Project Description

The Birmingham Airport Authority (BAA) is soliciting Statements of Qualifications (SOQ)

and Project Proposals from qualified engineering firms (firms) to perform civil

engineering services for the preliminary investigation, design, and bidding phases for the

following project at the Birmingham-Shuttlesworth International Airport (BHM):

Village Creek Relocation Design

See Appendix A for approximate project limits. The selected firm shall be obligated to

perform the necessary work through completion of construction and the closeout

process for the project. This project is anticipated to receive an Airport Improvement

Program (AIP) grant from the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA). The selected firm

will need to be familiar with the process and required documentation associated with

the AIP grant process. This includes, but is not limited to, FAA grant assurances, FAA

airport design and construction standards, 14 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) Part 77

airspace requirements, as well as familiarization with other FAA Orders, Advisory

Circulars (AC), and the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) process.

Project Background

The existing Runway 6/24 centerline to Taxiway ‘A’ centerline separation is 350 feet, which does not meet FAA design

standards for BHM’s current operational level. The FAA approved the 2018 Airport Layout Plan (ALP), which depicts a

standard condition wherein Taxiway ‘A’, southwest of Taxiway ‘B’, is realigned to meet FAA design criteria. Furthermore, the

FAA funded a safety and capacity study for BHM that outlined a strategy to not only address Taxiway A’s non-standard

runway-to-taxiway separation distance, but also an installation approach for additional airfield capacity improvement

projects congruent with the 2018 ALP.

The primary enabling project for the relocation of Taxiway ‘A’ is a channel realignment of Village Creek, which runs parallel

to Taxiway ‘A’.

An Environmental Assessment (EA) of the potential impacts to Village Creek is underway with a target completion date of

March 2026.

Environmental: Per the JAN ADO, this project (design only) qualifies for a Simple Written Record Categorical Exclusion

under FAA Order 1050.F sec5-6.4e. The ultimate design must conform to the findings of the EA (ongoing).

The proposed project would include civil engineering services for the preliminary, design, and bidding phases for the

relocation of Village Creek; this includes but is not limited to the associated enabling elements.

Upon completion of design, it is the airport’s intent to retain the awarded candidate to perform construction phase

services. Construction phase services will be tasked separately from design and will be negotiated per FAA requirements
