Self Insured Retention (SIR - otherwise known as the deductible)
to cover all positions for a premium of $275,551. (Approved by
Administrative Services Committee February 23, 2015)
Background:Excess Workers Compensation coverage (a per occurrence policy)
has been purchased in the past as a measure to cap any potential
catastrophic loss against Augusta-Richmond County. Knowing
that this area of the industry is still quite volatile and premiums
continue to rise, Georgia Administrative Services (GAS), our

to obtain quotes from A or A+ companies. Georgia Administrative

CUSTOMER: Augusta Georgia
Introduction
Welcome to Motorola Solutions Customer Support. We appreciate your business and look
forward to serving your needs on your Public Service Applications system.
The Customer Support Plan is designed to provide Motorola Solutions customers the details
necessary for understanding Motorola Solutions overall support processes and policies as a
compliment to the Motorola Solutions Maintenance and Support Agreement.
The Motorola Solutions Maintenance and Support Agreement is the legal and binding
contractual terms for which services are provided under. Questions or concerns regarding your
support plan can be directed to your Support Manager.
Below are the topics outlined in this Customer Support Plan:
I. Service Offerings
II. Accessing Customer Support
III. Severity Levels and Case Management
IV. Responsibilities
V. Customer Call Flow
VI. Contacts
I. Service Offerings
Motorola Solutions Customer Support organization includes a staff of Support Analysts whom are
managed by Motorola Solutions Customer Support Managers and are chartered with the direct front-line
support of our customers. A Support Analyst is a system technologist responsible for providing direct or
escalation support. A Support Analyst is sometimes referred to as a Customer Support Analyst (“CSA”)
or Technical Support Analyst (“TSA”) or Technical Support Representative.
Motorola Solutions Support Organization offers a multi-layered approach to a total service solution.
Levels of support are defined as follows:
Service Levels
Level 0 Logging, dispatching and tracking service requests
Level 1 Selected 1st call support, triage and resolution
Level 2 Telephone and/or on-site support for normal technical requirements
Level 3 High-level technical support prior to Engineering escalation
Level 4 Engineering software code fixes and changes
Motorola Solutions, Inc. PSV M&SA Exhibit B 4 Version 2-23-12
Motorola Solutions provides to customers on an active maintenance and support agreement defined
services and Software Releases. Specific support definitions, offerings and customer responsibilities are
detailed in section 3 of the main body of the maintenance and support agreement.
II. Accessing Customer Support
The Motorola Solutions System Support Center Operations
Motorola Solutions Public Service Applications Technical Support personnel in cooperation with Motorola
Solutions System Support Center (“SSC”) provide the gateway to technical support for all of Motorola
Solutions Public Service Application systems. Accessing support through Motorola Solutions toll free 800
number, web ticketing or email ticketing ensures accurate case handling and tracking. The goal of the
Support team and SSC is to make certain systems are restored and running at peak levels as quickly as
possible. This is accomplished by obtaining accurate customer and problem details and by directing your
requests to the right support team in a timely manner.
The System Support Center offers total call management including:
Single point of contact for Motorola Solutions service requests
Logging, dispatching and tracking of service requests
System capabilities to identify pending cases and automatically escalate to management
Database and customer profile management
Standard reports with on-demand distribution
Case notification
Motorola Solutions System Support Center operates 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year.
That means you can call us anytime. Support Center personnel enter requests for service, technical
assistance, or telephone messages into a database system. Every time you call us, we log information
about your request into the tracking system so that the information is available for reference and analysis
to better serve your future service needs. Another benefit of logging every service request is that
Motorola Solutions and customers can track the progress from initial contact to final resolution.
There are three options for accessing Support at Motorola Solutions:
1. Motorola Solutions System Support Center Toll Free Number
2. eCase Management through Motorola Solutions On-Line
3. Email Case Ticketing
Option 1 - Call Motorola Solutions System Support Center
Call Motorola Solutions Toll free 800-323-9949

1. CAD
2. RMS
3. Mobile Applications
4. Jail Management Systems
5. Law Records (LRMS)
6. Customer Service Request System (CSR)
0. All Other Applications
Upon contact with the SSC personnel, you will provide the name and phone number for Customer contact
and your agency and product specific Site Identification number. Providing a brief problem description
will assist in defining the severity level and determine proper case routing to the appropriate Motorola
Motorola Solutions, Inc. PSV M&SA Exhibit B 5 Version 2-23-12
Solutions technical support team member. A unique tracking number will be provided to your agency for
future reference.
Generally customers calling the toll-free 800 number will access Public Service Applications technical
support directly. For heavy call times or after hours the caller will be directed to Motorola Solutions
System Support Call Center Operations. Once the logging process is complete customers are transferred
directly to a Technical Support Analyst during Technical Support Operation Hours (6:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m.
Mountain Time, Monday to Friday). After support operation hours (6:00 p.m. to 6:00 a.m. Mountain Time,
Weekends and Motorola Solutions Holidays) customers will be contacted within the contractually
specified period of time by a Technical Support Analyst.

III. Severity Levels and Case Management
Motorola Solutions services and response times are based on the severity levels of the error a customer
is experiencing as defined below. This method of response allows Motorola Solutions to prioritize its
resources for availability on our customer’s more severe service needs. Severity level response time
defines the actions that will be taken by Motorola Solutions Support team. Due to the urgency involved
in some service cases, Motorola Solutions will make every reasonable effort to provide a temporary or
work around solution. When a permanent solution is developed and certified through testing, it will be
incorporated in to the applicable Supplemental and or Standard Release.

Solutions technical support representative, to include notification to Motorola Solutions management

morning.
3.1 Reporting a Problem. Customer will assign an initial Severity Level for each error reported,
either verbally or in writing, based upon the definitions listed above. Because of the urgency involved,
Severity Level 1 or 2 problems must be reported verbally to the Motorola Solutions call incoming center.
Motorola Solutions will notify the Customer if Motorola Solutions makes any changes in Severity Level (up
or down) of any Customer-reported problem.
3.2 Motorola Solutions will use best efforts to provide Customer with a resolution for Severity 1 and
Severity 2 issues within a reasonable time and in accordance with the assigned Severity Level when
Customer allows timely access to the System and Motorola Solutions diagnostics indicate that a Residual
Error is present in the Software. Should Customer report an error that Motorola Solutions cannot
reproduce, Motorola Solutions may enable a detail error capture/logging process to monitor the System.
If Motorola Solutions is unable to correct the reported Residual Error within a reasonable time, Motorola
Solutions will escalate its procedure and assign such personnel or designee to correct such Residual
Error promptly. Should Motorola Solutions, in its sole discretion, determine that such Residual Error is not
present in its Release, Motorola Solutions will verify: (a) the Software operates in conformity to the
Motorola Solutions, Inc. PSV M&SA Exhibit B 16 Version 2-23-12
System Specifications, (b) the Software is being used in a manner for which it was intended or designed,
and (c) the Software is used only with approved hardware or software.

PremierOne CSR Annual Maintenance
Department:Information Technology
Caption:Motion to approve payment of Annual Maintenance for
PremierOne CSR Software used by 311. (Approved by Public
Safety Committee February 23, 2015)
Background:Augusta entered into a contract with Motorola in 2012 to
use Motorola's PremierOne CSR Software as the customer service
interface for the 311 Department. 311 serves as Augusta's first
line of customer service to the citizens, and the PremierOne CSR
is the software that they use to track calls.
Analysis:PremierOne CSR is used to 1) enter call information, 2) categorize
work, 3) assign work to the department that needs to address the
concern, and 4) enter call resolution information. The software
includes reporting and analysis tools that can help track particular
problem areas, as well as ensure that 311 can communicate with
citizens that call in with problems. The Annual Maintenance
payment entitles Augusta to receive help desk support and updates
to the software in order to keep it current with newer operating
systems and databases. The attached document serves as our
invoice and description of services through Motorola.
Financial Impact:The payment of the annual maintenance will cost $44,238 from
IT's 2015 operating budget. This item was included in the budget
for 2015.
Alternatives:N/A
Recommendation:Approve payment of Annual Maintenance for PremierOne CSR

Department:Environmental Services
Caption:Motion to approve award of Bid Item 14-235, Chain Link Fences
& Gates, to Precision Fenceworks, LLC. (Approved by
Engineering Services Committee February 23, 2015)
Background:The Environmental Services Department is responsible for the
maintenance of several closed landfills. The Mack Lane Landfill
was closed in the late 1980’s, and cell A of the Deans Bridge
Road landfill stopped taking waste in the early 1990’s. As part of
the maintenance plan, access is to be limited. Access is currently
controlled by fence and gates. The current fencing installed many
years ago was wooden posts with a 4 foot wire mesh. Due to
various reasons, the fence has deteriorated to the point it needs to
be replaced. There are sections missing, cut, burned, etc.
Analysis:As we replace this fence we will be doing it with a type of fence
better suited for security purposes. It will be replaced by a 6 foot
metal chain link type fence. This will reduce the impact to fire.
Additionally, having the taller fences will add additional security
as it is harder to get over. Finally, we will be adding additional
gates and access to areas which have been difficult to service
previously. In addition to these benefits, we have added some
sections of fence to better support Animal Services. We have
coordinated with Animal Services to add in a couple new sections
of fence to allow a pasture area(s) where larger animals could
graze. Further, we are assisting them by altering their gate
configuration to better allow for two way traffic flow.
Financial Impact:Monies would need to be moved from 541-04-4210/5422510 to
541-04-4210/5414910 in the amount of $111,120.00 which is the
bid price plus 15% contingency.
Alternatives:1. Approve award recommendation of Bid Item 14-235, Chain

approve the award.

Sanitary Sewer Connection Program
Department:Utilities
Caption:Motion to approve Sanitary Sewer Connection Program as
recommended with a connection fee of $10.00 and on a volunteer
basis. (Approved by Engineering Services Committee
February 23, 2015)
Background:The Sanitary Sewer Connection Program was initially proposed as
a voluntary connection assistance program, whereby Augusta
Utilities would contract with plumbers to connect customers to the
sanitary sewer system. Customers would partially reimburse the
connection cost via a $50 per month surcharge for two years, for a
total reimbursement of $1200. At that time, we estimated that the
average cost to re-plumb a residence would be $2,000. There was
interest in developing a more comprehensive sewer connection
program and making it mandatory for customers within 100 feet
of an available sewer. Consequently, a subcommittee was formed
by Engineering Services Chairman Bill Fennoy to recommend a
program to the Engineering Services Committee and
Commission. The subcommittee is comprised of:
Commissioner Bill Fennoy, Chairman Commissioner
Hap Harris Commissioner Sammie Sias The
subcommittee met on December 22, 2014. Major areas of interest
were customer affordability and reducing the cost of connecting
via packaging blocks of work and competitive bidding. The
subcommittee met again on January 30, 2015 and approved the
program described below.
Analysis:We estimate that we will realize approximately 3500 new sewer
customers through this program. Based on discussions with local
plumbers, we now estimate the average connection cost will range
from $1,000 to $1,500. The subcommittee recommends the
following : • Augusta Utilities will pre-qualify a pool of 4
plumbing contractors which will compete for blocks of work.
Work will be packaged such that the lowest possible cost to
Augusta is achieved. Criteria by which plumbing companies are
pre-qualified will include available resources, ability to complete
the work in a timely fashion and familiarity with Augusta Utilities
standards and procedures. • Utilities would budget $1,000,000 per
year ($750,000 for 2015) to accomplish this work. This would
provide for approximately 650 new connections per year, with the
entire program being completed in approximately 5 years. • Areas
would be prioritized first by health and environmental criteria and
then by length of time sewer has been available. • Augusta
Utilities, in conjunction with the contractors, would document
existing conditions at each property to ensure that each is properly
restored. This will also protect the contractor and Augusta from
fraudulent claims. • Customers (or property owners) will pay $504
toward the cost of connection. Each customer would also pay
normal sewer charges. • An assessment of each area will be made
to determine whether a customer is an owner or a tenant.
Customers who own their property could pay the $504 as a
supplement to the sewer bill over a 36 month period (additional
$14 per month). Owners of rental property would be allowed 90
days to make their payment. • The Utilities Director or his
designee(s) will assess cases of extreme financial hardship and
have the latitude to adjust payment schedules.
Financial Impact:Assuming an average sewer bill of $40 per month, we will realize
approximately $2000 in new revenue over a 3 year period for each
customer connected under this program. This represents a
favorable return on our investment while protecting our water
resources and improving quality of life in the impacted areas.

Scrap Tire Collection Amnesty Days and Pilot Project
Department:Environmental Services
Caption:Motion to approve Scrap Tire Collection Amnesty Days and
Scrap Tire Pilot Project with an allowance of ten tires. (Approved
by Engineering Services Committee February 23, 2015)
Background:Illegal dumping of scrap tires has long been an issue in Augusta.
Under the former Solid Waste collections contracts, the collection
of tires at each residence was a service provided by the various
contractors. This was a very inefficient and time-consuming
service. When the current solid waste and recyclables collection
contract was prepared for bid, tire collection was not included. It
would have raised the cost of the contract and therefore raised the
cost of service to the citizen. Instead ESD decided to implement
monthly scrap tire collection events where tires can be turned in
free of charge, as long as the customer is Richmond County
resident and has less that five tires per trip. These events have
been successful, with an average of 7.6 tons of tires collected in
2014 and sent for recycling each month.
Analysis:Although the scrap tire colletion events have been successful,
there are still a good number of tires being illegally dumped or set
out at the road for collection. As a result, ESD is proposing a two-
prong approach. Tire amnesty days, and a pilot program where
residents are compensated for each tire they bring for recycling.
The amnesty days would be held on Saturday March 14 and
Saturday March 21, 2015 at the Augusta landfill and also at a
second designated location(s). With proof of Richmond County
residency, the customer may bring as many tires as they can carry,
and do so free of charge. Tire companies, processors, and retailers
would be excluded from this event. The tire compensation pilot
program would run for one calendar quarter, and would provide
the following: Richmond County residents may drop off up to five
tires per event (there would be 3 events, one per month), and that
resident would receive compensation in the amount of $2.00 per
full tire. No tire companies, processors, or retailers would be able
to dispose of tires at the events. Further, any tires collected will be
recycled and not sold to used tire shops. In order to implement the
pilot program described above, ESD would have to increase the
event advertising, possibly add additional staffing per event, and
make additional locations available. The landfill would be a good
alternate location for tire drop-off since it is already open, staffed,
and has a tire collection location available.
Financial Impact:The overall financial impact is not known at this time. By offering
the two days of tire amnesty, hopefully will significantly reduce
the amount of money paid out in the tire compensation pilot
program.
Alternatives:1. Approve scrap tire amnesty days and the pilot program 2. Do
not approve
Recommendation:Approve scrap tire amnesty days and the pilot program

INTRODUCTION
Background
The Augusta Water Utilities (Augusta) and Systems & Software, Inc. (S&S) have agreed to engage
in the implementation of the enQuesta Storm Drainage Management Module.
From this point forward, Augusta Water Utilities shall be referred to as ‘the Customer’ and Systems
& Software shall be referred to as ‘S&S’.
Objectives
• Implement the standard, most current version of the enQuesta Storm Drainage
Management Module.
• Migrate all appropriate data currently billed in Water (application 3) to Storm Drainage
Management (application 8).
• Install S&S’ enQuesta Storm Drainage Management module at the Customer so that the
Customer may bill and collect separate Storm Drainage Management fees using the existing
utility bill, or via a separate Storm Drainage bill if required.
• Provide for a data conversion, into enQuesta, that identifies incoming “new” premises and
will create the properties within enQuesta so that new “Storm” accounts may be setup to
appropriately bill for Storm Drainage Management. This data conversion will additionally
create the new Storm Account as well as a Storm Item record.
• Provide integration with the GIS system to be the system of record for the Premise address.
GIS will be the owner of the premise address and the interface will be required to populate
the required premise record information to be mapped accordingly. The impervious square
feet if used to calculate the bill must be provided to populate enQuesta. .
• Train the user’s group at the Customer in the running of the new enQuesta Storm Drainage
Management Application
• Strive to reduce project risk by leveraging S&S resources’ existing knowledge of the
Customer’s environment to minimize the overall Customer resource time commitment
typically required for a successful implementation.
• Strive to establish project team continuity by maintaining a consistent core group of
Customer and S&S members.
• Utilize S&S’ implementation methodology to meet project expectations by clearly defining
roles and responsibilities and enabling open, consistent project communication.
• Benefit from pre-existing integration with other S&S enQuesta modules including
Cashiering, Collections, Reporting, WebConnect, Service Orders, Letter Generation,
Customer Service & Call Tracking and General Ledger interface.

High Level Project Activities
The following describes the high level project activities, services and scope of the Customer
enQuesta Storm Drainage Management implementation.
A. Project Management – S&S’ project management methodology incorporates a structured
project implementation process that defines the required steps to successfully and
efficiently implement the enQuesta Storm Drainage Management Module. S&S’ project
management methodology ensures that a standard progression of research, information
exchange, and actions for the joint Customer and S&S team is executed over the course of
the project. Together, the Customer’s and S&S’ Project Team represent the project
implementation team. S&S’ Project Manager and the Customer’s Project Manager will work
closely to ensure that project dates and activities are reasonable, that the necessary
resources from each side are scheduled and that internal communication, within the
respective organizations, is clear.
For S&S tasks, the S&S Project Manager is responsible for the overall execution of the
formal Project Plan and for adhering to the Communication Plan. The Communication Plan
details the frequency of joint Project Team meetings and status reports as well as specifies
the Change Management and Issue Resolution processes. The Project Plan and
Communication Plan will serve as the roadmaps that outline the required steps to
successfully and efficiently implement the enQuesta Storm Drainage Management Module
and communicate effectively throughout the project.
For the Customer’s Storm Drainage Management Module implementation, S&S anticipates a
project duration of 7 months (following Contract Signing, the time of Project Initiation, to
production enQuesta use) with a Project Manager allocated at 25% effort for the duration of
the project.
B. Data Conversion – The data conversion process consists of a set of activities grouped into
three primary segments:
• Data Conversion Assessment – Inventory & Analysis
• Data Conversion Mapping Design, Conversion Planning and Unit Testing
• Data Conversion System Testing, Production Execution and Validation
Augusta Water Utilities – enQuesta Storm Drainage Management Statement of Work
Page 6 of 18 10/21/2014
Proprietary and Confidential to Systems & Software, Inc.
The Assessment segment entails identifying new and modified tables and data attributes
between the Customer’s enQuesta billing environment and enQuesta Storm Drainage
Management billing environment. Data mapping and verification, as well as the preparation
and testing of conversion routines are accomplished during the Design and Conversion
Planning segment. During the Testing and Execution phase, data is moved from the
enQuesta production environment to the enQuesta Training environment. The conversion
process is executed in two parts: Pre Go-Live and Go-Live. Pre Go-Live activities provide
for an environment that enables Testing, including Parallel Billing, and Training. Go-Live
activities involve performing the final data conversions required to port data from enQuesta
Billing module to Storm Drainage Management module.
S&S will migrate existing enQuesta data in an as is state. No plan or effort has been
scoped or included for special requests to parse, transform or provide Customer specific
data conversion services. No plan or effort has been scoped or included to physically
archive any current enQuesta data.
S&S has included three Pre Go-Live Conversions. The Pre Go-Live Conversions include the
initial conversion to load to enQuesta Test/Train, one refresh, and one conversion to
support Simulation. One Go-Live conversion is included.
Current attributes from existing water customers will be converted from Water Billing
(Application 3) to Storm Drainage (Application 8).
C. Conversion Tables – The following tables will be converted from the Customer’s existing
water accounts, as-is to create the necessary Storm Drainage Management components.
Systems & Software’s standard conversion would convert the following tables:
Table to be Converted Primary Owner Notes
Application Premise
(Service) Record Systems & Software
Customer Master
Record Systems & Software
Flat Rate Item Billing
Record Systems & Software
Impervious Area Customer If impervious area is to be used as a rate
determinant, a source for that data will be required.
Billing Customer Systems & Software The billing customer for drainage will be the same
entity that is receiving the water bill.
Premise Address Systems & Software
D. Product Configuration – The following tables will require configuration for the enQuesta
Storm Drainage Management Module.
S&S will load the standard product configuration tables for the functional areas and
items below.
The Customer will be responsible for any customization (via a form accessed from
enQuesta) of the product configuration tables beyond S&S enQuesta Standard
product configuration.

Service Orders
Security The Customer
E. Implementation & Testing – The Implementation and Testing activities involve analyzing,
implementing and verifying the appropriate enQuesta system configuration in a Training /
Test environment preceding the deployment to Production. The activities encompass those
new or modified enQuesta business procedures specific to the Storm Drainage Module and
as defined in this SOW.
During this phase, enQuesta Storm Drainage Management Module will be installed into a
Training / Testing environment on the Customer’s server. This environment will serve as
the environment in which Application Testing, Data Conversion, Testing and end-user
Training are to be conducted. The Customer maintains primary responsibility for testing
enQuesta Storm Drainage Management functionality once deployed to the Train / Test
environment. Test plans are to be fully executed prior to Simulation.
Implementation and testing includes up to 2 people on-site for one week for Business
Process Review effort.
F. Training & Documentation – A successful implementation cannot be achieved without the
Customer’s experienced enQuesta users being trained on the capabilities of enQuesta Storm
Drainage Management Module. S&S has planned for a budgeted one (1) week total
Training effort for the enQuesta Storm Drainage Management implementation. This effort
includes training plan development and course scheduling, training material development,
and training delivery activities. The planning and development activities will take place
remotely.
Training Plan and Scheduling: S&S will develop a Training Plan. The purpose of the Training
Plan is to detail the manner that educational services will be delivered by S&S to the
Customer, including a summary of the training program, schedule, and S&S deliverables,
classroom setup requirements, and participant attendance expectations. Training will be
delivered in an instructor delivered training setting, with hands-on exercises.
Documentation: S&S will deliver, in electronic PDF form, enQuesta Storm Drainage
Management training materials.
Training Delivery: S&S’ training program includes one (1) process oriented class. The
process oriented class will be delivered in one day session and shall not exceed 15
Augusta Water Utilities – enQuesta Storm Drainage Management Statement of Work
Page 8 of 18 10/21/2014
Proprietary and Confidential to Systems & Software, Inc.
participants. Participants must be existing users of the enQuesta application, and must have
a working knowledge of enQuesta’s Billing and Work Order processes.
G. Simulation – To reduce project risk, validate customer readiness and ensure that the actual
Go-Live weekend is as seamless as possible a Simulation will take place prior to the Go-Live
weekend. This event will simulate the actual Go-Live by providing a dry-run of the Go-Live
activities. The Customer will then lead, project manage and execute key process testing to
validate customer readiness and ensure proper system configuration. The Customer is
responsible for testing all business processes, including interfaces, during Simulation. S&S
will participate by aiding in the Project Management and responding to and resolving issues.
S&S will support the Simulation activity remotely from Vermont. Please see Attachment C –
Sample Simulation for a typical Simulation plan.
H. Go-Live and Go-Live Support – S&S strives to make the actual cutover, or Go-Live a non-
event. Strong project planning and execution should lead to a smooth, productive cutover
with minimal disruption. S&S and the Customer will jointly develop and execute the
cutover plan which will include the final data conversion, and the turning on of the
configured enQuesta Storm Drainage Management module in the production environment.
S&S staff will be on-site over the Go-Live weekend, as well as during the initial business
days after cutover to aid in any issue resolution and to offer mentoring and assistance. This
effort includes 3-4 S&S staff on-site for 2 weeks.
Upon completion of the cutover, when the customer is live on enQuesta Storm Drainage
Module, S&S will provide production-critical, support services from S&S’ facility in Vermont.
The objective is to achieve Systems Acceptance (described below). Outstanding issues and
remaining project deliverables are documented and prioritized. Periodic status reviews, via
phone or video conference, are held between the Customer and S&S project teams to
address outstanding project items.
I. System Acceptance - System Acceptance shall refer to the date on which a module or group
of interrelated modules of the software licensed herein is operating in a production
environment without Level 1 issues as defined below. If Customer fails to notify S&S of
such Level 1 issue within 30 days of Go Live of the module or group of interrelated
modules, System Acceptance shall be deemed to have occurred.
o Level 1 (Showstopper): This is a severe problem that prohibits critical
processing from continuing and there is no reasonable work around. As an
example, bills will not print.
o Level 2 (High): There is a serious problem with the system but there is a work
around available that can be used on a temporary basis. As an example, work
order closing has an error but a temporary work around has been defined
where a CSR will manually look at each record after the closing.
o Level 3 (Medium): There is a problem with the system but a viable long-term
work around exists and no significant productivity impact to the customer
exists.
o Level 4 (Low): There is a cosmetic problem that does not impact operations in
any way. As an example, there is a misspelling on a report or form.

ASSUMPTIONS
Scope
• The Storm Drainage Management Module will be installed by activating Application 8 in
enQuesta™ version v4.1
• The Storm Drainage Management Module will be implemented on the v4.1 enQuesta
environment.
• The Customer will use the standard enQuesta Storm Drainage module without modifications
to the software.
• The Customer will support this implementation using existing enQuesta production reports
or create their own ad-hoc reports.
• Attributes such as Impervious Square Footage and Acreage will be utilized as part of the
calculation in the Storm Billing process.
• The following information is necessary to convert, configure and provide interface design
details that will ultimately become the AUD enQuesta Storm Drainage Management Module.
enQuesta Storm Drainage Data Mapping
There will be a 2 day onsite data mapping trip to document the fields used to create application 8
and populate the GIS interface discussed below.
This trip will include GIS, Augusta Water, and S&S resources.
A joint document will be finalized from this on-site prior to the first conversion.

Premise Address Table:
The Assumption is that nothing will need to be added as a differentiator to this table. It’s
not application specific, and the attributes shouldn’t need to change from the current
format.
Possible exception: Drainage only accounts that don’t have an existing premise in the
enQuesta environment today.

Stormwater Utility Fee Billing System Implementation
Department:Abie L. Ladson, Director
Caption:Motion to approve and authorize the Engineering Department
(AED) to supplement Systems & Software, Inc. (S&S) existing
contract with Augusta Utilities Department (AUD) in the amount
of $339,500 for implementation of the enQuesta Storm Drainage
Module as part of creating the Stormwater Utility Fee Billing
System. Funding is available through Project SPLOST PHASE VI
as requested by AED. (Approved by Engineering Services
Committee February 23, 2015)
Background:The Stormwater Utility Fee Implementation Project is a project
that is approved and funded through SPLOST VI. On October 15,
2013 Augusta Commission approved the necessary steps to
implement the Stormwater Utility Program for the City of
Augusta (consolidated government). AMEC, Inc. is developing
the program documents and rate structure; which is nearing
completion. The next needed step is the creation of a utility fee
billing system. AED with the consultation of AMEC, evaluated
various stormwater fee billing systems and it was determined that
the most practical option is utilizing AUD’s existing fee billing

a) Such easement hereby granted is limited to the use for highway purposes of space
required for approaches to said bridge(s) and for columns, foundations and other parts of
the bridge(s) and is limited vertically by a horizontal surface 20 feet above the roadway
surface of said bridge and approaches, together with the use of additional space for
aforesaid purpose and for access to the highway facilities for maintenance purposes, it
being understood that the easement shall not restrict the RAILROAD from utilizing the
air space under said bridge(s) for railroad operations and for wire lines or other facilities
which will not encroach on the reasonable requirements for maintaining the highway
facilities. All other rights are reserved unto the RAILROAD.
b) The CITY in its maintenance of the highway facilities, agrees to obtain permission from
the RAILROAD before undertaking any work which may interfere with or be a real or
potential hazard to the passage of trains or other railroad operations. In case of an
emergency, the CITY will notify the RAILROAD prior to undertaking emergency work.
The CITY will work with the RAILROAD to avoid interference with railroad operations
or potential hazard environment.

use of air space over the easement and prior to starting the construction of any fixed
installation, other than its customary signal and communication facilities, within 8 feet of
the underside of said bridge(s) or within 15 feet of said easement, it being understood that
such use will afford reasonable protection and safety to the highway facilities and
highway traffic and will not unreasonably interfere with lighting, ventilation and
maintenance of the highway facilities by the DEPARTMENT and the CITY. The

its standard schedule of wages and working hours and working in accordance with the
terms of its agreements with such employees, will do and perform the work as described in
the detailed estimate dated 12/30/2014 for $79,481.00, prepared in accord with aforesaid
CFR, said estimate being attached hereto and made a part of this agreement. Any work to
be done and performed by the RAILROAD not to be done and performed by the regular
organized forces of the RAILROAD working under current agreements with its employees,
shall be subject to the labor regulations applicable to construction contracts for grade
separation projects. The amount of the detailed cost estimate(s) attached hereto will be
allotted from available funds and written notice given to RAILROAD by DEPARTMENT

6) The DEPARTMENT shall pay monthly bills promptly upon receipt and verification thereof
by the DEPARTMENT. Upon completion of the work the RAILROAD shall submit one
final bill to the DEPARTMENT and the DEPARTMENT shall make a conditional final
payment promptly upon verification of the final bill by the DEPARTMENT. The total
liability of the DEPARTMENT shall not exceed the reimbursable cost of the work as
ascertained by computing the items of cost as set forth in the aforesaid CFR. At any time
within three years after the date of the conditional final payment the DEPARTMENT may
audit the cost records and accounts of the RAILROAD pertaining to this project and will
bill the RAILROAD any amount of any unallowable expenditure made in the conditional
final payment of this contract or, if no unallowable expenditure is found, notify the
RAILROAD of that fact in writing. If the RAILROAD does not pay any such bill within
thirty days of receipt of the bill from the DEPARTMENT, the DEPARTMENT may set-off

payments provided for herein an amount equal to that amount which has been identified by
either a State or Federal audit as an unallowable expenditure in any agreement between the
RAILROAD and the DEPARTMENT on which a conditional final payment has been
made.
8) The DEPARTMENT shall not be bound to pay any amount in excess of the reimbursable
portion of the detailed cost estimate attached hereto, nor for any items of work not provided
for in the detailed cost estimate. In the event it is determined that a change in the work to
be performed by the RAILROAD will be required or that an increase in cost anticipated
will be incurred by the RAILROAD, a written change or extra work order approved by the
DEPARTMENT shall be required.
9) The DEPARTMENT shall not be liable for payment of any bill received more than twelve
(12) months after all work under this Agreement is completed unless the RAILROAD and
DEPARTMENT have agreed in advance to an extension of the billing period in
writing. Unless an extension of the billing period has been agreed to the DEPARTMENT
may consider payment made up to one year following completion of the work to be final.
10) The RAILROAD shall provide preliminary and construction engineering including
inspection services as identified and included in the attached estimate. The anticipated
scope of services to be provided in connection with construction engineering by consulting
engineering firms for the RAILROAD is attached hereto and made a part hereof. Prior to

containing, but not limited to, a statement of the scope of consultant services, a list of wage
rates and classifications to be used by the consultant and an itemized statement of costs
estimated to complete the services. Selection and employment of the consultant shall be
governed by requirements and procedures contained in Part 646, Subpart B, of CFR.
11) The DEPARTMENT will require its Contractor to abide by the attached Special Provision
for Protection of Railway Interests which will be included in his contract and, before
commencing said construction on RAILROAD right-of-way or property, to furnish

13-10-1 (b) (2) (A) of the Official Code of Georgia Annotated and that such bond will
cover the work to be done and for the use and protection of all subcontractors and all
persons supplying labor, materials, machinery, and equipment in the prosecution of the
work provided for in the contract. The DEPARTMENT will furnish the RAILROAD a
photocopy of the bond secured for the project. The DEPARTMENT will also furnish the
RAILROAD with the address of all contractors and sureties that may be a party to the
bond and will notify the RAILROAD of any subsequent address changes.
13) It shall be the RAILROAD’S responsibility to plan with the Contractor a schedule of
operations which will clearly set forth at which stage of the contractor’s operations the
RAILROAD will be required to perform its work.
14) In the event it shall be necessary in connection with or incident to the work of said

PI No.: 245325-
The propose of this project is to widen and reconstruct Windsor Spring Road, in the City
of Hephzibah, Richmond County, Georgia. The work will require construction activities
within the right of way of Central of Georgia Railroad Company to reconstruct the bridge
at Railroad Milepost GF-236.70 and Railroad Crossing ID Number 734145P. The
average train movement through this area is approximately one train each way per day at
typical speeds of 10 mph. There are no passenger trains at this location.
1. AUTHORITY OF RAILROAD ENGINEER AND HIGHWAY ENGINEER:
The authorized representative of the Railroad, hereinafter referred to as Railroad
Engineer, shall have final authority in all matters affecting the safe maintenance of
Railroad traffic and facilities including the adequacy of the foundations and structures
supporting the railroad tracks and the necessity for flagging during construction.
The authorized representative of the Chief Engineer, hereinafter referred to as the
Highway Engineer, shall have authority over all other matters as prescribed herein
and in the Department’s Standard Specifications, current edition, as may be revised
for this project.
2. NOTICE OF STARTING WORK:
A. The Contractor shall not commence any work on Railroad rights-of-way until it
has complied with the following conditions:
(1) Given the Railroad written notice, with copy to the Department, at the
addresses shown below and to the Highway Engineer who has been
designated to be in charge of the work, at least 10 working days in advance of
the date he proposes to begin work on Railroad rights-of-way. If flagging is
required, it may take up to 30 days to obtain flagging from the Railroad and
no work shall be undertaken until flagging is present at the job site.

(2) Obtained written authorization from the Railroad to begin work on Railroad
right-of-way. Such authorization may include an outline of specific and
general conditions with which he must comply.
(3) Obtained written authorization from the Railroad Protective Liability
Insurance coverage as required by paragraph 12 herein. It should be noted that
Railroad Company does not accept notation of Railroad Protective Insurance
on a Certificate of Liability Insurance or for Binders as Railroad Company
must have the full original countersigned policy. Further, please note that
mere receipt of the policy is not the only issue, but review for compliance.
Due to the number of projects system wide, it typically takes a minimum of 45
days for Railroad Company to review.
(4) Furnished a schedule for all work within the Railroad rights-of-way as
required by paragraph 7 B (1) herein.
B. The Railroad’s written authorization to proceed with the work shall include the
names, addresses, and telephone numbers of the Railroad’s representatives who
are to be notified as hereinafter required. Where more than one representative is
designated, area of responsibility of each representative shall be specified.
3. INTERFERENCE WITH RAILROAD OPERATIONS AND PROPERTY:
A. The Contractor shall so arrange and conduct its work to avoid interference with
Railroad operations, including train, signal, and communication services, or
damage to the facilities or property of the Railroad or tenants on the right-of-way
of the Railroad. Whenever work is liable to affect such operations, safety,
facilities, or property, the method of doing such work shall first be submitted to
the Railroad Engineer for review and approval, but such approval shall not relieve
the Contractor from liability. Any work to be performed by the Contractor which
requires flagging and inspection by the Railroad shall be deferred by the
Contractor until the flagging and inspection required by the Railroad is available
at the job site.
B. Whenever work within Railroad rights-of-way is of such a nature that impediment
to Railroad operations such as use of runaround or detour tracks or necessity for
reduced speed is unavoidable, the Contractor shall schedule and conduct its
operations so that such impediment is reduced to the absolute minimum.
C. Should conditions arising from, or in connection with the work, require that
immediate and unusual provisions be made to protect operations, facilities, and
property of the Railroad, the Contractor shall make such provisions. If in the
judgement of the Railroad Engineer, or in his absence, the Highway Engineer,
such provision is insufficient, either may require or make such provisions as he
deems necessary. In any event, such unusual provisions shall be at the
Contractor’s expense and without cost to the Railroad or the Department.

B. Any cost incurred by the Railroad for repairing damages to its property or to
property of its tenants, caused by or resulting from the operations of the
Contractor, shall be paid directly to the Railroad by the Contractor.
7. FLAGGING SERVICES:
A. When Required
Under the terms of the agreement between the Department and the Railroad, the
Railroad has sole authority to determine the need for flagging required to protect
its operations and facilities. In general, the requirements for flagging will be
whenever the Contractor’s personnel or equipment are, or are likely to be,
working on the Railroad’s right-of-way, or within distances as may be specified
by Railroad’s authorized representative, or across, over, adjacent to, or under a
track, or when such work has disturbed or is likely to disturb a railroad structure
or the railroad roadbed or surface and alignment of any track to such extent that
the movement of trains must be controlled by flagging. These requirements
include situations where a crane, or other piece of equipment, is located such that
its boom, or extremity, could move and pass within 20 feet of the centerline of a
track or within a distance as may otherwise be specified by Railroad’s authorized
representative. Safety guidelines are given in paragraph 11 herein. Normally the
Railroad will assign one flagman to a project, based on an 8 hour workday
and 40 hour workweek, but in some cases more than one may be necessary.
B. Scheduling and Notification
(1) Not later than the time that approval is initially requested to begin work on
Railroad right-of-way, Contractor shall furnish to the Railroad and the
Department a schedule for all work required to complete the portion of the
project within Railroad right-of-way.
(2) The Contractor will be required to give the Railroad representative at least 10
working days of advance notice of intent to begin work within Railroad right-
of-way in accordance with paragraph 2.A.(1) of this special provision. Once
begun, when such work is then suspended at any time, or for any reason, the
Contractor will be required to give the Railroad representative at least 3
working days of advance notice before resuming work on Railroad right-of-
way. Such notices shall include sufficient details of the proposed work to
enable the Railroad representative to determine if flagging will be required. If
such notice is in writing, the contractor shall furnish the Highway Engineer a
copy; if notice is given verbally it shall be confirmed in writing with copy to
the Highway Engineer. If flagging is required, no work shall be undertaken
until the flagman is, or flagmen are, present at the job site. It may take up to
30 days to obtain flagging initially from the Railroad. When flagging begins,
the flagman is usually assigned by the Railroad to work at the project site on a
continual basis until no longer needed and cannot be called for on a spot basis.
If flagging becomes unnecessary and is suspended, it may take up to 30 days
to again obtain flagging from the Railroad. Due to Railroad practices, in
SPECIAL PROVISION FOR PROTECTION OF RAILWAY INTERESTS
8
some cases it may be necessary to give 5 days notice before flagging service
may be discontinued and payment stopped.
(3) If, after the flagman is assigned to the project site, unusual circumstances or
conditions arise which require the flagman’s presence elsewhere, then the
Contractor shall delay work on Railroad right-of-way until such time as the
flagman is again available. Any additional costs resulting from such delays
shall be done by the Contractor and not the Department or Railroad.
C. Payment
(1) The Contractor will be responsible for paying the Railroad directly for
any and all costs of flagging which may be required to accomplish the
construction. The Contractor shall not delegate this responsibility to any
subcontractor or any other party. The Department will not reimburse the
Railroad for any costs of the flagging which is required by the Contractor’s
work. The cost of flagging service is approximately $125.00 per hour or
$1000.00 per day based on an 8-hour work day and 40-hour work week. This
cost includes the base pay for the flagman, overhead, and generally includes
travel expenses, meals, lodging, equipment, etc. The charge to the Contractor
by the Railroad will be the actual cost based on the rate of pay for the
Railroad’s employees who are available for flagging service at the time the
service is required. Work by a flagman in excess of 8 hours per day and 40
hours per week may result in overtime pay at 1 ½ time the appropriate rate.
Also, certain unusual conditions may arise which may result in overtime pay
at 2 times the appropriate rate. Railroad work involved in preparing and
handling bills may also be charged to the Contractor. Charges to the
Contractor by the Railroad shall be in accordance with Federal-Aid Highway
billing procedures and requirements as contained in applicable provisions of
Part 140, Subpart I, and Part 646, Subpart B, of Title 23, Highways, of the
Code of Federal Regulations, current edition, and shall further be on the same
basis as the Department would be billed by the Railroad if the Department
was paying for the charges.
(2) The contractor will be billed for flagging services on a periodic basis directly
by the Railroad. The Contractor will promptly pay such bills within 30 days
after each bill is rendered. Should the Contractor fail to pay the Railroad
within 60 days after any bill is rendered, the Department may pay directly to
the railroad any amounts due and deduct the amount of such payments from
any funds due the contractor. This provision does not affect the obligation of
the Contractor under his bond or the rights of the Railroad or the Department
under the bond.
D. Verification
(1) The Contractor will review and sign the Railroad flagman’s semi-monthly
time sheet, or other similar documentation, attesting that the flagman was
present during the time recorded. The Railroad’s flagman may also enter
flagging time electronically via the Railroad’s electronic billing system. Any
SPECIAL PROVISION FOR PROTECTION OF RAILWAY INTERESTS
9
complaints concerning flagging must be resolved in a timely manner. If need
for flagging is questioned, please contact Railroad’s System Engineer of
Public Improvements. All verbal complaints will be confirmed in writing by
the contractor within 5 working days with a copy to the Department Engineer.
Address all written correspondence to:

(2) The Railroad flagman assigned to the project will be responsible for notifying
the Highway Engineer upon arrival at the job site on the first day (or as soon
thereafter as possible) that flagging services begin and on the last day that he
performs such services for each separate period that services are provided.
The Highway Engineer will document such notification in the project records.
When requested, the Highway Engineer will also sign the flagman’s time
sheets showing daily time spent at the project site.
8. TRANSPORTING MATERIALS AND EQUIPMENT ACROSS TRACKS:
A. Where the plans show or imply that materials of any nature must be
hauled across a Railroad, unless the plans clearly show that the Department has
included arrangements for such haul in its agreement with the Railroad, the
Contractor will be required to make all necessary arrangements with the
Railroad regarding means of transporting such materials across the railroad.
The Contractor will be required to bear all costs incidental to such crossings
whether services are performed by his own forces or by Railroad personnel.
B. No crossing may be established for use of the contractor for transporting
materials or equipment across the tracks of the Railroad Company unless
specific authority for its installation, maintenance, necessary watching and
flagging thereof and removal, until a temporary private crossing agreement has
been executed between the Contractor and Railroad. The approval process for
an agreement, normally takes 90 days.
9. WORK FOR THE BENEFIT OF THE CONTRACTOR:
A. All temporary or permanent changes in wire lines or other facilities which are
considered necessary to the project are shown on the plans; included in the
force account agreement between the Department and the Railroad; or will be
covered by appropriate revisions to same which will be initiated and approved
by the Department and the Railroad.
B. Should the Contractor desire any changes in addition to the above, then it shall
make separate arrangements with the Railroad for same to be accomplished,
including any required flagging service, at the Contractor’s expense.

10. COOPERATION AND DELAYS
A. It shall be the Contractor’s responsibility to arrange a schedule with the
Railroad for accomplishing stage construction involving work by the Railroad
or tenants of the Railroad. In arranging the schedule the contractor shall
ascertain, from the Railroad, the lead time required for assembling crews and
materials and shall make due allowance therefore.
B. No charge or claims of the Contractor against either the Department or the
Railroad will be allowed for hindrance or delay on account of railway traffic,
any work performed or to be performed by the Railroad, or other delay
incident to or necessary for safe maintenance of railway traffic and facilities,
or for any delays due to compliance with this special provision.

Bridge Reconstruction over Norfolk Southern/ Central of Georgia Railroad
Dear Chairperson Davis:
Attached is an undated force account agreement, in PDF format, between Central of Georgia Railroad Company – Norfolk Southern Corporation, the City of Augusta and the Department of Transportation supported by an estimate in the amount of $79,481.00 of which the Department
will bear 100 percent. This project is proposing to widen Windsor Spring Road from SR 88 to
Willis Foreman Road in the City of Hephzibah, Richmond County, Georgia. The agreement will
be dated by the Department upon execution on behalf of the Department. The City is being asked to sign the agreement because this project is located on a local road and
the City needs to acknowledge that they will take over the maintenance of the bridge crossing
after the project construction is completed. Please note that due to the passage of House Bill 87
in the 2011 Georgia General Assembly, it is now a requirement for you to complete the Immigration Compliance Affidavit included in the attached agreement. If the agreement meets with your approval, it will be appreciated if you will print 4 copies and handle for execution as
originals on behalf of the City and return all counterparts to this office for further processing. In
connection with the execution of the agreement, please be sure to have a witness to the signature.
You can find a resolution attached, or you use the attached resolution or you can create your own version.
After the agreement is executed by all parties, it will be held by this office until the project has
been awarded to a construction contract. We will then notify you of the award and return an
executed original of the agreement. This project is currently scheduled to be in our April 2015 letting.
You may contact Jill Franks or Marcela Coll if further information is needed at 404-631-1370/1372 or by mail addressed to Georgia Department of Transportation, Office of Utilities, 600 W. Peachtree St. NW, 10th Floor, Atlanta, Georgia 30308 or by e-mail at jfranks@dot.ga.gov

Windsor Spring Road Phase V – 3 Party Agreement
Department:Abie L. Ladson, Director
Caption:Motion to authorize the Mayor, Clerk of Commission and the
Augusta Law Department to execute the Three Party Agreement
between the Georgia Department of Transportation (GDOT),
Central of Georgia Railroad - Norfolk Southern Corporation, and
Augusta, Georgia on the project to reconstruct the bridge over
Norfolk Southern Railroad as part of the Windsor Spring Road
Phase V improvements from SR 88 in Hephzibah to Willis
Foreman Rd, CPB# 323-04-299823786. Execution of the
Agreement acknowledges that Augusta, Georgia will be
responsible for the maintenance of the bridge crossing after
construction is completed. (Approved by Engineering Services
Committee February 23, 2015)
Background:On April 6, 1999 the Augusta, Georgia Commission approved for
Augusta, Georgia to enter into an agreement with GDOT to
accept responsibility for the project preliminary engineering, right
of way acquisition and relocation of utilities on the Windsor
Spring Road Phase V project. The project will widen and
reconstruct Windsor Spring Road to 4 lanes with a 19’ raised
median from SR 88 in Hephzibah to Willis Foreman Road and
replace the bridge over Norfolk Southern Railroad. R/W activities
and final design activities are nearing completion. The current
let date is April 17, 2015 and the construction funding for the
bridge will be provided by GDOT. The current estimated cost is
$1,935,640.
Analysis:The improvements to Windsor Spring Road from SR 88 in
Hephzibah to Willis Foreman Road include the replacement of the
existing bridge and construction of a new bridge over Norfolk
Southern Railroad. The construction of the new bridge will be
done by the GDOT Contractor that is awarded the bid on this
project.
Financial Impact:Augusta, Georgia is already maintaining the existing bridge so
there will be no additional financial impact. Upon completion of
the construction, the future cost to maintain the new bridge should
be reduced compared to the cost to maintain the existing bridge.
Alternatives:1: Authorize the Mayor, Clerk of Commission and the Augusta
Law Department to execute the 3 Party Agreement between the
Georgia Department of Transportation (GDOT), Central of
Georgia Railroad - Norfolk Southern Corporation, and Augusta,
Georgia on the project to reconstruct the bridge over Norfolk
Southern Railroad as part of the Windsor Spring Road Phase V
improvements from SR 88 in Hephzibah to Willis Foreman Rd,

Windsor Spring Road Phase V – USPS Redesign – SA 18
Department:Abie L. Ladson, Director
Caption:Motion to approve Supplemental Agreement Eighteen, CPB#
323-04-299823786, with Jacobs Engineering Group Inc. in the
amount of $87,820 to prepare construction plan revision for
submission to GDOT for the redesign of roadway alignment and
geometry to minimize impacts to parcel 9, United States Post
Office, on the project to improve Windsor Spring Road Phase V
from SR 88 in Hephzibah to Willis Foreman Rd as requested by
AED. (Approved by Engineering Services Committee
February 23, 2015)
Background:This is GDOT managed project. Under intergovernmental
agreement for this project, Augusta is responsible for roadway
design & associated permitting and utility relocation. GDOT is
responsible for roadway construction. The project will widen and
reconstruct Windsor Spring Road to 4 lanes with a 19’ raised
median from SR 88 in Hephzibah to Willis Foreman Road and
replace the bridge over Norfolk Southern Railroad. R/W activities
and final design activities are nearing completion. The current let
date is April 17, 2015 and the construction funding will be
provided by GDOT (Federal, State & TIA funds) at an estimated
cost of $17,385,151.
Analysis:The design in the vicinity of the Post Office requires acquisition of
right-of-way from the United States Postal Services. In June 2014
negotiations began with the Post Office. The Post Office advised
that the plans as currently configured were not acceptable because
of operational and safety concerns. Numerous emails and
conference calls were held with representatives of the Post Office,
GDOT and the Engineering Department and on January 30, 2015
concurrence was received from the Post Office on design
modifications that reduces the impact to their parcel. The redesign
effort affects over 2,000 linear feet of geometry and drainage
design on Windsor Spring Road and the intersections of SR 88
and Cemetery Street. This involves the redesign of drainage
structures, retaining walls on the Post Office parcel and revisions
to the right of way plans, construction plans, utility plans, erosion
control plans, street lighting plans, signing, marking and signal
plans, updating environmental documents, and increase project
coordination. The total fee to cover aforementioned revisions is
$87,820.
Financial Impact:The supplemental work fee is $87,820. Funds are available in the
TIA Discretionary account and will be transferred to the Phase V
project engineering account.
Alternatives:ALTERNATIVE 1: Approve Supplemental Agreement Eighteen,
CPB# 323-04-299823786, with Jacobs Engineering Group Inc. in
the amount of $87,820 to prepare construction plan revision for
submission to GDOT for the redesign of roadway alignment and
geometry to minimize impacts to parcel 9, United States Post
Office, on the project to improve Windsor Spring Road Phase V
from SR 88 in Hephzibah to Willis Foreman Rd. ALTERNATIVE
