PART 1 - GENERAL

1.1 PROJECT INFORMATION

A. Project Identification: Council Bluff Primary Electric and Well Improvements

1. Project Location: This project is located in Iron County Missouri in the Mark Twain National Forest, Potosi-Fredericktown Ranger District recreation site Council Bluff – Wild Boar Ridge Campground.

2. Wild Boar Ridge Campground:

Lat: 37.724361° Long: -90.940618°

B. Owner: Government or Owners refers to the USDA Forest Service

1. Owner’s Representative: The Federal Contracting Officer (CO) and his/her designated representative(S), as named in writing. Contractive Officer (CO) refers to the person assigned by the USDA Forest Service to administer the contract. Soon after Contract award, the Contracting Officer will designate a Contracting Officer’s Representative

(COR).

C. The Work consists of coordinating with Ameren to extend their existing primary electric line from an overhead power line located near Missouri State Highway DD to the Wild Boar Campground.

This includes coming off an existing electric pole on the east side of the highway and installing buried line along the edge of the cleared highway right-of-way to the existing well within the Council Bluff Recreation Area. The corridor will parallel the east side of Missouri State Highway DD for approximately 9,600 feet and then use an “old road corridor” along the top of Wild Boar Ridge leading to the well for approximately 3,100 feet.

The Contractor shall clear the old road corridor along the top of Wild Boar Ridge leading to the well as necessary to allow construction vehicle access. The existing old road corridor contains downed trees and minor brush. Any tree removal shall occur during the Indiana bat and Northern long-eared bat’s hibernation season (between November 1 and March 31).

A pull box will be placed at approximately every 500-ft along the buried cable. The electric line along Missouri State Highway DD shall be installed utilizing directional drilling methods.

The electric line along the old road corridor can be installed utilizing either directional drilling or trenching.

The Contractor shall coordinate with the Public Utility (PU) provider, Ameren, to obtain all permits, pay all fees, and provide all labor, materials and equipment to extend the primary distribution system which includes transformers, meter bases, metering, and service connection requirements. This includes all trenching, backfilling, boring, landscaping and other requirements for replacing and extending the primary distribution system necessary to meet project
