RFQ - Storm Sewer District 124 - Polaris Park Watershed

The general scope of work is as follows: 1. Preliminary Design Engineering a. Obtain as-built information from City records. b. Review the City's Storm Water Management Plan for Polaris Park watershed. c. Review potential to phase watershed improvements over time. d. Perform preliminary surveys of above ground and below ground infrastructure. e. Perform geotechnical exploration of the design area to determine utility constructability. f. Determine drainage boundary limits and construction boundary limits. g. Perform property appraisals for land needed for temporary construction easements and any permanent easements. h. Obtain temporary and permanent easements needed to construct the project. i. Review existing hydraulic model for the watershed. Make refinements if needed. j. Obtain all necessary permits for construction, if any. It is anticipated that permits will be needed from USACE, NDDOT, and potentially DWR. k. Coordinate scope of work with Minot International Airport staff and consulting engineer. Obtain any necessary approvals, permits, and incorporate safety plan into the design. l. Aid city staff in developing the engineer's report and assessment rolls to create the assessment district. m. Conduct public meeting and prepare materials to display to the public. n. Produce rain on grid inundation mapping in video format for display at public input meetings. o. Provide City with final electronic model of the system. 2. Design Engineering a. Design storm sewer improvements per City Storm Water Design Standards Manual. b. Design open channels with necessary channel armoring and erosion control. c. Determine water and sewer utility impacts and design solutions. d. Design plans and specifications to meet requirements of Minot International Airport and FAA when working on airport property. e. Design improvements in NDDOT right of way to meet any NDDOT requirements. 3. Construction Engineering, Surveying, and As-builts a. Engineer shall provide a resident project representative (RPR) when construction is taking place. RPR shall document all construction activities, witness all testing, document quantities and prepare pay estimates, process change orders, participate in meetings, and other typical duties. b. Engineer shall provide project surveying needs which include preliminary, construction, and as-built surveying. c. Engineer shall perform or sub-consult material testing in compliance with City of Minot specifications. d. Engineer shall submit survey quality as-builts consistent with the City of Minot record plan policy. All as-builts must be CAD drafted and submitted electronically in dwg, pdf, and one 11x17 paper copy. e. All as-built utility information must also be submitted in GIS format to be incorporated into the City's GIS. As-builts must be submitted within three months of substantial completion. f. Consultant will deliver to the City a full working storm sewer model in as-built conditions. Project Management a. Engineer shall designate a project manager for management duties throughout the contract period. Manager shall oversee the design, plan production QA/QC, bidding and award, shop drawing approval, construction administration, and project closeout. 5. Project Submittals a. Engineer shall submit preliminary engineering report that details hydraulic model, drainage boundary, alternative analysis, property impacts, potential construction phasing, and estimated construction costs. b. Engineer shall submit 50% plans for review and comment. c. Engineer will address the comments from the 50% review and produce 90% plan, specification, and estimate sets for review by the City. d. Engineer will produce final bid documents for advertising. e. Engineer will produce final records and documents for this project and submit any requested information to the applicable funding agencies. All costs associated with preparation and submittal of qualifications shall be borne by the submitting firm. The Minot City Council reserves the right to reject any and all proposals.
