Scope of Services: Services will consist of an evaluation reviewing the proposed relocation of the regional sewage lift station defined in the 2014 CSP near Shoreline Drive to the southwest corner of the Rocky Hills property. This includes re -confirming the contributing basin to the sewage lift station to determine if a larger area beyond the Rocky Hills property can still be served. The potential impacts to the City based on the relocation of the sewage lift station associated with reduction in gravity contributing basin and need for any additional lift stations will be identified. The anticipated first phase of this task order is the review of the developer's route analysis to assess proof of concept and to determine if there are any impacts to the proposed gravity collection concepts for the lift station from the 2014 CSP for serving the Northwest Service Area. Initial review comments for the proof of concept for the proposed sewage lift station relocation will be provided via email. These comments along with a summary of the impacts to the City based on the relocation of the regional sewer lift station will be incorporated into a three-page technical memorandum and provided in an electronic format. Assumptions: • The scope and budget are limited to the proposed developer concept for the Rocky Hills property connection to the proposed sewer trunk extension. • The evaluation does not include further analysis of on impacts to the West Pasco Trunk, which were previously defined in the 2016 On -Call Municipal Engineering Services Task Order No. 4 and 5. • This evaluation only includes review of the proposed sizing of a sewage lift station and force main, proposed by the developer to ensure that it is expandable to meet future needs. • This evaluation does not include reviewing alternative alignment or performing cost comparisons. • Services will only be performed based on the approval of the City Engineer. • One (1) meeting is planned with City and developer to review results of the evaluation.
