Greenville, Ohio Bio: Dane is a project manager and engineer with experience in ODOT-LPA roadway and bicycle facility design, bridge design, and roundabout design, specifically in urban corridors. Prior to working at COEC, Dane designed structures and roadways for various projects under EP Ferris & Associates, Columbus, Ohio. While at EP Ferris, Dane was heavily involved in the design of projects that ranged from interstate bridge replacements and reconstructions, to roundabouts, to simple guardrail installations. Dane began his career as a Transportation Engineer with ODOT District 5 (Jacksontown, Ohio), designing bridges and learning ODOT standards and processes. Specifically, while at ODOT, Dane gained experience in ODOT pavement design, drainage design, the ODOT design and review process, and ODOT construction estimating.

More pertinent to this project, Dane is an unassuming and diligent project manager who takes pride in his designs and construction plan presentation. Dane understands that construction plans not only provide designs for the current project, but create hard-copy records displaying utilities, right-of-way, geometry, and other information to be used as a historical public record. In addition, Dane makes it a point to be available and considerate of a client’s or stakeholder’s time and is forthright and honest with potential construction complications. Dane understands the importance of communication throughout the development of a project. Weekly update emails from Dane would be sent to keep everyone abreast of the status of the project. COEC also encourages a multi-level communication structure with the City, ODOT, County, private utilities, etc., and encourages this process to allow the reviewer to speak directly with the designer versus going through the “channels” of project management and relying on information being relayed appropriately. Dane encourages communication with utility owners and stakeholders early and often to mitigate barriers to progress as much as possible, and to engage the community in the project to promote buy-in and cooperation towards the project’s success, as well as pride in their community and the finished reconstruction project. Recently, Dane managed similar projects including the reconstruction of Jefferson Street (S.R. 103), Phase 1 and Phase 2 in Bluffton, Ohio. This complete street reconstruction was partially funded through the OPWC and included meticulous construction coordination with ODOT detour routes, ODOT Urban Paving Program, right of way acquisition, and an ODOT bridge reconstruction project located at the midway point of the street reconstruction. Dane was in frequent contact with utilities, ODOT, bridge contractors, and the Village to ensure the construction schedules and bidding/award timeframes ensured a smooth construction process. Additionally, Dane was lead designer on Yellow Springs-Fairfield Road Improvements (PID: 101498) in Fairborn, Ohio. This project included removing of the existing four-foot asphalt paved shoulders and replacement with curb and gutter, improving pedestrian ADA facilities and connectivity, installing a 10-foot-wide multi-use trail, constructing dual left turn lanes at an intersection, analyzing traffic data for signal warrants, and coordinating maintenance of traffic plans with the City and local residents. Final tracings for this project were completed over a month ahead of time. Jeffrey S. Puthoff, P.E. Quality Assurance/Quality Control | The Ohio State University, 1993, BS in Civil Engineering

Bio: Jeff has gained 25+ years of practical experience through his current endeavors in roadway design, site development, utility design, and project management, as well as through his past experience working construction. All of this experience and knowledge combines into a project management style that includes working hard and knowing how to handle demanding situations and short project schedules. Jeff began his career with Worl & Associates in 1993 before co-founding COEC in 1994. Since then, Jeff has been involved in hundreds of projects ranging from simple site designs to major road widenings and reconstructions. Jeff’s particular skill with practical construction methods makes him an astute, meticulous reviewer of plans (he really enjoys wielding a giant red Sharpie). On a project such as this, Jeff will not be involved in the day-to-day design, but will step in as a “third-party” in-house review specialist to analyze the plans, estimate, and specifications from an “outside” the project’s daily design point of view. Also worth noting is Jeff’s relaxed, friendly attitude. Despite his fondness for hard work, Jeff is laidback and easy to talk to. He is straightforward, to-the-point, and always responsive. Craig C.

Project Experience
Bethany Road Widening, City of Mason, Ohio Description: This project improved Bethany Road from two to three lanes and reconstructed the roadway between Mason-Montgomery Road and the existing widened roadway west of the City corporation limits. The project length was approximately 2,900 feet. Additional improvements included the design of storm sewer, including replacing an existing culvert west of Heartwood Lane. The stream was slightly modified to adjust for the longer culvert (COEC completed necessary coordination through the US Army Corps of Engineers). Sidewalks and a multi-use path were installed as part of the project as well, and the project was coordinated with the WAR-Mason Montgomery/Bethany Road Bike Path, PID 98857 (also designed by COEC). The profile of the roadway was lowered where necessary to accommodate the widened section and curb and gutter. Relocation of existing forcemains and water mains was required due to the change in profile. COEC worked with Greater Cincinnati Water Works to coordinate the required adjustments. COEC also coordinated with Warren County Water and Sewer for the relocation of several of their utilities. COEC prepared a phasing sequence for the work with special considerations in regard to detours, access to property, and special instructions. Finally, a sight distance analysis was performed for the intersection of Bethany Road and Heartwood Lane. SR 47 Safety Improvements, Ph. I & II, PIDs & 93543 & 95244, Sidney, Ohio Description: For the City of Sidney, COEC Engineering designed improvements along State Route 47 from Wal-Mart’s west driveway to Wayfarer/Folkerth intersection in two phases. This corridor, which is a busy commercial/retail area of the City just off of Interstate-75 has an ADT of 22,000. These two projects stemmed from a Safety Study completed by ODOT District 7 in 2010, which determined this section of SR 47 to have the highest crash frequency in the City. Improvements at various intersections along the route included access management improvements, drive modifications, extension of existing lanes of travel, realignment of roadway, removal of roadway signed restrictions, signage improvements, pavement marking improvements, and installation of three new traffic signals. Two of the traffic signals were existing and were completely rebuilt; the other signal was a new signal at a safety location, as mentioned above. All of the traffic signals are now part of a coordinated traffic signal system and integrated into the system. The two existing traffic signals were converted from span wire to mast arm design, with all some of the mast arms reaching up to 60 feet. All three traffic signals use cameras for vehicle detection. Craig Eley reviewed COEC’s Phase 1 plans during design, as he was still with District 7 when the project was studied and designed.

State Route 125 and Woodlands Drive Roundabout, Village of Amelia, Ohio Description: This project involved the addition of turn lanes to S.R. 125 and a new mast arm traffic signal. The project also involved the installation of a new roadway with a roundabout. One leg continued on to a new healthcare facility and the other two legs were stubbed out for future development of the 50 acres opened up by the new roadway. The project includes the extension of public utilities (sewer, water, gas, electric, etc.), sidewalks, and highway lighting. The project, which was installed in coordination with the Clermont County Transportation Improvement District (TID), was designed in 2018 with construction in 2019. COEC provided the topographic survey, roadway, roundabout, signal, and lighting design; the Clermont County TID performed bidding and inspection. SR 55 and Fenner Road/Clopay Drive Signalization, City of Troy, Ohio Description: Because of the expansion of the Clopay manufacturing organization within the City, COEC provided a traffic study and subsequent design for the signalization of the intersection of State Route 55 (a four-lane divided highway) and Fenner Road/Clopay Drive. The intersection is a four-legged intersection, and plans were designed to ODOT and City standards. The traffic signal was designed as a span wire type and is fully-actuated with radar being used for both advance detection and stop-bar detection. The installed traffic controller was Econolite ASC/3-2100 type. The newly designed traffic signal, as well as an existing traffic signal at the intersection of SR 55 and Barnhart Road, were integrated into the existing State Route 55 coordinated signal system; the traffic signal at Barnhart Road and the proposed traffic signal at Fenner Road were interconnected via radio with the existing State Route 55 master controller. Coordinated traffic signal timings were developed and the two traffic signals were integrated into the existing signal system. The model includes the new traffic signals and the traffic signals at Arthur, Dorset, NB 75 ramp, SB 75 ramp.

Availability COEC is busy… growing! In 2019, COEC hired nine new “green shirts” including engineers, designers, and surveyors. Our past experiences and motivational eagerness to build relationships with you at the City will hopefully instill confidence in our ability to be available and responsive to your project. Furthermore, we expanded our Sidney location to increase our footprint and staff capacity. This expansion will allow our staff to continue to grow. When we are awarded a project, we make the time needed to produce something successful. At COEC, we have developed, what we believe to be, a unique method of accurately forecasting (on a weekly basis) work that will need to be done to meet or exceed project schedules on projects already under Agreement. Every Friday, Project Managers dissect project timelines and appropriate the work (in hours and cost) by month for the life of the project. A forecast of work in any given time period is maintained and posted for all employees to see. Using this forecast, COEC can estimate the capacity and availability for a potential project, as shown in the chart above.
Project Understanding & Approach Project Location and Background The project roadway construction limits are along S.R. 38 (London Avenue) from Greenwood
Boulevard to Collingwood Drive for approximately 1,300 feet. Additional sidewalk extension will continue from Collingwood Drive to Timberview Drive encompassing an additional 560 ft.
The total project budget (including engineering, surveying, and construction) is $838,100.00. The project is being funded through the OPWC (48% Match). S.R. 38 (London Avenue) has a functional classification as an Urban Major Collector. The posted speed limit for the roadway corridor is 35 MPH. ODOT TIMS lists the ADT as 5,250 vehicles for this segment of roadway. COEC roadway geometrics and storm design will follow standards set forth by the Ohio
Department of Transportation (ODOT) Location and Design Manuals, ODOT Standard Construction Drawings, City of Marysville General Notes, Specifications, and Standard Construction Drawings (as listed on the City’ website or obtained from City Engineer’s office).
COEC construction design specifications shall follow the 2019 ODOT CMS Manual and ODOT Supplemental Specifications along with ‘as per plan’ notes to meet City of Marysville construction standards.
Roadway Details The existing roadway cross section primarily entails two 11’-12’ lanes with 1’-2’ paved
shoulders and 1’ aggregate berms. As the roadway approaches Greenwood Blvd, the roadway expands to meet the 36’ wide asphalt turn-lane section with curb and gutter.
Existing 5’ wide concrete walks extend from Greenwood Blvd 150’ south (near the ends of the existing curb) approximately 5’ off the back of curb. Additional existing 5’ wide concrete walks and curb ramps are located at the intersection of Collingwood Drive and extend south on the eastern side of the roadway to the end of the first property line.

The proposed project will include the following: o Sawcutting along the existing white edge line and removing the asphalt shoulder from
Collingwood Drive to approximately 150’ south of Greenwood Blvd on both sides of the roadway.
o Installing combination curb and gutter (Std. Dwg. STR-05) along with full depth pavement construction outside of the sawcuts. The offset from centerline to the face of the gutter will create a minimum of two 12’-wide pavement lanes (11’ lane; 1’ paved shoulder) in accordance with L&D Vol. I Table 301-4. No edge lines will be re-striped in locations of curb and gutter. COEC will confirm the typical section with the City early in the design process.
o Full depth pavement construction/repairs will follow the Street Pavement Sections Std. Dwg. STR-13 pavement composition, Option A, for roadways over 1500 ADT.
o 4” underdrains will be installed beneath the curb and gutter in accordance with Std. Dwg. STR-05.
o Geotechnical borings are not mentioned in the RFP. As a result, discussions with the City will be made early in the design to determine a contingency quantity game plan to address unsuitable or unstable subgrades, i.e. geogrid or granular embankment replacement.
o S.R. 38 (London Avenue) will be milled and resurfaced (1.5” depth) from Collingwood Drive to Greenwood Blvd (1,500’ in length). Marysville Item 1540 – asphalt rejuvenating agent (reclamite) will be specified for all final pavement surface area.
o Center line, transverse lines, and turn lane pavement striping will be restriped on the project in a similar pattern as the existing striping. Pavement striping will be ODOT 644 in accordance with Note 7 of the Marysville Roadway Notes.
o On the east side of the roadway, a 5’ concrete sidewalk (with a 5’ curb lawn) will be installed on the inside of the existing utility poles. The concrete walk installation will follow Std. Dwg. STR-01. (4” concrete walk on 2” min. aggregate base).
o On the west side of the roadway, a multi-use asphalt trail will be installed from the intersection of Greenwood Blvd. to the access driveway of Timberview Golf Club. The existing 28’ to 30’ right-of-way on the west side of the roadway (along with utility poles) will dictate the curb lawn and trail width. No right-of-way acquisition is anticipated for the construction of the project.
o The asphalt trail pavement composition will be determined by previous trail pavement composition used throughout the City.
o Approximately 450’ of 5’-wide sidewalk-only construction will extend from just south of Collingwood Drive to the intersection of Timberview Drive. The offset to the face of the sidewalk will match the existing concrete walk. A lone curb ramp will be constructed at Timberview Drive to meet ADA requirements.
o For the sidewalk extension portion of the project, existing drive aprons will be reconstructed to ensure ADA cross slope requirements are met for the through route of travel for the walk.
Storm Water Details For most of the roadway corridor, existing storm water runs away from the centerline crown
of the roadway, across the shoulders and into the shallow ditches on either side of the roadway. Just prior to each driveway, where the ditch flowline gets compromised, yard drains or catch basins are present to collect ponding storm water in these locations.
On the east side of the roadway, an existing trunkline runs from 1140 London Avenue and heads north to its outlet location at the existing ditch near Greenwood Drive. As mentioned, either yard drains or catch basins are located just prior to each driveway to collect storm runoff.
On the west side of the roadway, an existing trunk line starts at the open ditch near the access drive to Timberview Golf Club and extends north to the final catch basin in the ditch
Page 12
near Greenwood Blvd. From here, it ties in with the storm system for the intersection, crosses beneath London Avenue (S.R. 38) and outlets as the existing ditch. As mentioned, either yard drains or catch basins are located just prior to each driveway to collect storm runoff.
For the sidewalk extension portion of the project, south of Collingwood, an undocumented (not shown on the GIS) existing drainage tile with yard drains runs near the location of the future sidewalk. Additional investigation will need completed to determine the tie-in and outlet location of the drainage tile for this location.
The proposed project will include the following: o For the curb and gutter roadway section, the storm water from the roadway surface will
no longer reach the ditch lines. Curb Inlet Catch Basins (Std. Dwg. STS-04 and STS-05) will be designed using the Inlet Spacing calculator from the ODOT CDSS Design Software. Inlet spacing will look to minimize the number of Curb Inlets required for the design.
o The proposed concrete walk and asphalt trail will sit above the existing surface, meaning storm water from private properties will have the ability to pond prior to each driveway location behind the walk/path. Similar to current conditions, yard drains will be installed at each low point and blind-tie into the new storm trunkline. The tie-ins will have designed fittings to ensure connectivity.
o Yard drains shall be a minimum 8” ductile iron grate with cast iron frame, manufactured by Nyloplast or an approved equal.
o Proposed storm mains will follow City of Marysville storm notes, specifically Note 2, which states storm pipe less than 12” shall be ODOT CMS 707.33 (CPSLP), and storm pipe greater than 12” shall be ODOT CMS 707.65 (Double Wall Pipe).
o To avoid storm utility crossings across the existing roadway, storm design shall look to install separate storm trunks (similar to existing conditions) on each side of the roadway, with outlet/tie-in points in the same locations as the existing. In addition, a cost savings option of installing a single storm trunk line on one side of the road will be evaluated.
o Storm sizing will follow the requirements set forth in Section 1103 and 1104 of the Location and Design Manual, Vol. 2 (two-year design for inlet spacing, 10-year design/25-year design hydraulic grade line for storm system). Storm calculations will be submitted with the 70% design submittal.
o In the project section south of Collingwood Drive, the proposed storm improvements will be limited to creating a shallow ditch/swale between the existing roadway edge and proposed concrete walk. At each drive location, a yard drain will be installed with a small (less than 12”) storm system that ties into the existing undocumented storm line.
Environmental, Right-of-Way, and Utilities The earth-disturbed area will be very near one acre. Therefore, a Notice of Intent (NOI)
permit, a Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP), and post construction BMPs MAY BE required for the project. The initial proposal DOES NOT cover the additional fee to provide the SWPPP for the project. However, this initial proposal does cover the design and submittal of the NOI and post construction BMPs if required by the EPA.
Through preliminary research completed for the project, the existing right-of-way for the roadway corridor is mostly 56’ to 60’ wide. As it reaches Greenwood Blvd., the existing right-of-way extends outwards up to 120’ wide. It is NOT anticipated permanent right-of-way takes will be required for the roadway improvement. If it is determined in the design process that right of way takes will be required, COEC will negotiate additional fees to produce right-of-way take displays and necessary deeds for the City.
It is anticipated temporary work for grading, seeding, and minor storm water improvements will be required on private property. In these locations, it is anticipated the City will garner work agreements with the private property owners for the contractor to complete work on private property.
Page 13
COEC will coordinate utility relocation with the appropriate utility owners, if necessary. This is further discussed in the Special Considerations & Potential Challenges section.
Lighting and Landscape Architecture (Tree Planting) Streetlights (poles and luminaires) for the roadway corridor will match the existing lighting just
north of the intersection of Greenwood Blvd. Streetlights will be designed to meet lighting requirements set forth in the ODOT Traffic
Engineering Manual, Section 11: Highway Lighting. It is anticipated one existing light pole and luminaire just south of the existing curb termini
location on the east side of S.R. 38 will need removed/relocated and one overhead luminaire at the intersection of Collingwood Drive will need removed.
A tree planting plan will be included in the design of the project. Proposed trees will be planted within the curb lawns of the walk and asphalt trail. The tree type and size will be determined by the City and COEC’s in-house landscape architect. It is anticipated the proposed trees will match the existing trees in the curb lawns just north of the intersection of Greenwood Blvd.
Potential Challenges & Special Considerations Maintenance of Traffic A detailed maintenance of traffic plan will be completed for the roadway improvement. Maintaining two lanes of traffic (one in each direction) for the duration of the project will be
difficult as the existing 22’-24’ wide roadway will make construction of storm and curb challenging. As a result, COEC recommends closing one lane of traffic for the portions of the project when part-width curb and storm installation is being completed.
During these times, southbound traffic can be detoured at the intersection of East 9th Street (heading east) to Chestnut Street (turn right and head south). From here, vehicles would be detoured to Scottslawn Road (heading southwest) and sent back via S.R. 736 to S.R. 38.
It is anticipated that local traffic would meander through the neighboring subdivisions to bypass the signed detour.
Northbound traffic will be maintained for the entirety of the project. COEC will coordinate the signed detour route and other maintenance of traffic procedures
with ODOT, ODOT special hauling permits office, Union County, and the City throughout the project development process.
For the mill/fill portion of the project, the maintenance of traffic will consist of notes and referencing ODOT’s standard construction drawings for these type of work procedures.
Existing Utilities It is anticipated three existing fire hydrants will need relocated or adjusted to grade during
the construction process. All three hydrants are located on the east side of S.R. 38. The existing water main, located on the east side of S.R. 38, needs located and verified with
the City. In addition, any existing as-built construction plans for the existing water main will be very helpful during the design. Proposed storm system on the eastern side of the road will need to be designed to avoid conflict with this existing line. In addition, to meet Ohio EPA requirements, the proposed storm line shall be 10’ offset out/out diameter from the existing water main.
On the west side of the roadway, an existing gas main, overhead communication lines, and underground communication lines (owned by Sprint) will need verified and located. Proposed storm trunk lines on the western side of the project will need constructed to avoid any utility conflicts.
Contact with private utility companies will be completed at each phase submittal and a documented utility coordination log will be created for the project.
Page 14
It is anticipated the overhead communication lines and utility poles will need relocated for the construction of an 8’ wide multi-use trail if a curb lawn wide enough for trees is the desired outcome of the project.
Roadway Elevation vs. Neighboring Properties Elevation Difference: As briefly mentioned, the existing profile of the roadway is not anticipated to be adjusted, as the existing asphalt shoulders are to be removed and curb constructed in place. Due to this, the proposed concrete walk and asphalt multi-use trail (in most locations) are to be constructed above the existing surface adjacent to the roadway. In locations of driveways, the proposed drives and drive aprons will need to be built with a positive grade sloping upwards towards the pedestrian facilities. COEC does not recommend sloping the driveways downward (negative) away from the curb and gutter, as storm drainage will overtop the depressed curb in these locations and drain down the driveways. To combat this discrepancy in elevation, yard drains are to be proposed at each driveway behind the walks where the grading slopes back down to meet the existing surface. In our experiences, if the yard drains are not maintained or are constructed incorrectly (too high), private property owners are typically very vocal about ponding water in their yards. An innovative solution to solving this discrepancy in elevation difference is to lower the roadway profile by reconstructing the roadway. Since there are no utility manholes or water valves within the existing pavement, a cost-efficient way to complete this complete street reconstruction is to perform full-depth pavement reclamation on the roadway. The contractor would remove the existing asphalt shoulders as originally scoped, construct the curb and gutter according to plan elevations (much lower than the existing surface), and then pulverize the existing asphalt pavement accordingly. After pulverization, the contractor would excavate out the surplus pulverized material and grade the fines to the necessary elevations and grades. Next, the contractor would add the cement stabilization for the subgrade, allow to cure, and perform asphalt paving on top of the originally pulverized material, completing the lowering of the roadway.

March 25, 2020 To: Board of Control Subject: Water Treatment Plant
Construction Management and Inspection Services The City advertised a Request for Qualifications (RFQ) on January 6, 2020 for experienced consulting firms to assist the City with the construction management and inspection for the City’s upcoming Water Treatment Plant. The proposed conventional lime soda softening plant will utilize solid contact clarification, biologically active sand filters, and secondary treatment with ozonation. Additional onsite improvements will include the construction of water distribution lines (including cathodic protection), two (2) sludge lagoons, a clear well (with high service pump room), clarifiers and typical site improvements (i.e. parking lot , storm sewer, detention basin, etc.) Per the Ohio Revised Code, the City uses a Qualification Based Selection (QBS) process for design projects that are anticipated to exceed twenty-five thousand dollars ($25,000) in value. To validate or confirm this selection process, we have provided a timeline (outlined below):
Short listing of the three (3) qualified firms – January 5, 2020 o Only two (2) firms officially submitted on this project
Request for Qualifications – January 6, 2020
Construction Management Team Interviews – February 18, 2020 Final Firm Rankings – February 27, 2020
o Shoaf Consulting was chosen as the firm to design the project
Scope and Contract Negotiations – March 19, 2020 The negotiated contract amount for the construction management and inspection for the City’s upcoming Water Treatment Plant is nine hundred forty-five thousand seven hundred fifty-nine dollars ($945,759.00). Based on the standard protocol followed for the design services, we recommend awarding the engineering design services contract to Shoaf Consulting. Respectfully, Jeremy V. Hoyt, P.E. City Engineer / Deputy Public Service Director
City of Marysville March 10, 2020 Attn: Jeremy V. Hoyt, PE City Engineer / Deputy Public Works Director 209 South Main Street Marysville, OH 43040 Subject: REVISED Proposal for Construction Management / Inspection New Water Treatment Plant, AND Proposal for Fast-Track Design / CA / Periodic Inspection of South Water Tank
Dear Mr. Hoyt: Per our recent conversations and meeting on March 5th, 2020 discussing the scope of the Construction Management and Inspection services for your upcoming water treatment plant, we present to you our revised proposal to provide these services for the longer construction project (now estimated at 28 months). The Full-Time inspection is now extended to 4,872 hours (28 months) and post-construction services (including 1-year walk through (just prior to the 1-year warranties expiration)) and as-built verification/review is now included in the proposed fee estimate. In addition, Shoaf Consulting is pleased to provide a proposal to provide comprehensive engineering services for the proposed South Elevated Storage Tank. It is my understanding that the tank would be located in the vicinity of Warner Road between Industrial Parkway and Mitchell-Dewitt Roads. While the cost of the tank is impacted by the elevation of the tank, there does not seem to be too many areas nearby that are significantly higher than the site below (not without adding more expensive water line / infrastructure). I have noted a few areas at elevation 950 feet that would save approximately $50,000 in tank cost – but the savings could be reduced by additional property acquisition costs or waterline infrastructure. MUCH more important on this project is the timeline for this project. In order to have this tank completed by the end of 2021 (September / October), it MUST be bid in the next 3 months. I have extensive experience with elevated storage tank projects, and painting cannot economically be performed in the winter months. I have included Section 3 of my Engineering Services Prequalification to give you an idea of the schedule for a 1 MG elevated storage tank. If the City decides to build a 1.5 MG tank, the schedule is increased a bit. I have my team ready to proceed and get the project ready to advertise in approximately 8 weeks (regardless of whether our contract is final or not). This is contingent on having access to the site for a geotechnical investigation (which would NOT hold up the design of the tank). In addition, while I am 100% certain that a composite elevated storage tank would by far be the most economical tank to construct (and maintain), I can provide a bid packet that bids a fluted column tank as well. Note that even CB&I has stated that a fluted column would be far more expensive on this project (estimated at $600,000 additional). However, if the project is needed

Highlight
Per our recent conversations and meeting on March 5 th, 2020 discussing the scope of the Construction Management and Inspection services for your upcoming water treatment plant, we present to you our revised proposal to provide these services for the longer construction project (now estimated at 28 months). The Full-Time inspection is now extended to 4,872 hours (28 months) and post-construction services (including 1-year walk through (just prior to the 1-year warranties expiration)) and as-built verification/review is now included in the proposed fee estimate.
by say July 2021, then the premium required for project acceleration (mainly winter work (on the composite tank)) could approach the cost of the fluted column – which can proceed during the winter. In neither tank style can painting be realistically started until about April 15th. If desired, a rendering of the three potential styles of elevated storage tanks can be provided for the City. At 1.5 MG, the waterspheroid (single pedestal) tank would likely be eliminated. The composite tank has significant advantages for a project like this one at sizes of 1 MG or above, and especially on projects where the column is very tall. In our brief discussions on the tank project last week, while keeping the overflow the same as the other tanks would make a tall tank, I would not recommend a lower tank than the current Fladt Road tank overflow (1052 ft?). While not necessarily on the critical path of the tank project, SH2OAF believes that there may be an improvement at the Fladt Road Tank that may prove beneficial to the City in the future. A low head, bi-directional pump station (less than 10 hp pumps) – likely located in the fluted column of the Fladt Road tank would allow for a small lift (10-20 ft) to the new tank, and also allow for pumping from the new tank back to the City with an automatic valve switchover. This would allow the City to more easily control the cycling of the South Tank while providing the needed boost to fill the tank to the overflow levels. With a typical head range of 40-45 feet (45 feet on the 1.5 MG tank), control like this allows the tank to drop to keep water age lower. This concept was discussed in general when ASR was considered at Glacier Ridge. As this project duration is not as long as the tank project itself, it does not need to be considered at this time and would not likely be included in this specific project. In addition, while SH2OAF can do the waterline design to this tank, the 8-weeks to advertise schedule and fee assumes that the waterline design can be performed by the City or by SH2OAF (or others) in a separate project which does not have the same time constraints. Attached is the revised estimate to do the Construction Management / Inspection Project, as well as the additional engineering (design and construction services) to complete the South Water Tank project. Note that the biggest advantage to have SH2OAF do the tank (other than the likely lower cost) would be the very aggressive schedule that only SH2OAF can promise. More importantly, at Shoaf Consulting, it is ALWAYS ABOUT THE CLIENTTM. If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to call me on my cell phone at 614-332-0217 or email me at [email protected].
