designed with a restored - stream, low -flow channel compliant with Corps of <br />Engineers requirements for 404 Permitting. Loomis will develop a hydraulic <br />model of the proposed channel configuration. Construction plans will include <br />general notes, plan and profile sheets for channel modifications, revised <br />floodplain boundary locations, utilities relocation specifications, construction <br />details, culvert designs at McKie, LBJ, Patton and Ellis (if required), natural <br />channel restoration design downstream of Guadalupe, erosion and <br />sedimentation control sheets, proposed hike and bike trail alignment (if <br />required), and other planning, design and costing elements. <br />3. Corps Permitting — The previously developed and submitted PCN application <br />for Corps of Engineers 404 permitting will be revised to exclude stream <br />restorations upstream of Guadalupe (total avoidance of Corps jurisdictional <br />waters) and will be re- submitted to the Corps. Corps comments will be <br />addressed. This task assumes no more than two comment response <br />iterations and that a Corps 404 permit will be obtained. <br />4. FEMA Permitting — Loomis will prepare a FEMA Letter of Map Revision <br />Application and, upon completion of the channel project, will submit the <br />LOMR and address FEMA comments. This task assumes a supplemental <br />FEMA submittal will be provided at the conclusion of construction of the <br />bridge under separate contract. <br />5. Technical specifications will be prepared for the project based on City of San <br />Marcos standards, Corps of Engineers requirements for restored stream <br />channels, TxDOT requirements, and TCEQ requirements for construction - <br />phase erosion controls. Loomis will coordinate with the City to incorporate <br />front end and contract documents to the final bid document set. <br />6. Loomis will provide 60% and 90% submittals to the City of San Marcos for <br />review and comment. Submittals will include two sets of full size drawings at <br />each submittal phase, and technical specifications at the 90% submittal. The <br />final submittal will include one full size set of reproducible construction plans, <br />a complete set of contract documents and technical specifications, one <br />electronic set (CAD and PDF) of construction plans, contract documents and <br />technical specifications. <br />7. An updated construction cost estimate will be provided at each submittal. <br />8. Quality Assurance / Quality Control — The QA/QC task will include <br />independent review of the work at various stages of progress as well as <br />review of all materials to be submitted. <br />9. Final Design Report — A final design report will be submitted to the City <br />detailing the channel design decision process, HEC -HMS and HEC -RAS <br />models with backup for selection of hydrologic and hydraulic parameters, <br />specifications for restored channel design, and FEMA submittal materials. <br />
