Notes to Drilling Services:
1. Minimum drill time is 4 hours. Drill crew overtime (hours in excess of 8 hours a
day) and Saturday work are 1.5 times the hourly rate. Sunday and holiday work
are two times the hourly rate.
2. Rates for 3-man crew available on request.
3. Assembly and demobilization of materials is charged at an hourly rate of
$50.00/hour.
4. Subcontractors are charged on a cost plus 15 percent basis.
5. Materials are charged on a cost plus 20 percent basis.
6. Drilling in material that causes more than normal wear to the equipment may be
subject to additional charges. The client will be notified prior to drilling in such
material.
Replacement/Repair Costs:
Brass or Fiber Liners $12.00
Shelby Tubes $15.00
Sampler Shoe $80.00
Drill Bit $100.00
7. Earth Systems Consultants'drillers and drill crews have been trained in the 40-hour
course developed by the EPA and will satisfy the Federal OSHA requirements (29-
CFR 1910-120) for personnel working on sites containing hazardous materials.
8. Drilling jobs must be confirmed a minimum of 48 hours prior to the start of work.
Jobs cancelled less than 48 hours prior to the start of work will be subject to the 4-
hour per day minimum charge plus any charges for material acquisition, rig
preparation,etc., that have been incurred.
9. Borings will be drilled at the direction of and in the locations specified by the client.
In view of this, the client is responsible for the accurate location of all subterranean
structures and utilities and agrees to waive any claim against Earth Systems
Consultants for damage done to subterranean structures and utilities not identified
or accurately located. The client will also obtain free access to the site for all
equipment and personnel necessary for Earth Systems Consultants to perform the
work.
