Scope of Work
City of Pasco
Water System Plan Amendment
March 2024
Background
This Scope of Work includes tasks to prepare an early action (Phase 1) amendment to update the
City of Pasco (City) Water System Plan (WSP) and evaluate the ability of the water system to meet
the needs of existing and projected future water system customers throughout the 20-year planning
period. Based on the current planning requirements of Washin gton Administrative Code (WAC)
Chapter 246-290, the City WSP must be updated every 10 years with the current plan expiring on
March 21, 2027. WAC 246-290-100 (11) indicates that an amendment may be submitted to the
Washington State Department of Health (DOH) for approval at any time, but an amendment does
not alter the approval period and a complete update will be required by the expiration date. Phase
2 is a future phase that will incorporate additional years of data and projections together with the
Regional Water Forecast and Conservation Plan (RWFCP) needed for a full 10-year plan approval near
the time when the current plan expires.
The Quad-City Water Right (QCWR) was developed with the expectation that all four Cities, (Pasco,
Kennewick, Richland, and West Richland) would coordinate their plans from a scheduling perspective
with the RWFCP. The Cities share the QCWR issued under Surface Water Permit No. S4 -30976P on
September 15, 2003. The RWFCP is scheduled to be updated in 2026 in advance of the WSP required
updates.
The supplemental tasks to perform a more detailed evaluation of the existing water system will
support the development of an accurate and cost-effective Capital Improvement Program (CIP) for
the WSP together with analyzing which water rights should be dedicated to the potable versus
non-potable irrigation systems.
RH2 will perform the services described up to the amounts included in the attached Fee Estimate. If
additional effort is needed, that extra work will be mutually determined by the City and RH2. RH2 will
not need to provide hard copies of deliverables to the City and documents will be provided in
electronic format (PDF).
Phase 1 – WSP Amendment
Task 1 – Project Management, Data Collection, and DOH Coordination
Objective: Manage the RH2 project team, files, and records. Monitor the Scope of Work and budget
and provide monthly invoices. Assist the City in collecting data for the water system planning process.

completeness of existing information, data, and materials provided by the City and others in
relation to this Scope of Work.
• Weekly meetings with City project manager will be virtual, may vary in length and may be
skipped some weeks if no exchange of information is needed.
RH2 Deliverables:

filed. RH2 team coordination.
• Attendance at one (1) meeting with the City and DOH staff, and coordination via telephone
and email with DOH. Attendance at one (1) meeting with the City staff to review collected
data.
Task 2 – Land Use and Population
Objective: Review planning-related documents and identify impacts on the City’s water system for
use in the WSP.
Approach:
Prepare and review an inventory of related plans to provide a summary of the impacts or
constraints on the water system, including the 2018-2038 City of Pasco Comprehensive Plan and
the 2021 Franklin County Comprehensive Plan and review how the Growth Management Act
(GMA) impacts the City.
Complete DOH’s Consistency Statement Checklist for each planning agency with which the WSP
must be consistent, including local and Franklin County (County) planning jurisdictions.
Identify existing and future land use patterns in and adjacent to the City and their impacts on
existing and future facilities and water sources for the water system.

the City.
Update elevation data in the model by transferring data from electronic contours to model
junction nodes using customized routines.
Compute pipe roughness coefficients from available pipe material and age data using routines
to accomplish initial calibration.
Allocate the existing (2023) demand data among the nodes in the model using a
parcel-consumption database provided by the City and customized routines.
Calculate the existing and 9-year average (2015 to 2023) diurnal curves for the average day and
peak 3-day period using hourly tank and well data. Input diurnal curves into the hydraulic water

Update facility data into the model for supply sources, reservoirs, and pressure reducing valve
(PRV) stations. Establish facility settings to reflect current settings and those to be used for the
analyses.
Perform preliminary hydraulic analyses to identify locations for field pressure and hydrant flow
tests and check potential performance at each site. Prepare a template that lists field test
locations and data that needs to be collected at each test location. Coordinate with the City to
confirm methods and recordkeeping for field tests.
Attend the hydrant flow tests to confirm that the pressure and flow test objectives are met for
the purpose of calibrating the hydraulic model. City staff will operate hydrants, valves, and
other water system facilities as directed by RH2. RH2 will provide calibrated pitot and pressure
gauges for use during the hydrant flow tests and will record the results of the tests. Operational
status of facilities will be provided by City staff (in real-time or from the City’s telemetry system
following field testing), including flows into the system from supply sources and reservoir levels
at the start and end of the tests.
Perform hydraulic analyses to calibrate the model from the field flow and pressure test data
for the purposes of steady state hydraulic analyses.
Coordinate with the City to identify sources of inconsistencies between the field calibration
data and the modeled results. Inconsistencies may be the result of unknown closed valves in
the system or incorrect diameter of water main shown on system mapping or as-builts. Since
this item is highly variable in nature, an initial allocation of twenty -four (24) hours of a water
modeling specialist’s time has been included for this subtask. If generally accepted industry
standards for hydraulic model accuracy cannot be achieved withi n this initial allocation, RH2
will coordinate with the City to determine the next steps. This may include a contract
amendment to assist the City in performing additional field flow tests and model calibration
analyses.

requirements of each pressure zone and the non-potable irrigation system.
Coordinate with the City to obtain estimated costs for producing water from each of the
City-owned sources. Compare costs of producing water to purch asing water from Franklin
County Irrigation District and South Columbia Basin Irrigation District, acquiring and updating
508-14 wells serving the expanded Urban Growth Area, or developing aquifer storage and
recovery wells.
Perform water balance simulations and steady-state analyses in the hydraulic models to
recommend an operational strategy for the water system on a seasonal basis. Identify
improvements to implement the recommended operational strategy. The analyses will consider
the following elements:
• Increase supply produced from sources owned by the City.
• Capital and O&M costs.
• Water rights limitations for each individual source.
Meet with City staff to discuss the results of the analyses and review the feasibility of the
proposed operational strategy.
Revise the operational strategy per review comments from the City. Since this item is highly
variable in nature, an initial allocation of forty (40) hours of a water modeling specialist’s time
has been included for this subtask. If an acceptable operational strategy cannot be determined
within this initial allocation, RH2 will coordinate with the City to determine the next steps, which
may include a contract amendment.
