The contract period is one year from date of award, with an option to extend one additional year with an additional ceiling amount of $400,000.00. 2. PROJECT INFORMATION: The project consists of photogrammetric services, topographic mapping, horizontal and vertical control surveys, route location surveys, quantity surveys, land surveys, construction layout surveys, hydrographic surveys and geodetic surveys. These services will be used in the preparation of engineering design and construction layout for Louisville District activities within the Louisville District. The District is comprised of parts of Kentucky, Illinois, Indiana, Ohio, and Michigan. All mileage computed in regard to a particular work order will be measured from the Louisville District office in Louisville, Kentucky. Personnel and equipment necessary to obtain surveys of second and third order accuracy (NGS standards) are required. Photogrammetric facilities must be capable of producing topographic mapping that conforms to the National Map Accuracy Standards. Hydrographic surveys capabilities must meet requirements of U.S. Army Corps of Engineers EM 1110-2-1003 Hydrographic Surveying, dated 28 February, 1991. Equipment and personnel to be used in providing these services must be shown in the submittal. Hydrographic surveys shall use totally automated systems with the capability of positioning by use of a Differential Global Positioning System (DGPS). Contractor must also have backup positioning systems in the event that satellite transmission for DGPS positioning is interrupted, blocked or not available. All work is to be performed under the supervision of a Registered Land Surveyor. Firms must be able to submit survey and mapping data in Microstation format (on either 9 track magnetic tape or 8 millimeter cassettes, using either UNIX CPIO utility or VAX copy utility at 1600 or 6250 bpi, or in DOS ASCII on 5.25 inch or 3.5 inch floppy diskettes formatted with MS-DOS, or DOS QIC cassette backup), 3D Microstation design files (*.dgn), and typical field notes. Firms must have the capability of complying with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers manual EM-1110-1-1807, Computer-Aided Design and Drafting (CADD) Systems, 30 July, 1990.

SUBMITTAL REQUIREMENTS: a. See Note 24 for general submission requirements. Firms which are interested and meet the requirements described in this announcement are invited to submit one completed SF 255 (Revision 11-92), U.S. Government A/E and Related Services for Specific Projects to the office shown above.
