As such, we would like a moment to introduce our organization. CONSTRUCTION TECHNOLOGY is the construction materials inspection division of Product Development & Technical Services, Inc. Since our 1984 incorporation in New York State, we have been devoted to providing the highest standards of on time field inspection, testing and laboratory support to the construction industry. Our desire is a QC/QA involvement with projects committed to timely completion while satisfying the quality controls and assurances necessary to support today’s strict design criteria. All too often materials inspections are viewed as a necessary evil or a requirement to be overlooked. Many times the laboratory brings this attitude on itself because of less than fully qualified personnel, tardy response time or uncompromising attitudes of technicians. Given the opportunity, we are confident we can provide the services that reflect our strong desire to be an asset to the construction process. Our facility and field technical force is supported by state of the art test equipment, including nuclear soil/asphalt density test equipment, automatic soil moisture/density (Proctor) apparatus, temperature/humidity controlled curing environments for concrete specimens, and all other necessary equipment to satisfy the requirements of the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) standards C-1077 and E-329 as they relate to a commercial inspection agency. CONSTRUCTION TECHNOLOGY has submitted to outside auditing by having our personnel, equipment, facility and quality assurance plan evaluated by the Cement and Concrete Reference Laboratory (CCRL) of the National Standards Institute. A copy of the CCRL/NSI audit and finding is available upon request. December 13, 2023 ROZELL INDUSTRIES Re: SIX FLAGS BOBCAT COASTER FOUNDATION PROJECT: QUEENSBURY, NY Construction Materials Inspection and Testing Services Our staff ranges from consultant Professional Engineers, hydrologists and geologists to field technicians and materials inspectors with technical backgrounds of educational degrees and/or substantiated experience in a construction oriented discipline. Field inspectors also possess a combination of the following certifications: * Certification at various levels (AET-I through SET-IV) by the National Institute for Certification in the Engineering Technologies (NICET). * American Concrete Institute (ACI) Grade I Concrete Inspector. * American Concrete Institute (ACI) Certified Concrete Construction Special Inspector. * North East Transportation Training & Certification Program (NETTCP).

Certification Program for Sanitary Landfill Inspectors. * J&L Testing, Inc. Certification Program for Quality Control and Inspection of Geosynthetic Systems for Use in Solid and Hazardous Waste Disposal Facilities. In addition to particular qualifications, field inspectors are familiar with all phases of construction materials testing and inspection including soils, concrete, reinforcement, masonry, structural steel, fireproofing and roof installation. This generally alleviates the need and expense of employing more than one inspector on a particular project. CONSTRUCTION TECHNOLOGY currently has the capabilities to provide inspection and testing services relating to many construction concerns including but not limited to: subsurface drilling and investigation, soils placement and compaction, foundation design recommendations, portland cement concrete, unit masonry, mortars, grouts, bituminous concrete, structural steel and fireproofing, as well as all associated laboratory services. In general, all forms of materials testing and inspection services, as they relate to the construction industry, may be obtained through CONSTRUCTION TECHNOLOGY. We appreciate your interest in our firm and our line of work. We look forward to completing the construction materials inspection, testing and laboratory requirements for: ROZELL INDUSTRIES.
