Jackson 14 stage 13MQ112MQH5L9 back to operations as soon as possible, the following
emergency quote is authorized to precure Layne's services and expertise with the understanding
that the City desires to proceed with "Option #2" from the "Well #9 Emergency Pull" proposal
dated February 26, 2025, and which will be discussed at the City's Economic Development Board
Meeting on Tuesday, March 4, 2025:

$ 24,000
Remaining Quote balance of "Option #2" from the "Well #9 Emergency Pull" proposal dated
February 26, 2025, for discussion at the City's Economic Development Board Meeting on
Tuesday, March 4, 2025:
(Option 2) Work through Weekend (March 9 & March 2) and M-F — 8 Hour Workdays
Expected inspection beginning by Friday, March 7, 2025 $ 31,000*
*The above quote is for pulling and hauling components to Layne's yard and does not include
reinstallation, component inspections, quotes for new components, or quotes for rehab/rebuild.
Layne performs all work on a time and material basis per the attached Work Order form. Time
and a half is charged all day Saturdays and for anytime after 8 hours in a given day. Double time
is charged on Sundays and Holidays. Therefore, the above stated quote can be adjusted for per
the hours and days for the most efficient job possible, per the City's discretion.
Please note that the 400 HP Byron Jackson Type H mercury motor seal should be balanced, and
the motor dewatered in accordance with Layne's exclusive procedure. This will allow the motor
to be conditioned properly for shipping with the mercury seal secured and to minimize the potential
for water to enter the motor windings, which would result in damage to the motor.
Only Layne can provide a Byron Jackson factory authorized serviceman to complete this
procedure properly. As a result of the July 1, 2012 IEPA guidelines, we no longer conduct the
seal servicing or motor dewatering over the well. Our work will include complete adherence to all
