venue of any such suit, action, or proceeding, and each of the parties hereby irrevocably
