These services are based on additional requirements of the project as discussed in recent meetings with the Corps of Engineers related to permitting requirements for the proposed dam improvements. An extensive information package was provided the Corps during our pre-application meeting and I believe this assisted in minimizing the permit requirements. The project scope will include the following additional or expanded work,elements: • Desktop Review:This is an environmental review to determine locations of potential threatened and endangered species or haitt, wetlands, and waster bodies in the project area. • Biological Fieldwork: This will involve fieldwork to determine and map information related to the Habitat Assessment and Wetlands Delineation. • Permit Submittal: A Section 404 Nationwide Permit 3 will be prepared and submitted to the Corps of Engineers for review and approval. Based on our meeting and communications with the Corps, this should satisfy their requirements and allow us to proceed with the project. These services will be provided by our primary civil consultant CP&Y and should completed within three weeks of authorization. A copy of their proposal is included as Attachment A. Fees The proposed additional fees for the services defined above is outlined below.

Based on the project area shown on the attached exhibit 'A',we have prepared the attached Scope of Work and fee.The work will be completed under a lump sum fee of$17,025.00. We are prepared to complete the work and submit the permit application to the USACE in three weeks following a Notice to Proceed. We appreciate this opportunity and look forward to working with you and the City of Fort Worth on this extended project. If you have any questions, please feel free to call us.

DESKTOP REVIEW After reviewing project information from the City of Fort Worth, a desktop review will be completed to determine locations of potential threatened and endangered (T&E) species or habitat, wetlands, and water bodies in the project area. The desktop review will be completed using U.S. Geological Survey (USGS)7.5' quadrangle maps, National Wetland Inventory(NWI)maps, Federal Emergency Management Agency(FEMA) maps, National Resources Conservation Service(NRCS) soil survey maps,the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department's (TPWD) National Diversity Database (NDD), the United States Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS)Critical Habitat Mapper, National Hydrography Dataset(NHD) maps, USFWS list of federally-listed species in Tarrant County, and Texas Natural Resources Information Systems (TNRIS) aerial photography. The Environmental Study Area that will be reviewed can be seen in Exhibit A. A review of technical databases,technical literature,and governmental publications and databases will also be conducted to identify T&E plant and animal species and sensitive natural communities that could potentially occur in the project area. The mapping data collected during the desktop review would be added into the Geographic Information System(GIS)database and would be used to generate an environmental constraints map. B. BIOLOGICAL FIELDWORK As described below,CP&Y will mobilize a team to conduct one field event for the T&E species habitat assessment and wetland delineation. Tasks included in field work also consist of preparatory and post- field work including compiling maps and pertinent project-specific documentation,making travel arrangements, uploading and downloading the Global Positioning System(GPS)data,and downloading photos. Habitat Assessment The habitat assessment includes determining minimal and ideal habitat within and adjacent to the project area,taking representative photographs of the project area,and reporting findings. Protocols for determining proper habitat will be performed for the federally listed species in Tarrant County. If appropriate habitat areas are located during the field event,they would be mapped with a Trimble GeoXT GPS receiver and would be downloaded into the GIS database for inclusion in the environmental constraints map. Page 1 of 5 Wetland Delineation CP&Y will perform this survey in accordance with the current federal delineation methodology and identify vegetated wetlands,waterbodies,and other regulated special aquatic sites encountered. Wetland and waterbody boundaries will be flagged,and locations will be mapped using a Trimble GeoXT GPS receiver that is accurate to within one meter. Additionally,CP&Y will take photographs of each resource and GPS ordinary high water marks(OHWM)of any waters of the U.S. crossed by the proposed pipeline. Delineations will be conducted in accordance with the 1987 Corps of Engineers Wetland Delineation Manual along with the 2010 Regional Supplement for the Great Plains Region. For each wetland,CP&Y will complete a wetland delineation data form and take representative photographs. Maps will be provided of all pertinent information collected during the desktop review and field visit. C. DELIVERABLE-SECTION 404 NATIONWIDE PERMIT 3 The USACE has jurisdictional authority over Section 404 of the Clean Water Act(CWA)and Section 10 of the Rivers and Harbors Act of 1899. Under Section 404 of the CWA,authorization must be obtained from the USACE for discharges of dredged or fill material into Waters of the United States(WUS), including jurisdictional wetlands. Section 10 of the Rivers and Harbors Act of 1899 allows the USACE to regulate work in,or affecting, navigable WUSs. Based on a meeting with Darvin Messer,the USACE Project Manager,the proposed project will require a Nationwide Permit(NWP)—Maintenance and a Pre-Construction Notification (PCN)would be required. The proposed,project will not affect any navigable waters;therefore,a Section 10 permit will not be required. NWP 3 Submittal The USACE Fort Worth District has a NWP Application Submittal Form for NWP 3. The application form will be filled out and submitted to the USACE. The application will incorporate information from field work,as well as a project description, list of property owners,conclusions,and photographs and figures depicting the gathered natural and cultural resource information. Response to City of Fort Worth and Agency Comments The Section 404 permit application will be revised to incorporate comments received from the City of Fort Worth, USACE, and other agencies. D. COST OF SERVICES CPY proposes to conduct the specified Scope of Services on a lump sum basis of$17,025.00. A summary of the cost by phase and our hourly rates are shown on Exhibit'A. E.
