SCOPE OF WORK
WWTP Improvements, Phase 2
CITY OF PASCO, WA
Background
EXHIBIT B
The City of Pasco, Washington (City) has been one of the fastest growing cities in the State of
Washington and the nation over the last several years. To plan for the impacts of this growth on
the City's municipal wastewater treatment plant (WWTP) and ensure it has adequate treatment
capacity for the foreseeable future, a Facility Plan was recently completed. This report identified
existing and projected future WWTP deficiencies through the year 2040 and developed a plan to
address them. The Facility Plan was approved by the Washington State Department of Ecology
(Ecology) in August of 2019.
In late August of 2019, the City solicited Statements of Qualifications from consulting engineering
firms for the design of the first two phases of work identified in the Facility Plan listed below.
• Facility Plan Project 113 - Secondary Treatment
• Facility Plan Project 1C - Outfall (Project No. 1)
• Facility Plan Project 1D - Mechanical Dewatering
• Facility Plan Project 1E - Mechanical Waste Activated Sludge (WAS) Thickening
• Facility Plan Project 2A - Secondary Treatment (Project No. 2)
• Facility Plan Project 213 - Outfall (Project No. 2)
• Facility Plan Project 2C - UV Expansion Project
In early September 2019, the City received responses from five firms, three of which were
subsequently interviewed on October 17th. Murraysmith (Consultant) was notified they were
selected to perform this work on October 25th
During the process of developing the first phase scope of work, these projects were reorganized
into the following two phases to better address the short-term capacity needs of the WWTP,
improve the efficiency of design execution, and better accommodate the loan funding application
schedule associated with the first phase of work.

1.3 Kick -Off Meeting
A kick-off meeting will be held at the WWTP to review the project, introduce new team members
to the facility and the City, establish project goals and objectives, review communication protocols,
and discuss the project scope and schedule. A tour of the WWTP site will be conducted following
the kickoff meeting to show the new team members the facility and start specific discussions on
critical elements that need to be resolved before the development of the contract documents
begin in Task 5.
1.4 City and Design Team Coordination
As project manager, Mark Cummings will lead and oversee project communications with the City
and design team throughout the duration of the project, lead design team meetings and
coordination, keep the City up-to-date on project issues and details and make sure the City's input
is incorporated into the work product.
As principal in charge, Craig Anderson will work with Mark to ensure that this Scope of Work is
completed. He will also act as secondary point of contact to ensure secondary points of contact
and responsibility due to the scale of the project.
Deliverables:
1. Monthly invoice and progress report (PDF electronic format)
2. Kick -Off Meeting Notes/Action Item Summary (PDF electronic format)
Assumptions:
1. Project duration is anticipated to be no more than 24 months; therefore, it is assumed that
there will be up to 24 progress payments/status reports.
2. Meeting and workshop facilitation will be limited to those specifically identified in this
scope of work.
3. The City will provide clear, consolidated and timely input and review of the work products
produced by the Consultant.
4. The development of a detailed alternative decision process (e.g. — pairwise comparison,
business case evaluation, etc.) will not be required to aid the City in making project
decisions.
Task 2 — Project Definition
The WWTP improvements that will be designed under this scope of work are based on the Facility
Plan recommendations but require further refinement, analysis, and information to support the
design process. The intent of this task is to further refine the proposed improvements by gathering
and reviewing additional facility information and big picture treatment process options and
preferences. The work in this design step focuses on ensuring the facility and process details have
been refined, discussed, and agreed to before more detailed design proceeds.

Activities:
2.1 Facility Data Collection & Analysis
Detailed existing facility information will be gathered and processed for future use in the
development of the detailed facility design. This information will be reviewed for potential impacts
to the Facility Plan improvement concepts. Work will include:
• Site Survey Update — the field topographic and boundary survey completed during the
Phase 1 Project will be updated and used to develop a base map for use in the Phase 2
design. Survey will capture open space topography, above ground evidence of all existing
underground utilities/pipe/conduit, power poles, light poles, fences, walls, noteworthy site
features, significant vegetation, hardscape features (curb, pavement, sidewalk, etc.),
buildings, key hydraulic features on various unit processes, and location and approximate
depth of utilities/pipe/conduit using ground penetrating radar and electromagnetic line
locating devices.
• Geotechnical Investigations Update — geotechnical field investigations and testing was
completed during Phase 1 Project. This information will be updated to produce a
Geotechnical Engineering Report, Geotechnical Baseline Report and Geotechnical Data
Report for Phase 2.
• Existing E & IC system review and analysis — an on-site review of the existing WWTP's
electrical and instrumentation systems, including an arc -flash hazard analysis and
modeling, will be performed for the purposes of verifying the accuracy of existing system
relative to record drawings and quantifying system operational improvement needs
associated with the proposed work.
• Existing Facility Structural and Architectural review — desktop and field review and
evaluations of existing structural and architectural facilities that will be modified as part of
the project.
• WWTP Operation and Automation Preferences — City WWTP staff will be interviewed to
understand and document general facility operation and automation preferences that will
be used to guide the design on the proposed improvements.
• Preliminary Building Official Coordination and Code Review — Consultant will initiate
discussions with the local Building Official and their representatives to discuss and
document the codes, design criteria, and process required for the design and construction
of the proposed facilities. Topics will include items such as applicable codes
(building/plumbing/electrical/fire) and requirements, special inspection requirements for
non -facility improvements, NFPA 820 considerations, and design and construction review
and approval process.
2.2 Process Data Collection & Analysis
The Facility Plan relied on general system information and historical treatment process data
routinely collected by the City for the evaluation and selection of improvement alternatives. More

detailed unit process system performance analysis and wastewater characterization is needed to
properly size and configure the WWTP improvements. This work includes:
• Supplemental WWTP Process Characterization —existing wastewater, WWTP process data,
and Phase 1 supplemental influent wastewater characterization data will be reviewed to
develop a plan for the collection and testing of additional plant data that is needed for
biological and general process modelling and design of the proposed upgrades. Additional
data needs may include items such as UV transmittance, thickened waste activated sludge
(TWAS) pumping characteristics, and digested sludge filtrate characteristics. Collected
information will be analyzed and used for the development of the necessary model inputs
or design criteria.
• WWTP Process Model Refinement and Update—The process modelling performed as part
of Phase 1 will be updated for the Phase 2 improvements and calibrated further using the
supplemental WWTP process characterization data collected.
• WWTP Hydraulic Models Refinement and Update—The hydraulic model performed as part
of the Phase 1 will be updated to account for the Phase 2 improvements. Collected TWAS
rheology information will be used to align TWAS pumping design model assumptions.
2.3 Major Equipment/Product Refinement
There are numerous equipment options available for performing key treatment functions, several
with unique characteristics (e.g. — purchase cost, energy efficiency, operational ease, mechanical
configuration, noise levels, space requirements, etc.).
The design team will use their collective past project experience as well as solicited input from
various equipment suppliers to generate a list of the major equipment and product options and
their relative differences for review with City staff.
It is anticipated that selection of the preferred equipment/product options can be addressed
during the normal course of the Task 2 and Task 3 work items. However, it is anticipated that some
items will require a more thorough review as provided in Task 8.
2.4 Unit Process Configuration Refinement
Similar to equipment and product options, there are multiple unit process sizing and configuration
options available that impact the design of the proposed improvements. The design team will use
their collective past project experience, the results of the subtask 2.1 and 2.2 work, additional unit
process concept development efforts, and discussions with City staff to identify the most feasible
process configuration options available for the WWTP. Consultant will identify and quantify the
relative differences between these options for City review, input, and selection. The following
processes are anticipated for examination and refinement:
• WAS Thickening —considerations of technologies and design
• Biosolids Dewatering — considerations of technologies and design
• Biosolids Handling — current and future considerations for use of drying beds,
cake/biosolids use, onsite storage, transport

Activities:
8.1 Energy Efficiency Incentive Coordination & Application
Energy efficiency incentive payments are available from the Bonneville Power Administration
(BPA) which are applied for and coordinated with the Franklin Public Utility District (FPUD).
Depending on the equipment and processes selected by the City as part of the proposed
improvements, there is a strong likelihood that energy efficiency incentive payments can be
received. This subtask is an allowance for the Consultant to work with BPA and local power
company on the City's behalf to apply and receive energy efficiency incentive approval.
Deliverables:
1. Energy incentive draft and final memorandum in pdf format.
Assumptions:
1. This work is only for approval for application and general quantification of savings for an
energy incentive payment to the City. Energy savings validation will not be completed until
after construction is complete.
2. Incentive eligibility will be determined by BPA and FPUD representatives within one month
of Consultant's final energy incentive memorandum.
8.2 WWTP Equipment Review and Site Visits
This subtask is to aid equipment selection. The proposed improvements can employ numerous
different types and configurations of traditional and emerging treatment equipment with varying
levels of treatment performance, up -front equipment costs, operational costs, and maintenance
needs. While the selection of most of the equipment needed is anticipated not to require more
than a desktop analysis by the consultant, this subtask includes specialized investigations into
some of these technologies to help determine the equipment that is best suited to meet there
needs. Equipment that may warrant a higher level of investigation include WAS Thickening, Sludge
Dewatering and UV Disinfection. To aid equipment selection, this subtask includes options for
Consultant and City Staff to perform remote vendor presentations, virtual tours, interviews and
discussions with operators from other municipalities, visiting active WWTPs. These activities will
involve seeing the equipment options in operation and talking to the operators that use them on
a daily basis to solicit their input on performance and ease of use versus that claimed bythe various
equipment manufacturers. No work on this subtask will be performed without the advance
approval of the City.

Department of Ecology 401 Water Quality Certification
Work below the ordinary high water (OHW) level of the Columbia River will trigger the need for
Section 10 (Rivers and Harbors Act) and Section 404 (Clean Water Act) permit coverage from the
U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE). The issuance of a federal (USACE) permit will also trigger
the need for 401 Water Quality Certification coverage from the Washington Department of
Ecology (Ecology).
Prepare a Joint Aquatic Resources Permit Application (DARPA) to facilitate USACE review of the
project for a Section 10 (Rivers and Harbors Act) and Section 404 (Clean Water Act) Permit and
Ecology review for a Section 401 Water Quality Certification. The application package will include
a completed standard JARPA form and permit figures that address USACE and Ecology submittal
requirements for content and format. The application will describe the project's purpose/need
and major elements, proposed construction approach, alternative considered, anticipated
unavoidable impacts, proposed impact avoidance and minimization measures, and proposed
mitigation, if required.
Prepare the permit narrative and site orientation graphics (e.g., aerial photograph, USGS topo
map) and assemble the package.
Coordinate with the USACE and Ecology during the review process to obtain agency feedback on
a proposed design and construction approach, confirm timing/other restrictions for construction,

discuss mitigation requirements, and answer agency questions, respond to comments, and track
review status.
Deliverables:
1. Draft and Final Joint Aquatic Resources Permit Application (DARPA)
Ass um ptions/Exclusions:
1. The project will be authorized under a USACE Nationwide Permit (e.g., #58 for Utility Line
Activities and/or #7 for Outfall Structures). It is assumed that an Individual Permit from
USACE will not be needed.
2. Mitigation requirements for permanent waterway impacts of a new outfall pipe will be
verified with USACE, and a mitigation approach will be described in the application. This
scope of work does not include design services for mitigation.
3. Consultant assumes that existing information on Columbia River sediments and water
quality in the project vicinity will be sufficient for USACE Section 10/404 and Ecology 401
permitting purposes. This scope does not include field collection and/or laboratory analysis
of Columbia River sediment or water quality samples.
4. A single consolidated set of comments will be provided on draft submittals.
5. City will sign the JARPA as applicant.
Task 8.5C Biological Assessment
The Columbia River is used by, and is designated Critical Habitat for, populations of
salmon/steelhead and bull trout listed as Threatened or Endangered under the federal
Endangered Species Act. The Columbia River is also Essential Fish Habitat (EFH) for Pacific salmon
protected under the Magnuson -Stevens Fisheries Conservation and Management Act (MSA).
Because the project likely will be unable to avoid impacts to listed species and habitat entirely,
particularly during in -water construction activities, a Section 7 consultation with the National
Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) and U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service (USFWS) will be required in order
to receive federal permits for the project. A Biological Assessment (BA) will need to be prepared
to help facilitate the consultation with Services. Consultant expects that the USACE would be the
federal lead agency initiating the consultation with the Services through the Section 10/404
permitting process.
Prepare a BA that will be included in the JARPA submittal to the USACE. The USACE will submit the
BA to the Services (NMFS and USFWS). The BA will document our evaluation of the project's
potential to impact listed species and habitat protected under the federal Endangered Species Act
and Magnuson -Stevens Fishery Conservation and Management Act. Consultant will use agency -
accepted methods for assessing potential project impacts and agency guidance/templates for
formatting the BA, which will include the following elements:

Task 8.5D Cultural Resources Assessment
Federal and state regulations require that the project consider impacts to archaeological
resources. This will involve coordination with Washington State Department of Archaeology and
Historic Preservation (DAHP), and affected Tribes. Tribal information request letters will be sent
once notice to proceed is received.
Conduct background research that includes reviewing reports on previously conducted
archaeological investigations, historic maps and aerials, LiDAR, geological maps, geotechnical data,
and current land surveyor maps to identify recorded cultural resources and assess the potential
for unknown cultural resources within the Project Area.
Conduct field work that consists surface and subsurface survey of the Project Area to assess the
landform and evaluate the potential for buried resources. Subsurface survey is anticipated to
require up to 8 shovel and auger probes. Probes will be spaced at a 20 meter (66 foot) interval
along the approximately 60 -meter (200 foot) -long 20 meter (66 foot) wide terrestrial portion of
