Common use of Utility Engineering Clause in Contracts

Utility Engineering. 1. The Engineer shall develop PS&E and special details including structural details to accommodate or adjust utilities, including but not limited to fiber optic, communications, water, and wastewater, if applicable. The Engineer shall develop PS&E and special details for betterment utilities (Forced betterments and Elective betterments) as well as the betterment cost estimate (See the State’s ROW Utility Manual chapter 7). Prior to developing any special utility detail or PS&E set, the Engineer shall notify the State in writing regarding each utility conflict that may require an accommodation. a. The Engineer shall prepare utility design plans to show the existing and proposed utility facilities in both plan and profile. b. The Engineer shall overlay the utility design plan onto the highway design plan to show existing and proposed highway features, including highway ROW lines, proposed ROW lines and all control of access lines. c. The Engineer shall prepare the utility design plans to depict sufficient information that will enable the State to verify compliance with UAR DocuSign Envelope ID: 272D98F7-7E9E-42C2-A06F-E7D2542DAFD3 Contract No. 14-7SDP5001 including but not limited to depth of cover, casing requirements, vent locations, manhole sizes, for each utility design. 2. As directed by the State, the Engineer shall coordinate with each utility to develop each PS&E package and special details. The Engineer shall develop each utility detail or PS&E package in compliance with the State’s UAR. 3. The Engineer shall develop a detailed estimate of quantities and construction cost estimate in standard State bid format. If necessary, the Engineer shall develop betterment costs. 4. The Engineer shall prepare General Notes and shall identify and provide a list of governing standard specifications, special specifications, and special provisions and the appropriate reference items. The Engineer shall prepare each plan sheet, detail sheet, special specification, special provision, and special note required to incorporate the utility designs into the State’s plans and bidding documents in a format required by the State. 5. If necessary, the Engineer shall provide any required Utility Certifications. 6. The Engineer shall prepare a Construction Time Determination schedule for each utility relocation design required to incorporate into the State’s construction schedule. 7. The Engineer shall evaluate and resolve any conflict with other utilities or highway facilities, as a result of the utility design. 8. The Engineer shall review and verify that the utility design plans are consistent and compatible with the following: a. ROW acquisition schedule b. Utility adjustments with ROW acquisition schedule c. Design and construction of the Project
