of RM 1431 and Sam Bass Road. It will then be bored under 1431 to the southwest corner of the
intersection, where it will turn 90 degrees to be bored under Sam Bass Road. It will then parallel RM
1431 on City of Round Rock parkland for approximately 5,700 feet. Then, it will be bored under RM
1431 near the Westside Church of Christ to connect to an existing 24-inch City of Round Rock water
line.
This water line will be capable of providing 4 MGD from Round Rock to Cedar Park before the
BCRUA Regional Water System has been constructed. Once the Regional System is in place, the 24-
inch line will provide water to Round Rock from the Regional System. Ultimately,the line must be able
to supply 40.1 MGD from the Regional System to Round Rock.
Two vaults with spool pieces will be included in the design of the 24-inch water line to provide space
for a future water meter and flow control valve.
TASKS
1. Meetings — For budgeting purposes we have assumed one review meeting with the City of Round
Rock to discuss the status of the project and/or review comments.
2. Design Survey— Inland Geodetics will perform a design survey with topographic and tree location
data and property boundary information. The control system will be reconciled with control
established for the Brushy Creek Regional Utility Authority Water Line. The values will be relative
to NAD 83 Texas State Plane Coordinates, Central Zone 4203 (scaled to surface values). Vertical
Datum will be GPS Orthometric heights and projected through the length of the project.
3. Easements — Inland will prepare field notes and metes and bounds descriptions for temporary
construction easements and the permanent easements for the 24-inch water line on the City of Round
Rock parkland and the lot on the southwest corner of RM 1431 and Sam Bass Road. In addition, a
temporary construction easement will be prepared for the property where the 24-inch line will be
connected to the existing Round Rock line. It is our understanding that the City will obtain right-of-
entry to these properties.
4. Geotechnical Investigations —Raba-Kistner will perform a geotechnical investigation and document
the findings in report form. The investigation will include four borings approximately 15-feet deep
in the location of the bore pits for the crossings under RM 1431 and Sam Bass Road. An additional
boring will be done midway down the alignment on the City of Round Rock parkland.
5. Utility Research — KFA will contact utility companies that have infrastructure in the area of the
proposed water line to determine the location of their facilities. Once these locations have been
identified,the water line will be designed to avoid conflicts with the existing utilities.
6. Contract Documents and Technical Specifications —The contract documents and technical
specifications will also be revised to include any additions required for this project. City of Cedar
Park standard contract documents and City of Round Rock standard technical specifications will be
used as was stated in the scope for the 16-inch line. The bid tab will be split into two sections to
clearly separate those construction items that will be paid for by Round Rock from those that will be
paid for by Cedar Park.
7. Construction Drawings—For this work 7 plan and profile sheets and one detail sheet are anticipated.
The drawings will be incorporated into the set for the 16-inch interconnect water line.
8. Coordination for Tie-in to the Proposed Line—The 24-inch line will connect with the existing line at
a location further east than in the original 16-inch water line project, therefore there may be more
areas that will be affected by a system shut-down. KFA will review information in the City of
Round Rock's GIS system to determine how to make the tie-in to the existing system that will cause
the least amount of disruption to the rest of the system.
9. Permitting — KFA will meet with TxDOT early in the project to discuss the proposed bores of RM
1431 and Sam Bass Road and facilitate permit acquisition.
10. Bid Phase — Services include preparing the bid tabulation, evaluating the bids, and issuing a
recommendation for the award of the contract. KFA will organize the bid form such that the Cedar
Park 16-inch water line and Round Rock 24-inch water line will be separate bid sections. KFA will
coordinate with AccuGraphics or Burke's in Round Rock for reproduction and distribution of the
plans and contract documents.
11. Construction Phase—KFA will perform contract administration during the construction phase of the
project. Services include the submittal reviews and additional construction time associated with the
24-inch water line. In addition, KFA will prepare Record Drawings from Contractor's redline as-
built drawings. KFA will supply each City with one set of reproducible Record Drawings. We have
assumed that the City of Cedar Park and/or City of Round Rock will provide inspection services and
materials testing.
DELIVERABLES
1. KFA will provide 50%, 90% and 100% submittals to the City for review and comment. Submittals
will include half-size drawings, and contract documents and technical specifications as they are
developed. Each submittal will include and updated cost estimate and schedule.
2. The final submittal will include one full size set of reproducible construction plans and complete set
of contract documents and technical specifications suitable for public bidding.

SUBJECT: City Council Meeting - May 24, 2007
ITEM: 11D5. Consider a resolution authorizing the Mayor to execute an
Engineering Services Contract with K. Friese & Associates, Inc. for
the RM 1431 24-Inch Water Line Improvements.
Department: Water and Wastewater Utilities
Staff Person: Michael D. Thane, Director of Utilities
Justification:
This project is identified in our current Water Master Plan and is necessary to provide a
maximum of 4 million gallons per day (MGD) of interim water, as well as future emergency
water, to the City of Cedar Park. The water will be provided in accordance with two
Interlocal Agreements between the City of Round Rock and the City of Cedar Park: one for
Interim Water Supply and the other for Emergency Water Supply. In addition, by 2014 with
the completion of Water Line - Segment 3 that will bring treated water from the regional
water treatment plant, this 24-inch water line will become a part of the City's water
distribution system delivering water from the regional water system into our city-wide water
distribution system.
Fungi
Cost: $59,675.00
Source of funds: Capital Project Funds (Self-Financed Utility)
Outside Resources: K. Friese & Associates, Inc.
Background Information:
This project is identified in our current (2004) Water Master Plan to be completed by 2020.
However, now that Lake Travis has become the future water supply, this water line will need
to be completed by 2013. In addition, to deliver Cedar Park 4 MGD of potable water by the
summer of 2009, per our interim water interlocal agreement, this line and two other future
City of Round Rock water improvement projects are necessary. These improvements
include a 2 million gallon Elevated Water Storage Tank and a 7.5 MGD High Service Pump at
the City's Water Treatment Plant. In consideration for the City of Round Rock completing
this 24-inch water line project sooner than was planned, the City of Cedar Park will pay the
City of Round Rock a lump sum of $1,000,000.

EXHIBIT A
City Services
The Owner will provide to the Engineer under this agreement the following
items/information/assistance:
1. Provide right-of-entry to property along proposed transmission line routes in accordance with
Exhibit C—Work Schedule.
2. Provide overall SCADA system and integration protocol for this project.

EXHIBIT B
Engineering Services
PROJECT UNDERSTANDING
K Friese & Associates, Inc. (KFA) is currently under contract with the City of Cedar Park to design the
16-inch Cedar Park— Round Rock Interconnect Water Transmission Main. Presently, this project is at
50% completion of the design phase. The work described in this scope of services will be included in
the interconnect construction contract and adds approximately 5,700 linear feet of 24-inch transmission
main to the project. The 24-inch line will connect to the proposed 16-inch line at the northwest corner
of RM 1431 and Sam Bass Road. It will then be bored under 1431 to the southwest corner of the
intersection, where it will turn 90 degrees to be bored under Sam Bass Road. It will then parallel RM
1431 on City of Round Rock parkland for approximately 5,700 feet. Then, it will be bored under RM
1431 near the Westside Church of Christ to connect to an existing 24-inch City of Round Rock water
line.
This water line will be capable of providing 4 MGD from Round Rock to Cedar Park before the
BCRUA Regional Water System has been constructed. Once the Regional System is in place, the 24-
inch line will provide water to Round Rock from the Regional System. Ultimately,the line must be able
to supply 40.1 MGD from the Regional System to Round Rock.
Two vaults with spool pieces will be included in the design of the 24-inch water line to provide space
for a future water meter and flow control valve.
TASKS
1. Meetings — For budgeting purposes we have assumed one review meeting with the City of Round
Rock to discuss the status of the project and/or review comments.
2. Design Survey— Inland Geodetics will perform a design survey with topographic and tree location
data and property boundary information. The control system will be reconciled with control
established for the Brushy Creek Regional Utility Authority Water Line. The values will be relative
to NAD 83 Texas State Plane Coordinates, Central Zone 4203 (scaled to surface values). Vertical
Datum will be GPS Orthometric heights and projected through the length of the project.
3. Easements — Inland will prepare field notes and metes and bounds descriptions for temporary
construction easements and the permanent easements for the 24-inch water line on the City of Round
Rock parkland and the lot on the southwest corner of RM 1431 and Sam Bass Road. In addition, a
temporary construction easement will be prepared for the property where the 24-inch line will be
connected to the existing Round Rock line. It is our understanding that the City will obtain right-of-
entry to these properties.
4. Geotechnical Investigations—Raba-Kistner will perform a geotechnical investigation and document
the findings in report form. The investigation will include four borings approximately 15-feet deep
in the location of the bore pits for the crossings under RM 1431 and Sam Bass Road. An additional
boring will be done midway down the alignment on the City of Round Rock parkland.
5. Utility Research — KFA will contact utility companies that have infrastructure in the area of the
proposed water line to determine the location of their facilities. Once these locations have been
identified,the water line will be designed to avoid conflicts with the existing utilities.
6. Contract Documents and Technical Specifications —The contract documents and technical
specifications will also be revised to include any additions required for this project. City of Cedar
Park standard contract documents and City of Round Rock standard technical specifications will be
used as was stated in the scope for the 16-inch line. The bid tab will be split into two sections to
clearly separate those construction items that will be paid for by Round Rock from those that will be
paid for by Cedar Park.
7. Construction Drawings—For this work 7 plan and profile sheets and one detail sheet are anticipated.
The drawings will be incorporated into the set for the 16-inch interconnect water line.
8. Coordination for Tie-in to the Proposed Line—The 24-inch line will connect with the existing line at
a location further east than in the original 16-inch water line project, therefore there may be more
areas that will be affected by a system shut-down. KFA will review information in the City of
Round Rock's GIS system to determine how to make the tie-in to the existing system that will cause
the least amount of disruption to the rest of the system.
9. Permitting — KFA will meet with TxDOT early in the project to discuss the proposed bores of RM
1431 and Sam Bass Road and facilitate permit acquisition.
10. Bid Phase — Services include preparing the bid tabulation, evaluating the bids, and issuing a
recommendation for the award of the contract. KFA will organize the bid form such that the Cedar
Park 16-inch water line and Round Rock 24-inch water line will be separate bid sections. KFA will
coordinate with AccuGraphics or Burke's in Round Rock for reproduction and distribution of the
plans and contract documents.
11. Construction Phase—KFA will perform contract administration during the construction phase of the
project. Services include the submittal reviews and additional construction time associated with the
24-inch water line. In addition, KFA will prepare Record Drawings from Contractor's redline as-
built drawings. KFA will supply each City with one set of reproducible Record Drawings. We have
assumed that the City of Cedar Park and/or City of Round Rock will provide inspection services and
materials testing.
DELIVERABLES
1. KFA will provide 50%, 90% and 100% submittals to the City for review and comment. Submittals
will include half-size drawings, and contract documents and technical specifications as they are
developed. Each submittal will include and updated cost estimate and schedule.
2. The final submittal will include one full size set of reproducible construction plans and complete set
of contract documents and technical specifications suitable for public bidding.
