Our existing contract requires us to provide c~ne year of pre-construction (baseline) monitoring and four years of post-construction monitoring. Dela~ s in the constructi~n of the Packery Channel project have resulted in the accutnulation of` t~~~o years of baseline data. Meetings between the City, HDR~Shiner Moseley, and the 'V~ollie Beattie `Vlanagement Team have resulted in the decision that two years of hase~ine monitoring and 3 years of post-construction moni~toring will be acceptable. (See attac~ed letter from Texas General Land Office) Monitoring seasons for ~'ear 1('vov i)3-Mar. 04) and Year 2(Nov. 04-Mar. OS) have been completed. '~he City, HDR~Shiner Moseley, and the Mollie Beattie Management Team have agreed that due ta the delay in cc~nstruction of Packery Channel, no monitoring should occur f`rom November ?005 to 'vlarch 2006. Monitoring has resumed in November 2006 with Year 3 (Nc7v. (}b-Mar. 0?> and ~~~ill end ~n March 2009 (Year 4 will be Nov. 07-Mar. 0$ and Year 5 ~~~ill be ti~v. 08-Mar. ~9). We request that our contract with the City be amended to reflect this revised project sehedule ( See Exhibit A-2). ~s vou know, the Corps' contractor was delayed in finishing construction of the project. When the time catne for the second year z~f monitoring. the Corps was not finished. We probably should have stopped the process tu get clarification from the Management Team on whether to _ _.~_. __ _ _~ . proceed ti~ith Year ? or delay a year, b~rt because we had planned the work as five sequential years, thi~ thought did not accur t~} us. We did Year ~ in sequence. Subsequently, this was c~uestion~d, and~ it was realized that an agreemenr_ with the Management Team on whether or not to pr«eeed with Y'ear ? should have been obtained. We t~en worked tc~ get the aiter-the-fact concurrence of the Management Team for what was done, The Year 2 monitoring was approved by the Team, and they welcomed it as additional conf~nation of the baseline data. Skipping the next year to wait for the construction AMD.

Our fees for the effort to wark this out with the Team were on the arder ~~f $l 5,O00. These were absorbed by us without cost to the City.~ ~ ~~'hen ~~~e developed our c~riginal ~roposal for the City, the costs were based upon doing each } ear in >equence. An a1low~tnce was built in for escalation cost each year through the fifth year. Our annual cost increases for salaries, insurance, rent, etc needed to be addressed. This was f~etored into the price we agreed tr~ in the contract. We did not build in unknown additional escal~tion cc~sts on the cl~ance that the project might be delayed. It was assumed that the cantractor would meet his schedule and there would be no skipping of years. As a result, as the last t~ee y~trs were all mc~ved back b~ a year, we are faced with an additional year of esca,~i€#ion c~sts through no fau~t of our own. In ]ooking back, if ~~re had stopped work before beginning Year 2 to obtain Management Team ~ concurrence on whether tc~ proceed~ we would have requested additional funding from the City fi}r tl~ese ~Zegotiatic~ns. The effort ~~ould have been similar to what was expended to get the after-~e-fact approval, or about $ i~,00C), We would ihen have requested that the escalated c~sts be covered. but there would have been an extra year to be escalated. Because we spent our own money to ~~rork ~~ith the ~~~cam <m concui•rence for skipping the year, ~the City was saved tl~is $15,000 expense_ The e~;calation costs woutd have been requested in either case. We submitted a request t~: amend tllis ~ontract on February 17. 2006 (enclosed). A proposal for a~ditional fees resulting f~rom the ~~elaved project schedule was included in the February 2006 request. While an annual escalation rate was not formally identified in~ our contract, each year was priced to accoun or~increasec~costs o~ing~iusiness. We are requeshng ath t the City accept th~s proposal to i~~crease Iees tor Monitoring Years 3. 4, and 5 to compensate for increased costs. ~r c>ur Feb 2006 ~roposal, we requested an additional $16,161 for Ye~ars 3, 4, and 5. :~~ter speakin~ wi!h Mr. "I~,~m 1.ltter of the Ciry, we reluctantly agreed to reduce this to an additional $I1.300. Vve are re~uesting that the City authorize an additional $11,300 for Y`ears ~_ a. and 5. (See Summarv c~t~Fees in Exhihit A-2) In additic~n, we have recently been asked to perform additional work that is outside of the Scope c~f Services descrihed in this cc~ntract. In a July 0, 2006 meeting with Ms. Carolyn Murphy and Dr. Terry Roberts of I.S. :~rmy Corps of Engineers, it was decided that additional sur~~ey data should be collected a]ong two prev~ously surveyed transects. Tom Utter was in attendance and asked HDR~Shiner Moseley to provide him with a proposal for the additional sur~ eys ~ proposal for this work and ihe additional fees for project delays was submitted to '~~r.

An elevation and a GPS point will be taken at each of the data points that were surveyed during Baseline Year l Elevations will be recorded in NAVD 88.
