Included in this study is the preparation of preliminary design drawings necessary to depict and promote understanding of the alternative configurations, and support the preparation of preliminary construction cost estimates. Task 1. Field Reconnaissance, Surveying and Mapping Field reconnaissance efforts will serve to familiarize project staff with the study area and identify locations and mechanisms of bank erosion along the LPATH berm from Prospect Road to Timberline Road. The field reconnaissance efforts will also serve to pre-screen alternative protection measures with respect to both constructibility and potential adverse impacts to existing habitat. This task will also include a bathymetric survey to be conducted along the western fringe of the Riverside Ponds (along the LPATH berm) and production of a subsurface topographic map (at a one -foot contour interval) for a 150-foot corridor along the west side of the ponds. This subsurface topography will be merged with the two -foot contours produced as part of the Timberline Road floodplain mapping effort. Aero-Metric, Inc. will produce a digital version ofthe Timberline Road base map, including the ortho-photo and topography, in State. Plane coordinates. A single digital map will be produced that combines the Timberline Road map and the bathymetric survey information. Task 2. Formulation of Alternatives Two primary alternatives will be formulated for protecting the LPATH berm from failure due to both riverine erosion and breaching of the berm due to overtopping flows. The first alternative will consider maintaining the existing magnitude and pattern of spills from the 1w w Poudre River to LPATH. The second alternative will consider the possibility of spilling thet entire LPATH flow over the portion of the berm located directly downstream of Timberline Road. A third alternative will be formulated specifically for lowering berms within the Riverbend Ponds area, with the intention of reducing flooding in the Countryside Neighborhood. Potential beneficial and adverse impacts of each alternative will be identified and qualitatively evaluated. C' n IPork 1, Prov'cssProlecty (_OP7Y'0: $OII 1I17) 1""110, _00± Task 3. Hydraulic Evaluation of Alternatives Hydraulic analyses will be conducted for each of the three alternatives defined as part of Task 2. These analyses will include hydrauli modeling along both the Poudre River and LPATH, as well as specific analyses associated with flows overtopping the LPATH berm. Based on these analyses, hydraulic design parameters associated with each alternative will be defined to optimize the hydraulic function of each alternative while attempting to minimize potential adverse impacts on channelibank stability and the existing floodplain. A final hydraulic analysis will be conducted for each alternative to demonstrate that all local, state and federal floodplain, floodway and product corridor regulations can be met. Task 4. Preparation of Preliminary Design Drawings Preliminary design drawings will be prepared for each alternative at a level of detail necessary to complete preliminary estimates of construction costs. It is anticipated that these drawings will include, plans and profiles of the LPATH berm, and typical sections of the various stabilization measures. Consideration will be given to specific construction Uv techniques that may be required to implement the embankment protection measures. This task will also include the identification of all permitting requirements for each alternative. Preliminary construction cost estimates will be prepared that will include expected costs associated with completion of final design drawings, additional survey data needed to support the final design, acquisition of necessary permits, project administration, and construction contingencies. Task 5. Reporting and Documentation An alternative evaluation and preliminary design report will be prepared that documents the embankment stabilization alternatives and the analyses that support the preliminary design configuration of each alternative. A recommended alternative will be identified. All technical information necessary to document the analyses and design will be included with the report. Preliminary design drawings for each alternative will be included. Task 6. Meetings and Coordination This task will include up to four meetings with City staff in order to discuss the formulation and configuration of alternatives, to conduct a tour of the project site in an effort to promote understanding of physical conditions within the project area, and to present the preliminary design features of each alternative.
