Subject: Kalispell City Airport - Old Landfill Feasibility Assessment
We are investigating the options and feasibility for constructing building/parking lots on
the old [ltv landfill near the airport. We are working with Tensar Corporation, Geopier
Corporation and 5K GeotechnicaI to provide you with good information and average costs
associated with doing so.
We do not have all the information compiled yet, but are working on it. As soon has we get
more information from Tensar, 6eopier and SK we should be able to give you some information.
Thanks and please call if you have any questions.

Kalispell City Airport - Geopiers
David PIehn with Geopiers called. We discussed the project and a rough estimate of costs
would be about $40/merticaI foot for Geopiers (price does not include grade beams).
Assuming 25-foot deep piers, each pier would cost $1000 each.
With a I0-foot x 19-foot grid for piers, this would equal about $40/sf of building for just
the geopiers.
Now, if we can figure out rough costs for grade beams and parking lot/roadway improvements we
should be able to get an idea of what the increase in construction costs would be on this
site on a square foot of building/parking lot/roadway would be versus "good" ground.
We will keep working on it.
Thanks,
