(Corrections made.) Ron Buccilli moved to accept the amendment to the minutes, seconded by Vice Chairman William DeMore.
3. Public Comments: None
4. Staff Reports: (Follow-up to 6/22/09 Minutes): and 6a. Committee Reports:
SF424 submitted to Christine Lombard of EPA for one-year Watrous grant extension. Dan Wolfram will follow up on it this week. Dan Wolfram received completed investigative draft report last week for review of Gong Bell site. Currently reviewing cost estimate for next phase of work at Watrous. (Map with boring locations and manpower estimates attached as Exhibit A). Couple things have been added to this report; #1) the disposal charge to get rid of any PCB soil within 30 days. While in process of contractor hauling off that, it was decided to take care of liquids inside that weren’t taken care of previously; and #2) a charge to do residential sampling of 3 domestic wells adjacent to Watrous site as a check
for PCB contamination. Concrete sampling of blue cores (on map) to check for PCB contaminates in concrete will have bearing on demolition costs if that route is taken. EPA requests some sampling of catch basin.
AECOM will be contacted relative to question of survey, and laboratory charges for possible revision of report. Chairman Scott Bristol and Dan Wolfram will review these figures with Town Manager O’Keefe to negotiate, finalize and authorize. Money for these charges will come out of assessment grant. Vice Chairman William DeMore requested motion to approve negotiations with AECOM to conduct investigation at this price or a lower figure. Ron Buccilli motioned to approve, seconded by Kay Willson. Vote unanimous. Dan Wolfram stated invoice was received from AECOM associated with field work done at Gong Bell site for approx. $8,600. (Monthy Project Status Report is Exhibit B.) (Schedule of AECOM billing rates provided to Dan
previously.) Vice Chairman DeMore questioned if #6, “Recommended Work Not Currently Authorized” was part of their request. Dan Wolfram stated there is a change order associated with having to sample the fill that was put down at the site that was probably associated with the bridge work. They needed to have chemical composition data in order to move forward with the site closure and did provide Mr. Wolfram with that change. (Change Order is Exhibit C.) Additionally, two change orders needed to be added. There was also additional analysis needed based on some of the results from this investigation, especially for metal analyzing. There is another analysis that simulates rain water extractions which could impact ground water. A change order is associated with that too. Ron Buccilli moved that we accept Invoice #7059676 from AECOM for payment. Dan Wolfram seconded the motion. Vote unanimous. Consultants provided Dan Wolfram with three quarterly reports
(Attachment D). He notes no changes in the Watrous cleanup from Tighe and Bond. Kay Willson moved that we forward the Quarterly Progress Reports, as submitted by our consultants, to Town Manager O’Keefe, with minor change noted, for submittal. Ron Buccilli seconded. Vote unanimous.
