$2.77/mile
4-2-3. SOIL SAMPLING (split spoon)
$15.63/sample. This includes decontamination, labor, materials, and equipment. This cost
is reimbursable only when samples are necessary more frequently than the 5' intervals
included in the per-foot drilling rate. Examples of when more frequent samples may be
necessary, such as when drilling the first boring and trying to locate the contamination
zone or the water level, or when there is a high fluctuation in groundwater level. No
additional consultant fees will be reimbursed. Unless OIS requires or pre-approves a soil
sampling method other than split spoon, the Fund will not reimburse additional costs for a
more expensive soil sampling method.
