Re: Augusta Canal. Third Level Improvements Study
1998 Update
Dear Drew:
In accordance with your request. we are pleased to offer the following proposal for furnishing
engineering services to update the Augusta Canal Third Level Improvements Study that we
originally authored in 1979. The proposal outlines the project background and need. describes the
scope of services offered. and presents a fee structure and time frame for accomplishing the work.
PROJECT BACKGROUND AND NEED
The Third Level of the Augusta Canal System forms the main drainage way for downtown
Augusta. The purpose of its construction in 1845 was to serve as the tailrace for water-powered
mills built on the second level of the canaL A secondary purpose was to provide an avenue for
conveying away storm water and sanitary sewage from the city. The third level canal is now of linle
importance as a tailrace. since all water turbine installations on the second level have been taken out
of service. Major storm and sanitary sewer separation projects undertaken by the City of Augusta
over the past twenty years have and will eliminate most of the sanitary sewage discharges. The third
level canal remains important as a storm drain. though. especially because of its operation in
conjunction with the Savannah River levee. Drainage from the central business district which
tormerly t10wed directly into the river is now conveyed to the river via the third level canal. During
periods of high stages in the river when the levee gates are closed. the third level canal not only
drains the central city. but also serves as the principal drainage avenue for additional areas of the
city outside the central business district. Unfortunately. the third level canal does not have sufticient
capacity to handle the nood runotf directed toward it.
In 1978. the City of Augusta commissioned our tirm to make a study of the third level canal.
The resulting report outlined methods of increasing the nood handling capacity of the waterway.

while improving the unsanit:uy and unsightly conditions along it. Three years later. our tirm
prepared construction plans for the tirst of the five phases identified in the plan. That improvement
project. constructed in about 1982. removed a major bottleneck at the culvert crossing under Laney-
Walker Boulevard and the CSX Railroad. and involved walling and paving of approximately 1.500
feet of channel.
Since that time. severnl circumstances have arisen and several plans have been made that
affect the third level canal and its improvement along the lines outlined in the original study. These
factors are described in the .ensuing paragraphs.
Two further phases of concrete lined channel, reaching from the CSX Railroad to Eighth
Street. were designed by others. but were not constructed due to unavailability of funding. Our tirm
is currently working on redesigning these two phases. consolidated together. through an approach
which seeks to stretch construction monies further by building new road crossings to reduce flow
restrictions and making modest enlargements to the earth ch3lUlel between them. thereby postponing
the concrete lining of the waterway until a later time. This approach will allow the most efficient
use of scarce construction funding to do the most good for flood control in the interim. Major
elements of the project will consist of a new bridge crossing at Twiggs (Seventh) Street: an inverted
siphon on the Mid-city Interceptor Sewer at Twiggs Street: a new bridge at Eighth Street: a
deepened. and perhaps minimally widened. channel from the Fifth Street storm sewer outfall to
Eighth Street: and the diversion of flushing water from the Second Level canal.
Recently. Atlanta Gas Light Company (doing business in Augusta as Georgia Natural Gas
Company) has been assessing the extent of environmental contamination resulting from the
operation of its old coal gasification works between King Street and Walton Way. and planning for
its cleanup in a satisfactory m3lUler. Subsurface test results reported by their consulting engineering
team. Remediation Technologies. Inc. and Law Engineering and Environmental Services. [nc..
indicate that residues of the manufactured gas process extend along the third level canal from the
intersection of the second level canal near King Street west to the Twelfth Street gates area. These
byproduct materials appear to extend to depths of four to fourteen feet below the bottom of the
present waterway. The company has retained Remediation Technologies Inc. (ReT ec. Inc.) to assist
them in developing a remediation plan of action that will be acceptable to the Georgia Environmental
Protection Division. the City of Augusta. and others. It would seem that some amount of the soils
in the bottom of the canal would need to be removed and properly disposed of. The main questions
then become how much digging out: what amount of filling back and/or what type of capping
method will be needed: and how can this work be done in a way that will complement the city plan
for widening and deepening the canal to improve its hydraulic capacity?
In 1989 the Georgia General Assembly established the .-\ugusta Canal .-\uthority to take
advantage of the aesthetic. recreational. and historic values of the .-\ugusta Can~.d System. [n 1992
and 1993 the Authority developed a master plan. with extensive citizen involvement. for the long-

\
term improvement and use of the canal area. focusing on preservation. recreation. education. and
economic development. Both the City Council of Augusta and the Richmond County Commission
adopted the plan. As a result. the State of Georgia designated the canal area as a Regionally
Important Resource. and the United States Congress designated the same area as the Augusta Canal
National Heritage Area. The stated goals of the master plan for the area of the third level canal
generally include rewatering the canal. neighborhood revitalization. historical interpretation of the
gas works site. interim uses of open lands as an urban fann. and recreation trails connecting the gas
works site and Dyess Park with other public canal lands lying to the west. The purpose ofrewatering
the third level canal is to allow it to flow, instead of being relatively stagnant, making it more of an
amenity to enhance the area rather than a ditch to be avoided. The plan suggested the possibility of
enlarging the waterway in places to form one or more shallow lakes. Like the gas company
remediation plan. this plan has not been coordinated in detail with the original third level
improvements study.
Also in the interim. the city experienced a major flood on October 12. 1990. This unusual
period of heavy rainfall and runoff provided a live test of the effectiveness of the drainage ways in
the region. including the third level canal. The city more recently experienced two lesser floods on
September 24. 1995 and March 8. 1996. There are lessons to be learned about the operation of the
canal as a drainageway based on the experience of city staff members during these events.
Because of the circumstances and plans described above. it has now become desirable to
update the 1979 Third Level Improvements Study to take into account the additional information.
actions. and studies that have occurred during the intervening years.
SCOPE OF WORK
The purpose of updating the Third Level Improvements Study will be to develop a
coordinated plan of drainage improvements that will dovetail with the Atlanta Gas Light Company
remediation plan and the Augusta Canal Master Plan. While the work is described as an update to
the earlier work. it will involve considerable new effort to take advantage of computer software and
digital technology that was not available at the time of the original plan. Thus. in some sense. the
resulting study will be entirely up to date and prepared by the latest methods. The engineering study
will be conducted according to the following outline:
Pro Dosed Plan of Study

3cRtatioft BY tfie Resident Projeet Repremllati v e at the site
will be to enable ENGINEER to bener carry out the duties
and responsibilities assigned to and undertaken by ENGI-
NEER dULng the Construction Phase, and, in addition, by
the exercise of ENGINEER's efforts as an experienced and
qualified design professional, to provide for OWNER a
greater degree of confidence that the completed work of
Contractor will conform in general to the Contract Docu-
ments and that the integrity of the design concept of the
completed Project as a functioning whole as indicated in
the Contract Documents has been implemented and pre-
served by Contractor. On the other hand, ENGINEER shall
not, during such visits or as a result of such observations of

procedures of such inspections, tests or approvals comply with
the requirements of the Contract Documents. ENGINEER
shall be entitled to rely on the results of such tests.
2.5.9 Disagreements ben.veen OWNER and Contractor.
ENGINEER ~;hall render the initial decisions on all claims of

2.5.10 App/ic::Jtions for Payment. Based on ENGINEER's on-
site observations as an experienced and qualified design
professional and on review of Applications for Payment and
the accompanying data and schedules:
2.5.10.1 ENGINEER shall determine the amounts that
ENGINEER recommends Contractor be paid. Such
recommendations of payment will be in writing and will
constitute ENGINEER's representation to OWNER, based
on such o:)servations and review, that, to the best of the
ENGINEER's knowledge, infonnation and belief, the work
has progressed to the point indicated, the quality of such
work is generally in accordance with the Contract Docu-
ments (subject to an evaluation of such work as a function-
ing whole prior to or upon Substantial Completion, to the
results of any subsequent tests called for in the Contract
Document:; and to any other qualifications stated in the

of the work in progress, or involved detailed inspections of
the work beyond the responsibilities specifically assigned
to ENGINEER in this Agreement and the Contract Docu-
ments. Neither ENGINEER's review of Contractor's work
for the purposes of recommending payments nor ENGI-
NEER's recommendation of any payment (including final
payment) will impose on ENGINEER responsibility to
supervise, direct or control such work or for the means,
methods, techniques, sequences or procedures of construc-
tion or safety precautions or programs incident thereto, or
Contractor's compliance with laws, rules, regulations,
ordinances, codes or orders applicable to Contractor's
furnishing and perfonning the work. It will also not impose
responsibility on ENGINEER to make any examination to
ascertain how or for what purposes Contractor has used the
moneys paid on account of the Contract Price, or to deter-
mine that title to any of the work, materials or equipment
has passed to OWNER free and clear of allY liens, claims,
security interests or encumbrances, or that there may not be
other matters at issue between OWNER and Contractor that
might affect the amount that should be paid.

ing Shop Drawings, Samples, and other data approved as
provided under paragraph 2.5.6 and marked-up record Draw-
ings) which are to be assembled by Contractor in accordance
with the Contract Documents to obtain final payment.
ENGINEER's review of such documents will only be to
determine generally that their content complies with the
requirements of, and in the case of certificates of inspections,
tests and approvals that the results certified indicate compli-
ance with, the Contract Documents.
2.5.12 Substantial Completion. Following notice from
Contractor that Contractor considers the entire work ready for
its intended use, ENGINEER and OWNER, accompanied by

Further Description of Basic Engineering Services and Related Matters
Sections 2,3,4 and 5 of the Agreement are amended and supplemented and the time periods for the perfonnance of the Basic
Services as indicated in Section 5 of the Agreement are established, all as indicated below:
A2.0 Genenil
The Basic Services are premised on the following general
scope of professional services:
The work will begin with performing field surveys to
supplement and enhance existing topographic maps of the
study area. The maps will be converted into digital fonnat.
The recommendations outlined in the "Third Level Improve-
ments Study" and in the proposal will be validated and
expounded on in consultation with the OWNER. An investiga-
tion into the :Jossibility of diverting flushing water from the
second level canal will be made. Budget cost estimates will be
prepared. Alterations to the scope or phasing of the project
will be made as necessary. Initial plans requiring approvals or
permits of other agencies, such as GADOT, will be shared
early, so that their comments can be taking into consideration.
Work requiring the services of other consultants will be
coordinated. The work will also include a presentation of the
Conceptual Design to the public in a neighborhood meeting
format.
Upon completion and approval of the Conceptual Plan, the
Preliminary Design Phase will be undertaken. Concepts and
layouts will bt: refined and fUlther worked out with the advice
and input of rhe OWNER. Drawings will be prepared with
sufficient detail so that the right-of-way and easements for the
project can be delineated and a preliminary cost estimate made.
Further design studies beyond the scope of this proposal,
including subsurface investigations, archaeological documenta-
tion, and possible wetlands permitting, may be necessary.
The Final Design Phase will begin upon the approval of the
preliminary plans. The work will include incorporating
comments received on the preliminary submittal; developing
details, plans, sections, and elevations; preparing specifications
and contract documents; furnishing a cost estimate and a
schedule for bidding; submitting these documents for approval
by the OWN ER : and incorporating any review comments
received.
The bidding phase will follow the receipt of approvals of
the final design documents. The work will generally consist of
assisting the OWNER with obtaining competitive bids for the
construction work, reviewing the bids, recommending an
award and issuing a Notice to Proceed.
Construction phase engineering services will consist of
periodic site visits to observe the progress and general quality
of the work as it progresses; reviewing shop drawings; prepar-
ing any change orders required; reviewing contractor's monthly
applications for partial payment; and making a pre-final and a
final site visit to determine whether or not the work has been
completed in substantial confornlity with the plans and
specifications. Site visits will generally be when called upon
to inspect a particular area or to resolve a construction conflict.
While more intense on-site observation services are beyond the
scope of this proposal, we have the capability for furnishing
more frequent observation or resident project representation,
if those services should be desired.
Any observation services will be for the purpose of moni-
toring compliance with the plans, specifications and contract
documents, and will not in any manner be a guarantee of the
schedule, materials, appliances, or methods of the contractor,
nor for the safety of the job.
A2.1 Final Products
Deliverables under this proposal will generally consist of
ten sets of detailed construction plans, technical specifications,
contract documents, and cost estimates. Additional copies will
be available at the cost of reproduction.
Drawings will be prepared in ink on Mylar film at suitable
scales, using matched sheets where necessary. Drawings can
also be fmished in digital fonnat in Intergraph MicroStation or
AutoCAD Release 13 format, if desired, at no additional cost.
In the case of difference between the drawings and the elec-
tronically produced images, the hard copy tracings will govern.
