RE: Gibson Avenue Storm Sewer Line
SE Proposal No. 26000.063-2C
Dear Tyler:
Sopris Engineering, LLC (SE) is pleased to submit the following proposal for expanded engineering
services to provide additional engineering work related to the Gibson/Neale Avenue stormwater collection
system. This proposal will provide further engineering services beyond our initial services agreement.
Scope of Work
This proposal describes the scope of work discussed in our September 11, 2006 meeting with City
Engineer. As we agreed, it is necessary to provide the essential technical background information to
complete the design ofthe storm sewer link to the Neale Avenue outfall system. SE will perform all
field and office engineering and surveying work, and prepare plans and reports to complete the
construction package for the storm sewer extension project. Our work tasks will include the following
items:
Outfall System Analvsis
SURVEY: SE will perform a right-of-way survey for storm sewer analysis and will include the following
tasks:
1. Gibson Avenue from Neale Avenue to Matchless Drive.
2. Neale Avenue from Gibson Avenue to No-Problem Joe Bridge.
3. Storm Sewer Collection in the above listed streets.
4. Outfall system at the "No Problem Joe Bridge" at the Roaring Fork River.
The survey work described above will be limited to depicting the following project site features:
1. Existing drainage system components to only include the inverts ofthe inlets, pipes, manholes, existing
sediment collection pond, and outfall riprap channel.
2. Curb/gutter, edge of pavement, driveways, landscaping improvements, and trees within ROW.
SE will plot the above-depicted improvements within the project limit and street ROW lines.
COLLECTION SYSTEM HYDRAULIC ANALYSIS: SE will establish HGL and EGL through storm
sewer lines based on the Roaring Fork River vegetative line as water surface elevation. This analysis will

be based on the existing system's computed capacity and the corresponding rainfall return frequencies
between 2 to 100 year events (City of Aspen's rainfall intensity curves recognize 2-year, 10-year, and 100-
year storm return frequencies). SE will perform the following tasks:
. Calculate the system capacity for minor storm, classified as 1 O-year return event, and major storm,
classified as 1 OO-year return, and include the street carrying capacity between concrete curbs
during runoff events.
. Delineate the drainage sub-basins conveying drainage flows into this system by using the City's
GIS maps for hydrologic analysis of the existing collection system.
Final Desil!:n of the East Gibson Storm Line
Project limit for design of the storm sewer line is between Matchless Drive and Neale Avenue.
SE's design services for this new stormwater collection line will include the following work items:
. Incorporate the comments received from the Engineering staff in the final design if possible.
. Retain a contractor to perform spot potholes of all utilities that the proposed new storm sewer line
will cross. SE will survey these utilities and plot them on the engineering plans. We propose a two-
day potholing operation with temporary backfilling.
. SE will then produce the 90% design level plans, conduct meetings with the City Staff, conduct the
following review ofthe engineering plans, and complete the final designs.
. SE will produce construction drawings, details, and contract specifications using the existing City
bid format.
. SE will survey the new line after installation, and prepare as-built drawings in electronic format for
the COA.
SUllDortinl!: Enl!:iDeerinl!: Drawings
We anticipate delivery of supporting CAD drawings to the City (on both 24" x 36" and 11" x 17"
sheets). These drawings will include the following items:
Design set _ site plan with adequate horizontal and vertical controls, construction details, and specifications
for final review by the City.
Construction Set - Final plans and details, bid documents for the contractor to bid, and plans for staking
during construction along Gibson Avenue.
Fee Structure
.
Our estimated fee for the services listed above is based on a limited amount of the facts known to us
about the project site and the underground utility conditions. Sopris Engineering proposes the
categorized fees for each task as listed below. SE can begin work within two weeks from the signed
Authorization for Professional Services depending On weather conditions and ground visibility. We will
make our best attempt to meet your application schedules providing that we receive the required
information on a timely basis.
