Recovery Infrastructure funds to clean two existing drainage ponds, and repair and restore the

assistance:
1) Prepare design criteria to indicate requirements, considerations involved,
schematics and alternate solutions available to the County, which the Engineer
recommends.
2) Prepare detailed construction plans, specifications and contract documents for the
construction authorized by the County in accordance with all County, State and
Federal requirements.
3) Provide field surveys to collect information required for planning and design and
complete related office computations and drafting.
4) Furnish and submit, on behalf of the County of Robeson, 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, or for planning advances).
5) Provide the Construction Manager at Risk (CMAR) with consultation services as
needed.
To avoid duplication of efforts, unless other specified by Robeson County in writing, the selected
A/E firm will not conduct environmental review activities. It is assumed that NCORR will serve
as the lead agency for the purposes of the National Environmental Protection Act.
