Department: Engineering and Development Services Staff Person: Michael Thane, Sr. Engineer/Engineering Manager Justification: Espey Consultants is designing improvements to channel and drainage systems in the interest of flood control, appearance, and to facilitate maintenance for the Dry Branch Tributary No.1 channel that extends from A.W. Grimes Boulevard easterly through the South Creek Subdivision. A 24 -inch wastewater line currently extends across the channel where the proposed improvements will occur. Because of conflicts with the flow lines, the City has requested that Espey investigate alternative alignments for the existing wastewater line as it crosses Dry Branch Tributary No. 1. This Supplemental Agreement No. 1 includes Espey analyzing several alignment alternatives, including rerouting upstream, use of sag sewers, and installing sag drains. Espey will design and provide plans, specifications, and a cost estimate using the selected wastewater alignment from the analysis. Espey will incorporate the wastewater line design into the existing plans for the channel improvements. Funding: Cost: $7,962.00 Source of funds: Capital Project Funds (GO Bond 2001) Outside Resources: Espey Consultants, Inc. Background Information: Dry Branch Tributary No. 1 channel traversing through South Creek subdivision is difficult to maintain and is critical for carrying flood waters safely through the subdivision. This same channel is experiencing stabilization problems near its intersection with Gattis School Road. Also, there have been flooding problems in the Greenslopes Subdivision just west of Dry Branch Tributary No. 1 near the northern intersection of Greenlawn Blvd. and Parkside Circle. This project will provide design of channel improvements that will increase channel capacity and improve the appearance and maintainability of Dry Branch Tributary No. 1. The City Manager approved the original agreement with Espey Consultants, Inc. on September 10, 2004.

Alignment Alternatives Analysis — EC will investigate alignment alternatives for the existing 24" wastewater line as it crosses Dry Branch Creek. We anticipate analyzing 4 to 5 alignment alternatives, including rerouting upstream, use of sag sewers, and installing sag drains. Analysis will also include iterative HEC -RAS modeling of Dry Branch Creek Tributary No. 1 as necessary. Approximately two project meetings and five conference calls will be necessary to complete the analysis. EC will verbally recommend a design solution to the City of Round Rock. No written report will be prepared. 2. Wastewater Line Design — EC will design and provide plans, specifications, and a cost estimate using the selected wastewater alignment from the previous analysis. EC will incorporate the wastewater line design into the existing plan and profile sheets; however, additional details and sections will be required to accurately describe the proposed work. This work will be included in the next submittal to the City (anticipated to be the 90%). It is anticipated that this design will not include any additional survey or geotechnical investigations. ADDENDUM TO EXHIBIT D Fee Schedule The changes to the fee schedule for this project are as follows: EXHIBIT D Fee Schedule Budget Estimate A budget breakdown by task is included in the following table.
