RE: AMENDMENT NO. 4 TO PROFESSIONAL SERVICES CONTRACT
Oso WRP Infrastructure and Rehabilitation Improvements
City Project E12206
Mr. Edmonds:
Please find Amendment No. 4, which requests: i) budget allocation for the design of various
components of the project originally omitted in the partial NTP for design services that was received
on May 6, 2016, ii) Notice to Proceed (NTP) for bidding and construction phases services on all
project elements designed to date, and iii) increased budget allocation for continued permitting
services associated with renewing the Oso WRP's current TPDES permit.
BACKGROUND
Original Contract
LNV received formal Notice to Proceed (NTP) letters for Preliminary Design and Permitting services
from the City on August 19, 2013 and on February 26, 2014 in the amount of $1,293,283 and
$200,000, respectively, for a total not-to-exceed fee of $1,493,283. The originally scoped
improvements had a construction budget of$63.0M.
Amendment No. 1
On May 14, 2015, LNV received authorization for Amendment No.1, which was a zero-dollar
amendment. The purpose of Amendment No. 1 was to reduce the original Basic Services scope of
work, to add un-scoped Additional Services (Geotechnical Investigation & Permitting tasks) and to
revise the project schedule. The preliminary design, along with the preliminary engineering report
(PER) for 30% design, was completed for the modified scope of work ($56.8M construction budget)
under Amendment No. 1 in November 2014.
Amendment No. 2
On November 6, 2015, LNV received authorization for Amendment No. 2 which documented the
City's decision to further reduce the scope of work associated with the original contract. The new
objective was to address only the most critical needs for reliable wastewater treatment operations at

OFFICE 361 883 1984 I FAX 361.883.1986 I WWW.LNVINC.COM Page 1 of 7
the Oso WRP and the revised construction budget was $37.75M. As a result in the reduction in the
scope of work, the original PER, along with the drawings associated with the 30% design, were
revised to account for the removal/addition and/or revision of various items. In addition, the name of
the project was modified to "Oso Water Reclamation Plant Infrastructure Rehabilitation and
Improvements". In May 20, 2016, the 30% design PER for the reduced scope was completed and
submitted to the City.
Amendment No. 3
On April 13, 2016, LNV received authorization for Amendment No. 3, which was a zero-dollar
amendment. The purpose of Amendment No. 3 was to enable the permitting team to respond to
additional concerns raised by TCEQ by conducting water quality modeling analysis to assess the
impacts of dissolved oxygen (DO) concentrations in the Oso Bay and to ultimately provide
assistance toward a discharge permit renewal from TCEQ.
Partial NTP- May 6, 2016
On May 6, 2016, a partial NTP for the detailed design was received from the City. The purpose of
the partial NTP was to provide engineering design services for the new Lift Station and Headworks
at Oso WRP which had a construction budget of$16.7M. The following items were included in the
partial NTP:
• Replacement of the existing LS1 with a new influent lift station (Sized for 80 MGD,
Pumping Capacity of 60 MGD)
• Replacement of the existing headworks facility with improved screening, grit removal and
flow splitting capabilities (98 MGD)
However, several critical items were inadvertently omitted from the scope of work. The engineering
team recognized that these items must be designed for these facilities to serve their intended
purpose and as a result, put forth the design resources and effort necessary to include these
additional items in the project plans and specifications.
The critical items that were originally omitted from the scope of work but have already designed and
included in the plans and specifications are described in detail in the Amendment 4 section below.

AMENDMENT NO. 4-Scope of Work
The following project elements were originally omitted from the partial NTP on May 6, 2016 but were
required to be designed for the lift station and headworks to serve their intended use. These items
have already been designed and were included in the 90% submittal in November 2016.
• New odor control facility to service the new lift station and headworks facility. This includes the
demolition of the existing system and replacement of existing odor control unit with two(2) new
odor control units (BioTower with carbon polisher and in-ground Biofilter)capable of treating 12,200
cubic feet per minute (cfm)of airflow and high hydrogen sulfide concentrations at a removal
efficiency rate of 99%.
• 42-inch, 48-inch and 54-inch yard piping that connects the existing gravity collection system to the
new lift station and the new headworks to the existing aeration basins
• Two (2)8-ft interceptor manholes and two (2) 16 feet wide by 22 feet long by 15 feet deep junction
boxes that connect the existing gravity system to the proposed wastewater collection system
• 30-inch and 16-inch process drain lines, storm drains, and plant non-potable utilities
• Six (6) new influent ultrasonic meters and three custom concrete metering vaults with access
hatches and gravity drains
• Electrical cable tray and elevated cable tray bridge over plant access road from ECR-5 to
the proposed headworks facility
• Concrete paved access roads from both plant entrances to all major plant facilities
designed for heavy truck traffic associated with sludge, grit and screenings hauling
• Cleaning of existing aeration basins and clarifier inlet channels to remove debris and grit,
which will optimize the wastewater treatment processes at the Oso WRP
BASIC SERVICES:
1. Preliminary Phase- N/A
2. Design Phase - Engineering design of items originally omitted from the Partial NTP
(described above) and additional wastewater treatment process optimization
3. Bid Phase- Bidding services as outlined in previous contract
The bidding services that have been scoped in previous contracts would be provided.
However, these services would only be performed for the project elements that have been
authorized as described above.
4. Construction Phase-Construction administration services as outlined in previous contract
Page 3 of 6 Amend. No.4
801 NAVIGATION I SUITE 300 I CORPUS CHRISTI,TEXAS 78408 Exhibit A
OFFICE 361 883 1984 I FAX 361.883.1986 I WWW.LNVINC.COM Page 3 of 7
The construction administration services that have been scoped in previous contracts would
be provided. However, these services would only be performed for the project elements that
have been authorized as described above.
ADDITIONAL SERVICES:
1. Permitting and Agency Coordination
An additional budget allowance of$110,000 has been requested under Amendment No. 4 to
continue permitting services that were originally provided under Amendment No. 3. The
primary purpose of these permitting services is to respond to the comments and requests
from the EPA with the ultimate objective of reaching a consensus on the contents of the
discharge permit for the Oso WRP. When providing permitting services, the specific tasks
may be fairly well-understood, but the level of the effort required to complete the tasks can
vary significantly. Therefore, the permitting services to be provided in this amendment are
proposed to be performed on a time and material (T&M) basis. The benefit of a T&M contract
is that the City would only pay for the exact work that is performed.
At the conclusion of the work conducted under Amendment No. 3, the EPA was presented
with additional water quality modeling and a proposed DO criterion for the Oso Bay, which
would have kept the water quality characteristics at its current levels. The EPA responded to
the analysis of the Oso Bay, along with the proposed DO criterion, with questions and
concerns surrounding the ability of the proposed DO criterion to ensure the protection of the
Oso Bay and the Corpus Christi Bay. Therefore, the permitting services to be performed
under this amendment include, but are not limited to, the following:
• Preparation of response to comments from the EPA
• Water quality model updates in response to comments from EPA, including data
analysis and interpretation
• Coordination with local environmental groups regarding habitat protection in
areas that are impacted by Oso WRP
• Preparation for and participation in meetings with the EPA and TCEQ
• Preparation of documentation for TCEQ and EPA related to permitting and data
pertaining to water quality standards
While the Engineer trusts that this fee is sufficient to complete the required tasks, the inability
to predict the requirements to be set forth by the EPA or TCEQ may result in a future
contract amendment in the event that the objectives of the permitting services are not
achieved. The Engineer will inform the City if an additional allowance is necessary to
complete any service requested by the City.
