Exhibit I: Scope of Work, Specifications and Response Format
As requested by the Stormwater Management Division (hereinafter, the “Division”), the Collier
County Board of County Commissioners Procurement Services Division (hereinafter, “County”)
has issued this Request for Proposal (hereinafter, “RFP”) with the intent of obtaining proposals
from interested and qualified Consultants in accordance with the terms, conditions and
specifications stated or attached. The Consultant, at a minimum, must achieve the
requirements of the Specifications or Scope of Work stated.
The results of this solicitation may be used by other County departments once awarded
according to the Board of County Commissioners Procurement Ordinance, as amended.
Brief Description of Purchase
The selected consultant(s) shall perform a comprehensive design of the County-owned roadside
drainage system and the City of Naples-owned sanitary sewer and potable water systems within
the area bounded by Goodlette-Frank Road to the east, US-41 to the west, Cypress Woods
Drive to the north, and Creech Road to the south to construct system renovations and new
facilities. The selected consultant(s) will demonstrate abilities to perform design, permitting,
bidding assistance and construction-related support services.
Background
The Stormwater Section staff has received drainage complaints in past years from residents
along various streets between Goodlette-Frank Road and US-41. At times these complaints
have also included septic system problems. The City of Naples has a “Master Sewer Plan for
the City’s Unsewered Service Areas” (MSPCUA) that was prepared in 2006. A copy of the
MSPCUA is attached to this Scope of Work. In an effort to address needed stormwater
improvements along these streets as well as provide sanitary sewer service to eliminate the
septic systems and disturb the neighborhood streets the least number of times, the County and
City have developed a joint project planning and construction effort. The sanitary sewer system,
and any incidental reconfigurations of the existing potable water facilities, will be a part of the
City of Naples Utilities systems, and the City’s design and construction specifications will be
utilized by the consultant. The stormwater management facilities will be a part of the Collier
County stormwater management system for roadside drainage and the County’s design and
construction specifications will be utilized by the consultant.
Detailed Scope of Work
The County is interested in contracting with a qualified engineering design firm to develop and
implement stormwater, sanitary sewer, and potable water infrastructure improvements in the
West Goodlette-Frank Road Area (a.k.a. West G-F Road Area) that is contained within Areas 4

to include, but not limited to the following:
1.01 Project Progress Meetings: The proposal will demonstrate the consultant’s
ability to schedule, attend and conduct bi-weekly progress meetings with County and
City representatives, as requested by the County’s Project Manager.
These progress meetings will extend throughout the program to keep the County and
City informed of the Project progress, to make certain that the engineer is
productively conducting its consulting services and to obtain input and direction as
required for outstanding project issues. Meeting objectives will be to provide
progress updates and reach decisions on pertinent issues relative to the specific
topics being addressed.
It is anticipated that the engineer will prepare and distribute agendas and minutes for
each meeting incorporating agenda items and meeting minute corrections provided
by the County. Agendas will be submitted to the County at least two days prior to the
meeting. Draft minutes will be submitted to the County no more than two working

17-7103 West Goodlette Frank Road Joint Stormwater-Sewer Project
6
days following each meeting; the County will provide comments no more than three
working days after receipt of draft minutes.
1.02 Public Information Meeting(s): The proposal will demonstrate the consultant’s ability
to schedule, attend and conduct public information meetings at various stages in the Project
to keep the impacted residents and owners and local officials informed on the progress and
Project direction. The proposal will identify the consultant’s concepts on when (at what
stage in the Project and not a specific date) the public information meetings should be held
and the type of information that would be available for viewing and discussion.
1.03 Public Relations Assistance: The proposal will demonstrate the consultant’s ability to
work with County and City staff in a coordinated public relations (PR) assistance program to
ensure the public is able to access available information about the Project, the information is
readily understandable, and the PR effort is responsive to requests. This PR effort will also
be coordinated through the Growth Management Department’s Community and Media
Relations section for any release of information or communication with local news media.
1.04 Graphics/Exhibit Preparation: The proposal will demonstrate the consultant’s ability
to work with County and City staff to prepare any needed graphics, exhibits, and/or
presentations that may be needed or used in any of the meetings and/or PR program. This

Task 2 – Preliminary Design
The proposal will identify the consultant’s conceptual thoughts on developing a design for
the stormwater and sanitary sewer collection components of the Project. Should the
proposed design include the use of innovative construction technologies, consultant shall
retain experts with expertise in using proposed technologies. The proposal will identify the
Consultant’s preliminary design abilities to include but not limited to the following:
The intent for the sanitary sewer portion of the Project is to follow the MSPCUA.
After reviewing the attached MSPCUA in order to prepare their proposal, the
consultant may be able to identify areas of modification for improved constructability,
improved service efficiency, and reduction in cost for both construction and
operation. The consultant is encouraged to not only demonstrate their ability to
prepare a design compatible with the MSPCUA, but also prepare a modified
preliminary design, including a discussion of what the modified preliminary design
entails.
The intent for the stormwater portion of the Project is to provide on-site stormwater
quality treatment and possible attenuation prior to discharge into the Goodlette-Frank
Road ditch. There are no identified locations for ponds which limits the stormwater
components to within the rights-of-way. Generally speaking, the streets utilize a
roadside swale system with driveway culverts and street cross drains. There are
limited areas where valley curb, inlets and storm drain piping are utilized. The
submitted proposal will provide preliminary design concepts on how the consultant
intends to address existing the street and yard flooding issues as well as improving
water quality being discharged into the existing channel along the west side of
Goodlette-Frank Road.
Relocations/modifications to existing potable water lines may be required and should
be included in the consultant’s design(s).

5.02.A General Administration of Construction Contract – The consultant will consult
with and advise the County regarding activities and issues that may arise during
construction of the Project, and may be authorized by the County to act as the County’s
representative as may be provided in the Standard General Conditions of the
construction contract documents.
5.02.B Site Visits and Observation of Construction – In connection with observations
of the work of the contractor while the Project construction is in progress, the consultant
will make visits to the site at intervals appropriate to the various stages of construction,
as mutually agreed by the County and consultant, in order to observe as a design
professional the general progress and quality of the various aspects of the contractor’s
work. Such visits and observations are not intended to be exhaustive or to extend to
every aspect of the work in progress, or to involve detailed inspections of the work.
Based upon information obtained during such site visits and observations, the consultant
will endeavor to determine in general if such work is proceeding in accordance with the
design concept and the design information shown in the construction contract
documents. The consultant will keep the County informed of the progress of such work.
5.02.C Clarifications and Interpretations for Work Change Directives/Change Orders –
The consultant will consult with the County on the need to issue necessary clarifications
and interpretations of the construction contract documents as appropriate for the orderly
completion of the work. Such clarifications and interpretations will be consistent with the
intent of, and reasonably inferable from, the construction contract documents. The
consultant will advise the County on the need or recommendation to issue work change
directives and/or change orders authorizing minor variations from the requirements of
the construction contract documents.
5.02.D Shop Drawings – The consultant will review and approve (or take other
appropriate action in respect of) shop drawings and samples and other data which the
contractor is required to submit, but only for conformance with the design information

documents and compatibility with the design concept of the completed Project as a
functioning whole as indicated in the construction contract documents. Such reviews
and approvals, or other action, will not extend to means, methods, techniques,
sequences or procedures of construction or to safety precautions and programs incident
thereto. This review will not include review of the accuracy or completeness of details
such as quantities, fabrication processes, construction means or methods, coordination
of the work with other trades or construction safety precautions, all of which are the sole
responsibility of the contractor. Review of a specific item will not indicate the consultant
has reviewed the entire assembly of which the item is a component. The consultant will
not be responsible for any deviations from the construction contract documents not
brought to the attention of the consultant in writing by the contractor. The consultant will
not be required to review partial submissions or those for which submissions of
correlated items have not been received.
The consultant shall provide the County with written approval (or other
appropriate action as needed) of shop drawings, samples, and other data
submitted for review by the contractor. The County makes the ultimate
determination of acceptance or other appropriate action.
The consultant shall provide the County written recommendations on the
evaluation and acceptability of substitute or “or-equal” materials and equipment
proposed by the contractor. The County makes the ultimate determination of
acceptance or other appropriate action.
5.02.E Inspections and Tests – The consultant may require and observe special
inspections or tests of the work and shall receive and review all certificates of
inspections, tests and approvals required by laws, rules, regulations, ordinances, codes,
orders, or the construction contract documents. The consultant’s review of such
certificates will be for the purpose of determining that the results certified indicate
compliance with the construction contract documents and will not constitute an
independent evaluation that the content or procedures of such inspections, tests or
approvals comply with the requirements of the construction contract documents. The
consultant will be entitled to rely on the results of such tests.
5.02.F Applications for Payment – Based upon the consultant’s on-site observations
as an experienced and qualified design professional, and upon review the applications
for payment and the accompanying data and schedules, the consultant shall make a
written recommendation to the County on the amounts that the contractor should be
paid.
5.02.G Contractor’s Completion Documents – The consultant will receive, review and
transmit to the County with written comments the maintenance and operating
instructions, schedules, guarantees, bonds, certificates or other evidence of insurance
required by the construction contract documents, certificates of inspection, tests and
approvals, and marked up record documents (including shop drawings, samples and
marked-up record drawings) which are to be assembled by the contractor in accordance
with the construction contract documents to obtain final payment. The consultant’s
review of such documents will only be to determine generally to the best of the
consultant’s knowledge, information and belief that their content complies with the
requirements of (and in the case of certificates of inspections, tests and approvals that
the results certified indicate compliance with) the construction contract documents.
5.02.H Substantial Completion – Following notice from the contractor that the
contractor considers the entire work ready for its intended use, the consultant and
RFP CCNA Template_11032016
17-7103 West Goodlette Frank Road Joint Stormwater-Sewer Project

County, accompanied by the contractor, shall conduct an inspection to determine if the
work is substantially complete. If, after discussing all identified issues of possible
objection with the County, the consultant considers the work substantially complete to
the best of the consultant’s knowledge, information, and belief per the conditions above,
the consultant shall deliver a certificate of substantial completion to the County.
5.02.I Final Notice of Acceptability of the Work – The consultant shall conduct a final
inspection with the County to determine if the completed work of the contractor is
acceptable so that the consultant may recommend to the County, in writing, final
payment to the contractor. Accompanying the recommendation for final payment, the
consultant shall also provide a notice that the work is acceptable (subject to the
provisions of the preceding paragraphs) to the best of the consultant’s knowledge,
information and belief and based on and limited to the extent of the services performed
and furnished by the consultant under the consultant’s agreement with the County.
5.02.J Record Drawings – The consultant, as engineer of record, will prepare record
drawings based upon measurements and information he has obtained through proper
surveying and measurement methods during the course of construction, and not relying
solely on information provided by the contractor.
5.02.K Project Certification – The consultant will prepare the appropriate

payment for any delivery of goods and/or services,
or any similar act by VENDOR.
3. Inspection
All goods and/or services delivered hereunder
shall be received subject to the COUNTY’S

pursuant to VENDOR'S instruction at VENDOR’S
expense.
To the extent that a purchase order requires a
series of performances by VENDOR, the

otherwise rejected by the COUNTY.

Time for delivery of goods or performance of
services under this Purchase Order is of the

performing systems engineering and technical direction for the procurement) which appears to
skew the competition in favor of my firm.
Impaired objectivity – The firm has not performed work on an affiliated past or current Collier

which calls into question the contractor’s ability to render impartial advice to the government.

contractor (or an affiliate) with an unfair competitive advantage in current or future solicitations and

1. All documents produced as a result of the work completed in the past or currently being

lock -outs, then CONSULTANT shall notify OWNER in writing within five (5) working days after

4.3. No interruption, interference, inefficiency, suspension or delay in the commencement or
progress of CONSULTANT'S services from any cause whatsoever, including those for which
OWNER may be responsible in whole or in part, shall relieve CONSULTANT of its duty to
perform or give rise to any right to damages or additional compensation from OWNER.
CONSULTANT'S sole remedy against OWNER will be the right to seek an extension of time to
its schedule provided, however, the granting of any such time extension shall not be a condition
precedent to the aforementioned "No Damage For Delay" provision. This paragraph shall
expressly apply to claims for early completion, as well as claims based on late completion.
Provided, however, if through no fault or neglect of CONSULTANT, the services to be provided
hereunder have been delayed for a total of 180 calendar days, CONSULTANT'S compensation

COMPENSATION
5.1. Compensation and the manner of payment of such compensation by the OWNER for
services rendered hereunder by CONSULTANT shall be as prescribed in Schedule B, entitled
"Basis of Compensation", which is attached hereto and made a part hereof. The Project
Manager, or designee, reserves the right to utilize any of the following Price Methodologies:
Lump Sum (Fixed Price): A firm fixed total price offering for a project; the risks are
transferred from the County to the Consultant; and, as a business practice there are no hourly or
material invoices presented, rather, the Consultant must perform to the satisfaction of the
County's project manager before payment for the fixed price contract is authorized.
Time and Materials: The County agrees to pay the contractor for the amount of labor
time spent by the Consultant 's employees and subcontractors to perform the work (number of
' I Contract # 17-7103 'West Goodlette Frank Road Joint Stormwater-Sewer Project/'
G. Grady Minor & Associates, P.
y P,
hours times hourly rate), and for materials and equipment used in the project (cost of materials
plus the contractor's mark up). This methodology is generally used in projects in which it is not
possible to accurately estimate the size of the project, or when it is expected that the project
requirements would most likely change. As a general business practice, these contracts include
back-up documentation of costs; invoices would include number of hours worked and billing rate
by position (and not company (or subcontractor) timekeeping or payroll records), material or
equipment invoices, and other reimbursable documentation for the project.
5.2. The hourly rates as set forth and identified in Schedule B, which is attached hereto, shall
apply only to tasks procured under the Time and Materials pricing methodology specified in
paragraph 5.1 above.

6.2. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary and without requiring OWNER
to pay any additional compensation, CONSULTANT hereby grants to OWNER a nonexclusive,
irrevocable license in all of the Project Documents for OWNER'S use on this Project.
CONSULTANT warrants to OWNER that it has full right and authority to grant this license to
OWNER. Further, CONSULTANT consents to OWNER'S use of the Project Documents to
complete the Project following CONSULTANT'S termination for any reason or to perform
additions to or remodeling, replacement or renovations of the Project. CONSULTANT also

SCOPE OF SERVICES
Collier County's Board of County Commission (BOCC) and the City of Naples City Council have
entered into an interlocal agreement to improve the West G -F Road project area's stormwater
attenuation and treatment; expand the City's wastewater system; and improve the City's water
service. In general, the West G -F Road Project involves the design of County -owned roadside
drainage system and City of Naples (City) owned sanitary sewer throughout the entire project area,
a linear distance of approximately 20,000 feet, and the City's potable water systems in select
regions of the project area, a linear distance of approximately 4,500 feet. Additionally, as part of
the proposed sanitary sewer system, two pump stations will be designed and the complete
rebuilding of the affected roadways will be designed. As understood, the West G -F Road project's
design needs to be complete and ready for construction advertisement by January 2018.
GradyMinor in general proposes to provide the following professional services related to West G -F

approximately 300 -foot centers and one at each of the proposed pump stations sites to a
depth of thirty (30) feet. The SPT borings will be located as close as reasonably feasible to
the proposed gravity sewer main alignment and pump station locations. Borings will be
backfilled with neat cement and then plugged with asphaltic concrete if in the street.
• Representative samples obtained during the SPT borings will be examined to obtain
accurate descriptions of the existing strata. Laboratory testing will be performed on
selected samples as deemed necessary to aid in soil classification and to further define the
engineering properties of the encountered materials. The soil descriptions will be based on
the visual classifications procedures in general accordance to the AASHTO Soil

Task 4b — Preparation of Notice of Intent (NOI) to use the Generic Permit for Discharge of
Ground Water from Dewatering Operations
Offsite discharge of produced groundwater requires submittal of a Notice of Intent (NOI) through
the FDEP NPDES program. The NOI that will be signed by the Owner/Applicant requires
certification that contaminants are not present in groundwater. We propose to prepare the NOI for
Owner signature, prepare an application letter, and to submit the form to the FDEP. The
application letter will include details regarding the dewatering plan, temporary storage/treatment of
dewatering effluent for turbidity, the location of offsite discharge points, and a review of potential
contaminated sites from FDEP databases. FDEP offsite discharge permits have a duration of 5
years.

If potential contaminated sites are identified near proposed dewatering areas (associated with
Task 4b), installation of temporary piezometer and limited groundwater testing for analysis of
selected metals and petroleum constituents may be necessary to prevent potential contaminant
migration. This work scope would include installation of a shallow well with hand tools, and
collection of groundwater samples for analysis of lead, and selected constituents of gasoline,
diesel, or dry-cleaning chemicals. Considering the size of the project area and the potential for
contaminated facilities along the US41 commercial corridor, we recommend budgeting three (3)
site -sampling events.
This task does not include groundwater modeling, site testing, wetlands assessments, or
ownership and authorization research.
