SWS-036 SCOPE OF WORK Preface Over the years, the City of Fort Worth has experienced growth and development throughout. As a result, some of the current floodplain delineations and studies may be outdated. Some streams within the City were never studied in detail. The purpose of these open channel studies is to assess the existing conditions of select open channels and to develop a master plan of improvements as needed. The existing conditions analysis includes detailed hydrologic and hydraulic analyses to determine probable flooding areas during exceedance storms and a comparison of results to existing studies (if available). The revision or development of a master plan of improvements for the study area will include a set of conceptual improvement alternatives to minimize flood impacts to homes and buildings. These studies may require the submittal of a LOMR to FEMA if the resultant flood analysis is significantly different from the current flood insurance study delineation and base flood elevations. Because of the number of studies that will be conducted, the City would like to develop a standardized approach for consistent data management and model development. The City has embarked on the development of a GIS inventory of the existing storm water management system. These studies will have data that will be relevant to the City's ongoing GIS inventory. Therefore, the submittal of GIS data to the City is required. For data management purposes, all of the reports and detailed analyses will be submitted to the City in an approved format. A standardized approach to documentation, submittals and approach will assist the City with data management of these and future studies. ATTACHMENT"A" Page 1 of 19 TRIBUTARY SC-7 AND EDGECLIFF BRANCH OPEN CHANNEL STUDY STUDY NO. SWS-036 Proiect Summary a. Purpose of Study Freese and Nichols (ENGINEER) are pleased to submit this proposal for preparation of a flood study for Tributary SC-7 and its tributaries, including Crowley Branch, Hawkwood Branch and Tributary SC-7A. The flood study also includes Edgecliff Branch and its tributary Misty Meadow Channel (See Attachment E). The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) floodplain map shows that Tributaries SC-7, SC-7A and Edgecliff Branch have defined floodplains noted as Zone AE on the FIRM and a defined floodway. Crowley Branch and Hawkwood Branch have defined floodplains noted as Zone A on the FIRM. The ENGINEER understands that the CITY has two needs regarding the Tributary SC-7 and Edgecliff Branch flood study. First, the ENGINEER will analyze the existing and fully developed watershed for Tributary SC-7 and Edgecliff Branch using best available data. Second, the ENGINEER will reestablish base flood elevations along Tributary SC-7 and its tributaries and Edgecliff Branch to more accurately define the existing condition floodplain. If warranted, this information will be used to provide an update to the effective FIRM. To accomplish this the ENGINEER proposes to complete an existing condition study for this project by developing hydrologic and hydraulic models to reflect current conditions and floodplain limits to the extents reflected on Attachment E. After modeling is complete, a report will be developed for CITY review that will be suitable for FEMA submittal as a Letter of Map Revision (LOMR) if so desired by CITY. The ENGINEER's services and products resulting from this study shall be referred to as "Tributary SC-7 and Edgecliff Branch Open Channel Study". The ENGINEER shall perform the project services in accord with (1) the Federal Emergency Management Agency floodplain modeling and mapping specifications and guidelines, (2) the City of Fort Worth Storm Water Management Design Manual, and (3) specific requirements and technical guidelines in this scope document. The City of Fort Worth Storm Water Management Design Manual shall be the prevailing document. b. Pertinent Data The reach of Tributary SC-7 and its tributaries to be studied for this Open Channel Study is from the Tributary SC-7 confluence with Sycamore Creek (downstream) southwest to west of the McCart Avenue crossing (upstream). Tributary SC-7 splits to the west of McCart Avenue and will be studied to Risinger Road and Tributary SC-7A will be studied to Columbus Trail. The reach of Edgecliff Branch to be studied for this Open Channel Study is from the BNSF railroad at the Fort Worth city limits and Edgecliff Village city limits (downstream) south to the Woodway Drive crossing (upstream). The study will also include the Misty Meadow Channel tributary to Edgecliff Branch between McCart Avenue (downstream) west to Sycamore School Road (upstream). See Attachment E — Location Map for study stream limits. ATTACHMENT"A" Page 2 of 19 Task 1: Project Management The ENGINEER's project management activities shall include task leadership and direction, telephone and written communication, bi-monthly project update meetings, project status reports, project schedule and updates, and personnel and data management among other general project management activities.

The ENGINEER will fully document all relevant hardware, software, file structures, and data formats used during the project. The details and structure to be followed are included in EXHIBIT A-1. The draft and final report format to be followed is included in EXHIBIT A-2. Other than intermittent meetings, all of the individual Task deliverables shall be submitted with the draft and final report at the conclusion of the study. The ENGINEER shall update a Project Certification and Decision Log to be submitted at the completion of the study. [ENGINEER: Add to project task unique activities particular to study that are beyond the standard scope.) Task 1 Deliverables: • Documentation • Summary of Tasks • Project Schedule • Support Data — Relevant meeting notes and email correspondence, project status updates, and action items for ENGINEER, sub-consultants, and the City of Fort Worth. • Completed Project Certification and Decision Log upon completion of the study. Task 2: Data Search Collection Field Reconnaissance Stream Condition Assessment, and Surveys a. Dataset Search and Collection The City of Fort Worth will provide the ENGINEER with the following watershed data in GIS format, in addition to the available models and reports: stream centerlines, street centerlines, 2007 aerial imagery, 2007 terrain surface in LAS format, existing and future land use data, 2007 subbasin delineations (may not be delineated for each site), high- ATTACHMENT"A" Page 3 of 19 water marks (if available), and zoning maps. Historical rainfall data and the as-built drawings of the hydraulic structures may be available from the City. The ENGINEER shall submit a written request to FEMA for all relevant available data from the effective Flood Insurance Study (FIS) including but not limited to: LOMRs, hydrologic and hydraulic data, reports, working maps, etc. The City shall determine the extent of the study along the stream. The ENGINEER shall use the City-provided watershed description, stream centerline, and 2007 terrain surface as part of the base data for modeling and mapping. If necessary, the ENGINEER may modify the stream centerline alignment during Tasks 3 and 4 according to topography, 2007 aerial imagery, or new survey data. Any errors identified or revisions made to the City's stream centerline and watershed boundary datasets shall be reported and discussed with the City's Project Manager. The ENGINEER will review and identify known flooding and drainage issues referred to as "hot spots" within the study area. The City will provide available drainage complaint reports to the ENGINEER. The identified "hot spots" shall be compiled into a GIS geodatabase. The City of Fort Worth's Storm Water Management Division shall assist the ENGINEER in locating required data available from the City, but the ultimate responsibility for identifying data needs and for finding, collecting, developing, analyzing, and creating all necessary data shall reside with the ENGINEER. If required data is unavailable, the ENGINEER shall inform the City in writing and discuss with the City's Project Manager for actions or determination. b. Field Reconnaissance The ENGINEER shall perform field reconnaissance to become familiar with the main stem and the appropriate tributaries, the hydraulic and hydrologic structures, land use, vegetative cover conditions of the floodplain, and special features and problems within the watershed. The ENGINEER is aware that not all natural channels are contained within City easements therefore property owner permission must be obtained by the ENGINEER to access private property. The ENGINEER shall document their reconnaissance efforts findings with labeled digital photographs. Typical channel and over-bank types shall be photographed and labeled with location and Manning "n" value assumptions. The ENGINEER shall document physical characteristics of the watershed relevant to modeling, including but not limited to: specific features of all major detention ponds and outlet discharge structures, vegetative and built structure conditions along the floodplains, types and number of hydraulic structures involved, apparent maintenance condition of channels, over-banks and existing hydraulic structures, locations and descriptions of stream cross-sections to be surveyed (including bridge railings and obstructed flow areas). c. Stream Condition Assessment ATTACHMENT"A" Page 4 of 19 The ENGINEER shall perform a stream condition assessment as a result of field reconnaissance efforts and document the locations of observed erosive conditions, channel stability issues, channel side-slope failure, failed channel protection, sediment transport, and/or other observed failures. The ENGINEER may assign a rating of "Excellent", "Good", "Fair", or "Poor'. The ENGINEER shall document the stream conditions assessment efforts with labeled digital photographs. The ENGINEER shall populate a GIS geodatabase of identified areas of concern. d. Field Surveys All bridges, culverts, and critical stream cross-sections (having substantial change in channel geometry and/or bed slope in contrast to upstream or downstream cross- sections) should be surveyed. The field surveys shall include any headwalls and outfalls along the channel. The maximum stream length distance between any two surveyed cross-sections shall not exceed approximately 1,500 feet. The City's Project Manager shall review the number of open channel cross-section and hydraulic structure surveys prior to a final scope of work. [The ENGINEER is to include the number of open channel cross-section and hydraulic structure surveys in the final scope.] The ENGINEER shall follow the current version of FEMA Guidelines and Specifications for Flood Hazard Mapping Partners Appendix N. Data Capture Guidelines to collect field survey data for open sections, bridges, culverts, and dams. Benchmarks shall be located and recorded for survey control. Available elevation reference marks shall be located and recorded at surveyed hydraulic structures. If elevation reference marks can not be located, they may be set at each surveyed hydraulic structure as a chiseled mark in a headwall, wingwall, bridge deck, etc in a manner suitable for future reference. The ENGINEER shall establish primary and secondary control points for survey. Primary control points are typically iron rods that are suitable for future reference. Secondary control points are set at each surveyed cross-section and are intended to establish the primary control data at each cross- section. Secondary control points are typically nails and are not intended to be permanent. The current version of FEMA Guidelines and Specifications for Flood Hazard Mapping Partners Appendix N. Data Capture Guidelines shall be used a guide to setting elevation reference marks. Field surveys of stream cross-sections shall be representative of the natural ground of the channel and overbanks. Surveys of bridges, culvert, dams or other hydraulic structures shall be representative of the hydraulic structure's geometry. A typical ground cross-section shall be surveyed upstream of the structure. Measurements and survey points defining the geometry of the hydraulic structures shall all be recorded in field notes. Field survey notes shall represent graphically and clearly, in plan and profile view, what was surveyed, photographed, and recorded. All of the sketches should depict the upstream face of the structure as well as the direction of flow. ATTACHMENT"A" Page 5 of 19 Digital photos shall be taken a channel. looking upstream Photos of the up team and downseams and looking downstream at th faces of the hydraulic structures shall be taken along with the upstream and downstream channel. Wherever possible, the pictures should contain the entire face of the structure. The ENGINEER will use the survey codes and format outlined in the FEMA Guidelines and Specifications for Flood Hazard Mapping Partners Appendix N: Data Capture Guidelines for survey text files. The text files shall include point number, northing, easting, elevation, and description. The ENGINEER shall submit the survey data as text files and in a GIS shapefile format. It is the responsibility of the ENGINEER to obtain property owner permission to perform surveys outside of City easements. The ENGINEER shall notify the local property owners that surveys and field reconnaissance will be conducted for a certain period time. e. Finished Floor Elevations The ENGINEER shall determine the finished floor elevations and lowest adjacent grades of buildings and residential homes within the current effective floodplain and anticipated revised areas. The ENGINEER shall meet with the City's Project Manager and discuss which buildings and homes will be surveyed prior to a final scope of work. Finished floor elevations shall be a separate budget item from the field surveys.

Task 3: Development of Detailed Hvdroloqic Models The ENGINEER shall develop detailed existing land-use conditions (and/or ultimate- development land-use conditions based on 2009 comprehensive plan if applicable) HEC-HMS models for the watershed. The City will determine if ultimate development land-use conditions are warranted for the study. The ENGINEER may use HEC- GeoHMS as a preprocessor to provide base information for the new hydrologic model. The hydrologic model shall be fully geo-referenced for seamless incorporation into the City's GIS inventory. The ENGINEER shall fully annotate the HEC-HMS model, including descriptive comments in all relevant fields, and clearly label the simulation runs with respect to the return period. The ENGINEER shall coordinate any occurrence of inter-basin transfer of flow with the City's Project Manager. If knowledge of inter- basin transfer of flows is known during the preparation of the scope, the ENGINEER shall provide details on how the hydrology and hydraulics will be modeled. ATTACHMENT"A" Page 7 of 19 The ENGINEER shall use the 2-, 5-, 10-, 25-, 50-, 100-, and 500-year return events to develop hydrologic and hydraulic models, water surface elevation profiles, and floodplain maps. If the basin is fully developed then ultimate land-use conditions will be assumed as "Existing Conditions". The ENGINEER shall model the 100-yr return event for ultimate conditions if existing conditions in the basin are not fully developed. The ENGINEER shall use representative historical rainfall data to perform hydrological analysis to perform a high water mark simulation/validation with hydraulic models. a. Rainfall The ENGINEER shall use ahall use the C►tduration of (SCS Type 11 StormoWater frequency) gement meteorological model and s Y Design Manual Appendix A rainfall depth-duration-frequency tables. b. Data Sources The ENGINEER shall review the current effective hydrologic and hydraulic models, Letters of Map Revision (LOMRs) approved after the current effective FIS study and City of Fort Worth land development projects and incorporate them into the study as appropriate. The ENGINEER may obtain "as built" drawings from the City (if available) for constructed regional ponds and other large residential and commercial ponds to be modeled. The stage-storage-discharge (SSD) rating curve for these ponds used in the model shall be verified as being accurate. If necessary, the SSD curves may be re- developed. In all cases, the SSD rating curve shall be the same for both the hydrologic and hydraulic models. The existing land-use conditions data, the 2009 projected future (ultimate) development land-use conditions data, topographic data (2007 ACS surface data), and the latest Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) Soil Survey Geographic (SSURGO) database shall be used in the hydrologic model development. c. Model Development The ENGINEER shall coordinate watershed boundaries with other concurrent studies. The subbasin size shall not exceed one-third of a square mile. Use of larger subbasins shall be discussed with the City's Project Manager. Break points (junctions) may be set at certain locations if requested by City's Project Manager. The ENGINEER shall conduct a "working session" with City staff to finalize watershed basin boundaries and junctions. If a conflict exists on a watershed boundary determination, it is usually the topographic data, not the storm drain system, that determines the watershed boundaries. However, if storm drain trunk lines or any other diversion/by-pass hydraulic structures exist in the watershed and divert a significant amount of flow from one basin to another, those hydraulic structures shall be modeled in the study. ATTACHMENT"A" Page 8 of 19 I The SCS unit hydrograph shall be utilized for developing the HMS model. The TR-55 equations and curves for estimating the time of concentration for overland (sheet) flow, shallow concentrated flow, and channel flow shall be used. Overland (sheet) flow length shall be no more than 50 — 100 feet for urban land-use conditions. The ENGINEER shall delineate and depict the longest flow path per subbasin and include the length and time of concentration per segment. The SCS curve number method shall be used for loss rate estimation. The ENGINEER shall prepare a table of impervious cover percentages and curve numbers for various land uses and soil conditions based on the City of Fort Worth Storm Water Management Design Manual. The runoff curve numbers for open space and undeveloped areas shall be based on the cover type and hydrologic condition of "Open Space, Good Condition." The composite curve number for each subbasin shall be computed based on a composite percentage of soil types. For modeling the existing land-use conditions of a suburban watershed, the impervious cover percentage shall be determined based on zoning districts. Impervious cover percentages per zoning district are listed in Table 1. The ENGINEER shall use the NCTCOG existing land-use spatial data and City 2007 aerial imagery to confirm that the current zoning districts have an accurate land use assignment. It is the ENGINEER's responsibility to properly determine the impervious cover percentage for sparsely located farmland houses which may or may not be directly connected to a surface drainage system. The ENGINEER shall use the City 2009 comprehensive plan to determine the impervious cover percentage for ultimate conditions for future growth and development.

Depth-Area Analysis Depth-Area Analysis (areal reduction) shall be used for watersheds with a drainage area of 9.6 square miles or greater. If necessary, peak flow tables for each return period and for both existing and future land-use conditions will be provided with peak flows computed at all subbasin outlets and hydrologic junction points with areal reduction for drainage areas (in square miles) of 0.0, 10, 20, 30, etc. up to the total watershed area. The peak discharge will be interpolated based on the drainage area at the appropriate junction location.

Results The model results shall be compared to available reliable recorded/historical rainfall- runoff data, including historic storm events. If no reliable recorded/historical rainfall- runoff data is available, the ENGINEER may run checks with other sources of data such as the local/regional regression equations, Current Flood Insurance Study, or the USGS's frequency-based 100-year peak flow versus watershed drainage area curve for similar watersheds. If significant differences are found, adjustments to the hydrologic model may be required. The ENGINEER shall prepare a table of peak flow rates for each of the return events analyzed. The ENGINEER shall compare the peak flows from the new study to those of the current effective (if available). The comparisons shall be summarized in the report. The ENGINEER shall document the methodologies and assumptions for each subbasin, details of calculating the time of concentration, subbasin and longest flow path delineations, creek centerline, software, and data sources used, any significant changes in flows between the old and new hydrologic models with an explanation of differences, and a table containing peak flows at each subbasin, junction, and pond location with areal reduction (if applicable), and any special technical issues and resolutions.

(If applicable) An ArcGIS 9.2 or later version of a personal geodatabase containing all final vector information developed under this task. • Support: Electronic versions of all information gathered, supporting materials and data in developing the hydrologic models, and work products created in this task, such that the models can essentially be duplicated with the backup data. • The ENGINEER shall submit two sets of DVDs containing electronic versions of all information gathered and work products created in this task. Task 4: Development of Hydraulic Models and Floodplain Maps The ENGINEER will use the latest HEC-RAS model software to develop hydraulic models for the study. The ENGINEER may use HEC-GeoRAS as a preprocessor to provide base information to the hydraulic model and as a post-processor to map the floodplains. The ENGINEER shall fully annotate the HEC-RAS model, including descriptive comments in all relevant fields, and clearly label the flow data profiles with respect to return period. Cross-sections or bridge/culvert structures that incorporate survey data shall include the survey data source, date and hydraulic structure name in the cross section data description. The ENGINEER may use FEMA's CHECK-RAS program to do an initial verification of the HEC-RAS models and address the issues it finds or provide an explanation of why a correction was unnecessary. The hydraulic model will be fully geo-referenced for seamless incorporation into the City's GIS inventory. a. Model Development The ENGINEER shall prepare the models to run under steady state conditions. The ENGINEER will meet with the City's Project Manager to determine whether an unsteady state model is warranted. The 2009 TNRIS LiDAR shall be used for hydraulic model development. Surveyed bridges, culverts, and critical stream cross-sections (having substantial change in channel geometry or slope) shall be incorporated into the HEC-RAS model. Other non- critical stream cross-sections shall be cut from the City's topographic data (if available) or the most accurate topographic data available. The cross-section layout shall be set in a reasonable manner consistent with the respective DFIRM (if available) taking into consideration hydraulics and floodplain mapping. As a general guideline, spacing between any two cross-sections shall not exceed approximately 200 ft unless directed by the City's Project Manager. The ENGINEER will conduct a "working session" with the City staff to review cross-sectional cut-line locations and layout. The ENGINEER will proceed with detailed hydraulics following City's review of the cross-section cut-line layout or as directed by the City's Project Manager. The ENGINEER shall discuss with ATTACHMENT"A" Page 12 of 19 the City's Project Manager whether channel invert interpolation between surveyed cross-sections is required. Interpolated cross-sections shall be kept to a minimum. If interpolated cross-sections are used in the development of the models, each section shall be labeled and described in the model and identified on a work map of the cross- section layout. The ENGINEER shall describe in the written the report the purpose of the interpolated cross-sections. All cross-section stations and reach lengths shall be rounded to the nearest foot. The ENGINEER shall assign Manning's n-values to a specific channel or over-bank area based on actual physical conditions using information from field reconnaissance, aerial photos, and the City of Fort Worth Storm Water Management Design Manual n- value reference tables. Composite n-values are recommended for the left overbank, channel, and right overbank. Caution will be exercised not to over- or under-estimate the "n" values. The composite "n" value in over bank flow areas shall be limited to 0.15. For any "n" value exceeding 0.15, the ENGINEER shall inform and discuss with the City's Project Manager for a final decision. It is recommended that the ENGINEER use the HEC-RAS functions of "blocked obstruction" and "ineffective flow area" whenever to enhance the model. The ENGINEER shall recreate or confirm the limits of the floodway. A floodway will not be evaluated or created for study areas that do not have an existing floodway. b. Flow Data Peak flows computed from a hydrologic model with proper areal reduction (if applicable) shall be put into the hydraulic model as close as possible in terms of location, e.g., subbasin junction location in HEC-HMS versus cross-section location in HEC-RAS. A table showing the HEC-RAS cross-section flow change locations and the corresponding HEC-HMS junction name shall be provided. The peak flow shall be the same in both models. In the case that a creek or channel runs through a subbasin in a hydrologic model (see an example attached below), the additional outflow from the subbasin shall be proportionally inserted in one of the following two methods: (Method 1) at 1/3 or at 2/3 of the channel segment within the subbasin, or (Method 2) approximately at middle of the channel segment (Figure 1).

Results If data is available, model results shall be compared with recorded stage levels or checked against known high water marks. The model results shall also be compared to known flooding events. If significant differences are found, adjustments to the hydraulic model may be required. The ENGINEER shall document all methodologies and assumptions, software used, data sources, problem areas, and significant changes in water surface elevations between the old and new hydraulic models. The ENGINEER will eliminate crossing profiles; however, given the number of profiles (for existing and future conditions) and the potential for minimal differences in computed flow rates, it is possible that some minor crossing of profiles cannot be resolved. The ENGINEER will coordinate these issues with the City staff. The ENGINEER shall produce an updated or new floodway data table. The lettered section should correspond with the locations of the effective study, ATTACHMENT"A" Page 14 of 19 The ENGINEER will produce water surface elevation profile plots for the 10-, 50-, 100-, and 500-year flood frequencies using FEMA RASPLOT 2.5 or later.

Base Flood Elevations (BFEs) will be generated and shown by wavy line contours drawn normal to the direction of the flow of water, perpendicular to the floodplain, but not necessarily perpendicular to the stream centerline. They shall extend completely across the existing conditions 100-year floodplain. Each BFE notation shall indicate its elevation (NAVD88) to the nearest whole foot.

The field survey will include a visual summary of channel conditions by river reach (photographs of the left and right bed and bank and upstream and downstream). The bed and bank material will be sampled for sieve analysis. The geology of the reach will be noted considering the rock type, degree of weathering, and thickness of the alluvial soils. Bank stability and degree of erosion will be noted, as well as the distance to and type of structure that may be impacted. Channel dimensions will be measured with a survey rod and laser to determine bank geometry. All locations will be marked with GPS receiver employing sub-meter accuracy. Preparation for the field is also included in this task. Task 2 — Preliminary Evaluation Preparation for the channel stability assessment report will include desk top analysis of the soils, landuse, channel and landscape, and geology. A field assessment overview will include the bed and bank material evaluation and calculation, equilibrium slope calculation, reach survey channel geometry calculations and reach structure and EXHIBIT"A-3" Page 1 of 5 distance from channel. For stream assessment calculations, the design or dominant flows from the models will be obtained from the modeling component of this project. Evaluation will include a summary of the study area, channel stability assessment methodology, and field assessment methodology. There will be a field assessment overview describing the geology and soils, bed material evaluation, equilibrium slope, and meander migration potential. The field survey results will include the reach survey data, the reach survey channel erosion, the reach survey channel geometry, and possible reach survey structure and distance from channel. Deliverables will also include labeled digital photos and locations of special physical characteristics that may be relevant to modeling and locations of observed areas of concern in addition to comments on the present conditions. d. Field Surveys For the Tributary SC-7 and Edgecliff Branch Open Channel study there are approximately thirty four (34) open channel cross-sections, approximately twenty one (21) hydraulic structures, and approximately fifty eight (58) residential or commercial structures finished floor elevations to be surveyed. The anticipated field survey locations are shown on Exhibit E — Location Map. The anticipated hydraulic structures to be surveyed are listed below.

EXHIBIT"A-3" Page 2 of 5 Task 3• Development of Detailed Hydrologic Models The ENGINEER shall develop existing conditions and fully developed conditions hydrologic models in HEC-HMS. One hydrologic model will be developed for the entire Tributary SC-7 watershed and one hydrologic model will be developed for the entire Edgecliff Branch watershed. The hydrologic models will be broken into sub-basins for tributaries and points of interest. Hydrologic modeling information from existing flood studies will be utilized where applicable. Hydrologic model results will be compared to existing studies. d. Routing The ENGINEER shall use Modified Puls routing for all streams. Routings will be determined based on hydraulic models created for this study. Specific attention will be paid to analyzing detention effects upstream of the railroad. Task 4• Development of Hydraulic Models and Floodplain Maps a. Model Development Hydraulics The 2009 TNRIS LiDAR shall be used for hydraulic model development. 1. Tributary SC-7 (4.33 mi), Crowley Branch (0.91 mi), Hawkwood Branch (0.57 mi) and Tributary SC-7A (0.88 mi) a. Hydraulic models will be based on surveyed cross sections and the latest 2-foot contours available. Hydraulic models will also attempt to utilize existing recent LOMR model/flood study information where possible. Existing LOMRs/flood studies include: i. Arcadia Development ii. Fox Run iii. Matador Ranch iv. Sundance Springs v. Sycamore Point b. There are approximately eleven (11) bridge/culvert crossings of Tributary SC-7, four (4) bridge/culvert crossings of Crowley Branch and one (1) bridge/culvert crossings of SC-7A that are proposed to be field surveyed. See Exhibit E Location Map for names and locations of proposed structures to be surveyed. c. Redelineation will tie-in to the effective FEMA floodplain of Sycamore Creek at the confluence of Tributary SC-7. d. Tributary SC-7A study will be terminated at the downstream (south) side of Columbus Trail. 2. Edgecliff Branch (1.80 mi) a. The model will be based on surveyed cross sections and the 2009 TNRIS LiDAR data. EXHIBIT"A-3" Page 3 of 5 b. There are approximately five (5) bridge/culvert crossings of Edgecliff Branch that are proposed to be field surveyed. See Exhibit E Location Map for names and locations of proposed structures to be surveyed. c. Redelineation will tie-in to the effective FEMA floodplain upstream of the Woodway Drive Culvert and upstream of the BNSF railroad bridge. 3. Misty Meadow Channel (0.54 mi) a. The model will be based on surveyed cross sections and the 2009 TNRIS LiDAR data. b. Engineer will establish Base Flood Elevations (BFEs) and FEMA floodplain for this unmapped stream. c. At the downstream limits, this tributary is connected to Edgecliff Branch by a 1200 LF culvert beneath McCart Avenue. Based on historic events, these culverts are undersized and much of the runoff from the Misty Meadows tributary is conveyed overland, causing flooding in McCart Avenue. Task 6: Proposed Flood Mitigation Alternative Analysis (if required) The ENGINEER will develop proposed improvement alternatives and corresponding conceptual cost opinions to reduce flooding impacts for the following: 1. Tributary SC-7 a. Develop up to a total of three (3) potential regional detention, buy-out and/or channel improvement alternatives. Potential detention locations may include, but are not limited to: upstream of Crowley Road and upstream of the existing railroad crossing. b. Develop proposed sizes for crossings to provide 100-year capacity for fully developed watershed conditions. 2. Tributary SC-7A, Hawkwood Branch and Crowley Branch a. Develop up to a total of three (3) potential regional detention, buy-out and/or channel improvement alternatives. b. Develop proposed sizes for roadway crossings to provide 100-year capacity for fully developed watershed conditions. 3. Edgecliff Branch a. Develop up to a total of three (3) potential regional detention, buy-out and/or channel improvement alternatives. b. Develop proposed sizes for roadway crossings to provide 100-year capacity for fully developed watershed conditions. 4. Local Improvement Recommendations a. Development of minor local improvement recommendations that are identified during the study such as localized erosion repair along the creek. Local improvement recommendations will be made for Tributary SC-7, SC-7A, Hawkwood Branch, Crowley Branch, Edgecliff Branch, and Misty Meadow Channel.

CODE: C TYPE: CONSENT PUBLIC NO HEARING: SUBJECT: Authorize Execution of an Agreement with Freese and Nichols, Inc., in the Amount of $398,735.00 for the Tributary SC-7 and Edgecliff Branch Open Channel Study (COUNCIL DISTRICT 6) RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended that the City Council authorize the City Manager to execute an agreement with Freese and Nichols, Inc., in the amount of$398,735.00 for the Tributary SC-7 and Edgecliff Branch Open Channel Study. DISCUSSION: The study recommended by this M&C will evaluate flood mitigation alternatives for the purpose of protecting structures from flooding in the two tributaries to Sycamore Creek in southwest Fort Worth near the intersection of McCart Avenue and Sycamore School Road. There are 159 buildings in the floodplain of these tributaries and 18 flood loss claims have been filed from past flood events in this area. This study will include the development of a comprehensive model and map of the floodplain. This data hasn't been updated since the last Flood Insurance Study (FIS) in 1986. Freese & Nichols, Inc., was one of 23 firms determined to be qualified for this project through a general Request for Qualifications (RFQ) selection process. Freese & Nichols, Inc., proposes to perform this study for a lump-sum fee of$398,735.00. City staff considers this fee to be fair and reasonable for the scope of services proposed, based on the size of the watershed and length of the stream. The Stormwater Utility Fund will be used to fund this study. Freese and Nichols, Inc., is in compliance with the City's M/WBE Ordinance by committing to 20 percent M/WBE participation. The City's goal for this project is 20 percent. This project is located in COUNCIL DISTRICT 6. FISCAL INFORMATION/CERTIFICATION: The Financial Management Services Director certifies that funds are available in the current operating budget, as appropriated, of the Stormwater Utility Fund.
