Clerk of Commission Cover Memo Item # 4 Engineering Services Committee Meeting 12/10/2007 1:30 PM Approve funding for relocation and updating of water mains and sanitary sewer mains in the area of Georgia DOT St. Sebastian Way project DE000-00MS-00(389) Department: Augusta Utilities Department caption2: Approve funding for relocation of watermains and sanitary sewer lines to be placed under new pavement in the area of construction. Background: The existing water mains are cast iron and some date back more than 80 years. The sanitary sewer mains in some areas are vitrified clay. Both materials have served well beyond their expected lifespan and will require replacement in the future. At the time GDOT is removing existing pavement and widening roadways is the opportune time to update the water and sanitary sewer mains in the area. Analysis: The age of the existing pipelines, combined with the nature of full-depth roadway construction, will most certainly require replacement of the existing pipelines. Financial Impact: The cost estimate for this project is $813,755.00. These funds are available from the following accounts: 507043410- 5425110/80700070-5425110 Alternatives: 1.

Background: The PKP Board has been endeavoring for a number of years to develop a Master Plan for future enhancements to the features already existing in the park. The Master Plan will involve documenting and assessing existing features, reviewing the goals of Augusta and the PKP Board and developing a conceptual long range path forward to make that vision a reality. Having a plan and vision in place will help the Board to pursue grants and private contributions that supplement Augusta’s financial commitment to the park. Analysis: Staff, along with the PKP Board met on November 29, 2007 to evaluate the proposals submitted by Davis Design Group and Johnson Laschober and Associates, both of Augusta. The firms were scored based on the criteria requested in the RFP. Davis Design Group was the highest score prior to opening the pricing component of the proposal. The difference in pricing was not sufficient to change the scoring based on the balance between qualifications and price. Financial Impact: The contract amount will not exceed $43,600. Funds are available in Capital account #272-06-1496. Alternatives: 1.

Clerk of Commission Cover Memo Item # 7 Engineering Services Committee Meeting 12/10/2007 1:30 PM Award Change Order for Department of Transportation I-520/I-20 Interchange project. GDOT Project #NH-IM-520-1(15) Department: Augusta Utilities Department caption2: Approve award for changes in estimated cost in the amount of $237,264.00 to Georgia Department of Transportation in order to incorporate changes in material costs between estimate and award of final bid. Background: The I-520/I-20 interchange project requires the relocation and upgrade of more than 10,000 linear feet of water lines of various sizes. In addition, we will need to relocate 460 linear feet of sanitary sewer lines with six new manholes. There are 80 manholes which will require grade changes in order to be accessible for future maintenance. Analysis: Based on AUD's analysis of current material costs and labor charges, the cost change is in line with current standards. The lines must be moved in order to gain access for future developemnt and to replace with higher quality materials than were available when some of the lines were originally installed. Financial Impact: The change order for this project $237,264.00. These funds are available from the following accounts: 5070434105425110/802102-5425110 Alternatives: 1.

(JLA) in order to incorporate changes in design requirements to the Highway 56 24-inch Water Main Extension at the construction stage. Background: The Highway 56 24-inch Water Main Extension project involves the design of 11,250 linear feet of 24-inch diameter ductile iron pipe located along the east side of Highway 56 from south of Interstate 520 interchange (at T's Restuarant) to intersection of Tobacco Rd. The design will allow the Augusta Utilities Department to supply surface water from the new N. Max Hicks Tobacco Road Water Treatment Plant into areas primarily served by the existing ground water system. During the construction effort, JLA was tasked additional Services During Construction above what has been originally tasked. Part of this is the redesign of two main sections of this 24-inch Water Main Extension. Analysis: Based on inability of the current contractor to install the section of line at Butler Creek and Marvin Griffin Road, JLA is tasked to provide alternate designs for these two sections of line. This requires additional survey effort and permitting effort aside from additional engineering design effort. JLA submitted an acceptable proposal for additional design fees to modify the current 100% plans. The staff of the utilities department has reviewed the proposal and recommend award of the additional design fees. Financial Impact: The change order for this project $36,900.00.

A-12 June 2007 Item # 9 Engineering Services Committee Meeting 12/10/2007 1:30 PM Award Change Order to Gordon Highway 30-inch Water Main Design Contract for Augusta Utilities Department Department: Augusta Utilities Department caption2: Approve award for Additional Design Services in the amount of $55,472.00 to Williams-Russell and Johnson (WRJ) in order to incorporate changes in design requirements to the Gordon Highway 30-inch Transmission Water Main at the 30% stage of design. Background: The Gordon Highway 30-inch Transmission Water Main project involves the design of 6,330 linear feet of 30-inch diameter ductile iron pipe along Gordon Highway. This line is to connect to the proposed 36-inch watermain (which ends approximately 1,000 Linear feet west of the Barton Chapel Rd intersection) and end at the proposed 24-inch Water Main. The design of this transmission main will allow the Augusta Utilities Department to supply surface water from the Highland Avenue Water Treatment Plant into Fort Gordon and the west area of Richmond County. Analysis: AUD is unable to obtain the necessary easements for the original proposed route South of Gordon Highway. Therefore, WRJ was tasked to perform resurvey work for redesign of the transmission line North of Gordon Highway. During the 1st redesign effort WRJ encountered large tracts of wetland area requiring additional resurvey and redisgn effort. WRJ submitted an acceptable proposal for additional design fees to modify plans which are currently at the 30% design phase. The staff of the utilities department has reviewed the proposal and recommend award of the additional design fees. Financial Impact: The change order for this project $55,472.00. Alternatives: 1. Reject WRJ Proposal, which would delay the design of the Cover Memo Item # 10 project and the construction of the water main extension. 2. Approve WRJ Proposal for Additional Engineering Design Fee to complete the design of the two waterline projects. Recommendation: It is recommended to award the Additional Design Fee to WRJ. in the amount of $55,472.00 Funds are Available in the 511043410-5212115/80210152-5212115 Following Accounts: REVIEWED AND APPROVED BY: Finance. Procurement. Administrator. Clerk of Commission Cover Memo Item # 10 Attachment number 1 Page 1 of 3 November 8, 2007 Augusta Utilities Department 360 Bay Street Augusta, Georgia 30901 Attn: Justo Chacon Re: Revision #2 to Contract for Gordon Highway 30 inch Water Main Extension – Project #10152 Mr. Chacon As you are aware, the original scope of services for Project 10152, “Gordon Highway 30 inch water main extension” has been revised to incorporate two route changes. Originally, the line was planned for the south side of Gordon Highway. Due to problems with obtaining ownership of properties on the south side of the road, the route was moved to the north side of the highway. The first proposal amendment reflected costs arising as a result of this initial change. The majority of the cost, 95%, was reflected in additional survey. The survey for the first amendment began at Station 28+50.00 from the 36” water main’s 36”X30” reducer and 30” butterfly valve and terminated with a 30”X24” reducer and 24” butterfly valve around Station 4+50.00 to connect to the 24” water main via a 24”tee, in Augusta-Richmond County, GA. The 36”X30” reducer and 30” butterfly valve was to be provided by the 36” water main’s design team and the 24” tee will be provided by the 24” water main’s design team. WRJ, Inc. was to show a 30”X24” reducer and 24” butterfly valve for the 24” water main to connect to. This survey was performed by, STAR SURVEY, Inc. Subsequent to this work, it was found that the line as surveyed by Star, Inc. ran through a wetlands area and some parts of it were deemed non-constructible. After meetings with Georgia Power to establish a new route, the team determined that in order to miss areas defined as wetlands and improve chances for getting the line permitted under current state regulations, segments of the would be relocated. This proposal presents costs to be incurred for relocation the line. These costs include: 1) additional survey costs, 2) additional design engineering costs, 3) additional geotechnical and environmental resource work, and 4) additional other direct costs. 1. Additional Survey The original survey done for this project on the South side of Gordon Highway was provided by Ronnie Cook Surveying (HSC, Inc) totaled $15,685.00. The route was later changed to the north side of Gordon Road and the survey was performed by Star Surveying for a cost of $18,250.00. When the team decided to re-route the line to miss wetlands areas, the additional cost for surveying is $11,500. This work includes approximately 800 feet of new line to be surveyed. Please note that we still have $2,000 available in the original contract for plat preparation that was to be used by Star Surveying, Inc. We anticipated another 3 plats would be needed in Amendment 1, for a total of 7 plats for the project. Item # 10 Attachment number 1 Page 2 of 3 2. Additional Engineering Design Costs The original design work was estimated based on 6,330 linear feet of line. The redesign adds approximately 13% more length to the overall project. The engineer had submitted the 30% design before the routes was changed in October and utilized a portion of the available funds for design. Some of that design will be usable; however, a large portion is not. We estimate and additional $15,092 will be required to complete the design, above the original design cost. 3. Additional Geotechnical and Environmental Resource The original cost for geotechnical work was $5,500.00. In addition to providing geotechnical services, Qore will also provide environmental resource services for the project as well. Qore met with the team and determined that it was too costly provide a drill rig along the route. The company was familiar with the geology in the area and was willing to provide a geotechnical report in absence of detailed drilling information that would serve as a basis for soil classification in the area of the line. Additionally, Qore will provide wetlands delineation services ($2,000.00), nationwide permit application services ($2,500.00), U.S. Army Corps of Engineers onsite verification meeting ($800.00), preliminary cultural resource survey ($300.00), and a preliminary protected species survey ($400.00). The original budget for geotechnical work ($5,500) has not been exhausted and $1,620.00 remains. Therefore this proposal seeks an additional $4,380.00 for the environment resource work and any additional geotechnical services. 4. Additional Other Direct Costs An additional $2,000.00 in other direct costs has been estimated for travel budgets, meetings with contractors and site visits.

Background: On May 15, 2007 the Commission approved funds in the amount of $500,000 for the purpose of installing the Davidson ATV into the city’s fire hydrants in order to protect the water supply from outside threats. The agenda item also approved of the creation of two additional positions that would be dedicated to this effort. At the time of the Commission approval the Construction & Maintenance staff of AUD was operating at 80 – 85% of being fully staffed. It was anticipated that this percentage would increase by years end and that the additional two positions would be utilized so as to not burden the remainder of the staff with the fire hydrant installations. However, the staffing condition remains the same and AUD is not in the position to install the ATV devices as needed to remain on schedule to protect all of the systems fire hydrants. With concurrence from the Administrator, AUD, tasked Davidson ATV with the retrofitting of approximately 180 hydrants through the end of this year and a cost of $18,900. This work allowed AUD to stay on schedule with the installation of the ATV into the hydrants. The additional funding currently being requested will allow for the retrofit of 730 hydrants through 2008. This will allow AUD to stay on track with the commitment to retrofit all of the hydrants within six years. Analysis: The additional funding currently being requested will allow for the retrofit of 730 hydrants through 2008. This will allow AUD to stay on track with the commitment to retrofit all of the hydrants within six years.

Background: During the construction of the Main Interceptor, the water line on was not redesigned, and was in conflict with the new sewer. Because of this, water service to a significant service area would be impacted. The extent of this impact was not immediately clear during design. Because AUD is planning to replace this section of line, it was determined to move ahead with an emergency replacement of the existing line. Blair was selected because of the daily rate program. They were tasked with replacing the 12” line with a 16” line on a daily contracted rate based on the bid of that service. In addition, Blair secured materials at a lesser rate than AUD could procure. This was determined to be an emergency due to the number of residents and businesses affected by the outage. The contractor on the Main Interceptor offered a competitive price approximately 1.5 times this fee. Analysis: This was deemed an emergency line replacement. Procurement was notified because of the emergency nature. Replacing this line saves money in the long run because overlay costs are not spread across two contracts. In addition, service is improved for residents and businesses in South Augusta. Financial Impact: $420,000.00 from account 50704340-5425110/80600040- 5425110 Alternatives: None.
