EXHIBIT A - SCOPE OF WORK <br />It is understood the COUNTY desires to construct Phase 2 of the Historic Trans Florida Rail Trail system <br />from the west side of the 1-95 Bridge approach to the City of Fellsmere city limits. The 1.4 -mile trail <br />extension will pass through the St. Sebastian River Preserve and will follow the Historic Trans -Florida <br />Railroad Route. We understand the upgraded trail will convert the trail to an asphalt paved surface <br />with several culvert crossing installations to re -connect and rehydrate existing wetlands. It is also <br />understood the multi -use trail will also provide for a safety upgrade for this area by acting as a fire <br />break for the St. Sebastian River Preserve and provide for safer egress movements for emergency <br />vehicles. <br />Through preliminary coordination with county staff and the St. Johns River Water Management District <br />(SJRWMD), it is understood the project will require environmental design and permitting and that the <br />COUNTY will contract these services separately with the selected environmental consultant. MBV will <br />coordinate, as necessary, with the selected consultant to provide all plans and documents necessary <br />for the jurisdictional permitting. All environmental design, studies, reports, and investigations will be <br />completed by the selected consultant and provided to MBV as needed for submissions to the <br />jurisdictional agencies. <br />It is understood, through meetings with SJRWMD, no stormwater design will be required other than <br />the development for the project's Erosion Control Plans. Therefore, drainage modeling and permitting <br />are not included in this Work Order. It was further understood, through coordination with SJRWMD, <br />the project environmental permitting must also -be reviewed and approved by Florida Department of <br />Environmental Protection (FDEP) under the new 404 Assumed Waters requirement. This permitting <br />will be conducted by the COUNTY's environmental consultant and MBV will assist with documents, as <br />necessary, in this coordination. <br />Project survey will be provided by the COUNTY. Survey shall be inclusive of topography, above -ground <br />infrastructure, any utility and underground infrastructure, wetland or preserve area(s) flagging, that <br />may be required for design in the influence area of the proposed project limits. All vertical and <br />horizontal locations shall be the responsibility of the COUNTY, or COUNTY's designated consultant, and <br />provided to MBV for use in the proposed design plans. MBV shall coordinate and work with COUNTY, <br />as, needed, on the necessary plan coordination for the existing conditions information. Furthermore, it <br />is understood that IRC will coordinate with the Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) during <br />the project and that MBV will assist and provide all necessary design documentation, as needed, to <br />support the coordination. <br />The CONSULTANT proposes to provide the COUNTY with the necessary design plans and engineering <br />to complete the below detailed scope of work. associated with the roadway safety improvements <br />project and as further described below. <br />
