County Engineer Brief description of the problem/issue: Repairs from the 2013 flood are ongoing. In January 2014, the County entered into professional services contracts with three engineering consultants to help with the design repairs and construction inspection of flood damaged sites. Of the 34 damaged sites, all but one of the sites have been fully repaired. The last site is currently under construction with completion expected to occur in the summer of 2019. •1 Atkins is providing post design engineering services on the construction of the bridge. Their structural engineer is primarily answering questions from the contractor regarding the bridge. The engineer is also reviewing material submittals as they pertain to the bridge to make sure the materials are within specifications. Atkins is not increasing their 2018 rates for this project. The current contract with Atkins has enough money budgeted to complete the contract without the need for a change order. What options exist for the Board? (Include consequences, impacts, costs, etc. of options) 1. Renew the contract for Atkins through August 13, 2019. This option allows the County to continue utilizing the expertise of the structural engineer as it relates to the bridge construction. The end date is approximately 2 months past the anticipated project completion date, so we will have them available for the grant closeout with CDOT. 2. Do not review the contract for Atkins. This option will potentially cause issues with the completion of the bridge because Weld County does not have the in-house expertise to answer the structural questions regarding the bridge construction. Recommendation: Authorize Public Works to place the contract renewals on the BOCC agenda for approval. Approve Recommendation Sean P.

White, Don Dunker Brief description of the problem/issue: The Public Works Department entered into a contract with Bohanan Huston Inc (BHI) for design of permanent flood recovery repairs in August of 20I4. BHI has satisfactorily completed design work for the Thompson (FEMA) Sites Flood Recovery Project. At this time, BHI is doing design work for flood recovery repairs for Bridge 54/13A, the remaining Thompson River Corridor site, which is an FHWA site. Because Bridge 54/13A is an FHWA site, due to the classification of WCR 54 as an arterial roadway, the more stringent design, review and acceptance process by CDOT is required. Weld County previously received a scope and fee proposal from BHI which included Bridge 54/13A. At that time, in August of last year, the estimated design cost for Bridge 54/13A was $51,223.20. Since that time, the County has met with CDOT and they have revised the Environmental Clearance requirements for this site. Based on this direction from FHWA and CDOT, BHI has revised their scope and fee to cover the additional work which was not in the original scope & fee. Staff believes that due to the more stringent Environmental Clearance process by CDOT, the cost estimates are reasonable for this work. The additional cost will be requested by CDOT from FHWA to be added to the amount to be reimbursed to the County. Public Works recommends a change order to the contract already in place with BHI to include this work, in the amount of $3,795.00, be signed by the consultant and appropriate staff.

Which is the preferred method of delivery of our qualifications? 2) If hardcopies are desired, how many copies will be needed for evaluation? ANSWER: The preferred method of submittal from the consultants for RFQ #B1300201 is to deliver five (5) hard copies of their submittal to the Weld County Purchasing Department by the bid due date. (Some vendors were told that an email version would be okay. The Public Works Dept forgot to put that in their bid/RFQ. 3) Regarding the attached RFQ, will Weld County be soliciting separate Geotechnical services necessary for these repairs, doing them in house, or should we add this scope to our SOQ? And if it does need to be included should we include design and testing services or design only? ANSWER We don't anticipate any geotechnical services related to design of the proposed flood recovery improvements. We do anticipate some geotechnical testing services (quality control testing) related to the construction of the proposed flood recovery improvements. ***"Consultants shall limit the total length of their submittal to a maximum of 20 pages, excluding cover and divider. Proposals greater than 20 pages will be rejected" - this means everything you want to include in your RFQ shall be no more than 20 pages. **** 8100 S, Akron St, Suite 300 Centennial, CO 80112 (303) 221-0802 QUALIFICATIONS FOR ENGINEERING SERVICES 2013 FLOOD 'RECOVERY RFQ#B 1300201 WELD COUNTY DEPARTMENT OF PUBLIC WORKS DECEMBER 11, 2013 WELD COUNTY PURCHASING DEPARTMENT POBOX 758 1150 O STREET, ROOM 107 GREELEY, COLORADO 80631 QUALIFICATIONS FOR ENGINEERING SERVICES 2013 FLOOD RECOVERY RFQ #B1300201 Weld County Department of Public Works D_ecemberfl,_2013 Weld County Purchasing Department PO Box 758 115O.O Street, Room 107 Greeley, Colorado 80631 ^ ICON Engineering, Inc. 8100 S.

(ICON) is pleased to submit this proposal to complete Engineering Services related to the 2013 Flood Recovery. Shortly after the floods hit Colorado, ICON toured many of the damaged areas of Weld County along with representatives from the County Public Works Department; and a representative from the Colorado water Conservation Board (CWCB). During the tour, we shot elevations of high water marks and extensively photographed damaged areas. The high water marks were then geo-referenced onto aerial photos taken both before and during the flood event. This gave our firm an appreciation for the tremendous amount of work faced by the County in your recovery efforts. ICON is well versed in recovery processes as members of our staff have worked on various disasters both nationally (throughout Colorado, and in other states including Alaska; Mississippi; Idaho and North Dakota) as well as internationally (Haiti and Mexico). As a result of the 2003 flood, we have worked on public infrastructure improvements for Aurora; Boulder; Estes Park and Fort Collins. ICON is the only Colorado based consulting engineering company that has sewed FEMA under direct contracts; and the CWCB for flood damage reports, floodplain delineations and grant funding for disaster mitigation, An additional plus that ICON brings to this project is our past working relationship with CDOT, specially we have completed several projects that have involved reviews and/or funding through CDOT Region 4. Lastly, ICON has an impressive record for design and construction administration of roadways; culverts and bridges; and channel restoration. We would like the County to know that ICON has a great deal of interest in this project in that our firm is strategically structured to complete the anticipated work in a cost effective manner using our time tested ties with critical reviewing agencies. We have a well established Team of professionals having technical capabilities to complete the designs and our Team is immediately available. Our Statement of Qualifications presents a summary of our relevant experience which should adequately demonstrate our competency. We can say with a great deal of confidence that ICON isvery knowledgeable. of theproject requirements, we are well versed in the _technical requirements, and frankly we have concluded that we would be able to excel at this project. The only remaining task standing in the way of -start working -on this project is to convince the Weld County Department of Public Works, that in fact, ICON is thebest choice for this project We request that as you read through our submittal, please keep the following key points in mind: ,1.) Approximately 95% of our work is and always has been completed for public sector clients. 2.) Personnel that will be assigned to this project have completed near identical projects for several front range communities. Please call our references. 3.) ICON is financially secureand we have a long-standing, stable staff. 4.) As a Colorado based small business, all of the proceeds of this -..workwill stay right here in Colorado. For your ease in readily evaluating our capabilities, our statement of qualifications has been divided into the same five categories as defined in the RFQ Selection Criteria. While we are respectfully humbled by the power and immense destructiveness of flood events, ICON is none -the -less confident in our abilities to restore a measure of order to the chaos that resulted from the 2013 floods. We look forward to working with the Public Works Department, FEMA, FHWA, members of the public and other stakeholders on this important project to maximize the use of federal funding in completing the design of the needed repairs.

As a result of the September flood event, flows in Westerly Creek exceeded the capacity of a regional detention pond in Expo Park, overtopping a major arterial roadway. Additional flood flows were introduced to the area from the Highline Canal which also crosses Alameda in the same area. At this location, Alameda has a five travel lane configuration with attachedsidewalks on both sides.. Flows cascading over Alameda eroded the roadway embankment leaving a near vertical 15 -feet tall out face that actually left the sidewalk undercut and suspended without -any support: This forced the closing of the sidewalk and one lane of traffic. Situated across from a major public park and adjacent to a school, the damage created a very dangerous situation to both pedestrians and roadway users. ICON's Performance: 45 -days from being told there was a problem to completion of construction! "Thanks so much for the great work : and how you folks drive the ship' Steve Clark, Aurora Project Manager" On September 17, 2013, Aurora's Associate City Engineer Tom McMinimme contacted ICON with an emergency request to assist the City by designing improvements, and then selecting a construction contractor, negotiating a construction contract, and facilitating the construction. Wasting no time, ICON was able to facilitate the design and construction, going from initial notice of the problem to completion of the construction within 45 -days. Traffic control measures were removed on October. 30th, and full use of the finished project started yesterday. The City had estimated the project would cost in the vicinity of $200,000. ICON and our selected contractor were able to complete the design and construction at a cost of less than half. the City estimate.. This project was managed by Penn Gildersleeve directing. ICON, staff that will also be assigned to the Weld County flood recovery work.

Adams County Parkway, 1st Floor Brighton, CO 80601 303 453-8777 12. 2.3 KEY POINTS TO CONSIDER IN SELECTING ICON • ICON has successfully completed planning and preliminary and final design including total bid package documents of projects for Special Districts, Cities and Counties throughout Colorado, including roadway projects in Weld County. We understand the County's review process and how to prepare designs for either County crews to construct or to provide a set of contract documents for public bid. We can minimize the time required by your designated project manager by a focused approach to communication. • ICON completed the .cMl design of the 1-25 bridges over the St. Vrain River in Weld County near Longmont. Working directly for COOT, the work included a new frontage road bridge, drop structure and protection of bridge piers. We recently completed the design of a major arterial roadway widening of Dahlia Avenue for the City of Thornton, funded through COOT. We know and can work with CDOT general criteria. The design and construction budgets for these projects are very similar to your project. Most importantly, our Team of design engineers that completed these projects is intact and ready to begin work for Weld County. • ICON's number one client in terms of water resource design assignments through the years has been the UD&FCD, for whom we have completed in excess of 300 contracts. The majority of our assignments have included the entire range of services from surveys/mapping, UM studies, planning design, storm drainage, construction maintenance and special studies. No other firm can match the number of projects that ICON has completed for the UD&FCD. Our drainage expertise translates to providing Weld County a drainage analysis that will be technically beyond reproach, and will make that portion of this project run smoothly. ICON is very proud to be a Colorado based small business. Every dollar of your contract will stay in Colorado. Unlike with a lot of large national firms, you are not paying for high gloss, expensive overhead that is largely out-of-state. Our capabilities match and exceed even the largest of national firms, but we also provide hands-on management by an Owner of the firm, and pledge we will provide great service since working for local governments in Colorado is our lifeline. ICON design projects can be seen throughout Colorado. Two of our projects were named as the Grand Award Winner for Outstanding Engineering Projects by the Colorado Association of Stormwater and Floodplain Managers Association. These projects are the Goose Creek Channelization in Boulder, 1996 and the Marston Drainageway North in Denver, 2000. A third project, Aurora Jewell Wetlands, won an Honor Award for Outstanding Achievement by the CASFM in 2001. The Aurora Jewell Wetlands also won two awards from the American Society of Landscape Architects: The Land Stewardship Award and a Merit Award for design. arston Dr Goose Cree 13 SECTION 3 - PERFORMANCE ON SIMILAR PROJECTS 3.1 RELEVANT EXPERIENCE Examples of roadway designs completed by ICON can be found throughout the Front Range and include local streets through major arterials. We have selected several of our many roadway/drainage design projects to highlight in detail that most closely match the work that will be completed as a part of this contract. Our selected projects are all public sector roadway improvements that are similar in size and complexity, involved design of drainage improvements, roadway widening, and interfacing with local landowners. Designs of these projects were all completed within the past 5 -years, all under the direct supervision of Matthew Ursetta, and most of our proposed Team. Construction of Dahlia and Highway 85/31st Street Intersection in Evans are pending. Lowell is currently under construction. Within this submittal, we have provided contacts for references for each of these projects. Although similar in nature to the work that will be required along WCR 13, for the most part these projects were technically much more difficult due to the more urban setting, numbers of utility conflicts and the need to work with tight geometrical constraints. As an example, widening and paving of the Dupont Roadways required over 110 easements. The Dahlia widening project was co -funded by CDOT and the final construction package involved over 60 full size drawings. The complexity of someof,our relevant project experience is demonstrated by these. photos:. To the left is apicture.of Lowell Blvd under construction. This $2.8 million upgrade included a new 12 -inch waterline and desigp of a parallel storm water channel.:: Below is an aerial viewof the Dahlia 'widening. Dahlia included installation°of a .60inch.storm sewer outfall to the S. Platte River, 'along Wit 'a• traffic signal at the intersection with :88'h::Avenue:::.:; • in the past 5 -years, ICON Engineering has been awarded a total of 189 separate contracts with public sector cliental. Of these base contracts, a total of 11 are for continuing service or "On Call Contracts" that have resulted in an -.: additional total of 18<'• Task Orders. Our assignments have, included roadways, drainage related improvements, parks, other public sector infra -structure improvements. This means that in the past five years, ICON has been awarded a total of 317 projects that have a direct relevance to the Weld County's Flood Recovery Contract Although ICON is a relatively small Colorado based consulting firm, we truly believe that there is not another engineering firm in the State of Colorado, regardless of size or national standing that has our focus and success in completing Public Sector contracts of the size envisioned by the County. This rather -brash further supported the se statement is by IFIC`le facts: • For the Adams County, ICON has completed the design of over 25 city blocks of roadway and utility updates. Over the past three years, ICON has been the County's most utilized consultant. • Outside of the Denver Metro area, the City of Fort Collins is widely accepted as an example of a premier Colorado entity with respect to management of public infrastructure. ICON is in our 16th year of service under an Open Ended Services Contract wherein we have performed literally dozens of planning and design projects. We are the only non -Fort Collins based firm to achieve this type of working relationship. I4 • Year after year, ICON completes more work for the Urban Drainage and Flood Control District than any other consulting firm, and no other Colorado agency has the magnitude of drainage work as the UD&FCD. • ICON is the only firm Colorado based firm that has held an Open -Ended Study Contractor Agreement for with FEMA Region 8. ICON held this contract for the past six years. Colorado is the most active of the six states comprising Region 8. ICON Projects Get Built! We are proud of our ability to find solutions. Whatever the project needs, we find a way. We specialize in: Resolving difficult utility conflicts; Working within active roads; Areas with tight easements • Working with fixed budgets and schedules We summarize below a few of the projects that our roject eam w ic we wi assign to -this contract has worked on !n the past five years and that are particularly relevantto the Weld County work. We have selected these particular projects due to the relative complexity of the work, skill sets required and similarity to elements of the expected work. We. have recent experience on a wide range of Civil Engineering and Surveying Services contracts. We currently have contracts for roadway and local drainage design engineering services with: Adams County, Douglas County and Urban Drainage and Flood Control District; Aurora; Colorado Springs; Columbine Valley; Denver; Fort Collins; and Thornton. We have provided service for the City. of Fort Collins on similar, on -call contracts for over 16 -years. In addition, we are currently completing the design of projects involving hydrology/hydraulics, floodplain delineation, master planning, stream stabilization, bridge hydraulic sizing, utility design, pipelines, wetlands protection/enhancement, for public and private clients throughout Colorado._ ICON Relevant Projects Alameda Boulevard Emergency Flood Repair - I-25 Bridge St. Vrain Creek Stabilization, CDOT Caley Street at Goldsmith Gulch Culvert Replacement, Centennial - Dupont Area Streets, Adams County - Goat Hill Area Streets, Adams County - Lowell Boulevard, Adams County - Tomah Road, Douglas County - Highway 85 and 3151 Street Intersection, Evans - East Parker Road, Douglas County - Pueblo, 35th, Streets, Evans - High Street, Black Hawk Quebec Street Widening, Arapahoe County - Four Square Mile Collectors, Arapahoe County - Parker Triangle Collectors, Arapahoe County - South Dayton ..iireet Widening, Arapahoe County -Inverness Roadways, Inverness Business Park - Adams County 2013 Paving Program, Adams County 3.2 SCHEDULE, BUDGET AND We feel that the best evidence.o the many repeat contracts that County to call our references..

Our past experience, knowledge of FEMA, COOT and County requirements will allow completion in a timely and cost effective ;manner_ However, our motivation goes beyond this being "just another job." ICON has a company history of compassionate service during cjisasters that is deeply engrained into our firm's culture. We seriously want to ::help the County, simply because it is the right thing to do. In addition to the foregoing, ICON is very interested in this project owing to the following specific reasons: • ICON has diligently pursued work with Weld County over the past several years. We have invested considerable • . •:: time and effortin these past projects, and have had some success in that we have been short listed and interviewed ' for similar projects with the County, and have completed multiple projects for COOT Region 4 and surrounding • communities.The investigation and due diligence associated with our research to prepare this current statement of --qualifications is further proof of our continuing interest in working with the County. We look forward to a strong and -• mutually beneficial working relationship with the County that will last for many years. ICON's team of roadway design engineers, channel restoration and hydrology/hydraulic engineers has recently completed two significant roadway design projects and we are actively looking for similar sized transportation related projects to keep our team intact and busy_ We are particularly anxious to have the opportunity to .utilize our skills and .. , training to the betterment of the County. . ICON was recently awarded an on -call contract for services with the City of Fort. Collins. There is a great deal of economy, and synergy to be realized if we can utilize our skills in the same general geographical area. Our firm has •_ 'specifically targeted Weld County as our geographically most advantageous future client. `4.2 WELD COUNTY KNOWLEDGE The cover to this submittal shows superimposed images of the same area before and during the flood event. This is CR 53, just south of CR 388. The aerial imagery outside of the circle is sourced from ESRI's World Imagery layer taken prior to the floods (no exact date given), and inside the circle is from 9/13, provided to ICON by the Colorado Water Conservation Board (CWCB). ICON's GIS department has developed a very easy to use program which allows side by side comparison of before and after flood events for all of Weld County which we have made available to the CWCB and FEMA. Additionally, ICON toured many of the flood damaged areas in Weld County along with representatives of the County and the CWCB, taking pictures and surveying high water marks. These pictures and survey points were then geo-referenced onto the above referenced aerial photos such that real field data and detailed photographs (samples below) are also available. This GIS also allows geo-referencing other data layers such as effective FEMA DFIRM mapping and FIS reports. At such time as the new FEMA sponsored 1 -foot contour interval mapping of the flood impacted S. Platte Corridor and major tributaries is made available, we will add this to our data layer, thereby building a complete spatial database of the 2013 flood event. ICON has an extensive knowledge of the 2013 flood event! Our knowledge of Weld County is further enhanced through our past work on projects in the County under contracts with such entities as Greeley, Evans, CDOT, USACOE, and the CWCB. In addition to our work under direct contract with CDOT, our design project for Greeley was co -funded by CDOT and consequently we are well aware of their criteria, drawing format requirements, ROW and environmental permitting requirements. 16 SECTION 5 - PROJECT APPROACH 5.1 PROJECT UNDERSTANDING ICON's cover The 2013 flood event in weld County resulted in approximately $30 to $40 million in public infrastructure damage. That ICON is aware of, the County has awarded: 5 contracts for bridge repairs totaling over $4.2 million; 1 contract for roadway repairs for $146,000; and a quantities based contract for debris removal. At this time, the County is seeking multiple consultants to provide engineering design, surveying, plan preparation and construction management services to assist the County in narrowing the gap between the damage and repaired infrastructure. As this was a Presidentially Declared Disaster, Federal funding through the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA); FEMA; and/or the Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRSC) may be utilized thereby requiring meeting the various requirements of the applicable agency. At a minimum, this may include meeting requirements of FHWA- 1273, and CDOT DBE requirements. •(CDOT Form 1331). Specific needs for each project may differ, primarily related to funding source. Overall, the scope of work can be expected to include the following elements: • Processing Applicable Federal Funding Forms • Inspection / Evaluation Of Damaged Infrastructure • Design Of Highway Bridge / Structure Improvements • Road And Intersection Improvements • Analysis Of Hydrology And Hydraulics For Design Purposes • Quantity Takeoffs And Cost Estimates • Bed Documents And Specifications • Surveying Services Including Site Surveys, Staking; Legal Descriptions For ROW • Plan Drawing Preparation • Obtaining Required Environmental, Historical And Other Permits • Traffic Engineering Services • Construction Management / Observation Obviously, close coordination with the County staff will be required in order to produce the conceptual, preliminary, and final plans. This will include preparing design schedules; attending meetings (possibility to include public meetings as needed); facilitating County plan reviews. Plan documents may include general layouts, structural details, tabulation of quantities; plan views, profile views, cross sections, general notes, construction notes and details. Roadway geometry and intersection alignments may also be included. It is expected that projects may include all or parts of the following general tasks: 1. On -site inspection 2. Pre -design Meeting With County and Stakeholders 3. Preliminary Survey / Mapping 4. Determination if Geotechnical Investigations are required 5. Utility Coordination 6. Roadway and/or intersection alignment 7. Structure Concept and Preliminary design 8. Environmental Clearances and Permits 9. Preparing for and attending Field Inspection Review (FIR) 10. Hydraulic Design 11. Structure and Roadway Final Design 12. Utility Relocations as needed - 13. Property Ownership and ROW Plans 14. Traffic Control Plans 15. Construction Specifications 16. Prepare for and attend Final Office Review 17. Make Final Submittals 18. Assist with Bidding services, Attend Pre -Bid; addendum preparation if necessary 19. Shop Drawing Approval 20. Construction engineering / fvlanagement 5.2 CRITICAL ISSUES First and foremost is making sure that the final product and the steps taken to reach that end all follow required FEMA and FHWA criteria to make sure that funding eligibility is maintained. Proper documentation must be strongly enforced in order to assure funding compliance.Secondly, meeting project schedules is very important. There are currently many ;declared national disasters, and FEMA has shown very little give in meeting delivery dates once they -are contracted. • - • ICON Has First -Hand Understanding Of The. 2013. Flood Damage In Weld County Which Impacted Roadways, Utilities And Natural Drainageways. 17 5.3 TECHNICAL APPROACH PRELIMINARY DESIGN Meetings and Coordination - Communication with the County and the surrounding property owners is a key component to a successful project. As we see it, ICON will need to integrate closely with the County and become an extension of the County's staff. Accordingly we will need to allocate adequate time in our scope to meet with the County multiple times during the project. The meetings will include a kickoff / site visit meeting; progress meetings; and 2 CDOT review meetings`to discuss the County's comments on the preliminary and final designs. The kick-off meeting and detailed site visit with the project sponsors will help the team to get a clear understanding of the constraints and opportunities related to the project site. We will photo document the existing conditions within the project site and prepare a map that presents the location of the photographs. Copies of the photographs and display map will be supplied to the County. Depending on the assigned project, we may need to coordinate with irrigation and railroad companies. There are additional review and permit requirements for each entity. As an example, the GWRR Real Estate Department may require Private Railroad Crossing Application and as such additional fees for engineering review and Construction Permit may be required. Note that this is likely eligible for federal reimbursement if properly documented. ICON will schedule all meetings, prepare agendas and complete meeting minutes. Often times in between meetings, project issues will come up that need to be discussed and resolved in a timely manner in an effort to keep the project moving forward. We have found that forwarding drawings via email followed by telephone conversations is an effective way to communicate and resolve issues in between meetings. Coordination with FEMA and CDOT will also be required. , We understand that the County uses CDOT Criteria with regards to roadway design. Prior to the kick-off meeting we will develop a list of roadway design criteria from both COOT and AASHTO. The list will be submitted to the County's design team for review and comment, along with a conceptual level analysis (based on available mapping) of how the existing roadway and/or structure meets or violates this criteria. Our goal here is to come to an agreement with Weld County on the listed roadway designandconstruction criteria prior to beginning any work. Right-of-way and Easement — For both the preliminary design and the final design we will identify required ROW and easements. We will utilize County prepared ROW maps to develop drawings that present the property acquisition requirements. These drawings will present the dimensions and areas of each required parcel along with the property owner's names: Typically, CDOT and the FHWA require resolution of all property ownership issues prior to approval of projects for bidding: Utility Investjyations:— For any assigned project, we investigate the existing utilities and identify agencies which might have facilities -within the project site such as: UTILITY COMPANIES—Poudre Valley -Rural Electric Association, •Inc, Qwest, and US' Sprint -PETROLEUM COMPANIES - Colorado Interstate Gas; Nobel Energy. MISCELLANEOUS UTILITIES= DCP Midstream LLC, City & County of Broomfield,' and Kerr, McGee / Anadarko, Many of, the petroleum companies and out of town cable companies generally have utilities located along the roadways. We will contact- all of the'utility and ditch companies-to'obtain new Utility maps: The maps will be used to create .an exxisting'conditions utility drawing. As is usually the case, many of the available utility maps are only conceptual in nature and only indicate the presence of utilities, but not a.precise location. Therefore, we may need to senda utility locating company to the site to paint the location of the utilities. We will coordinate this effort with the County so' that full surveys, can be made of the location of the, utility paint marks. We will utilize this survey information to fine tune the location of the utilities in the base mapping. The updated utility map will be sent to all of the'utility and ditch companies requesting_ their review and asking them if they know of any proposed utilities that might be constructed in the limits of the -project. Based on the utility company's comments, we will finalize the utility drawings for use during the remainder of the project. Potholes - We will also coordinate and conduct a potholing program if needed. As a part of this program we will prepare drawings that present potential utility conflicts and the locations of recommended exploratory excavations. Once the project team is in agreement with the number and location of potholes to be completed, we will coordinate this work with -our sub -consultant. Surveying, Mapping and Property Ownership — It is our understanding that these services will be provided by Weld County. Once we receive the mapping and right -of way maps from the County we will format the electronic files for use during design. We have included time in our proposal to identify right-of-way and easement requirements as discussed above. During the course of the design there will be additional surveying required to define the locations and elevations of existing improvements. We have also included time in our proposal to coordinate additional survey requirements with the County. 18 Geotechnical Investigation — The County has indicated that geotechnical services may not be required, however our team is available to assist if needed. Typically, as a part of the geotechnical services, design of the pavement sections will be furnished to the selected consultant. Initiate Permits - During the Pre -design Phase, we will develop a list of potential permits required by Weld County, (or adjoining county if needed) and the State Department. of Public Health, CDOT, the GWRR and UPRR, and the US Army Corp of Engineers. Permit application forms will be obtained and a memo will be prepared to outline specific details related to each permit such as the time to obtain the permit, submittal requirement including drawings and reports; and transferring of permits from the County to the Contractor etc. Drainage - We understand that the County has adopted the use of the Urban Drainage and Flood Control District's Drainage Criteria with some modifications. Based on the size of the watersheds, we believe that CUHP and UDSWMM should be utilized to calculate peak discharges for local draingeways, but that for most of the main drainageways, flows will be taken from FEMA publications. For the preliminary design, these peak discharges will be used to size the future drainage structures crossing the roadway. All of the drainage structures will be presented in concept form on the preliminary design drawings. Water quality and detention criteria will also need to be discussed and evaluated as a part of the drainage design work. We believe that the roadside swabs will provide adequate water quality measures. We will review the FEMA Flood Insurance Rate Maps as needed. Although typically, the smaller tributaries are not included on the maps, the floodplain of the major drainageways such as the S. Platte River; Cache La Poudre; the Big Thompson River are FEMA administered which may require map revisions as a part of the design. We realize that one of the objectives may be to maintain the grade of the existing roadway as much as possible. This approachwill not only minimize fill in the floodplain but will also minimize impacts to. utilities, railroads, and irrigation ditches. However, it will be important to have a good understanding of the location and elevation of the FEMA administered floodplains to address potential floodpiain impacts during both preliminary and final design. For preliminary design, we will document the drainage approach and all calculations in a preliminary drainage study. The study will be completed in sufficient detail to be useful for the future roadway expansion and also be useful during final design. Geometrical Layout - After all of the existing information has been gathered , and reviewed, we will begin investigating horizontal and vertical alignments for roadway sections. In cases where the roadway has adequate longitudinal slopes equal to or greater than 0.5 percent, the existing grades will be maintained as much as possible to avoid significant cut and fill. Since roadside swales may be used to drain the -project, consideration will also be given to maintaining the flat sections of roadway as long as a 2 percent cross -slope can be maintained and the proposed swales can be designed to adequately convey storm water. The vertical changes will be kept to a minimum and coordinated with utility companies to avoid costly relocations. Much of the horizontal and vertical alignment will be dependent on working with the constraints represented by the railroad crossings, irrigation facilities, surrounding utilities, trees, and private improvements. For each alternative studied, the required ROW will be identified and consideration will be given to the ultimate lane configuration, which may be different than the pre -flood configuration. Preliminary Design Drawings —Some of the more important drawings to be included in the set will include a sheet presenting the typical roadway cross-section; demolitions plans; utility tabulations sheets showing the location of all existing utilities and any utility relocations; roadway plan and profiles; railroad crossing plans; and detailed roadway cross -sections. One sheet of the preliminary design drawings will be devoted to presentation of typical cross -sections including the pavement sections and subgrade treatment. For preliminary design the demolition plans will be limited to presenting only major existing facilities that must be removed and disposed of or relocated. The objective here is to identify large ticket items which will significantly affect construction costs in addition to facilities that will need to be relocated and will require significant coordination with other entities. Utility tabulations sheets will also be prepared for preliminary design. The first sheet in this section will include a tabulation of all ditches and utilities that must ultimately be relocated, improved or expanded. The tabulation will identify these utilities by roadway station and offset in addition to the agency responsible for the. relocation.. Subsequent sheets will present the roadway design, all exiting utilities, all pothole information, and all of the required ditch and utility relocations. Our roadway plan and profiles for preliminary design will present the final selected roadway layout along with critical horizontal geometry. Proposed grading will be presented along with enough call out notes necessary to identify the preliminary design components. Major irrigation ditch and drainage facilities will also be presented and called out by size and type on the preliminary plan and profile drawings. However, for the preliminary design, we do not anticipate completing the design for any ditch and utility relocations. We will supply CADD generated cross -sections at 100 -ft intervals in addition to critical sections at "locations where it may be necessary to present more detail for a clear understanding of how surrounding topography and existing improvements are affected by the preliminary design. It may also be necessary to present a few project 19 specific details to show how a particularly complicated area within the project needs to be addressed: One such area might be where roadside swales need to cross over or under an irrigation structure that is crossing the roadway. Opinion of Probable Project Costs - For the final selected alternative roadway and channel stabilization alignment, an opinion of probable construction, right -of —way acquisition, and final design costs will be prepared. The construction cost spreadsheet will include item numbers, a list of estimated quantities required to construct the project, unit prices for each of the estimated quantities, and the total price of each component of the project. Unit prices will be developed based on recently completed similar projects in the area. The unit prices will be discussed at progress meetings and adjusted to reflect the specific nature of this project until the County accepts the prices for use in the project. As a part of this effort we will solicit unit prices from the County which may be available from similar recently bid projects in Weld County. If this type of information is available, we will analyze the unit prices to be sure they are suitable for use on this project. Our project cost estimates will include an appropriate contingency in addition to the cost for engineering and property acquisition; Submittals, review, and revisions — In addition to the multiple copies of design drawings that will be submitted to the County for review, we will also submit copies of the drawings to all utility, irrigation, and railroad companies. We will set up and attend a project review meeting to discuss the County's comments regarding the preliminary design drawings. The meeting will be documented by ICON with minutes. All comments will be addressed and a final set of preliminary design drawings will be submitted to the County, and other affected agencies. Final Design Final design will commence immediately after the preliminary design review meeting minutes have been approved and the preliminary design has been accepted by the County. During this phase of the project, the preliminary design will be refined as necessary. The fact that the County can construct roadway improvements is a big advantage and as such, we believe it would be a-goodidea to request input from the very people who will be constructing the improvements. We have found that this sort of "design / build" approach can lead to a design that is ultimately more constructible endless expensive: During final design, in addition to adding detail to the preliminary design drawings, several additional 'sheets will be added to the set including a quantity tabulation sheet, a general information sheet, a soils information sheet, erosion and sediment control plans, drainage and irrigation design plans, striping and signing plans, and details. The final design will include preparation and/or modification of the drawings prepared during preliminary design to about 90 to 95 percent complete. As discussed, our design drawings will include a separate storm water management plan for use during construction. In addition, the Erosion and Sediment Control Plans will be accompanied by a Report. The SWMP drawings will be prepared to fit into the overall set but will also be completed in such a manner that they will stand alone for submittal to the State if required. The storm water management plans will include a cover sheet, plan sheets, all required notes, and detail sheets. If determined required, an NPDES permit for Storm Water Discharges Associated with Construction Activity will be prepared and submitted to State. Prior to submitting the final design drawings we will perform an independent in-house review. This review will be overseen by one of the principals and completed by staff members that have not been involved in the project. All dimensions and elevations presented on the drawings will be systematically checked and highlighted. The dimension and elevations will be checked by calculations and by scale. All of the notes will also be systematically read, checked, and highlighted. If discrepancies are uncovered, the drawings will be redlined and corrections made. All of the quantities will also be checked. Our final design also include submittals, review, and revisions. For this work we will follow a similar process as that outlined in the preliminary design included submitting copies of the drawings to all utility companies, irrigation, and railroad companies; setting up and attending a project review meeting to discuss the County's comments regarding the final design drawings; documenting the meeting with minutes; and final revisions to the Drawings. CONSTRUCTION RELATED SERVICES It is our understanding that construction administration services, including full time or part time construction observation may be required in addition to reviewing submittals and answering requests for information during construction as necessary. Since these services are difficult to predict, we typically suggest that they be completed on a time and materials basis that can include a not -to -exceed limit negotiated prior to the start of construction. We understand that the Couny may also elect to involve the selected Engineer in additional services during construction such as day-to-day observation. This work would also be completed based on a negotiated scope and associated fees prior to construction. EXHIBIT B Request for Proposals Engineering Services related to the September 2013 Flood Recovery I. Purpose ENGINEERING SERVICES FOR RFP #B1300201. The Weld County Public Works Department is requesting proposals for Engineering Services related to the September 2013 Flood Recovery. The requested services may include all or portions of the following: Topographic and ROW Surveying, Roadway or Bridge Repair Design Drawings, Structural Inspection, Hydrology and Hydraulic Analysis, Environmental Clearances, Preparation of Contract Bid Documents, and Construction Inspection. The projects will include 4 separate "Project Areas", defined by the various river corridors as shown on the attached maps. Each Project Area will include several "Sites" along each of the river corridors. There may be as many as 30 overall sites, each of which will require various engineering services as described above in order to restore the sites to pre -flood conditions and specify mitigation efforts that may prevent future flood damages. Maps of the Project Areas and an inventory of the original damage and emergency repairs to the Sites will be provided to the selected consultants. The Department intends to select one consultant for each Project Area to perform the needed work. NOTE: A site visit will be conducted to a single "Sample Site" which will represent the various improvements that may be required at the other sites. The consultant proposals should explain the various work items recommended for the Sample Site and include a breakout of consultant tasks and hours for the Sample Site. These may or may not apply to the other Sites in the Project Areas. II. Scope of Services Weld County is working with FEMA and FHWA specialists to verify damages to County assets that were damaged during recent flooding. Weld County is in need of professional engineering services which will generally consist of overall plan preparation related to flood repairs, specification preparation, and construction management services. Engineering services will comply with County, State, and Federal regulations. Time is of the essence as Weld County anticipates that high water during spring runoff could cause additional damage to project sites. The Public Works Department is looking for ways to shorten the design process and develop an abbreviated set of construction drawings. General engineering services will include: • Design Surveying (Could include temporary easement descriptions) • Hydrology & Hydraulic analysis required to document repair and mitigation efforts • Flood plain record research to validate flow rates that may be used • Preliminary roadway or bridge design, cost estimates, evaluations, plans, reports and coordination with staff and others • Final design, abbreviated plan set preparation, specifications and design details per CDOT Standards • Geotechnical & Drainage investigation/reports (if needed) • Potholing and utilities coordination & relocation • Environmental assessment study • Construction engineering and inspection services for Federal -funded construction projects as directed 1 NOTE: It is anticipated that the consultants will utilize as much existing floodplain mapping/data as is applicable, so that the time and costs required for any hydrology & hydraulic analysis, etc. will be minimized. A. General Project Description The initial emergency repairs necessary prior to opening the roads to traffic has been completed at all the sites. Engineering Services are now needed to reassess the sites to determine final improvements needed to return the sites to a stable permanent condition and indicate if mitigation efforts may prevent future flood damage. The anticipated repairs may include: Riprap armoring of bridge abutments, Wing wall/Railing/Deck Repairs, Placement of turf reinforcing mats, Temporary and Permanent Erosion Control, Seeding, Sod and asphalt patching/paving and striping as required. Although it is unlikely that construction at all the sites can be accomplished before the spring run-off begins (end of May), the goal will be to prioritize the sites and have bid documents ready to bid as soon as possible for the high priority sites. Weld County anticipates that an abbreviated set of plans for many sites will need to be bid ready by the end of February 2014. This may include small yet concise sets of plans and specifications. B. Project Requirements • Structures inspections and design engineering to repair flood damage to structures and roadways impacted by the September 2013 Flood • Report to the Public Works Department on repair needs within each specified project area • Completion of preliminary estimate of construction, engineering and permitting costs • Topographic and ROW Surveying necessary to complete the scope of services • Engineering design for repair and/or replacement of County road and bridge facilities designed in accordance with Weld County, CDOT and FEMA & FHWA standards and clearances • The consultants may be required to meet a DBE participation goal on the design work associated with the FHWA sites • Bid documents as directed for advertisement of improvements in a manner that meets the reimbursement requirements of either FEMA or FHWA • Environmental, historical, land use, and ROW clearances as required • The consultant will be required to provide construction administration and project management including submittal review, documentation, and continuous full time field inspection for the project per CDOT inspection guidelines. Any required materials testing not provided by the construction contractor will be arranged by the County. • The consultant may also be required to produce "as constructed" drawings at the completion of the project. Final drawings shall also be submitted on CD in PDF format. All material submitted at the completion of the project shall become property of Weld County. C.

(ICON) is pleased to submit this proposal to complete Engineering Services related to the 2013 Flood Recovery. Our Proposal for this project mirrors our earlier Qualifications Statement, with one noted addition. We have elected to augment our Team by including Infrastructure Engineers, Inc. to provide us with supplemental bridge inspection capabilities and additional Civil Engineering manpower. The local office of Infrastructure Engineers is managed by Jeff Anderson, PE, who in his 22 - years with CDOT formerly served for 11 -years in the CDOT bridge inspection division where he was the overall manager. Infrastructure Engineers brings nationally recognized expertize to our team, particularly in both above and below water structural inspection. Jeff has personally conducted inspection of many of the bridges / structures that will be addressed by this contract. As depicted on the cover shortly after the floods hit Colorado, ICON toured many of the damaged areas of Weld County including the selected sample site that is the subject of this proposal. Our tour included representatives from the County Public Works Department; and a representative from the Colorado Water Conservation Board (CWCB). During the first tour, we shot elevations of high water marks and extensively photographed damaged areas. The high water marks were then geo-referenced onto aerial photos taken both before and during the flood event. This gave our firm an appreciation for the tremendous amount of work faced by the County in your recovery efforts. ICON is well versed in recovery processes as members of our staff have worked on various disasters both nationally (throughout Colorado, and in other states including Alaska; Mississippi; Idaho and North Dakota) as well as internationally (Haiti and Mexico). As a result of the 2013 flood, we have worked on public infrastructure improvements for Aurora; Boulder; Estes Park and Fort Collins. We soon will be starting the post-floodplain delineation on the Little Thompson and Big Thompson in the Town of Milliken for the CWCB. ICON is the only Colorado based consulting engineering company that has served FEMA under direct contracts; and the CWCB for flood damage reports, floodplain delineations and grant funding for disaster mitigation. An additional plus that ICON brings to this project is our past working relationship with COOT, specially we have completed several projects that have involved reviews and/or funding through CDOT Region 4. Lastly, ICON has an impressive record for design and construction administration of roadways; culverts and bridges; and channel restoration. We would like the County to know that ICON has a great deal of interest in this project in that our firm is strategically structured to complete the anticipated work in a cost effective manner using our time tested ties with critical reviewing agencies. We have a well established Team of professionals having technical capabilities to complete the designs and our Team is immediately available. Our Proposal presents a summary of our relevant experience which should adequately demonstrate our competency. While we are respectfully humbled by the power and immense destructiveness of flood events, ICON is none -the -less confident in our abilities to restore a measure of order to the chaos that resulted from the 2013 floods. We look forward to working with the Public Works Department, CDOT, FEMA, FHWA, members of the public and other stakeholders on this important contract to maximize the use of federal funding in completing the design of the needed repairs.

Revegetation No 1 - 3 1.3.2 Standard Contract Review: We have reviewed the draft "Professional Services Agreement' that was included with the RFP and find that we can sign it without modification. We would, however, like to point out the following for your consideration: • Paragraph 4.A Compensation. The first sentence is an incomplete sentence and the intent is therefore not clear. • Paragraph 4.B. Mileage. ICON s intend on charging mileage at the current federally acceptable rate. • Paragraph 10.A. Insurance and Indemnification: Note that ICON's Professional Liability insurance is underwritten through Lloyd's of London and is rated by A.M. Best as A-15 thus exceeding the minimum requirements. We strongly suggest that the County enforce this requirement for all submitting firms. • Regarding compensation, given the unspecified nature of the work, and the fact that construction administration services may be included, this would make us believe that it would be inn everyone's best interest to make this a time and materials contract with a not -to -exceed limit. 8 SECTION 2 - PROJECT EXPERIENCE 2.1 SIMILAR PROJECTS IN LAST 5 YEARS: Roadways and major drainageways are often in conflict, and consequently design examples of improvements completed by ICON can be found throughout the Front Range. In this section we present a plan and profile of a project that clearly demonstrates ICONs comfort level in designing both roadway and flow conveyance structures. This project, Brantner Gulch at Holly Street, was completed for the City of Thornton in conjunction with the UDFCD, and was the recipient of the 2013 APWA Achievement Award and the CASFM 2013 Honor Award for Engineering Excellence. Overall management of this project was provided by Matt Ursetta and the primary design engineer was Cindy Rose. A flood event in Brantner Gulch overtopped the 5 -lane major arterial Holly Street resulting in the loss of the roadway embankment and loss of several utilities. Although the roadway was temporarily rebuilt by City crews, ICON was called upon to design a more "bullet-proof" solution for the road and hydraulic structure. e complexity=of some of our relevant project experience is demonstrated bye te photos To the left is a picture of Holly Street at Brans tnnec Gulch during,a minor flood event shortly before the roadway embankmentwas lost ICON was retained to design improvements tolthe roadway including a widening, vertical ,realignment and a 24ftwjdearchrculvertwith trail underpass.= - The picture below as taken duringthe'early par of the September 2013 -flood event which the new, improvements handled, witho�ut,,damagee Contact Pete+Brezall with Thornton. 2. In the past 5 -years, ICON Engineering has been awarded a total of 189 separate contracts with public sector cliental. Of these base contracts, a total of 11 are for continuing service or "On Call Contracts" that have resulted in an additional total of 184 Task Orders. Our assignments have included roadways, drainage related improvements, parks, other public sector infra -structure improvements. This means that in the past five years, ICON has been awarded a total of 317 projects that have a direct relevance to the Weld County's Flood Recovery Contract. Although ICON is a relatively small Colorado based consulting firm, we truly believe that there is not another engineering firm in the State of Colorado, regardless of size or national standing that has our focus and success in completing Public Sector contracts of the size envisioned by the County. This rather brash statement is further supported by these facts: • For Adams County, ICON has completed the design of over 25 city blocks of roadway and utility updates. As a result of this contract, ICON has been the County's most utilized consultant. • Outside of the Denver Metro area, the City of Fort Collins is widely accepted as an example of a premier Colorado entity with respect to management of public infrastructure. ICON is in our 16th year of service under an Open Ended Services Contract wherein we have performed literally dozens of planning and design projects. We are the only non -Fort Collins based firm to achieve this type of working relationship. • Year after year, ICON completes more work for the Urban Drainage and Flood Control District than any other consulting firm, and no other Colorado agency has the magnitude of drainage work as the UD&FCD. • ICON is the only firm Colorado based firm that has held an Open -Ended Study Contractor Agreement for with FEMA Region 8. ICON held this contract since 2001. Colorado is the most active of the six states comprising Region 8. 9 ICON Projects Get Built! We are proud of our ability to find solutions. Whatever the project needs, we find a way. Contact John Conn at Jefferson County to discuss the North Coon Creek at Miller Road Crossing shown here. This replaced an undersized culvert that had a history of overtopping with significant road damages and closures. Another successful project managed by Matt Ursetta. We have listed below a few of the projects -on which our Team assigned to this contract has worked together. Projects in red were completed in the past five years and that are particularly relevant to the Weld County work. We have selected these particular projects due to the relative complexity of the work, skill sets required and similarity to elements of the expected work. References for these projects are provided in Section 2.2.2. In addition, to these roadway projects, ICON has vast experience providing maintenance designs for hydraulic structures through our many years of service to the UDFCD under an on -call contract. This work typically involved designing repairs to major drainageway facilities that were damaged due to flood events. We are currently completing the design of projects involving hydrology/hydraulics, floodplain delineation, master planning, stream stabilization, bridge hydraulic sizing, utility design, pipelines, wetlands protection/enhancement, for public and private clients throughout Colorado.

Platte River Drop Structure Repair Multiple Locations, UDFCD - Cache la Poudre Drop Structure Repair, Fort Collins 10 Rapid Response Case Study: 2013 Flood Damage Mitigation - Alameda Boulevard In Aurora, Colorado One example of ICON's ability to react quickly to mitigate flood damage is demonstrated by our work for the City of Aurora at Alameda Boulevard near Expo Park. As a result of the September flood event, flows in Westerly Creek exceeded the capacity of a regional detention pond in Expo Park, overtopping a major arterial roadway. Additional flood flows were introduced to the area from the Highline Canal which also crosses Alameda in the same area. At this location, Alameda has a five travel lane configuration with attached sidewalks on both sides. Flows cascading over Alameda eroded the roadway embankment leaving a near vertical 15 -feet tall cut face that actually left the sidewalk suspended without any support. This forced the closing of the sidewalk and one lane of traffic. Situated across from a major public park and adjacent to a school, the damage created a very dangerous situation to both pedestrians and roadway users. On September 17, 2013, Aurora's Associate City Engineer Tom McMinimme contacted ICON with an emergency request to assist the City by designing improvements, and then selecting a construction contractor, negotiating a construction contract, and administering the construction. Wasting no time, ICON was able to facilitate the design and construction (using a modified design/build contract), going from initial notice of the problem to completion of the construction within 45 -days. Traffic control measures were removed on October 30th, and full use of the finished project started that day. The City estimated the project would cost in the vicinity of $200,000. ICON and our selected contractor were able to complete the design and construction at a cost of less than half the City estimate. This project was managed by Penn Gildersleeve directing ICON staff that will also be assigned to the Weld County flood recovery work.

Note that several of these were received as a result of our work related to the 2013 flooding in Colorado. Full copies can be provided if requested. "ICON has a long history of teaming with the UDFCD on a variety of project levels. Their strength comes from their experienced personnel, and ability to adapt their services to what each individual project requires. Their technical knowledge combined with their strong leadership skills makes ICON a strong choice." David Bennetts, PE, CFM Manager, Design, Construction and Maintenance Program, Urban Drainage and Flood Control District "Our flood mitigation project was a very successful project for the City of Grand Junction and would not have been possible without ICON's diligent coordination with FEMA and their rigorous design efforts. ICON provided the City with a quality work product. ICON staff was always responsive to our needs and dealt with all City staff in a very professional manner." Bret Guillory, PE, CFM, Utility Engineer, City of Grand Junction "In all aspects of their work, the staff of ICON Engineering has shown remarkable dedication to client satisfaction. I have experienced situations in several of our projects when unforeseen circumstances could have resulted in significant scheduling delays and cost overruns. In each and every case, ICON demonstrated creativity, hard work, and determination that prevented these situations from escalating. They have demonstrated unmatched technical vision to go along with their leadership and reliability." Kevin Houck Flood Control and Floodplain Management Section Colorado Water Conservation Board "A sanitary sewer encasement had become exposed in the bed of Boulder Creek in the City of Boulder near the Humane Society at 55th and Pearl Parkway. We hired ICON to assist us with design of a drop structure and bank stabilization to raise the creek and protect this sanitary sewer. At the request of the City Open Space staff, ICON incorporated a non -species specific fish passage section into a portion of the drop structure. The fish passage will convey the low flows. A 5 -foot deep pool at the downstream end gives fish a refuge area prior to attempting the swim upstream. ICON did an excellent job on this project, adapting to the changing needs of the project sponsors, and providing a design that blended in well within the context of the site, and was easily constructed. I would not hesitate to use them again for a similar project."' Dave Skuodas, PE, Sr. Engineer, Construction and Maintenance Program, Urban Drainage and Flood Control District "Because of the 2013 flooding, we have just completed documenting the flooding, limits alongall of our 15 drainageways - a monumental task that could not have been done without the help of ICON. You guys are rock stars! ` Kurt Baurer, Flood Control and Floodplain Management Section City of Boulder "I would like to personally thank you for all the support ICON Engineering has offered the Town of Estes Park through Terry Martin and Craig Jacobson.

That ICON is aware of, the County has awarded: 5 contracts for bridge repairs totaling over $4.2 million; 1 contract for roadway repairs for $146,000; and a quantities based contract for debris removal. A lot of work remains to be done. At this time, the County is seeking to retain four consultants to provide engineering design, surveying, plan preparation and construction management services to assist the County in narrowing the gap between the damage and repaired infrastructure. The successful consultants will be assigned to multiple sites on one of four major drainageways. Although subject to change, it is anticipated that there will be about 10 sites on the Big Dry / Little Dry Basin (No FHWA Bridges); 8 sites on the Big Thompson Basin (4 FHWA Bridges); 6 sites on the Boulder / St. Vrain basin (1 FHWA Bridge); and 6 sites on the South Platte River (2 FHWA Bridges). To aid the County in selecting consultants, one sample site has been selected and the County requires a detailed q scope of services along with an anticipated range of consultant hours for this one site. The site selected for further analysis is the FHWA Bridge WEL053.0-058.0A which carries County Road 53 over the South Platte River. The cover to this submittal shows superimposed images of this area before and during the flood event, along with several photos taken by ICON staff during a tour of the damaged areas on September 19, 2013, ICON toured many of the flood damaged areas in Weld County along with representatives of the County and the CWCB, taking pictures and surveying high water marks. These pictures and survey points were then geo-referenced onto the above referenced aerial photos such that real field data and detailed photographs (samples below) are also available. This allows geo- referencing other data layers such as effective FEMA DFIRM mapping and FIS reports. When FEMA sponsored 1 - foot contour interval mapping of the flood impacted S. Platte Corridor and major tributaries is made available, we will add this to our data layer, thereby building a complete spatial database of the 2013 flood event. The sample site was completely inundated by the 2013 flood waters, with a floodplain width of approximately 2200 feet extending from north of County Road 388 to within about 800 feet of County Road 58. The bridge was overtopped by several feet, causing extensive damage to the roadway approaches, utilities and local drainage facilities. This bridge was constructed in 1958 and although hydraulically undersized, it survived both the 1965 flood and the 2013 flood. Although exhibiting signs of damage and stress from age, after the roadway was remedially repaired, the bridge was put back into service. The bridge is constructed with an asphalt wearing surface over a concrete deck composed of 4 girders. The girders are set on pier caps which extend out from solid wall concrete piers. There are a total of 13 spans of 50 -feet each skewed approximately 30 -degrees to the two lane 28 -feet wide travel surface. Height from the top of the pier caps to the water surface is variable but less than 10 -feet. At the time of the site visit associated with the proposal, the water was seasonally quite high with flow in all spans at a depth of 3.7 -feet below the bottom of the pier caps. It is noted that the Bridge Inspection dated 5/7/12 appraised the bridge as being scour critical 3 -Unstable. The high water at the time of the site visit precluded judgment of the scour, however, up to 4 -feet of scour had been reported from the 2010 routine inspection to the 2012 inspections, at Piers 4 and 11 even prior to the 2013 flood event. As this was a Presidentially Declared Disaster, Federal funding through the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA); FEMA; and/or the Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRSC) may be utilized thereby requiring meeting the various requirements of the applicable agency. At a minimum, this may include meeting requirements of FHWA- 1273, and CDOT DBE requirements (CDOT Form 1331). Specific needs for each site will vary, primarily related to funding source, however for the W EL053.0-0.58.0A site, the scope of work can be expected to include: • Processing Applicable Federal Funding Forms 15 • Inspection / Evaluation Of Damaged Infrastructure • Design Of Highway Bridge / Structure Improvements • Road And Intersection Improvements • Analysis Of Hydrology And Hydraulics For Design Purposes • Quantity Takeoffs And Cost Estimates • Bid Documents And Specifications • Surveying Services Including Site Surveys, Staking; Legal Descriptions For ROW • Plan Drawing Preparation • Obtaining Required Environmental, Historical And Other Permits • Traffic Control Engineering Services • Construction Management / Observation Obviously, close coordination with the County staff will be required in order to produce the conceptual, preliminary, and final plans. .. _........ This will include preparing design schedules; attending meetings (possibility to include public meetings as needed); facilitating County plan reviews. Plan documents will include general layouts, structural details, tabulation of quantities; plan views, profile views, cross sections, general notes, construction notes and details. Roadway geometry and intersection alignments will also be included. 3.2 SAMPLE SITE CRITICAL ISSUES First and foremost is making sure that the final product and the steps taken to reach that end all follow required FEMA and FHWA criteria to make sure that funding eligibility is maintained. Proper documentation must be strongly enforced in order to assure funding compliance. Secondly, meeting project schedules is very important. There are currently many declared national disasters, and FEMA has shown very little give in meeting delivery dates once they are contracted. Additional issues include: • This is a heavily traveled roadway and any construction work will require a carefully considered traffic control plan. • Localized scour at the piers may have occurred, however the depth of water did not allow evaluating this. It is expected that the water level will recede as we go into winter months, however, consideration will be given to the need for underwater inspection. • Based on pictures taken from previous inspections, prior to the flood, the bridge showed signs of deteriorated concrete, spelling, cracks and exposed reinforcement. While not necessarily fatal flaws to the structure, concurrence from FEMA / FHWA will need to be obtained prior to initiating repairs to pre -flood structural issues as to source of funding. Separating pre and post flood damage may be necessary. • This structure was overtopped and has high potential for scour, both general and local. The high potential for scour at the bridge site exists due to the channel consisting generally of sandy material. Heavy debris, previously reported, has the potential to cause both local and general scour within the channel. Up to four feet of scour had already been reported, from the 2010 routine inspection to the 2012 inspection, at Piers 4 and 11, even before the September flooding event. The spur dyke at Abutment 14, which was constructed in 1998, was also reported as being mostly washed away before the flooding event. Existing scour assessment is required, consisting of hands-on inspections at all substructure units. Underwater inspections will be used, if necessary, to determine the extent of any scour at the bridge site. If water depths are greater than three feet, the bridge will be reported to CDOT for addition to the list of underwater structures to be inspected every four years under CDOT's underwater bridge inspection contract, the next one starting in 2014. • Structure stability should be analyzed to ensure that the bridge is safe to carry design loadings. Though the structure is supported on a deep foundation, stability can be compromised if unbraced pile lengths increase slenderness effects to reduce pile load -bearing capacities. • If piles are exposed and structural capacity found to be effected by scour, repairs will be designed to add bracing to the piles before filling scour holes and designing scour prevention strategies, such as the proper sizing of rip rap, to resist design flooding events. 3.3 ACCELERATED SCHEDULE SUGGESTIONS When the 2013 floods damaged Alameda Boulevard in Aurora, the City contacted ICON with the instructions that we were to design improvements, select a contractor of our own choosing, negotiate a fair construction cost, and make a recommendation to the City for award. Calling upon our strong relationships with contractors that we know that specialize in flood damage remediation, ICON was able to accomplish this and more. The design and construction of improvements to rebuild the roadway embankment, install exposed utilities, remove and replace sidewalk and gutter and put the road back into full use were accomplished at half the City estimated cost in a total of 45 days from ICON 16 being informed there was an issue until completion of construction. All this was made possible using a combination of: 1.) using standard details and specifications where possible; 2.) abbreviated technical specifications were added onto the drawings; 3.) the City trusted ICON to do the right thing on behalf of the City; 4.) the City's contracting officers were on board with the concept of using modified design build contracts (the City signed separate contracts with both ICON and the Contractor). Having a collaborative arrangement with a well -qualified construction contractor can certainly accelerate projects in that constructability issues are typically ironed out in the design process. Although the foregoing may not be applicable to all of the potential sites under the four anticipated contracts, we believe that following this pattern will achieve a desirable accelerated schedule. 3.4 MANAGEMENT APPROACH ICON will serve as the primary county contact and all communication will go through ICON. Sub -consultants will be asked to sign agreements with ICON referencing terms of the base agreement. Separate job numbers and invoicing will be completed for each site to keep funding issues separate. The Principal -In -Charge will be responsible for all sites, and Cindy Rose will be the Primary Project Manager to coordinate all sites, but depending on the drainageway assigned, and the specific schedule requirements, ICON may assign additional Site Specific Project Managers. 3.5 TECHNICAL APPROACH PRELIMINARY DESIGN Meetings and Coordination - Communication with the County and the surrounding property owners is a key component to a successful project. As we see it, ICON will need to integrate closely with the County and become an extension of the County's staff. Accordingly we will allocate adequate time in our scope to meet with the County multiple times during the project. The meetings will include a kickoff / site visit meeting; progress meetings; and 2 CDOT review meetings to discuss the County's comments on the preliminary and final designs. The kick-off meeting and detailed site visit with the project sponsors will help the team to get a clear understanding of the constraints and opportunities related to the project site. We will photo document the existing conditions within the project site and prepare a map that presents the location of the photographs. Copies of the photographs and display map will be supplied to the County. We understand that the County uses CDOT Criteria with regards to roadway design. Prior to the kick-off meeting we will develop a list of roadway design criteria from both CDOT and AASHTO. The list will be submitted to the County's design team for review and comment, along with a conceptual level analysis (based on available mapping) of how the existing roadway and/or structure meets or violates this criteria. Our goal here is to come to an agreement with Weld County on the listed roadway design and construction criteria prior to beginning any work. Right-of-way and Easement — Based upon our cursory investigations, we believe that two temporary construction easements may be required. For both the preliminary design and the final design we will identify required ROW and easements. We will utilize County prepared ROW maps to develop drawings that present the property acquisition requirements. These drawings will present the dimensions and areas of each required parcel along with the property owner's names. Typically, CDOT and the FHWA require resolution of all property ownership issues prior to approval of projects for bidding. Utility Investigations — It appears that there are no "wet" utilities at this site, and that the location of the formerly buried NORAD Fiber Optics line is easily discernible. Typically, we contact all of the utility and ditch companies to obtain new utility maps. The maps will be used to create an existing conditions utility drawing. As is usually the case, many of the available utility maps are only conceptual in nature and only indicate the presence of utilities, but not a precise location. Therefore, we may need to send a utility locating company to the site to paint the location of the utilities. We will coordinate this effort with the County so that full surveys can be made of the location of the utility paint marks. We will utilize this survey information to fine tune the location of the utilities in the base mapping. The updated utility map will be sent to all of the utility and ditch companies requesting their review and asking them if they know of any proposed utilities that might be constructed in the limits of the project. Based on the utility company's comments, we will finalize the utility drawings for use during the remainder of the project. Potholes — For this site we do not envision the need for potholes to locate utilities. Surveying, Mapping and Property Ownership — We anticipate obtaining 1 -ft LiDAR based mapping (post -flood) from the CWCB. This base mapping will be updated using field surveys to confirm locations along each abutment and to profile edge of asphalt along all both sides of the roadways extending out from the bridge at least as far as the flood high water mark established by ICON during prior surveys. We will format the electronic files for use during design. We have included time in our proposal to identify right-of-way and easement requirements as discussed 17 above. During the course of the design there will be additional surveying required to define the locations and elevations of existing improvements. Geotechnical Investigation —Geotechnical services at this site may not be required; however Kumar will assist the team by providing pavement design recommendations. Bridge / Roadway Approach - Available inspection data will be reviewed and utilized in the determination of the type of improvements to be designed. If post -flood inspections have not yet been performed, San Engineering's certified Bridge Inspectors will complete thorough condition assessments of the structures, and an inspection report prepared. San Engineering has a total of B staff members available for field inspections, 2 of whom are Certified Bridge Inspection Team Leaders. A critical element of the inspections will be the evaluation of existing and potential scour conditions. Assessment in the field will not be limited to visual assessment, but will include probing of areas around bridge foundations so as not to overlook potential problem areas. The floods may have caused "repairable" damage to the structures, while leaving the major structural elements intact. Examples of repairable damage include damaged bridge rails and approach guardrails, riprap washout, approach fill removal and scour. Such damage will be remedied by designing long-term retrofits and repairs. This will be an opportunity to improve the bridges to conditions better than pre -flood conditions. For example, sub -standard bridge rails damaged by the flood can be replaced with code -compliant bridge rails. Using the sketches and dimensional info from previous inspections, we can begin setting up plans for bridge repairs, concurrently with the field inspection and inspection report work. This will be important in order to meet the aggressive schedule requirements. Although not anticipated for the Sample Site, in the event a bridge structure needs to be replaced, the process will begin with the preparation of a Structure Selection report. The Structure Selection report is not intended to be an extensive elaborate study. Rather, it will present a clear concise rationale for the most appropriate bridge configuration based on engineer's cost estimates, and input and discussions with the County and Design Team. Our goal is to provide Weld County with the confidence that the most cost-effective and appropriate bridge design is being pursued. The level of detail in the report will depend partially on requirements from funding sources. At a minimum, the report will contain a brief discussion and explanation of each alternative evaluated, engineer's cost estimates of each alternative, a rationale for the recommended alternative, and a General Layout (bridge plan, elevation, and typical section) of the selected design. Structural calculations will be completed as required to determine the basic configuration and sizing of the major structural elements of the preferred alternative. Unique to this contract is the need for rapid replacement of damaged structures. We recognize that there are residents who have experienced major inconveniences due to loss of access from the floods, and we do not want to unnecessarily prolong further road closures. Traffic Control during construction may need to include complete road closure and/or partial lane closure. Detour routes will need to be cognizant of other construction work at other nearby sites. Although perhaps not applicable to the Sample Site, the selection of structure type will heavily consider the use of precast and/or prefabricated structures. Upon selection and approval of the preferred alternatives, the Engineer will proceed with final design calculations and preparation of the bridge construction drawings. Structural designs will be based on AASHTO LRFD Design Specifications, as well as the CDOT Bridge Design Guide and applicable CDOT design memoranda. The structural calculations will take into account the effects of vehicular live loads, dead loads, stream flow loads, wind loads and thermal loads. Initiate Permits - During the Pre -design Phase, we will develop a list of potential permits required by Weld County, (or adjoining county if needed) and the State Department of Public Health, CDOT, and the US Army Corp of Engineers. Permit application forms will be obtained and a memo will be prepared to outline specific details related to each permit such as the time to obtain the permit, submittal requirement including drawings and reports, and transferring of permits from the County to the Contractor etc. Drainage - We understand that the County has adopted the use of the Urban Drainage and Flood Control District's Drainage Criteria with some modifications. Based on the size of the watersheds, we believe that CUHP and UDSWMM should be utilized to calculate peak discharges for local drainageways, but that for most of the main drainageways, flows will be taken from FEMA publications. For the preliminary design, these peak discharges will be used to size the future drainage structures crossing the roadway. All of the drainage structures will be presented in concept form on the preliminary design drawings. Water quality and detention criteria will also need to be discussed and evaluated as a part of the drainage design work. We believe that the roadside swales will provide adequate water quality measures. We will review the FEMA Flood Insurance Rate Maps as needed. Although typically, the smaller tributaries are not included on the maps, the floodplain of the major drainageways such as the S. Platte River; Cache La Poudre; the Big Thompson River are FEMA administered which may require map revisions as a part of the 18 design. We realize that one of the objectives may be to maintain the grade of the existing roadway as much as possible. This approach will not only minimize fill in the floodplain but will also minimize impacts to utilities and local drainage swales / ditches. It will be important to have a good understanding of the location and elevation of the FEMA administered floodplains to address potential floodplain impacts during both preliminary and final design. For preliminary design, we will document the drainage approach and all calculations in a preliminary drainage study. Improvement Layout — Unless an unlikely complete redesign of the bridge is undertaken, the horizontal and vertical locations of the roadway are fairly fixed, however construction access and staging areas will need to be worked out. Again, assuming that the bridge is to remain in place, the hydraulic capacity will not be significantly changed, and the bridge will be subject to overtopping in future major flood events. In order to minimize future damage to the roadways, we will anticipate subsequent overtopping, and therefore the need to stabilize and armor particularly the downstream roadway edges. ICON has utilized concrete paved shoulders, geotextile reinforcement, and bio- engineering solutions. Preliminary Design Drawings — The bridge abutment appears to have sustained some loss of riprap protection during the flood, exposing the earth embankment and pile foundations. What riprap that is left is too steep and unstable. The exposed caissons appear to be of relatively small diameter and if the condition is neglected and additional scour occurs, but bridge foundations could become destabilized. The abutments are founded on either heavy pipe piles or, more likely, drilled concrete shafts. Although the wing walls look bad because there is nothing underneath them, they appear to be functioning as designed without current negative affect to the stability of the structure. The wing walls typically cantilever off the main supporting portion of the abutment. Additional runoff events will likely result in additional loss of embankment which could in turn lead to settlement or complete loss again of approach roadways. The simplest and most effective repair will be the placement of heavy riprap in front of the abutment and wingwalls. The missing fill needs to be replaced and protected with properly sized riprap. The riprap should be "keyed" in to the channel at a depth and diameter to resist calculated velocities. In addition to the riprap protection, some of the more important drawings to be included in the set will include a sheet presenting the typical roadway cross-section, including embankment erosion protection. Unless substantial hydraulic capacity is added to the bridge (unlikely) the bridge may be overtopped by future events, but design improvements can be made to limit roadway damage from erosive events. It is also recognized that there is some value in saving the bridge from catastrophic failure by allowing a planned "fuseplug" failure to the roadway. Opinion of Probable Project Costs - For the final selected alternative roadway and channel stabilization alignment, an opinion of probable construction, right-of—way acquisition, and final design costs will be prepared. The construction cost spreadsheet will include item numbers, a list of estimated quantities required to construct the project, unit prices for each of the estimated quantities, and the total price of each component of the project. Unit prices will be developed based on recently completed similar projects in the area. The unit prices will be discussed at progress meetings and adjusted to reflect the specific nature of this project with concurrence with the County for use in the project. As a part of this effort we will solicit unit prices from Contractors we have worked with in the area. Our project cost estimates will include an appropriate contingency. Submittals, review, and revisions — In addition to the multiple copies of design drawings that will be submitted to the County for review, we will also submit copies of the drawings to all utility, irrigation, and other stakeholders. We will set up and attend a project review meeting to discuss CDOT and the County's comments regarding the preliminary design drawings. The meeting will be documented by ICON with minutes. All comments will be addressed and a final set of preliminary design drawings will be submitted to the County, and other affected agencies. Final Design - Final design will commence immediately after the preliminary design review meeting minutes have been approved and the preliminary design has been accepted by the County. During this phase of the project, the preliminary design will be refined as necessary. The fact that the County can construct roadway improvements is a big advantage and as such, we believe it would be a good idea to request input from the very people who may be constructing the improvements. We have found that this sort of "design / build" approach can lead to a design that is ultimately more constructible and less expensive. During final design, in addition to adding detail to the preliminary design drawings, several additional sheets will be added to the set including a quantity tabulation sheet, a general information sheet, a soils information sheet, erosion and sediment control plans, drainage and irrigation design plans, striping and signing plans, and details. The final design will include preparation and/or modification of the drawings prepared during preliminary design to about 90 to 95 percent complete, 19 Our design drawings will include a separate storm water management plan for use during construction. In addition, the Erosion and Sediment Control Plans will be accompanied by a Report. The SWMP drawings will be prepared to fit into the overall set but will also be completed in such a manner that they will stand alone for submittal to the State if required. The storm water management plans will include a cover sheet, plan sheets, all required notes, and detail sheets. If determined required, an NPDES permit for Storm Water Discharges Associated with Construction Activity will be prepared and submitted to the State. Prior to submitting the final construction drawings we will perform an independent in-house review. This review will be overseen by one of the principals and completed by staff members that have not been involved in the project. All dimensions and elevations presented on the drawings will be systematically checked and highlighted. The dimension and elevations will be checked by calculations and by scale. All of the notes will also be systematically read, checked, and highlighted. If discrepancies are uncovered, the drawings will be redlined and corrections made. All of the quantities will also be rechecked. Our final design includes submittals, review, and revisions. For this work we will follow a similar process as that outlined in the preliminary design included submitting copies of the drawings to all utility companies, and stakeholders; setting up and attending a project review meeting to discuss the County's comments regarding the final design drawings; documenting the meetings; and final revisions to the Drawings. CONSTRUCTION RELATED SERVICES - It is our understanding that construction administration services, including full time or part time construction observation may be required in addition to reviewing submittals and answering requests for information during construction as necessary. Since these services are difficult to predict prior to design, we typically suggest that they be completed on a time and materials basis that can include a not -to -exceed limit negotiated prior to the start of construction. This work would also be completed based on a negotiated scope and associated fees prior to construction. 3.6 SAMPLE SITE RANGE OF HOURS ESTIMATE (Assumes Minimal Structural Design Required) The table below provides a rough estimate of total hours for anticipated services assuming no underwater inspection is required and that the bridge is found to be essentially structurally sound. Services during construction include full time inspection for an assumed 70 to 90 day construction period. Note that this estimate is based on a stand-alone project and that efficiencies may be obtained by awarding concurrent work at other sites.

There is no information on either of these specified in the RFQ document itself. Which is the preferred method of delivery of our qualifications? 2) If hardcopies are desired, how many copies will be needed for evaluation? ANSWER: The preferred method of submittal from the consultants for RFQ #B1300201 is to deliver five (5) hard copies of their submittal to the Weld County Purchasing Department by the bid due date. (Some vendors were told that an email version would be okay. The Public Works Dept forgot to put that in their bid/RFQ. 3) Regarding the attached RFQ, will Weld County be soliciting separate Geotechnical services necessary for these repairs, doing them in house, or should we add this scope to our SOQ? And if it does need to be included should we include design and testing services or design only? ANSWER We don't anticipate any geotechnical services related to design of the proposed flood recovery improvements. We do anticipate some geotechnical testing services (quality control testing) related to the construction of the proposed flood recovery improvements. ***"Consultants shall limit the total length of their submittal to a maximum of 20 pages, excluding cover and divider. Proposals greater than 20 pages will be rejected" - this means everything you want to include in your RFQ shall be no more than 20 pages. **** cQ #`81300281`;` 1,.2.9441 Weld County Purchasing ,Department 1150 0" Street, .13990114T:= Greeley;'Coford 80631:'' Prepareed by:.' u$to Meridian.

CDOT is in the process of respond- ing to catastrophic floods that destroyed or damaged more than 200 miles of roadway and 50 bridges in September. Mel Dahlberg, PE, working at the la is a team member on one of the two Assessment/ Scoping Teams that are responsible for the following: • Conducting Site Inspections / Assessments & Validations of roadway damage • Documenting historic conditions of the facilities (pre -disaster, post - disaster, post -repair) • Develop Cost Estimates for Repairs • Assess Potential Betterment Opportunities • Develop Detailed Damage Inspection Report (DDIRs for FHWA and CDOT) Working in the ICC has given Mel the unique knowl- edge and COOT ICC contacts that will be of benefit to Weld County with its flood recovery needs. Village of Hatch Flooding Various communities in Southern New Mexico were hit hard by flooding in the summer of 2006. The Village of Hatch, located 42 miles North of Las Cruces, was com- pletely overtaken by flood waters on August 15. The community was declared a disaster area by Governor Richardson and FEMA was on site for evaluation and assistance. Due to heavy rains to the west, arroyos were running at full capacity when a levee broke and engulfed the Village in water, sand, silt and debris. The Village of Hatch is a long-time client of BHI and our Las Cruces office has been responsible for the majority of utilities and civil engineering within the Village. Within hours of the report of flooding, BHI staff was on the scene to make an initial site investi- gation and assess the status of roadway and drainage facilities, and water, sewer, and gas utilities. BHI provided aerial photogra- phy mapping of the area for use in rescue and evacuation operations by the State Police, Department of Transportation, US Border Patrol, American Red Cross, and New Mexico National Guard. With large printed images of the area, the logistics of emergency operations could be communicated to the various agencies involved. Emergency response was handled by Hatch Police, Dona Ana County Sheriffs Department and National Guard personnel. After the flood waters receded, the traveling public was left with unraveled pavements, potholes, silt -cov- ered sidewalks, and many impassable streets. As an emergency situation prevailed, FEMA contributed over $450,000 in Category C Roads and Bridges public assis- tance to the repair. Combined with support from the State of New Mexico -through additional CDBG Grants, and other state funds, and direct appropriations from the State Finance Authority -the project was ultimately funded for over $2.6 million. 112 Engineering Services Related to the 2013 Flood Recovery Bohannan A Huston PERFORMANCE ON SIMILAR PROJECTS BHI. provided design and construction services for the removal and replacement or repaving of over 50,000 square yards of roadways as well as sidewalks, curb and gutter,and driveways. Many streets were completely . reconstructed, changing the elevation of the finished grade to allow positive drainage, to an existing storm drain system or incorporating: new storm drains with drop inlets and collection pipes when feasible. BHI's active management of the project made it possible to incorporate additional street designs into the project allowing construction to continue without any suspensions. This resulted innot only time but also cost savings for the Village During the months following the flooding, as the residents of Hatch began the long and difficult task of recovery, BHI continued to support the community. Sand Creek Confluence As part of the 2013 Emergency Flood Service Response, BHI was respon- sible for providing Land Surveying and mapping for engineering design needed to develop plan documents to reconstruct the severely devastated area to pre -flood condition. The primary area of focus was the confluence of Sand: Creek with the South Platte River just south ,of the Clear Creek / South. Platte River confkience. BHI established horizontal and vertical survey control network based on the Adams.CountySurvey Control network and com- pleted a detailed engineering design survey for hydrau- lic and scour analysis, inclusive of preparing a 1 foot contour interval base file drawing with appropriate spot elevations, site improvements and underground utility data. The project required an aggressive schedule. The BHI survey team mobilized, established survey control, completed the engineering design survey, developed the base mapping, performed our internal quality control / quality analysis, and made the final delivery within five days of our Notice to Proceed. Longmont Dam Road and Ralph Price Reservoir Access Road The City of Longmont Public Works and Natural Resources Department is working with Bohannan Huston, Inc. for design services for the Longmont Dam Road repair. The City looks to repair damaged City infrastructure that was impacted during the 2013 Flood, and as part of this effort, City staff has identi- fied critical improvements needed to Longmont Dam Road, Longmont Reservoir, and Ralph Price Reservoir Spillway Access Road. Longmont Dam Road provides access to Longmont Reservoir and Ralph Price Reservoir which serve as the primary raw water supply for the City. This project addresses an immediate need to restore permanent access to these reservoirs as Longmont Reservoir serves as the diversion structure to deliver raw water to the Engineering Services Related to the 2013 Flood Recovery I13 Bohannan A Huston PERFORMANCE ON SIMILAR PROJECTS City. To restore the functions of this City infrastructure prior to spring runoff and the high demand water season, the BHI team has allocated the appropriate resources to address this critical schedule component of the Project. For this project, Bohannan Huston, Inc. is providing engineering services for roadway design to reconstruct Longmont Dam Road to its pre -flood condition including surveying, research, analysis, design, geotechnical inves- tigation, specification preparation, utility coordination, reservoir dredging; permitting assistance, and other associated engineering work. WCR 49 Road Extension from SH 34 to WCR 60.5 BHI teamed. with Atkins North America to extend Weld County Road 49 from State Highway 34 on the south to East 8th Street on: the north,:a distance of approximately three miles. The design includes accom- modation for a two-lane interim section and a four - lane ultimate roadway. The project will construct a new two-lane bridge over the Cache La Poudre River and.a new four -lane. bridge.. crossing of the South Platte River. The predominantly virgin alignment bisects severaffarmed parcels; four major irrigation canals; and numerous irrigation laterals. - The BHI project role is to provide land surveying services for the overall project, even as civil engi- neering services for design of culvert crossings for the Patterson Ditch, the Ogilvy Ditch, and. the Plumb Ditch major irrigation canals. In addition, BHI will. prepare roadway storm drainage plans and reports for the southern half of the roadway alignment and coordinate with the irrigation companies to relocate and reconfigure irrigation facilities for farmed parcels affected by the new roadway alignment, including drainage and storm sewer, land surveying, intersection grading, and detailed coordination with the County and irrigation companies. La Plata, CO CR 527 Beaver Creek Bridge Replacement This project replaces an insufficient bridge on La Plata County Road 527 over Beaver Creek located near Bayfield, CO. The Beaver Creek bridge replacement spans an active mountain stream. The existing bridge was a one -lane bridge on a gravel road and is approximately 35 ft long, The crossing accommodates two 1.2 -ft lanes and 4 -ft shoulders. Bill provided a hydrologic analysis.ofthe drainage basin (approximately 57 square miles) to compute the storm runoff peak flow rate at the bridge for the 50- and 100 -year events. BHl also performed a hydraulic analysis to determine the flow depth, scour potential, and local drainage at the crossing. BHI prepared the preliminary and final drainage reports, and prepared the structure selection report with the goal of identifying a pre -manufactured cross- ing structure that precluded a detailed final design of a site -specific structure. Engineering Services Related to the 2013 Flood Recovery - 114 Bohannan A Huston PERFORMANCE ON SIMILAR PROJECTS SH 14 Bridge and Road Replacement over the Poudre River Bill provided design services to CDOT Region 4; working side -by -side with CDOT staff engineers to provide InRoads expertise and roadway approach _. support through final design. For this bridge and road replacement project over the Poudre River, BHI's- scope of work involved horizontal and vertical geometries of SH 14, design, for the reconstruction of three access roads for the.. wastewater treatment plant, InRoads modeling, plan preparation, and public meeting graphics. Not onlydoesthis project integrate various project elements from different CDOT dis- ciplines, it also required considerable coordination with Local Governments and the Colorado Bridge Enterprise. The existing pre -fabricated pedestrian bridge will be relocated during construction to another location. Pedestrians will be able to cross the new bridge using a sidewalk to be included on the new bridge deck. CR 250/251 Roadway and Intersection improvements Coordinating with the City of Durango and La Plata County, the project design scope includes one -quarter mile of County Road 250 and a traffic signal design for the County Road 251 and 250 intersection. BHI worked with several vertical and horizontal alignments in order to 'fit' the desired roadway section within the existing right-of-way. Where needed, the design team also. prepared plans for a structural retaining wall, and also worked to coordinate easement and right-of-way acquisitions from several parcels. Specific scope items include the preparation concept plans, preliminary and final design documents with associated cost estimates and specifications. The project also incorporates the design of multi -use trans- portation facilities, a transit stop, stormwater drainage, storm sewer, retaining wall structural designs, a traffic study, and a traffic signal. As part of the concept designs for the intersection, BHI developed a roundabout option for stakeholder review and we prepared materials for presentation at a public meeting on the project and answered inquiries regarding the design. Engineering Services Related to the 2013 Flood Recovery I15 PROJECT APPROACH Managing engineering contracts with numerous gov- ernments, municipalities and agencies across the Front Range, Bohannan Huston, Inc. (BHI) is accustomed to responding quickly and professionally to address the infrastructure needs of the community. Our team is experienced with executing projects in both rural and urban settings by recognizing diverse regional condi- tions such as traffic volumes in the area, irrigation and agricultural issues of the rural setting, COOT issues (e.g., safety hazard elimination, access procedures, the proj- ect development process, etc.), and the need to proac- tively engage with internal and external stakeholders. Our ability to respond is based upon more than just technical expertise. It rests in our ability to form close working relationships with the client that can form the basis for quick response, "effective communication, and precise understanding of project goals and require- ments. We also understand that each engineering assignment brings its own: unique: challenges. No two projects are the same. Engineering design criteria and standards can easily be applied to most situations to provide viable solutions; however, more and more, project success is not defined by engineering solutions alone. Environmental clearances and public involve- ment are often key to a project, especially those with state and federal funding. Impacts to right-of-way must alsobe identified early and minimized if at all possible to streamline a project's implementation and minimize potential litigation. Bill recognizes the importance of considering these project development elements early, and we have in-house specialists and subconsultant partners who are well versed in steering projects to success. Our team members have extensive experience developing projects similar in scope to the projects the County has undertaken in recent years.

We are familiar with earthquake load and soil -structure interaction effects, blast loading, and associated design proce- dures. We also have knowledge of anti -terrorism and force protection design including progressive collapse prevention design. We are also versed in special inspec- tion including quality assurance for seismic resistance and wind requirements. Engineering Services Related to the 2013 Flood Recovery 117 PROJECT APPROACH Our team has recently,prepared numerous structural selection reports Including reports for'approval by COOT: if bridge inspections and ratings are needed, the design team will inspect and document a bridge's condi- tion, make recomniendations-foY repair or maintenance, and provide an estimate of the cost of the necessary repairs. All aspects of the bridge condition are noted, photographed, and measured to quantify the extent of - the damage or.deterioration: We provide a comprehen- sive report with a detailed description of the necessary immediate and long-range maintenance requirements, - - recommendations for modifications to prevent further deterioration, and recommendations for upgrades to ' increasethe structure's sufficiency rating. We review and identify other functional concerns including site distance, drainage conditions, maintenance issues, and others and we are familiar with the methodology used by the State for the national Bridge Inventory / Qualifying Bridge Structures. Roadways and Intersection Engineering Services The experienced engineering staff of Bill routinely uses their expertise to evaluate alternative solutions for potential roadways and intersection improvements. We pride ourselves in the ability to develop ideas that can feasibly be implemented and realistically be con- structed. We develop project design plans for roadway improvement projects, roadway/intersection widening and reconstruction designs, and can provide traffic related recommendations for the appropriate number of lanes, auxiliary lanes, and storage lengths as needed. Our knowledge of multiple computer software packages gives us the tools to perform engineering evaluations quickly and efficiently and the end product results in graphical displays that clearly convey the ideas which can easily be converted to presentation displays, or taken directly into preliminary engineering. Our staff is familiar with 2001 and 2011 AASHTO Green Book (A Policy on Geometric: Design of Highways and Streets published by the American Association of State Highway and. Transportation Officials), the current edi- tion of the MUTCD, the CDOT Standard Specifications for Road and Bridge Const'ruction, and other state and federal guidelines that are applicable to our industry. BohannanHuston Fountain Creek Watershed Study Each project that we work on is assigned to a design team that has a balanced combination of engineering, designer, and technical support staff to produce the project efficiently and with adequate oversight to ensure quality in the final product for our clients. Stream Stabilization and Bank Protection Design Services BHI's team includes recognized experts in the areas of stream stabilization and bank protection design services that not only improve the hydraulic flow conditions of natural waterways, but are also context sensitive. We use the latest and best technologies to model the waterway including the ability to readily construct one dimensional and two dimensional hydrau- lic models as the situation dictates. Drawing upon years of experience including projects such as the San Felipe Bank Restoration project along the Rio Grande, we are adept at developing stabilization recommenda- tions followed by detailed construction design plans. Solutions we have proposed and designed include: rock vanes, spur dikes, riprap and gabion bank protection structures, rock structure bank protection and grade control structures, bio-engineered bank stabilization, and many more. The key to stabilization and bank protection design is developing an in-depth understand- ing of the site dynamics to ensure the proposed solution will both work hydraulically and aesthetically. We will work closely with Weld County staff to develop such solutions, where needed. Engineering Services Related to the 2013 Flood Recovery i18 Bohannan A Huston PROJECT APPROACH Hydrology. Hydraulics, and FEMA Floodplain Design Services., BHI's extensive Hydrology:,andHydraulics (H&'H) anal- ysis experience allows unto provide practical, val- ue -based design alternatives and recommendations to addrressany of the County'3 stormwater management needs for: improvements to; Repairflood-damaged structures; Cost Benefit analyses, where benefit is generally measured as reduced flood damages; Increase channel capacity and/or stabilization of channel banks and bottom; • Longitudinal grade controlofthe channel invert; • Crossing improvements; • Floodplain preservation; • Detention for flood mitigation and water quality; and • Our experience allows us to prepare plans that meet our clients' needs, include sound analysis, and propose recommendations for cost-effective drainage management solutions. BHI has extensive stormwater run-off analysis expe- rience in predicting stormwatervolumes and peak flow rates for a myriad of storm events, ranging from frequent storm events, such as the 2 -year storm, to extreme events, such as the probable.. maximum pre- cipitation storm. We employ a variety of tools to model stormwater run-off, from the basic Rational Formula and Colorado Urban Hydrograph Procedure (CUHP) to more complex models using HEC-HMS and SWMM. We also have experience completing "first flush" analyses as part of the study and design of stormwater quality facilities and BMPs. .. Our team understands the drainage characteristics of a project are of critical importance and can often dictate several elements of a project design. We begin our analysis by researching previous studies prepared for the area in and around a project site, including historical drainage data. Making certain to coordinate our analysis with previous studies, and existing drainage infrastructure, we will delineate drainage basins and - through the careful selection of approved design parameters calculate run-off and design flow rates. Our hydraulic analysis and design expertise includes the use of HEC-RAS to analyze major drainage ways determining flow conditions such as sub or supercritical flow, flow depth, velocity, and width. Through the use of HEC-Geo RAS we readily develop spatially located models to efficiently produce floodplain and flood inundation maps. Using these hydraulic models as the basis of our design we have completed the design of dozens of bank protection and drop/check structure projects. With three certified floodplain managers (CFMs) on staff -and over 50 Letters of Map Revision (LOMRs) or Conditional Letters of Map Revision (CLOMRs) to our credit, we have the expertise and experience to address any Weld County floodplain need. We have also completed FEMA LOMR appeals and review of LOMRs prepared by others for a number of clients, helping them correct mapping or analysis and reduce floodplain extents. Rarely does FEMA approve a CLOMR without any comments, although BHI has prepared CLOMR submittals in the past that have been approved without comment. In addition to our experience with FEMA, BHI's experts in hydraulic analysis of rivers have provided services for many (over 50) river and ephemeral stream study and design projects, many of which included Clean Water Act Section 401 and 404 Permitting and National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) compliance. We will work with Weld County to determine whether permitting is required, identify the type of permitting necessary, and assist you with developing the materials necessary for successful permitting submissions. Quantity Takeoffs, Cost Estimates, Bid Documents, and Specifications Quantity take -offs are performed at the start of every cost estimate. Essentially,they quantify the material needed to complete the work specified for a project. Cost. Estimates begin with quality bid documents, quan- tity take offs, and accurate item cost estimating during project development. For cost estimating, BHI uses an internally developed web -based construction cost estimating program that uses CDDT project historic cost data to perform detailed analyses of construction cost trends. By sorting unit costs by project type, location, and size, our staff can review bid item history, select unit costs, and generate engineer's estimates appropri- ate to the region and project type. Using this program, Engineering Services Related to the 2013 Flood Recovery 119 Bohannan A Huston PROJECT APPROACH the BHI team will work with Weld County and CDOT Cost Estimates Unit to generate an accurate and comprehensive estimate. Our staff regularly produces preliminary and final design plans with construction packages on projects of all sizes. We have a thorough and comprehensive understanding of construction document requirements, and the design process that goes into the final plan development. In addition to the plans sheets, we provide standard special provisions and project special provisions to describe unique elements of the work, in CDOT format or according to the Weld County Design Standards and Construction Specifications. These specifications accompany opinion of probable construction costs with item numbers, descriptions, units, and quantities — and can be coded as listed in the CDOT item code book. Land Surveying Services • As an in-house service provided at BHI, we feel that our land surveying capabilities are second to none. Our Spatial Data Group offers a full range of surveying and mapping services to support a wide range of needs requested by the Board of Weld County in response to this contract. Our well-equipped and experienced staff of professional land surveyors, survey crew chiefs and certified survey technicians, both field and office, are uniquely qualified to support the needs of the County. The primary goal is to meet or exceed the expectations of the County. Our plan to accomplish this goal for any surveying or aerial mapping project, regardless of proj- ect size, magnitude or duration, is: • Confirm acceptance of scope, budget, and schedule by all team members • Start each project with a kick-off meeting involving all appropriate parties • Maintain communication throughout the life of the project • Adhere to all applicable standards, statutes, and requirements • Perform internal QA/QC • Develop and submit quality and compliant deliverables Right -of -Way Surveying The scope and magnitude of any right-of-way surveying request made by the County will dictate the exact procedures required of the applicable County, CDOT Right of Way Survey, State of Colorado Statutes, or BIM Guidelines. Right-of-way surveying in general will always be under the control and direct supervision of a profes- sional land surveyor licensed in the State of Colorado. After the compilation and researched documents and initial field survey ties are made, a preliminary analysis of all highway right-of-way and both private and public boundary lines and monumentation will be performed. This is typically an iterative process that may need addi- tional field survey support. Field surveys will leave into a detailed analysis of title work, previous surveys and recovered monuments to rend a professional opinion and develop the final right-of-way plans. Right -of -Way Acquisition Support BHI has a long history of right-of-way acquisition surveying support. From developing basic legal descrip- tions and exhibits to large-scale, complex right-of-way drawing and mapping projects, our team will work with the County, landowners and other right-of-way professionals to develop an approach that is unique to the particular project with due regard to cost, schedule, consideration to the public, and underground utilities. Engineering Services Related to the 2013 Flood Recovery 120 EXHIBIT B Request for Proposals Engineering Services related to the September 2013 Flood Recovery I. Purpose The Weld County Public Works Department is requesting proposals for Engineering Services related to the September 2013 Flood Recovery. The requested services may include all or portions of the following: Topographic and ROW Surveying, Roadway or Bridge Repair Design Drawings, Structural Inspection, Hydrology and Hydraulic Analysis, Environmental Clearances, Preparation of Contract Bid Documents, and Construction Inspection. The projects will include 4 separate "Project Areas", defined by the various river corridors as shown on the attached maps. Each Project Area will include several "Sites" along each of the river corridors. There may be as many as 30 overall sites, each of which will require various engineering services as described above in order to restore the sites to pre -flood conditions and specify mitigation efforts that may prevent future flood damages. Maps of the Project Areas and an inventory of the original damage and emergency repairs to the Sites will be provided to the selected consultants. The Department intends to select one consultant for each Project Area to perform the needed work. NOTE: A site visit will be conducted to a single "Sample Site" which will represent the various improvements that may be required at the other sites. The consultant proposals should explain the various work items recommended for the Sample Site and include a breakout of consultant tasks and hours for the Sample Site. These may or may not apply to the other Sites in the Project Areas. II. Scope of Services Weld County is working with FEMA and FHWA specialists to verify damages to County assets that were damaged during recent flooding. Weld County is in need of professional engineering services which will generally consist of overall plan preparation related to flood repairs, specification preparation, and construction management services. Engineering services will comply with County, State, and Federal regulations. Time is of the essence as Weld County anticipates that high water during spring runoff could cause additional damage to project sites. The Public Works Department is looking for ways to shorten the design process and develop an abbreviated set of construction drawings. General engineering services will include: • Design Surveying (Could include temporary easement descriptions) • Hydrology & Hydraulic analysis required to document repair and mitigation efforts • Flood plain record research to validate flow rates that may be used • Preliminary roadway or bridge design, cost estimates, evaluations, plans, reports and coordination with staff and others • Final design, abbreviated plan set preparation, specifications and design details per CDOT Standards • Geotechnical & Drainage investigation/reports (if needed) • Potholing and utilities coordination & relocation • Environmental assessment study • Construction engineering and inspection services for Federal -funded construction projects as directed NOTE: It is anticipated that the consultants will utilize as much existing floodplain mapping/data as is applicable, so that the time and costs required for any hydrology & hydraulic analysis, etc. will be minimized. A. General Project Description The initial emergency repairs necessary prior to opening the roads to traffic has been completed at all the sites. Engineering Services are now needed to reassess the sites to determine final improvements needed to return the sites to a stable permanent condition and indicate if mitigation efforts may prevent future flood damage. The anticipated repairs may include: Riprap armoring of bridge abutments, Wing wall/Railing/Deck Repairs, Placement of turf reinforcing mats, Temporary and Permanent Erosion Control, Seeding, Sod and asphalt patching/paving and striping as required. Although it is unlikely that construction at all the sites can be accomplished before the spring run-off begins (end of May), the goal will be to prioritize the sites and have bid documents ready to bid as soon as possible for the high priority sites. Weld County anticipates that an abbreviated set of plans for many sites will need to be bid ready by the end of February 2014. This may include small yet concise sets of plans and specifications. B. Project Requirements • Structures inspections and design engineering to repair flood damage to structures and roadways impacted by the September 2013 Flood • Report to the Public Works Department on repair needs within each specified project area • Completion of preliminary estimate of construction, engineering and permitting costs • Topographic and ROW Surveying necessary to complete the scope of services • Engineering design for repair and/or replacement of County road and bridge facilities designed in accordance with Weld County, CDOT and FEMA & FHWA standards and clearances • The consultants may be required to meet a DBE participation goal on the design work associated with the FHWA sites • Bid documents as directed for advertisement of improvements in a manner that meets the reimbursement requirements of either FEMA or FHWA • Environmental, historical, land use, and ROW clearances as required • The consultant will be required to provide construction administration and project management including submittal review, documentation, and continuous full time field inspection for the project per CDOT inspection guidelines. Any required materials testing not provided by the construction contractor will be arranged by the County. • The consultant may also be required to produce "as constructed" drawings at the completion of the project. Final drawings shall also be submitted on CD in PDF format. All material submitted at the completion of the project shall become property of Weld County. C.

The Public Works Dept forgot to put that in their bid/RFQ. 3) Regarding the attached RFQ, will Weld County be soliciting separate Geotechnical services necessary for these repairs, doing them in house, or should we add this scope to our SOQ? And if it does need to be included should we include design and testing services or design only? ANSWER We don't anticipate any geotechnical services related to design of the proposed flood recovery improvements. We do anticipate some geotechnical testing services (quality control testing) related to the construction of the proposed flood recovery improvements. ***"Consultants shall limit the total length of their submittal to a maximum of 20 pages, excluding cover and divider. Proposals greater than 20 pages will be rejected" - this means everything you want to include in your RFQ shall be no more than 20 pages. **** December 10, 2013 Rose Everett Weld County Purchasing Department 1150 "O" Street Greeley, CO 80632 Re: RFQ #B1300201 Engineering Services Related to the 2013 Flood Recovery Dear Ms. Everett: Ayres Associates has been intimately involved in flood recovery work for a number of local communities since the moment the 2013 floods began:. Our involvement started. while many of us were attending the Colorado - Association of Floodplain Managers (CASFM) conference in Steamboat Springs, which began on September 11 and was scheduled to end on September 13. Unfortunately most of the representatives from the affected communities. had to leave the conference early to begin dealing with the damages caused by. the flood.. Moments before leaving,. Kevin Houck of the Colorado Water Conservation Board asked Ayres if We could mobilize immediately and take aerial imagery of the flooding along the South Platte, Big Thompson, and Poudre Rivers. Our cover photo is just one image that we obtained throughout the region. 'Since that time We have been actively helping both the City of Loveland and COOT through the post -flood process of assessing damages, prioritizing repairs, and navigating through FEMA processes. Our experience with FEMA in developing Project Worksheets and cost estimates comes from our work with both the University of Iowa and Iowa State University, both of which suffered massive structural damages in recent flooding events. Ayres Associates'FortCollins office is nationally recognized in hydrologic and hydraulic analysis, floodplain and floodway mapping, river engineering, roadway and structure design, and erosion and sedimentation control. Our office is in southwest Fort Collins with easy access to major roadways. Staff in the Fort Collins office not only know the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) design standards, but we actually wrote many of the FHWA design manuals, and a number of our staff teach FHWA courses across the country in culvert design, highway hydraulics, stream stability and scour, and safe bridges, to name a few. We've worked hard to build our clients' trust in all of our analysis and design work, and we look forward to collaborating with Weld County on your flood recovery work.

Within four hours, the Ayres team, which included Jim Scholl and Bill Spitz, along.with staff from the City of Loveland, had a conceptual plan to push the river back to its original location. By the following evening the river had been moved back under very difficult flood -flow conditions, saving the City's water supply. This process would have normally taken years to complete the design and obtain the permits. Also during the flood, Chris Pletcher was asked to join the City of Loveland Emergency Operations Center (EOC) to troubleshoot problems, particularly with damaged utilities, and to begin navigating through the FEMA process. Others from Ayres worked nonstop in the field (including many late nights, early mornings, and weekends) to assess damage to utility lines. Lastly, staff from the Ayres Water Resources group, including John Hunt and Dusty Robinson, assisted the City of Loveland with a geomorphic flood damage assessment and determined the peak flow rate of the event using high water measurements taken just after the flood.

This and other flooding in Wisconsin virtually halted travel from southern Wisconsin to northern Wisconsin for four days. The Wisconsin. Department of Transportation, Southwest Region,. retained Ayres to survey and model the flood impacts from the Baraboo River and to. evaluate potential flooding of the interstate system from the Wisconsin River. The project involved reviewing the existing one- dimensional HEC-RAS model for the Wisconsin River and developing a new model HEC-RAS. model. During evaluation of the Wisconsin River HEC- RAS model Ayres determined that the flow was too complex fora one-dimensional model. More detailed survey was collected, and a two-dimensionalmodel was developed for the Wisconsin River. Modeling results of the Baraboo River showed that the floodwaters of the Baraboo can back up at the State Highway 33 bridge, and Ayres evaluated alternatives including replacing this bridge to protect IH 90/94 from Baraboo River flooding. The two-dimensional model for the Wisconsin River showed about 2 miles of IH-39 would be flooded during the 100 -year flood on the Wisconsin River. Alternatives evaluated included widening bridges, adding bridges, and raising the interstate. Reference: Rodney Taylor, 608.267.3766; Rodney.

Flood Recovery RFQ #61300201 Weld County, Colorado Work Location/Familiarity Ayres Associates' Fort Collins office is adjacent to Weld County and within easy access to I-25. We can be at the Weld County offices in less than 30 minutes to attend a project meeting. Matthew Hickox, one of our hydrology/hydraulics engineers on our project team, worked previously as an intern for Weld County Public Works. In particular, Mr. Hickox provided development review support, floodplain permit review support, and culvert design for CIP projects, including the WCR 18 bridge replacement.

Mr. Hickox has continued to grow in both knowledge and experience since joining Ayres and will be used extensively for any Weld County work. ASSOCIATES 12 Engineering Services Related to the 2013 Flood Recovery RFQ #61300201 Weld, County, Colorado AYRES Project Approach Overall Philosophy Ayres Associates uses a project manager approach to provide engineering services. A registered professional engineer is assigned to serve as the client's primary contact, attend meetings, develop project budgets, schedule work, monitor progress and budgets, and see that projects are completed to the client's satisfaction. The project manager is responsible for making regular telephone calls or emails to the client to update them on the status of the project. In addition, Ayres Associates likes to schedule progress meetings during the course of design (which correspond to project milestones) to discuss issues and concerns face-to-face. The level of service and communication for our clients does not change regardless of the size of the project. We also believe it is important to have all team members attend the project kick-off meeting (at a minimum) to allow the client to put a face with a name for future contact. Once project objectives are identified, relevant resources can be identified to help define the problem, identify potential solutions, and select an optimal solution in the overall best interests of the County. Not every project has the same issues, and as a result, different resources may be relevant to the spectrum of potential solutions. Ayres Associates' staff thrives in a multi -objective environment, and we surround ourselves with partners whose expertise complements our own. Some of the partner relationships are also direct contractual relationships, as with engineering subconsultants. We believe in bringing the best expertise to the table for the benefit of our clients, whether that comes from our internal resources, from other engineers, from consultants or contractors, or from the community at large. Project Approach Ayres Associates believes a successful project begins with a well thought out and detailed scope, cost, and schedule. This may require several ASSOCIATES iterations, with the client's input, but is well worth the upfront time. Based on the schedule provided by Weld County, John Hunt will prepare a detailed project design schedule using Microsoft Project. Using the Microsoft Project schedule, week -by - week activity and task goals will be tracked by the project manager and balanced against the required resources. We believe that a quality assurance program ultimately reduces cost of operations through fewer errors, reduced exposure to liability, and less delay. For the Weld County projects, Jim Schell will be providing the quality assurance/quality control (QA/ QC). In terms of efficiencies in our design efforts, we believe in these key components: • Gather as much information up front as possible. • Determine what the critical path design issues are. • Work with the client as a member of the team. • Continually track schedule and budget. Ayres Associates approaches every project with a sincere effort to develop the most cost-effective solutions for the defined project objectives. While we have the expertise and experience to handle the most complicated stormwater modeling, analysis, and design problems, we approach every project from a common-sense perspective that doesn't overlook simple solutions. Design Phase Ayres Associates envisions that the first phase of the design for any of the Weld County projects will incorporate a period of data collection and alternative analysis. This phase will allow us to thoroughly inspect the structures and vet all regulatory-, design-, and construction -related issues. Once this phase is completed we will move into preliminary design using Weld County Standards, which meet both FEMA and Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) standards. It is during the preliminary design that the initial cost estimates and FEMA worksheets will likely be developed. 13 Engineering Services Related to the 2013 Flood Recovery RFQ #61300201 Weld County, Colorado AVRES It is important to note that FEMA will not allow the proposed design to improve on the previous design unless there has been a change in the design standards since the time the project was originally constructed. Improving the design is considered "betterment" and will not be paid for with FEMA funds. It is also important to have experienced people working on the project costs and worksheets because FEMA will hold us to them. This really requires the ability to know what the design will be before it is completed,. which obviously requires considerable experience, Ayres has significant experience in this area through their work at the University of Iowa and Iowa State University following their recent flood events. We have included two experienced and valuable subconsultants for this work. Andy Herb with Alpine Ecological will be addressing any environmental permitting requirements for the project. Mr. Herb has worked with Ayres Associates for years and with our two primary clients, the City of Fort Collins and City of Loveland. He is fast, efficient, and has great relationships with the regulatory agencies that oversee the environmental permitting. In addition, RMC Consultants has been put on the team to address any historical or cultural resource surveys that may be required. Again, Ayres has worked with the David Killam of RMC Consultants on numerous projects, most recently including the permitting for the Boxelder StormwaterAuthority projects. ASSOCIATES 14 EXHIBIT B Request for Proposals Engineering Services related to the September 2013 Flood Recovery I. Purpose ENGINEERING SERVICES FOR RFP #B13002011 The Weld County Public Works Department is requesting proposals for Engineering Services related to the September 2013 Flood Recovery. The requested services may include all or portions of the following: Topographic and ROW Surveying, Roadway or Bridge Repair Design Drawings, Structural Inspection, Hydrology and Hydraulic Analysis, Environmental Clearances, Preparation of Contract Bid Documents, and Construction Inspection. The projects will include 4 separate "Project Areas", defined by the various river corridors as shown on the attached maps. Each Project Area will include several "Sites" along each of the river corridors. There may be as many as 30 overall sites, each of which will require various engineering services as described above in order to restore the sites to pre -flood conditions and specify mitigation efforts that may prevent future flood damages. Maps of the Project Areas and an inventory of the original damage and emergency repairs to the Sites will be provided to the selected consultants. The Department intends to select one consultant for each Project Area to perform the needed work. NOTE: A site visit will be conducted to a single "Sample Site" which will represent the various improvements that may be required at the other sites. The consultant proposals should explain the various work items recommended for the Sample Site and include a breakout of consultant tasks and hours for the Sample Site. These may or may not apply to the other Sites in the Project Areas. II. Scope of Services Weld County is working with FEMA and FHWA specialists to verify damages to County assets that were damaged during recent flooding. Weld County is in need of professional engineering services which will generally consist of overall plan preparation related to flood repairs, specification preparation, and construction management services. Engineering services will comply with County, State, and Federal regulations. Time is of the essence as Weld County anticipates that high water during spring runoff could cause additional damage to project sites. The Public Works Department is looking for ways to shorten the design process and develop an abbreviated set of construction drawings. General engineering services will include: • Design Surveying (Could include temporary easement descriptions) • Hydrology & Hydraulic analysis required to document repair and mitigation efforts • Flood plain record research to validate flow rates that may be used • Preliminary roadway or bridge design, cost estimates, evaluations, plans, reports and coordination with staff and others • Final design, abbreviated plan set preparation, specifications and design details per CDOT Standards • Geotechnical & Drainage investigation/reports (if needed) • Potholing and utilities coordination & relocation • Environmental assessment study • Construction engineering and inspection services for Federal -funded construction projects as directed 1 NOTE: It is anticipated that the consultants will utilize as much existing floodplain mapping/data as is applicable, so that the time and costs required for any hydrology & hydraulic analysis, etc. will be minimized. A. General Project Description The initial emergency repairs necessary prior to opening the roads to traffic has been completed at all the sites. Engineering Services are now needed to reassess the sites to determine final improvements needed to return the sites to a stable permanent condition and indicate if mitigation efforts may prevent future flood damage. The anticipated repairs may include: Riprap armoring of bridge abutments, Wing wall/Railing/Deck Repairs, Placement of turf reinforcing mats, Temporary and Permanent Erosion Control, Seeding, Sod and asphalt patching/paving and striping as required. Although it is unlikely that construction at all the sites can be accomplished before the spring run-off begins (end of May), the goal will be to prioritize the sites and have bid documents ready to bid as soon as possible for the high priority sites. Weld County anticipates that an abbreviated set of plans for many sites will need to be bid ready by the end of February 2014. This may include small yet concise sets of plans and specifications. B. Project Requirements • Structures inspections and design engineering to repair flood damage to structures and roadways impacted by the September 2013 Flood • Report to the Public Works Department on repair needs within each specified project area • Completion of preliminary estimate of construction, engineering and permitting costs • Topographic and ROW Surveying necessary to complete the scope of services • Engineering design for repair and/or replacement of County road and bridge facilities designed in accordance with Weld County, CDOT and FEMA & FHWA standards and clearances • The consultants may be required to meet a DBE participation goal on the design work associated with the FHWA sites • Bid documents as directed for advertisement of improvements in a manner that meets the reimbursement requirements of either FEMA or FHWA • Environmental, historical, land use, and ROW clearances as required • The consultant will be required to provide construction administration and project management including submittal review, documentation, and continuous full time field inspection for the project per CDOT inspection guidelines. Any required materials testing not provided by the construction contractor will be arranged by the County. • The consultant may also be required to produce "as constructed" drawings at the completion of the project. Final drawings shall also be submitted on CD in PDF format. All material submitted at the completion of the project shall become property of Weld County. C.

Our involvement started while many of us were attending the Colorado Association of Floodplain Managers (CASFM) conference in Steamboat Springs, which began on September 11 and was scheduled to end on September 13. Unfortunately most of the representatives from the affected communities had to leave the conference early to begin dealing with the damages caused by the flood. Moments before leaving, Kevin Houck of the Colorado Water Conservation Board asked Ayres if we could mobilize immediately and take aerial imagery of the flooding along the South Platte, Big Thompson, and Poudre Rivers. One of our cover photos is just one image that we obtained throughout the region. Since that time we have been actively helping both the City of Loveland and CDOT through the post -flood process of assessing damages, prioritizing repairs, recommending permanent solutions, and navigating through FHWA and FEMA processes.

Ayres Associates has been heavily involved in the immediate response to and the recovery from the 2013 flooding event. The flood maps that Ayres created in 2005 were used to assist in evacuations, road closures, and response activities. Before and after the flood peak, Ayres Associates had multiple volunteer crews in the field observing and monitoring the flooding and associated infrastructure in the Poudre and Big Thompson floodplains. Multiple employees were involved in emergency flood response projects during the flood and in the weeks that followed. ASSOCIATES We have assisted the City of Loveland with a geomorphic flood damage assessment and determined the peak flow rate of the flood event. We have also had two employees working full-time at the Colorado Department of Transportation (CDOT) Incident Command Center performing flood recovery assessments for roads and bridges throughout the affected area. Staff in our office "wrote the book" when it comes to river engineering and transportation hydraulics. Some of the FHWA guidance documents written by our Fort Collins staff include: • HEC-20 Stream Stability at Highway Structures • HEC-18 Evaluating Scour at Bridges o HEC-23 Bridge Scour and Stream Instability Countermeasures • HDS-6 River Engineering for Highway Encroachments • HDS-7 Hydraulic Design of Safe Bridges • HEC-22 Urban Drainage Design • HDS-4 Introduction to Highway Hydraulics a HDS-5 Culvert Design In addition, staff members from our offices have been under contract for multiple years with the Federal Highway Administration's National Highway Institute to teach courses across the country in: o River Engineering for Highway Encroachments o Stream Stability and Scour at Bridges o HEC-RAS River Modeling a Countermeasures Design for Stream Instability and Scour o Hydraulic Design of Safe Bridges • Introduction to Highway Hydraulics o Urban Drainage Design Culvert Analysis and Design Performance on Similar Projects and References CDOT Incident Command Center (ICC) Support and Flood Damage Permanent Repairs Assessment Teams, Loveland Client: CH2M Hill Owner: Colorado Department of Transportation Description: Ayres assisted CDOT at its ICC as the hydraulics and geomorphology on -call consultant. Ayres worked with other specialties providing hydraulics and geomorphology support under the initial emergency response effort, performing initial hydrologic and geomorphic assessment of the flood, and assisting in developing Detailed Damage Inspection Reports (DDIR) Form 1547s for distribution of federal funds for the recovery of local agency roads. Under the emergency recovery effort, Ayres' staff served as the team river morphology experts on the CDOT flood damage assessment teams in support of developing a strategic plan for recovery of all affected state and local highways. This recovery includes rebuilding affected state and local highways to their original condition or rebuilding to full standards with all potential betterments possible, including consideration of use of non -emergency relief funding sources for such betterments. Ayres' staff assisted with assessments of the flood damage, evaluated emergency repairs, and recommended permanent repairs and betterments for the major mountain highway corridors, including US 34 from Loveland to Estes Park, SH 7 from Lyons to Estes Park, and LCR 43 from Drake to Glen Haven, as well as at sites on State Highways 72A (Coal Creek Canyon), 119A (Boulder Canyon), 257A and 60B over the Little Thompson and Big Thompson Rivers and the South Platte River in Milliken, and sites on US 34A/D, 52B, 128A, 144A, 71E, and 39A over and along the South Platte River on the Colorado Eastern Plains.

Within four hours, the Ayres team, which included Jim Schall and Bill Spitz, along with staff from the City of Loveland, had a conceptual plan to push the river back to its original location. By the following evening the river had been moved back under very difficult flood -flow conditions, saving the City's water supply. This process would have normally taken years to complete the design and obtain the permits. Also during the flood, Chris Pletcher was asked to join the City of Loveland Emergency Operations Center (EOC) to troubleshoot problems, particularly with damaged utilities, and to begin navigating through the FEMA process. Others from Ayres 8 AVRES Engineering Services Related to the 2013 Flood Recovery RFQ #B1300201 Weld County, Colorado worked nonstop in the field (including many late nights, early mornings, and weekends) to assess damage to utility lines. Lastly, staff from the Ayres Water Resources group, including John Hunt and Dusty Robinson, assisted the City of Loveland with a geomorphic flood damage assessment and determined the peak flow rate of the event using high water measurements taken just after the flood.

Where feasible, design project work to comply with federal funding guidelines. Appropriate prioritization: Identify sites requiring repairs before spring runoff. Prioritization should be based on assessment of current channel stability, current exposure of foundation elements (piles, footings, etc.), proximity of unstable channel banks to abutments, wingwalls, and road embankments. Cost control: Efficiency in design work to avoid unreasonable engineering fees. Lean toward standard treatments and approaches in general, but employ innovative treatments in cases where significant cost savings can be achieved (e.g. partially grouted riprap in place of very large loose riprap). Rapid design schedule for priority sites: Mobilize for survey, site reconnaissance, and channel stability assessment immediately. Conduct very concise engineering analysis (hydraulics, scour, countermeasure sizing, etc.). Develop concise, abbreviated plans and specifications. Design to keep all construction within existing right-of-way wherever possible. Confirm immediate availability of materials (e.g. riprap, precast concrete, etc.) and design for readily available materials. Improved flood resiliency: Look for opportunities, within cost and schedule constraints to improve flood resiliency on high -volume or high -importance routes. Permitting: Design, wherever possible, for use of nationwide 404 permits and for trouble -free attainment of floodplain development permit (e.g. achieve no rise wherever possible). Additional Specific Critical Issues for the Sample Project • Repair and armor south abutment fill Repair armor at north abutment Fill remnant scour holes o Determine whether federal funding can be obtained for a bridge replacement o Assess right-of-way needs for adding a south abutment guidebank o Protect downstream embankment side slopes from destruction by overtopping flows o Design repairs and countermeasures to avoid or minimize flood profile rise o Determine feasible approach to mitigating pier scour at existing bridge 12 FHWA Funding Considerations The FHWA Emergency Relief Manual that FHWA updated in 2013 outlines two categories of emergency relief: emergency repairs (ER), which take place during or immediately after the disaster to restore essential traffic and protect facilities, and permanent repairs (PR), which restore the highway to its pre -disaster condition or improve it (FHWA Emergency Relief Manual, p.3). The ER costs for a qualifying event such as the Colorado floods of September 2013 are covered at 100 percent given that the ER completed are eligible. This should be the case for the ER completed at County Road 53 given that the County has worked closely with CDOT's Incident Command Center (ICC) in the Detailed Damage Inspection Report (DDIR) process with their assessment teams. The ER at County Road 53 included repairing the roadway and embankment north of the bridge for roughly 800 feet, repairing the scour around the concrete box culvert north of the bridge, and repairing the roadway and embankment for a 50 foot section south of the bridge. For the PR at County Road 53, the federal share of the cost is 80% of the qualifying and negotiated repairs. PR is considered in three categories: restoration -in -kind, replacement -in -kind, and betterments (FHWA Emergency Relief Manual, p.21-25). Restoration -in -kind entails simply getting the facility back to what it was prior to the flood event with no additional features. Replacement -in -kind, however, would be a full replacement of the CR53 bridge and bringing the structure and roadway up to current CDOT (or federal) standards. Betterments refer primarily to adding protective or safety features to the bridge and roadway (e.g., stream instability countermeasures, slope stabilization) but can also include raising or extending the bridge and upgrading culverts. Restoration -in -kind has been completed as part of the ER at the County Road 53 site with the exception of fully restoring the south abutment protection. Eligibility for replacement -in -kind of the bridge is based, according to the FHWA Emergency Relief Manual (p.23), on whether the bridge is structurally deficient. Eligibility is not based on whether the structure can pass the current standard design 100 -year storm event flow (the County Road 53 bridge was only designed to pass the 50 -year storm event flow), or even if it is scour critical (the County Road 53 bridge is an Item 113 Code 3 Scour Critical bridge), both of which were existing pre -flood conditions for the bridge. While the County Road 53 bridge experienced scour in the September flood event, especially at the south abutment, it does not appear to have been damaged structurally. Prior to the event, the bridge had a 74 rating: not deficient. Negotiation with the FHWA could potentially result in federal funding for replacement of the bridge due to its impact on the floodplain. Other factors that could result in federal funding are the significant stretch of the roadway that gets overtopped, the scour damage to the piers and abutments, the roadway not being up to current standards, and the heavy volume of traffic. But it is more likely that betterments such as guide banks, improved abutment protection, and roadway embankment protection would be approved for funding at this site. Giventhe lack of capacity of the bridge to pass the 100 -year flood flow, raising the roadway to the north of the bridge may only cause additional scour and other problems at the bridge as well as cause overtopping to the south. Lengthening the bridge by adding a span (though the abutment would need to be replaced with a pier) or a concrete box culvert is also potentially eligible for funding and, if done properly, will increase the capacity of the crossing. Another betterment that is potentially eligible is to replace the existing concrete box culvert with a larger single -span structure or to add additional relief structures to the north or south of the bridge. Raising the bridge is eligible but may be very expensive for the length of the bridge and not feasible given how the spans are fixed and potentially anchored to the piers. 13 _ AYRES Engineering Services Related to the 2013 Flood Recovery RFQ #81300201 Weld County, Colorado Scope of Work for Sample Project Task 1. Data Collection and Surveying The Ayres Associates team has extensive knowledge of public data sources as well as the necessary capabilities to perform any additional survey work as required by each individual site. We will coordinate closely with the client at the beginning of the project to determine what information the client has available for the structure. Ayres will then collect any regulatory hydraulic models from FEMA, bridge inspection reports, bridge plans, right-of-way maps and any other data that may be necessary for the project. The project team will also coordinate any utility locates necessary for design of the repair plans and can also coordinate potholing services if needed. Survey of the project site will likely be necessary for design of the repair. One possible topographic data source will be the LiDAR data being processed by FEMA and the USGS as part of the post -flood recovery efforts. While the final deliverables are not expected until about May 2014, Ayres Associates has the geospatial capabilities in-house to take the raw LiDAR data and process small, site -specific areas. We will also provide any additional survey required for design of the repairs. We will perform bathymetric survey at each structure and can provide more extensive hydrographic surveying by boat if needed. Task 2. Stream Stability Assessment Ayres Associates geomorphology experts will conduct a rapid stream stability assessment based on field reconnaissance, time -sequence aerial photography, historic streambed measurements from the inspection reports, and the understanding of the rivers' responses to the recent flooding that we have already gained through extensive field assessments conducted all along the Front Range since early October. Along the foothills and on the`, eastern plains, the river channels widened and migrated or shifted their course but much of the flood flow expanded well out onto the wide floodplains. In most cases, the roadway and bridges that crossed the floodplains constricted the flow on the floodplain, resulting in backwater upstream of the roadway ASSOCIATES and bridge, causing roadway overtopping and damage to or destruction of the roadways crossing the floodplain. Contraction flow through bridge openings produced significant scour that exposed and/or damaged the foundations of bridge piers and abutments. This is the case for the overtopping and washout of the WCR53/58A roadway and damage to the south abutment of the WCR53/58A bridge. Although the bridge is 663 feet long, the floodplain width at the roadway crossing is more than 3,500 feet resulting in a significant floodplain constriction. As an additional factor, the relative angle of the WCR53/58A roadway to the floodplain and river channel results in a significant skew of flood flow relative to the bridge opening and roadway, which likely contributed to the major contraction scour at the southern end of the bridge and failure of the abutment slope pavement and the embankment fill behind the south abutment. Many of these problems can be countered by constructing a much wider bridge or including resiliencies such as relief bridges, guidebanks, and scour countermeasures as identified in FHWA's HEC-20 "Stream Stability at Highway Structures" and HEC-23 "Design of Bridge Scour and Stream Instability Countermeasures," which were written by Ayres Associates staff. The buildup of woody debris on bridges was also a major problem during the 2013 flood, especially at the WCR53/58A bridge. This bridge sits much lower than many of the other bridges along the South Platte River and collected a significant amount of debris during the flood. The South Platte River corridor is lined with large cottonwoods, which provide a ready source of large woody debris. The effects of wood debris on pier scour are well - documented in NCHRP Report 653, which was also written by Ayres Associates staff (Lagasse et al. 2010), which also provides guidance on evaluating the potential for debris production and delivery and estimating the potential for debris accumulation. Task 3. Preliminary Design of Repairs and Scour Countermeasures The various components of the repairs and scour countermeasures will include, but may not be limited to: removal of any remnant debris; 14 AIRES Engineering Services Related to the 2013 Flood Recovery RFQ #B1300201 Weld County, Colorado roadway embankment reconstruction and armor to protect the downstream embankment slopes; outlet scour revetment at 53/58B; and abutment spill -through slope reconstruction and armor. Pier scour countermeasures are desirable but may be problematic at this site given the short span length and limited access. A structural retrofit of the piers to transfer the load to new, deeper foundations may be considered, but this solution probably could not be constructed prior to spring runoff. The downstream slopes of the overtopping segments of the roadway should be armored. Culvert outlet scour protection and embankment revetment at 53/58B are required. The oversteepened slope of the north abutment and guidebank should be rebuilt and armored to protect it from scouring flows. The south abutment slope will be reconstructed with compacted fill, armored to protect it from scouring flows, and the substantial remnant scour hole refilled to pre -event contours. All repairs and countermeasures described in this paragraph are achievable with no additional right- of-way acquisition and are not expected to cause significant hydraulic impacts. Additional flood -resiliency features may be desirable that would have significant beneficial hydraulic impacts and may require additional right-of-way. Without a bridge replacement, a south abutment guidebank may be recommended for the existing bridge. Guidebanks reduce the abutment scour potential and are recommended on wide floodplains. Additional construction easments and right-of-way acquisition will likely be necessary to add the south guidebank, but fortunately it would not be required for spring runoff protection. It could therefore be constructed on a later schedule, allowing more time for right-of-way acquisition. All countermeasures will be designed to HEC-23, 3rd edition standards. A bridge replacement would be an ideal solution. The proposed replacement bridge, if funding were'. available, would be designed to limit roadway overtopping and to pass the 100 -year flood event, with drift clearance for the heavy debris load, and withstand the estimated 100 -year scour. The Ayres Associates team will provide preliminary ASSOCIATES plans under this task at a 50% design level. Plans will show recommended scour countermeasures and any other repairs deemed necessary for the overall use and stability of the site. The Ayres team has experience producing construction plans in conformance to CDOT plan production standards and formats. The team will coordinate closely with the County to produce the repair construction plans in an abbreviated format to meet the needs of the project. Standard CDOT details will be used where possible for this project. We understand that CDOT requires plans to be prepared in MicroStation, and we are well -versed in the use of this software. We will identify existing rights -of -way and easements early on during the preliminary design process. We will use this information during the design of any repairs to determine if additional rights -of - way or easements are necessary. Our Colorado licensed surveyor will coordinate closely with the County's right-of-way agent before review by CDOT to minimize issues that could arise during the acquisition or recording process of any additional rights -of -way or easements. As a part of this task, we will develop quantities based on the CDOT Standard Specification pay items, where possible. Cost opinions will be developed based on the detailed quantities, our knowledge of recent local construction projects, and CDOT cost data, latest issue. We anticipate an aggressive schedule early in the project for those sites deemed high priority. Due to the desired completion of design by the end of February 2014, we propose no less than bi-weekly progress meetings with the County. We anticipate an aggressive schedule once the design is complete for the high priority areas but will remain flexible to meet the County's needs for progress meetings for the remaining sites.' Early in the design process, we will identify any utilities for each site and will be available to meet with the utility companies to obtain more information or to begin coordination of relocation of any utility in the way of repair work. 15 AYRES Engineering Services Related to the 2013 Flood Recovery RFQ #B1300201 Weld County, Colorado We will also be available to meet as needed for each site with representatives of CDOT staff pending their involvement at individual sites. If bridge replacement funding becomes available, geotechnical borings will be performed to assist in the foundation design of a new structure. Task 4. Hydraulic Modeling and Scour Analysis Hydraulic modeling of existing and proposed conditions is necessary to validate the adequacy of the proposed repair and scour countermeasures and to verify that the proposed design will be compliant with floodplain regulations. One-dimensional modeling is the current base state -of -practice for hydraulic engineering at bridge crossings. Ayres Associates has substantial experience in 1 -dimensional (HEC-RAS) modeling for floodplain mapping, bridge hydraulic design, and scour analysis. One-dimensional modeling has some disadvantages for the sample project. The hydraulic engineer must incorporate substantial simplifying assumptions in relatively common complex situations present in real -world floodplains. As a result, designs based on 1 -dimensional modeling must incorporate significant conservative assumptions (e.g., rock sizing, design velocities, etc.). One-dimensional models are most suitable to perpendicular crossings, single -opening bridges, relatively narrow floodplains, single -thread streams, and mild constrictions. Two-dimensional modeling, by contrast, is most suitable for conditions where 1 -dimensional modeling assumptions and limitations are not well - met highly skewed floodplain crossings, multiple - opening bridges, multi -thread streams, and very wide floodplains. It has a number of advantages. Complex flow patterns, flow expansion and contraction, ineffective flow areas, flow distribution, and depth -average velocities are calculated directly and are not dependent on simplifying assumptions. More detailed and accurate flow distribution, particularly at multi -thread streams and multiple openings, often results in reduced total project cost and increased flood resiliency. While 2 -dimensional modeling typically requires more topographic data, ASSOCIATES regional LiDAR availability significantly reduces the impact of this issue. This 2 -lane, 662 -foot -long crossing over the Platte River is skewed approximately 40 degrees to the mile -wide floodplain, and more than 45 degrees to the current low -flow channel alignment. The skew results in substantial flow concentration to the south bridge abutment under flood -flow conditions. The flow distribution pattern at the bridge is substantially non -one-dimensional, with transverse flow along the bridge, and with aggressive flow concentration at the south abutment for 100 -year design flow conditions. Large floods produce four flow paths crossing the roadway alignment (the north and south embankment overtopping, the culvert crossing at WCR 53/58B, and the main 662 -foot -long span), all of which increase the degree of conservatism required in a hydraulic or scour countermeasure design when working in a 1 -dimensional context. A 2 -dimensional model will most accurately capture the flow characteristics at this site and can be done within the project time and budget constraints. We are willing to use 1 -dimensional modeling on the sample project but prefer to use 2 -dimensional modeling. We have extensive experience in two- dimensional modeling at bridge crossings, and we are confident that we can successfully use this technique at the sample project site. The hydraulic modeling effort will, at a minimum, require an existing -conditions model and a proposed -conditions model for each design alternative for the design event. These model scenarios are necessary to establish the flooding and hydraulic impacts of any scour countermeasures and bridge modifications necessary for a permanent repair condition. Immediate repair to pass a typical spring runoff without additional damage to the 53/58A crossing can be implemented within the existing right-of-way, will not cause significant hydraulic impacts relative to existing conditions, and can be designed on the basis of the existing conditions model. These impacts will be limited by the proposed designs to the regulatory maximum for this FEMA Zone A floodplain region to prevent regulatory review delays in approving the project. Ayres Associates will potentially model two 16 AWES Engineering Services Related to the 2013 Flood Recovery RFQ #B1300201 Weld County, Colorado permanent design alternatives. The first modifies the existing bridge to improve its resiliency to flooding under design flow conditions with hydraulic scour countermeasures. If it appears that funding may be available for a replacement of the bridge given its age, design limitations, and known scour deficiencies, a second proposed conditions model will be developed to simulate the effects of a bridge replacement. Scour depths will be predicted for the worst -case conditions up to and including the 100 -year flood for the existing bridge and for any proposed hydraulic countermeasure scenarios and for the bridge replacement design, if relevant, using the methods recommended in HEC-18, 5'h edition (which was written by Ayres Associates). We will apply our extensive depth of knowledge in the field of bridge scour to quickly and accurately assess the scour potential at this bridge considering the proposed countermeasure concepts. This task will be conducted concurrently with the development and review of the preliminary design of the repair and the countermeasures. The modeling and scour analysis will be used to validate the preliminary design so that necessary adjustments (size of riprap, revetment toe -downs, etc.) can be made in the final design task. Task 5. Final Design Once the hydraulic and scour analysis are complete and review comments have been received from the County on the preliminary design submittal, Ayres will address any County comments and questions and provide a set of final, bid -ready construction plans and specifications. The Ayres team has used the CDOT Standard Specifications for many projects. The latest version of the CDOT Standard Specifications will be used for this project. If required by the project, project - specific special provisions to supplement the CDOT Standard Specifications will be provided as part of the bid documents. Pay items will be defined per CDOT Standard Specifications wherever possible. We will assist the County with questions that may arise during the bidding process. Sample Project Schedule Spring runoff for the Little Thompson, Big Thompson, Cache La Poudre, St Vrain, and South Platte rivers typically starts in May, peaks in June, and returns to normal base flows by August. If March and April are unusually warm, runoff could begin earlier than normal. To protect priority facilities by the beginning of spring runoff, construction should ideally be completed by May 1. ASSOCIATES Ayres will facilitate a faster timeframe by performing the hydraulic modeling in conjunction with the preliminary design phase instead of prior to the design phase. Ayres will use the Bureau of Reclamation 2 -dimensional model SRH for the hydraulic modeling at County Road 53. Ayres has the experience with SRH to make the 2 -dimensional modeling much more efficient and useful at this complex site than the typical 1 -dimensional modeling. The anticipated schedule milestones for the sample project are indicated below. These milestones are for repairs to the crossing that would not include replacement of the bridge. If the decision is made to pursue a bridge replacement based on available funding, then the minimum repairs necessary to protect the bridge during spring runoff would be implemented according to the milestones below, and the design process for the bridge replacement would continue into the summer of 2014. Project Phase Completion Date Contract Award January 8 Data Collection January 17 Preliminary Design February 14 Hydraulic Modeling February 14 County Review February 21 Final Design February 28 Bid Selection March 14 Construction May 1 Estimated Man Hours by Task for Sample Project Task 1 16 hrs Engineer/10 hrs Survey Task 2 16 hrs Engineer/Geologist Task 3 100 hrs Engineer Task 4 120 hrs Engineer Task 5 120 hrs Engineer/Scientists 17 Project Control Ayres' thorough hydraulic analysis and geomorphic assessment will feed into the completion of the most highly cost-effective design. The use of Microstation as part of CDOT requirements, as well as having the LiDAR and updated bathymetry data, allows for use of the 3 -dimensional design process for the scour countermeasures. Here we are referring to 3 -dimensional visualization within the Microstation environment. The 3 -dimensional design process produces more accurate quantities and enhances our ability to anticipate construction problems during the design phase as opposed to during construction when these problems cause delays and higher costs. Overall, the visualization of the 3 -dimensional design process allows for a much better vision of the final product than the conventional design process, and Ayres can perform it as cost effectively as a conventional design. We are confident that our approach will lead to a cost-effective project. Ayres, as stated elsewhere in this proposal, is very familiar with and helped write many of the FHWA manuals for highways in the river environment, especially HEC-18, HEC-20, and HEC-23, which provide the accepted guidelines for the evaluation of bridges and roadways in the river environment as well as the accepted design guidelines for the design of scour countermeasures. Ayres is committed to following these federal guidelines as well as the CDOT design guidelines where they coincide with and supersede the FHWA guidelines. The Ayres Associates' quality plan encompasses the following areas: Quality control: QC activities are performed continually to verify that project management and deliverables are of high quality and meet your quality standards. Some examples of these activities are developing step-by-step process and procedures sheets for field and office tasks; ensuring 100% deliverable review by the team leader, reviewing supervisor, and confirming engineer; and providing weekly status reports to the County project manager. Quality assurance: QA activities focus on the processes used to manage and provide the methods used to evaluate overall project performance. Our QA activities ensure that the project will satisfy your standards and will define and record quality reviews and client feedback. Examples of some of these activities include office quality reviews, field quality reviews, external peer reviews, and client reviews. Project deliverables and acceptance criteria: Project team members and all subconsultants will agree at the project planning stage on the processes and major acceptance criteria that will be used to evaluate reports before they are formally approved. Documents used to meet these goals include the deliverable submittal checklist to prevent administrative errors in submittals. ° Quality of subcontractors and vendors: Work completed by subconsultants and vendors will be reviewed as part of the QA process. These team members will be held to the same high standards as Ayres Associates. 18 u N W c w_ Co-fi w w F, a mX ._- w dower a Lo rot ct wN w_ > O O LO Co Co CO 03 Co CO O co co M LO CO CO O CO CO CO m M K v w W Y 0 0 —En .¢--_....-.Ji_ 2 Q �. a¢r' Kn' an' L a w _.. ___7 __..1._ n 0 k a., I w31 "1- 1 F- o 0-oi1 >eww 0 -Lo 1 w= 1 xm 1 1 I 1 1 10 CD CO M O W M N Co CO co co en CoLO CO V M a Co M en Co M CO CO CO M 1 1 1 1 1 I I C + v ' 1 1 1 u.z- 1 v XS 1! w a¢ p, C r rcl K n w �'+. - aw Cr a C' II •.

The Public Works Dept forgot to put that in their bid/RFQ. 3) Regarding the attached RFQ, will Weld County be soliciting separate Geotechnical services necessary for these repairs, doing them in house, or should we add this scope to our SOQ? And if it does need to be included should we include design and testing services or design only? ANSWER We don't anticipate any geotechnical services related to design of the proposed flood recovery improvements. We do anticipate some geotechnical testing services (quality control testing) related to the construction of the proposed flood recovery improvements. ***"Consultants shall limit the total length of their submittal to a maximum of 20 pages, excluding cover and divider. Proposals greater than 20 pages will be rejected" - this means everything you want to include in your RFQ shall be no more than 20 pages. **** ATKINS Weld County Statement of Qualifications Engineering Services Related to the 2013 Flood Recovery RFQ #B1300201 December 11, 2013 Plan Design Enable ATKINS December 11, 2013 Weld County Purchasing Department 1150 "0" Street Greeley, Colorado 80632 Atkins North America, Inc. 4601 DTC Boulevard, Suite 700 Denver, Colorado 80237 Telephone: +1.303.221.7275 Fax: +1.303.221.7276 www.atki nsg loba l.com/northa merica Subject: Qualifications for Engineering Services Related to the 2013 Flood Recovery RFQ #81300201 Dear Review Panel Members: The severe September flooding in Weld County wreaked havoc on residents' lives, their homes and businesses, and on County infrastructure. While rescues were made immediately after the flooding and road and bridge repairs have begun, a great deal of work and manpower is still necessary to bring the community back to a sense of normalcy. The County needs a qualified and available team that will augment its important flood recovery efforts. Atkins' Colorado staff has the availability and broad experience to successfully manage projects through all phases (survey, inspection, design, final plans, bids, and construction). We also have extensive national and local experience with disaster/flood recovery projects and compliance requirements to qualify for federal assistance and maximize federal and state reimbursement. With local staff, friends, and families who have been affected by the flooding, the Atkins team genuinely wants to help. We offer you emergency recovery and disaster relief experience, as demonstrated by the successful opening of the finished SH 72 (Coal Creek Canyon) roadway where we supplied design and construction assistance to the Colorado Department of Transportation (CDOT) Region 1. Our team also assisted the City of Longmont in assessing structures after the storm event and supported Boulder County by doing site surveys and permitting, all to aid flood recovery efforts and provide controlled access to properties and neighborhoods within a very short time frame. While we have been involved in many Colorado flood recovery efforts, we still have ample capacity to mobilize for your flood recovery projects. Atkins is a full -service engineering consultancy with 15 years of Colorado non -project specific (NPS)/on-call contract experience with clients including Weld County, City of Fort Collins, City of Greeley, City and County of Denver, City of Longmont, COOT, and FHWA. Our Denver office provides transportation planning and design, traffic engineering, structural engineering, water resources, and construction management services. Our local and national presence allows Atkins to meet aggressive and time -constrained schedules while focusing on adhering to budgets and quality. Our team's strengths include the following: • We are experienced with FHWA, FEMA, and Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) requirements. Atkins has been working with FHWA for years —currently on the SH 72 flood recovery effort —so we are quite familiar with FEMA and NRCS requirements. This knowledge will enable the County to make decisions to maximize the reimbursement received for each project. Our emergency management task lead, Wayne Floyd, has played a key role in our Colorado flood recovery work and brings more than 25 years of hands-on experience in emergency management planning, disaster recovery, and environmental health hazards associated with natural disasters. • We understand and address project challenges from the start. The complexities of each project are rarely the same, and we carefully staff our projects to efficiently meet specific needs. Atkins has worked extensively in the South Platte and St. Vrain River corridors and understands the associated issues and challenges. We have also worked with the Colorado Water Conservation Board (CWCB) to develop digital flood insurance rate maps (DFIRM) in Weld County, giving us an in-depth understanding of the hydrau is and hydrologic issues throughout the county. Atkins will quickly assess the requirements of any project, whether it has been partially completed or is in its infancy. • We offer accelerated floodplain mapping through our proprietary Rapid Floodplain Delineator (RFD) application. Atkins' hydrology and hydraulics specialists, along with our GIS technicians, are using RFD to map the new floodplains created by the floods. This effort will enable the affected counties and FEMA to understand the changes and better direct rehabilitation efforts and resources. 1 December 11, 2013 Weld County Purchasing Department Page 2 ATKINS • We provide cost-effective services on schedule.

Overall firm capabilities Atkins is one of the world's leading engineering and design consultancies, With 2,700 employees in 70 offices nationwide, Atkins supports a mix of public- and private - sector clients. Perhaps the most significant indicator of Atkins' success is our 90 percent volume of repeat business, which reflects our clients' satisfaction. We have the breadth and depth of expertise to respond to the most technically challenging and most time -critical infrastructure projects. 2.1 System procedures for scheduling and costing projects Effective project controls are the backbone of project success. Atkins has developed proven controls that will help us maintain project schedules, costs, and quality. 2.1.1 Cost control Realistic budgets must be established at the start of any project. Our project manager and deputy project manager — Josh Hollon and Andrew Holton, respectively —will develop and monitor budgets. Accurate quantities and cost oloa•12n Atkins I Proposal for Weld County Engineering Services Related to the 2013 Flood Recovery I Table 2 Project budgeting and cost estimating Project Engineers estimate/ low bid SH 72 Reconstruction Harmony Road Bridge Replacement Colfax and 14th Avenue Streetscape Hess Road Signals Harmony/Lemay and Drake/Lemay Intersection Improvements South Circle Drive Safe Routes to School $520,000/ $460,000 $2,000,000/ $1,499,648 $3,235,432/ $2,228,023 $479,659/ $468,661 $530,003/ $457,274 $186,099/ $160,808 estimates are crucial to project success, since errors and omissions can cause project delays and additional costs. We have learned through the flood work we have performed thus far that construction estimates have been high due to several factors —lack of staff and equipment and their location in relation to the project sites. Atkins will use that information to assist the County in developing construction estimates. Our project manager, Josh Holton, and deputy project manager, Andrew Holton, working with our task leads, will carefully develop and monitor the construction estimates and update the County of any significant changes prior to advertisement. Atkins uses Oracle E -Business Suite as our internal project accounting system. Detailed project information can be obtained on a weekly basis to ensure compliance with project budgets and schedules. For each invoice, Atkins will prepare and include monthly progress reports detailing the work completed, anticipated work, and any potential issues. Atkins' engineer estimates have consistently been slightly above the contractor low bid. Table 2 highlights some examples of our past performance in delivery of plan packages that met the programmed amounts. 2.1.2 Schedule control Meeting the schedule is also essential to project success. Josh and Andrew and our task leads will identify key milestones and critical path items at the start of any project, and will develop a schedule for all deliverables in coordination with you. We use Microsoft Project to develop and track schedules. Key elements to maintain schedules include: • Factoring in adequate time for Atkins quality control reviews and County reviews. • Setting critical path intermediate milestones such as weather conditions, spring runoff, and the ability to evaluate/inspect project sites in winter conditions. • Developing a recurring internal Atkins team progress meeting date and time to communicate expectations. • Following up on meeting action items. • 2.2 QA plan and procedure Our proven five -step approach to QA/QC, as demonstrated in the following QA/QC procedure graphic, has one single focus —to consistently provide you quality deliverables. We follow our QA/QC process on all deliverables and submittals, whether it is a complete set of design plans and specifications or a single paragraph technical memorandum. Jerry Waterman will ensure that our QA/QC process takes place by assigning a QC reviewer with appropriate expertise to each task/project. 3. Performance on similar projects This section illustrates our team's experience and qualifications in completing flood recovery, bridge and structure design, road design, surveying and mapping, CAD/plan preparation, and construction management and construction observation and inspection services. Specific to flood recovery efforts, Atkins has extensive and exclusive capabilities in post -flood mapping activities. For example, CWCB has flown LiDAR for many of the flood - affected rivers and communities throughout Weld County, as shown in the image below. Using this information, Atkins' automated floodplain mapping systems can quickly zvMAKE QpA90 4 c, est w 2e o�y 5�� -4--VERIFY C°R;# Weld County post -flood LiDAR Atkins J Proposal for Weld County Engineering Services Related to the 2013 Flood Recovery and efficiently identify changes in flooding risks caused by channel migrations during the September floods. This automated mapping can provide quick identification of new flood risks, support future design efforts, and provide additional floodplain management tools. Atkins' relationship with CWCB, combined with our automated floodplain mapping systems, will provide Weld County with post -flood risk assessment very quickly and with minimal cost to the County. Atkins has the right mix of local staff to respond to any flood recovery project. Since many of our relevant projects have overlapping services, we have included Table 3 below and project highlights on the following pages to illustrate the types of qualifications and experience evidenced by each project. Additionally, Figure 1 highlights Atkins' experience with Weld County roadway and floodplain delineation projects and our understanding of the critical issues involved in flood recovery efforts. Table 3. Selected similar experience Project Owner Rapid Floodplain Delineator RFD has been used to provide rapid Zone A delineation throughout the country by using available topography to generate approximate floodplain delineations. Locally, Atkins used RFD to delineate 800 miles of floodplain for Douglas County in approximately 1 month, less than half the time that this process would take using traditional mapping methods. RFD uses available stream gages, regional regression equations, and LiDAR information to prepare a simplified —but FEMA-approved—hydrologic analysis. RFD also automates the hydraulic analysis by cutting cross sections from the LiDAR surface and preparing a HEC-RAS hydraulic model. These automated processes will quickly and accurately calculate water surface elevations throughout the study area. With RFD, Atkins can create efficient floodplain delineation that provides the most stream miles for the allotted budget as well as provides Risk MAP -quality delineations. > O V Q1 O O Firm Bridges/structure design Roadway design Surveying and mapping Hydrology/hydraulics Construction/inspection Weld County Road 49 Extension Weld County DFIRM Cache La Poudre/South Platte River Conditional Letter of Map Revision (CLOMR)/Bridge SH 72 Coal Creek Canyon Emergency Project Longmont Structure Assessment On -Call Transportation Engineering Services On -Call General Engineering Services CDOT Region 1 General Engineering NP5 Colorado Bridge Enterprise (CBE) Design NPS Boulder County Flood Recovery North Shields Street Reconstruction SH 66 and County Line Road Intersections High Water Mark Collection Weld County • Atkins CWCB/Weld County Atkins Atkins ✓ ✓ ✓ CDOT Region 1 Atkins ✓ ✓ City of Longmont Atkins ✓ ✓ City of Fort Collins Atkins ✓ City and County of Denver Atkins ✓ ✓ ✓ ✓ ✓ ✓ ✓ ✓ ✓ ✓ CDOT Region 1 Atkins CDOT Region 2 Atkins Boulder County Pinyon ✓ ✓ /VI Larimer County Pinyon ✓ V ✓ City of Longmont • Pinyon ✓ ✓ USACE Woolpert ✓ Atkins I Proposal for Weld County Engineering Services Related to the 2013 Flood Recovery J 9 Figure 1..

Atkins I Proposal for Weld County Engineering Services Related to the 2013 Flood Recovery 2013 Colorado Floods - SH 72 Coal Creek Canyon Emergency Project Design and Construction Management In the wake of the September 2013 Colorado floods, Atkins was notified by CDOT Region 1 of an 18 -mile emergency project on SH 72 from SH 93 to SH 119, with a 5 -mile portion of the road severely damaged and impassable. Atkins immediately mobilized, reviewing and walking the project site, working with COOT to prepare bid documents, showing the site to contractors, explaining the bidding process, and modifying final bid documents, all within 48 hours. As CDOT and the Atkins project manager were preparing and accepting bids from contractors, Atkins designers continued to survey the project site, meet with utility companies, and prepare a preliminary plan of action with typical sections, working continuously through the days, evenings, and weekend. Less than 1 week after Atkins' assistance was requested, the contractor started work to repair the damaged roadway and opened controlled access for those living in the construction corridor. Atkins worked side by side with CDOT and the contractor, preparing additional documents as needed. This project was funded by FHWA and FEMA emergency funds, which required that project documentation be kept separate and independent. Atkins ensured that the documentation was updated daily and estimates were paid every 2 weeks, as requested by the contractor. During the federal review process, FEMA confirmed that the documentation met or exceeded FEMA requirements.

Because our team was proactive in planning and executing these potential issues during the repair work, construction remained on a fast -track schedule. Items such as debris removal, redirecting the stream with dikes, and other appropriate measures were performed with the stream/ road restoration and as the riprap was being placed. The riprap-faced slopes help prevent erosion into the stream, and the corridor is being seeded and mulched to provide further erosion control. Several key stakeholders were involved in this project including CDOT, Atkins, the contractor, utilities, and local residents. Excel Gas was a major stakeholder since its gas line had to be rebuilt within the roadway template for the entire corridor, which required close coordination. A team atmosphere was established early on with all stakeholders, creating a synergy for efficiently completing a successful project within a very short time frame. The team developed. many creative ideas by working together closely, resulting in quicker construction and a quality final product that will stand up to future flooding. The finished roadway was opened to all traffic in just under 2 months.

The City needed a consultant to perform assessments in order to decide which routes could safely be reopened to residents. Atkins had coincidentally performed a site visit as part of a reconstruction project the Friday before the flooding for the two bridges over the St. Vrain River, which received extensive flood damage. These bridges are undersized for a large flood event, as was made evident. Working quickly to respond to the emergency, the Atkins team performed visual cursory structure assessments on 16 river and creek crossings (bridges and box culverts), eight pedestrian crossings, and the adjacent -trails and roadways, all within a 36 -hour period. As the water was still high, these assessments were based on what could actually be seen. With Atkins' feedback, the City.of Longmont was able to open multiple routes from north to south that had previously been closed. During the next few days, Atkins also wrote brief memos to help the City determine funding options and document the impacts of the floods for FEMA. Based on a follow-up site visit, Atkins recommended, and the City of Longmont approved, another more detailed structural and scour assessment of the Main Street bridge. The team was able to view more of the bridge's components, including its spread footings, once the water had receded. Atkins recorded the depth of the scour caused by the flooding and made recommendations for temporary erosion protection, since the bridge is scheduled to be replaced later in 2014. Countermeasures were recommended in case of another flood event or heavy spring runoff. A sanitary sewer that ran underneath the bridge was also damaged, and Atkins is working on both the temporary and permanent repair with City of Longmont staff.

The services you are requesting are all within our areas of expertise, andwe have the staff to efficiently and . cost-effectively deliver this project. Atkins has local team members and can easily meet with: Weld County staff on short notice. Our Denver office is located at: 4601 DTC Boulevard, Suite 700 Denver, Colorado 80237 303.221.7275 5. Project understanding and approach Atkins has been tracking Key areas of concern flood damage throughout • Spring runoff/thaw Colorado since the of inspection devastating storm event in • Feasibility p September. We understand (channel, rip rap, scour) that the County has started and completed substantial work on many projects but needs additional help to complete important recovery efforts, as some projects are only temporary and may have issues resulting from the spring thaw runoff. The County does an excellent job keeping citizens and the public informed on the status of flood recovery information through its http://flood2013.weldgov.com site. This information has provided our team a more detailed grasp on the challenges currently faced by Weld County. Atkins understands that the scope of services will differ for each South Platte/St. Vrain River project, including elements such as preparing bid documents in accordance with FEMA, FHWA, and Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) requirements; managing construction; preparing plans; and/or providing specific areas of expertise such as traffic engineering, surveying, hydrologichydraulic studies, or pavement design. The Atkins team has the experience and capacity to address any level of scope needed. Flood recovery efforts require a mix of skill, speed, and manpower —Atkins offers you all three. Our team has the relevant experience needed, including recent flood recovery work for CDOT Regions 1 and 4, Boulder County, and the City of Longmont. With our large Colorado staff and additional subconsultant team members, we have the resources to work quickly and to complete your projects within or ahead of schedule —as we did for the SH 72 Coal Creek Canyon Flood Recovery Design and Construction Management project. Atkins has project management processes and best practices in place to effectively complete your project tasks. We will work closely with the County to address your needs through effective management and organization, a demonstrated task order delivery process, and a sound coordination/communication approach and process. Our team has the necessary experience and qualifications in completing flood recovery; bridge and structure design; road design; surveying and mapping; CAD/plan preparation; and construction inspection services. Atkins' Denver office is within an hour's drive of Weld County, and we have several team members in the area at any given time, offering responsive service for these time -sensitive recovery efforts. Each task or project assigned to our team will be managed within our proven project controls structure, which includes stringent cost and schedule controls. Atkins also follows a stringent QA/QC process for each and every project, whether large or small. Atkins understands the urgent situation you are in —while repair efforts have commenced, citizens are still displaced, many roads and bridges are still damaged, there are not enough resources, and the clock keeps ticking. As Coloradans with friends and family affected by these destructive floods, we want to be your teammate in quickly and skillfully completing recovery project efforts. 5.1 Approach to flood recovery projects The key to the Atkins team delivering County projects of various levels of completion within a tight time schedule involves partnering with the County project manager to fully understand the status of each project as well as having the expertise and capacity readily available to skillfully meet critical deadlines. Atkins has recent local flood recovery experience doing exactly that on the SH 72 Coal Creek Canyon Emergency Design and Construction Management project for CDOT Region 1. We also have team members supporting Boulder County on more than a dozen environmental and permitting efforts, performing bridge assessments for the City of Longmont, and supporting USACE in surveying and mapping high water marks on the Big Thompson and Little Thompson rivers, along with multiple others rivers and creeks. Our team's work on SH 72 enabled CDOT to open the corridor 1 month ahead of schedule. By opening SH 72 early, our team members are available to work on other projects. Atkins prides itself on client service and unparalleled responsiveness. One of the advantages resulting from the size of our local office and nationwide firm is that resource allocation is a standard practice. If a project's deadline is moved up or another immediate need becomes apparent, our firm has the ability to pull from additional resources —all while keeping your point of contact and local team intact. For example, we recently used our emergency management team led by Wayne Floyd on the SH 72 flood recovery. His group traveled to the project and helped train the inspector and contractor field crews on how to Atkins I Proposal for Weld County Engineering Services Related to the 2013 Hood Recovery 1 15. document the project so emergency funds from FEMA and FHWA could be received. During the federal review process, it was confirmed that the documentation met what was required -by these agencies the first time. Wayne's group has performed emergency management services for disasters including Hurricanes Sandy, Irene, Gustav, Fran,. Ike, Bonnie, Dennis, and Floyd, along with major tornadoes, snowstorms, and other flood -related storm events. An approach to flood recovery projects is slightly different than an approach to a normal NPS-type contract. Since your projects are in various levels of completion, we will demonstrate our approach. from project initiation. As would be the case in -any project, we will complete an on -site investigation and assessment to understand the road and structure conditions. Atkins will involve our emergency management staff as early as possible -they will be on site to ascertain.that FHWA, FEMA, and NRCS guidelines and criteria are met and documentation is completed properly so funding is not jeopardized. We will work closely with the County during this investigation and assessment. After completing the site assessments, plans will be developed or assessments will be verified so our team can confirm the basis for the plans on which we work. Throughout this process, we always consider the environment, which must be investigated and protected. The requirements of the Colorado Discharge Permit System— Stormwater Construction Permit (CDPS-SCP) still apply and will need to be met. Also, 401/404 permits are applicable and will likely be needed. We will work together to • determine the best combination of erosion control methods including seeding, revegetation, and landscape restoration. 5.2 Approach to project management Atkins' project management approach for flood recovery projects centers on partnering with the County and working closely with your project manager to successfully FEMA reimbursement FEMA has two types of work eligible for reimbursement through a Public Assistance grant —emergency work and permanent work. Each is divided into categories. Weld County is concerned with two of these categories, specifically: • Category B: Emergency protective measures, which involve actions taken to save lives, protect public health and safety, and prevent damage to improved property. • Category C: Roads and bridges, which is considered permanent work and involves permanent repair or replacement of roads and bridges. Members of our team are familiar with these criteria, having performed flood recovery work for Jefferson County on SH 72 and the City of Longmont on structure assessments. Atkins' subconsultants include: • Pinyon Environmental, Inc. (DBE) — environmental clearances/permits • Shannon & Wilson, inc. — geotechnical services and pavement design • Woolpert, Inc. — surveying deliver each project, regardless of the level of completeness. With our focus on client service, we are dedicated to listening to you and putting your needs first. To be successful, the people involved with each project —on both the consultant side and the County side —need a common understanding of the project, agreed -upon objectives, effective metrics that track these objectives, and milestones that can be effectively planned and monitored. Our team will decide upon a communication approach and use tools for sharing accurate information in a timely manner. Our project management approach has four key elements: • Effective management and organization • Proven NPS/on-call design philosophy • Demonstrated task order delivery process • Coordination/communication approach and process 5.2.1 Management and organization Ourmanagement and organizational approach focuses on our team structure, which sets the stage for seamless delivery. Our extensive experience on similar NPS-type contracts for Weld County, the City of Fort Collins, City of Greeley, City and County of Denver, CDOT, and FHWA is reflected in our experienced leadership including Dan Liddle (principal -in -charge) and Josh Holton (project manager). Our team also includes a core group of experienced task leads and a comprehensive technical support team, as shown in our organizational chart on page 4. Our task leads were selected based on their experience delivering NPS-type contracts in their expertise area. As our principal -in -charge, Dan has the authority to sign and authorize contracts. Josh, as project manager, is empowered to make staffing assignments and will be responsible for contract administration duties. Based on the County's project request, Josh will determine the most appropriate task read for delivery while remaining your point of contact. His technical expertise and knowledge will allow him to provide additional guidance to technical staff to meet your needs. Our task leads are senior staff with extensive experience managing large multidisciplinary teams as well as smaller individual tasks as part of a larger team. 5.2.2 NPS/on-call design philosophy Atkins has established our presence in Colorado by delivering important projects through NPS/on-call contracts, which can resemble flood recovery work in schedule and time to complete. We have an extensive history of successfully delivering these contracts and are proud of our track record as the prime consultant for on -call services contracts since Atkins I Proposal for Weld County Engineering Services Related to the 2013 Flood Recovery 16,' Together, we will assess the following elements for the channel and structure(s): • Data collected including existing bridge plans and inspection reports • Condition of the existing structure ny evaluating the damage and stability • Whether to. restore the channel to its original state or leave in its current new alignment • Geotechnical conditions • Scour conditions • How to reinforce the channel or determine whether reinforcement is adequate for the new conditions • Floodplain modeling (using HEC-RAS) Beyond the structure, we will assess: • The roadway and its erosion control. • Surveying and mapping using GIS to determine the new floodplain. • Financing options whether from FEMA, NRCS, FHWA, and/or state grants. 1998. This work has been delivered consistently and reliably as a result of our commitment to quality services. We understand -the unique nature of on -call and NPS contracts and have built our staff to ensure we have a comprehensive talent pool to respond with rapid, cost- effective service. We focus on two elements to make sure your projects run smoothly and that all stakeholders are involved -a streamlined delivery process and excellent • project coordination. With these two priorities in mind, we have successfully completed or are completing more than 300 task orders to date. 5.2.3 Coordination/communication approach and process Continuous and effective coordination is a key element to ensuring delivery of a flood recovery contract, and is especially critical in the flood recovery plan. development and completion. This will eliminate rework, help advance schedules, and save money. Theseprocesses are centered on a structured communication system that eliminates scheduling conflicts' and resource shortfalls. Our coordination -process involves a proven communication and meeting structure so that all key decision makers are present when required and have the appropriate information to make decisions —minimizing impacts to the schedule. An underlying philosophy is that it is our job to be proactive with respectto communication. For example, while emails are used primarily for distributing information, true communication and coordination must be verbal — including one-on-one meetings, telephone calls, and/or team meetings. Project progress meetings•wiil be used as required or requested. The initial project meeting will be used to verify the scope of work, schedule, budget, and expectations. From previous experience, this meeting is a critical step to unify efforts to accomplish multiple objectives through a single project. Project meetings will be held at scheduled intervals to discuss the project progress and to facilitate coordination on the specific project tasks. Public involvement and citizen organizations. The nature of the County's flood recovery projects with the community requires a communications approach centered on anticipation, proactive updates, and strategies to fully inform the public. Those impacted must feel that our team understands their issues and needs. The County is already doing a good job in updating the public frequently through the Flooding 2013 website. Atkins is ready to assist in these efforts as needed.

Purpose The Weld County Public Works Department is requesting proposals for Engineering Services related to the September 2013 Flood Recovery. The requested services may include all or portions of the following: Topographic and ROW Surveying, Roadway or Bridge Repair Design Drawings, Structural Inspection, Hydrology and Hydraulic Analysis, Environmental Clearances, Preparation of Contract Bid Documents, and Construction Inspection. The projects will include 4 separate "Project Areas", defined by the various river corridors as shown on the attached maps. Each Project Area will include several "Sites" along each of the river corridors. There may be as many as 30 overall sites, each of which will require various engineering services as described above in order to restore the sites to pre -flood conditions and specify mitigation efforts that may prevent future flood damages. Maps of the Project Areas and an inventory of the original damage and emergency repairs to the Sites will be provided to the selected consultants. The Department intends to select one consultant for each Project Area to perform the needed work. NOTE: A site visit will be conducted to a single "Sample Site" which will represent the various improvements that may be required at the other sites. The consultant proposals should explain the various work items recommended for the Sample Site and include a breakout of consultant tasks and hours for the Sample Site. These may or may not apply to the other Sites in the Project Areas. II. Scope of Services Weld County is working with FEMA and FHWA specialists to verify damages to County assets that were damaged during recent flooding. Weld County is in need of professional engineering services which will generally consist of overall plan preparation related to flood repairs, specification preparation, and construction management services. Engineering services will comply with County, State, and Federal regulations. Time is of the essence as Weld County anticipates that high water during spring runoff could cause additional damage to project sites. The Public Works Department is looking for ways to shorten the design process and develop an abbreviated set of construction drawings. General engineering services will include: • Design Surveying (Could include temporary easement descriptions) • Hydrology & Hydraulic analysis required to document repair and mitigation efforts • Flood plain record research to validate flow rates that may be used • Preliminary roadway or bridge design, cost estimates, evaluations, plans, reports and coordination with staff and others • Final design, abbreviated plan set preparation, specifications and design details per CDOT Standards • Geotechnical & Drainage investigation/reports (if needed) • Potholing and utilities coordination & relocation • Environmental assessment study • Construction engineering and inspection services for Federal -funded construction projects as directed 1 NOTE: It is anticipated that the consultants will utilize as much existing floodplain mapping/data as is applicable, so that the time and costs required for any hydrology & hydraulic analysis, etc. will be minimized. A. General Project Description The initial emergency repairs necessary prior to opening the roads to traffic has been completed at all the sites. Engineering Services are now needed to reassess the sites to determine final improvements needed to return the sites to a stable permanent condition and indicate if mitigation efforts may prevent future flood damage. The anticipated repairs may include: Riprap armoring of bridge abutments, Wing wall/Railing/Deck Repairs, Placement of turf reinforcing mats, Temporary and Permanent Erosion Control, Seeding, Sod and asphalt patching/paving and striping as required. Although it is unlikely that construction at all the sites can be accomplished before the spring run-off begins (end of May), the goal will be to prioritize the sites and have bid documents ready to bid as soon as possible for the high priority sites. Weld County anticipates that an abbreviated set of plans for many sites will need to be bid ready by the end of February 2014. This may include small yet concise sets of plans and specifications. B. Project Requirements • Structures inspections and design engineering to repair flood damage to structures and roadways impacted by the September 2013 Flood • Report to the Public Works Department on repair needs within each specified project area • Completion of preliminary estimate of construction, engineering and permitting costs • Topographic and ROW Surveying necessary to complete the scope of services • Engineering design for repair and/or replacement of County road and bridge facilities designed in accordance with Weld County, CDOT and FEMA & FHWA standards and clearances • The consultants may be required to meet a DBE participation goal on the design work associated with the FHWA sites • Bid documents as directed for advertisement of improvements in a manner that meets the reimbursement requirements of either FEMA or FHWA • Environmental, historical, land use, and ROW clearances as required • The consultant will be required to provide construction administration and project management including submittal review, documentation, and continuous full time field inspection for the project per CDOT inspection guidelines. Any required materials testing not provided by the construction contractor will be arranged by the County. • The consultant may also be required to produce "as constructed" drawings at the completion of the project. Final drawings shall also be submitted on CD in PDF format. All material submitted at the completion of the project shall become property of Weld County. C.

Our statement of qualifications showed that Atkins, teamed with Shannon & Wilson, Inc., Pinyon Environmental, Inc. (Pinyon), and Woolpert, Inc., is fully capable of providing the services you need and is eager to continue our successful working relationship with Weld County. Atkins has performed engineering services for Weld County previously and has no issues with providing additional services under Weld County's Standard Contract Agreement. Following the pre -proposal meeting and site visit to WCR 53 (Sample Site), we have added San Engineering to our team. San Engineering will expand our local structural and roadway design staff and also provide additional opportunities to meet or exceed the 10 percent disadvantaged business enterprise (DBE) goal for FHWA bridge locations. Weld County staff should be commended on the condition of the "sample site" (WCR 53 over the South Platte River) following the emergency repairs. Josh Hollon and Andrew Holton, Atkins' project manager and deputy project manager, respectively, reviewed the site and compared the existing conditions to photos taken by Atkins staff immediately following the flood and were impressed with the flow of traffic and condition of the paving. The emergency repairs have restored normal traffic operation; however, additional measures are required to stabilize the sites for upcoming spring runoff events as well as future flooding events. With multiple sites in each project area and a limited construction window, Atkins has developed a plan to expedite design and plan preparation for each site. Our multidisciplined approach includes collaboration among our team's structures, roadway, drainage, geotechnical, and environmental professionals, with oversight and review by emergency management and construction staff.

With 2,700 employees in 70 offices nationwide, Atkins supports a mix of public- and private - sector clients. Perhaps the most significant indicator of Atkins' success is our 90 percent volume of repeat business, which reflects our clients' satisfaction. We have the breadth and depth of expertise to respond to the most technically challenging and most time -critical infrastructure projects. 1.1 System procedures for scheduling and costing projects Effective project controls are the backbone of project success. Atkins has developed proven controls that will help us maintain project schedules, costs, and quality. 1.1.1 Cost control Realistic budgets must be established at the start of any project. Our project manager and deputy project manager — Josh Hollon and Andrew Holton, respectively —will develop and monitor budgets. Accurate quantities and cost Firm qualifications Staff qualifications Critical issues Suggestions on how to meet accelerated schedules Scope of work for sample site References Sample plan and profile sheet Standard Contract Agreement acceptance Sample site estimate of hours Proposed schedule 14 estimates are crucial to project success, since errors and omissions can cause project delays and additional costs. We have learned through the flood work we have performed thus far that construction estimates have been high due to several factors —lack of staff and equipment and their location in relation to the project sites. Atkins will use that information to assist the County in developing construction estimates. Our project manager, Josh Hollon, and deputy project manager, Andrew Holton, working with our task leads, will carefully develop and monitor the construction estimates and update the County of any significant changes prior to advertisement. Atkins uses Oracle E -Business Suite as our internal project accounting system. Detailed project information can be obtained on a weekly basis to ensure compliance with project budgets and schedules. For each invoice, Atkins will prepare and include monthly progress reports detailing the work completed, anticipated work, and any potential issues. 1.1.2 Schedule control Meeting the schedule is also essential to project success. Josh and Andrew and our task leads will identify key milestones and critical path items at the start of any 0403.37831.1213 Atkins I Proposal for Weld County Engineering Services Relatedto the 2013 Flood Recovery 13 project, and will develop a schedule for all deliverables in coordination with you. We use Microsoft Project to develop and track schedules. Key elements to maintain schedules include: • Factoring in adequate time for Atkins quality control reviews and County reviews. • Setting critical path intermediate milestones such as weather conditions, spring runoff, and the ability to evaluate/inspect project sites in winter conditions. • Developing a recurring internal Atkins team progress meeting date and time to communicate expectations. • Following up on meeting action items. 1.2 QA plan and procedure Our proven five -step approach to QA/QC, as demonstrated in the following QA/QC procedure graphic has one single focus —to consistently provide you quality deliverables. We follow our QA/QC process on all deliverables and submittals, whether it is a complete set of design plans and specifications or a single paragraph technical memorandum. Jerry Waterman will ensure that our QA/QC process takes place by assigning a QC reviewer with appropriate expertise to each task/project. 2.

He also has experience in conceptual design for large EA and EIS projects, giving him a full understanding of the environmental considerations involved in roadway projects. As a result of his diverse experience, he has a complete understanding of FHWA/Colorado Department of Transportation (CDOT) design standards and the full project development cycle, including scoping. Andrew's recent work in Region 4 involved managing the widening of a 2 -mile segment of US 287 from SH 1 to LaPorte Bypass, so he is familiar with regional requirements. He will apply this expertise to Weld County's emergency repair projects so that roadway improvements are made expeditiously and to County and state standards. Dan Liddle, PE Principal -in -Charge Dan Liddle has 22 years of experience in all aspects of transportation improvement projects including transit, rural and urban arterials, collector roadways, and freeways. His expertise includes reconstruction and widening of existing roadways and new roadways on new alignments for numerous municipalities, FHWA, and CDOT on projects statewide. Dan is managing the extension of WCR 49, a nearly 3 -mile roadway with multiple intersections, ditches, and floodplain considerations, and will use his extensive roadway design expertise and knowledge of Weld County issues and goals so that you receive exemplary service that exceeds your expectations. Wayne Floyd Emergency Management Task Lead Wayne Floyd has 35 years of experience in all phases of disaster management with extensive expertise in debris management and environmental health hazards associated with natural disasters, including coordination with FEMA, FHWA, and the Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS). He has managed emergency recovery efforts nationwide in response to natural disasters associated with flooding, wildfires, hurricanes, and tornadoes. Locally, Wayne served as Atkins' emergency management lead for the SH 72 rehabilitation efforts in CDOT Region 1. This 18 -mile -long project was funded by FHWA and FEMA emergency funds and involved evaluation of an 18 -mile roadway segment wherein 5 miles were severely damaged and impassable. Wayne has worked with emergency management agencies at the local, state, and federal levels to successfully develop 404 and 406 mitigation proposals, developing environmental reports and damage survey reports, and providing contract management oversight. His in-depth knowledge of federal requirements will help the County maximize the funding available for its projects. 3.2 Subconsultants Shannon & Wilson Inc. Geotechnical Shannon & Wilson has been involved in emergency and permanent repairs to roadways and embankments damaged during the September floods, including US 34 and SH 72 for CDOT, Kneale Road for Denver Water, and repairs to BNSF and UPRR embankments throughout northern Colorado. Through this experience, as well as decades of similar work throughout the country, Shannon & Wilson understands the urgent need to evaluate the repaired embankments to determine whether they are satisfactory in the current condition, if surficial treatment is required for reliable pavement performance, or if more significant removal and replacement is warranted. This understanding is necessary for Weld County to make an informed decision on risk and cost management, as well as to support requests for funding from federal agencies that may not be available in the future. Woolpert, Inc. Surveying/Right-of-Way Woolpert has provided post -flood survey and design support to Atkins for Weld County projects and will be a vital member of the design team. Right-of-way (ROW) identification and expedited ROW/easement acquisition is expected to be a critical path item to allow for construction of the final improvements and possible mitigation measures. Woolpert's knowledge of the flood -damaged areas and working relationship with Atkins will expedite the survey and ROW process. 3.2.1 DBE firms Although this project does not have a DBE goal, the FHWA sites will require DBE goals for full reimbursement. Atkins supports this initiative and our DBE partners will be active throughout our work to easily achieve the County's DBE goal. Atkins has consistently achieved or exceeded the DBE goal set for other projects on which we have worked. To support this effort, we have teamed with two qualified DBE firms, Pinyon and San Engineering. ur mom._ WOOLPEPT 0403.37831:1213 Atkins I Proposal for Weld County Engineering Services Related to the 2013 Flood Recovery 16 Pinyon Environmental, Inc.

As a DBE, San will help this team meet and exceed DBE goals for FHWA sites. Atkins and San have teamed on numerous projects throughout Colorado, and this trusted relationship allows for efficient design coordination and flexible workloads. If at any point during the design it appears the design team may not meet DBE goals for the FHWA sites, San will be able to increase their workloads in multiple disciplines to help ensure federal reimbursements. Pinyon 4. Perform: nce on similar projects This section illustrates our team's experience and qualifications in completing flood recovery, bridge and structure design, road design, surveying and mapping, CAD/plan preparation, and construction management and construction observation and inspection services. Specific to flood recovery efforts, Atkins has extensive and exclusive capabilities in post -flood mapping activities. For example, the Colorado Water Conservation Board (CWCB) has flown LiDAR for many of the flood -affected rivers and communities throughout Weld County, as shown in the image below. Using this information, Atkins' automated floodplain mapping systems can quickly and efficiently identify changes in flooding risks caused by channel migrations during the September floods. This automated mapping can provide quick identification of new flood risks, support future design efforts, and provide additional floodplain management tools. Atkins' relationship with CWCB, combined with our automated floodplain mapping systems, will provide Weld County with post -flood risk assessment very quickly and with minimal cost to the County. 2013 Colorado Floods — SH 72 Coal Creek Canyon Emergency Project Design and Construction Management Project highlights • Emergency response (flood recovery) • Fast -track schedule • Road design (hydraulic design) • Construction management Client contact CDOT Region 1 Chris Paiz.

Atkins immediately mobilized, reviewing and walking the project site, working with CDOT to prepare bid documents, showing the site to contractors, explaining the bidding process, and modifying final bid documents, all within 48 hours. As CDOT and the Atkins project manager were preparing and accepting bids from contractors, Atkins designers continued to survey the project site, meet with utility companies, and prepare a preliminary plan of action with typical sections, working continuously through the days, evenings, and weekend. Less than 1 week after Atkins' assistance was requested, the contractor started work to repair the damaged roadway and opened controlled access for those living in the construction corridor. Atkins worked side by side with CDOT and the contractor, preparing additional documents as needed. This project was funded by FHWA and FEMA emergency funds, which required that project documentation be kept separate and independent. Atkins ensured that the documentation was updated daily and estimates were paid every 2 weeks, as requested by the contractor. During the federal review process, FEMA confirmed that the documentation met or exceeded FEMA requirements. Since the flooding caused major environmental damage, Atkins implemented proper controls and corrective actions to protect the environment and mitigate damage. Because our team was proactive in planning and executing these potential issues during the repair work, construction remained on a fast -track schedule. Items such as debris removal, redirecting the stream with dikes, and other appropriate measures were performed with the stream/road restoration and as the riprap was being placed. The riprap- faced slopes help prevent erosion into the stream, and the corridor is being seeded and mulched to provide further erosion control. 0403 37831:1213'. Atkins I Proposal for Weld County Engineering. Services Related to the 2013 Flood Recovery,I 7. Several key stakeholders were involved in this project including CDOT, Atkins, the contractor, utilities, and local residents. Excel Gas was a major stakeholder since its gas line had to be rebuilt within the roadway template for the entire corridor, which required close coordination. A team atmosphere was established early on with all stakeholders, creating a synergy for efficiently completing a successful project within a very short time frame. The team developed many creative ideas by working together closely, resulting in quicker construction and a quality final product that will stand up to future flooding. The finished roadway was opened to all traffic in just under 2 months. 2O13 Colorado Floods — Longmont Structure Assessments Project highlights • Emergency response (flood recovery) • Fast -track schedule • Structure assessment Client contact City of Longmont Tom Street T: 303.651.8694 F: 303.651.8590 Value $17,900 (fee) Status Completed November 2013 In September 2013, following the severe flooding in Colorado, the City of Longmont contacted Atkins to request help with structure assessments within flood -damaged areas. The City needed a consultant to perform assessments in order to decide which routes could safely be reopened to residents. Atkins had coincidentally performed a site visit as part of a reconstruction project the Friday before the flooding for the two bridges over the St. Vrain River, which received extensive flood damage. These bridges are undersized for a large flood event, as was made evident. Working quickly to respond to the emergency, the Atkins team performed visual cursory structure assessments on 16 river and creek crossings (bridges and box culverts), eight pedestrian crossings, and the adjacent trails and roadways, all within a 36 -hour period. As the water was still high, these assessments were based on what could actually be seen. With Atkins' feedback, the City of Longmont was able to open multiple routes from north to south that had previously been closed. During the next few days, Atkins also wrote brief memos to help the City determine funding options and document the impacts of the floods for FEMA. Based on a follow-up site visit, Atkins recommended, and the City of Longmont approved, another more detailed structural and scour assessment of the Main Street bridge. The team was able to view more of the bridge's components, including its spread footings, once the water had receded. Atkins recorded the depth of the scour caused by the flooding and made recommendations for temporary erosion protection, since the bridge is scheduled to be replaced later in 2014. Countermeasures were recommended in case of another flood event or heavy spring runoff. A sanitary sewer that ran underneath the bridge was also damaged, and Atkins is working on both the temporary and permanent repair with City of Longmont staff.

Project undeestan ing an approach for sample site Project delivery organization f�Ya�5°sr „�l C -'Design Program Management Josh Holton, PE, CFM Plan Production Andrew Holton, PE Atkins has structured our team to maximize staff resources through a synchronized approach that enables us to provide efficiencies that will reduce costs and meet expedited schedules. This will be achieved through collaboration among specialized disciplines and coordination of plan production and constructability review, all while taking into consideration the requirements that must be met for reimbursement. Key areas of concern • Spring runoff/thaw • Feasibility of inspection (channel, riprap, scour) Atkins' project manager, Josh Hollon, and deputy project manager, Andrew Holton, attended the pre -proposal meeting and visited the sample site (WCR 53 over the South Platte River) to view the condition of the emergency repairs and to identify typical work items that may be recommended for this project at other sites. Atkins' staff also had the opportunity to review this site immediately after the flooding, and Weld County staff should be commended on the quick repair of this heavily travelled roadway. The roadway section and travelway appeared to be in very good condition and traffic was flowing freely during our site visit. The emergency repairs refilled and paved the eroded roadway approaches and the failed southern abutment, which allowed WCR 53 to open to traffic. However, further stabilization is required to ensure long-term stability and protection of WCR WCR 53, looking south WCR 53 looking north from toward the South Platte River WCR 388 53, and refined grading is required to restore the roadway and embankments to stable and safe conditions. In addition to our understanding of conditions at the sample site and at other sites throughout Weld County that were affected by the recent floods, Atkins has a thorough understanding of Weld County's needs and requirements based on our current work on WCR 49. For example, we already know that Weld County uses AutoCAD Civil 3D for its design work, and we have set up files that incorporate your standards. Furthermore, Atkins is up-to-date on current FHWA and AASHTO standards and will incorporate all relevant federal, state, and local standards into our design, as appropriate. This knowledge means that there is no learning curve for the Atkins team, and we can hit the ground running to evaluate and design improvements to flood -affected roadways. Atkins has provided an overall project approach to successfully deliver construction documents for multiple sites by the end of February. We have also prepared a site -specific approach to identify the design disciplines that may be needed for typical sites and the work items they may require. This approach demonstrates how our team will perform interdiscipline design elements to provide an efficient and economical design for final improvements and help ensure federal (and other) reimbursement. FEMA reimbursement FEMA has two types of work eligible for reimbursement through a Public Assistance grant —emergency work and permanent work. Each is divided into categories. Weld County is concerned with two of these categories, specifically: • Category B: Emergency protective measures, which involve actions taken to save lives, protect public health and safety, and prevent damage to improved property. • Category C Roads and bridges, which is considered, permanent work and involves permanent repair or replacement of roads and bridges. Members of our team are familiar with these criteria, having performed flood recovery work for Jefferson County on SH 72 and the City of Longmont on structure assessments. 0403.37831.1213 Atkins I Proposal for Weld County Engineering Services Related to the 2013 Flood Recovery I 11'x.. Critical issues Issue Solution ROW impacts Potential need for easements or additional ROW Identify ROW constraints early and coordinate preliminary design impacts with ROW/easement development. Identify schedule limitations and provide temporary improvements without ROW impacts to protect against spring runoff. Our team has performed post -flood assessments and inspections in high water and has established procedures to complete assessments in difficult conditions. Additionally, Atkins' staff includes experienced traffic engineers who can provide assistance with development of traffic control plans to safely provide our team access to the travel lanes while minimizing traffic disruption. Atkins has developed a preliminary project schedule to provide abbreviated plan sets and construction documents by the end of February. Our experience with providing similar plan sets and the associated construction inspection for SH 72 helps ensure that our construction documents provide sufficient information for the contractor to quickly construct the project improvements. Atkins' collaborative design process includes review and oversight by Pinyon Environmental. As designs are developed, design staff will coordinate with Pinyon staff to identify potential impacts. Pinyon will determine schedule impacts as design is developed and, if impacts cannot be avoided and special permitting (other than CE) is needed, provide temporary improvements without environmental impacts to protect against spring runoff. Atkins provides federal disaster response throughout the county and had several staff members in Weld County immediately following the September flood event. They are familiar with Weld County and highly experienced with the federal reimbursement process. These individuals have provided similar federal reimbursement support to Jefferson County for SH 72. Access for inspection Water levels and traffic could hinder inspections Construction schedule Construction for critical infrastructure complete before spring runoff Permitting Environmental permitting clearance could delay construction Federal reimbursement Federal procedures and requirements can create complexities in project controls 5.1 Site assessment and design file preparation Development of the design to return WCR 53 to stable, permanent conditions will begin with a detailed site investigation by the key discipline leads. Roadway, geotechnical, structures and hydraulic engineers will visit the site and review the existing, post -flood repaired condition. During this assessment, the team will also observe existing conditions that my warrant future mitigation measures to include with the design. While the multidiscipline assessment team is assessing the site, other members of Atkins' design team will compile design reference files, including but not limited to the following: • ROW • Existing roadway design • Bridge as-builts and prior inspection reports Atkins structure staff will review possible deficiencies in the emergency repairs to help ensure long-term stability of each structure. Expected work items: visual inspection of bridge and culverts, identification of structural deficiencies, design of remediation measures 0403.3783112 3 Atkins I Proposal for Weld County Engineering Services Related o the 2013 Flood Recovery 112 • Existing hydraulic models • Preliminary wetland mapping • Post -flood LiDAR Preparation of these files will give the design team working files to immediately start development of preliminary design for final stabilization and possible risk mitigation. 5.2 Critical path identification Upon completion of the site assessment and compilation of available reference materials, Atkins will identify the critical path items that could delay delivery of construction documents by the end of February. We will also identify possible permitting and ROW delays that could impact construction of proposed improvements before the spring runoff events. Following the team's identification of the critical path, Josh Hollon will coordinate with Weld County Public Works staff to discuss our schedule for developing design and delivery of the construction documents. 5.3 Interdiscipline design Following identification of the critical path items and establishment of the overall design and delivery schedule, each discipline lead will direct his or her staff to proceed with development of preliminary designs. Josh Hollon will oversee each discipline design to track design progress and help ensure interdiscipline coordination. With the condensed schedule, we expect the preliminary designs to take no more than 1 week. Although our preliminary designs will include collaboration with other team members, the core design team will convene for an interdiscipline design review meeting to discuss the interaction of each discipline, permitting for potential impacts, finding efficiencies to reduce project cost, ROW and adjacent property impacts, federal project reimbursement requirements, and other constraints that must be addressed. Design will progress with input gathered at the meeting to finalize discipline specific designs. Atkins will review the emergency roadway repairs and identify additional grading, paving and safety improvements to provide a stable permanent condition. Expected work items: grading plans, paving plans, safety improvements 5.4 Geotechnical inspection While many of the repaired areas may currently appear stable, there is a risk the observed embankment stability may be temporary due to the nature of the emergency repairs as well as uncertainty with groundwater levels, which likely Geotechnical staff from Shannon & Wilson will review geotechnical and pavement improvements, especially in areas such as WCR 53 that have extreme truck traffic. Expected work items: pavement assessment, slope stability, review of existing roadway embankment compaction will increase again during the spring runoff. To mitigate this risk, the Atkins team will conduct brief interviews with those involved in the process and, using the information gathered, will provide an opinion about the long-term slope stability and subgrade conditions for new pavements. We anticipate developing a geotechnical site matrix to identify locations that may have the highest risk for poor performance and may require intervention before spring runoff. These sites will be prioritized for mitigation before lower -risk sites. 5.5 Plan production As each discipline finalizes its designs, Andrew Holton, deputy project manager, will prepare the preliminary construction documents including plan sets, specifications, R.13723.8 *AM.

RS.13721 oh„o.oa.v etho SOCOMMI Legend Atkins will use existing hydraulic studies, such as the USACE HEC-RAS model of South Platte River, to expedite hydraulic analysis of the existing structure and proposed mitigation measures. Expected work items: hydraulic analysis of the South Platte River, scour analysis, design of riprap armoring, design of spur dike for the south abutment, design of permanent erosion control best management practices (BMP), design of relief culverts/structures Atkins I Proposal for Weld County Engineering Services Related to the 2013 Flood Recovery 113 The Atkins team includes Woolpert and our in-house staff located in Denver to support identification of and coordination with ROW issues. Expected work items: identification of existing ROW, identification and coordination for possible temporary easements and quantities. These preliminary plan sets will be reviewed so that the design elements are conveyed and quantities are accurately tracked, and future construction contractors will be able to implement the design in a timely manner. Andrew will also coordinate a final constructability review by Atkins' construction management staff to further facilitate Weld County's compressed schedule. Andrew will also leverage the experiences gained during Atkins' SH 72 post -flood repairs to prepare the "abbreviated" plan set for WCR 53. Finally, Andrew will coordinate with Wayne Floyd and other Atkins federal disaster response experts to help ensure that the contract documents and bid items maximize the federal reimbursement. 5.6 Bidding assistance Along with delivery of the construction documents, Atkins can support County staff with the multiple projects to be bid. If additional bid items must be included in certain packages to separate additional emergency repairs from future flood damage mitigation, Atkins federal disaster response experts can provide guidance. 5.7 Construction inspection Atkins will fully support the implementation and construction of our design. We offer construction inspectors and construction managers who can provide full-time services to help ensure timely construction, documentation for federal reimbursement, and coordination between design staff and construction crews to minimize delays. Our construction management staff fully understands the limited construction window for these repairs/improvements and will work with design staff, County staff, and the contractor to expedite construction activities. The Atkins team includes environmental staff from Pinyon. Pinyon's participation will help our team meet or exceed DBE goals for FWHA sites. Expected work items: identification of impacts, assessment of proposed design, environmental permitting, and revegetation plans Atkins' construction management staff will provide full support during construction of the proposed improvements. Expected work items: constructability review of design, construction inspection, documentation for federal reimbursement Atkins will review damage to utilities located in the roadway section and coordinate avoidance, relocation, and or removal to accommodate our design. Expected work items: utility coordination 0403.37831.1213 Atkins I Proposal for Weld County Engineering Services Related to the 2013 Flood Recovery 114 Sample site estimate of hours The information below is an estimate of hours to provide the requested service for the sample site (WCR 53 at South Platte). Atkins fully expects to build in efficiencies by providing similar services for multiple sites within the affected project areas and reduce the overall hours per site by providing similar services for multiple sites within our project area.
