ATTN: RYAN
VIA: rlorenz@jreeng.com RE: ARBORWOOD DEAR RYAN,
THANK YOU FOR GIVING ME THE OPPORTUNITY TO QUOTE YOU PRICES TO VIDEO INSPECT LINES WITH THE UNDERWATER CAMERA (ROV) UNIT AND POLE CAMERA.
WE USE THE UNDERWATER CAMERA (ROV) ON LINES 15” AND LARGER. ON AVERAGE WE VIDEO 10-15 BASIN TO BASIN OR BASIN TO LAKE OUTFALL RUNS PER DAY.
THE POLE CAMERA IS A HD CAMERA ON A POLE THAT CAN BE LOWERED INTO A SMALLER OPENING. ITS ZOOM IS UTILIZED TO LOOK DOWN THE DRY PIPE. WE USUALLY GET A GOOD VIEW OF 40’ +/- OF THE PIPE. IF YOU CAN LOOK AT THE PIPE FROM BOTH ENDS YOU CAN GET A GOOD IDEA WHETHER THE PIPE IS DIRTY OR NOT. WE USE THIS CAMERA IN LIMITED ACCESS (REAR) AREAS. ITS USE CAN BE LIMITED BY PIPE CONFIGURATION. ON AVERAGE WE CAN INSERT AND VIEW FROM 25 +/- OPENINGS PER DAY.

OUR DAY RATE IS $3,900.00.

IT IS IMPORTANT TO NOTE THAT INSPECTING PIPES UNDERWATER HAS LIMITATIONS. ALTHOUGH THE ROV CAMERA IS DESIGNED FOR UNDERWATER USE, THE VIDEO IS ONLY AS GOOD AS THE CLARITY OF THE WATER. THE VIDEO AND INFORMATION GAINED IS LIMITED BY TURBIDITY AND DIMINISHES IN LARGER DIAMETER PIPES.

IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS PLEASE GIVE ME A CALL (560-8016).

SINCERELY,
Sean Kennedy
PRESIDENT
