the entirety of the project limits previously described. Survey limits will also include a new outfall to the Blanco River from River Road along W Upland Road to the river confluence. The survey will include horizontal and vertical control adequately documented on the construction plans and all points necessary to establish project construction in the field. Horizontal controls shall be North American Datum 1983 on the Texas State Grid Coordinate System South Central Zone Grid Coordinates, with values in U.S. Survey feet, carried to second-order accuracy to permit construction staking to third order accuracy. The vertical control for the survey shall be based on the U.S. Geological Survey North American Vertical Datum 1988 (NAVD 88)datum;benchmarks shall be established with a maximum separation of 1,000 feet and shall be accurate to 0.01 feet. All surveys must meet or exceed the standards set in the Professional Land Surveying Practices Act,the General Rules of Procedures and Practices promulgated by the Texas Board of Professional Land Surveying (TBPLS), and the Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) TxDOT Survey Manual, latest edition, and shall be accomplished in an organized and professional manner. Surveyor shall provide FNI one signed and sealed hard copy of the survey drawings and one digital AutoCAD copy with an ASCII file of points collected on CD-ROM or other acceptable delivery method. The design survey will: • Obtain or collect data to create cross-sections and digital terrain. • Locate depths of existing utilities such as clean outs, manholes, inlets. • Locate visible topographical features and existing improvements utilities and appurtenances, roadways, structures, trees, and other features within the limits of the survey. • Provide details of existing drainage features (e.g., culverts, manholes, ditches, etc.). • Locate environmental features flagged in the field by the environmental team. • Establish additional and verify existing control points (City of San Marcos and TxDOT). Horizontal and Vertical control ties must be made and tabulated, to other control points in the vicinity, which were established by other sources such as, the National Geodetic Survey (NGS), and the Federal Emergency Management Agency(FEMA), and any other local entities as directed by City. • Locate boreholes and SUE potholes (if performed) • Update existing control data and prepare survey control data sheets, as directed by FNI for inclusion into a construction plan set. A TIN-file including the full project information and one-foot contours will be provided. ii. Boundary Surveying (Tie into City Survey Monuments): A boundary survey will be provided within the limits of the project previously described and will include right-of-
