0(h." <br /> STUDY SCHEDULE <br /> The Request For Proposals specified the milestones and time parameters, for • <br /> the conduct or the study. All work must be completed by August 31, 1986, <br /> and a maximum of ten months will be provided, to produce the draft plan. <br /> One month shol uld be allowed for local and State review, with an additional <br /> unspecified period allowed for the Consultant to make the necessary modi- <br /> fications, produce the final report, and present the report to the Orange <br /> County Board! of Commissioners. If the Consultant is allowed one month to <br /> perform these final tasks, a total study period of 12 months has been spe- <br /> cified. - <br /> Given the due date for response to your Request For Proposals, the Consul- <br /> tant selection process, and the NCDOT requirement for a pre-award audit' <br /> prior to contract execution, CGA projects that December 1, 1985 is the ear- <br /> liest realistic starting date. This schedule will not allow for a 12-month <br /> study process,. CGA has developed and proposes a schedule, outlined in <br /> Figure 1, that 'assumes a December start date and will conclude by August <br /> 31, 1986. This will result in a nine-month study. <br /> Our study schedule adheres to the sequence of tasks as outlined in our <br /> proposal and tie NCDOT TDP guidebook and will provide for the completion of <br /> appropriate tasks within a timeframe to provide for a submittal of a grant <br /> application under NCDOT's Section 16(b)(2) program, if appropriate. <br /> Specific milestones to be met by the Consultant include: <br /> - <br /> December 16, 1985: Introductory Meeting <br /> January 14, 1986: (Optional Meeting) <br /> February 11, 1986: Presentation of Inventory and Needs Analysis <br /> March lit 1986: Presentation of Alternatives <br /> April 8, 1986: Presentation of Draft TOP <br /> August 19, 1986: Presentation of TOP to Orange County Board of <br /> County Commissioners <br /> • <br /> 2-12 <br /> *z: <br />
