4. Request preliminary utility relocation plans 5. Prepare utility relocation plans and cost estimates 6. Obtain Caltrans and City concurrence in utility plans and estimate and accomodations 7. Finalize utility clearance plans Task 4. Obtain Soils and Foundation..Analyses A major portion of this task can be performed while final geometrics design development is underway. There are two principal tasks that will insure the success of this duty. First, basic Caltrans requirements and concerns will be ascertained and addressed. These concerns will include scope of field surveys, types of tests and method of reporting. The work will include detail necessary for structure foundation. Other tests will include fill and slope stability. A second major concern is in the matter of embankment settlement. The soil surveys will be sufficient in scope to identify any underlying problems. Recommended solutions will be included in the materials report. 1. Obtain Caltrans encroachment permit 2. Discuss material requirements with Caltrans 3. Perform field surveys 4. Prepare materials reports, submit for review and comment 5. Prepare structural section, submit for review and approval Task 5. .prepare Plans, Specifications and Estimate (P.S.&E.) The work would be performed in accordance with the requirements of the City of Pleasanton and in conformance with the Caltrans policies. This task would commence with a review of the Environmental Document and the Project Report to ascertain if there are any special project needs. Certain work can be initiated immediately upon receipt of the notice to proceed. These tasks are (1) determining the need for various permits (2) identifying several concerned Caltrans Branches (e.g., Hydraulics, Electrical, Traffic, and Landscaping) and (3) preparing reports and design recommendations for the several concerned Caltrans Branches. Based on the preceding preliminary tasks, detailed design can proceed once final geometrics are approved. Advance plans in sufficient detail for review and comment will be furnished each concerned Caltrans Branch as design development progresses. Bridge design starts once detailed geometric approval is obtained. Bridge design is a two step process. First, the bridge general plan and the structure type must be approved. Second, detailed development of structure plans is accomplished. EaCh of the above steps requires Owner's approval action. Close liaison is required to dovetail bridge design into overall project P.S,&E. The above tasks produce the several design elements that enable preparation of the preliminary P.S.&E., which will be submitted to Caltrans for review and comment. Following receipt of all Caltrans comments, the final P.S.&E., incorporating comments, is prepared ad submitted. -2-
