APPENDIX A
SCOPE OF SERVICES
I. GENERAL PROJECT SCOPE The scope of the Project is to grade the area
between Runways 17 -35 and 8L -26R in order to comply with FAA Line of Sight Criteria
and to improve the line of site between Runway 8L -26R and Runway 8R -26L. The
location and size of said area is shown in Appendix D, Scope of Work Sketch.
II. BASIC SERVICES
A. Study and Report Phase These services shall include project formulation to
determine the extent of the grading required and the location of a waste area
where excavated material will be placed. The intent is to locate the waste area in
a location useful for future development. Extensive coordination with the FAA
will be required throughout all elements of the project due to the need to relocate
existing FAA facilities.
B. Preliminary Design Phase The Engineer will develop a more detailed schematic
design and cost estimate. Based upon this data, the extent of waste area will be
determined and a preliminary grading plan prepared consistent with the Owner's
desire for future development of the area. During this phase the Engineer will
determine whether a retaining wall will be required to prevent the need to
relocate existing FAA facilities.
C. Final Design and Bidding Phase The second phase of engineering services to
be provided will be Final Design and Bidding Phase Services. The Engineer will
provide services for final plans and specifications to grade the specified areas in
order to comply with FAA criteria. Design of water, sanitary sewer, and storm
drainage for the future development will be excluded from the design documents.
Design documents will include silt and erosion management plan services as well
as permitting services. Bidding Phase Services shall include attendance at a
pre -bid conference and assisting the Owner in obtaining bids for the Project. All
airside design shall meet current FAA criteria.
D. Construction Phase Construction Phase Services are not included in this
Agreement. At the time of this Agreement the construction duration of the
Project has not been established. In that the budget for Construction
Administration, Resident Inspection, and Quality Assurance Testing is dependant
on the construction duration, Construction Phase Services, if so desired, will be
negotiated at a later time through a separate agreement or through an
amendment to this agreement. Construction Phase services will include sealed
as -built reproducible drawings and electronic files.
A -1
III. MISCELLANEOUS /SPECIAL SERVICES As part of this Agreement the
Engineer will perform the following Special Services:
A. DBE Goal Services Develop the goal for Disadvantaged Business Enterprises
for participation in the Project to be included in the bidding documents.
B. Grant Administration Services Provide grant administration services as
necessary to assist the Owner with preparation of state and Federal grant
requests (pre - application) and grant applications. These services also include
completion of an FAA required environmental categorical exclusion checklist
"CATEX"
C. Coordination With FAA Coordinate the design with appropriate FAA personnel
in order to insure that FAA facilities are relocated from the project area and to
prevent disruptions in service.
D. ASOS Relocation Provide design services to relocate the existing Automated
Surface Observing System (ASOS) and coordinate this activity with the National
Weather Service.
E. Pre - design Survey Provide pre - design surveying services to provide necessary
design data for the Project.
F. Pre - design Geotechnical Investigation Provide pre - design geotechnical services
to provide necessary design data for the Project.
G. Reproduction and Postage Provide reproduction and postage services
associated with copies of contract documents and specifications for use in the
Bidding Phase.
IV. ADDITIONAL SERVICES Services not included in this agreement include
design of utilities such as storm drainage, sanitary sewer, and potable water associated
with the future development area.
Also excluded from this agreement are environmental services beyond preparation of a
categorical exclusion checklist. If the FAA does not concur in the environmental
categorical exclusion additional environmental services will be provided through a future
work agreement or amendment to this work agreement.
