B. DATA COLLECTION AND. PROJECT DOCUMENTATION We will research all information pertinent to the project such as, the latest street improvement plans, right of way maps, previous Intorseotions and median improvement pians, storm drain, water and.sewer plans, and utility plans in.order to include this information in the project plans. C. DESIGN SURVEY The survey tasks include, but are not limited to, the followins Wa will perform a topographic survey and prepare base maps. We will make sure our base maps show the right of way, curb and gutter, sidewalk, parkway, street centerline, access ramps, driveways, signs, poles, etc. In addition, we will include all Irdormation obtained from all affected utiiityocmpanies within the roadway and parkways. The base maps will then be confirmed during outfield walks. The main objective is to have all existing impvmmenta Scourately depicted in our base maps so that all constraints are considered during our design of the project. The survey will Include cross sections the street to adequately show the condition of the project site prior to construction: D. UTILITY INVESTIGATION AND COORDINATION We will research and establish record location of all utilities and utility easements, as necessary.

We will perform a geotechnical reconnaissance of the site slid take up to six borings samples at strategic locations within the project Sees to observe the existing pavement thickness and soil conditions beneath and to facilitate collection of sub -grade soff samples for lab testing. The results of our told and laboratory testing will be provided In a report which will Include; thickness of pavement section, site soil characterization, R -Value of sub -grade soils, and pavement improvements recommendations. F PRELIMINARY PLANS Utilizing the above date and base plans, we will prepare a preliminary street improvement plans and profiles using 1" - 40 horizontal and I." - 4' vertical scale. in 25E-516
