SCOPE OF SERVICES Our Scope of Services incorporates the tasks identified by the City in the RFP, and as expanded below. TASK 1 - PROJECT ADMINISTRATION Prior to the start of the project, we will have a kickoff meeting with City Staff and the project team to review the project objectives, schedule, scope and approach. At this meeting, we will establish a point of contact for the project and request all available information related to the project. In addition, the NV5 Project Manager will coordinate all aspects of the project and manage the schedule and costs to assure the project's completion to the satisfaction of the City. TASK 2 - RESEARCH EXISTING CONDITIONS A) Research - Perform research of records including utilities and other agency records as necessary to secure information required to identify, locate, and accurately lay out all existing utilities, improvements, easements, and rights -of -way within project limits that may interfere with the proposed improvements. The information to be researched will be, at a minimum, the following: 1. Review existing utility and street record drawing plans. 2. Perform utility investigation/utility coordination and provide utility relocation recommendations, if necessary. 3. Perform field investigation and measurement to assess existing site conditions. 4. Provide a copy of all utility notifications and responses prior to the first progress payment request. B) Surveying - Perform a topographic survey along the pipe alignment to include the following: 1. Provide topographic survey using City standard North American Datum 1983. 2. Provide one (1)-foot contours based on City of Santa Ana vertical datum (NGVD 88). 3. Provide spot elevations at critical locations along the alignment to verify vertical control, check existing utilities, such as sewer manholes and storm drain junction structures. 4. Survey flow -line elevations of existing underground sewer and storm drain utilities crossing the proposed pipeline. 5. Provide spot elevations at all locations where existing utilities are potholed. 6. Show surface features and visible indications of existing utilities to include curbs and gutters, sidewalks, and other elements relevant to prepare a comprehensive topographic map suitable for pipeline design and construction. 7. Establish street centerlines, right-of-way lines, and easements from available record information. 8. Provide the basis -of -bearing and benchmark information used for the survey and necessary for construction. C) Utility Locating/Potholing - Perform necessary research to identify all existing utilities and potential conflicts. Pothole existing utilities to verify depth and location (assume 15 potholes). Measure and identify in the potholing report the depth of pavement and base material at each location potholed. Provide all required traffic control and surface repair necessary for potholing work. TASK 3 - PRELIMINARY DESIGN Develop a preliminary design of the project site to review with City staff. An approximate 30% design level will constitute a preliminary design for this project. Preliminary design will include, but not be limited to, the following: • Existing utilities • Existing pavement, curb, gutter, sidewalk, driveways • Permitting requirements • Traffic impacts • Easement requirements • Proposed pipe alignment and connections • Proposed pavement, curb, gutter, sidewalk, driveways • Based on survey results and City input, NV5 will design proposed water and sewer improvements • Preliminary construction cost estimate • Schedule TASK 4 - FINAL ENGINEERING AND PREPARATION OF CONSTRUCTION CONTRACT DOCUMENTS Final Engineering will include detailed engineering calculations, design, construction plans, and the engineer's construction cost estimate for the project that will enable the City to advertise and award the construction contract for the project.
