DISCUSSION:
The Storm Water Management Program was established to reduce flooding in Fort Worth, preserve
streams, minimize water pollution and to operate the storm water system in a more effective manner to fully
comply with state and federal regulatory requirements. This will be accomplished by infrastructure
reconstruction and system maintenance, master planning, enhanced development review, and increased
public education and outreach.
The scope of the project includes the preparation of a drainage study that will evaluate existing conditions,
hydrology, hydraulics and provide recommendations for the necessary improvements for Raider Channel in
order to alleviate flooding of businesses along the channel located south of Pipeline Road.
Stream Water Group, Inc., proposes to perform the necessary engineering services for a lump sum fee of
$50,305.00. City Staff considers this to be fair and reasonable for the scope of services proposed.
In addition to the contract amount, $7,547.00 is required for project management by the Engineering
Department for project management.
M/WBE -Stream Water Group, Inc., is in compliance with the City's M/WBE Ordinance by committing to 18
percent M/WBE participation. The City's goal on this project is 15 percent.
