7.1.A. - Page 2 survey will also detail the locations of above ground structures. This information will be utilized during the design stage to determine the depths and alignments of the proposed water mains and avoid conflicts with existing utilities during construction. In addition to Priority -2 pipeline information, this contract would also include a survey related to the continued development of the Recycled Water Project. Staff is beginning the design and construction of Phase 2 of the Recycled Water Project starting with Phase 2A — Walnut Street Recycled Water Transmission Main Extension. This proposed recycled water transmission main will be extended under US 101 at Walnut Street to Marshall Street. This extension will serve the growing needs of recycled water customers west of highway 101. Potential customers include Kaiser Hospital, developments in the Downtown area, and the new Stanford in Redwood City Campus. This street and utilities survey will be the first step in the design of the recycled water system in this area. ANALYSIS Staff received proposals for survey from MacLeod and Associates, Inc., SANDIS Engineers and BKF Engineers. Staff recommends that MacLeod and Associates, Inc. provide survey data for these areas. MacLeod and Associates, Inc. have demonstrated that they have the necessary qualifications and experience, as they have performed similar surveys for the City in the past. In an effort to deliver the most cost effective projects, staff plans to hire MacLeod and Associates, Inc. to field survey many of the priority -two potable water pipeline replacement areas in one year. The survey data will be used to design "priority -two" water main CIP projects to be constructed in the upcoming years. The pipeline designs and construction management will be performed by staff. Similarly, MacLeod and Associates will also perform the topographic survey for the Recycled Water Project Phase 2A. As indicated, MacLeod and Associates, Inc. will complete the survey of all the areas in 2014 -2015. The anticipated time for completion is 115 days from commencement of surveying activities. Construction of individual projects will be subject to available funding over the course of five years. The first construction packages are currently planned for summer of 2015. ALTERNATIVES Council may choose not to approve the proposed agreement with MacLeod and Associates, Inc. and direct staff to find alternate means of completing the work, or modify the scope of work, or select other consultants.
