REV: 11-19-25 LR o. Contractor layout and work area p. Quantity take offs and prepare probable estimate of cost of construction b.Task 11.b Utility Research and Coordination as part of the 30% design process, sub-consultant, BKF, will identify and illustrate existing utilities that are anticipated to conflict with the proposed flood mitigation improvements. Building upon the data developed under Task 2 and 3, BKF will review existing utility information to identify and map additional facilities and determine any data gaps. This will include a review of available utility record drawings, field observations, and coordination with the City’s project manager and City staff to compile the most accurate information available. To supplement this effort, BKF will contact USA North 811 to obtain a list and contact information for all utility providers within the area of proposed improvement. The Consultant and team to prepare Utility ‘A’ Letters and format them using City letterhead, request record drawings, block maps, inspection reports from past construction activities (such as installation or repair), and documentation of any prior rights associated with the utilities. Once responses are received, the utility data will be compiled and documented in Computer-Aided Design Development (CADD) for incorporation into the project base mapping. Subsequently, Utility ‘B’ Letters will be sent to the utility agencies for verification and confirmation of the accuracy of the utility features shown on the plans. The Consultant and team to highlight utilities that could be potentially in conflict on the design drawings, and to develop preliminary relocation plans as needed to facilitate construction. The Consultant and team will proactively engage with affected utility providers early in the design phase to verify the location and ownership of existing infrastructure, discuss potential relocation or protection strategies, and understand their specific design and permitting requirements. All correspondence and coordination efforts will be documented by the Consultant and team to support permitting, reduce risk during construction, and help avoid unforeseen delays or costs related to utility conflicts. Sub-consultant BKF will maintain a comprehensive utility inventory within the project limits and evaluate the disposition of each utility, whether limits and evaluate the disposition of each utility, whether it will be protected in place, adjusted, relocated, or removed/abandoned. This information will be tracked in a Utility Response Matrix, which will be regularly updated throughout the design process. Early and proactive utility coordination will help mitigate potential conflicts, reduce risks during construction, and ensure that all agency requirements are clearly documented and addressed. For budgeting purposes, it will be assumed by the Consultant and team the relocation of up to five (5) utilities. ATTY/AGR.2025.317/Wood Rodgers, Inc. (Page 27 of 77)
