RE: Due Diligence & Preliminary Planning
Ferguson and Bradshaw Quarry W&R Site Consolidation
Orange County, NC
Draper Aden Associates Proposal No.: P2200693
Mr. Williams:
At your request we offer this proposal for engineering services for due diligence investigation and
preliminary planning for a new Waste and Recycling Center to consolidate the existing Ferguson and
Bradshaw Quarry sites. This proposal outlines our understanding of the project scope, tasks to be
completed, assumptions underlying our fee proposal, and fees for various project tasks.
I. PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The project consists of a due diligence investigation and preliminary plan to locate a new Waste
and Recycling Center to replace the two sites listed above. The proposed modernized consolidation of the
two sites would serve the community with updated facilities and equipment, adequate room for vehicular
traffic flow and employee parking with a "hybrid" design between that of a district center (such as Walnut
and Eubanks) and a neighborhood center (such as High Rock). The new 'hybrid" type center will
accommodate the residential community in the southwestern quadrant of the County with more
accessibility, clearer signage, secure fencing and the County will own the property. This model will allow
the County, going forward, to be in control of the property rather than operate on leased property.
II. SCOPE OF SERVICES
Draper Aden Associates will assist OCSW in a due diligence investigation of the proposed sites
located near the intersection of NC 54 and Orange Grove Road. In addition, preliminary layouts will be
generated for use in meetings and project cost estimating. Below is a description of the Tasks that will be
completed:
A. Property Acquisition Fact Finding: Assist the County with contact and discussions with the
current owner of the three potential parcels, Orange Water and Sewer Authority (OWASA) to
investigate land transfer or other acceptable ways for OCSW to utilize the parcel(s)
B. Preliminary Septic Investigation: DAA will engage a licensed soil scientist to perform a
preliminary investigation of the selected site to determine areas for potential septic systems and
acceptable soils.

approvals and necessary improvements to be undertaken. Input from the agency meetings will
be incorporated into a selected layout.

• NCDOT
E. Cost Estimation: Upon finalization of the preliminary layout, a detailed cost estimate for the
project will be generated for use in budgeting and final project planning.
