SUMMARY STATEMENT:

The City of Valdez has negotiated an Agreement for Professional Services with HDR Engineering, Inc. to provide updated survey services for the Balefill and Construction & Demolition (C&D) landfill. The survey will include updated topographic information for use in permitting and planning.

The Consultant’s project manager is Courtney Holston, and the City’s project manager is John Witte. The period of performance under this agreement is 365 days from the written Notice to Proceed. Compensation shall be in accordance with the Basis of Compensation (Appendix B) and shall not exceed $43,678.00.

The updated landfill survey data will be used to support the City’s 2026 Alaska Department of Environmental Conservation (DEC) landfill permit renewal and the development of the Landfill Master Plan. HDR Engineering, Inc. will be required to maintain insurance as specified in the contract, and all terms and conditions are outlined in the Agreement and attached appendices.

This contract (No. 2398) ensures that the City has accurate and current landfill survey data to support regulatory compliance, operational planning, and long-term solid waste management.
