ITEMIZED SCOPE OF SERVICES
PECAN CREEK, TRIBUTARY 4 - PRELIMINARY DESIGN
CITY OF DENTON
BASIC SERVICES
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
This project will consist of a comprehensive analysis and evaluation of Pecan Creek, Tributary 4, (i.e. PEC-
4). This analysis will serve as the basis for the application for a Conditional Letter of Map Amendment
(CLOMR) as well as the basis for design of improvements necessary to alleviate the flooding in the project
area. This analysis will include the collection of the data necessary for the analysis, hydrologic modeling of
the drainage area, encompass the hydraulic modeling of the Creek, make recommendations and
conclusions, present the results of the study to the City, propose specific construction projects that are
intended to mitigate and/or alleviate the flooding in the area, and prepare construction plans for the first of
the proposed construction projects. It is understood that this work will be limited to the analysis of PEC-4
beginning at the new channel at Wainwright and Bell Street and ending at Bernard Street. It will also
include a limited study of the areas where diversion of storm water is known or expected to exist.
GENERAL
A. Basis for the Scope of Services
The following assumptions were used by the ENGINEER for the preparation of this scope of Basic
Services:
1. This analysis will assume that PECA is currently a fully -developed watershed. The current land
uses and zoning will be used to determine the discharge rates as described in the following
section.
2. The existing "as -built" plans are assumed to be available from the City of Denton archives.
3. It is understood that this work will require the creation and/or re-creation of the hydrologic model.
4. This scope will not include modeling of diversions identify as part of this work. Any modeling of
diversion points will be considered as additional work.
5. This scope will include a new hydrologic model based on the SCS Dimensionless Unit
Hydrograph Theory. The new model will provide improved data necessary to refine, or otherwise,
better define the design of the proposed improvements.
6. It is understood that the work performedunder this scope of work will provide the basis for the
design and construction of specific projects identified during the study process.
7. It is understood that this project will include the application for a CLOMR based on the
recommendations presented as part of the hydrological/hydraulic study.
8. Opinion of Cost estimate referenced in this scope of services will be based on conceptual plans
and will contain an appropriate contingency.
9. FEMA CLOMR application fees will be paid by the City, and are not included herein.
B. Scope of Basic Services
The scope of this work is described as follows:
TASK 1: Data Acquisition Collection and Inventory
The data collected for this project will include existing information possessed by City of
Denton and by the Engineer in the form of studies, maps, construction plans, and digital files.
The work included in this Task is described as follows:
Attachment A - Page 1 of 5
a. Evaluate and determine the project objectives, establish design criteria for the
development of recommendations and design of the recommended projects.
b. Obtain available topographic maps, zoning maps, land use maps, and aerial maps
within the study limits from City of Denton. This data will be supplemented by the field
data obtained for this project.
c. Obtain and review available "as -built' plans for drainage structures located within the
project area, including the culverts, bridges, and channel improvements for PEC-4.
Obtain and review available "as -built" plans for selected storm sewers in the area as
needed.
d. Conduct a maximum of 4 site visits to PEC-4 to visually confirm the condition of the
channel and project site. The information gathered from these visits will be used to
determine the roughness coefficients and other parameters used in the numerical
modeling of the stream.
e. Obtain and review available hydrologic and hydraulic studies for PEC-4, including the
"current effective" hydrological/hydraulic models from the Federal Emergency
Management Agency (FEMA); models completed by other consultants, and, Pecan
Creek Master Drainage Plan models.
TASK 2: Hydrologic Analysis
This Task includes the work necessary to develop hydrologic models within the study area.
Study discharges will be determined for PEC-4 over a range of storm events, including the 2-
1 5-, 10-, 25-, 50-, and 100-year storm frequency period, for a fully -developed watershed.
The scope of work necessary to complete this Task is as follows:
a. Prepare a drainage area map from available contour maps provided by the City of
Denton, using a reasonable standard scale.
b. Delineate sub -watersheds as necessary to analyze existing drainage patterns within the
study area and to identify and define proposed improvements. The delineation of the
sub -watersheds will be based on the drainage areas of the existing storm sewer and
surface runoff as defined by the available contour maps, aerial maps, site visits, and
construction plans provided by the City of Denton.
C. Identify areas where storm water may be diverted from the main channel into the street
drainage system. This work will include identification of the diversion points only. No
modeling of the diversion will be considered as part of this scope.
d. Obtain and/or determine the hydrologic parameters for each sub -watershed including
precipitation data, time of concentration, rainfall loss rates, and land use category, and
soils data.
e. Create a new effective hydrologic model for the 2-, 5-, 10-, 25-, 50-, and 100-year storm
frequency based on land use, and/or zoning, maps provided by the City of Denton, soils
maps as published by the SCS, and lag times calculated from the topographic and
drainage maps. The creation of these models will be based on the SCS Dimensionless
Unit Hydrograph Theory, utilizing the HEC-HMS format.
f. Create a new post -project hydrologic model for the 2-, 5-, 10-, 25-, 50-, and 100-year
storm. This model will incorporate the proposed projects based on the recommended
improvements to the PEC4 tributary. The purpose of this model will be to asses the
Attachment A - Page 2 of 5
impact of the improvements in the channels such as the loss of valley storage.
Synthetic rainfall data will be used rather than the rainfall data from the recent storms.
TASK 3: Hydraulic Analysis
This Task includes the work necessary to develop the hydraulic models for PEC4, existing
conditions and for the post -project models based on the recommended improvements. The
work will include a verification of the existing, or effective model, and the creation of new
models based on the discharges for the 2- 5-, 10-, 25-, 50-, and 100-year frequency storms.
a. Confirm the current effective model provided by FEMA. After the verification, create an
existing model based on the improved data obtained from field surveys and calculated
discharges for PEC4.
b. Create "corrected -effective' hydraulic models, using HEC-RAS software, based on
improved survey data and physical measurements. The "corrected -effective' models
will be created for each of the storm discharges calculated as part of Task 1. The
"corrected -effective" models used to establish the existing condition flood plain.
c. Using the "corrected -effective hydrologic and hydraulic models, recommend design
projects that will alleviate, if not eliminate, the flooding potential. The recommendations
will be made based on input from City Staff and the results of modeling process.
d. Present findings of the hydraulic model and recommendations for improvements to the
drainage system for the PEC-4 Tributary. This work will include the preparation of an
interim letter report. This Task assumes a minimum of 2 meetings with City Staff.
e. Create a "post -project' hydraulic model based on the proposed, or recommended,
project alternatives. The post -project hydraulic models will be used to establish base
flood elevations and will provide the basis for the application for a Conditional Letter of
Map Revision.
f. The flood limits will be delineated based upon the results of the hydraulic models as
described in this task. This task does not anticipate a comparison of the Base Flood
Elevation with the finished floor data given as a supplement to the master drainage plan.
TASK 4: Prepare and Submit Conditional Letter of Map Revision
This Task includes the work necessary for the preparation and submittal of an application
to the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), for a Conditional Letter of Map
Revision (CLOMR).
a. Following the completion of Task 3, prepare and submit an application for the CLOMR
based on the proposed conditions. The CLOMR will reflect both new hydrology and
hydraulics.
b. Coordinate with FEMA and the City of Denton as necessary to facilitate the
application for the CLOMR.
TASK 5: Recommendations and Final Presentations
The results, conclusions, and recommendations based on this work will be summarized in
a report and presented to the City upon completion of the study. Included with the report
will be a reproduction of the base maps with the flood plains delineated and possible
improvements to the channel. The following describes the work included in this Task:
Attachment A - Page 3 of 5
a. Prior to submission of the report, preliminary findings will be submitted to the City for
their comment, review, and discussion. Alternatives such as structural channel
improvements, diversions, and culvert improvements will be considered. The intent of
the discussion will be to identify possible alternatives that should be eliminated from
further discussion.
b. Revise the base models to reflect possible improvements that would accomplish the
project objectives.
c. Recommended improvements will be tabulated and depicted on the base maps.
d. Conceptual cost estimates will be prepared for the recommended improvements.
e. A final report will outline the recommendations and estimated costs.
TASK 6: Field Survey
This Task will include the collection of physical survey data needed to supplement the cross
section and finish floor data obtained from previous studies. The additional survey will
primarily consist of cross sections needed to augment those obtained from previous studies,
additional finished floors if needed, and profiles of the centerline and gutters of roadways as
listed in this section. The data will be collected by GPS equipment, except where tree
canopies make the use of such equipment impractical. In those cases, the information will
be collected by more traditional means.
a. The need for additional cross sections will be determined after a review of the previous
models. The determination will be based on the requirements of the modeling methods,
techniques, and approach. The number and location of cross sections will be identified.
It is understood that the physical survey of the additional cross sections will be
supplemented by available topographical information.
b. The additional survey will also include profiles of selected street centerlines and gutters.
This data will be utilized to identify overflow, i.e. diversion, of storm water into the street
drainage system. The work necessary for this Task include, but will not necessarily be
limited to the following list of Streets:

For the purposes of this work, it is understood that a limited environmental assessment of the
project sight will be performed in accordance with the Clean Water Act, Section 404. This
assessment will be limited to the identification of jurisdictional waters and wetlands within the
study limits and the applicability of any Nationwide Permits. The purpose of this assessment
is to provide guidance related to the recommended improvements. Applications for any
individual and or other permits are not considered as part of the scope of this work.
In addition, a cursory antiquities study will be completed as part of this scope of work. It is
noted that much of the existing facility was constructed in the 1930's and 1940's with rock
lined channel. The purpose of the antiquities study is to determine if any of these structures
have any historical significance requiring protective measures.
TASK 8: Preliminary Design Services
Preliminary design services will be provided as part of this work. The work will include
recommending a schedule for the completion of the entire project. The schedule will be
based on input from the City, priorities as defined by the City, on the physical constraints and
conditions imposed by the hydrologic/hydraulic response of the system to the design storms,
and on an opinion of probable costs.
a. Preparation of Preliminary . Schematics, showing the proposed improvements.
Schematic plans will include plan view exhibits, profiles and typical sections. These
schematics, along with the data developed in Task 3, will be used for submittal of the
CLOMR to FEMA for the entire limits of the project.
b. Preparation of Preliminary Construction Cost estimates, including necessary utility
relocations.
c. Preparation of a Project Plan, based on schematics and cost estimates, that designates
the several specific construction projects that will encompass the entire stream reach.
C. Scope of Special Services
TASK 9: Public Meetings
For budgeting purposes we have assumed that one presentation to the Public Utilities Board will be
required. TNP will support the staff with exhibits and information for the presentation, and will
attend and assist in that presentation, if requested. In addition, we have assumed two public
meetings to share with and solicit information from the public. TNP will prepare exhibits, make a
