Section 25-00001-08-BT

Recommended Action:
The Highway Department recommends approval of the Engineering Services
Agreement with Hutchison Engineering, Inc.

Background:
In October 2025, McLean County received notification that the Historic Route 66 Bike
Trail project was selected for 2024 Local Project Funding. This funding will provide
Phase I and II engineering services for the design of a new bike path from north of
Towanda to the Livingston County line.
The Local Road Funding program will cover 100% of the project. The Phase I portion of
the agreement will cover the necessary environmental submittals and approvals. The
Phase II services will provide design plans for the remaining sections between Towanda
& Lexington, Lexington & Chenoa and Chenoa to the Livingston County line.
It is anticipated that this project will take 2-3 years to complete.

In the event of delays due to unforeseeable causes beyond the control of and without fault or negligence of the ENGINEER no
claim for damages shall be made by either party. Termination of the AGREEMENT or adjustment of the fee for the remaining
services may be requested by either party if the overall delay from the unforeseen causes prevents completion of the work within
six months after the specified completion date. Examples of unforeseen causes included but are not limited to: acts of God or a

the LPA for an extension of time. If approved, the PROJECT SCHEDULE shall be revised accordingly.

By execution of this AGREEMENT the LPA and ENGINEER certify compliance with the Drug Free Workplace (30 ILCS 580). The
Drug Free Workplace Act requires that no grantee or contractor shall receive a grant or be considered for the purpose of being
awarded a contract for the procurement of any property or service from the DEPARTMENT unless that grantee or contractor will

BLR 05530 (Rev. 10/24/25)

Page 10 of 78

provide a drug free workplace. False certification or violation of the certification may result in sanctions including, but not limited
to suspension of contract on grant payments, termination of a contract or grant and debarment of the contracting or grant
opportunities with the DEPARTMENT for at least one (1) year but not more than (5) years.
For the purpose of this certification, "grantee" or "Contractor" means a corporation, partnership or an entity with twenty-five (25)
or more employees at the time of issuing the grant or a department, division or other unit thereof, directly responsible for the
specific performance under contract or grant of $5,000 or more from the DEPARTMENT, as defined the Act.
The contractor/grantee certifies and agrees that it will provide a drug free workplace by:
(a) Publishing a statement:
(1) Notifying employees that the unlawful manufacture, distribution, dispensing, possession or use of a
controlled substance, including cannabis, is prohibited in the grantee's or contractor's workplace.
(2) Specifying actions that will be taken against employees for violations of such prohibition.
(3) Notifying the employee that, as a condition of employment on such contract or grant, the employee will:
(a) abide by the terms of the statement; and
(b) notify the employer of any criminal drug statute conviction for a violation occurring in the workplace
no later than (5) days after such conviction.
(b) Establishing a drug free awareness program to inform employees about:
(1) The dangers of drug abuse in the workplace;
(2) The grantee's or contractor's policy to maintain a drug free workplace;
(3) Any available drug counseling, rehabilitation and employee assistance program; and
(4) The penalties that may be imposed upon an employee for drug violations.
(c) Providing a copy of the statement required by subparagraph (a) to each employee engaged in the performance of the
contract or grant and to post the statement in a prominent place in the workplace.
(d) Notifying the contracting, or granting agency within ten (10) days after receiving notice under part (b) of paragraph
(3) of subsection (a) above from an employee or otherwise, receiving actual notice of such conviction.
(e) Imposing a sanction on, or requiring the satisfactory participation in a drug abuse assistance or rehabilitation
program.
(f) Assisting employees in selecting a course of action in the event drug counseling, treatment and rehabilitation is
required and indicating that a trained referral team is in place.
Making a good faith effort to continue to maintain a drug free workplace through implementation of the Drug Free Workplace Act,
the ENGINEER and LPA agree to meet the PROJECT SCHEDULE outlined in EXHIBIT B. Time is of the essence on this project
and the ENGINEER's ability to meet the PROJECT SCHEDULE will be a factor in the LPA selecting the ENGINEER for future
projects. The ENGINEER will submit progress reports with each invoice showing work that was completed during the last
reporting period and work they expect to accomplish during the following period.
10.

Due to the physical location of the project, certain work classifications may be subject to the Prevailing Wage Act (820 ILCS
130/0.01 et seq.).

11.

For Preliminary Engineering Contracts:
(a) That tracing, plans, specifications, estimates, maps and other documents prepared by the ENGINEER in accordance
with this AGREEMENT shall be delivered to and become the property of the LPA and that basic survey notes,
sketches, charts, CADD files, related electronic files, and other data prepared or obtained in accordance with this
AGREEMENT shall be made available, upon request to the LPA or to the DEPARTMENT, without restriction or
limitation as to their use. Any re-use of these documents without the ENGINEER involvement shall be at the LPA's
sole risk and will not impose liability upon the ENGINEER.
(b) That all reports, plans, estimates and special provisions furnished by the ENGINEER shall conform to the current
Standard Specifications for Road and Bridge Construction, Bureau of Local Roads and Streets Manual or any other
applicable requirements of the DEPARTMENT, it being understood that all such furnished documents shall be
approved by the LPA and the DEPARTMENT before final acceptance. During the performance of the engineering
services herein provided for, the ENGINEER shall be responsible for any loss or damage to the documents herein
enumerated while they are in the ENGINEER's possession and any such loss or damage shall be restored at the
ENGINEER's expense.

DRAINAGE DESIGN
6.1

Data Collection - Any available data on the site including plans, LiDAR topographic
data, previous studies, FEMA data, etc. will be compiled to determine the level of
survey that will be necessary. Hanson will prepare a survey request and coordinate
with the survey team and review the data for completeness. The
collected data will be formatted for use in hydrologic and hydraulic models.

6.2

Hydrology - USGS Streamstats will be utilized to estimate peak discharges in the
channels at each of the crossing locations. A range of frequencies will be
established for use in the hydraulic models.

6.3

Existing Conditions Hydraulic Modeling - Hanson will develop existing conditions
hydraulic model through each bridge/culvert crossing. The US Army Corps of
Engineers’ HEC-RAS program will be utilized to generate the models based on
channel survey and LiDAR data, and each model will extend to a distance of
approximately 1000-ft upstream and downstream of the study structures. Surveys
of the bridge combined with any available record drawings will be used to define

Page 20 of 78

EXHIBIT A - SCOPE OF SERVICES

the existing highway and railroad structures in close proximity to the bike path
corridor. The existing model will serve to define water surface elevations and other
key hydraulic design information (velocities shear stresses, etc) near the proposed
corridor. This will establish the baseline conditions for comparison with the
proposed structure designs.

7.0

6.4

Proposed Conditions Hydraulic Modeling - Hanson will also develop proposed
conditions models, utilizing the existing models as a base, with the proposed
bridge/culvert modifications. These models will be compared back to existing
conditions to assess potential impacts to the water surface profiles of each stream.
Results from these assessments will be compared to IDOT hydraulic design
criteria, railroad hydraulic design criteria, and other local and state permit criteria
to inform the design of the replacement structures. A HEC-18 bridge scour analysis
will be performed for the selected alternatives only at the bridge crossings. Riprap
aprons and gradations will be assessed and recommended for the selected
structures at the culvert crossings. This scope does not include permitting effort or
permit fees.

6.5

Reporting - Hanson will develop an full IDOT hydraulic report for each of the
proposed crossings including narrative and all tables, results summaries, figures,
exhibits, and forms. The reports will be submitted digitally to the county upon
completion.
