Township Council Meeting — Packet

Project Approach continued Stormwater Management Design Strategy: The New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection (NJDEP) adopted updated Stormwater Management Regulations effective July 17, 2023, requiring the implementation of Green Infrastructure (GI) Best Management Practices (BMPs) for qualifying projects. PS&S has assumed that the O’Connor Memorial Park Reconstruction Project will not trigger NJDEP or Township of West Orange Stormwater Management Ordinance requirements, and therefore GI design measures are not included in our base scope of work. However, PS&S has prepared an add alternate to include the cost for geotechnical investigation and stormwater management design services in the event the project meets the criteria for Major Development (disturbing 0.5 acres or more). Should the project fall under this classification, Green Infrastructure design and supporting geotechnical services would be required, and these tasks can be authorized under the proposed add-alternate. *Meetings included: One (1) Meeting – Final Design Review PHASE 4: CONSTRUCTION ADMINISTRATION & INSPECTION SERVICES The Construction Administration (CA) Phase ensures that the Township’s design intent is fully realized during construction and that the project is completed on schedule and in accordance with the construction documents. PS&S will provide dedicated construction administration and full-time inspection services throughout the anticipated three (3) month construction period. Our approach to construction administration emphasizes quality assurance and clear communication between the contractor and Township. PS&S’s on-site presence and consistent communication with the Township will help prevent delays, manage unforeseen field conditions, and deliver a finished project that meets both community expectations project standards.
