Summary & Background: The Department of Public Works requests approval to renew the contract with A&K Services, LLC, to provide soft dig services.

 

Scope of Work: This contract will provide soft dig services from A&K Services, LLC in order to assist the Department of Public Works to locate gas, electric, and telecommunication utility lines that may be near water and sanitary sewer infrastructure.

 

Community Impact: Soft dig services enable Fulton County water system personnel to identify gas, electric, fiber optic, and telephone utilities and minimize damage to water services without digging.  Digging can impact commerce and citizen health if utility lines are damaged.

 

Department Recommendation: The Department of Public Works recommends the BOC grant approval to renew the existing contract.

 

Project Implications: Soft dig services provide a safe means of excavation that uncovers and locates other utilities during water system and sanitary sewer emergencies.  The use of soft dig services increases productivity and provides additional protection to Fulton County personnel by ensuring they avoid gas and electric lines.

 

Community Issues/Concerns: No issues or concerns have been raised to staff of the Department of Public Works

 

Department Issues/Concerns: Staff of the Department of Public Works have not raised any issues or concerns with regard to the contract.
