Where the four culverts run underneath the road, an additional 50 foot wide area will be
surveyed (25 feet on each side from the centerline of the culvert) on the opposite side
of Ditch Road where the proposed trail will run.
Total survey includes approximately 3,225 feet of roadway.
D. Obtain last deed of record, subdivision plats, and section or auditor plats for all properties
within the project limits from local and state agencies. The property information shall
include parcel number, property owner's name, mailing address and property location. VS

E. Send out survey notices together to all property owners within the project area. All survey
notices and questionnaires shall be approved by Client prior to distribution.
F. Establish Primary Horizontal Control within the project limits such that the survey base
line(s) can be re-established during construction. The coordinate system used will be a
local ground system referenced to the East Zone of the Indiana State Plane Coordinate
System, NAD83(2011).
G. Establish on-site elevation using NGS, DNR or Hamilton County Surveyor's benchmarks.
Set temporary bench marks within the project limits such that elevation datum can be re-
established during construction.
H. Tie in the survey base lines to available USPLSS section corners and/or existing
property/right-of-way monumentation. All necessary section corners will be located or re-
established to adequately define property lines along the limits of the project.
I. Plot right-of-way and property lines based on observed physical evidence and record
documents acquired from local government agencies.
J. Coordinate with all utility companies to locate and mark their utilities in field. VS shall
notify the utilities via the call before you dig notification system (Indiana Underground Plant
Protection Service (I.U.P.P.S.)). VS shall verify that each utility has field located their
facilities during the course of the design survey. The existing facilities located, at the time
EXH 6 1-I
2 of 3O
of the field survey, shall be incorporated into the design survey. In addition, VS shall
provide listing of all utilities and all information available for that utility including address,
and telephone number.
K. Perform design survey in sufficient detail to obtain topographic data, buildings, walls,
walks, signs, vaults, and natural and man made features, as evidenced by facilities at the
ground surface and marks by others, necessary for the development of project plans,
including all potentially affected trees, 6 inches in diameter and greater, identified by size.
L. Take cross sections at specified intervals across the right-of-way of public roadways and or
the project limits (as described above). whichever is further out. Additional cross sections
shall be taken at intersection of streets, roads, railroads, driveways, etc. Obtain elevations
of all existing structures such as drainage culverts, utilities and other structures. Spot
elevation data will be provided at:
M. Indicate spot elevations at all, break in grade, ramps, area ways, tree grates, etc. within the
project limits, and at top and bottom of curb.
N. Provide a listing of all symbols, notations and legends used in the field survey. VS shall
furnish a hard copy together with all field survey information collected on electronic media.
VS shall also prepare master drawings (1 -foot contours) from data collected in topographic
survey using AutoCAD Civil 3D and shall submit a hard copy together with electronic
format. VS shall delineate and label the location of all buildings, structures, fences,
railings, signs, walls, walks, paved areas, curbs and other permanent structures and
existing improvements. VS shall outline all building edges, insets and projections, and
below grade structures such as vaults, basements, and areaways where applicable, as
evidenced by facilities at the ground surface and marks by others.
O. Prepare and record a Location Control Route Survey Plat depicting existing alignments
and right-of-way. Property lines and owner information for adjoining properties will be
shown, but not dimensioned.
