Task 1: JOINT TRENCH INTENT DRAWING & BASE MAP
1.1 Project Management and Coordination Meetings
CONSULTANT will be responsible for managing design team staff. The key project
management tasks that will be implemented by Bellecci include creation of the project
scope of work and cost proposal, establishing and updating the project schedule,
monitoring and updating the project budget and invoicing, scheduling coordination
meetings with key parties. Details on the key Project Management tasks are summarized
below.
• Meetings: The meetings shall include two (2) design review meetings with CITY staff,
PG&E, and/or utility coordination meetings as determined by the CITY.
• Schedule: The project schedule will be created in MS Project and submitted to the
CITY for review and approval.
Deliverables: Updates of MS Project Schedule, Budget Spreadsheet, Meetings Notes
1.2 Topographic Surveys
CONSULTANT's union survey crews will collect field topographic information with
appropriate detail for a joint trench utility project; within the limit of work. The topographic
survey beyond the trench limits will be for general base mapping purposes and will
include: visible utility locations, invert elevation, striping, existing curb and gutter,
sidewalks, asphalt dikes, ramps, driveways, fences, edge of pavement, retaining walls,
trees, poles, signs, in order to complete the base map information using the CITY Datum
and Coordinate system. The topographic survey will help identify the existing street profile
slopes, existing street cross section and drainage patterns. CONSULTANT will conduct
right-of-way research to identify the record property lines and easement lines in the
project area. The right-of-way research will involve downloading parcel maps from an on-
line subscription to Parcel Quest, and fitting the record right-of way dimensions onto the
CAD aerial topographic survey and supplemental survey. Property lines will be aligned
with the topographic survey by reference to curbs and fence lines.
1.2.1 Aerial Topo
Before aerial survey Bellecci field surveys will collect detailed field topographic survey at
project site, and the field topographic survey points will be used in-lieu of flight crosses
for aerial control. Aerial survey will be appropriate for 1" =40' topography. CONSULTANT's
aerial mapping subconsultant will fly 4 RGB digital images in two flight strips at 1 :3200 photo
scale at approximately 1600' above the ground. Images will be scanned at 2000 dpi for use
in a soft-copy photogrammetric workstation.
• Production: Aerial mapping subconsultant will complete the following:
-Analytical aero triangulation of the 4 images, including manual "pass" and "tie"
points.
Measurement of aerial ground control panels. Least squares adjustment of the
image block.
-Adjusted stereo paired images are viewed in stereo compilation software, and
planimetric features are collected. There is no contour or elevation delivery for this
project.

Orthoimagery is produced after a 'Iight-DTM' ground terrain model is complete.
Images are stitched together, seam lines are edited, and defects are removed.
-All plan/ortho output data undergoes quality control and edit by a separate
operator.
• Limitations:
-Aerial photogrammetry cannot map objects that are obscured by trees,
overhanging objects, parked cars, etc. or do not have the visual acuity to be
discerned given the project flying height. End products are considered planning-
level products. It is advised that additional ground truthing / field survey be
conducted before project design and construction.
Deliverable: Aerial Mapping Subconsultant will provide a Single CAD file in AutoCAD
format (DWG) for DTM and mapping, and one orthoimagery tile as TIF and JPG. The
resolution of the TIF and JPG files will be 0.1' pixel.

provided by the utility companies. CONSULTANT will request from the City electronic
copies of available record maps from the CITY Maps and Files office and utility maps
obtained from utility companies; and include existing as-built mapping information on the
project plans. The utility mapping will also incorporate line work that is generated by
connecting the topographic survey points from surface evident utility lids and manholes,
with the conduit and pipeline pathways supported by record utility mapping information.
1.4 Field Utility Mapping
Bellecci's Utility Mapping Subconsultant will conduct a field visit, detect and mark the
existing utilities locations at the project area. Bellecci's Utility Mapping Subconsultant will

3.4 90% Joint Trench Plans Submittal
Consultant will make minor layout revisions for the 90% submittal and update the Form
B, cost estimate and technical specifications. The 90% submittal will commence after all
utility companies have provided comments on the 30% submittal. The 90% submittal will
add the trenching on private property up to within 5' of the PG&E meter location. The
PG&E meter locations will be identified by a site walk by the design engineer, who will
also collect line work for the approximate surface conditions between the back of walk
and the PG&E meter locations. It is assumed that there are no changes to Utility designs
from Utility Companies (Comcast, AT&T, Wave Broadband or PG&E) after this stage of
the design process. The 90% submittal will also include payment clauses.
Deliverables: see Task 3.1 for deliverables
3.5 100% Form B Submittal
CONSULTANT will be responsible for preparing the Form B cost allocation, including
reimbursable expenses for in-house printing, that will be provided to CITY in PDF format
for review and revision, then submitted to Utilities for Comment. CONSULTANT will lead
CITY's negotiations to obtain Utilities approval of the Form B cost allocation. Negotiations
with Utilities will include a) providing completed plans and Form B, b) coordination with
utility company reviews at each submittal, c) responding to questions and concerns from
utility companies, and d) keep the City informed on the status of the utility company
review.
The 100% Form B submittal will be concurrent with the Bid Documents submittal to the
City. Listed below are some of the key items included on the Form B.
• Show separate sections in the Form B for a) Trenching, b) Conduits, c) Vaults, and
soft costs (Engineering -Composite Drawing, City Construction Management as
allowed by PG&E).
• PG&E may require a separate section in the Form B for surface restorations, because
this cost is shared equally among the trench occupants. Consultant will compile the
total surface restoration into a single area calculation, which will be prorated to each
trench based on the length and average width of each trench.
• The cost sharing for each Form B Trench item is divided among the trench occupants
per UO Standard S5453.
• Based on other recent Rule 20 project the other public work construction items related
to the Rule 20 as incidental to the Trench cost in the Measurement/Payment
specifications. These items include Traffic Controls, Water Pollution Control,
Mobilization, Clearing/Grubbing, Demolition, Construction Surveying by Contractor,
and other non-utility specific items.
• It is not anticipated there will be new utility design and limit of work comments from
utility companies as part of the Final Form B submittal.
Deliverable: PDF copy of Form B submitted for Utility Company signature.

Dear Jeff,
We are following on our conversation regarding our design services contract for the Mission Road Rule 20A
Underground Utility District Project for City of South San Francisco. The Contract Enactment Number is RES
199-2018 and File Number is 18-269.
During the design services, City had requested additional services to prepare grading, drainage, and curb

are writing to request additional budget for the design services to continue our design services through
construction.
Additionally, City staff has requested some additional utility clearance and potholing to be completed at the
proposed PG&E Vault locations prior to issuance of the 100% Drawings. These proposed vaults will be staked
by our surveyor, and we have an included an allowance for a Utility locating Contractor to clear the vaults for
utilities. Some of the street light locations are in close proximity to the AT&T duct banks, we recommend
considering a custom streetlight footing design with the plans incase the light encounter utilities.
