Scope of Services Task A: Progress Meetings and Project Management To remain in regular contact with the District, we plan to have face-to-face meetings with City staff at key points during the project. These meetings will involve reviewing work products and making decisions on future steps. Our team will be available to City staff throughout the project via telephone and email. Our engineers are also available to attend quick meetings on short notice. Schaaf & Wheeler is scoping for ten (4) one hour meetings with the City as well as one (1) Council presentation on the master plan and CIP.

Task B: Drainage Design Standards Schaaf & Wheeler will review the City’s current drainage design standards and criteria and will work with the City to revise and augment these standards to meet existing and future needs. These revisions will make the City standards consitent with methods applied to this master planning effort and flood control measures of agencies which may operate drainage facilities within Half Moon Bay (such as Pilarcitos Creek and Frenchman’s Creek). The new drainage standards will include methods for: •

calculating runoff,



sizing draiange facilities and flood control channels,



determining detention sizing criteria, and more.

Proposed standards will also incorporate current NPDES requirements and other regional standards. A standard policy for on-site detention systems that can be used in the construction of private development projects will be developed. Schaaf & Wheeler is scoping for a draft technical memorandum on revised drainage standards and a finalized version based on review by City staff.

Task C: Develop Capital Improvement Project List System deficiencies identified in Phase I will be mitigated with proposed improvement projects. Improvement projects will be identified using the models developed during Phase I. Improvements may range from pipeline upsizing to new pump stations to ditch improvements. Alternatives for larger projects may be developed to provide flexibility. Condition related improvements will be developed for CMP pipe located within the City right-of-way. Opportunities to combine stormwater management goals with capacity improvements may also be analyzed. Schaaf & Wheeler will work with the City to prioritize improvement projects. A project summary sheet will be created for each major improvement project. These sheets will provide a clear and concise summary of the current problem, improvement components, and construction costs.

Cost Estimating

Schaaf & Wheeler will estimate the cost of each identified CIP project using a combination of unitized costs and site specific details. Contingencies will be added to account for administration, design, and construction management and construction costs. Schaaf & Wheeler has compiled project costs from several storm drainage projects throughout the Bay Area and will utilize that data to develop realistic unitized cost for pipeline, channel, and pump station projects. Schaaf & Wheeler anticipates City’s assistance with cost estimation for easements and land acquisition. CIPs for future land use changes (build out) may also be developed. All improvement costs will be clearly summarized and adjusted to current ENR indices.

Capital Improvement Program and Schedule

Based on the projects and prioritizations, our team will develop a Capital Improvement Program (CIP). The highest priority projects will be scheduled for a construction window the City recommends. The remaining projects will be scheduled over a long-term timeframe. Costs may influences project priority rankings. The proposed CIP may incorporate annual maintenance costs as well as improvement projects to correct maintenance issues.

Task D: Prepare Report Schaaf & Wheeler will produce a complete Phase II draft master plan report that will: •

discuss drainage design standards and design criteria,



document technical methodologies for identifying improvements,



list and prioritize improvement projects,



estimate costs for all improvements,



summarize the recommended CIP,



identify water quality and conservation methodologies that may supplement CIPs, and



identify national, regional, and local regulatory guidelines and requirements that may impact the implementation of CIPs.

The document will be formatted and organized to layer the study information. It will provide a concise overview of the study findings and recommendations in simple non-technical terms with sufficient information for the general public and City officials outside the engineering field, such as Council members. The report will also supply the technical community with detailed implementable information on the drainage system to execute proposed projects. Appendices supplied as a part of the Storm Drain Master Plan may include model results, improvement figures and detailed cost estimates. The report will be supplied in hard copy as well as electronically, in MS Word or PDF format. Schaaf & Wheeler will work with City staff to develop a master plan format that works best for the community. Schaaf & Wheeler submissions will include: •

First Draft Report at the 90% level - including preliminary model results and improvement projects.



Final Report – will be submitted once City comments on the 90% report have been incorporated and the final CIP and project schedule have been developed.

The final report will be submitted to City Council and presented at a formal meeting.
