    The preliminary engineering checklist includes surveying the site and stream profiles, performing hydrologic analyses to determine drainage areas and channel capacities, investigating multiple culvert design alternatives in terms of headwater, freeboard and velocities, selecting a road cross-section and culvert length, estimating costs, conducting corrosion analyses, performing structural and geotechnical designs, identifying any utility conflicts, and considering environmental factors.
