services as required herein or persistently fails to carry out the
project in accordance with the contract documents, the KodiakIsland
Borough, by a written order signed personally or by an agent may order
the Engineer to stop work, or any portion thereof, until the cause for

Engineer defaults or neglects to carry out the work in accordance with
the contract documents and fails within fourteen (14) days after

issued deducting from the payments then or thereafter due the Engineer
the cost of correcting such deficiencies, including compensation for
the Project Manager's additional services made necessary by such
default, neglect or failure. If the payments then or thereafter due
the Engineer are not sufficient to cover such amount, the Engineer
shall pay the difference to the Kodiak Island Borough.
13. Time. (a) Definitions:
(1) Unless otherwise provided, the contract time
is the period of time allotted in this Agreement for
substantial completion of the project.
(2) The date of commencement of the project is
the date established in this Agreement as set forth
above.
(3) The date of substantial completion of the
project or designated portion thereof is the date
certified by the Project Manager when the project is
sufficiently complete, in accordance with the contract
documents, so the Kodiak Island Borough can utilize the
project or designated portion thereof for the use for
which it is intended.
(4) The date of final completion is the date that
the Kodiak Island Borough certifies either orally or in
writing that the project is finished.
(5) The term day as used in the contract
documents shall mean calendar day unless otherwise
specifically designated.
(b) All time limits set forth herein are of the
essence of this Agreement.
14. Payments withheld. (a) The Kodiak Island Borough may
withhold payments from the Engineer for any of the following reasons:
(1) The application for payment misstates the
amount of services completed:
(2) Defective services not remedied;
(3) Third party claims filed or reasonable
evidence indicating probable filing of such claims;
(4) Failure of the Engineer to make payments
properly to consultants and subcontractors or for
Professional services, materials or equipment;
(5) Reasonable evidence that the project cannot
be completed for the unpaid balance of the contract
sum;
(6) Reasonable evidence that the project will not

final certificate of payment to issue and make payment to the Engineer
within ten (10) days of the date that the project was certified as
finally complete on the conditions set forth below.

adjudged a bankrupt, or if he makes a general assignment for the
benefit of his creditors, or if a receiver is appointed on account of
his insolvency, or if he refuses or fails, except in cases for which
extension of time is provided, to supply enough properly skilled
professionals or proper services, or if he fails to make prompt
payment to subcontractors or for materials or labor, or persistently
disregards, laws, ordinances, rules, regulations or order of any
public authority having jurisdiction, or otherwise is guilty of a
violation of a provision of this Agreement, then the Kodiak Island
Borough may, without prejudice to any right or remedy and after giving
the Engineer seven days' written notice, terminate the employment of
the Engineer and take possession of all materials and documents
prepared by the Engineer in connection with the project, and may
finish the work by whatever method he may deem expedient. In such
case the Engineer shall not be entitled to receive any further payment
until the work is finished. (b) If the unpaid balance of the
contract sum exceeds the costs of finishing the project, including
compensation for the Project Engineer's additional services made
necessary thereby, such excess shall be paid to the Engineer. If such
costs exceed the unpaid balance, the Engineer shall pay the difference
to the Kodiak Island Borough. The amount to be paid to the Engineer
or to the Kodiak Island Borough, as the case may be, shall be
certified by the Project Manager, upon application, and this
obligation for payment shall survive the termination of the contract.
17. Assignment. This Agreement shall not be assigned by
operation of law or through negotiated agreement by the Engineer
without the written permission of Kodiak Island Borough. However,

Engineer to enforce a specific section of this Agreement against one
another or to enforce a particular demand of the Kodiak Island Borough
or the Engineer made pursuant to the terms of this Agreement shall not
effect a waiver of any of the Kodiak Island Borough's or the
Engineer's rights and powers as set forth in this Agreement.

been duly served if delivered in person to the individual or member of
the firm or entity or to an officer of the corporation for whom it was

Re: AHERA Management Plans
Gentlemen:
Arctic Slope Consulting Group, Inc. (ASCG) is pleased to submit a proposal for the AHERA
inspections and reinspection for the Kodiak Island Borough schools. We have evaluated the
RFP and its technical requirements and looked within our organization to determine if we have
the capacity to accomplish the project in a timely manner. If ASCG is selected for this project,
we will start scheduling immediately upon notice to proceed.
ASCG has performed numerous AHERA surveys and management plans for the Department of
Transportation and Public Facilities, the Department of Health and Human Services, and several
schools here in Alaska. ASCG's key person for this project will be Mr. Tom Tessier. Mr.
Tessier has performed AHERA inspections and prepared management plans for over twelve
school districts, which involve more than 100 schools, throughout the state of Alaska. Mr.
Tessier has not only performed AHERA work but is also certified by the Alaska Department of
Labor to teach asbestos removal classes as well as the EPA to teach the AHERA Inspector and
Management Planner course. In addition to Mr. Tessier, Mr. Bob Perkins, who is a registered
professional engineer, certified industrial hygienist and also an AHERA instructor, will be
utilized to review all survey and laboratory data and oversee the preparation of the final AHERA
documents. Other ASCG personnel that will be involved are Mr. Howard Novakowski, as an
inspector, and an AutoCAD draftsman. ASCG uses AutoCAD release 11 for all floor plans for
the delineation of homogeneous areas, sample locations, functional spaces, and hazardous areas,
if any. All of ASCG's personnel that will be assigned to this project are highly qualified and
experienced in their respective disciplines.
According to the AHERA regulations, one can assume that materials contain asbestos and not
actually sample the suspect material. This can make for an inexpensive and quick survey and
many take this inexpensive approach. However, ASCG does not agree with this philosophy and
does not assume any material to be asbestos -containing but rather take samples for analysis.
Sampling suspect materials is not a siginificant overall cost and it lets the building owner know
exactly where the asbestos -containing materials (ACM) are located so they will not be accidently
disturbed by custodial or maintenance personnel. Additionally, if any renovation work is
scheduled, the owner will already know the locations and extent of the ACM and can provide
the design accordingly. Otherwise, an AHERA certified inspector would be required to make
a special trip to perform sampling prior to the design or renovation work.
ASCG will utilize the laboratory services of Solar Environmental Services (SES) here in
Anchorage. SES is owned and operated by Mrs. Gracita Torrijos, who is an industrial hygienist
and also teaches chemistry at the University of Alaska Anchorage. SES is accredited through
the National Voluntary Laboratory Accreditation Program (NVLAP) #2006, which is an AHERA
requirement for laboratories involved in asbestos analysis in schools and is also a laboratory
participant with the American Industrial Hygienists Association #98518005.
ASCG takes great pride in seeing that all of our projects are performed with the professionalism
that our clients expect and deserve. We are looking forward to working with the Kodiak Island
Borough on this project, should we be selected.
Sincerely,
ARCTIC SLOPE CONSULTING GROUP, INC.
