A. Review of existing hydraulic model, plans, studies, technical memoranda, records drawings, and any other data relevant to the project. B. Provide a Project Management Plan within fourteen (14) calendar days of NoticeTo-Proceed. AWWU at its option may change the scope of services. C. Solicit input from stakeholders including: AWWU Treatment, Engineering, and O&M divisions, and others as needed. D. Prepare a Design Study Report that identifies potential sites for a new water storage tank for Girdwood. This Design Study Report shall include a recommended site and will serve as the basis for a future design by AWWU. Elements to include: a. Analysis of topography to identify sites what will provide hydraulic advantages. b. Hydraulic modeling of the sites to determine improvements to the existing water system. c. Sizing of the water storage tank to accommodate the current and future needs of the community with respect to population and fire protection. d. Analysis of soil conditions at the selected sites. e. Determination of the appropriate type of water storage tank that is best suited to the potential sites. f. Analysis of land ownership of the sites and property in between the well and water storage tank and ownership and/or permitting issues that may be associated with construction of the tank and the feed and return transmission mains. Potential selected sites should not be prohibitively landlocked by issues related to property ownership. g. Analysis of alternative alignments for fill and return transmission mains to the selected water storage tank sites. h. Analysis of the level of environmental permitting process that will be required for the selected sites and transmission main alignments. i. Determine land and easement acquisitions necessary to install the water storage tank and associated transmission mains. j. Provide preliminary cost estimates to construct a water storage tank and feed and return transmission mains to the selected sites.
