Subsurface Utility Engineering (SUE) Clause Samples

Subsurface Utility Engineering (SUE). CONSULTANT will provide SUE services for the project as follows.

Subsurface Utility Engineering (SUE). The Design Professional, through its consultant engineers, shall perform subsurface mapping and assessing of existing utilities at appropriate quality levels and shall coordinate the design and relocation of such utilities as needed, in accordance with ASCE standards. Georgia Energy Efficiency and Sustainable Construction Act of 2008 Related Services. The following services are to be provided by the Design Professional if this project is subject to the Georgia Energy Efficiency and Sustainable Construction Act of 2008 (“Energy Act”). See Section 10 of the Form of Contract to determine if the Energy Act is applicable.

Subsurface Utility Engineering (SUE) a. See Exhibit C for detailed scope of services.

Subsurface Utility Engineering (SUE). The Engineer shall perform investigations, research, and other activities necessary to identify potential utility/pipeline conflicts within the project limits including but not limited to: 1. Locating and identifying existing utilities/pipelines including casings and vent pipes within the existing and proposed rights-of-way, including obtaining information from utility owners record drawings and site reconnaissance, as well as shooting elevations marked or uncovered by others, and providing Subsurface Utility Engineering Level B effort to locate all subsurface utilities within the existing and proposed ROW. 2. Meeting with the utility companies and providing information and schematics as necessary. 3. Identifying major utilities (i.e. pipelines, concrete incased conduits, water, sanitary sewer, storm sewer, or other utilities of this nature) that may require relocation. 4. Identifying any utilities that are within dedicated easement that will be within the proposed right—of-way (i.e. utilities for which the County may be responsible for the cost of any adjustments and/or relocations). 5. Providing a table listing each utility identified with an ID number for, station number (at the left right-of-way, centerline, and right right-of-way), utility owner, contact person (name, address, phone number, and email address), notes in regards to potential conflict, and notes in regards to making recommendations for addressing potential conflicts. The Engineer, upon prior written authorization from the County Engineer, shall furnish the following services in accordance with the applicable guidelines as set forth below:

Subsurface Utility Engineering (SUE). The Contractor will perform subsurface utility engineering services, Quality Level B, along TH-15 from 200’ S. of Denver Ave. to 5th Ave S. and as needed from Bridge 43016 to the intersection of TH-7/TH-15, these locations were not completed under the previous SUE contract. 9.1.1 Designating (Quality Level B) – For the purpose of this Contract, “designate” refers to finding the presence and horizontal location of underground utilities using geophysical prospecting techniques, including electromagnetic, magnetic, ground penetrating radar, acoustical, pulse, sonic, and other energy fields methods. Contractor will also use appropriate methods to locate non-tonable facilities, such as unreinforced concrete mains or ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇. This work includes efforts and processes to achieve quality levels D, C, and B. State’s Deliverables: A) Provide the Contractor with any Quality Level D and C information that others have previously acquired or provided. B) Provide utility locates from pervious SUE contract.

Subsurface Utility Engineering (SUE). The CONSULTANT is to obtain and verify the location for one signal pole by excavation. The CONSULTANT is to excavate using a method enabling vertical, as well as horizontal exploration through the cut. The excavation should occur in such a manner as to prevent any damage to wrappings, coatings, or other protective coverings, such as by a vacuum excavation method, hand digging, etc. The CONSULTANT will be responsible for any damage to the utility structure during the excavation. After the excavation is complete, the CONSULTANT will backfill and compact with select material found around the utility structure. The SUE is complete when the location for one (1) signal pole has been agreed upon by the DEPARTMENT. The design CONSULTANT shall work with the subsurface CONSULTANT (preferably on-site) to find a clear location. Slight adjustment of the proposed pole location may be required and is to be included in the original task assignment for the intersection quadrant.

Subsurface Utility Engineering (SUE). 1. Level A investigation of existing water line connection point, and potential crossing utilities. The Level A investigation shall consist of performing up to ten

Subsurface Utility Engineering (SUE). The PMC shall perform consultant program management duties or have oversight responsibilities for the determination of vertical and horizontal locations of subsurface utilities by non-destructive methods. SUE investigations are required to accurately determine the location of utilities within the proposed ROW or potentially affected by the facility. This shall include review of Contractor data, surveys and mapping as well as performance as requested for the facility. During this work effort, the PMC shall review the data for accuracy. The PMC shall use existing as built plans, permit documents previously submitted to the State, plans obtained from the Texas Railroad Commission, utility easement documents, and field investigations to verify the SUE investigations. ▇▇▇ is the first step in the utility relocation effort and must be completed early in procurement phase to allow for adequate review time of the SUE information and provide the Contractor groups sufficient time to develop utility relocation costs. The PMC may be tasked to provide SUE maps for a specific project. The PMC shall perform consultant program management duties or have oversight responsibilities of the determination of vertical and horizontal locations of subsurface utilities by non-destructive methods. This shall include review of Contractor data, surveys and mapping as well as performance as directed by the State. SUE consists of subsurface utility investigations and above ground investigations prepared in accordance with American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials (AASHTO) and ADCE 38-02 standard guideline. The Utility Quality Levels are defined in cumulative order (least to greatest) as follows: 1. Quality Level D – Existing records: Utilities are plotted from review of available existing records. 2. Quality Level C – Surface visible feature survey: Quality Level D information from existing records is correlated with survey surface-visible features. Includes Quality Level D information. 3. Quality Level B – Designation: Two dimensional horizontal mapping. This information is obtained through the application and interpretation of appropriate non-destructive surface geophysical methods. Utility indications are referenced to establish survey control. Incorporates quality levels C and D information to produce Quality Level B. 4. Quality Level A – Locate (Test Hole): Three dimensional mapping and other characterization data. This information is obtained through expos...
