Additionally limited Subsurface Utility Engineering (SUE) Quality Level A as described below is provided for conflict resolution and will be provided as approved by city staff. The SUE shall be performed in accordance with CI/ASCE 38-02. Quality Level D  Conduct appropriate investigations (e.g., owner records, County/CITY records, personal interviews, visual inspections, etc.), to help identify utility owners that may have facilities within the project limits or that may be affected by the project.  Collect applicable records (e.g., utility owner base maps, “as built” or record drawings, permit records, field notes, geographic information system data, oral histories, etc.) on the existence and approximate location of existing involved utilities.  Review records for: evidence or indication of additional available records; duplicate or conflicting information; need for clarification.  Develop SUE plan sheets and transfer information on all involved utilities to appropriate design plan sheets, electronic files, and/or other documents as required. Exercise professional judgment to resolve conflicting information. For information depicted, indicate: utility type and ownership; date of depiction; quality level(s); end points of any utility data; line status (e.g., active, abandoned, out of service); line size and condition; number of jointly buried cables; and encasement. Quality Level C (includes tasks as described for Quality Level D)  Identify surface features, from project topographic data and from field observations, that are surface appurtenances of subsurface utilities.  Include survey and correlation of aerial or ground-mounted utility facilities in Quality Level C tasks.  Survey surface features of subsurface utility facilities or systems if such features have not already been surveyed by a professional surveyor. If previously surveyed, check survey data for accuracy and completeness.  The survey shall also include (in addition to subsurface utility features visible at the ground surface): determination of invert elevations of any manholes and vaults; sketches showing interior dimensions and line connections of such manholes and vaults; any surface markings denoting subsurface utilities, furnished by utility owners for design purposes.  Exercise professional judgment to correlate data from different sources, and to resolve conflicting information.  Update (or prepare) plan sheets, electronic files, and/or other documents to reflect the integration of Quality Level D and Quality Level C information.  Recommend follow-up investigations (e.g., additional surveys, consultation with utility owners, etc.) as may be needed to further resolve discrepancies.  Provide Quality Level C to identify overhead utilities on the project and provide the overhead utility information on the SUE plan sheets. Level B (includes tasks as described for Quality Level C)  Select and apply appropriate surface geophysical method(s) to search for and detect subsurface utilities within the project limits, and/or to trace a particular utility line or system.  Based on an interpretation of data, mark the indications of utilities on the ground surface for subsequent survey. Utilize paint or other method acceptable for marking of lines.  Unless otherwise directed, mark centerline of single-conduit lines, and outside edges of multi-conduit systems.  Resolve differences between designated utilities and utility records and surveyed appurtenances.  Recommend additional measures to resolve differences if they still exist. Recommendations may include additional or different surface geophysical methods, exploratory excavation, or upgrade to Quality Level A data.  As an alternative to the physical marking of lines, the ENGINEER may, with CITY’s approval, utilize other means of data collection, storage, retrieval, and reduction, that enables the correlation of surface geophysical data to the project’s survey control. Level A  Expose and locate utilities at specific locations.  Tie horizontal and vertical location of utility to survey control.  Provide utility size and configuration.  Provide paving thickness and type, where applicable.  Provide general soil type and site conditions and such other pertinent information as is reasonably ascertainable from each test hole site. ASSUMPTIONS  Right-of-Way research includes review of property/right-of-way records based on current internet based Tarrant Appraisal District (TAD) information available at the start of the project and available on-ground property information (i.e. iron rods, fences, stakes, etc.). It does not include effort for chain of title research, parent track research, additional research for easements not included in the TAD, right-of-way takings, easement vacations and abandonments, right-of-way vacations, and street closures.  SUE Level B provided throughout the project scope  SUE Level A utility locates: 5 Shallow (0-4ft) paved, 5 Shallow (0-4ft) unpaved, 5 Deep (4-8ft) paved and 5 Deep (4-8ft) unpaved DELIVERABLES
