Russo, City Manager CITY OF SUNNY ISLES BEACH 17070 Collins Avenue, Suite 250 Sunny Isles Beach, Florida 33160 Re: Proposal for Professional Services for Phase 1 of the Drainage Improvement Project for the City of Sunny Isles Beach. Dear Mr. Russo: NOVA CONSULTING, INC., (NOVA) would like to extend our gratitude for the opportunity to provide the CITY OF SUNNY ISLES BEACH (City) with a proposal for professional engineering services for the referenced project. Following our latest meetings and the review of the As-Built survey provided by the City (received September 25, 2001) for the passive park, we have identified two tasks that require immediate attention: 1. Development of Pump Station Relocation plans and their incorporation into the project drawings 2. Development of a Drainage Master Plan Completion of these tasks prior to embarking on the bidding process will simplify (1) permitting, (2) construction implementation and (3) project management. Development of a drainage master plan will provide the City the flexibility to phase construction to meet drainage and financial needs and constraints while addressing regulatory permitting requirements. The latter is implied given that a drainage master plan is synonymous with the Conceptual Environmental Resource Permit (ERP) issued by the South Florida Water Management District (SFWMD). The conceptual ERP serves as the umbrella permit under which subsequent permits are issued by the SFWMD, the regulatory agency responsible for issuing Stormwater Management System permits, and the Florida Department of Environmental Regulations (FDEP), the agency responsible for administering and regulating the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) program permits. This is described in greater detail under Task 2 of the Scope of Work (SOW) that follows. Scope of Work Task 1.0 Pump Station Relocation Plans This task involves relocating the trash rack, wet well, valve and flow control boxes, control panel, pad mounted transformer, drainage wells, conveyance manifold, and associated appurtenances. To accomplish this, a suitable site must be identified and potential existing and future conflicts resolved. For the purpose of this proposal, it is assumed that NOVA will be working closely w:th the City to identify potential sites. NOVA will be responsible for reviewing the feasibility of potential sites from a technical perspective, with the City addressing legal, jurisdictional, administrative and acquisition requirements and issues. In addition, it is assumed that site surveying, soil (geotechnical) testing, and intrusive utility identification and location, if required, will be contracted directly by the City, and therefore associated fees are not included in this proposal.
