SCOPE:
BAR/X RANCH WATERLINE
IMPROVEMENT PROJECTS
This project consists of performing consulting engineering work for design services for the Bar/X
Ranch WaterLine Improvement Projects as part of the Burlingame Village Housing Project. The
design and construction phases will include, waterline design and construction specifications,
construction inspection, and Record Drawings for the project are included in this proposal. We will
use the base information provide by Bar/X Ranch and Buckhorn Geotech for our design.
PROJECTS:
Water Line Relocations and Extensions: The proposed Burlingame Village will require the looping
fi.om two different directions, and the design and cost for each loop will be separated.
A) 12" and 8" loop from Highway 82 through the Free Market Bar/X Ranch to the
Burlingame Village, (-4,000' 12" DIP and 4,500' of 8" DIP)
B) 12" loop from Burlingame Village to the AABC, (- 1,500' 12" DIP)
Base Maps
We will be using base information, topo, road design and alignments, road cross sections, lot lines,
building envelopes, easements, and other information submitted in the PUD and the Preliminary
water design by the Bar/X Ranch and Buckhorn Geotech. We are assuming that all required base
information is available and can be obtained. If additional base information is needed to complete
the designs, it will be considered an addition to this proposal.
Design Phase
Base mapping being provided for the project is not on City of Aspen Base Datum. Design for the line
realignments and relocations will be use this mapping, however, Final Asbuilt Drawings will need to
be converted to the City of Aspen Datum.
The design phase for the projects will include using the base maps compiled above and designing
new water facilities to accommodate proposed development and field conditions. The design will
require drawings to be drafted for the line relocations, detailing alignment and all other work to be
completed as part of the proposed work. It is assumed that McLaughlin Rincon (MRL) will use
existing City of Aspen and MRL pipeline details, installation, and material specifications for this
project. MRL will provide drawings at 1" = 50-feet horizontal, 1"= 2-foot vertical on 24" x 36"
reproducible mylars to the city plus electronic files in AutoCad R-2002 format. The drawings are to
be placed on dual format sheets showing plan view on top and profile view on the bottom. MRL will
also provide preliminary design of the line replacements for review by the City of Aspen and the
Developer at 50% and 90% design stages. We are assuming that lines will be replaced within
existing easements or ROW=s, if not new easements will need to be surveyed, described, and
recorded with the City by the Developer.
Design also includes coordination with CDOT for crossing Highway 82 and the connection to the
Burlingame Loop Line, coordinating with the design team for Burlingame Village for the required
looping to serve the project, and with the AABC for the looping required at the North end of the
project
Construction Phase
This work will includes Inspection and Record drawing preparation. The record drawings will
require drawings to be drafted for the replacements detailing alignment and all other work completed
as part of the water line extension. MR will provide the as-built drawing on 24" X 36" reproducible
mylar(s) to the City, plus the electronic file in DXF format. As-built work will require an alignment
survey and preparation of legal descriptions, plotting easements and ROW on construction plans and
recording of the easement. All Survey and legal work is to be performed by the City of Aspen--s
Survey Engineers, including construction layout and alignment staking. Surveying new easements
will be required if the new design requires the new alignment to be outside the existing easement.
Surveying may be required to verify both horizontal and vertical control with the existing system and
the City=s GIS system, and new base monument layout.
To insure that the installation of the water line extensions will be installed according to City of
Aspen and MR drawings and specifications, MR will provide inspection services. MR will make
daily site visits to the project to review the contractor progress, installation methods, materials, and
other pertinent installation requirements. IVlR will monitor tests and certify that the water line meets
design and specified quality requirements.
As per our contract, we will bill accordingly to our rate schedule on an hourly rate, with a not to
exceed the estimated costs without written approvals. Our estimated costs are based upon
construction of the various DIP pipelines and appurtenances including site visits, miscellaneous costs
and normal pipeline installation, construction practices, and not working weekends. Addition costs
may be incurred due to delays caused by adverse weather, contractor's schedules, and unknown field
conditions. We anticipate, based upon other similar projects that, construction for A) Highway 82
Loop will take 120 days to complete and B) AABC Loop will take 30 days to complete. Our costs
are also based upon the 4 month construction period. Services provided by others include all
surveying, easements, and compaction testing. MR will coordinate any survey work required
Summary of Estimated Costs
A) Highway 82 Loop to the Village
Design $31,000
(Ron/Jim: I based this in two ways - 9,000' ~$60.00/ft x 6.0% fee) = $32,400
or (7 sheets X 40hrs/sht X $92.00 + specs~ 40 hrs X $92/hr) =$29,500
Construction Phase $21,500
(Based on Paul 90days X 3 hrs/d X $61/hr) + ( gdd 120 days at .5 hrs/day)= $21,990
(9,000 X 60/ft X 4% fee) = $21,600
TOTAL $58,500.00
B) AABC Loop - Village to the AABC
Design
(1500' X $85/ft X .6% fee)= $7,650
or (2 shts X 40 hrs/sht + 8 hrs misc X $92/hr) = $8,280
Construction Phase
(1500 X $85/ft X 4% fee) = $5,100
or (30days X 2.5 hrs/day X $61/hr + 30d X 1 hr/d X $92 = $7,335
