Background
The Brushy Creek East Regional Wastewater Treatment Plant (Plant) is owned by the Brushy
Creek Regional Wastewater System (BCRWWS), who are the Cities of Round Rock, Cedar Park,
and Austin (Partners). The City of Leander will become a part owner on completion of the
current 10 MGD expansion project to the Plant. The engineering team, led by Prime consultant
Plummer Associates, consultants Freese & Nichols, and K. Friese &Associates (Engineer)
designed the most recent 10 MGD expansion, which is currently in the construction phase.
The purpose of this scope of services is to provide design and bidding professional services for
additional effluent filter treatment, with a 48 MGD peak flow capacity. This scope is an
amendment to the Effluent Filter PER project. The Effluent Filter PER Project scope had an
undefined $200,000.00 set aside for continuing work into detailed design. The scope defined
below is the entire detailed design scope. The previously authorized $200,000.00 is deducted
from the design fee.

Task 9. Supplemental Services
[None included.]
LIST OF ASSUMPTIONS
The following assumptions were used when developing the scope of service and estimating the
compensation to CONSULTANT. These assumptions are in addition to the scope and additional
services set forth in the scope of work.
1. The next Discharge Permit issued by TCEQ is assumed to be for Final Phase 40 MGD with 0.5 mg/L
Phosphorous and the existing TSS, BOD5 and NH3 limits. Changes from this assumption will require
reevaluation and rework.
2. City of Round Rock will process City permits and may use progress sets at the identified design levels
to support permit applications. CONSULTANT is not providing any additional "permit sets" or permit
applications. Consultant will meet with code officials as detailed in the scope to identify and review code
requirements.
3. The design will be based on the federal,state,and local codes and standards in effect on the effective
date of the authorization to proceed. Changes in these codes may necessitate a change in scope. This
includes the current FEMA adopted 100 year(1% annual chance)flood plain for the Plant site.
4. The design work on this PROJECT will last 12 months from authorization to proceed and be completed
prior to a bidding period, which is assumed to be 3 months.
5. CONSULTANT's design delivery process will be employed. With the exception of the final review,the
PROJECT team will not stop during formal reviews of submittals.
6. The design documents will be prepared for a single construction contract.
7. PARTNERS specifications will be used as the basis for the Division 0 specifications. CONSULTANT
master specifications will be used asthe basis for other technical specifications and Division 1 documents.
8. The drawings will follow CONSULTANT CAE/CAD standards. AutoCAD will be used to develop the
drawings.
9. Investigation and remediation of possible hazardous waste, asbestos, lead paint or other types of
contamination will be conducted by others if needed.

FINAL 6/2/2023
Scope of Work
Brushy Creek Tertiary Filters Project
10. No existing buildings, equipment,treatment units,or facilities will be modified except as specifically
noted above.
11. Storm water management facilities are assumed to not be required.
12. Power coordination/Arc Flash Study is not included in the Scope of Work.
The following assumptions are technical in nature:
Civil/Geotechnical
1. Legal, easement or plat surveys of the existing site will not be required.
2. Site drawings will only be prepared for those areas of the plant where new facilities are to be
constructed or involving significant disturbance to existing grading.
3. The only new roadway work required is in the immediate area of new and modified facilities and
existing road rehabilitation.
Structural/Arch i tectural/Geotechnical
1. Conventional spread foundations will be required for new facilities. Over excavation, preload, piles,
or underdrain systems are not required. Uplift due to high groundwater levels, if any, will be
addressed with thickened base slabs or pressure relief valves in slabs. No underdrain systems or
tension systems will be required.
Process/Mechanical
1. Only hydraulic assessments required for the design of the new or modified facilities are included.The
basis of the hydraulic design is outlined in the submitted PER for this project, dated March 3'1, 2023.
This also includes the flow limitations of the gravity component and within the treatment units
themselves.
2. The necessary process design, liquids/solids balance and energy balance calculations will be
performed.
3. Design concerning "plant-wide" utility systems such as basin drainage, water, and in-plant waste
collection/disposal will be limited to extensions and/or changes in existing piping. No new structures
or equipment will be needed.
4. No corrosion control provisions will be required other than materials selection and coatings.
HVAC and Plumbing
1. N/A
Electrical and Instrumentation & Controls Systems
1. CONSULTANT will not perform the work of developing process control system software for either the
PLC or the PC interface as part of the design phase services.
ADDITIONAL SERVICES
1. Additional Field Surveys for topography, SUE and geotechnical
2. Outside funding grant applications assistance
3. Updates to the plans and specifications for value engineering.
PARTNERS PROVIDED SERVICES

and will provide labor and safety equipment for such access. PARTNERS will perform, at no
cost to CONSULTANT, such tests of equipment, machinery, pipelines, and other components
of PARTNERS's facilities as may be required in connection with CONSULTANT's services.
3. PARTNERS will give prompt notice to CONSULTANT whenever PARTNERS observe or become
aware of development that affects the scope or timing of CONSULTANT's services, or of
defect in the work of CONSULTANT or the CONTRACTOR.
