SUBJECT: I-182 and Broadmoor Boulevard Interchange Project DRAFT Project #21x06-725
Scope of Work
SCOPE OF WORK
The City of Pasco expects to experience significant growth in the currently undeveloped northwest
portion of the City known as the "Broadmoor Area". Broadmoor Boulevard is the primary arterial
connection between the regional freeway system (I-182) and this new growth area (located west of
Broadmoor Boulevard). The City of Pasco has identified several local improvements to Broadmoor
Boulevard both north and south of the I-182/Broadmoor Boulevard interchange to serve both the
short and long-term needs of the Broadmoor Area. The City has led recent traffic planning and
analysis efforts at the interchange, including the City of Pasco Transportation Master Plan, the
City's most recent Comprehensive Plan update, master planning efforts for the Broadmoor Area,
and the most recent focused analysis of the existing and future needs at the I-182/Broadmoor
Boulevard interchange. All these planning efforts have consistently identified the current I-
182/Broadmoor Boulevard interchange as both an existing and future system deficiency for
multiple modes of travel.
The I-182/Broadmoor Boulevard interchange project is intended to identify, recommend, and
design a solution that addresses the short and long-term interchange needs for all modes of travel.
The I-182/Broadmoor Boulevard interchange project is a multi -phase program that consists of two
phases:
Phase 1: Access Revision Report (ARR) and Initial Environmental Permitting Process
SHAPING A SMARTER TRANSPORTATION EXPERIENCE"
Phase 2: Interchange Design
This scope of work addresses Phase 1 of the project, which includes the following:
Project Methods and Assumptions
WSDOT Access Revision Report (ARR)
Basis of Design
Alternatives Evaluation
Initial Environmental Permitting Process
Design Assistance and Early Agency Coordination
Planning and Environmental Linkage Report
The completion of the interchange design phase is contingent on approval of Phase i by
Washington State Department of Transportation (WSDOT) and Federal Highways Administration
FHWA) approval. This document is the scope for Phase 1 of the project, including the Basis of
Design and Alternatives Analysis Evaluation, which support the ARR process, as well as the
concurrent environmental tasks needed to meet State and Federal permitting requirements.
The immediate project area is approximately located on I-182 from the Columbia River to Road 68,
bounded by Argent Road to the south and Sandifur Parkway to the north (see Figure 1). The
roadway connections, intersections, and interchange improvements, if implemented, would relieve
motor vehicle operations and safety deficiencies at the I-182/Broadmoor Boulevard interchange,
and complete a safe north -south route for cyclists and pedestrians either on or parallel to
Broadmoor Boulevard through the interchange.

Widener and Associates, under a SUBCONSULTANT agreement with the CONSULTANT, will assist
the City in the preparation of environmental documentation and permitting of the project by
providing the following services under the subsequent tasks.
5.1 DESIGN ASSISTANCE AND EARLY AGENCY COORDINATION
Early input into the formation of project alternatives will be provided to ensure each alternative
includes provisions to minimize impacts to the surrounding environment. This coordination within
the various design elements of the project will identify and incorporate minimization measures
early in the alternative development phase of the project and will ensure that an appropriate range
of alternatives are developed prior to the agency coordination.
The CONSULTANT, with assistance from Widener and Associates, will assist the City in presenting
the east west corridor alternatives to both the state and federal permitting agencies to identify the
regulatory issues associated with each alternative. Potential minimization measures for each
alternative will also be identified during the coordination with agency representatives. All
permitting issues and the recommended permitting process for the preferred alternative will be
documented in the project TS&L report.
It is assumed that this effort will be accomplished with the graphics and design drawings required
to complete the TS&L and to conduct the open houses and that no other special presentation
materials are required.
DELIVERABLES
The CONSULTANT's permitting specialist will prepare meeting minutes and memoranda
documenting the coordination activities with state and federal agencies, as required.
5.2 NOISE STUDY
The purpose of the Traffic Noise Report is to evaluate traffic noise levels at sensitive receptors near
the project that would be potentially affected by traffic noise and to identify potential mitigation
measures. If required by WSDOT or FHWA, the Traffic Noise Report will be developed in accordance
with the Washington State Department of Transportation's Environmental Procedures Manual.
1. Sound Level Measurements:
After review of the proposed project alternatives the CONSULTANT shall visit the project
area to identify potentially sensitive noise receivers and to take measurements of existing
ImI-182 AND BROADMOOR BOULEVARD INTERCHANGE PROJECT . DRAFT SCOPE OF WORK • 20
SEPTEMBER 7, 2021
sound levels. The CONSULTANT will measure existing noise levels during the peak hours to
be used in calibrating the noise model. Measurements will be undertaken in accordance
with WSDOT and FHWA guidelines and will be made with a Type 1 sound level meter.
During these measurements, sources of existing noise and topographical features will be
noted and traffic speeds and vehicle numbers and mix will be noted.
2. Construction Noise Impact Evaluation:
The noise analysis will evaluate potential short-term impacts of noise from construction
activities. Construction noise on nearby sensitive receptors will be evaluated based on
estimates published by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) of maximum noise
levels of typical construction equipment in conjunction with simple distance attenuation.
Computer modeling of construction noise levels will not be performed.
3. Traffic Noise Impact Evaluation:
The CONSULTANT will evaluate traffic noise impacts using the FHWA Traffic Noise Model
TNM) to estimate future traffic noise levels for the worst-case build alternative. The worst-
case scenario will be selected from among the build alternatives and will be chosen based
on expected future traffic volumes and the location of the alignment relative to sensitive
receivers. The noise modeling will predict PM peak -hour Leq noise levels from traffic at a
maximum of fifteen (15) receptor locations that could be affected by the proposed project
and will consider existing conditions and design year conditions. Modeling to calculate noise
contour lines is not included.
4. Mitigation Analysis:
The CONSULTANT will identify mitigation measures to reduce noise levels during
construction. If predicted long-term traffic noise levels from operation of the project would
cause noise impacts, mitigation measures will be developed in cooperation with the lead
agency and design engineers. Mitigation analysis, if required, will include evaluation of the
effectiveness and general size and location of natural and man-made noise barriers using
the TNM model.

Indian use of the project area.
3. A systematic field reconnaissance will be conducted to identify previously recorded and/or
unrecorded archaeological sites for the proposed project where ground -disturbing activities are
expected to take place. Field reconnaissance will consist of the traverse of pedestrian transects
at varying intervals, depending on terrain throughout the proposed project area. Shovel probes
digging a hole with a shovel) will be excavated, as deep as feasible, and in areas expected to
have a high probability for cultural resources. Shovel probes will be augmented through auger
probes to explore the deepest possible deposits. Shovel probes will be screened in highly
probable areas and in soil matrixes too dense to identify small chipping debris.
