Other Requirement No. 9 of the Permit requires the City to collect data at each dam location on Mary's Creek downstream of the discharge for the purpose of refining dam aeration potential in the dissolved oxygen model of the system. Prior to data collection, the City is required to submit a Sampling Plan to the TCEQ Water Quality Assessment Team within the Water Quality Division of the TCEQ. This scope of work includes preparation of the Sampling Plan and subsequent coordination with TCEQ. The following Scope of Services describes BASIC SERVICES that are anticipated to be necessary for the project. A schedule for providing BASIC SERVICES is also included. ADDITIONAL SERVICES are also described, which are not necessary at this time, but which could become needed or desired later. The proposed BASIC SERVICES are described as Tasks 1 and 2.

Task 2: Coordination with TCEQ CONSULTANT respond to TCEQ's comments on the Sampling Plan and make revisions as necessary. Task 2 includes one (1) virtual meeting between CONSULTANT, the City, and TCEQ. TCEQ may approve, disapprove or modify the sampling plan within 60 days of receipt, with no response being equivalent to approval, at which time Task 2 will be considered complete. ADDITIONAL SERVICES ADDITIONAL SERVICES are those not anticipated to be needed at this time to accomplish the primary goals of this project; but which may become necessary at a later time or may become desired by the City at a later time. ADDITIONAL SERVICES may include, but are not limited to, the following: • Initiation of the Sampling Plan once approved by TCEQ; • Evaluation of water quality parameters not outlined in BASIC SERVICES; • Stream flow measurements of Mary's Creek; • Additional virtual meetings or in -person meetings with CLIENT and TCEQ.
