Dear Messrs. Taylor and Nuse;
In accordance with your request, Turner Collie & Braden Inc. (TC&B) is please to submit this revised
engineering services proposal so the Brushy Creek Municipal Utility' District (MUD) and the City of
Round Rock (City) for a water distribution system evaluation of the MUD water system and a review of
its compatibility with the water distribution system of the City.

The MUD and the City have agreed to a comprehensive review of their combined water distribudon
systems. Recently, HDR Engineering Inc. performed a water distribution system analysis of the water
distribution system for the City. Recently, CMA Engineering, Inc. performed a water distribution
system analysis of the water distribution system for the MUD. This analysis will form the basis for the
evaluation performed in this project.
Based on discussions with the MUD and the City, It is desired to coordinate the HDR analysis of the
City's system with the analysis of the MUD system. This coordination may require HDR to perform
additional computer simulation of the City's water distribution system model. These computer runs will
be performed by HDR with model conditions, defined by TC &B, to be compatible with the MUD water
distribution system analysis.
Additionally, the MUD and the City agreed to consider extending the City's 1031 -foot pressure plane
into the MUD system. This consideration is dependent on the MUD and City distribution system
analyzes defining locations for pressure reducing valves (PRV) that avoid creating areas of excessive
pressure within either system. The City indicated a conceptual plan for PRV locations exists and will a
copy of this plan will be made available to TC &B for evaluation.

Based on this understanding, the objectives of this project consists of the following:
1 At the points of intersection between the City and MUD water distribution systems, define the
following values:
a. At current average day demand, define the pressure and flow.
b. Define ability of City system to deliver a total of 3 mgd at a minimum pressure of 35
psi.
c. Define ability of City system to deliver a total of 9 mgd at a minimum pressure of 35
psi.
2. Define the maximum pressure the City can provide to the MUD system and define the impact on
the Ciry system of providing this pressure. Define how to maximize yield (pressure and flow)
from the City system to the MUD system without damage to the City system.
3. Evaluate the MUD distribution system to determine pressure losses throughout the system.
Coordinate this evaluation with the recent City water distribution system analysis performed by
HDR Engineering Inc.
Determine the impact the installation of bacicflow preventors at the points of interconnection will
have on the pressure and flow into the MUD system. Define this impact for both average day
and peak day conditions.
Confirm capability of MUD well pumps to pump to the 1031 foot pressure plane and define
modifications required to the distribution system to permit this pumping to occur. Examine the
feasibility of extending the City's 1031•foot pressure plane into the MUD system,
6. Develop operational protocol for the water system that is acceptable to the MUD and the City.
SCOPE OF SERVICES
The following tasks are anticipated to be required to accomplish the objectives of the project.
1. Meet with MUD to determine the problems to be addressed and obtain information on the
distribution system.
2. Meet with the Ciry to determine the problems to be addressed and obtain information on the
distribution system.
3. Secure the digital files from CMA Engineering, Inc. for the existing model for the MUD system.

In accordance with your request, Turner Collie & Braden Inc. (TC &B) is please to submit this revised
engineering services proposal to the Brushy Creek Municipal Utility District (MUD) and the City of
Round Rock (City) for a water distribution system evaluation of the MUD water system and a review of
its compatibility with the water distribution system of the City.
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The MUD and the City have agreed to a comprehensive review of their combined water distribution
systems. Recently, HDR Engineering Inc. performed a water distribution system analysis of the water
distribution system for the City. Recently, CMA Engineering, Inc. performed a water distribution
system analysis of the water distribution system for the MUD. This analysis will form the basis for the
evaluation performed in this project.
Based on discussions with the MUD and the City, It is desired to coordinate the HDR analysis of the
City's system with the analysis of the MUD system. This coordination may require HDR to perform
additional computer simulation of the City's water distribution system model. These computer runs will
be performed by HDR with model conditions, defined by TC &B, to be compatible with the MUD water
distribution system analysis.
Additionally, the MUD and the City agreed to consider extending the City's 1031 -foot pressure plane
into the MUD system. This consideration is dependent on the MUD and City distribution system
analyzes defining locations for pressure reducing valves (PRV) that avoid creating areas of excessive
pressure within either system. The City indicated a conceptual plan for PRV locations exists and will a
copy of this plan will be made available to TC &B for evaluation.
