At the Little Thompson River and Big Hollow crossings, the survey will widen to be 300 feet each side of the roadway centerline. The survey along WCR 5 will extend 1000 ft. south of the intersection with WCR 40 'A • Farnsworth Group will perform research typically required for determination of existing rights of way for WCR 40.5, WCR 5 and SH 56 within the limits of the project. For purposes of this proposal, it is assumed that no additional right of way acquisition is anticipated. • We will perform field surveys to locate aliquot land corners and other major boundary corners required to establish the existing rights of way in the project area. The rights of way will be established sufficient to provide a seal and signature by the licensed land surveyor in charge of this project. We are aware of several "double" corners within the project area, as noted above, that will require additional effort to resolve, and have included an estimated budget allocation for this additional effort. • Establish horizontal and vertical project control based upon the CDOT HARN 83/92 Network. The control information will be noted on the survey drawings with their description, coordinated and elevations. We will coordinate the specific number and placement of construction control points with Weld County prior to their establishment. • Aerial Mapping —We propose to use the photogrammetric mapping firm of Benchmark Mapping Services Inc. as our sub consultant for this project. The aerial mapping will be low altitude, final design level accuracy with a map output scale of 1" = 40 ft. with one foot contour intervals. The limits of the mapping will be as noted above for the project limits. A digital ortho photo will also be provided, with a pixel resolution of approximately 0.2 - 0.3 ft. that will cover the entire mapping area. • Set approximately 19 aerial photo control points and tie into the control network. • Perform supplemental design surveys as necessary to supplement the aerial mapping, along with related office support for obtaining miscellaneous data needed for completing the design services. This data will be merged into the overall drawing. WCR 40.5 & WCR 5, WCR 3 to SH 56 Page 2 of 3 July 19, 2004 • Traffic control on SH 56 for surveying operations will be provided, as required by CDOT and deemed necessary for the safety of survey crews. We have included an estimated budget for this effort, subject to further requirements by CDOT identified at the time we obtain a permit to survey within the CDOT ROW. • Provide coordination with Client. Our proposed fees include 6 hours of meeting time. • Utility information will be researched at the respective public utility agencies, and field verified where possible, within the limits of the survey. Rim elevations on all exposed manholes and valves will be obtained in addition to invert and pipe sizes confirmed to the best of our ability for culvert, irrigation, storm and sanitary lines, if any, without entry into manholes. Underground utility lines for which no surface evidence exists and for which reliable map information is unavailable will not be shown, if not marked by utility agencies. • This scope of work does not include the coordination with the Utility Notification Center to have underground utilities marked. It is our understanding that Weld County shall coordinate and arrange to have these utility lines marked. This scope of work includes the coordination with the County regarding the utility markings and the survey of marked utilities within the right of way, if marked at the time of field surveys. • Prepare final drawings at a scale of 1" = 40'. The Survey Control Diagram/Map drawing will be set up similar to the Colorado Department of Transportation right of way plan requirements but will not be completely in compliance with all their requirements. The plans will consist of Title Sheet, Survey Control Diagram/Map, Plan Sheet Index, Plan Sheets and Ownership Map. • Prepare permission to enter forms, and process to obtain access permission on private property. This effort will be coordinated closely with Weld County. It is our understanding that the County will provide an independent mailing introducing the project to landowners prior to this second mailing to obtain written access permission. Deliverables: The deliverable for this project will be one set of paper plots and a diskette with the electronic copy of the survey information, in AutoCAD format based upon the Farnsworth Group Layering System. In addition, we will provide a file with Farnsworth's CAD standards for surveying that will have the layers, line types, symbols, etc. that are used by our surveying sections. Schedule: We shall commence our fieldwork for the aerial mapping portion within one week of notice to proceed and shall complete the aerial mapping portion within approximately four weeks after notice to proceed. The final drawings should be completed within 6 to 8 weeks after notice to proceed. We will submit preliminary drawings of the survey on an ongoing basis so that design services may proceed as soon as possible. This schedule assumes that access permission an be obtained within one week for those properties requiring access for setting photo control panel points. WCR 40.5 & WCR 5, WCR 3 to SH 56 Page 3 of 3 July 19, 2004 Proposed Fee: Farnsworth Group will perform the above-noted Services on an hourly basis not to exceed $43,200, to be billed in accordance with our Weld County Approved Rate Schedule. A more detailed breakdown of estimated maximum fees is provided on the Project Budget Worksheet, attached hereto for reference. PLEASE NOTE - The proposed maximum fee includes approximately $7,500 of additional time associated with attempts at resolution of conflicting land corner monunentation discrepancies. Note: The proposed scope of work does not include re-setting section corners, one-quarter corners and one-sixteenth corners or replacing those corners, if necessary to comply with State Board of Registration monumentation rules. If those services are required, you will be notified immediately and the fee estimate revised accordingly. This proposal assumes that average survey/boundary conditions exist in the area to be surveyed. It is not uncommon to have conflicting monumentation and/or lines of title. These are normally "worked out" during the process of the survey if not excessive. Occasionally major conflicts and/or discrepancies exist that require time and effort beyond "average survey/boundary conditions". If this occurs, you will be immediately notified, the problems discussed, and an appropriate course of action determined (with the owner's input) to complete the survey.
