I'll post aerial photo when I get to the office.
Should be in the 5-7K range but someone will propose to do it for $700.....

I am finishing one right now with similar specs. No underground utility locate and my fee was $7000.
What makes this proposal different is that a past client who I have a relationship with from a previous employer called and asked me to give him a cost, because one of the 'bigger' firms gave him a fee of 12,325.00
Seriously, I was gonna toss out a $12,000 figure. Woohoo, I get it by $325. Does that make me a lowballer?
A crew can spend many hours on a project like that to do the job correctly. Not having a solid existing survey adds quite a bit right off the bat.
I was gonna say about $8000...or $1 whichever, get me the job;-)
Seriously..its int the 8g range..
$12,000 looks tight to me. They really shouldn't have given you the cost from the other firm. Puts you in a kind of awkward position.
That Gas Station Looks Like It Has Recovery Wells
How many monitoring wells are on the ALTA site?
I would say an oil spill plume is an encroachment.

I’m curious; why should they have not told him the proposed price of the other guy? Unless this is a public bid (then we could argue the Professional Procurement Act) why would this information be kept secret?
I'm probably wrong but if someone ask's for a price (bid if you will) from surveyor A, then tells you what that price from surveyor A is and you give them an estimate slightly under it..... just sounds awkward to me. But I'm no lawyer.
This has come up for me a few months ago and I told the client I didn't want to know what the other person's estimate was. They just told me it sounded high. I bid the job and turned out I was a few hundred dollars higher and they gave me the job anyway because they had worked with me before and our offices are in the same town and the other guy was 200 miles away.
