344-24 Exhibit A-West Orange 2022 SRTS PE Proposal Rev 07-16-2024.pdf

SRTS-2022 Design Assistance Program Township of West Orange November 13, 2023 Revised July 16, 2024 Page 6 of 8 Assumptions: 1. The project will not be a “major development” under the current NJDEP Stormwater Management Rules, and no stormwater management facilities will be required. 2. The current NJDEP Stormwater Management Rules, NJDEP Flood Hazard Area Control Act rules and NJDEP Freshwater Wetlands Act rules as of the date of this proposal are applicable. This proposal does not include work to conform to subsequent rule changes after the date of this proposal. 3. The current NJ Soil Erosion and Sediment Control Standards dated 2014 (as revised in 2017 for Land Grading and Topsoil restoration chapters) is applicable; however, it is assumed that all disturbed soils will be scarified to a depth of at least 6 inches prior to applying the topsoil and seeding such that soil compaction testing during project design is not required. 4. In the event that any of the above referenced rules are revised or re-interpreted so as to change the scope of work required on this project a contract modification may be required. Determine Traffic Engineering Facility Locations (3090): GPI will prepare conceptual level plans for the layout of regulatory pedestrian warning signs to determine any associated right of way needs. It is anticipated that there will be no right of way required for the signs as they will be within either the County’s or Township’s ROW. GPI will Identify and resolve any potential underground or aerial utility conflicts although none are anticipated at this time. GPI assumes that the new flashing school advance crossing signage assemblies, and radio-controlled controller boxes, are at non-signalized intersections and will be solar powered and therefore no electrical design will be necessary. Prepare ROW Report (3110): GPI will prepare the ROW Report for the properties in the vicinity of the new ADA compliant curb ramp locations for presentation at the ROW Kickoff Meeting. Initiate ROW Impact Plan (3115): GPI will prepare the ROW Impact Plan to accurately depict all ROW impacts (acquisitions and easements) for the proposed improvements. The plan will indicate the block and lot numbers along with the owners’ names and the acquisition/easement area for each parcel. The ROW Impact Plan will also indicate any recent preliminary and final site plan approvals.

e the block and lot numbers along with the owners’ names and the acquisition/easement area for each parcel. The ROW Impact Plan will also indicate any recent preliminary and final site plan approvals. The ROW Impact Plan will be utilized to obtain the necessary title reports for the project. The need for offsite ROW acquisition for reforestation, wetland and riparian buffer mitigation is not anticipated. The quantity of properties located within the project limits that will require some form of ROW acquisition (fee, easement, and/or temporary sidewalk work area) will be determined on a case by case study of the existing curb ramp conditions. The proposed ROW rights will be identified on the ROW Impact Plan in accordance with the NJDOT Right of Way Engineering Manual. Hold ROW Kickoff Meeting (3120): GPI presents the project’s scope and discusses the details of ROW acquisitions. The purpose of the meeting is to discuss each property impact with the Township and obtain feedback on the design and if any changes are recommended to avoid each respective ROW impact prior to securing the CED and submitting the PE report. Update Preliminary Detour and Construction Staging Plans (3130): GPI will prepare the preliminary construction staging plans. The plans will be generally schematic in nature. We do not anticipate indicating MPT devices and signs on the plans for this phase. As the project is typically off the roadway, we anticipate construction can be accommodated by typical MUTCD and NJDOT set ups and details. Detours are not anticipated or included in our scope of work. Temporary signals, modification of existing signals or other electrical work are also not anticipated. Prepare Construction Cost Estimate (3135): GPI will prepare the Construction Cost Estimate using AASHTOWare Project Estimation software and the plans developed during PE. The Construction Cost Estimate is necessary to properly program construction funds for the project. We will submit the Construction Cost Estimate to the Township and NJDOT Local Aid for review and comment. Prepare Draft Preliminary Engineering Report (3160): GPI will prepare and submit the Draft PE Report for Township and NJDOT review. The Draft PE Report will include the Environmental Document and the appropriate
