The Engineer shall render the following professional services necessary for the
development of the Project:
1
A. PRELIMINARY PHASE
1. Attend preliminary conference with the Owner regarding the Project.
2. Perform preliminary engineering services in connection with Project in
sufficient detail to indicate clearly the problems involved and the alternate
solutions available to the Owner, to include preliminary layouts, sketches
and cost estimates for the Project, and to set forth clearly the Engineer's
recommendations. If called for by the scope of the assignment, prepare a
preliminary engineering report.
3. When a written report is prepared, furnish the Owner ten (10) copies of the
preliminary report, including preliminary layouts, sketches and cost
estimates.
B. DESIGN PHASE
1. Establish the scope, and advise the Owner, of any soil and foundation
investigations or any special surveys or special testing which, in the opinion
of the Engineer, may be required for the proper execution of the Project;
and arrange with the Owner for the conduct of such investigations and
tests. (The performance of these investigations and tests is not a part of
the Engineer's basic services, and compensation therefore is not included
in the Basic Charge; it may be performed by the Engineer, by agreement
with the Owner, in which case compensation shall be determined by the
applicable portions of Section VI A).
2. Furnish to the Owner, where required by the circumstances of the
assignment, the engineering data necessary for applications for routine
permits by local, state, and federal authorities (as distinguished from
detailed applications and supporting documents for government grants -in-
aid, state loan programs, planning advances or to meet the requirements
of the special programs of the federal government).
3. Perform field surveys to collect information which in the opinion of the
Engineer, is required in the design of the Project and provide baseline
control points and bench marks for Contractor's use in staking the project
for Construction. Construction staking for the Construction Improvement is
not included in the Basic Charge.
4. Prepare detailed specifications and contract drawings, in AutoCadd format
for construction authorized by the Owner. These designs shall in all
respects combine the application of sound engineering principles with a high
2
degree of economy, and shall be submitted to the applicable state and
federal agencies for approval. Engineer shall deliver to Owner discs with
AutoGadd files. Engineer shall deliver to Owner ink on mylar Record
Drawings.
5. Prepare detaiied cost estimates and proposals of authorized construction,
which shall include summaries of bid items and quantities which will be
based, wherever practical, on the unit price system of bidding. The
Engineer shall not be required to guarantee the accuracy of these
estimates.
6. Furnish the Owner all necessary copies of approved plans, specifications,
notices to bidders, and proposals. All sets of plans and specifications in
excess of twenty -five (25) are to be paid for separately. Additional sets will
be paid for in accordance with Attachment No. 3 - Hourly Rate Schedule.
7. Provide information on utilities to be relocated in connection with the project.
The Owner will provide excavation to determine location and depth of
underground water and sewer lines. Utilities to be relocated by others shall
be noted on the plans. City -owned utilities to be relocated also shall be
noted on the plans. Where feasible, relocation of City -owned utilities shall
be included in the construction contract.
8. Provide a letter for the Owner's signature to each utility operating within the
City of Round Rock advising them of the project and describing any known
relocations to be performed by that utility and setting forth a proposed
construction schedule. This letter and a complete set of plans shall be
delivered to each utility by the Engineer. The Engineer shall provide timely
assistance and location stakes as necessary for utility relocations so that
utility relocations do not delay the project.
9. Provide easement and right -of -way descriptions to the Owner in conjunction
with submission of final plans. These will be provided in the form of field
notes and drawing of the affected properties.
10. Provide field note descriptions to the Owner for any site(s) that is required
for Owner to acquire that is associated with this Project. These descriptions
will be provided within thirty (30) days after authorization by Owner, barring
unforeseen and unusual difficulties associated with the property.
11. Perform a line sizing /terminal storage feasibility study. Owner will provide
Engineer data on existing per capita water use, ratios of average day to
maximum day demands, projected population, and the portion of the total
demand met by groundwater. Engineer will perform an economic analysis
3
to determine if terminal storage at the water treatment plant can be
economically justified by savings in line construction costs and /or capitalized
energy costs. Results of the analysis will be presented to the Owner as a
Technical Memorandum.
12. Perform a surge analysis of the proposed line to determine if a pipe design
with a liberal allowance for surge protection is required. Results of the
analysis will be presented to the Owner as a Technical Memorandum.
13. Prepare plans detailing the interconnection between the Owner's Barton Hill
Water Storage Tank and the City of Georgetown's Rabbit Hill Water Storage
Tank. The interconnection will be bid as part of the raw water line, but
itemized separately, to reduce costs of plan preparation, advertisement
costs and construction services cost.
C. CONSTRUCTION PHASE
1. Assist the Owner in the advertisement of the Project for bids.
2. Assist the Owner in the opening and tabulating of bids for construction of
the Project, and recommend to the Owner as to the proper action on all
proposals received.
3. Assist in the preparation of formal Contract Documents for the contracts.
4. Make periodic visits to the site (as distinguished from the continuous
services of a resident Project Representative described in Subparagraph 6
below) to observe the progress and quality of the executed work and to
determine in general if the work is proceeding in accordance with the
Contract Documents. In performing this service, the Engineer will not be
required to make exhaustive or continuous on -site inspections to check the
quality or quantity of the work or material; he will not be responsible for the
techniques and sequences of construction or the safety precautions incident
thereto, and he will not be responsible or liable in any degree for the
contractors' failure to perform the construction work in accordance with the
Contract Documents. During visits to the construction site, and on the basis
of the Engineer's on -site observations as an experienced and qualified
design professional, he will keep the Owner informed of the extent of the
progress of the work, and advise the Owner of material and substantial
defects and deficiencies in the work of contractors which are discovered by
the Engineer or otherwise brought to the Engineer's attention in the course
of construction, and may, on behalf of the Owner, exercise whatever rights
4
the Owner may have to disapprove work and materials as failing to conform
to the Contract Documents.
5. Consult and advise with the Owner; issue all instructions to the contractor
requested by the Owner; and prepare routine change orders as required.
6. If specifically authorized by the Owner in writing, furnish the services of
resident Project Representatives, and other field personnel for continuous
on- the -site observation of construction and for the performance of required
construction layout surveys. (This service is not a part of the Engineer's
basic services, and compensation therefore is not included in the Basic
Charge; if provided, compensation shall be determined under Section VI A.)
The authority and duties of such Resident Project Representatives are
limited to examining the material furnished and observing the work done,
and to reporting their findings to the Engineer. The Engineer will use the
usual degree of care and prudent judgment in the selection of competent
Project Representatives, and the Engineer will use diligence to see that the
Project Representatives are on the job to perform their required duties. It
is agreed, however, that the Engineer does not underwrite, guarantee, or
insure the work done by the contractors, and since it is the contractors'
responsibility to perform the work in accordance with the Contract
Documents, the Engineer is not responsible or liable for the contractors'
failure to do so, and, so long as Engineer has exercised the usual degree
of care and prudent judgment in selecting Project Representatives and has
used diligence to see that they are on the job to perform the work, failure
by any Project Representatives or other personnel engaged in on- the -site
observation to discover defects or deficiencies in the work of the contractors
shall never relieve the contractors of liability therefore or subject the
Engineer to any liability for any such defect or deficiencies. Engineer
(RPR) will not be responsible for the techniques and sequences of
construction or the safety precautions incident thereto, and he will not be
responsible or liable in any degree for the contractors' failure to perform the
construction work in accordance with the Contract Documents.
7. Review samples, catalog data, schedules, shop drawings, laboratory, shop
and mill tests of materials and equipment and other data which the
contractor is required to submit, only for conformance with the design
concept of the Project and compliance with the information given by the
Contract Documents; and assemble written guarantees which are required
by the Contract Documents.
8. Review monthly and final estimates for payments to contractors, and furnish
to the Owner any necessary certifications as to payments to contractors and
suppliers in a form acceptable to the City.

9. Conduct, in company with the Owner, a final inspection of the Project for
conformance with the design concept of the Project and compliance with the
Contract Documents, and approve in writing final payment to the
contractors.
10. Revise contract drawings, with the assistance of the resident Project
Representatives, or the Owners representative, to provide record drawings
of the completed Project. Fumish one set of reproducible drawings and one
set of prints of there revised drawings to the Owner.

degree of economy, and shall be submitted to the applicable state and
federal agencies for approval. Engineer shall deliver to Owner discs with
AutoCadd files. Engineer shall deliver to Owner ink on mylar Record
Drawings.
5. Prepare detailed cost estimates and proposals of authorized construction,
which shall include summaries of bid items and quantities which will be
based, wherever practical, on the unit price system of bidding. The
Engineer shall not be required to guarantee the accuracy of these
estimates.
6. Fumish the Owner all necessary copies of approved plans, specifications,
notices to bidders, and proposals. All sets of plans and specifications in
excess of twenty -five (25) are to be paid for separately. Additional sets will
be paid for in accordance with Attachment No. 3 - Hourly Rate Schedule.
7. Provide information on utilities to be relocated in connection with the project.
The Owner will provide excavation to determine location and depth of
underground water and sewer lines. Utilities to be relocated by others shall
be noted on the plans. City -owned utilities to be relocated also shall be
noted on the plans. Where feasible, relocation of City -owned utilities shall
be included in the construction contract.
8. Provide a letter for the Owner's signature to each utility operating within the
City of Round Rock advising them of the project and describing any known
relocations to be performed by that utility and setting forth a proposed
construction schedule. This letter and a complete set of plans shall be
delivered to each utility by the Engineer. The Engineer shall provide timely
assistance and location stakes as necessary for utility relocations so that
utility relocations do not delay the project.
9. Provide easement and right -of -way descriptions to the Owner in conjunction
with submission of final plans. These will be provided in the form of field

Engineer data on existing per capita water use, ratios of average day to
maximum day demands, projected population, and the portion of the total
demand met by groundwater. Engineer will perform an economic analysis
3
to determine if terminal storage at the water treatment plant can be
economically justified by savings in line construction costs and/or capitalized
energy costs. Results of the analysis will be presented to the Owner as a
Technical Memorandum.
12. Perform a surge analysis of the proposed line to determine if a pipe design
with a liberal allowance for surge protection is required. Results of the
analysis will be presented to the Owner as a Technical Memorandum.
13. Prepare plans detailing the interconnection between the Owner's Barton Hill
Water Storage Tank and the City of Georgetown's Rabbit Hill Water Storage
Tank. The interconnection will be bid as part of the raw water line, but

C. CONSTRUCTION PHASE
1. Assist the Owner in the advertisement of the Project for bids.
2. Assist the Owner in the opening and tabulating of bids for construction of
the Project, and recommend to the Owner as to the proper action on all
proposals received.
3. Assist in the preparation of formal Contract Documents for the contracts.
4. Make periodic visits to the site (as distinguished from the continuous
services of a resident Project Representative described in Subparagraph 6
below) to observe the progress and quality of the executed work and to
determine in general if the work is proceeding in accordance with the
Contract Documents. In performing this service, the Engineer will not be
required to make exhaustive or continuous on -site inspections to check the
quality or quantity of the work or material; he will not be responsible for the
techniques and sequences of construction or the safety precautions incident
thereto, and he will not be responsible or liable in any degree for the
contractors' failure to perform the construction work in accordance with the
Contract Documents. During visits to the construction site, and on the basis
of the Engineer's on -site observations as an experienced and qualified
design professional, he will keep the Owner informed of the extent of the
progress of the work, and advise the Owner of material and substantial
defects and deficiencies in the work of contractors which are discovered by
the Engineer or otherwise brought to the Engineer's attention in the course
of construction, and may, on behalf of the Owner, exercise whatever rights
4
the Owner may have to disapprove work and materials as failing to conform
to the Contract Documents.
5. Consult and advise with the Owner; issue all instructions to the contractor
requested by the Owner; and prepare routine change orders as required.
6. If specifically authorized by the Owner in writing, furnish the services of
resident Project Representatives, and other field personnel for continuous
on- the -site observation of construction and for the performance of required
construction layout surveys. (This service is not a part of the Engineer's
basic services, and compensation therefore is not included in the Basic
Charge; if provided, compensation shall be determined under Section VI A.)
The authority and duties of such Resident Project Representatives are
limited to examining the material furnished and observing the work done,
and to reporting their findings to the Engineer. The Engineer will use the
usual degree of care and prudent judgment in the selection of competent
Project Representatives, and the Engineer will use diligence to see that the
Project Representatives are on the job to perform their required duties. It
is agreed, however, that the Engineer does not underwrite, guarantee, or
insure the work done by the contractors, and since it is the contractors'
responsibility to perform the work in accordance with the Contract
Documents, the Engineer is not responsible or liable for the contractors'
failure to do so, and, so long as Engineer has exercised the usual degree
of care and prudent judgment in selecting Project Representatives and has
used diligence to see that they are on the job to perform the work, failure
by any Project Representatives or other personnel engaged in on- the -site
observation to discover defects or deficiencies in the work of the contractors
shall never relieve the contractors of liability therefore or subject the
Engineer to any liability for any such defect or deficiencies. Engineer
(RPR) will not be responsible for the techniques and sequences of
construction or the safety precautions incident thereto, and he will not be
responsible or liable in any degree for the contractors' failure to perform the
construction work in accordance with the Contract Documents.
7. Review samples, catalog data, schedules, shop drawings, laboratory, shop
and mill tests of materials and equipment and other data which the
contractor is required to submit, only for conformance with the design
concept of the Project and compliance with the information given by the
Contract Documents; and assemble written guarantees which are required
by the Contract Documents.
8. Review monthly and final estimates for payments to contractors, and furnish
to the Owner any necessary certifications as to payments to contractors and
suppliers in a form acceptable to the City.
5
9. Conduct, in company with the Owner, a final inspection of the Project for
conformance with the design concept of the Project and compliance with the
Contract Documents, and approve in writing final payment to the
contractors.
10. Revise contract drawings, with the assistance of the resident Project
Representatives, or the Owners representative, to provide record drawings
of the completed Project. Furnish one set of reproducible drawings and one
set of prints of there revised drawings to the Owner.
