Proposed Contract Amendment 1
Dear Pat:
Attached please find our proposed amendment to the design contract for the Trinity River
Vision Central City Bridges to include the following modifications:
1. Additional Surveying: During the course of redesigning the plans and profiles of the
roadways, and redesigning the detour roads, additional survey is now needed given
these new roadway configurations. This additional survey scope is described in
Attachment B. Furthermore, the original scope included surveying of the railroad tracks
adjacent to the Henderson and White Settlement bridges (see Exhibit A-2, Phase 1,
Paragraph 13-5-i); this scope is no longer anticipated to be needed.
2. Additional Environmental: Since the original contract was executed in 2009, TxDOT has
developed additional environmental requirements related to Indirect and Cumulative
Impact studies that are required for the three bridges. This additional scope is
described in Attachment C.
3. Reduced Public Involvement: The original scope (see Exhibit A-2, Phase 1, Paragraph A-
21) included two weeks of open house public meetings which are no longer needed and
therefore eliminated from the scope.
4. Additional Geotechnical: Further investigate the soft soils found at Henderson to
determine the proper construction techniques necessary. This additional scope is
described in Attachment D.
For this additional scope we propose an additional lump sum fee of $48,201, for an amended
total contract amount of $3,812,402.

Since submittal of the last Draft CE, comments from TxDOT-ENV have been issued indicating
significant revisions to the Indirect and Cumulative Sections (ICI) of the Draft CE for SH 199. It
is therefore assumed that each of the three documents will need to be prepared with a revised
ICI.
PROJECT MANAGEMENT— FUNCTION CODE 110
A. General administration of the work authorization, including internal staffing and task
assignments, invoices and progress reports.
B. Review all work for compliance with TxDOT's and City of Fort Worth's current practices
and procedures, policies, standards, specifications and design criteria prior to
submission of deliverables.
Summary of Deliverables
1. Project schedule and periodic updates.
2. Monthly invoices and progress reports;
3. Status meeting minutes
II. ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT —FUNCTION CODE 120
The ENGINEER shall make a revision to the original Categorical Exclusion (CE's) for
Indirect and Cumulative Impacts (ICI) to comply with TxDOT's September 2010
Guidance on Preparing Indirect and Cumulative Impact Analyses. Potential impacts shall
be revisited and assessed on the basis of existing information and additional research.
All Environmental Reports will be in accordance with 43 Texas Administrative Code
(TAC) 2.40-2.51, Council on Environmental Quality Regulations (40 CFR 1500-1508),
Code of Federal Regulations, Title 23, Part 771, the FHWA Technical Advisory
T6640,8A, and the current Environmental Affairs Manual.
Major revisions concern the Indirect and Cumulative Impacts analysis (ICI) to be
consistent with the TxDOT guidelines that came out in June of 2009. A re -write of this
section is required. TxDOT's new 2009 guidance document also requires information
regarding the location, size, type, and longevity of the impacts discussed in the CE in
order to better understand the impact -causing activities that would occur with the
proposed project. Based on TxDOT's guidelines, the study area goals should now
discuss the three types of indirect effects and discuss whether all three types of impacts
are associated with the subject project. A request has been made to assume that
induced growth would occur and quantify the amount of vacant land in a discussion per
TxDOT's ICI guidelines.
Page 1 of 4
TXDOT'S guidelines suggest summarizing all indirect effects that were identified, whether
or not they were considered potentially substantial, and also list and discuss the rational
for each in a table format. FHWA now requires a quantitative assessment of the impacts.
For example, if vegetation and wildlife habitat is indirectly impacted by 500 acres of
induced development, we would need to report the acres of the various vegetation types
in the AOI (e.g. fence line trees, bottomland hardwoods, riparian, pasture, etc.), and the
acres of each type that would be potentially impacted by the development. If waters of
the U.S. are impacted, then we would need to report linear miles of streams and acres of
wetlands. A conclusion paragraph using future land use plan or zoning data and
supplemented with a Delphi panel is suggested in the TxDOT's new guidelines.
The environmental investigation and revision will address in detail the following:
A. Indirect and Cumulative Impacts
1. Indirect Impacts
An indirect and cumulative impact assessment will be prepared for the proposed
project. The assessment will be conducted in accordance with FHWA and Council on
Environmental Quality (CEQ) regulations and guidance documents. Indirect effects
will be assessed based on guidance described in the Transportation Research
Board's (TRB) National Cooperative Highway Research Program (NCHRP) Report
25-25, Task 22: Forecasting Indirect Land Use Effects of Transportation Projects
(TRB, 2007); NCHRP Report 466: Desk Reference for Estimating the Indirect Effects
of Proposed Transportation Projects (TRB, 2002) and the new June 2009 TxDOT
Guidance on Preparing Indirect and Cumulative Impact Analyses.
This effort will entail coordination with local and regional planning bodies and will
include an analysis of potential secondary effects of the proposed
improvements. The 7-step process will include the following:
1) Scoping to determine the general approach, level of effort required to
complete the study, and the geographical boundaries of the study area;
2) Identification of the study area's direction and goals;
3) Inventory of the study area's notable features and specific environmental
issues against which the project may be assessed are identified within the indirect
effects analysis study area;
4) Identification of impact -causing activities of proposed action and alternatives
including a detailed comprehensive list of the impact -causing actions of the Build
Alternative;
5) Identification of potentially significant indirect effects for analysis that includes
project impact -causing actions are compared with the lists of goals and notable
features to explore potential cause effect relationships and establish which effects
are potentially significant and merit subsequent detailed analysis;
6) Analyze indirect effects, the significance of effects identified in Step 5 is
assessed by determining the magnitude, probability of occurrence, timing and
duration, and degree to which the effect can be controlled or mitigated;
7) Evaluation of analysis results which will evaluate the uncertainty of the results
of the indirect effects analysis and its outcome on the overall assessment; and
assessment of consequences in order to better develop mitigation. The
consequences of indirect effects are evaluated in the context of the full range of
project effects. Strategies to avoid or lessen any effects found to be unacceptable
are developed. Effects are reevaluated in the context of those mitigation strategies.
Page 2 of 4
2. Cumulative Impacts
A cumulative impacts analysis using the 8-step process will be accomplished in order
to meet Federal legal sufficiency standards and to view the direct and indirect
impacts of the Build Alternative within the larger context of past, present, and future
activities that are independent of the Build Alternative, but which are likely to affect
the same resources in the future. These same resources are then evaluated from the
standpoint of their relative abundance among similar resources within a larger
geographic area. Broadening the view of resource impacts in this way allows the
decision maker to evaluate the incremental impacts of the proposed build alternative
in light of the overall health and abundance of selected resources. The cumulative
impacts evaluation will create a model of the predicted condition of each resource
that is independent of the Build Alternative, and then analyze the expected direct and
indirect impacts of the project within that context to determine if there is a cumulative
impact. The 8-step process will include the following:
1) Identify the resources to consider in the analysis
2) Define the study area for each affected resource
3) Describe the current health and historical context for each resource
4) Identify direct and/or the indirect impacts that may contribute to a cumulative
impact (Analysis is required if either a direct or impact is identified for a particular
resource.)
5) Identify other reasonably foreseeable actions that may affect resources
6) Assess potential cumulative impacts to each resource
7) Report the results
8) Assess and discuss mitigation issues for all adverse impacts
ASSUMPTIONS
The following are conditions that, if changed, will trigger potential additional effort and have the
potential to trigger additional supplemental agreement(s):
1) The design for Henderson Street, North Main, and White Settlement will be provided by
Freese and Nichols to AECOM on or before June 1St. This design will include final ROW
takes and design elements at a sufficient detail for environmental clearance.
2) The current environmental standards for ICI preparation are in accordance to the
TxDOT's September 2010 Guidance on Preparinq Indirect and Cumulative Impact
Analyses. (September 2010).
3) The review of all three documents at the state and federal level will be conducted and
completed before substantial changes occur to the current environmental standards,
guidelines, and procedures.

Re: Proposal for Additional Geotechnical Services
Central City Bridges
Henderson Street
Mas-Tek Proposal No: P11-0110E (revised)
Dear Mr. Sansone:
Mas-Tek Engineering &Associates (Mas-Tek) understands that we have been selected for the
above referenced project based upon our qualifications in accordance with the Professional
Services Procurement Act for providing geotechnical engineering services. We are pleased to
submit this proposal for additional geotechnical engineering services for the project referenced
above.
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The project consists of a new bridge for Henderson Street that will span over a proposed new
channel. In addition to the new bridge, a new retaining wall will be constructed on the north side
of the proposed bridge. Mas-Tek Engineering has previously performed geotechnical
investigations for this project. This proposal is for additional geotechnical services to
supplement the previous geotechnical investigations.
SCOPE OF WORK
The geotechnical investigation performed for the referenced project will consist of field and
laboratory investigations, engineering analysis, and a report prepared by a Registered
Professional Engineer.

Field Investigation
We understand that due to the urgency of this work that the City of Fort Worth will not require a
bond and will not require additional insurance in the performance of our work. Pricing for a bond
and additional insurance is not been included in this proposal. If a bond and additional
insurance is required, additional fees and additional time would be required. It could take weeks
to obtain the bond and additional insurance.
The field investigation will consist of drilling three (3) sets of three (3) test borings for the
proposed retaining walls, A total of nine (9) retaining wall test borings will be drilled to depths of
12.5 feet below the existing ground surface. At each set of borings, one boring will be drilled in
the far right west bound lane, one boring will be drilled in the far right east bound lane, and one
boring will be drilled in the center turn lane. Standard penetration testing will be performed in
conjunction with split spoon sampling on 2 foot intervals for these retaining wall borings.
In addition to the retaining wall borings, two (2) bridge borings will be drilled. The purpose of
these bridge borings is to extend at least fifteen (15) feet below the deepest anticipated pier
penetration. Reportedly, the deepest anticipated pier penetration is 25 feet of penetration.
Therefore, the two (2) bridge borings will be drilled until 40 feet of unweathered rock is
penetrated. We anticipate encountering unweathered rock at a depth of 55 feet below existing
ground surface. Therefore, the bridge borings are anticipated to be advanced to depths of 95
feet below the existing ground surface. The soil and rock encountered in the bridge borings will
be evaluated on 5 foot intervals using the Texas Department of Transportation Penetrometer
(TxDOT Cone).
Mas-Tek Engineering assumes that the client has the right -of -entry to the property and that the
boring locations will be accessible to our conventional truck mounted drilling equipment during
normal working hours. Should unusual soil conditions be encountered, we will call you with a
recommendation and cost estimate to explore these unusual conditions. All samples will be
properly logged, packaged, sealed, and placed in a core box for transportation to the laboratory.
Mas-Tek Engineering will contact Dig Tess and the City of Fort Worth Water Utilities to have
them locate underground utilities. However, Mas-Tek Engineering is not responsible for damage
to underground utilities that are not identified prior to drilling.
Traffic control will be required in order to drill these test borings. Traffic control plans
(unstamped) will be developed and submitted for approval prior to starting the field work. The
approved traffic control will be used for this project. If engineered stamped traffic control plans

are required, these can be provided based upon the unit rates provided in the attached
contingency items.
The soil samples retrieved during the drilling operations will be screened by a driller helper
using a PID meter. As long as the PID meter readings are below the threshold (established by
client), then the test borings will be drilled without using environmental protocol and the borings
will be backfilled with soil cuttings.
If PID meter readings are obtained that are over the established threshold, then the drilling
operations will be shutdown until drums, steam cleaner, and an environmental consultant are at
the site. Any identified contaminated soils will be placed in drums. The borings having
contaminated soils will be backfilled with cement / bentonite grout. The drilling equipment will be
cleaned with a high pressure washer if contaminated soils are encountered. The water used to
clean the drilling equipment will be placed in drums. All drums will be moved to a staging area at
the end of the project as selected by the client. Hauling off drums to waste landfills is not part of
our scope of services.
Laboratory Investigation
Laboratory tests will be conducted to classify the soil and to evaluate the volume change
potential and strength of the soil and rock present at the site. Soil classification tests will consist
of Atterberg limits (plasticity index) and moisture content tests. The strength of the soil will be
estimated using hand penetrometer test and unconfined compressive strength testing.
If PID meter readings are obtained that are over the established threshold, then a total of four
(4) samples will be subject to environmental testing to determine the presence of hydrocarbons
within the soil samples. The retaining wall borings are anticipated to require two (2) days to
complete. For each of these two days, the two (2) samples with the highest readings from the
PID meter will be submitted for testing. The testing will consist of BTEX, MTBE and TPH. If TPH
is detected in the greater than C12 range for any of these samples, then PAH testing will also
be performed.
Engineering Analyses
Results of field and laboratory work will be presented in a supplemental engineering report. The
report will include our recommendations to guide design and construction of the bridge and
retaining wall foundations and will include the following:
1. Plan of borings, boring logs, water level observations, and laboratory test results.
2. Verification of bridge foundation recommendations provided in original report.

GEOTECHNICAL FEES
Based on the proposed scope of work, a fee estimate for this project is attached. The fee
estimate is based upon encountered unweathered rock at an average depth of 55 feet at the
bridge borings. If the average depths to unweathered rock are greater than 55 feet, then the test
borings will have to be deepened until 40 feet of unweathered rock is penetrated. The additional
footage will be invoiced according to the unit rates provided in the attached estimate. If a bond
and additional insurance is required, additional fees and additional time would be required. It
could take weeks to obtain the bond and additional insurance.
