## Notice

The purpose of this survey is to provide the client with an accurate georeferenced route of two large culverted sections of watercourse. The survey will also produce a 3D laser scan point cloud that can be used to help with maintenance and operation, as well as combined cross sections with river bed information suitable for river modelling. Culvert 1 is located in Bristol and is approximately 900m in length, while Culvert 2 is located in Midsomer Norton and is approximately 1100 meters in length. Additional information: To express an interest and receive the associated tender documents, please email timothy.anderson@environment-agency.gov.uk by 13:00 on 22 October. Tender documents will be released the week commencing 22 October. Tenderers will be required to be members of The Survey Association (TSA) or to be ""Regulated by RICS"" (with at least one chartered land surveyor). As part of the tender response, tenderers will also be required to provide an example of a channel survey containing at least 100 cross-sections/terrestrial laser scan which has been carried out in accordance with the Environment Agency Standard Contract and Specification for Surveying Services within the last 18 months and includes deliverables of written survey report, survey control, plan, long-section, cross-sections and digital channel survey data in ISIS and EACSD format. In the absence of such examples, tenderers must provide evidence of experience in comparable large scale survey projects.
