Background Information:
The City of Miami (City), Miami -Dade County and the Florida Marlins, LP executed a Baseball Stadium
Agreement on March 3, 2008, outlining the general terms and conditions under which the parties would design,
develop, construct and operate a Major League Baseball Stadium, which assigns the garage construction as a City
responsibility. During the pre -construction phase of the Project it was determined that an HERA and SMPP were
required to identify and provide recommendations for any potential human health risks to construction workers from
potential exposure to soils compounds on the proposed lots and garages. The City Manager found that it was not
practicable or advantageous to utilize competitive sealed bidding procedures to procure these services given their
importance to ensuring health safety and in consideration of the Project schedule, and determined that it was in the
City's best interest to award the work to Bureau Veritas in order to maintain continuity of work and avoid undue
expenditures in the transfer of site -related historical and analytical information. Task 1 of HHRA, in the amount of
$11,940, and Task 1 of the SMPP, in the amount of $12,923, were thus authorized and performed.
