Bruce Westby, P.E. <br />November 11, 2022 <br />Page 3 <br />• Perform a Gopher State One Call, <br />• Perform a topographic survey, and <br />• Reduce the data and create a base map. <br />Geotechnical Exploration <br />We will work with American Engineering Testing (AET) to complete a deep boring in the area of the <br />proposed structures. The deep soil bring will be used to determine soil types, groundwater elevation and <br />structural capacity of the soils. As a portion of their services, AET will: <br />• Provide utility clearance, <br />• Drill one deep boring (exact depth to be determined), <br />• Drill four borings associated with the directionally drilled forcemain, <br />• Provide laboratory testing services, and <br />• Provide a geotechnical report. <br />Task 3: Preliminary Design Alternatives <br />We will prepare design layout for review and consideration. Benefits and impacts of the layout developed <br />will be presented for review and consideration. The layout will include access drive, lift station, valve <br />vault, maintenance pad, transformer pad, lighting, forcemain alignment, and construction limits. <br />Pump and Forcemain Sizing <br />We will complete a pump design and forcemain sizing during the preliminary design phase of the project. <br />Once the pump and forcemain design has been completed, we will proceed to design the lift station <br />manhole for the site. <br />Utility Coordination <br />We will contact private utility companies whose facilities may be impacted by construction. This will <br />include sending preliminary layout drawings and final construction plans to the utility companies. We <br />will also contact power suppliers to determine requirements for providing service to the site. <br />Preliminary Cost Estimates <br />The preliminary cost estimates will be completed to verify the construction estimates for the work. <br />Task 4: Construction Documents, Permitting and Approvals <br />Construction Plans and Specifications <br />Bolton & Menk will provide the City of Ramsey with final review construction plans and special <br />provisions. Bolton & Menk will incorporate all City of Ramsey comments prior to completing final plans <br />and special provisions for bidding. <br />Lift Station Plans <br />Our team will develop plans related to the lift station site based upon the preliminary design. <br />Plans will include detailed drawings related to: <br />• Lift station, <br />• Valve vault, <br />• Access Drive, <br />Bolton & Menk is an equal opportunity employer. <br />
