TASK 3 - Hydraulic Design
 
MWH has completed initial evaluations of the hydraulic performance of the proposed tunnel under previous agreements using the North Branch Chicago River Detailed Watershed Plan model. Under this Agreement, MWH will perform and document the hydraulic analyses ofthe NBCR and the NSC under existing conditions and with the project in place (for the design flow condition) to support review and permitting of the project by stakeholders and regulatory entities. The intent of this analysis is to document the effectiveness ofthe project, the size and location of project components, and conditions in downstream reaches ofthe NBCR and the NSC with and without the proposed project. Specifically, the analyses will determine:
  • the effect of the project on model-predicted flood elevations upstream and downstream ofthe project site on the NBCR and the NSC,
  • the effect of the project on model-predicted flood elevations in the vicinity of the Corps of Engineers ecosystem restoration project at Horner Park,

the effect of the project on model-predictions of the frequency and volume of reversals from the Chicago River to Lake Michigan through the locks at Wilmette and Chicago Harbor, and
 
•   the potential impact ofthe project on water quality conditions in the NBCR and NCS.
 
MWH will also perform a hydraulic analysis ofthe inlet and outlet structures as a basis for final design. The detailed scope for services related to Task 3 is defined below:
  1. MWH will arrange and lead a meeting with representatives from CDOT, MWRD, IDNR, IEPA, and the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers to review the proposed project concept, confirm the scope of hydraulic analyses that need to be performed in support of permitting efforts, and agree on the appropriate models to be used for the analysis. MWH will document results of the meeting in brief meeting notes and distribute them to all participants.
  2. MWH has the existing North Branch Chicago River Detailed Watershed Plan Model. MWH will coordinate with the agencies indicated below to obtain the following additional models and supporting documentation:
    1. Chicago Trunk Sewer Model (most updated version) - Chicago Department of Water Management
  1. Chicago Area Waterway System Model - U.S. Army Corps of Engineers
 
It is assumed that this information can be obtained within 2 weeks ofthe notice to proceed. MWH will notify CDOT if this information cannot be obtained in a timely manner.
  1. MWH will use the models to define existing baseline conditions along the North Branch ofthe Chicago River and the North Shore Channel for the 10-year and 100-year design events as follows:
  1. Flows in the North Branch Chicago River upstream of Beckwith Road (NBCR DWP Model).
  2. Estimated combined sewer overflows to the North Branch Chicago River from sewers in Niles and Morton Grove with TARP full and TARP infinitely available (Estimated).
  3. Estimated combined sewer overflows to the North Branch Chicago River from sewers within the City of Chicago with TARP full and TARP infinitely available (Chicago Trunk Sewer Model).

      1. Albany Park Stormwater Diversion Tunnel in service - TARP Infinitely Available.
  1. Based on the hydraulic analyses, MWH will consider the potential impact of the proposed project on water quality conditions in the NSC and NBCR. No detailed water quality modeling will be performed. Rather, MWH will consider the potential impact of temporary storage on dissolved oxygen levels in the floodwater to be pumped from the tunnel and evaluate cascade aeration as a means for increasing dissolved oxygen levels in the discharge.
  2. MWH will prepare a technical report documenting the effects of the project on upstream and downstream model-predicted flood levels and operation ofthe locks at Wilmette and Chicago Harbor for the release of floodwaters into Lake Michigan. A separate technical report will be prepared to document the hydraulic basis of design for the proposed project. The technical reports will be used as attachments to permit applications that require documentation of hydraulic conditions with and without the project. MWH will prepare and submit five (5) printed copies and one digital copy (pdf format) of each of the draft reports to CDOT for review. Upon receipt of CDOT comments, MWH will prepare and submit twenty (20) printed copies of the reports to CDOT along with one digital copy (pdf format) for its use and distribution with relevant permit applications.
  3. MWH will participate in up to three (3) half-day or shorter meetings with potential permitting agencies to review the results of the hydraulic analysis and address questions. It is assumed that all meetings will be held in downtown Chicago. MWH will prepare minutes for each ofthe meetings and distribute them to all participants.

  1. The inlet and outlet shafts located on Chicago Park District property will be cylindrical with a nominal inside diameter of 20 feet.
  2. A sump will be designed at the invert of the outlet shaft for the submersible dewatering pump. The sump will be designed below the invert of the tunnel and the tunnel will be able to be completely dewatered.
  3. Both the inlet and outlet shafts will be vented and will have hatch access to lower equipment to the bottom ofthe shaft for cleaning and other maintenance.
  4. The inlet weir and outlet structure will each include a trashrack and stop log groves.
  5. The floor of the inlet structure will be constructed of high strength concrete to resist erosion.
  6. The connection from the outlet shaft to the outlet structure will be buried to allow reinstatement ofthe bicycle path following construction.
 
TASK 6 - Dewatering Pump Design
 
MWH will design a pumping system to dewater the tunnel and shafts following a flow diversion through the tunnel when the flow through the diversion tunnel has ceased. Two variable speed submersible pumps will be located in the outlet shaft at the NSC and will be designed to completely dewater the tunnel and shafts by discharging water to the NSC. The dewatering pumps will have a firm capacity of 5 cfs and will operate remotely. It is anticipated that dewatering will be only a periodic occurrence following events of sufficient volume to cause a diversion. Design will include the design of a predesigned building to house the electrical gear including the VFD.

Task 10 - Permitting Assistance
 
Based upon the results ofthe regulatory agency contacts and meetings that took place in September, MWH will prepare draft permit applications for the City. The City will review the draft permit applications and submit the final applications to the appropriate regulatory agencies. The City will be responsible for paying permit fees.
The following permits and consultations are assumed to be required for the proposed project:
  1. MWH will prepare an Individual Permit application for the Joint Permit process (USACE, IDNR, IEPA). The USACE Chicago District is the lead agency for the Joint Permit application process. This permit is anticipated to be triggered by fill within waters ofthe United States (Section 404 ofthe Clean Water Act - CWA) and impacts to navigable water bodies (Section 10 of the Rivers and Harbors Act). Joint permit applications generally need to be accompanied by project drawings that are at least at the 50% design stage - MWH will submit the 60% set. Areas of disturbance and construction methodology need to be clearly described before the draft permit application can be prepared and submitted.
  2. The Individual Permit will require separate coordination with the IEPA for the CWA Section 401 water quality certification. This scope of work assumes that no detailed water quality modeling will be required by the IEPA. Rather, it is anticipated that any concerns regarding water quality can be met through the inclusion of a cascade aeration feature on the discharge ofthe dewatering pump system.
  3. An alternatives analysis will be prepared in accordance with CWA 404(b) (1).
  4. MWH will attend one pre-application meeting for the Joint Permit Application process.
  5. Standard coordination with the United States Fish and Wildlife Services (regarding federally threatened and endangered species), Illinois EcoCAT Database (regarding state-listed sensitive species), State Historic Preservation Office, and SWCS (regarding sedimentation and erosion control plans) will be performed.
  6. MWH will coordinate with the United States Coast Guard concerning navigation in the NSC.
  7. A City of Chicago harbor permit application will be prepared.

8.       If mitigation is required for the project for impacts to streams and/or wetlands, MWH assumes that the City will purchase credits from a mitigation bank or through an appropriate in-lieu fee program. If a permitee-responsible mitigation plan is required, MWH can provide the scope and cost for this additional work at a future date.
 
Deliverables
 
1.      MWH will provide the City with draft permit applications for the following items:
    1. Joint Permit Application (including the wetland delineation report, floristic quality assessment, wildlife habitat assessment, and 404(b)(1) Alternative Analysis)
  1. IEPA 401 WQC
  2. City of Chicago Harbor Permit application
  3. USCG (navigability of NSC during construction and project operation)
2.      MWH will incorporate one round of comments from the City on each
deliverable.
Assumptions
  1. Scope includes one round of City review ofthe draft deliverables.
  2. The scoped effort does not include the preparation of a mitigation plan.
  3. The City will pay permit fees.
    1. No additional field studies will be required. The stream and streambank at the two construction sites will be characterized based upon the results of the wetland delineation report. Additional information about the NBCR and NSC will be requested from MWRD or other public sources (e.g., water quality, stream quality, invertebrates, and fish).
    2. The contractor will prepare the Notice of Intent and Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP) for this project, in accordance with stormwater general construction permit requirements.
    3. The public review period will generate a modest number of comments that require no more than 40 hours of effort for responses.

Task 11 - Constructability Review and Preparation of Class 2 OPCC.
 
MWH will perform a constructability review ofthe 60% design submittal package and will update the Class 3 OPCC (opinion of probable construction cost) prepared for the rock tunnel in June 2013. MWH will also prepare an operating and maintenance plan and estimated operating cost based on the 60% design submittal. At the 98% design, MWH will prepare a Class 2 OPCC for the Albany Park Stormwater Diversion Tunnel.
 
Any opinions of probable construction costs (OPCC) prepared by MWH, including evaluations of the Client's project budget, and/or funding, represent MWH's best judgment as a design professional familiar with the Construction industry. Unless and to the extent otherwise indicated by MWH, such opinions or evaluations are based on upon current market rates for labor, materials and equipment. The Client acknowledges that MWH has no control over the costs of said labor, materials, or equipment, construction contractor's methods of determining bid prices, competitive bidding environments, unidentified field conditions, market conditions, hyper-inflationary or deflationary price cycles, or any other factors that may affect the OPCC, the project budget or negotiating conditions at the time of project execution. Client further acknowledges that the OPCC is a "snapshot" in time and that the reliability of the OPCC will degrade over time. Accordingly MWH does not warrant or represent that construction bids or negotiated prices will not vary from the Client's project budget or MWH's good faith OPCC.
 
The detailed scope is defined below:
  1. Based on the 60% design package, MWH will perform a constructability review of the proposed design and document comments, concerns, suggestions for improving the design, reducing cost/risk, etc. in a technical memorandum for review with CDOT.
  2. Based on the 60% design package, MWH will develop an operating and maintenance plan for the proposed Albany Park Stormwater Diversion Tunnel. The plan will identify proposed operating guidelines for the system as well as maintenance activities that will be required. Descriptions of the required maintenance activities will include an indication ofthe anticipated frequency for each activity as well as special provisions required for the activity.
  3. Based on the 60% design package, MWH will conduct a review of the Class 3 OPCC prepared for the 18-ft diameter rock tunnel in June 2013 and identify any features of the design that would materially impact that OPCC (additions to the scope, changed information regarding subsurface conditions, etc.). MWH will update the Class 3 OPCC to reflect these items. MWH will not update the overall OPCC based on changes in unit prices or other time-related items and the updated OPCC will remain a June 2013 OPCC. The purpose of this effort is to identify potential cost impacts associated with any significant changes.

  3. MWH will support CDOT to prepare technical addenda during the bidding period. Budget is allocated for up to four addenda will be required.
  4. MWH will review and tabulate the bids and provide a recommendation for award.
 
Task 13 - Public Meetings
 
During the design effort, MWH will participate in up to four (4) public meetings related to the Albany Park Stormwater Diversion Tunnel. It is assumed that meetings will be up to 3 hours long and will be held at public facilities in the Albany Park neighborhood. Arrangements for meeting sites, audio-visual equipment, security, etc. will be made by CDOT. For each meeting, MWH will work with CDOT to develop a public notice for the meeting, prepare presentation materials (Powerpoint and up to six 30"x42" display boards), lead a technical presentation during the meeting, participate in responding to questions during the meetings, and document key discussions in a meeting summary document. MWH assumes that CDOT and City of Chicago personnel will issue the meeting notices and also participate in the meetings.
