This effort includes providing the City and Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ) with the additional water system analysis and modeling methodology and assumptions as a result of the July 8, 2011 meeting with TCEQ in an Engineering Letter Report with the purpose of determining proper elevated storage tank locations and providing an implementation plan for constructing the elevated storage tanks as required up till 2025. The configuration of elevated storage tanks as determined in this project will also be used to support the City's request for an Alternative Capacity Requirement (ACR) for elevated storage in the City's distribution system. These services were requested by the Operating Department. Scope of Services: The Scope of Services for this contract is comprised of the following tasks: A. Basic Services 1. Preliminary Phase — TBD. 2. Design Phase — TBD 3. Bid Phase — TBD 4. Construction Phase — TBD B. Additional Services 1. Permitting -- TBD. 2. Right -of -Way (ROW) Acquisition Survey — TBD. 3.

Provide SCADA Documentation — TBD 9. Siting Evaluation and Recommendations — TBD. 10. Pressure and Water Age Evaluation — TBD. 11. 2025 Scenarios & Surge Analysis — ACR for Elev. Storage i) Provide the additional modeling effort to include the Year 2025 scenario. This scenario will include all 2025 Elevated Storage tanks. ii) Provide 2025 demand projections and include the results of the four (4) scenarios requested by TCEQ and described in further detail in Sections 11.1 -11.4 below for the future 2025 demand conditions. 11.1 Modeling Requirements i) Apply growth projection analysis to identify the Average Annual Demand (AAD) for each customer by projecting the current demands to the year 2025. This will be determined by analyzing the estimated projections obtained from the 2006 Texas Water Development Board's (TWDB's) Regional Water Planning Data. ii) Calculate the projected maximum daily demand (MDD) and peak hourly demand (PHD) based upon the trend found above by applying factors historically determined from water department records and TCEQ Rules and Regulations to the demands allocated in the existing model. For the Purpose of this ACR, TCEQ has allowed the City to exclude the demands associated with STWA, NCWCID#4, and SPMWD since the system does not provide_ pressure maintenance for these systems. iii) Based on an 18.4% increase in water demands calculated from the TWDB's Regional Water Planning Data, the following forecasted demands will be allocated to the model: Demand Existing* Yr 2025* Average Annual Demand 43,300 gpm 52,050 gpm AAD 63 MGD 75 MGD Peak Hour Demand 114,650 gpm 136,700 gpm PHD 166 MGD 197 MGD 1.5 gpm 1 Connection 185,100 gpm 219,900 gpm Demand 267 MGD 317 MGD * Demands exclude wholesale customers (STWA, NCWCID#4, and SPMWD) which the City does not provide pressure maintenance for. The demands also do not include the Padre Island Pressure Zone which receives pressure maintenance from the Sand Dollar Pump Station. iv) Geographically allocate the additional demands to the forecasted growth areas indicated by the 1995 -2008 platting data in the City's Draft Water Transmission Master Plan. Meet with the City's planning department to confirm areas of population growth. AMEND. NO. 1 EXHIBIT "A" Page 2 of 7 11.2 2025 System Simulation at Peak Hour Demand (PHD) during Normal Operating Conditions This task addresses the following comment in the April 6, 2009 letter from TCEQ. "The design under normal operating conditions must be sized, designed and capable of providing at least 35 psi at all points in the distribution at flow rates of at least 1.5 gpm per connection. (If a public water system's peak hour demand is greater than 1.5 gpm per connection, then the system must be sized, designed and capable of meeting the actual peak hour demand.)" • 1.5 gpm 1 connection = As Determined in Section 11.1 • ONSWTP System Actual PHD = As Determined in Section 11.1 i) Based on the projection analysis described in Section 1.1 above, allocate both demands to the model in two separate scenarios to satisfy 1 . gpm /connection from TCEQ Rules and Regulations §290.45 (g)(5)(A)(i) as well as ONSWTP system actual PHD to provide consistency in comparing each modeled scenario. ii) Perform the steady -state hydraulic simulation to confirm that under normal operating conditions, at least 35 psi is maintained at all points in the distribution system at the PHDs described above. All booster pump stations will be in service. This simulation will be performed for the 2025 scenario for both demand_ scenarios (2 model runs) iii) Provide justification for reasons the ONSWTP's actual Peak Hour Demand should be used. iv) Create a color coded exhibit identifying the pressure at every node in the distribution system for this simulation. 11.3 2025 System Emergency Power Hydraulic Simulation at Average Daily Demand (ADD) This task addresses the following comment in the April 6, 2009 letter from TCEQ. "Hydraulic simulation with emergency onsite generated power with automatic switchover simulated. This should demonstrate that the system can provide 0.35 gpm per connection or average daily demand, whichever is greater and provide 0.35 gpm per connection to storage with operation of only facilities powered by onsite emergency generators. The onsite emergency power facilities must power sufficient production, pumping and treatment facilities to provide 0.35 gpm per connection to storage." "in addition, the emergency hydraulic simulation should include a surge analysis to determine the high and low transient pressures that occur during an emergency pump shutdown." • 0.35 gpm 1 connection = As Determined in Section 11.1 • 0.35 gpm 1 connection to storage = As Determined in Section 11.1 - demand at storage facilities will be applied to the steady -state model • ONSWTP System ADD = As Determined in Section 11.1 • No booster pump stations will be in service. i) Perform the steady -state hydraulic simulation to confirm that under emergency power conditions, at least 35 psi is maintained at all points in the distribution system at the AAD determined for each scenario along with providing an additional 0.35 gpm per connection to the System's storage facilities. No booster pump stations will be in service. This simulation will be performed for the year 2025 scenario ii) Create a color coded exhibit identifying the pressure at every node in the distribution system for this simulation. AMEND. NO. 1 EXHIBIT "A" Page 3 of 7 11.4 2025 System Power Loss at Peak Hour Demand (PHD) This task addresses the following comment in the April 6, 2009 letter from TCEQ. "A hydraulic analysis for each pressure plane must be conducted under peak hour customer demands and include the recorded lag time between loss of normal power and the commencement of emergency power. The analysis must demonstrate that pressures in each pressure plane will not be less than 20 psi. Please note whether the emergency power facilities have automatic switchover controls or are manually started, and note the corresponding time for System staff to power up the onsite emergency power equipment and bring necessary equipment online after the loss of normal power." • The existing onsite emergency power generators at ONSWTP have automatic start -up controls and capabilities. The High Service pumps must be manually re- started once the generators have ramped up to full speed. i} Coordinate with Water Department personnel to accurately determine the maximum realistic duration (lag time) between a power outage and placing the High Service pumps back in service. Obtain the Standard Operating Procedure from Water Department Staff and implement the current procedure into the controls within this scenario of the water model and provide as an attachment to the report. ii) Perform the necessary extended Period hydraulic simulation to show that under a power loss condition, at least 20 psi is maintained at all points in the existing distribution system at the PHD determined for each scenario and for the duration required to place the necessary pumps back in service. The pumps at O.N. Stevens WTP are assumed to be without power until backup generators are put into place and pumps are strategically turned back on. This simulation will be performed for the year 2025 scenario iii} Provide calculations and assumptions in by appendix within a report. Create a color coded exhibit identifying the minimum pressure at every node in the distribution system during the outage duration. 11.5 Surge Analysis (Existing and 2025 System) This task addresses the following comment in the April 6, 2009 letter from TCEQ "in addition, the emergency hydraulic simulation should include a surge analysis to determine the high and low transient pressures that occur during an emergency pump shutdown." i) Transfer the existing water model into the recommended surge software and verify that all controls and attributes have been accurately carried over into the new software. ii) Research and implement industry standard internal diameters and wall thicknesses of each pipe in the model by pipe material and nominal diameter. iii} Surge analysis results will be based on industry standard pipe wall thicknesses; however, it is suspected that slight inaccuracies in wall thickness will have major impacts to the results. Provide a sensitivity analysis of the pipe wall thicknesses and include caveat within the report that the surge analysis results are only subject to the accuracy of the estimated internal pipe diameters. iv) Calculate the wave speed for each pipe using the wave speed calculator in the surge analysis software. AMEND. NO. 1 EXHIBIT "A" Page 4 of 7 V) Provide a workshop with City to determine the surge analysis locations and scenarios further described in Sections 11.5 (vi) and (vii). An allowance of 15 scenarios will be provided. vi) Perform surge analysis where transient events are usually most severe (at pumps stations and control valves, in high elevated areas, at locations of low static pressure, and in remote locations that are distanced from elevated storage). Conduct Analysis and setup profiles to determine the routes which will encompass the critical points in the distribution system. This simulation will be performed for existing and year 2025 scenarios. vii) Perform the analysis and review results for each profile of typical events that require transient considerations: (1) Pump startup and shutdown (i.e. power outage) (2) Valve opening and closing at tanks and in large transmission mains (3) Rapid changes in demand conditions (i.e. hydrant flushing or LVU) (4) Changes in transmission conditions (i.e. main break) viii) Review previously prepared engineering report on system surge by others. ix) Provide calculations and assumptions by appendix within the report. Create a color coded exhibit identifying the critical locations in the distribution system. 11.6 2025 System Implementation Plan i) Develop and select available alternatives for phasing the implementation plan. ii) Analyze modeling results to determine the hierarchy of alternatives selected in Section 11.6 (i) based on hydraulically critical locations and provide a maximum of 4 phases for implementation of the elevated storage and associated boundary modifications. iii) Coordinate with City Water and Engineering Departments to provide a probable construction plan and schedule which includes milestone dates of the City's plan for increased elevated storage capacity and pressures. iv) Provide plan and schedule by appendix within the report. 11.7 Meetings i) Prepare for and conduct five (5) project status meetings not to exceed two (2) hours each with City Water and Engineering Staff approximately every two weeks after specific project milestones. One of the five meetings is to include a dry run meeting with City Engineering and Water staff prior to meeting with TCEQ. ii) Conduct two (2) meetings with TCEQ's oversight and development team not to exceed eight (8) hours (including travel time) each to present model results and submit final revision of the ACR. 11.8 Engineering Letter Report i) Update the variance request letter report, as appropriate for submission to the TCEQ concerning city -wide Alternative Capacity Requirements (ACR) for the elevated storage tank volume component of the ONSWTP system, in response and compliance with TCEQ letter dated April 6, 2010. The variance letter with supporting report will include, but not necessarily be limited to, the following information and sections. AMEND.
