TO: MATT GRUBER <br /> SUBJECT:AUGUSTIN BERNAL MOUNTAIN BIKE TRAIL CONSTRUCTION SUPPORT SERVICES <br /> communication during the construction period, review of the Final Submittal PS&Es, preconstruction surveys, <br /> critical path construction items, key site improvement components,worker safety,and environmental and <br /> cultural resources awareness. In addition, protocols for Requests for Information (RFI's)and submittals will be <br /> discussed,as well as construction milestone inspections,approvals, Project final acceptance,and Project <br /> closeout procedures. During the meeting,a site walk will be conducted to review areas for the key site <br /> improvements relative to the Final Submittal PS&Es. <br /> Task 116: Response to Requests for Information (RFI's) <br /> Dudek will provide technical assistance by reviewing any contractor-submitted RFI's in a timely manner,to <br /> clarify contractor questions and requests for clarity about the PS&Es before actual installation.All RFI's <br /> received will be logged by date and description in the order received,and our responses will be provided in <br /> writing by way of memoranda to the City's attention for processing and circulation to the construction <br /> contractor. Because the amount of questions is difficult to anticipate,this task includes 12 hours for review <br /> and response to RFIs. If needed,additional time can be provided on a time and materials basis. <br /> Task 11C: Submittal Reviews <br /> Dudek will provide technical assistance by reviewing contractor submittals in a timely manner and verifying <br /> materials and products conform to plans prior to installation.All submittals received will be logged by date and <br /> description in the order received,and our responses will be provided in writing by way of memoranda to the <br /> City's attention for processing and circulation to the construction contractor. <br /> Task 11D: Construction Observations <br /> The Dudek team will provide field review and observations of the project's construction progress at key <br /> milestones;these typically include final grading, installation of specific features and treatments, assistance <br /> responding to unanticipated field conditions, and seeding and planting for decommissioned trails. <br /> As part of our field review,we will make design adjustment recommendations as needed for fit to unexpected <br /> site conditions and facilitate proper scheduling and sequencing for project success.We expect that the field <br /> review will include observations of the contractor's layout of key site improvements. In addition, we will <br /> observe the contractor's progress at the key milestones noted above. Following each observation, we will <br /> prepare field reports summarizing the installation progress, observations,and clarifications or <br /> recommendations to construction operations for the City's review and coordination with the construction <br /> contractor. <br /> We expect to be on site a total of three times during the 60-day construction window. If the City conducts <br /> regular on-site tailgate meetings with the construction contractor and others, Dudek will conduct our three <br /> total construction observation visits on the same day in order to attend the meetings, if this is practical. <br /> If additional inspections are desired beyond the initial three visits,they can be provided for an additional <br /> agreed-upon fee. <br /> Task 11E: Final Acceptance <br /> At completion of all construction work,we will conduct a Final Project Acceptance observation with the City,the <br /> contractor,and others as necessary to evaluate the contractor's conformance to the Final Submittal PS&Es, <br /> City permits and agreements, and project schedule. If,after the observation, we are satisfied with the <br /> construction,we will provide our written recommendation for a notice of provisional acceptance of the <br />
