SCOPE OF SERVICES
LA PORTE REDEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY – TIRZ 1
LAKES AT FAIRMONT GREENS DETENTION BASIN EVALUATION
This scope of services outlines the professional engineering services to be performed by Gauge Engineering, LLC
(Gauge) for the preparation of an evaluation of the existing detention basin serving the Lakes at Fairmont Greens
subdivision. The detention basin is linear and is located between the subdivision and the Bay Forest Golf Course.
The scope of work for this evaluation includes reviewing the as-built construction plans for the subdivision and
detention basins and studies for the area, field reconnaissance to inspect the detention basin and document
observations, and preparation of technical memorandum with improvement recommendations and a cost estimate.
The memorandum will identify and document the cause(s) of bank erosion and poor detention pond drainage.
Gauge will accomplish the following Tasks:
1. DATA COLLECTION AND COORDINATION:
a) Data Collection:
Research and collect available drainage studies, geotechnical reports, topographic data, record drawings,
aerial photos, and other relevant information for the study.
b) Field Visits:
Perform one field visit to evaluate the current condition of the detention basin. Documentation from the field
visit will be organized and included in the project report. The documentation will include a list of deficiencies
noted during the field visit.
c) Coordination and Meetings:
Gauge will plan on a maximum of four coordination meetings (virtual or in-person) with TIRZ 1 management.
2. DETENTION BASIN EVALUATION:
a) Basin Performance:
Based on the information collected in Task 1, Gauge will provide an opinion regarding if the detention basin
is functioning as designed.
b) Recommendations for Improvements:
Develop a detailed plan for improvements to the basin to correct deficiencies noted in Task 1 and to improve
the functionality of the basin to the original design standards.
c) Cost Estimates:
Develop cost estimates for recommended actions.
3. TECHNICAL MEMORANDUM:
Prepare a detailed technical memorandum that summarizes the results of the detention basin evaluation. The
memorandum will be signed and sealed by a professional engineer and can be used by the Redevelopment
Authority to plan a program of improvements.
