GIS mapping will include at a minimum, water main locations, service line replacement locations, National Historic registry locations, water sampling history, conflicting capital improvements during the proposed construction duration, and other factors identified during the replacement methodology phase. 6. Service Replacement Listings and Log Utilize the existing comprehensive property listing (Excel) as a basis for outlining background information on individual properties that will receive lead service replacements. This log will be based on collected City data and historical records which will outline the service material on the street side and service material on the home side. 7. Replacement Methodology Work with the City to establish a consistent methodology for selecting services for replacement. This will include (but is not limited to) prioritization by: • Services with high lead content sampling history • Locations that align with existing Capital Improvement or Asset Management Plans • Areas that can be clustered together to minimize City-wide impacts • Other specific City ranking considerations By utilizing a Lead Service Line Inventory and subsequently a Lead Service Line Replacement Plan, properties selected for Lead Service Line Replacement will be based on Right of Way projects, economic factors, and census tract data. These factors will be utilized in conjunction with the service replacement log to create a priority list, so it is clear the order in which service replacement is required by the Contractor. 8. Replacement Sections and Details Prepare replacement cross sections will be prepared to indicate the typical sections that Contractors will be required to remove and replace as they install service lines from the existing water main to the Right-of-Way. We anticipate there will be 5-6 sections required to cover most conditions encountered. 9. Preparation of Front End and Technical Specifications Prepare bid specifications including IFA grant requirements, American Iron Steel requirements, MWBE requirements/good faith efforts, Responsible Bidder Ordinance documentation, debarment, wage rates, etc. Engineer will develop a private property right-of-access form to be signed by property owners for construction access and approved by the City legal department.
