LOG NAME: 601-WREHAB-FREESEANDNICHOLS
SUBJECT:
Authorize Execution of an Engineering Agreement with Freese and Nichols, Inc. for the Lake Worth Dam
Rehabilitation and Improvements in the Amount of$124,000.00 and Adopt Appropriation Ordinance
(COUNCIL DISTRICT 7)
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council:
1. Adopt the attached appropriation ordinance increasing estimated receipts and appropriations in the
Water Capital Projects Fund in the amount of$124,00.00 from available funds; and
2. Authorize execution of an Engineering Agreement with Freese and Nichols, Inc. for the Lake Worth
Dam Rehabilitation and Improvements in the amount of$124,000.00 (City Project No. 100543).
DISCUSSION:
The Lake Worth Dam is owned by the City of Fort Worth (City) and regulated by the Texas Commission
on Environmental Quality's (TCEQ) dam classification system. City and TCEQ staff have conducted
regularly scheduled inspections of this dam. Recommendations from these inspections may include
changes to standard operating and monitoring procedures, updates or modifications to maintenance
practices, or recommended rehabilitation work to preserve the life of the dam structure.
As part of this Engineering Agreement, Freese & Nichols, Inc. will perform a field survey of the conditions
downstream of the spillway to check for any erosion from the recent rain events, perform an updated
stability analysis and prepare plans and specifications for minor structural rehabilitation and repairs of the
dam. Freese and Nichols, Inc. will also provide bidding assistance as well as construction phase services.
Freese and Nichols, Inc. proposes to perform this work for a fee not to exceed the amount of$124,000.00.
City staff considers this fee to be fair and reasonable for the scope of services proposed. The overall
project budget is estimated to be $424,000.00. Design is expected to start in January 2017 and be
completed by June 2017. Construction is anticipated to commence in October 2017 and be completed by
August 2018.
This project will have no impact on the Water Department's operating budget when completed.
M/WBE OFFICE: A waiver of the goal for MBE/SBE subcontracting requirements was requested by the
department and approved by the M/WBE Office, in accordance with the M/WBE or BDE Ordinance,
because the purchase of goods or services from source(s) where subcontracting or supplier opportunities
are negligible.
The project is located in COUNCIL DISTRICT 7, Mapsco 60G.
