Should the City be required to bring an action against the Consultant to assert its right to
defense or indemnification under this Agreement or under the Consultant’s applicable insurance
policies required below the City shall be entitled to recover reasonable costs and attorney fees
incurred in asserting its right to indemnification or defense but only if a court of competent

In the event of an action filed against City resulting from the City’s performance under
this Agreement, the City may elect to represent itself and incur all costs and expenses of suit.
Consultant also waives any and all claims and recourse against the City, including the right of
contribution for loss or damage to person or property arising from, growing out of, or in any way
connected with or incident to the performance of this Agreement except “responsibility for
[City’s] own fraud, for willful injury to the person or property of another, or for violation of law,
whether willful or negligent” as per 28-2-702, MCA.
These obligations shall survive termination of this Agreement and the services performed
hereunder.
In addition to and independent from the above, Consultant shall at Consultant’s expense
secure insurance coverage through an insurance company or companies duly licensed and
authorized to conduct insurance business in Montana which insures the liabilities and obligations

EXHIBIT A - SCOPE AND FEE DESCRIPTION
Sourdough Water Tank Evaluation
August 13, 2024 (REVISED)
Page 1 of 2
SCOPE OF SERVICES
We understand that repairs to the existing buried water tank on Sourdough Road south of Goldenstein Lane in Bozeman, Montana are planned soon. However, structural concerns for the tank’s stability have been identified if the tank were to be emptied and ground water conditions are located above the tank bottom. The current tank is estimated to extend approximately 30 feet below grade around most of its perimeter. Additionally, options for new drain line alignments are to be investigated and the drain line is reported to be planned at a depth of approximately 25 feet. The purpose of the geotechnical investigation proposed is to assess subsurface conditions around the tank, identify ground water elevation, and install wells for future use in monitoring and/or design of permanent dewatering systems on the property. Well logs in the vicinity of the project site report, clay soils extending to depths of approximately 20 feet before encountering gravel formations.
1. GEOTECHNICAL SCOPE OF SERVICES A. Field Investigation We propose using drilled borings to investigate the subsurface conditions due to the required depth necessary and to facilitate the installation of monitoring wells. We anticipate drilling two 40-ft deep borings and one 30-ft deep boring around the existing tank and installing monitoring wells in each. The intent with monitoring wells will be to ensure a bottom elevation at least ten feet below ground water level for use in any future dewatering system design and is the minimum number of wells advised should this design be necessary. Wells will be standard 2-inch PVC monitoring wells, the largest possible with this type of drilling equipment, with a protective monument installed at the ground surface. One additional boring extending to a maximum depth of 20 feet is
planned at the site access road off Sourdough per your request. During drilling, the subsurface profile will be observed and logged by an experienced geotechnical engineer. Samples will be collected as augering proceeds. We have assumed that
spoils from borings can remain on the site and be spread out around each drilling location.
Prior to our field investigation we will stake the proposed boring locations and call in the required One Call Utility locates. We will rely on the city to mark all private lines and existing drain lines associated with the current tank near each proposed boring location. Our field scope of work does not include determining the presence or absence of subsurface soil and ground water contamination. However, if contamination is suspected during our fieldwork, we will notify you at once. B. Laboratory Program Samples will be analyzed in our construction materials testing laboratory to determine the appropriate physical and engineering properties. The proposed laboratory program includes:

• Visual identification and moisture content
• Sieve analysis (gradation)
• Atterberg Limits
• Unconfined Compression of Fine-Grained Soils
• Standard Proctor
These tests are based on our assumptions for site geology and may be modified based on actual field conditions. Samples from the geotechnical investigation will be stored for
a period of one month following submission of the completed geotechnical report at which time they will be discarded unless prior arrangements have been made for sample storage.
C. Analysis and Report
Field data and laboratory test results will be analyzed to determine soil properties and prepare our engineering analysis and recommendations for consideration of the structural engineer. At this time we anticipate providing recommendations pertaining to
lateral soil pressures to be considered by the structural engineer based on the backfill conditions observed in the borings. We will also discuss ground water conditions at the time of our investigation and the need for dewatering during construction. However at this time, monitoring of the wells and design of a dewatering system is not included in the scope of work for the project. Dewatering system design would require a larger pumping well be installed by a water well driller who would also assist with completing a pump test to measure critical aquifer parameters for use in that design. The proposed monitoring wells would be used as part of this test to measure drawdown radially around the tank during pumping, and are an critical component of the pump system design, if determined to be required. We can provide a proposal for these additional services if ground water conditions indicate the need for site wide dewatering.
Ground water monitoring can be performed by others or by TD&H for an additional fee. Each trip to collect ground water data is estimated to cost approximately $300 and we
would advise weekly data collection cycles during the spring of 2025 during which ground water elevations typically peak.
The results of our field and laboratory studies and engineering analyses, along with our limited recommendations, will be summarized in a geotechnical engineering report. The report will include copies of all boring logs, laboratory test reports, and a site plan
showing the approximate location of the borings.
