Craig A. Smith & Associates, Inc. Engineers • Surveyors • Subsurface Utility Engineering 3D Subsurface Imaging • Utility Coordination We strive to identify potential issues early in the project so necessary action can be taken to keep the project on schedule. CAS will continually update the cost of the project as necessary In order to stay on budget. If an issue develops with the schedule, cost or the budget, CAS will advise the City and develop a plan for corrective measures with the staff. We consider the City and CAS as one team, all striving for the same goal of a quality product on schedule and on budget. CAS Technical Reviews will be conducted throughout the project schedule by the Principal members of our firm as part of our commitment to quality engineering. CAS' experienced engineering staff, in-house survey and extensive utility locating capabilities allows for the development of very accurate and complete basemaps for design of such utility rehabilitation projects. There is no second guessing as to the location of existing buried utilities (both active and abandoned), therefore greatly reducing or altogether eliminating change orders. This is the "CAS ADVANTAGE". Our goal is to have no change orders. UNDERSTANDING SCOPE OF WORK The City of Sunny Isles Beach is seeking professional engineering services for the evaluation and rehabilitation of the existing stormwater pump station located within the Golden Shores community. "The project is planned to rebuild the entire pump station to ensure its continued use." The evaluation will include a hydrologic and hydraulic analysis of the drainage area served by the pump station including the pump station using best available information in the absence to drainage system as -built data to verify existing drainage levels of service. Professional services will also include producing as -built drawings of the existing stormwater pump station's wet well and inflow/outflow devices (pipes & Class V wells) to develop a representative hydraulic evaluation of the station. Professional services can also include the surveying of the existing drainage system to verify what is the ground and include measures to account for sea -level rise as necessary. Additionally, the services also include but are not limited to the design and implementation of a remote telemetry unit/SCADA system, electrical upgrades, inspection of the pumps and associated components and recommend upgrades as necessary; test wells for capacity and integrity, backflow, prevention device testing and bypass outfall pipe replacement with new sluice gate type structure and street drainage system inspection. In addition, the City is interested in replacing the existing emergency generator outside the existing structure with a suitable generator or possibly modify the station by providing a non -confined access point to the electrical controls and generator. The latter option may not be necessary if the proposed project is to rebuild the entire station. (See Exhibit B and C for pump station schematic and location map at the end of this section). CAS will perform a detailed review of all record drawing/as-built survey data and any other pertinent documentation of the existing pump station and related facilities, such as pumps, motors, wells, controls, electrical panel, generator, etc. A hydraulic evaluation of the Golden Shores drainage area will also be conducted to ensure proper sizing of pumps, motors and related elexisting pump stationctrical equipment and make sure water quality treatment requirements are met. Based on the findings CAS will make recommendations for improvements/upgrades to the existing stormwater pump station. Thereafter, CAS will prepare proper documentation for engineering design, permitting and construction as required for the completion of the rehabilitation project.
