City of Fort Worth Water Department
Water Efficiency and Condition Assessment Program Phase 1
Scope of Services
3/22/2017
Project Understanding:
The Fort Worth Water Department (FWWD) has retained Freese and Nichols (FNI) to develop a Water
Efficiency Condition Assessment Program (WECAP). The Fort Worth water distribution system consists of
approximately 3,500 miles of pipe, with an average age of 31 years. In 2014, Water Department staff
geocoded all available work orders related to water main breaks or leaks from 1971 to the present
(approximately 43,000 breaks/leaks). All work orders associated with a water main break or leak were
assigned to a specific main segment in the City's GIS database. With this initial data intensive work
complete, FNI understands that the FWWD desires to have a sustainable tool to identify water lines for
renewal and further field investigations for budgeting and coordination with the rehabilitation needs in the
sewer system and with other departments, such as Transportation and Public Works (T/PW). Phase 1 will
apply InfoMaster to assign risk scores for all the water lines and include a rebuild of the hydraulic water
model which links to GIS.
The WECAP program is a proactive approach that utilizes a support decision-making tool for identifying and
prioritizing inspection, rehabilitation and renewal strategies for raw water transmission and water
distribution pipelines. Below are the outlined tasks for Phase 1 of the WECAP project.
WECAP Phase 1 Scope of Work(Water model update and InfoMaster development for the water system):
® Task A: Develop Goals and Purpose of WECAP and Develop Citywide Multi-Year Work Plan
o Task B: All Pipes Hydraulic Water Model Rebuild to allow for One-One Connectivity with GIS and
InfoMaster Software
® Task C: Risk Based Assessment of all water lines (Condition and Criticality) using InfoMaster
Software
Task A. Project Management Services and Development of Goals and Purpose of WECAP
A.1 Administration: Perform general administration duties with the project,including progress meeting
scheduling,general correspondence, office administration,and monthly invoicing.
A.2 Prepare Data,Mapping,and Presentation for Workshop: FNI will work with FWWD to develop data,

team will discuss risk based renewal prioritization strategies, and review available condition and
work order data for raw water transmission and water distribution lines.The team will also discuss
condition and criticality parameters and scoring system to be used in risk based assessment
approach to water infrastructure prioritization.
A.4 Document Control: FNI has established Document Control procedures to enable proper
recordkeeping and retrieval.The Document Control procedures use a standardized electronic and
paper file index,set up at the outset of the project.Protocols are observed for electronic and paper
records, confidentiality and security, and proper distribution and retention. Documents will be
assigned unique names and the filename and path included in the footer of each document.
A.5 Monthly Progress Reports: A Monthly Status Report will be submitted, summarizing progress
against specific tasks and scheduled tasks to be accomplished in the upcoming month; outlining
upcoming key decisions which will require input from, or discussion with, City staff; and listing any
problems or unresolved issues.
A.6 Data Collection: FNI will compile information from the City including GIS files, as-built,work order
data and preliminary design drawings for projects currently under design.
A.7 Develop Multi-Year Work Plan: FNI will develop an overall work plan for WECAP. FNI will develop
a yearly budget of the prioritized raw water transmission and distribution lines 16-inches and larger
based on the inspection technology required, pipe wall research, remaining useful life scoring and
program management. FNI will summarize work plan in a technical memorandum and provide five
(5) copies.
Task B.City-wide All Pipes Water Model Rebuild
B.1 Evaluate GIS for Completeness for Developing All-Pipes Water Model: FNI will analyze water GIS
information and historical mapping data to determine additional attribute data needs or
connectivity corrections needed for water model development. FWWD staff will assist with the
evaluation and provide,recommendations for GIS modifications.
B.2 Meet with WaterlT GIS personnel to Review Modifications Needed for Model Development and
Maintenance:Meet with City to review GIS coverage,updating process,and available attribute data
and to discuss modifications needed to support water model in the future. FWWD will verify
compatibility between Innovyze InfoWater Software and MyH2O meter management software
with the assistance of FNI staff.
B.3 Conduct Modifications to GIS Data to Fix Connectivity Problems throughout Selected Water Lines:
FNI will run node connection routines on all selected lines to be modeled and conduct adjustments
to fix all connectivity problems. Initial connectivity issues will be addressed in the model or GIS
data, but all subsequent geometric network modifications will occur in the GIS platform by FWWD
staff.
3/22/2017 Page 2 of 5
®N ICH FORTWORTH.
B.4 Develop Water System Model to Include All Pipes: FNI will update the water model in Innovyze
InfoWater software using the current GIS lines and as-built drawings of pumping, storage and
control valve facilities.The all-pipes model will consist of all lines that are currently in the GIS plus
recently constructed lines that may not appear in the GIS. FNI will work with FWWD staff to develop
a process for identifying and flagging lines to be added to the model which are not in the current
GIS database. FWWD staff will digitize recently constructed lines that may not appear in the GIS.
B.5 Assign Attribute Data to Water Model Pipes and Nodes: FNI and FWWD staff will assign GIS based
IDs to all nodes and pipes in the hydraulic model based on GIS Ips to maintain a 1:1 relationship.
Nodes will be attributed to provide data flagging for source reference. Nodes will also be assigned
a point type,elevation, pressure plane,and installation year if available. Each pipe in the hydraulic
model will be assigned a diameter, roughness coefficient, and pressure plane. Additional
information will include, if available, installation year, material,and x-file number.
B.6 Update Facilities Data in Model: FNI will update the water model to include most current facility
information such as on site piping configuration, pump curves, pumping rates, storage tank
dimensions,and valve types/operating parameters.
B.7 Update Diurnal Curves in Model: FNI will update the diurnal curve information for each model node
in the hydraulic model. Curves include retail curves, and large users for each pressure plane as well
as wholesale customer curves for each delivery point.
B.3 Update Demand Distribution Based on Available Geocoding Billing Meter Data: FNI will assign and
distribute water demands based on the latest round of geocoded billing meter data. FNI will utilize
the data to assign demand for up to three different demand scenarios. Nodes will be attributed to
provide data flagging for future reference. FWWD staff will geocode water billing meter data to be
added to the water model.
B.9 Update Model Scenario Controls: FNI will replicate pump and.valve controls for up to three demand
scenarios to simulate operating conditions in the distribution system. FNI will use the existing GIS
pressure plane value status'to identify pipes to be closed acting as divider valves between pressure
planes.
B.10 Verify Updated Model Simulation Status to Existing Results: FNI will run the hydraulic model and
compare the results of the updated model to the existing model results, for up to three scenarios,
to establish consistency and confidence in the accuracy of the updated results. Model results which
will be compared include: pump station/valve flows, tank levels and cycling, and pressures from
known field tested locations.
B.11 Meet with FWWD to Review Updated Model: FNI will meet with FWWD staff to review and discuss
the results of the updated hydraulic model. FNI will deliver a brief technical memorandum detailing
model update process and changes made to the hydraulic model, A flow chart/model update
schematic will be provided for future use and updating of the model. FNI will deliver an electronic
copy of the updated model to the FWWD for their records and use.

Task C.Raw Water and Water Distribution System Risk Based Assessment
C.1 Data Evaluation and Gap Analysis: FNI will review and evaluate existing raw water transmission and
water distribution pipeline data including GIS, work order history, main break history, and
maintenance data to determine suitability for use of data in InfoMaster Water. FNI will identify
gaps in desired data including the magnitude of effort required to collect the data and level of
importance.
C.2 Collect and Attribute Missing Data Identified in Gap Analysis: FNI develop a plan to collect the data
gaps identified in the previous tasks. FNI will collect and attribute missing data to existing data
sources to a reasonable degree of data completeness. FNI will digitize in GIS the raw water
transmission lines, vaults and test stations. FWWD will be responsible for filling the gaps that
require field services or changes to ESRI GIS data model or IBM Maximo.
C.3 Develop Draft Condition and Criticality Scoring Parameters for Pipelines: FNI will work with FWWD
to develop a draft condition and criticality scoring program in InfoMaster Water. FNI will utilize
InfoMaster Water to store condition and criticality parameters.
+ Potential condition parameters include:
o Pipe age
o Pipe material
o Maintenance history
o Main break history
o Etc.
+ Potential criticality data includes:
o Redundancy
o Number of customers served
o Ease of access for repairs

Mayor and Council Communication
COUNCIL ACTION: Approved on 5/2/2017
DATE: Tuesday, May 2, 2017 REFERENCE NO.: **C-28215
LOG NAME: 60WECAP-FNI
SUBJECT:
Authorize Agreement in the Amount of$195,413.00 with Freese & Nichols, Inc., for the Water Efficiency
and Condition Assessment Program (ALL COUNCIL DISTRICTS)
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council authorize execution of an Agreement in the amount of
$195,413.00 with Freese & Nichols Inc., for the Water Efficiency and Condition Assessment Program and
Water Pipeline Risk Model Development.
DISCUSSION:
On August 26, 2008, Mayor and Council Communication (M&C C-22997) the City Council authorized an
agreement with Freese & Nichols Inc., to update the Wastewater System Master Plan. This update
included the development of a risk-based assessment on gravity sewer mains, force mains, and lift
stations. From the risk resuIts,recommendations were developed for pipeline inspection and pipeline
renewal programs, along with the associated cost impacts.
This agreement would develop a similar risk-based model for the water distribution system. The Water
Efficiency and Condition Assessment Program (WECAP) would include prioritizing pipeline inspection,
and pipeline renewal program. The WECAP project is a multi-phase project with the initial phase
consisting of the following:
- Develop a multi-year work plan, including an annual budget for inspection, prioritized water main
replacements, and remaining useful life scoring parameters
- Develop water system model to include all distribution pipelines and update water demand distribution
- Develop condition and criticality scoring parameters for pipeline replacement
- Develop risk-based assessment to identify high risk water pipelines
- Develop a report that documents the methodology and recommendations from the risk-based
assessment model.
Future phases of WECAP will consist of further development of the water risk-based model, development
of an inspection program for condition assessment of large diameter raw water and distribution mains,
development of a prioritized leak detection and survey program and long-term funding for the renewal
program.
M/WBE Office:A waiver of the goal for MBE/SBE subcontracting requirements was requested by
Department and approved by the M/WBE Office, in accordance with the BDE Ordinance, because the
purchase of goods or services from source(s) where subcontracting or supplier opportunities are
negligible.
The project affects ALL COUNCIL DISTRICTS.
