Summary
This is a Scope of Work document from Forsyth County, Georgia, for the SPLOST IX Transportation Bundle 5 project, establishing minimum requirements for property, topographic, and utility survey services to support planning and design of transportation infrastructure improvements. The Design Builder is responsible for conducting comprehensive surveys including control point establishment tied to the Georgia State Plane Coordinate System (West Zone) and NAVD 88, with a minimum of two benchmarks established outside survey limits. Survey work encompasses property boundary and easement research, topographic data at one-foot contour increments, utility location and documentation (sanitary sewer, water, storm drainage, and overhead utilities), pavement features, existing structures, and tree inventories with specific diameter thresholds based on developed versus undeveloped areas. The project also requires Subsurface Utility Engineering (SUE) Quality Level B investigation for all underground utilities, with provisions for Quality Level A surveys at conflict locations identified during design progression.
Deliverables must be provided in Bentley OpenRoads Designer format with CAD files (dgn, dtm, UTLE, TOPO, and SURV), utility reports, and complete documentation of survey information organized according to GDOT specifications and standards. The Design Builder is responsible for the accuracy and completeness of all survey data used for design and construction, must submit a surveying schedule for approval before commencing work, and shall provide unit rates for SUE Quality Level A services including test holes in both paved and unpaved areas, traffic control services, and associated permitting. The project is funded by SPLOST IX, with the Owner (Forsyth County) providing available GIS data, as-builts, utility information, easement documentation, and an introduction letter on County letterhead to facilitate survey work.

Design Builder is responsible to identify and survey all required items needed to successfully complete the project.
OWNER RESPONSIBILITES:
Owner will provide:
1. All information in Forsyth County's possession related to the project including GIS information, as-built, utilities , easements, properties, titles report, and survey information.
2. Introduction letter on County letterhead.
LIMITS:
Minimum survey limits will be from roadway centerline to 10 feet past existing right-of-way on the side being proposed to be constructed. Underground storm and sewer limits will include the next structure beyond the above limits.
DESIGN BUILDER RESPONSIBILITIES:
Design Builder shall:
Tasks 1: –Topographic and Boundary Survey
1. Establish of Control Points and Collection of Data tied to current Georgia State Plane Coordinate System (West Zone) and NAVD 88
2. Control Point and Benchmark Report
a. Set a minimum of 2 benchmarks outside of the survey limits and note on survey.
Label with description, Northing, Easting and Elevation to the nearest 0.01’
b. Horizontal control data shall be relevant to the Georgia State Plane Coordinate System, North American Datum of 1983 (FIPS 1002)
3. Research parcels within and adjacent to project limits of the project
4. Establish property boundaries, existing right-of-way, and easements for properties within and adjacent to project limits. Information to include:
a. Property corners,
b. Owner information, including deed/plat references, MINIMUM PROPERTY, TOPOGRAPHIC, AND UTILITY SURVEY SCOPE OF WORK Page 2 of 3
5. Topographic Survey shall be prepared in accordance to GDOT Minimum Technical Standards of Georgia Survey Law.
6. Utilities and Appurtenances
