CONTRACT FOR ENGINEERING SERVICES
Owner: City of Lawrence, Kansas
Engineer: Black & Veatch Corporation
Project: Northwest Area Collection System Master Plan Update
SCOPE OF SERVICES
Existing system population projections will be provided by the Owner based upon 2000 census block information plus platted lots since then and planned development based upon discussions with developers interested in building within the northwest area. Future population projections will be determined by Owner based upon updated projections provided by others for projected years 2010 and 2025.
The project will consist of two phases, which are:
· Phase I – Existing System Evaluation
· Phase II – Northwest Area Plan Update
Phasing of the update is required to immediately evaluate the existing system and provide the Owner with an evaluation of the capacity of the existing system. Flow meters have recently been installed within the area in question and the data collected from these meters will be utilized to forecast the actual infiltration and inflow (I/I) associated with the design event, which is a 10-year storm. This data, as well as average daily design flows based upon the increased population projections and average sewerage projections developed in the Master Plan will be utilized to evaluate the existing system capacity. If excess capacity exists, Engineer will provide Owner with an estimate of the sub-basin population projection which the collection system can support. The second phase of this update will include an evaluation of this increased growth, plus new population projections for the Baldwin Creek basin provided by others.
Wastewater collection system planning will include the tasks described in the Basic Scope of Services. Engineer will subcontract with Wade & Associates to provide the computer modeling required for Phase 300 of the Work.
DESCRIPTION OF BASIC SCOPE OF SERVICES
PHASE 000 – PROJECT ADMINISTRATION AND CONTROL
Task 001. Project Management. The Project Manager will monitor progress and schedule on the project at all times, and will facilitate coordination of all study components. Reports on percentage of the work, budget status, and adherence to schedule will be provided to the Owner on a monthly basis. The Project Manager will oversee monthly invoicing and progress reporting throughout the duration of the project.
Task 002. Quality Control. Engineer’s Quality Control Director will provide an independent review of the work. This quality control review will include checks for completeness and correctness of evaluations, design, feasibility of implementation of recommendations, and adherence to contract requirements. Engineer’s Project Manager and Quality Control Director will ensure that all necessary revisions to the master plans and basis of design reports are completed and incorporated on the final documents.
Task 101. Define and Evaluate Study Area. The Study Area for this update will generally be the northwest area, which is generally north of 6th street and south of I-70, which is tributary to the Kentucky Pumping Station. Watershed boundary sub-basins established in the previous Master Plan will be used for this project.
Task 102. Existing and Future Population and Land Use. The Owner will provide population and land use data for the existing collection system, as well as projected years 2010 and 2025 in GIS to Engineer in shapefile format. The population and land use data will be provided to Engineer for existing and future years by sewer sub-basin area. The population and land use information will be presented to Engineer by Owner in summary tables for each sub-basin by design year for existing year and future years 2010 and 2025. Engineer will participate in up to three (3) meetings with Owner’s consultant responsible for developing future population and land use projections. Engineer will also review draft and final report and provide comments based upon Engineer’s understanding of the scope of the study. A total of one eighty (80) hours has been allotted for coordination of the forecasts for Owner’s use as desired.
Engineer will review Owner population and land use data and provide coordination assistance to ensure the data is acceptable for computer modeling. Engineer is not responsible for the development of the population forecasts or land use data.
Task 201. Review Background Data. Existing reports and documents relating to the collection system will be reviewed. This review will include maps and previous flow monitoring and system analyses.
Task 202. Analyze System For Current Conditions. The existing KR-2 system will be analyzed for one selected design condition using the updated model. The capacity for each trunk line and pumping station in the model will be presented to City staff and the system response to the design flow will be evaluated.
The existing system analysis will include:
· Running the existing HYDRAWORKS model with the population forecasts included within the 2003 Master Plan for the base year 2000 analysis to determine remaining capacity of the 15” and 24” sewers on Peterson Road.
· Running the existing HYDRAWORKS model with the modified existing flow projections for the area to evaluate the collection system capacity. If excess capacity exists, provide Owner with a forecast for additional population basis which the collection system could support to determine how much additional, if any, development can be approved.
Task 203. Phase I Summary. Engineer will provide Owner with a memorandum summarizing the population projections, basis for calculating the design condition, and system response to the design events previously described.
Task 301. Review Rainfall and Flow Analysis. Wade & Associates currently has a project with the Owner which involves rainfall and flow monitoring in the northwest area. Once this project is completed, a review of the rainfall and flow analysis will be performed for concurrence of the results. A copy of the rainfall and flow data and the report will need to be supplied to the Engineer for review.
Task 302. Review Model Calibration. A review of the hydraulic model developed by Wade & Associates for the northwest area will be completed. This review will be completed to assure accuracy in the model and the results of the modeling runs. A copy of the hydraulic model that was calibrated to the rainfall and flow analysis will need to be supplied to the Engineer for review.
Task 303. Prepare Modified Existing Flow Projections. Using the new current year population forecasts for the northwest area based upon Utilities Department forecasts for approved plats, building permits, and other approved or planned development flow projections will be developed for the northwest area.
Task 304. Prepare Future Flow Projections. Based on the future land use and the population projections by subbasin, and the evaluation of flow and rainfall data, future flow projections for years 2010 and 2025 will be developed for the area in question.
Task 305. Update Hydraulic Model and Calibrate. Update the hydraulic model with additional sewers to include sewers tributary to the Kentucky Street Pump Station and the new flow projections. Verify calibration of the model by comparing the model output to the flow projections.
Task 306. Update Master Plan Improvements to Serve Future Growth in the Northwest Area. The improvements identified in the Master Plan for the northwest area, including downstream facilities, will be evaluated based upon size and timing to determine if modifications to the accepted Capital Improvement Program (CIP) are required. The modeling effort for this phase of work will be completed by Wade & Associates utilizing their PIPEDREAMS software package and model. Estimated project costs provided in the Master Plan will be updated based upon inflation and sizing impacts. A revised CIP will be developed for Owner’s use.
Engineer will evaluate the following scenarios:
1. Conveyance of all flows from the northwest area as outlined in the 2003 Wastewater Master Plan. Facility sizes, timing of improvement, and/or extent of projects may require modification to accommodate the additional flows.
2. Conveyance of Baldwin Creek flows in excess of the 24” force main capacity from the Kentucky Pumping Station to the existing wastewater treatment plant to the Four Seasons Pumping Station and on to the Wakarusa Water Reclamation Facility.
Task 307. Prepare Draft Letter Report. Prepare draft Northwest Area Master Plan Letter Report Update that summarizes the task completed in previous phases and presents the findings and recommendations for the update. The draft report will finalize all modeling concepts and the CIP. Ten (10) copies of the draft letter report will be provided to the Owner for review.
Engineer will provide Owner with the following definitions utilized in the 2003 Master Plan and Update:
· Pipeline capacity and the basis for recommending improvements.
· Pumping station capacity and the basis for recommending improvements.
PHASE 400 – SUPPLEMENTAL SERVICES
Any work requested by Owner that is not included in one of the items listed in any other phase herein will be classified as Supplemental Services.
