AGENDA ITEM DATf, J C2-R On February ot 2012, Pure Technologies submitted a Condition Assessment Report of the existing 54" Pre- Stressed Concrete Cylinder Pipe (PCCP) force main connecting to the Government Cut force main. lt was discovered of the 260 pipes analyzed, 8 pipes (3olo) were found with electromagnetic anomalies representing broken steel pre-stressing wire wraps. Although these anomalies do not pose an imminent threat to the performance of the City's sanitary sewer service, a redundant 54" force main would ensure sanitary sewer service in the event of an emergency or during malntenance. The force main is of importance since the existing 54" force main conveys the City's entire sanitary sewer to the water treatment plant on Virginia Key. In addition the intent would be to rehabilitate the existing 54" force main's electromagnetic anomalies after bringing the proposed 54" force main into service. The City shall prepare the Design Criteria Package for the Project that will serve to define the design requirements for development of construction documents by the selected Design Build Firm (DBF), and for submission of their price proposal. The Project consists of micro-tunneling for the installation of the 54" force main, open trench construction at the launch and retrieval shafts, possible replacement, restoration, relocation or abandonment of existing water and/or sewer facilities, maintenance of traffic, landscaping, restoration of disturbed drainage features, roadway reconstruction / pavement markings, repair and/or extension of existing sidewalks to comply with ADA requirements, and the incorporation and the undergrounding of utilities, including Florida Power and Light (FPL), Atlantic Broadband (ABB) and AT&T. The City Commission's approval of this item will allow staff to initiate the appropriate procurement process by advertising the RFP for design build services for the Project. The DBF selected pursuant to the RFP will be responsible for the design and construction associated with the Project. The contractwith the successful DBFwill be awarded in accordance with the established requirements for award of design build contracts.

DESIGN/BUILD FIRM shall be responsible for proper storage and safeguarding of all Materials and equipment. lf required by the Contract Administrator, DESIGN/BUILD FIRM shall furnish satisfactory evidence as to the kind and quality of Materials and equipment. The warranty requirements set forth in the Contract Documents as herein defined shall govern warranty terms and conditions for all warranty items expressed or implied. The DESIGN/BUILD FIRM'S warranty period under this Article shall be one (1) year from the date of Substantial Completion of the Project.

Continued failure or refusal on the part of DESIGN/BUILD FIRM to make any or all necessary repairs promptly, fully, and in acceptable manner shall be sufficient cause for CITY to declare this Agreement terminated, in which case CITY, at its option, may purchase Materials, tools, and equipment, and employ Iabor, or may contract with any other individual, firm or corporation, or may proceed with its own forces, to perform the work. All costs and expenses incurred thereby shall be charged against the defaulting DESIGN/BUILD FIRM, and the amount thereof deducted from any monies due, or which may become due, to DESIGN/BUILD FIRM, or shall be charged against the bond (or other guaranty). Any special work performed, as described herein, shall not relieve DESIGN/BUILD FIRM in any way from its responsibility for the work performed by it. 14 | RFP 20r4-25s-YG 102 27.04 Failure to reject any defective work or Materials shall not in any way prevent later rejection when such defect is discovered, or obligate CITY to final acceptance. ARTICLE 28 SUBCONTRACTS 28.01 DESIGN/BUILD FIRM shall, at such times as DESIGN/BUILD FIRM decides which Subcontractors will perform the various portions of the Work, promptly notify the Contract Administrator, in writing, of the names of Subcontractors for the Project, and identify the portion of the Work for the Project each will perform.

DESIGN/BUILD FIRM'S failure to so inspect and report shall constitute an acceptance of the other contraclor's work as fit and proper for the reception of DESIGN/BUILD FIRM'S Work, except as to defects which may develop in other contractor's work after the execution of DESIGN/BUILD FIRM'S Work. However, DESIGN/BUILD FIRM shall not be responsible or liable to CITY for any work performed by any other separate contractor not under the auspices or control of DESIGNiBUILD FIRM. 29.03 To insure the proper execution of its subsequent Work, DESIGNiBUILD FIRM shall inspect the work already in place and shall at once report to the Contract Administrator any discrepancy between the executed work and the requirements of the Contract Documents. ARTICLE 30 CITY'S OPTION FOR USE OF COMPLETED PORTIONS 30.01 ln the event of Substantial Completion of a portion of the Prolect, which determination and option shall be solely and exclusively within the CITY's authority and discretion whether to allow and accept Substantial Gompletion of a portion or portions of the Project (versus requiring Substantial Completion of the entire Project at one time), CITY shall have the right to take possession of, for maintenance and/or for use, of any such completed or partially completed portion(s) of the Project. However, prior to any possession, a punch list will be issued for the area to be occupied. Such possession and use shall not be deemed an acceptance of any Work not completed in accordance with the Contract Documents. 751 RFP 2Ot4-253-YG 103 lf such possession or use delays the Project, DESIGN/BUILD FIRM may be entitled to a reasonable extension of time as determined by Contract Administrator. 30.02 ln the event CITY takes possession, the following shall occur: 30.02.01 CITY shall give notice to DESIGN/BUILD FIRM at least thirty (30) calendar days in advance on intent to occupy a designated area. 30.02.02 DESIGN/BUILD FIRM shall bring the designated area to point of Substantial Completion. When DESIGN/BUILD FIRM considers that the designated area of the Project is substantially complete, DESIGN/BUILD FIRM shall so notify the Contract Administrator, in writing, and shall prepare for submission to the Contract Administrator a list of items to be completed or corrected. The failure to include any items on such list does not alter the responsibility of DESIGN/BUILD FIRM to complete work on the designated area in accordance with the Contract Documents. The Contract Administrator shall conduct an inspection to determine that the designated portion of the Project is substantially complete. The Contract Administrator will then instruct DESIGN/BUILD FIRM to deliver to CITY a Certificate of Occupancy (CO) pertinent to the designated portion, which CO shall be issued by the appropriate authority having jurisdiction over the Project. The Contract Administrator and DESIGN/BUILD FIRM shall agree on the time within which DESIGN/BUILD FIRM shall complete the items listed. 30.02.03 Upon issuance and acceptance of Certificate of Substantial Completion, CITY will assume full responsibility for maintenance, utilities, subsequent damages of CITY and public, adjustment of insurance coverages and start of warranty for occupied area.
