current professional liability insurance policy, if not renewed, shall provide for an extended

reporting period on the existing policy through said fifth (5th) calendar year.

K. Consultant shall, upon request by the Authority, deliver to the Authority a copy of each

insurance policy purchased by Consultant.

L. All policies, except for workers’ compensation and professional liability, shall contain

provisions to the effect that in the event of payment of any loss or damage the insurer will

have no rights of subrogation against the Authority, its consultants, directors, officers,

employees, representatives or agents. Nothing contained in these insurance requirements


21

is to be construed as limiting the liability of Consultant or Consultant’s insurance carriers.

M. The commercial (occurrence form) or comprehensive general liability (occurrence form)

insurance shall include contractual liability insurance applicable to all of the Consultant’s

obligations under the Agreement, including any indemnity or hold harmless provision.

N. Consultant shall require each of its subcontractors, suppliers and other persons or

organizations working for Consultant to procure and maintain, until the completion of that

party’s services, insurance of the types and in the coverage amounts required to be carried

by Consultant in the Agreement unless the Authority agrees, in writing, to other types of

coverage and/or lower coverage amounts. Provided, however, professional liability

insurance shall not be required under the Agreement for subcontractors, suppliers or other

persons or organizations working for Consultant, unless such party is a licensed

professional. The preceding sentence does not preclude Consultant for requiring such

insurance. Consultant shall be responsible for ensuring all of its subcontractors, suppliers

and other persons or organizations working for Consultant in connection with the Project

comply with all of the insurance requirements contained herein relative to each such party.

PEACE RIVER REGIONAL RESERVOIR (PR3) PROJECT

SCOPE OF SERVICES - SITING AND FEASIBILITY PHASE

AUGUST 5, 2020

INTRODUCTION

The Peace River Manasota Regional Water Supply Authority’s (Authority) Water Resiliency Assurance Plan is a continuing program of infrastructure improvements to support regional water supply resiliency and meet growing drinking water needs across a 4-county area by interconnecting major water supplies and developing additional alternative water supply (AWS) capacity. As part of the Water Resilience Assurance Plan, the Authority will develop additional drinking water supply capacity through expanding surface water supply facilities at the Peace River Facility. This additional AWS capacity development will require increased withdrawal capacity on the Peace River, increased water treatment capacity, and an additional off-stream raw water storage reservoir. The Authority’s existing off-stream reservoir system includes two reservoirs with a combined storage capacity of 6.5 billion gallons. Water withdrawn from the Peace River is stored in the reservoir system and supplies the Peace River Water Treatment Facility that currently provides an average 26 MGD drinking water supply to Charlotte, DeSoto, and Sarasota Counties and the City of North Port. Reservoir #1 is primarily a below-grade reservoir completed in 1980 with approximately 500 million gallons of usable storage. Reservoir #2 is an above-ground reservoir completed in 2009 that provides 6.0 billion gallons of normal operating raw water storage. The reservoirs are located on lands owned by the Authority and/or the Southwest Florida Water Management District (SWFWMD). Water is withdrawn from the Peace River at a 120 MGD pump station adjacent to the Peace River Water Treatment Facility. Withdrawals are made in accordance with a flow-based withdrawal schedule included in the Authority’s Water Use Permit (WUP). The WUP was modified in February 2019, authorizing an increase in maximum withdrawal rate from the river from 120 MGD to 258 MGD. The Authority’s permitted withdrawal schedule enables the harvest of a small percentage of high flow from the river for off-stream storage and supply to the Authority’s Peace River Water Treatment Facility. While the withdrawal schedule preserves the majority of river flow supporting the Charlotte Harbor estuary, the reliability of this supply depends on the ability to harvest water quickly when that resource is available, and the availability of large volume off-stream reservoirs to store that resource. The Authority has entered into a contract with HDR Engineering, Inc. (HDR) to provide professional services for planning, design, permitting, bidding, construction and other related services associated with the Peace River Regional Reservoir (PR3) Project (Project) to support the Authority’s development of additional drinking water supply. This Work Order is for services associated with the Feasibility and Siting Phase of the PR3 Project. Other phases of the PR3 Project will be defined in separate future Work Orders.

SCOPE OF SERVICES

This scope of services describes professional services to be provided by HDR to the Authority for the Feasibility and Siting Phase (Phase) of the PR3 Project. HDR will administer the PR3 Project as the prime consultant.

TASK 1 - PROJECT MANAGEMENT, COMMUNICATION AND COORDINATION

As the prime consultant HDR will be responsible for project administration, coordination of subconsultants, communication amongst the consultant project team and the Authority staff, adherence to schedule and budget, development and quality control of deliverables, and invoicing.

Task 1.1 Project Management and Progress Reporting

HDR will prepare and distribute a monthly progress report regarding project status and to document project decisions made throughout the duration of the project. The report will be summary in nature and focus on documentation of key decisions rather than presenting exhaustive detail. The project manager will be the primary point of contact for the Authority, will make staffing assignments, review work progress, manage budgets and schedules, and oversee quality assurance and review procedures.

Subtask 1.1 includes establishment of project entries into HDR’s information system and the development of a Project Management Plan that includes internal project procedures, filing system, communications plan, a work breakdown structure and assignments for HDR and subconsultants, quality plan, safety plan, and other project specific information. HDR’s Project Management Plan will be provided to the Authority for informational purposes only. Project management includes oversight, management, and accounting of consultant activities on the project; this includes HDR and subconsultant staff management.


Task 1.2 Meetings and Coordination

The project manager and team members will meet regularly with the Authority staff and periodically with Authority Customer staff, SWFWMD staff and the Authority Board to keep them informed of the project status and discuss upcoming activities and deliverables; details of planned meetings are presented below. HDR will prepare meeting agendas and meeting summaries to document key discussions and track progress. HDR will also develop and maintain a project decision log, documenting project decisions over the course of the project. In addition to ongoing, routine coordination calls between HDR and the Authority, HDR will participate in the following meetings associated with overall Project Management, Communication and Coordination:

• Project Kickoff Meeting and site visit – held within 1 month of NTP; • Monthly Progress Meetings – up to 15; • Staff Member Meetings – HDR will participate in, and may present at, meetings held between

the Authority and Customer staff (anticipated to be quarterly, up to 4); • Board Meetings – HDR may prepare and deliver presentations to the Board on such topics as

project progress, site selection for project features, conceptual design advancement and recommendations for advancing the Project from this Feasibility and Siting Phase to Preliminary Design Phase (up to 3 meetings, as requested).

Other than workshops described separately in Tasks 2-8, other discussions/meetings regarding project tasks will be conducted as part of monthly progress meetings on the Project between HDR and the Authority.

Authority and stakeholder review comments on initial drafts of technical memoranda and work products, except the Draft Feasibility and Siting Report of Task 8, will be discussed during Monthly Progress Meetings rather than scheduling separate comment resolution meetings. Review comments will be provided to HDR by the Authority and will be logged into a comment tracking and resolution table. Updated drafts of technical memoranda with comments incorporated will be provided to the Authority after comment resolution, but the memoranda will not be finalized until submittal of the reports associated with Task 8.

Task 1 Deliverables - Deliverables for Task 1 include:

• Progress report, schedule update and invoice – monthly (up to 16); • Project Management Plan – PDF; • Project Kick-off Meeting agenda, materials, summary notes and decision log; • Monthly Progress Meeting agenda, materials, summary notes and decision log updates –

monthly (up to 15); • Authority Customer Staff Meeting presentation materials – as needed, up to 4; • Board Meeting presentation materials – as needed, up to 3.

Task 1 Schedule – Schedule for Task 1:

• This Task will run the duration of the Phase, starting with NTP, through completion of this Work Order. This Work Order is planned for 16-months.

• Project Kick-off Meeting to be scheduled within 1 month of NTP;


• Monthly Progress Meetings will begin a month after the kick-off meeting and will be scheduled as a reoccurring appointment each month with schedule adjustments as needed to accommodate availability of participants.

Key Assumptions - The following assumptions apply to Task 1 for this Scope of Services:

• The project schedule is anticipated to be no more than 16 months, which is the basis of the fee associated with this Work Order.

• The Project Kick-off Meeting will be held at the Peace River Facility and include a site visit to the Reserve, Reservoir #2 and #1, the associated Reservoir #1 Pump Station and the existing river pump station.

• Monthly Progress Meetings will be held both in-person and via teleconference. • The only meeting focused on deliverable-related comment resolution is associated with Task 8.

All other discussions on deliverable or work product comments from Authority staff or stakeholders will be held as part of Monthly Progress Meetings.

TASK 2 – DECISION SUPPORT FOR ALTERNATIVES EVALUATION

The primary objective of this Phase is to define the main PR3 Project features to support preliminary design in a future phase. Numerous decisions will be made during this Phase to allow for alternative development and evaluation. This Task will focus on key PR3 Project decisions and includes a structured decision making process so that decisions will be objective, transparent, and repeatable and will be evaluated using the Authority’s priorities and objectives. HDR will facilitate this decision making process using a multi-criteria decision analysis methodology (Analysis). The Analysis includes developing and weighting decision criteria and then evaluating how each alternative measures up to the established criteria. Once established, alternatives will undergo a technical evaluation and planning-level cost estimates for construction and operating cost will be developed for inclusion in the Analysis. The process will engage Authority staff and the HDR team in facilitated workshop sessions, and will result in a document that defines key PR3 Project decisions.

Task 2.1 Develop and Weigh Decision Criteria

In partnership with the Authority, the team will identify up to five (5) key decisions that need to be made at this stage of project development. HDR will facilitate a 2 day workshop (WS1) with Authority staff to confirm key decisions to be made and develop decision framework for each key decision. The decision framework includes identification of overarching objectives, decision criteria and criterion weights.

This scope assumes that workshop WS1 will include the development of up to ten (10) criteria for each of five (5) key decisions. Key decisions are anticipated to include the following, however these will be confirmed as part of WS1:

• Reservoir sizing and siting • Intake sizing and siting • Raw water pipeline routing and sizing • Peace River Facility interconnections and operations • Wetland and floodplain mitigation


The framework will be based on the Authority’s goals and on environmental or engineering constraints, or other yet-to-be-defined criteria. HDR will facilitate the criteria weighting process in WS1 so Authority staff can participate and contribute. HDR will facilitate the criteria weighting exercise, but will capture only Authority preferences in the weighting exercise. After developing the criteria, HDR will solicit individual input and use pairwise comparison tool to calculate the implied weights based on Authority input.

A technical memorandum (TM 2.1) will be prepared following the workshop to define criteria, criteria definitions, weights, and document the criteria development and weighting process and other key workshop discussions.

Following the submittal of TM2.1, the technical evaluation efforts defined in Tasks 3-7 will be conducted in order to include the results of evaluations in the next step of the decision making process.

Task 2.2 Score, Measure and Compare Alternatives

When the technical evaluations of Tasks 3-7 are substantially complete, the next step in the decision making process will be to develop a normalized scale for scoring decision alternatives against criteria, evaluate constraints of alternatives, understand the costs of the decision alternatives, and make an informed decision on which alternatives to select to advance during design.

For this decision-making process, HDR will facilitate a two-part workshop with the Authority to evaluate alternatives and then confirm decisions. The workshop will be conducted as a 1.5 day workshop (WS2a), followed by a virtual workshop up to 0.5 day in length (WS2b) several days later to confirm decisions. . This workshop will include:

• Review of key decisions to be made in this Phase of the PR3 Project and the criteria and weights to be used in the Analysis which were previously developed in WS1,

• Develop a normalized scale for each criteria, • Evaluate constraints or details of the alternatives that will need to be considered in decision

making, • Discuss planning-level costs associated with alternatives, • Conduct qualitative cost-benefit comparison analysis and scoring of alternatives, • Select alternatives to advance in preliminary design.

The discussions in the two-part workshop will rely on the evaluation work conducted as part of Tasks 3-7 of this scope of work, planning-level cost estimates for use in comparing options, and the decision-making criteria developed in WS1. The cost estimates to be used in WS2a and WS2b will be rough order of magnitude (preliminary, planning level) costs based on HDRs industry experience rather than detailed cost estimates based on quantities, quotes or other back-up information. A feasibility-level engineer’s opinion of costs will be developed as part of Task 8 for the selected Project feature alternatives.

At the conclusion of WS2a, the qualitative cost-benefit alternatives scoring will be summarized and the Authority will select the preferred alternative for each key decision in WS2b. A PR3 Key Decisions Technical Memorandum (TM 2.2) will be developed that documents the scoring scale for each criteria, scores for each alternative, and the logic/reasoning behind each score. TM 2.2 will also document


details, participants and data from the decision making process and planning-level costs used in the cost-benefit comparison.


• Agenda, workshop materials and workshop summaries - WS1,WS2a, WS2b; • TM 2.1 Decision Criteria and Weights Technical Memorandum – PDF; • TM 2.2 PR3 Key Decisions Document – PDF;

Task 2 Schedule - Schedule for Task 2:

• WS1 Decision Criteria and Weights Workshop – held within 1 month from Project Kickoff Meeting;

• TM 2.1 Decision Criteria and Weights Technical Memorandum – 3 weeks after workshop WS1; • WS2a and WS2b Scoring, Measuring and Comparison Workshop - to be scheduled as technical

work in Tasks 3-7 is substantially complete; • TM 2.2 PR3 Key Decisions Document – 3 weeks after WS2b.


• Workshops will be in-person and will be conducted at the Authority’s Peace River Facility. • WS1 will be conducted early in this Phase, WS2a and WS2b will be conducted toward the end of

this Phase. • Costs for cost-benefit comparison in WS2 will be based on HDRs industry experience rather than

detailed cost estimates based on quantities, quotes or other back-up information which will be provided as part of Task 8.

• Updated drafts of TM 2.1 and 2.2 incorporating Authority comments will be provided after one round of review comments and the comment resolution discussion held during the monthly progress meetings. The final version of these memoranda will be included with the Task 8 Feasibility and Siting Report.

TASK 3 - ENVIRONMENTAL AND PERMITTING

Environmental factors and permitting are critical in determining the feasibility, schedule and cost of the PR3 Project. The purpose of this task is to identify and understand environmental site constraints or opportunities, as well as regulatory expectations for design and construction of PR3 Project features. This task will include desktop reviews, field characterizations and data collection within the possible locations of PR3 Project features, as well as pre-application meetings with permitting agencies as defined in Subtask 3.4. These efforts will culminate in the development of an overall PR3 Project permitting plan.

Task 3.1 Environmental Data Collection

This subtask includes environmental desktop evaluations and field work associated with the potential locations for the reservoir and intake, as well as potential routes for the raw water pipeline. This effort includes confirmation of previous investigations for up to three (3) reservoir embankment locations on the Reserve, as well as preliminary screening of up to three (3) intake pump station locations along the Peace River, and up to three (3) raw water pipeline routes between the new intake and the PR3. A


discussion will be held during the 1st monthly progress meeting regarding the plan for field work and data collection, and to confirm the specific locations to be evaluated.

Wetland and wildlife field assessments, as well as habitat evaluations and mapping, will be conducted to confirm previously collected field data on the Reserve and to add information for other PR3 Project features that will be located outside of the Reserve property. This field analysis will document existing conditions (wetland quality, wildlife habitat/observations), but does not include formal species-specific threatened & endangered (T&E) species surveys which need to wait until project feature locations are selected. T&E effort during this Phase will include identification of potential species, critical habitat, and potential impacts to design, permitting and construction so that listed plants and wildlife are properly contemplated in siting of project features, and so that appropriate species-specific survey timelines (and survey costs) are included in PR3 Project planning. Formal T&E surveys will be performed under future scopes of work after locations are selected for PR3 Project features. Information and photos collected during field work will be incorporated into GIS maps to support siting decision making. This work will be summarized in a technical memorandum as part of subtask 3.5.

Task 3.2 Wetland and Floodplain Mitigation Evaluation

This subtask incorporates the field verified data of subtask 3.1 into the existing mitigation needs GIS model for the Reserve. This effort will also expand the GIS model to include the alternatives for the raw water pipeline routes and the intake pump station location. The team will develop options to address mitigation, including expanding on-site wetlands and identifying off-site opportunities. Off-site opportunities will include mitigation banks and the potential for regional partnerships to offset wetland impacts. This subtask will also include GIS and land-use desktop evaluations, as well as meetings (up to three) with potential mitigation partners. A technical memorandum (TM 3.2) will be produced to summarize the mitigation needs and identified mitigation opportunities to provide input to the decision support process of Task 2.

Task 3.3 Cultural Resources Review

This subtask will include a desktop review of historical aerials and standard data available through GIS to identify potential areas for further evaluation related to cultural resources for the reservoir site. A formal cultural resource assessment survey (CRAS) will be included in future PR3 Project phases and will include the intake site along the river and the raw water pipeline routes. The review will be documented in a technical memorandum (TM 3.3).

Task 3.4 Permitting Plan

This subtask will begin with a discussion with Authority staff during a monthly Progress Meeting to discuss the full range of anticipated permitting needs for the project based on potential site locations and infrastructure included in the PR3 Project. The team will review existing permit records and develop an approach for state, federal and county permitting based on Subtasks 3.1, 3.2 and 3.3. Pre-application meetings will be conducted with state and federal agencies to discuss the PR3 Project and to receive guidance from the agencies to inform the design approach, mitigation opportunities, additional field surveys required to support future permit applications. Pre-application meetings included in this subtask are: one (1) meeting with FDEP, one (1) with USACE, one (1) with USFWS, and one (1) with SWFWMD, and one (1) with the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC). A technical


memorandum (TM 3.4) will be produced to summarize the permitting approach and agency recommendations, outline a plan for future field surveys to be completed with seasonal timing considerations for T&E species, and capture the meeting summary notes from the pre-application meetings.

Task 3.5 Wetland Technical Evaluation and Wildlife Assessment Report

This subtask will compile data, document methods, analysis, and potential actions for “may affect” listed species and wetlands into a document that will include: proposed mitigation plan, conservation measures, and permitting approach to be used for federal agency coordination (NEPA compliance, per USACE guidelines) to facilitate future permitting. Although an EIS or EA is not expected, early planning and environmental review of federal actions (i.e. NEPA compliance) will occur through the federal permitting process. This document (TM 3.5) will summarize other Task 3 technical memoranda into a comprehensive document to establish the plan for wildlife coordination (e.g. Florida bonneted bat, Eastern indigo snake, gopher tortoise, crested caracara, wood stork) and wetland permitting efforts during the design phase of the PR3 Project.

TASK 4 - GEOTECHNICAL AND GEOLOGICAL EVALUATION

Similar to the existing Reservoir #2, Reservoir #3 will be an earthen-embankment above-ground impoundment. In order to successfully determine seepage effects and the appropriate seepage controls for the embankment, the site must be adequately characterized with respect to geology, hydrogeology, and geotechnical characteristics of the soils. It is anticipated the embankment will be constructed from on-site soils, so understanding the site foundation and potential borrow soils is important.

The purpose of this Task is to confirm the reservoir site is generally similar to the characteristics of the soils and foundation of the adjacent Reservoir #2 site and to define the site characterization efforts that will be undertaken in future PR3 Project phases. This Task will include a limited geotechnical exploration program, as well as a review of existing geological and hydrogeological data. A detailed site characterization will be conducted in future phases of the PR3 Project once decisions are made for the locations of the reservoir embankment, river intake pump station, and raw water pipeline.

Task 4.1 Review and Analysis of Existing Information

There is a significant amount of information available from the design and construction of Reservoir #2, which is adjacent to the general area proposed for Reservoir #3, which can be used to begin to develop the site stratigraphy for Reservoir #3. This subtask will include a review and organization of the existing site characterization data, including the geotechnical and site characterization reports from Reservoir #2, as well as the Reservoir #2 as-built documents which include information as to the depth of confining layer.

The data sources, information and reports will be reviewed to evaluate the technical merit and adequacy of the information relative to supporting future conclusions, recommendations, and decisions. HDR will review existing geologic and hydrogeologic information within the Project area, including:

• USGS Published Reports, • SWFWMD Reports, • Florida Geological Survey, • PRMRWSA Reports and Data, • Historical aerial photographs and maps, • Lithologic and construction information for wells, • Aquifer Test Data (slug tests), • Historical site-wide water-level data,


• Existing Models or Electronic Databases • Site characterization and construction documents from Reservoir #2

A technical memorandum (TM 4.1) will be prepared summarizing the existing site information.

Task 4.2 Geotechnical Exploration and Evaluation

A limited geotechnical investigation will be conducted on the Reserve for Reservoir #3 as part of this Phase. The location for the new river intake structure and the raw water pipeline will not be finalized until this Phase is completed so there will not be any geotechical explorations for these two features during this Phase.

The proposed geotechnical work plan includes soil borings, test pits, and surficial aquifer piezometers to obtain preliminary data on potential borrow, depth to the clay confining unit, and water table information, as described below.

• Borings: The boring includes standard penetration test (SPT) borings located on the southern portion of the Reserve including:

• Two (2) 60-foot SPTs for the depth to clay layer, lithology, and lab samples; borings will be drilled to the top of the clay or 60 feet bls, whichever is greater. Piezometers will be installed at these two locations;

• Four (4) 20-foot SPTs for lithology, lab samples. During drilling, soil samples will be classified in the field. SPTs will be recorded on 2-foot centers in the upper 10 feet and 5-foot centers below 10 feet. The depth to the water table will be recorded at each boring. One thin-walled soil sample will be obtained in the upper 10 feet of each boring for laboratory testing.

• Auger Borings: Three locations will be explored on the Reserve by auger borings. At the three (3) locations designated up to four (4) borings to 10 feet in depth will be performed and spaced approximately 5 to 10 feet apart in approximate square area. Of the four (4) borings at each of the three locations, two (2) will be SPT borings, with continuous sampling, and one (1) to two (2) will be Power Auger borings. The auger flights will advance 3 to 5-ft at a time, with a rate of rotation which shall match the penetration rate so that the soil on the auger flight will correspond to the associated depth. Then, the augers will be vertically lifted up without rotating to preserve the soil column, and to obtain bulk samples for laboratory analysis. Soil columns on the flight will be documented with digital photography and will be visually inspected for approximate groundwater level. Auger borings will be backfilled after sampling and data collection is complete.

• Lab Testing: Samples from the SPT borings as well as some bulk samples taken from test pits will be subjected to a series of laboratory classification tests as well as limited strength, permeability and compaction tests. Lab testing is anticipated to include:

Test Borings Test Pit Total Number Proposed Visual Classification 6 3 Classified during drilling Grain Size 6 3 9 Compaction Testing 3 3


Test Borings Test Pit Total Number Proposed Shear Strength 3 3 Permeability 3 3

Soil samples will be obtained by the geotechnical subconsultant in the field from each soil boring. The samples will be classified by the geotechnical subconsultant and soil boring logs will be submitted to HDR.

• Piezometers: In the two 60-foot SPT borings, two (2) piezometers will be installed to monitor the water level over time at the site. Each piezometer will consist of 2-inch diameter, threaded PVC casing and 5 feet of PVC slotted screen. The depth of the wells will be contingent upon the depth to the water table, with the screen placed approximately one foot below the water table. Each of the piezometers will be developed to remove fines. Water level recorders (transducers) will be installed by HDR’s geotechnical subconsultant in the piezometers to measure the water levels following piezometer installation. The transducers will be set to collect data at one-hour intervals. The Authority will download this data monthly from the data loggers and provide the data to HDR.

At the conclusion of the geotechnical investigation a technical memorandum (TM 4.2) will be developed that summarizes findings and provides recommendations for the exploration plan for the site characterization efforts for future phases of the PR3 Project for the reservoir, intake and pipeline.

Task 4.3 Geology and Hydrogeology Evaluation

HDR will review existing geologic and hydrogeologic data from sources discussed in Subtask 4.1. The data will be used to develop a preliminary geologic/hydrogeologic characterization of the Reserve site that will determine data gaps and help to develop recommendations for the future site characterization efforts for the Reserve, the river intake and the pipeline route in subsequent phases of the PR3 Project. The hydrogeological evaluation of the site will include delineation of confining and permeable intervals within the surficial and intermediate aquifer systems. Bathymetry data for the proposed intake locations along the river will be provided to HDR by the Authority for evaluation.

Although not anticipated to be an area of high sinkhole activity, the potential for sinkhole development at the Reserve potential reservoir footprints will be evaluated as part of the initial analysis through a desktop analysis of existing data. HDR will update previous related work on the site with a review of Florida Geological Survey (FGS) and SWFWMD sinkhole databases data, sinkhole risk maps, high resolution aerials, and water levels in the aquifers beneath the Reserve. Identified karst features on or near the Reserve suggest that conduiting exists in areas of the Hawthorn Group that could result in sinkhole activity if the clay-rich confining stratum is breached. HDR will acquire available high resolution aerials and lidar to identify potential areas of concern such as circular depressions and photo lineaments that may indicate sinkhole development. Another critical factor in sinkhole risk is the presence of a downward hydraulic gradient between aquifer units, which will be evaluated based on existing data and confirmed with piezometers during the site characterization phase of the project. Part of the initial evaluation (based on existing data) will focus on a comparison of water levels in the upper Hawthorn Group with stage of the Peace River at the Reserve site to determine the relationship between potentials in the aquifer system and recharge/discharge from the river, which could affect the vertical gradients. The analysis will identify


features of concern and will rank the features based on the level of confidence in the indicators. The results of the analysis will form the basis for recommendations of future investigation of features by geophysical techniques such as ground penetrating radar (GPR), seismic reflection, and exploratory borings. It is likely that GPR will be recommended along the proposed embankment alignment as part of the site characterization.

Another objective of the exploration plan is to obtain data for the development of a groundwater model in a future phase of the PR3 Project. Prior to development of a site groundwater model, HDR will develop a conceptual model of the site groundwater flow conditions through interpretation of existing and future conditions. In this Phase, the goals and objectives of the future modeling effort will be defined, data gaps will be identified, and the suitability of modeling tools will be evaluated. A modeling approach will be developed that will include modeling scenarios, recommended software, model input requirements and calibration, and simulation horizons. Objectives to consider include the interaction of the reservoir(s) with the underlying hydrostatigraphic units, potential water losses through seepage, and impacts to adjacent wetlands. Other considerations such as sea level rise could be evaluated in the model. The model will incorporate Authority-provided operational data from the Peace River Facility including water levels in Reservoir #2 and #1 as well as pumping into or out of the ASR system and rainfall.

The geologic/hydrogeologic summary and recommendations for future data collection will be included as part of TM 4.2. Additional data recommendations could include borings, monitoring wells, geophysical methods, aquifer testing and water quality sampling. The TM will also recommend a modeling approach to be implemented during the design phase of PR3.

Task 4.4 Geotechnical Design Considerations

Future design phases of the PR3 Project will include detailed modeling to evaluate seepage and site hydrology to design the embankment and seepage control system for the reservoir. There are multiple solutions for seepage mitigation and control in earthen embankments including geomembranes and cutoff walls, similar to the Reservoir #2 embankment, as well alternative materials and construction methods to minimize seepage losses. Embankment design also includes drainage systems to collect and discharge seepage water, for which there are multiple design options.

This subtask will consider up to three (3) alternative seepage mitigation and seepage drainage system concepts for Reservoir #3 looking at the technical merits, construction considerations, operational and maintenance needs, and planning level costs for comparison. This evaluation will not include seepage modeling in SEEP/W to compare the effectiveness of the alternative; this will be included in future phases of work.

A technical memorandum (TM 4.4) will be developed summarizing the alternative for reservoir seepage mitigation and control, will present recommendations for concepts to advance to preliminary design and will include planning-level costs for comparison. Concepts recommended for advancement will be based on site knowledge and industry experience for constructability of similar projects. An embankment cross-section with seepage control and drainage will not be finalized in this Phase, viable alternatives will be advanced for design analysis and evaluation. TM 4.4 will include a proposed approach for modeling embankment seepage and stability and other reservoir design considerations to be advanced such as erosion control and instrumentation for dam safety monitoring. Additionally, TM


4.4 will include a discussion of geotechnical and bathymetric considerations for the design of the intake and pipeline project features.

The final version of these memoranda will be included with the Task 8 Feasibility and Siting Report.

TASK 5 - HYDRAULICS, WATER QUALITY AND OPERATIONAL CONSIDERATIONS

The PR3 Project will provide an additional withdrawal capacity from the river to maximize the Authority’s WUP. There are multiple options for connecting the new intake pump station and new reservoir to the Authority’s existing reservoirs, pipelines, pump stations and remaining system. This task


will evaluate technical considerations for options for the connections, as well as identify water quality considerations for both the intake and the reservoir to support the decision making in Task 2.

Task 5.1 Water Supply and Quality Reliability Modeling

This subtask will begin with a workshop (WS3) and coordination exercise with Authority staff on the SUMDAT model, which is the Authority’s model for reliability and yield decisions for the Peace River Facility. This workshop will review modeling objectives, protocols and assumptions.

Prior to WS3, Authority staff will provide HDR with a copy of the SUMDAT model and any available associated references that describes its overall organization, data inputs, assumptions, relationships and/or constraints. Following WS3, HDR will prepare a consolidated information request for the Authority including clarifications, confirmations of original data sources and other points of discussion.

The SUMDAT model will be utilized by HDR, with support of the Authority, to evaluate system reliability for up to three (3) intake locations. Anticipated location options include: expansion at the existing river pump station, a location approximately one river mile upstream of the existing intake, and a location approximately two river miles upstream of the existing intake. Locations to be evaluated in this Phase will be confirmed during WS3.

Anticipated river flows and total dissolved solids (TDS) concentrations at each potential intake site will be determined using available historical data, and then used as an input in reliability modeling to determine the extent to which variability across the three sites impacts reliability. Historical flow, TDS and conductivity data collected at the United States Geological Survey (USGS) and Hydrobiological Monitoring Program (HBMP) sites along the river and associated tributaries will be collected and combined into on dataset.

HDR will use these data to develop simple linear regression models of flow and TDS for incorporation into the SUMDAT reliability model to support intake siting under current and long-term sea level rise scenarios. If the regression model correlation coefficients are not sufficiently strong to support quantitative analysis of sea level rise impacts across potential intake locations, HDR will work with the Authority to develop reasonable, qualitative model input scenarios based on historical data and trends.

HDR will develop model scenarios that capture quantity and quality reliability as a function of: intake location, capacity and phasing; reservoir size; sea level rise; historical hydrology data; assumed TDS threshold.

HDR will provide the Authority with SUMDAT model inputs and/or modifications to be incorporated into SUMDAT. Information provided by HDR will include:

• Intake size options, • Reservoir size options, • Streamflow time series (e.g. historical time series with and without sea level rise assumptions;

assumed time series at each intake location) • TDS model and related time series (e.g. water level), • Operating rules, • Other scenario parameters of interest.


SUMDAT modifications and model runs will be conducted by the Authority; updates and results will be reviewed by HDR and the Authority. Each modeled scenario will be provided to HDR as a separate SUMDAT file. Reliability modeling results will be reviewed by HDR and the Authority during a monthly progress meeting. Results will be synthesized and compared to show the relative reliability impacts of each decision.

Efforts and results associated with this subtask will be summarized and presented in a technical memorandum (TM 5.1). This intake siting considerations TM will include planning-level costs for inclusion in the siting and sizing decisions of Task 2.

5.2 System Hydraulics Evaluation

The expansion of the Peace River Facility system provides an opportunity to evaluate future operational flexibility of the river intake pump stations, reservoirs, and conveyance back to the water treatment plant. This subtask will start with a workshop (WS4) with Authority staff to fully understand details of the current system functionality and to identify requirements and preferences for operational flexibility with the new system. This workshop will brainstorm a range of pipeline, pump, valve, water control structures and system configurations to be further vetted and evaluated.

At the conclusion of WS4, the Authority will select up to three (3) system configuration options for HDR to evaluate for technical feasibility, hydraulic grade line to the head of the plant, construction considerations, O&M concerns, potential impacts from climate change and sea level rise, as well as other criteria defined as part of the decision process. This evaluation will also include up to three (3) options for routing and size configuration of the raw water pipeline from the new intake to the reservoir system. Planning level costs will be developed for options to be utilized, along with the technical evaluation, as part of the decision process in Task 2.

This system hydraulics evaluation will also look at the size and configuration of the new reservoir, balancing the short and long-term yield available from the river, the Authority’s storage capacity and reliability goals and the capital cost of the new reservoir.

A technical memorandum (TM 5.2) will be prepared summarizing and presenting this hydraulics evaluation and planning-level cost information for use in decision making as part of Task 2.

5.3 Water Quality Considerations for Reservoir Management

The new reservoir will provide the Authority with a significant increase in stored water to improve water supply reliability. This increase in stored water volume highlights the importance of understanding potential water quality issues and solutions prior to starting the design phase. This subtask will start with a discussion during a Monthly Progress Meeting to understand water quality issues experienced in the existing reservoirs. If warranted, HDR will also hold discussions with operational staff to determine any historically observed challenges related to water quality in the reservoir system, as well as concerns related to potential future water quality challenges. Current prevention practices, monitoring and response plans will be discussed such as those focused on algae bloom management.

Following the discussions, HDR will perform a review of potential water quality-related design options to be included in the PR3 design phase. The design options may include different aeration/mixing strategies, inlet/outlet location, pretreatment capabilities and others. Each design option will be


evaluated in terms of its intent, applicability to the Authority, cost implications, and operational complexity. Relevant experiences with reservoir water quality design options will be collected from up to three similar utilities with similar water quality. Planning-level cost estimates of up to three options for reservoir water quality management will be included in this effort.

This work will be captured in a technical memorandum (TM 5.3) to document current and potential future water quality challenges and potential design options for addressing those challenges for inclusion in decision making as part of Task 2.

TASK 6 - LAND USE, ACQUISITION AND RIGHTS OF WAY

While the land for the reservoir is defined to be within the Reserve, other PR3 Project features including the river intake, raw water pipeline(s) and wetland/floodplain mitigation needs may require property acquisitions, easements or other agreements. The purpose of this task is to define land ownership for the river intake location and pipeline route alternatives to inform decisions made as part of Task 2.

Additionally, this task will support the mitigation evaluation efforts in Task 3 to understand land ownership for potential mitigation sites as part the exploration of regional partnerships and will include the review of existing conservation easements on the Reserve.


Property ownership, acquisition and easement considerations and other real estate drivers that may impact the Project schedule and cost will be summarized in a technical memorandum (TM 6).

TASK 7 – CONSTRUCTION, SITE ACCESS AND SEQUENCING

Another important aspect of the PR3 Project to be evaluated is related to the construction phase. Understanding how major project features will be built by construction contractors and identifying the potential risks the contractor will price into their bid will allow the Authority and HDR team to make thoughtful PR3 Project decisions.

This Task will evaluate construction risks and potential issues associated with the various Project alternatives considered in Tasks 2-6 including potential constraints related to constructability, management of surface water and construction dewatering, as well as site access and potential permitting constraints. Additionally, recommendations related to construction sequencing and construction contract packaging will be developed. This evaluation will be presented in a technical memorandum (TM7) and will be included in decision making as part of Task 2.
