Approach & Methodology l^ Tectonic will perform the following professional engineering services associated with submissions before the Planning Board: • Site visits as necessary • Review for compliance with Town Code • Review of site designs and drainage analyses • Review of water and sewer system designs • Environmental documentation review and SEAR support • Summary reports to the Board for their consideration • Meeting attendance by the designated Board professional • Monthly summaries and project tracking/review histories We believe it is in the interest of the Town that their professionals provide a thorough written review during the application review process. Together with the Board's procedures and the meeting record, these documents serve to further the interests of the Town. The variety of disciplines provided by Tectonic permits an encompassing review without the need to encumber delays and expenses related to retaining multiple professionals. We further find that a complete, written review by the Town professional allows the Applicant to address concerns with minimal iterative resubmissions. Tectonic realizes the importance of accurate and complete record keeping for Planning Board applications and development in the Town. It is our policy to maintain the following records and provide same to the Town: • A log of all Projects/Applications in the Town (Project Name, File Number, Location, Zoning District, Type Development, Status, etc.) • A Tracking Sheet Summary for all active applications (again, by Project Name and File Number, with listing of history and status of stages and intra approval decisions) • A set of tracking sheets for all Projects/Applications (to show the status, dates of particular approvals/decisions, and maps) `,,, We also find communication to be critical during the review process. We work closely with the Town staff during the review process to ensure the flow of information. Schedules, documents, updates, and reports are routinely discussed and exchanged in a timely fashion to keep parties informed. When information is unclear on submitted documents under review by our staff, we will request a verbal confirmation from the Applicant rather than stall the process or expend escrow review fees by attempting to resolve issues internally. Any matters that cannot be quickly clarified are noted as requiring a detailed response by the Applicant in a future submission. If desired by the Town, Tectonic has found that workshops can streamline the review process by providing a forum for dialog, informal guidance, and feedback at minimal up-front costs to the applicant and municipality. The Applicant can then use the workshop outcome to hire a professional to represent them during the formal application process. Practical Solutions, Exceptional Servke 3.

Practical Solutions, Exceptional Service L Project Name: Ryerson Road Culvert Replacement Location: Warwick, NY Client: Town of Warwick, NY On March 14, 2010, a severe storm destroyed an existing upstream levee and twin culvert that carried Double Kill (a tributary of Wawayanda Creek) beneath Ryerson Road approximately 1 mile north of New Jersey. FEMA declared the region eligible for disaster t relief funding and the project was performed under an expedited emergency repair framework. Tectonic immediately coordinated with the FEMA field staff to secure sufficient funding and opened dialog with the NYSDEC relative to permitting considerations of the Class B watercourse. Since Double Kill was a watercourse with Special Flood Hazard Area and floodway designations, a detailed hydraulic analysis of the 12'x5' aluminized corrugated steel box culvert was prepared to ensure adverse downstream impacts were avoided. The facility was designed to convey 1,200 cubic feet per second below a 15.5 square mile watershed in conjunction with an adjacent bridge during the 50-year frequency event. Services performed by Tectonic included topographic and hydraulic section surveys, geotechnical investigation for the culvert foundations, hydraulic modeling (HEC-RAS) of the existing channel and the proposed improvements to both demonstrate compliance with FEMA's NFIP requirements and size the culvert, permitting of the site (NYS OPRHP, US Army Corps jurisdiction and Nationwide permitting, NYSDEC Protection of Waters, USF&W), construction documents, public bid support, and construction support. Project Name: Elmira Federal Building Rehabilitation Location: Elmira, NY Client: City of Elmira, NY Tectonic provided professional architectural and engineering services ~ related to the rehabilitation of the Federal Building for the City of Elmira, NY.

The project, funded with a Restore NY grant, included replacing the roof, asbestos abatement, lead paint remediation, window restoration, repointing stonework, railing upgrades with historic considerations to make the building compliant with the Americans with Disabilities Act, upgrading the fire alarm system and some mechanical work. In an effort to keep construction costs related to the exterior masonry restoration to a minimum, Tectonic was also contracted to perform added construction supervision to field target areas of necessary repair to permit more of the available grant money to be utilized on the reminder of the project for site, interior and building system upgrades. e Practical Solutions, Exceptional Service L Project Name: Location: Client: At the other location, the box culvert was completely replaced with a new structure and failed retaining walls paralleling the road were replaced with new gabion retaining walls. Maintenance and protection of traffic plans were implemented to allow non-interrupted access to properties along the road. Tectonic also assisted with obtaining funding from FEMA, provided bid phase services, and performed construction inspection and materials testing services. Reinforced concrete box culverts (approximately 6' by 10' in area) at Southwyck Drive and Wawayanda Road sustained damage during the April 2005 rain event.

Project Name: Location: Client: Emergency Culvert Repairs Warwick, NY Town of Warwick, NY Orange County Fire Training Center Structural Investigation and Renovation Design New Hampton, NY Orange County DPW The existing Orange County Fire Training Center Building is a two-story building with an attic. The structural system is composed of concrete masonry unit (CMU) bearing walls and prestressed precast hollow core concrete planks. The precast planks form the floor system for the second and attic floors, while a slab on grade serves the ground floor. Resembling a single family house, it provides a training area for various crews to simulate firefighting in an environment similar to a typical suburban or rural residential structure. Typically, burns are conducted on the ground or second floors using wood pallets as fuel. This structure is used for live fire ii. training exercises using Class A fires since construction in 1991. Tectonic performed the annual structural inspection and report for the building in order to maintain compliance with NFPA 1403. In addition, we provided the coring and testing of the precast concrete slabs, slab on grade, and exterior masonry walls in order to determine the load carrying capacity of the structure. As a result of the inspection and materials testing, the capacity of the structural elements was downgraded in order to maintain compliance with the NFPA and New York State Building Code requirements. Subsequently, Tectonic provided design and recommendations to the Training Center for the necessary renovations in order to keep the structure on-line. Project Name: Location: Client: Culvert Inspections Orangetown, NY Town of Orangetown, NY Tectonic performed an inventory and inspection of all highway culverts owned by the Town of Orangetown.
