RE: Small Structure inventory
Dear Mike,
Per your request, HWC Engineering (HWC) proposes to provide the City of Carmel Engineering
Department with the following services:
Utilizing the inventory created by the initial GIS and field data collection already obtained, HWC will
prepare a Small Structures Evaluation/Appraisal for each individual structure located in the City. Our
initial assessment identified a total of 171 structures located within the City limits. As part of this effort, we
will provide the following:
1.1. HWC will provide personnel qualified to perform work pertinent to inspections and oversight by a
registered Professional Engineer. The title page of each copy of the report shall include the
signature and seal of the Professional Engineer in charge of the inspection.
1.2. HWC will provide inspections that will be performed in accordance with current practices and all
work shall meet the guidelines as set out in the FHWA Culvert Inspection Manual.
1.3. HWC will provide the City with five (5) copies of the final report, which shall contain the following
items:
1.3.1 Structure inventory and Appraisal (SI&A) report for each individual structure.
1.3.2 Color photographs of the existing structure alignment, elevation and areas
showing deficiencies.
1.3.3 Individual listings of structures with recommended actions to address the
deficiencies. These actions may include recommendation for repair,
replacement and for particular hazardous situations, closure may be
recommended.
1.3.4 Applicable structure ratings shall be documented on the rating forms for each
individual structure. Ratings will be based on FHWA Culvert Inspection Manual
guidelines.
1.4 HWC shall coordinate with the Carmel GIS management team to assemble the following
data:
1.4.1 GPS coordinates for each individual small structure. The coordinates will be
located at the approximate end points for each structure. Elevations (accuracy to
within 8 inches)will be obtained for each invert and included in this data.
1.4.2 The specific inventory data for each structure will be appended into the Carmel
GIS system so that City staff can access the data.
We have also included additional time to coordinate with the Engineering Department and City GIS staff
on the work. We propose to provide these services for an hourly, not to exceed fee of$75,000 and will
complete the work by no later than March 31, 2013. I have attached a summary of our hourly rates for
your information.
