0 inframap 4. CAD - The survey data will be processed into an existing utility file in AutoCAD format in accordance with applicable CAD standards. Quality Levels will be annotated in accordance with ASCE 38. 5. Quality Assurance / Quality Control Review - The existing utility file will be compared to record drawings, field sketches and notes. The intent of this task is to ensure existing utilities are depicted thoroughly and accurately. 6. Deliverables - Deliverables will include an existing utility file in AutoCAD (dwg). Quality Level A - Air Vacuum Excavation Test Holes During utility locating by air / vacuum test holes InfraMap will complete the following tasks: 1. Agency Coordination - InfraMap will comply with laws and regulations concerning excavation by coordinating with utility inspectors, property owners, "ONE CALL" and others as required. 2. Anticipated Permits - InfraMap will prepare and coordinate throughout the permitting process and will bill the associated fees as a direct expense. 3. Test hole conflict identification and field locate -If InfraMap has not performed the utility designating prior to the test hole task, and we identify a discrepancy between existing utility location on client provided plans and what is in the field, we will notify the Client prior to any test hole work. We will make recommendations if utilities are not where the records maps indicate, or a utility is discovered that is not shown on any records and is not detectable during the electronic sweep. InfraMap will contact the client and discuss strategies to address the unpredictable field conditions. InfraMap will work with the client in the identification of additional test holes or removal of test holes from future scope of work. 4. MOT - Maintenance and Protection of Traffic in local jurisdiction will be provided in accordance with the Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) FY2023-24 Standard Plans, latest edition or other applicable requirements. 5. Test hole - InfraMap will perform the following for the test hole task: a. Excavate a test hole using air/ vacuum excavation. Provide all precautions necessary to perform the work safely and to cause no damage to the utility. The test hole will be of the minimum size required to expose the utility and record the following information: i. Depth below grade (cover). ii. Utility material, shape, and overall condition. iii. Approximate diameter of pipes, cables, conduits, and the configuration of multiple conduit systems. iv. The general directional trend of the utility. v. Thickness, type, and condition of paving material. vi. General soil conditions. b. Install a survey marker (PK or hub and tack) directly over the centerline of pipes or edge of concrete structures or conduit banks at grade. Ribbon of appropriate APWA / ULCC color will be installed in the backfill from utility to grade. Indicate on the test hole form the placement of the marker relative to the utility cross section. Record the location of the marker with a minimum of three swing tie measurements to convenient existing permanent structures on site. c. Backfill test hole with excavated material in 6 -inch lifts by air pneumatic tamping. Restore test hole area to the original condition. Repair and restore all pavement cuts to ensure a long-lasting repair utilizing asphalt cold patch.
