The requested services provide for the City's acquisition of inventory data of underground storm drainage pipes and surface storm water infrastructure, such as manholes, inlets, pipes, and culverts. Pipes are to be televised using panoramic Closed Circuit Televising (CCTV) equipment and pipe condition is to be assessed by Pipeline Assessment Certification Program (PACP) certified raters. Additionally, the City will be provided with relevant pipe attribute data including, but not limited to, pipe size and material composition. The services also will include mapping of the underground pipe network and surface storm water infrastructure, as well as integrating the data into the City's asset management and mapping software systems.
