Mr. Hilrlanshu Mehta, P . E . 19 April 2011 Page 3 On 8 March 2011 , the SWDD Board also approved Staff' s recommendation to award the Phase 1 construction contract ; contractor mobilization is anticipated by 4 April 2011 . Therefore , it is necessary to proceed with the contract documents for construction of Cell 1 in order to provide the additional disposal capacity required for the County . The combined area of the 76 -acre footprint of Segment 3 Expansion represents the future disposal capacity for the County, and is comprised of eight contiguous landfill cells which are scheduled to be constructed in phases . The first phase consists of construction of Cell 1 , an area of approximately 10 acres adjacent to the eastern slope of Segment 2 . The implementation of this Project will be carried out in two phases, as follows : Phase 1 : Site preparation activities consisting primarily of earthwork for construction of the subgrade for Cell 1 and a vertical expansion access road ; the fill material will be obtained from off- site borrow sources with the actual placement and compaction to be performed by a contractor selected through the procurement process ; the SWDD Board authorized this work order on 6 July 2010 and the request for bids from contractors was advertised by the County on 9 December 2010 ; and a bid opening date of 17 February 2011 . On 8 March 2011 , the SWDD Board approved the selection of the firm of Guettler Brothers Construction LLC , of Fort Pierce for the construction of the subgrade for Cell 1 and an access road to the top of the existing Class I Landfill . Phase 2 : Construction of the Cell 1 liner and leachate control systems , and improvements to the stormwater management system and perimeter access roads, to be performed by a contractor selected through the procurement process . This proposal addresses the engineering and support services required to procure a construction contract for Phase 2 of the Project, including preparation of construction documents, engineer ' s construction cost estimate, and contractor procurement assistance . Geosyntec understands that following the preparation of the construction bid documents and cost estimate , SWDD Staff intends to request SWDD ' s Board authorization to commence the bidding process for the project . PROPOSED SCOPE OF WORK This project includes professional engineering and support services that will be performed for the procurement of a construction contract for the 10 -acre Cell 1 of Segment 3 Expansion of the Class I Landfill and the recommended improvements to the stormwater management system . The scope of work is based on the requirements of Chapter 62 -701 , Florida Administrative Code (FAC ) and Geosyntec ' s understanding of the Project based on information provided by the SWDD .
