Work Order#14—Bowman Consulting Group IRCDUS 24-inch Forcemain Replacement EXHIBIT A—SCOPE OF WORK Bowman Consulting Group (Bowman) will provide professional services to Indian River County Dept of Utility Services (Utilities) to replace a segment of 24" ductile iron forcemain between the North County Wastewater Treatment Facility (NCWWTF) site and Old Dixie Highway. During a recent repair the subject main was found to be significantly corroded. Excavation and visual inspection of other locations along that segment of main revealed similar distress. The likelihood that the pipe will fail again is high. Utilities has therefore requested that Bowman prepare an engineering design to replace this high-value asset. Bowman proposes to provide the following services: Task 1—Special Purpose Survey along the Forcemain Alignment Bowman will prepare a Limited Topographic and Tree Survey in accordance with the Standards of Practice for Surveys set forth in Chapter 5J-17.051 of the Florida Administrative Code and to the Indian River County Standards. 1. Location of the existing force main (marked by the client) from the aeration tank Northerly and Easterly to the Easterly side of Old Dixie Highway then +1- 100 feet Northerly and Southerly along Old Dixie as approximated on Exhibit"A" (Included). 2. Collect ground elevations within 20 feet each side of the force main. 3. Collect topographic data around the aeration tank. 4. Set a minimum of 2 survey control points. 5. Locate existing boundary corners to verify the East property line. 6. Locate Gopher Tortoise holes that have been designated by others. 7. Prepare a certified Topographic Survey drawing. Survey data will be presented on a copy of the site boundary as provided by the County. All work performed under this task order shall be under the direction of a Professional Surveyor and Mapper registered in the State of Florida in accordance with Chapter 472 of the Florida Statutes. Task 2—Tortoise Survey&Relocation Permitting Bowman will provide a gopher tortoise survey of 100% of on-site suitable tortoise habitat. The survey will determine the number and location of the tortoises in the work area. A gopher tortoise relocation application will then be prepared for submittal to Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC). *Note:the professional fee for this task does not include the FWC application fee, which is based on the resident tortoise population. If necessary, Bowman will discuss fees for relocation following the tortoise survey. Task 3—Subsurface Soils Exploration Bowman will provide a subsurface soils exploration to support the engineering design. The exploration will consist of four(4) borings to a depth of 15'along existing forcemain alignment. A geotechnical report will be provided to include bore logs, soil classification,thickness of soil layers, number of blows per foot(N Value),and groundwater depth. Deliverables • Geotechnical Report.
