ATTACHMENT "A"
Scope of Work
Channel Inventory and Mapping Project
City Project No.
The scope set forth herein defines the work to be performed by the ENGINEER in
completing the project. Both the CITY and ENGINEER have attempted to clearly define the
work to be performed and address the needs of the Project. Under this scope, "ENGINEER"
is expanded to include any sub-consultant, including surveyor, employed or contracted by
the ENGINEER.
OBJECTIVE
ENGINEER will provide GIS services to support the needs of the CITY's stormwater
division. Specific GIS services will include an inventory of the CITY's open channel network,
associated physical assets, flow network features, and incorporation of surveyed cross
sections.
WORK TO BE PERFORMED
1. Project Management
a. Project Management — ENGINEER will provide general project management
services to the CITY including project status reports, invoicing, right of entry
coordination, geodatabase replication, web map status and quality control
tracking.
b. Project Status Meetings — ENGINEER will coordinate and conduct regular
project status meetings with the CITY and project team. It is anticipated that
monthly in-person status meetings will be held. Additionally, conference calls
and web-conference meetings will be conducted on an as needed basis to
supplement the regular status meetings.
c. Modify Geodatabase Schema— ENGINEER will work with the CITY to modify
the existing geodatabase schema based on the needs identified by the
various stormwater data users. It is also anticipated that modifications to the
geodatabase schema may be required over the course of the project.
d. Strategic Planning — ENGINEER will coordinate with the CITY with regards to
coordinating the Channel Inventory and Mapping Project with overall Storm
Water Division strategic planning efforts.
2. Data Preparation
a. Separate Channel Features — The existing assets within the current Channel
Feature GIS layer will be separated into Channel Feature and Channel
Structure feature classes. Appropriate field mapping will be used for the
assets being moved to the new Channel Structure layer. Once the new
structure layer has been created, unique ID values will be assigned and the
database trigger for assigning these IDs will be modified to support this
feature class.
b. Develop Reference Datasets — ENGINEER will obtain the most recent LiDAR
and terrain dataset from the CITY. This LiDAR-based terrain model will be
used to assist with channel alignment, pull elevation values for channel
features and structures, and determine approximate bank slopes.
City of Fort Worth,Texas
Attachment A
PMO Release Date:07/23/2012
Page 1 of 4
ENGINEER will also use the most recent aerial imagery available from the
CITY. The imagery will be processed into a single mosaic dataset for.
c. Channel Alignment — The existing channels within the CITY limits will be
aligned to match the current aerial imagery and terrain datasets, and the flow
direction will be verified. As the channels are being adjusted, areas with
heavy canopy that prevent the GIS Analyst from viewing the assets within the
channel will be flagged. Channels falling within adjacent cities or within the
CITY's ETJ will also be adjusted accordingly to ensure smooth alignment
across these jurisdictional boundaries. Additionally, terrain analysis will be
used to develop a derivative dataset identifying the flow paths to assist with
the alignment process.
d. Crossing Identification — Existing crossings and crossings identified during
the channel alignment process will be added to the Crossing feature class.
e. Channel Structures — Structures within the channels that are visible from the
aerial imagery will be digitized. If the type of structure can be determined
from the imagery the appropriate attribute value will be assigned, otherwise
the type of feature will be determined during the field data collection process.
The structure point will be placed on the channel and located at the mid-point
of the structure feature. This will allow the CITY to easily roll-up structure
counts along streams through spatial selection.
f. Access Point Identification — During the aerial imagery review process for the
channels and structures, the GIS Analysts will locate potential channel
access points that can be used later during the field data collection effort. In
addition to traditional imagery, oblique imagery and street views will be used.
These locations will be placed in the Access Point feature class. ENGINEER
understands that not all of these potential access points will be verified over
the course of the project and will remove unverified locations prior to final
delivery.
3. Field Data Collection
a. Field Data Collection — For identified channel structures as well as channels
obscured by heavy canopy or areas affected by recent construction, field data
collection methods will be used to locate and attribute the assets. To support
the field data collection effort, the GIS data layers will be published as REST
services using ArcGIS Server. This will allow the field personnel to add new
assets, efficiently collect attribute information, and document the assets with
field photos. The data collection team will either use the Esri Collector or the
Halff GIS iOS app from mobile devices. The ENGINEER anticipates using a
variety of field data collection methods. Each area will be evaluated for the
most efficient data collection approach. The proposed data collection
methods include:
i. Walking — The ENGINEER anticipates that walking the channels will
be the most common method for data collection. Walking or wading
through the channels requires the least amount of coordination and
works with most access points.
ii. Bicycles — For stream reaches associated with the CITY's trail
system, bicycles can be used.
iii. Kayaks — For stream reaches with navigable waters, kayaks can be
used.
iv. Golf Carts — There are multiple stream miles within the boundaries of
several golf courses. The ENGINEER will coordinate with the golf
City of Fort Worth,Texas
Attachment A
PMO Release Date:07/23/2012
Page 2 of 4
courses for access and then use golf carts to minimize the amount of
time field personnel are on property.
v. Drones — ENGINEER will conduct a pilot project with the CITY to
determine the data collection capabilities of Small Unmanned Aircraft
Systems (SUAS), aka drones. Operational considerations associated
with the FAA SUAS rules that went into effect on August 29, 2016 will
be taken into account. At a minimum data collection with drones will
take into account visual line-of-sight (VLOS), flying over people not
involved with the project, and restricted airspace associated with
airports. The ENGINEER will utilize drones to obtain channel and
structure information.
vi. Survey — Although the ENGINEER does not anticipate using
traditional or survey grade GPS for data collection, there may be
specific features that the CITY requires survey accuracy. For these
assets, ENGINEER has survey crews available locally for use during
data collection.
b. Asset Condition Photos — The field data collection process will include the
collection of asset photos. These photos will be collected with mobile devices
supporting location information. The photos will be georeferenced and
attributed with collection dates and descriptions and then loaded to the Asset
Condition Photos feature class. Additionally, the CITY has condition photos
that have been collected through previous open channel studies. These
photos will also be added to the Asset Condition Photos GIS layer.
4. Feature and Network Mapping
a. Import Cross Sections — The CITY has collected a wealth of surveyed cross
sections associated with various open channel studies. The survey
coordinates will be brought in from the final reports associated with these
studies to the CITY's geodatabase as polylineZ features. The vertices of
these lines will represent the actual survey shots.
b. Import Bar Ditches — Bar ditches collected during the pavement assessment
project being conducted by the CITY will be imported to the Channel feature
class and connected to the overall geometric network.
c. Assign Elevations — The channel structure and feature layers each contain a
channel elevation attribute. This value will be assigned using the LiDAR data
by extracting the terrain value at the location of each point, unless a survey
elevation value is available.
d. Channel Attribution — Channel attributes that can be determined from aerial
imagery will be collected during the alignment process. Assets that are
obscured or prevent attribute collection will be flagged for field data collection.
e. Reconcile with Stormwater Pipe Network — As the channel alignments are
adjusted and channel features and structures are added to the geodatabase,
the existing geometric network will be maintained. This will require that some
of the existing features associated with the closed pipe network, i.e. virtual
links or culverts and associated nodes, be adjusted or created as the channel
inventory progresses.
5. Quality Control
a. CITY Feedback — The CITY will have the ability to provide the project team
with comments. Additionally the ENGINEER will identify issue areas
requiring CITY coordination. The ENGINEER will address CITY comments
and recommended issue resolution actions.
City of Fort Worth,Texas

b. Quality Control — As each mapshed is completed, the layers associated with
the Channel Inventory project will go through a quality control process which
will include valid value checks, topology checks, and validation against the
geometric network.

Mayor and Council Communication
COUNCIL ACTION: Approved on 12/6/2016
DATE: Tuesday, December 6, 2016 REFERENCE NO.: **C-28006
LOG NAME: 20SWM CHANNEL INVENTORY
SUBJECT:
Authorize Execution of a Professional Services Agreement with Halff Associates, Inc., in the Amount of
$800,000.00 with a Second Year Option for a Total Contract Amount Not to Exceed $1,300,000.00 to
Provide Geographic Information Systems Services for the Transportation and Public Works Department
Stormwater Management Division to Inventory and Assess the Condition of the City's Stormwater
Channels (ALL COUNCIL DISTRICTS)
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council authorize the execution of a Professional Services Agreement
with Halff Associates, Inc., in the amount of$800,000.000 to provide Geographic Information System data
collection services including a second year renewal option for a total contract amount not to exceed
$1,300,000.00.
DISCUSSION:
The purpose of this Mayor and Council (M&C) communication is to recommend a Channel Inventory
initiative as the next key step in developing the City's drainage infrastructure asset management system.
When the Transportation and Public Works Department Stormwater Management program was
established, one of the most urgent needs identified was to assemble fundamental data on the drainage
system, such as location, size and condition. The first priority was to assemble data on the pipe system,
which has now been largely completed. Detailed information on over 360 miles of channel that are a part
of the drainage system is still not readily accessible to maintenance personnel, engineers working on
drainage improvement projects or staff and customers involved in private development projects. The
initiative recommended by this M&C and already approved by City Council as a part of Stormwater's 5-
Year CIP, will substantively address this critical need.
The Stormwater Capital Plan provides a total of$1,300,000.00 funding for this project in 2017 and 2018
with $800,000.00 appropriated in Fiscal Year 2017 and $500,000.00 planned for appropriation in Fiscal
Year 2018.
In June 2015, the Transportation and Public Works Department (TPW), Stormwater Management Division,
published a Request for Qualifications (RFQ) for various engineering and technical services, including
specialty services for information management in regards to Geographic Information Systems (GIS). Halff
Associates, Inc., was selected as the most qualified firm for this service.
Halff Associates, Inc., agrees to provide these services for the first year of the contract for an amount not
to exceed $800,000.00. Upon authorization of future appropriations for Fiscal Year 2018, the contract may
be renewed at the City's option for a second term for a total contract amount not to exceed $1,300,000.00.
Renewal may be effected by notice in writing by the City Manager or his designee to the contractor within
30 days of the expiration of the prior term. This action does not require specific City Council approval,
provided that the City Council has appropriated sufficient funds to satisfy the City's obligations during the
Logname: 20SWM CHANNEL INVENTORY Page I of 2
renewal term.
Upon completion of this contract, there is no anticipated annual operation cost to the TPW Stormwater
Management Division.
M/WBE Office - Halff Associates, Inc., is in compliance with the City's BDE Ordinance by committing to 33
percent SBE participation. The City's SBE contract goal on this project is 18 percent.
This Stormwater Management contract is located in ALL COUNCIL DISTRICTS.
FISCAL INFORMATION /CERTIFICATION:
The Director of Finance certifies that funds will be available in the current capital budget, as appropriated,
of the Stormwater Capital Projects Fund. The Stormwater Utility Fund has the responsibility to validate the
availability of funds prior to an expense being incurred.
