Engineer Services. 4.01 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Article 11 or elsewhere in the Agreement, the Designers’ Engineer, as part of Article 15 – Extra Services, shall attend and record minutes of commissioning meetings and provide requested guidance and appropriate inspections of such third party commissioning services to ensure compliance with the Contract Documents. The final commissioning of all systems shall be performed prior to the project’s final inspection.
4.02 The cost of observation of the Work and site visits performed by the Engineering Consultants or Associates listed in Article 3 hereof are included in the fee for Designer’s basic services. The frequency of the observation of the Work and site visits by such Engineering Consultants or Associates shall be consistent with the size and nature of the Work and as described in Attachment A, UA Minimum Field Inspection Requirements. Observation/Inspections of the Work and site visits by such Engineering Consultants or Associates shall neither eliminate nor substitute for the Designer's minimum weekly observation of the Work as required in this Contract.
Engineer Services. The Engineer is responsible for performing engineering oversight by demonstrating and maintaining each inspector’s experience, including: training, details about previous experience (how experience was obtained, and how experience can be verified), certifications (when required), how certifications are to be maintained and continuing education of inspectors. In addition, the Engineer shall provide engineering services when specifically requested by the State. All inspectors furnished by the Engineer will be approved by the State. This does not relieve the contracting Engineer of the responsibility to assure that inspectors are fully qualified to correctly perform services being provided. The State reserves the right to verify that inspector(s) meet the minimum qualifications. The Engineer is responsible to furnish inspectors meeting or exceeding the following minimum requirements.
Engineer Services. Obtain and review of existing salient data and reports to include well logs, as-builts, geologic maps, hydrographic and geomorphic studies, soils maps, and topographic maps including preconstruction maps if available.
Engineer Services. Prepare a Draft and Final Design Criteria Document. • Coordinate documentation review and provide no more than two sets of comments to ENGINEER for incorporation at the Draft level of completion. • ENGINEER will track, respond to, and incorporate comments received, as appropriate, on the Draft Design Criteria Document. • For budgetary purposes, it is assumed that the Design Criteria Document will be a 60-page document inclusive of figures, tables, narratives, and attachments. • Electronic Copy of the Draft Design Criteria Document • Electronic Copy of the Final Design Criteria Document ENGINEER will facilitate a concept design update workshop to incorporate the recommended alternative refinements identified in previous work efforts including conclusions described in 2017 “NHC Xxxxxx Bypass Channel Design Project, Physical Modelling” and the 2017 “HDR Preliminary Design Report”, while utilizing the 2018 County “Environmental Memo” that facilitates permitting and stakeholder acceptance.). This phase of design will be used to consolidate feedback obtained in the final stages of the previous work efforts, analyze similar structures and structure failures to limit design risk, and to bring the project elements to a common understanding among the City, County, and ENGINEER design team. Identified options, changes, or refinements will be incorporated into the 30% level of design. Such refinements are anticipated to include: • Roughened channel design to pass 100-year flood with minimal but acceptable damages to the bed form and key boulder structure elements. • Attention provided to designs of the transitions downstream of xxxx and upstream of plunge pool in order to verify boulder retention over time. This will require structural measures that are complimentary to river mechanics. • Recommendations provided in the Final Alternatives Assessment noted above • Alternative fish screen and fish screen cleaning technologies that may improve reliability and lower operational and maintenance level of effort. • Orientation, seepage control, and cross-sectional variation of the roughened channel fishway. • Left bank floodplain approach channels and transitions. • Flood protection measures for Powerhouse Road and Ramblers Park levee • Sediment, fish and boat conveyance criteria over a range of flows. • Cross-connection water conveyance options which may improve water distribution functionality and cost effectiveness. • Maintenance needs and provision of access points for m...
Engineer Services. Coordinate and facilitate a 4-hour concept refinement meeting in the City of Yakima.
Engineer Services. Provide updated hydrological assessment that establishes the targeted design flows for the project including: a flow duration analysis to update the existing fish passage target flow analysis and updated seasonal low-flow analysis.
Engineer Services. Prepare and submit a 60% DDR for review by the City and County and distribution by the City.
Engineer Services. Prepare, maintain, and update a permit tracking log that will be used to track the status of relevant permits and identify the influence that regulatory schedules have on the overall project schedule.
Engineer Services. Prepare Draft and Final applications or compliance documents for Federal agency review of the permit applications for the project: • JARPA, including figures, for: ▪ U.S. Army Corps of Engineers [USACE] Clean Water Act Section 404 Discharge Authorization ▪ Ecology (Ecology administers 401 Water Quality Certification) • Water Quality Monitoring Plan (required by Ecology) • Dewatering and Fish Salvage Plan (note final dewatering to be determined by Contractor)
Engineer Services. The following Yakima County application packages (draft and final) will be prepared for review of the permit applications for the project: • Pre-Application Meeting Request • Shoreline Substantial Development Permit application (or Shoreline Exemption application, if applicable) ▪ Shoreline and critical areas application ▪ Shoreline and critical areas submittal checklist ▪ Shoreline and critical areas questionnaire ▪ Narrative Form ▪ Critical areas, shoreline, and Floodplain Submittal Checklist ▪ If project qualifies for shoreline exemption: o CAO and Shoreline Exemption form o Shoreline Exemption Bulletin • Critical Area Modification • Grading and Excavation Permit • Building/Structural Foundation Permits • City will sign all application forms as owner/applicant. • City will obtain all city-permits, including Shoreline maintenance exemption, related to installation of the replacement pipelines within city limits. • City will print all applications and direct pay all permitting and publication fees, including application fees and leasing fees, as applicable. City will provide printing and hand delivery for any required in-person intakes for permit agencies in that require hardcopy submittals. • City will handle formal submittal of all application packages – electronic and/or hard copy mail. • City will participate in all formal pre-application meetings. • Review draft submittals and provide consolidated comments. • ENGINEER’s environmental team (2 staff) and PM will attend up to two (2) meetings at City or County offices to support local permitting. One of these meetings includes the County pre- application meeting. • Yakima County Shoreline Permitting: • If all or part of the project does not qualify for exemption under RCW 90.52.147 (Shoreline Substantial Development Permit [SSDP] - exemption for projects to improve fish or wildlife habitat or fish passage), an SSDP would be required. • If SSDP, three ENGINEER team members will attend up to one (1) public hearing associated with the SSDP. • No appeals will be made under SSDP. • No other city or county permits are required outside of what is specified in this scope of work. The City of Yakima will obtain all permits related to pipeline installation within city limits. • It is anticipated that no geologic hazard areas or aquifers will be impacted (cumulatively or directly). Xxxxx completed by the ENGINEER team as part of development of the design will be of sufficient detail to address impacts, or lack the...
