SERVICES TO BE PROVIDED BY THE ENGINEER
CONSTRUCTION PHASE
Part A
After acceptance by OWNER of the ENGINEER's Drawings, Specifications and other Design Phase
documentation (including the most recent opinion of probable Construction Cost), and upon written
authorization from OWNER to proceed, ENGINEER shall:
1. Assist OWNER in advertising for and obtaining bids for the contract for construction,
materials, equipment and services; and, where applicable, maintain a record of prospective
bidders to whom Bidding Documents have been issued, attend pre-bid conference, if any, and
receive and process deposits for Bidding Documents. ENGINEER shall distribute plans and
specifications from their office and keep a plan holders list.
2. Issue addenda as appropriate to clarify, correct or change the Bidding Documents.
3. Consult with OWNER as to acceptability of subcontractors, suppliers and other persons and
entities proposed by Contractor for those portions of the work as to which such acceptability is
required by the Bidding Documents.

5. Attend the bid opening, prepare bid tabulation sheets and assist OWNER in evaluating bids or
proposals and in assembling and awarding contracts for construction, materials, equipment and
services.
6. The Part A will terminate and the services to be performed or furnished thereunder will be
considered complete upon commencement of the Construction Phase, Part B, or upon cessation
of negotiations with prospective Contractors.
Part B
During Part B:
1. General Administration of Construction Contract
ENGINEER shall consult with and advise OWNER and act as OWNER's representative as
provided in the Standard General Conditions. The extent and limitations of the duties,
responsibilities and authority of ENGINEER as assigned in said Standard General Conditions
shall not be modified, except as ENGINEER may otherwise agree in writing. All of OWNER's
instructions to Contractor will be issued through ENGINEER who shall have authority to act
on behalf of OWNER in dealings with Contractor to the extent provided in this Agreement and
said Standard General Conditions except as otherwise provided in writing.
2. Visits to Site and Observation of Construction
In connection with observations of the work of Contractor while in progress:
a. ENGINEER shall make visits to the site at intervals appropriate to the various stages of
construction as ENGINEER deems necessary in order to observe as an experienced and
qualified design professional the progress and quality of the various aspects of
Contractor's work. Such visits and observations by ENGINEER 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 beyond the responsibilities specifically assigned to ENGINEER in
this Agreement and the Contract Documents, but rather are to be limited to spot checking,
selective sampling and similar methods of observation of the work based on
ENGINEER's exercise of professional judgment as assisted by the OWNER's Project
Representative. Based on information obtained during such visits and such observations,
ENGINEER shall endeavor to determine if such work is proceeding in accordance with
the Contract Documents and ENGINEER shall keep OWNER informed of the progress of
the work.
The purpose of ENGINEER's visits to the site will be to enable ENGINEER to better
carry out the duties and responsibilities assigned to and undertaken by ENGINEER during
the Construction Phase, Part B, and, in addition, by the exercise of ENGINEER's efforts
as an experienced and qualified design professional, to provide for OWNER a greater
degree of confidence that the completed work of Contractor will conform to the Contract
Documents and that the integrity of the design concept of the completed Project as a
functioning whole as indicated in the Contract Documents has been implemented and
preserved by Contractor. On the other hand, ENGINEER shall not, during such visits or
as a result of such observations of Contractor's work in progress, supervise, direct or have
control over Contractor's work nor shall ENGINEER have authority over or responsibility
for the means, methods, techniques, sequences or procedures of construction selected by
Contractor, for safety precautions and programs incident to the work of Contractor or for
any failure of Contractor to comply with laws, rules, regulations, ordinances, codes or
orders (other than orders emanating from OWNER or ENGINEER with respect to the
work, such as change orders) applicable to Contractor's furnishing and performing the
work.
3. Defective Work
During such visits on the basis of such observations, ENGINEER shall have authority and duty
to disapprove of or reject Contractor's work while it is in progress if ENGINEER believes that
such work will not produce a completed Project that conforms to the Contract Documents or
that it will prejudice the integrity of the design concept of the completed Project as a
functioning whole as indicated in the Contract Documents.
4. Clarifications and Interpretations; Field Orders.
ENGINEER shall issue necessary clarifications and interpretations of the Contract Documents
as appropriate to the orderly completion of the work. Such clarifications and interpretations
will be consistent with the intent of and reasonably inferable from the Contract Documents.
ENGINEER may issue Field Orders authorizing minor variations from the requirements of the
Contract Documents.
5. Change Orders and Work Change Directives
ENGINEER shall recommend Change Orders and Work Change Directives to OWNER as
appropriate, and shall prepare Change Orders and Work Change Directives as required. If
requested by OWNER, ENGINEER will be in attendance at the City Council meeting to
describe the necessity for the Change Order.
6. Shop Drawings
ENGINEER shall review and approve (or take other appropriate action in respect of) Shop
Drawings and Samples and other data which Contractor is required to submit, but only for
conformance with the information given in the Contract Documents and compatibility with the
design concept of the completed Project as a functioning whole as indicated in the 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.
7. Substitutes
ENGINEER shall evaluate and determine the acceptability of substitute or "or -equal" materials
and equipment proposed by Contractor.
8. Inspections and Tests
ENGINEER may require 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 Contract Documents. ENGINEER's review of such certificates
will be for the purpose of determining that the results certified indicate compliance with the
Contract Documents and will not constitute an independent evaluation that the content or
procedures of such inspections, test or approvals comply with the requirements of the Contract
Documents. ENGINEER shall be entitled to rely on the results of such tests.
9. Disagreements between OWNER and Contractor
ENGINEER shall render the initial decisions on all claims of OWNER and Contractor relating
to the acceptability of the work or the interpretation of the requirements of the Contract
Documents pertaining to the execution and progress of the work. In rendering such decisions,
ENGINEER shall be fair and impartial to OWNER and Contractor to ensure the work complies
with the requirements of the Contract Documents, and shall not be liable for the rendering of
any decision made in good faith in such capacity.
10. Applications for Payment
Based on ENGINEER's on-site observations as an experienced and qualified design
professional and on review of Applications for Payment and the accompanying data and
schedules:
a. ENGINEER shall determine the amounts that ENGINEER recommends Contractor be
paid. Such recommendations of payment will be in writing and will constitute
ENGINEER's representation to OWNER, based on such observations and review, that, to
the best of ENGINEER's knowledge, information and belief, the work has progressed to
the point indicated, the quality of such work is in accordance with the Contract
Documents (subject to an evaluation of such work as a functioning whole prior to or upon
Substantial Completion, to the results of any subsequent tests called for in the Contract
Documents and to any other qualifications stated in the recommendation), and the
conditions precedent to Contractor's being entitled to such payment appear to have been
fulfilled in so far as it is ENGINEER's responsibility to observe the work. In the case of
unit price work, ENGINEER's recommendations of payment will include final
determinations of quantities and classifications of such work (subject to any subsequent
adjustments allowed by the Contract Documents). The responsibilities of ENGINEER
contained in Paragraph a. are expressly subject to the limitations set forth in Paragraph b.
and other express or general limitations in the Agreement and elsewhere.
b. By recommending any payment ENGINEER shall not thereby be deemed to have
represented that on-site observations made by ENGINEER to check the quality or
quantity of Contractor's work as it is performed and furnished have been exhaustive,
extended to every aspect of the work in progress, or involved detailed inspections of the
work beyond the responsibilities specifically assigned to ENGINEER in this Agreement
and the Contract Documents. Neither ENGINEER's review of Contractor's work for the
purposes of recommending payments nor ENGINEER's recommendation of any payment
(including final payment) will impose on ENGINEER responsibility to supervise, direct
or control such work or for the means, methods, techniques, sequences or procedures of
construction or safety precautions or programs incident thereto, or Contractor's
compliance with laws, rules, regulations, ordinances, codes or orders applicable to
Contractor's furnishing and performing the work. It will also not impose responsibility on
ENGINEER to make any examination to ascertain how or for what purposes Contractor
has used the moneys paid on account of the Contract Price, or to determine that title to
any of the work, materials or equipment has passed to OWNER free and clear of any
liens, claims, security interests or encumbrances, or that there may not be other matters at
issue between OWNER and Contractor that might affect the amount that should be paid.
11. Contractor's Completion Documents
ENGINEER shall receive, review and transmit to OWNER with written comments
maintenance and operating instructions, schedules, guarantees, Bonds, certificates or other
evidence of insurance required by the Contract Documents, certificates of inspection, tests and
approvals, and marked -up record documents (including Shop Drawings, Samples and other
data approved as provided under Paragraph 6 and marked -up record Drawings) which are to be
assembled by Contractor in accordance with the Contract Documents to obtain final payment.
ENGINEER's review of such documents will only be to determine 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 Contract Documents.
12. Substantial Completion
Following notice from Contractor that Contractor considers the entire work ready for its
intended use, ENGINEER and OWNER, accompanied by Contractor, shall conduct an
inspection to determine if the work is substantially complete. If after considering any
objections of OWNER, ENGINEER considers the work substantially complete, ENGINEER
shall deliver a Certificate of Substantial Completion to OWNER and Contractor. The
Certificate of Substantial Completion shall only allow OWNER to begin operation of the item
constructed hereunder, but shall not constitute final acceptance of the work or Certificate of
Final Completion.
13. Final Notice of Acceptability of the Work
ENGINEER shall conduct a final inspection to determine if the completed work of Contractor
is acceptable so that ENGINEER may recommend, in writing, final payment to Contractor.
Accompanying the recommendation for final payment, ENGINEER shall indicate that the work
is acceptable (subject to the provisions of Paragraph 10.b.) to the best of ENGINEER's
knowledge, information and belief and based on the extent of the services performed and
furnished by ENGINEER under this Agreement.
14. ENGINEER's Completion Documents
ENGINEER shall utilize the marked -up contract drawings from the Contractor, with the
assistance of the OWNER's representative, to provide Record Drawings of the completed
Project. ENGINEER shall furnish one set of reproducible drawings and one set of prints of
these revised drawings to the OWNER.
As an accommodation to the OWNER, ENGINEER agrees to provide OWNER an electronic
copy of the AutoCAD readable disk used by CDM to develop the Record Drawings for the
project. The Record Drawings shall be provided in AutoCAD format using no version higher
than 14. OWNER is aware of the potential errors that may arise through the electronic copying
of the disk. OWNER recognizes that the information contained on the floppy disk may not
include all information which is included in the Record Drawings. The hard copy of the
Record Drawings containing the engineer's professional engineering stamp shall take
precedence over the floppy disk.
The floppy disks are provided to OWNER "as is" and any use of the disk or the information
contained on the disk is at the sole risk of the OWNER and without any liability or legal
exposure to ENGINEER.
15. Limitations of Responsibilities
ENGINEER agrees to inspect work and perform the duties specified in this contract in a
reasonable manner, but does not guarantee the discovery of Contractor's failure to comply with
the Contract Documents if a reasonable engineer in ENGINEER's position would not have
discovered such failure.
16. Duration of Construction Phase, Part B
The Construction Phase, Part B, will commence with the execution of the construction contract
for the Project or any part thereof and will terminate upon written recommendation by
ENGINEER of final payment.

PURPOSE. PASSION. PROSPERITY
DATE: October 17, 2003
SUBJECT: City Council Meeting - October 23, 2003
ITEM: *11.E.3. Consider a resolution authorizing the Mayor to execute an
Agreement for Engineering Services with Camp Dresser &
McKee, Inc. for the design of the Water Treatment Plant's
Off -Site Wastewater Line Improvements.
Resource: Tom Word, Chief of P. W. Operations
Tom Clark, Director of Utilities
History: Wash water from the water treatment process is discharged into the
city sanitary sewerage system, via the wastewater line, which is herein
being considered for replacement. These discharges over the year
have greatly reduced the capacity and serviceability of this wastewater
line.
With the upcoming plant expansion and the acquisition of the TPDES
(Texas Pollutant Discharge Elimination System) these discharges will
no longer go through the wastewater line. Therefore, the new
wastewater line will only carry sanitary sewer flows from the Water
Treatment Plant reducing our wastewater treatment cost to LCRA, and
greatly increase the service life of the new line.
This resolution is required, because the contract time was not
extended prior to the original May 31, 2003 termination date. The
project is scheduled to bid in December, however this will be
dependent on acquiring the Temporary Construction Easements from
Texas Crushed Stone and License agreement from Georgetown
Railroad.
Funding:
Cost: $11,000
Source of funds: Capital Project Funds (Self -Financed Utility)
Outside Resources: Camp, Dresser and McKee, Inc. (CDM)
Impact/Benefit: Avoid the treatment costs to LCRA to treat the plants wash
water flows. Eliminated unauthorized sanitary sewer discharges.

SERVICES TO BE PROVIDED BY THE ENGINEER
CONSTRUCTION PHASE
Part A
After acceptance by OWNER of the ENGINEER's Drawings, Specifications and other Design Phase
documentation (including the most recent opinion of probable Construction Cost), and upon written
authorization from OWNER to proceed, ENGINEER shall:
1. Assist OWNER in advertising for and obtaining bids for the contract for construction,
materials, equipment and services; and, where applicable, maintain a record of prospective
bidders to whom Bidding Documents have been issued, attend pre-bid conference, if any, and
receive and process deposits for Bidding Documents. ENGINEER shall distribute plans and
specifications from their office and keep a plan holders list.
2. Issue addenda as appropriate to clarify, correct or change the Bidding Documents.

of negotiations with prospective Contractors.
Part B
During Part B:
1. General Administration of Construction Contract
ENGINEER shall consult with and advise OWNER and act as OWNER's representative as
provided in the Standard General Conditions. The extent and limitations of the duties,
responsibilities and authority of ENGINEER as assigned in said Standard General Conditions
shall not be modified, except as ENGINEER may otherwise agree in writing. All of OWNER's
instructions to Contractor will be issued through ENGINEER who shall have authority to act
on behalf of OWNER in dealings with Contractor to the extent provided in this Agreement and
said Standard General Conditions except as otherwise provided in writing.
2. Visits to Site and Observation of Construction
In connection with observations of the work of Contractor while in progress:
a. ENGINEER shall make visits to the site at intervals appropriate to the various stages of
construction as ENGINEER deems necessary in order to observe as an experienced and
qualified design professional the progress and quality of the various aspects of
Contractor's work. Such visits and observations by ENGINEER 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 beyond the responsibilities specifically assigned to ENGINEER in
this Agreement and the Contract Documents, but rather are to be limited to spot checking,
selective sampling and similar methods of observation of the work based on
ENGINEER's exercise of professional judgment as assisted by the OWNER's Project
Representative. Based on information obtained during such visits and such observations,
ENGINEER shall endeavor to determine if such work is proceeding in accordance with
the Contract Documents and ENGINEER shall keep OWNER informed of the progress of
the work.
The purpose of ENGINEER's visits to the site will be to enable ENGINEER to better
carry out the duties and responsibilities assigned to and undertaken by ENGINEER during
the Construction Phase, Part B, and, in addition, by the exercise of ENGINEER's efforts
as an experienced and qualified design professional, to provide for OWNER a greater
degree of confidence that the completed work of Contractor will conform to the Contract
Documents and that the integrity of the design concept of the completed Project as a
functioning whole as indicated in the Contract Documents has been implemented and
preserved by Contractor. On the other hand, ENGINEER shall not, during such visits or
as a result of such observations of Contractor's work in progress, supervise, direct or have
control over Contractor's work nor shall ENGINEER have authority over or responsibility
for the means, methods, techniques, sequences or procedures of construction selected by
Contractor, for safety precautions and programs incident to the work of Contractor or for
any failure of Contractor to comply with laws, rules, regulations, ordinances, codes or
orders (other than orders emanating from OWNER or ENGINEER with respect to the
work, such as change orders) applicable to Contractor's furnishing and performing the
work.
3. Defective Work
During such visits on the basis of such observations, ENGINEER shall have authority and duty
to disapprove of or reject Contractor's work while it is in progress if ENGINEER believes that
such work will not produce a completed Project that conforms to the Contract Documents or
that it will prejudice the integrity of the design concept of the completed Project as a
functioning whole as indicated in the Contract Documents.
4. Clarifications and Interpretations; Field Orders.
ENGINEER shall issue necessary clarifications and interpretations of the Contract Documents
as appropriate to the orderly completion of the work. Such clarifications and interpretations
will be consistent with the intent of and reasonably inferable from the Contract Documents.
ENGINEER may issue Field Orders authorizing minor variations from the requirements of the
Contract Documents.
5. Change Orders and Work Change Directives
ENGINEER shall recommend Change Orders and Work Change Directives to OWNER as
appropriate, and shall prepare Change Orders and Work Change Directives as required. If
requested by OWNER, ENGINEER will be in attendance at the City Council meeting to
describe the necessity for the Change Order.
6. Shop Drawings
ENGINEER shall review and approve (or take other appropriate action in respect of) Shop
Drawings and Samples and other data which Contractor is required to submit, but only for
conformance with the information given in the Contract Documents and compatibility with the
design concept of the completed Project as a functioning whole as indicated in the 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.
7. Substitutes
ENGINEER shall evaluate and determine the acceptability of substitute or "or -equal" materials
and equipment proposed by Contractor.
8. Inspections and Tests
ENGINEER may require 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 Contract Documents. ENGINEER's review of such certificates
will be for the purpose of determining that the results certified indicate compliance with the
Contract Documents and will not constitute an independent evaluation that the content or
procedures of such inspections, test or approvals comply with the requirements of the Contract
Documents. ENGINEER shall be entitled to rely on the results of such tests.
9. Disagreements between OWNER and Contractor
ENGINEER shall render the initial decisions on all claims of OWNER and Contractor relating
to the acceptability of the work or the interpretation of the requirements of the Contract
Documents pertaining to the execution and progress of the work. In rendering such decisions,
ENGINEER shall be fair and impartial to OWNER and Contractor to ensure the work complies
with the requirements of the Contract Documents, and shall not be liable for the rendering of
any decision made in good faith in such capacity.
10. Applications for Payment
Based on ENGINEER's on-site observations as an experienced and qualified design
professional and on review of Applications for Payment and the accompanying data and
schedules:
a. ENGINEER shall determine the amounts that ENGINEER recommends Contractor be
paid. Such recommendations of payment will be in writing and will constitute
ENGINEER's representation to OWNER, based on such observations and review, that, to
the best of ENGINEER'S knowledge, information and belief, the work has progressed to
the point indicated, the quality of such work is in accordance with the Contract
Documents (subject to an evaluation of such work as a functioning whole prior to or upon
Substantial Completion, to the results of any subsequent tests called for in the Contract
Documents and to any other qualifications stated in the recommendation), and the
conditions precedent to Contractor's being entitled to such payment appear to have been
fulfilled in so far as it is ENGINEER's responsibility to observe the work. In the case of
unit price work, ENGINEER's recommendations of payment will include final
determinations of quantities and classifications of such work (subject to any subsequent
adjustments allowed by the Contract Documents). The responsibilities of ENGINEER
contained in Paragraph a. are expressly subject to the limitations set forth in Paragraph b.
and other express or general limitations in the Agreement and elsewhere.
b. By recommending any payment ENGINEER shall not thereby be deemed to have
represented that on-site observations made by ENGINEER to check the quality or
quantity of Contractor's work as it is performed and furnished have been exhaustive,
extended to every aspect of the work in progress, or involved detailed inspections of the
work beyond the responsibilities specifically assigned to ENGINEER in this Agreement
and the Contract Documents. Neither ENGINEER's review of Contractor's work for the
purposes of recommending payments nor ENGINEER's recommendation of any payment
(including final payment) will impose on ENGINEER responsibility to supervise, direct
or control such work or for the means, methods, techniques, sequences or procedures of
construction or safety precautions or programs incident thereto, or Contractor's
compliance with laws, rules, regulations, ordinances, codes or orders applicable to
Contractor's furnishing and performing the work. It will also not impose responsibility on
ENGINEER to make any examination to ascertain how or for what purposes Contractor
has used the moneys paid on account of the Contract Price, or to determine that title to
any of the work, materials or equipment has passed to OWNER free and clear of any
liens, claims, security interests or encumbrances, or that there may not be other matters at
issue between OWNER and Contractor that might affect the amount that should be paid.
11. Contractor's Completion Documents
ENGINEER shall receive, review and transmit to OWNER with written comments
maintenance and operating instructions, schedules, guarantees, Bonds, certificates or other
evidence of insurance required by the Contract Documents, certificates of inspection, tests and
approvals, and marked -up record documents (including Shop Drawings, Samples and other
data approved as provided under Paragraph 6 and marked -up record Drawings) which are to be
assembled by Contractor in accordance with the Contract Documents to obtain final payment.
ENGINEER's review of such documents will only be to determine 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 Contract Documents.
12. Substantial Completion
Following notice from Contractor that Contractor considers the entire work ready for its
intended use, ENGINEER and OWNER, accompanied by Contractor, shall conduct an
inspection to determine if the work is substantially complete. If after considering any
objections of OWNER, ENGINEER considers the work substantially complete, ENGINEER
shall deliver a Certificate of Substantial Completion to OWNER and Contractor. The
Certificate of Substantial Completion shall only allow OWNER to begin operation of the item
constructed hereunder, but shall not constitute final acceptance of the work or Certificate of
Final Completion.
13. Final Notice of Acceptability of the Work
ENGINEER shall conduct a final inspection to determine if the completed work of Contractor
is acceptable so that ENGINEER may recommend, in writing, final payment to Contractor.
Accompanying the recommendation for final payment, ENGINEER shall indicate that the work
is acceptable (subject to the provisions of Paragraph 10.b.) to the best of ENGINEER's
knowledge, information and belief and based on the extent of the services performed and
furnished by ENGINEER under this Agreement.
14. ENGINEER's Completion Documents
ENGINEER shall utilize the marked -up contract drawings from the Contractor, with the
assistance of the OWNER's representative, to provide Record Drawings of the completed
Project. ENGINEER shall furnish one set of reproducible drawings and one set of prints of
these revised drawings to the OWNER.
As an accommodation to the OWNER, ENGINEER agrees to provide OWNER an electronic
copy of the AutoCAD readable disk used by CDM to develop the Record Drawings for the
project. The Record Drawings shall be provided in AutoCAD format using no version higher
than 14. OWNER is aware of the potential errors that may arise through the electronic copying
of the disk. OWNER recognizes that the information contained on the floppy disk may not
include all information which is included in the Record Drawings. The hard copy of the
Record Drawings containing the engineer's professional engineering stamp shall take
precedence over the floppy disk.
The floppy disks are provided to OWNER "as is" and any use of the disk or the information
contained on the disk is at the sole risk of the OWNER and without any liability or legal
exposure to ENGINEER.
15. Limitations of Responsibilities
ENGINEER agrees to inspect work and perform the duties specified in this contract in a
reasonable manner, but does not guarantee the discovery of Contractor's failure to comply with
the Contract Documents if a reasonable engineer in ENGINEER's position would not have
discovered such failure.
16. Duration of Construction Phase, Part B
The Construction Phase, Part B, will commence with the execution of the construction contract
for the Project or any part thereof and will terminate upon written recommendation by
ENGINEER of final payment.
