Engineering and Environmental Scoping Analysis Objective Sample Clauses

Engineering and Environmental Scoping Analysis Objective. Develop high-level conceptual scoping report to support corridor sequencing. Identify segments where additional capacity is needed. Identify a bridge replacement or bridge deck replacement project between each interchange along the corridors. Develop high-level scoping and costing reports on a per mile basis to support the Strategic Plan. Determine up to 20 key areas in which right-of-way may be required, or other unique physical (e.g., I-65 & SR 46 Interchange in Columbus) or environmental (e.g., extensive wooded wetland areas in the existing interstate median) elements would impact the typical cost and/or schedule. • Engineering and Environmental Scoping Report (one per each of 6 corridors) The CONSULTANT will perform the following activities: • Document the methodology and results of the engineering and environmental scoping analysis for the Strategic Plan. • Evaluate the need for adding capacity on the corridors. Note if bridges or roadway segments require widening. • Identify all segments of I-65 and I-70 that are currently 3 lanes in each direction. • Compile existing bridge inspection reports, condition data, and work recommendations from INDOT’s bridge management system for each bridge. • Based on existing information provided by INDOT, identify one bridge between each set of interchanges that requires either a full deck replacement or complete bridge replacement. • Develop planning-level cost estimates (e.g., cost per square foot, cost per mile) for potential bridge structure and roadway improvements. • Gather existing and secondary source GIS information to complete a GIS screening focused on socioeconomic and environmental factors. GIS data considered will include unique streams/rivers, managed lands, Section 6(f) properties, karst, historic resources (State Historic Architectural and Archaeological Research Database), and demographic data (via U.S. Census American Community Survey) to identify low-income and/or minority populations of concern. • Gather and review costs from existing project intent reports. • Flag key design areas (up to 20) along the corridors that will require more than the typical median wide widening. o Areas/Interchanges that may require additional right-of-way o Areas that have complex design or environmental elements • Determine planning level cost per mile for the typical widening segments. • Determine planning level costs for each of up to 20 key design areas. • Assess contractor and designer capacity and INDOT program ...

  • Sampling and Analysis The Seller has sole responsibility for quality control of the coal and shall forward its “as loaded” quality to the Buyer as soon as possible. The sampling and analysis of the coal delivered hereunder shall be performed by Buyer and the results thereof shall be accepted and used for the quality and characteristics of the coal delivered under this Agreement. All analyses shall be made in Buyer’s laboratory at Buyer’s expense in accordance with ASTM standards where applicable, or using standards mutually acceptable to both parties. Samples for analyses shall be taken by any ASTM standards or standards mutually acceptable to both parties, and may be composited and shall be taken with a frequency and regularity sufficient to provide reasonably accurate representative samples of the deliveries made hereunder. Seller represents that it is familiar with Buyer’s sampling and analysis practices, and finds them to be acceptable. Buyer shall notify Seller in writing of any significant changes in Buyer’s sampling and analysis practices. Any such changes in Buyer’s sampling and analysis practices shall, except for ASTM or mutually agreeable changes in practices, provide for no less accuracy than the sampling and analysis practices existing at the time of the execution of this Agreement, unless the Parties otherwise mutually agree. (1) part shall be used for analysis by Buyer; one (l) part shall be used by Buyer as a check sample, if Buyer in its sole judgment determines it is necessary; one (1) part shall be retained by Buyer (LG&E) until the twenty-fifth (25th) of the month following the month of unloading (the “LG&E Disposal Date”) or Buyer (KU) until thirty (30) days after the sample is taken (the “KU Disposal Date”), the LG&E Disposal Date and the KU Disposal Date are collectively the “Disposal Date”), and shall be delivered to Seller for analysis if Seller so requests before the Disposal Date; and one part (“Referee Sample”) shall be retained by Buyer until the Disposal Date. Seller shall be given copies of all analyses made by Buyer by the tenth (10th) business day of the month following the month of unloading. Seller, on reasonable notice to Buyer shall have the right to have a representative present to observe the sampling and analyses performed by Buyer. Unless Seller requests a Referee Sample analysis before the Disposal Date, Buyer’s analysis shall be used to determine the quality of the coal delivered hereunder. The Monthly Weighted Averages shall be determined by utilizing the individual shipment analyses. If any dispute arises before the Disposal Date, the Referee Sample retained by Buyer shall be submitted for analysis to an independent commercial testing laboratory (“Independent Lab”) mutually chosen by Buyer and Seller. For each coal quality specification in question, a dispute shall be deemed not to exist and Buyer’s analysis shall prevail and the analysis of the Independent Lab shall be disregarded if the analysis of the Independent Lab differs from the analysis of Buyer by an amount equal to or less than: (i) 0.50% moisture (ii) 0.50% ash on a dry basis (iii) 100 Btu/lb. on a dry basis (iv) 0.10% sulfur on a dry basis. For each coal quality specification in question, if the analysis of the Independent Lab differs from the analysis of Buyer by an amount more than the amounts listed above, then the analysis of the Independent Lab shall prevail and Buyer’s analysis shall be disregarded. The cost of the analysis made by the Independent Lab shall be borne by Seller to the extent that Buyer’s analysis prevails and by Buyer to the extent that the analysis of the Independent Lab prevails.
