W.K. Dickson & Co., Inc. (WKD) proposes to provide professional land surveying and engineering services for the described project. The proposed sanitary sewer main project will consist of approximately 1,700 LF of 30" diameter ductile iron pipe that will connect at one end to an existing manhole east of the intersection of Division Street and Pearl A venue and connect to the opposite end to an existing manhole located west of the Augusta Canal and north of Broad Street. The proposed sanitary sewer main will be located west of the Augusta Canal on property owned by the City of Augusta, Georgia. Said main will generally parallel the Augusta Canal approximately 125' from the edge of the canal. Due to the condition of the line it is expected that the new outfall line will be installed further from the canal to facilitate laying conditions. DESIGN OBJECTIVES: The CONSULTANT proposes to provide the following scope of services for the fees listed under the "Cost Proposal" . A. Design Surveys and Mapping CONSULT ANT proposes to complete field surveys (both topographic and physical) and related mapping for the proposed sanitary sewer main replacement. From data provided by the Augusta Utilities Department (work sheets from AUD survey crew, easement plats, and agreement with Georgia Power Company regarding GPC transmission lines), W K Dickson will provide a strip topographic map of the area showing existing contours (1' interval) and existing utilities within the described area. The described area would be approximately 1,400 'in length and a width of 150' more or less (4.8 ac). It should be noted that existing manholes range in depth of 15'-22'. Therefore," confined space entry" will be employed to determine the invert elevation of the existing manholes. These existing manholes will act as "tie-in" points for the proposed replacement main. A UD has identified several control points which are referenced horizontally to the geographic coordinate system of the North American 1983 Datum. The design survey will use information previously prepared by AUD and then augment with additional topographics and property location needed for construction documents. -Establishing horizontal and vertical control for the proposed improvements. -Survey physical and topographical conditions at the existing project site. 17 OF 26 REVISION DATE: June 2006 -Locate visible above ground and subsurface utilities. We will attempt to locate available information regarding underground utilities such as water, sewer, and Stormwater with the assistance of Augusta Utilities Department and will map other underground utilities (such as gas, telephone, cable and power) as marked in the field by utility location firms. -WK Dickson will subcontract private location of underground utilities to supplement utility locations by utilities providers -Since the depth of the sanitary sewer main is a major factor in the design, WK Dickson has requested the services of Qore Property Sciences. Qore will provide geotechnical services to perform subsurface exploration of the site. WK Dickson will review the scope of services for Qore with AUD prior to subcontracting the work and bill as a reimbursable expense at a cost plus 15%. -It is anticipated that WKD will prepare a new easement plat for the relocated line and the construction thereof as part of the project. This plat will be prepared during the design phase of the project and submitted to AUD for review and acceptance. It is anticipated that only one property will be affected and that all easements can be done on one plat. B. Waters of the US Delineation WK Dickson does not anticipate any waters of the u.s. in the project area. Therefore, mitigation is not anticipated at this time and mitigation planning is not included in the cost estimate. C Engineering Design Utilizing the design surveying and mapping, final plans and specifications will be developed for the proposed project with the anticipation of a high water table and the depth of the manholes, special structures will be considered for the proposed manholes. Work in this phase will include the following: -Finalize horizontal and vertical geometry. -Meet with Utilities Department to define phases. -Prepare plans and detail sheets for the phase. Additions to the Augusta Utilities Department "Standard s and Specifications" will be made to adjust for the special structures. -Show the necessary erosion control measures for the entire project and prepare erosion control details. -Prepare technical specifications on materials and workmanship. Prepare technical specifications on materials and workmanship to comply with the results of the subsurface exploration. -Submit Plans, Specifications and Permit Applications to Augusta Utilities Department for review. This will include applications to Erosion Control EPD. 18 OF 26 REVISION DATE: June 2006 -Prepare construction cost estimates at each review stage 30%, 70%, 100% and with the submittal of final documents. D. CONSTRUCTION BIDDING Upon receiving the approvals from the regulatory agencies and the OWNER, the CONSULTANT will proceed with the Construction Bidding portion of the project consisting of the following tasks: Coordinate with the City Procurement Department to advertise the project. Fax bid information to City Attend mandatory pre-bid meeting as a technical reference to the CITY for the project. Prepare letter of recommendation for award of the contract. Develop conformed contract documents and forward to the CITY for execution. Attend the pre-construction meeting as a technical reference to the CITY. Provide clarification related to the plans/ specifications throughout design and construction. E. CONSTRUCTION ADMINISTRATION Provide record drawings at completion of the project electronically, per the Utilities Design Standards and Specifications (latest version). This will be based on red line drawings from the construction inspector Provide Services During Construction as follows: - Attend Project meetings as scheduled by the CITY (anticipating eight (8) project meetings) . - Recommend design changes as field conflicts arise (site visits may be required) - Review and approval of pay requests from the construction Contractor (line of Communication will be construction contractor to resident observer to CONSULTANT to CITY). - Provide clarification and specifications throughout construction. - Revise/update plans and / or easement plats as changes occur that require submittal to DOT / other agencies. 19 OF 26 REVISION DATE: June 2006 ATTACHMENT B - COMPENSATION The CITY shall compensate the CONSULT ANT for services, which have been authorized by the CITY under the terms of this Agreement.
