During construction of culvert replacements, WRMA can ALSO assist the County with construction services, scheduling and engineering during construction from mobilization to closeout. Emergency Culvert Failure Engineering Response On many occasions, WRMA has been previously retained by Counties, Towns and Cities to assist staff with responding to emergency culvert failures, and design temporary as well as permanent replacement solutions on a fast -tracked schedule in order to keep major or high traffic volume roadways open. In such cases, Collier County can rely on WRMA responding to such situations at any hour. We have significant experience in the design of culvert replacements, gated control structures on weirs, reinforced concrete retaining walls, water retaining structures, flood alleviation, pumping stations, pipelines, surface and subsurface water drainage systems, spillways work, access improvements and general site infrastructure. WRMA can assist St. Lucie County when Expedited Design Services are Required for Emergency Situations involving Culvert Failures WRMA engineers are very experienced with on -site improvisation that is often required for inaccessible project sites that limit the design options. Often a concrete pipe or culvert solution to a drainage/flood control problem cannot be implemented due to the site location in a remote part of the county. WRMA has worked closely with local contractors to deliver alternate heavy equipment to the site and manufacture a control structure, sediment facility or culvert with lightweight materials such as HDPE, DuroMaxx steel -reinforced polyethylene (SRPE) pipe, aluminum or lightweight steel that can be more readily transported. WRMA has provided design and permitting services for numerous stormwater control structure types and configurations including FDOT, ACOE nationwide permits, SFWMD / FDEP Environmental Resources Permits. WRMA can offer Collier County the following capabilities: • Civil and Structural Engineering - Development of site layouts, outline and detailed design for general civil engineering and control structures/culverts/pump stations; • Refurbishment and building design modifications for existing control structures; • Hydraulic/Structural Surveys - Our team of structural and civil engineers carry out conduit condition surveys, investigations and monitoring of CS's, assessing issues relating to current condition, the extent of structural remediation works and associated budget costs; • Civil and Infrastructure Engineering - This encompasses all aspects of infrastructure design, including drainage, service requirements, access road and junction improvements, pavement and retaining walls. Control Structure Retrofit and Sediment Control Facilities WRMA can inspect, asses, site, design, and permit control structures of various types and configurations including control structures for conventional pipe -to -pond systems as well as larger canal type structures for water management. Additionally, WRMA can design sediment control facilities for temporary and permanent control and maintenance of sediments. In addition, WRMA excels in the structural retrofitting and rehabilitation of older control structures. Recently, WRMA completed a retrofit project for three control structures on the L-8 canal for the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission. The three control structures were experiencing degradation and erosion on the bank of the levee. As part of the work the WRMA team provided survey and engineering design for damaged sandbag cement endwalls and control structure upgrades, including installation of new stems, Rotork bevel gears and piggyback adaptors for operation of the weir plates. WRMA prepared plans and specifications for the repair and maintenance of these control ctri irti irac COLLIER COUNTY I RPS NO. 21-7847 1 GOODLETTE-FRANK DITCH IMPROVEMENTS DESIGN SERVICES 1WRMA WATER RESOURCES I ENGINEERING Shown here is a Sediment Control Facility Designed by WRMA to Capture Sediments Prior to Discharge into an Adjacent Canal through a Riser Control Structure Shown Here �I THI111II�_ �, T1 s'�ati.�w••�'�ci+reY.C►7"=.+� 's-.^ _ - � - L� ' • /ram a� - fv �F ti .ti r..' Canal & Levee Stabilization Canal and levee systems play a critical role in the function of stormwater conveyance throughout the State and Collier County. WRMA can provide the County with professional engineering and inspection services to inspect, assess and design stabilization solutions for canals and levees throughout the County. The typical project will require that conveyance improvements be made to an existing canal that will provide the main source of water to an impoundment or has the capacity to convey design flows from a site. Typically, these canals would have eroded banks with potential for slope instability failure. WRMA can assist the County with conveyance improvements. Larger canals in the County may be major conveyance facilities, and so their proposed repair will require a Pre -Design Reconnaissance and Feasibility Study including field data (topographic and geotechnical) and environmental assessments. WRMA can assist Collier County with provision of Field Surveys to collect the data that will be necessary in the preparation of the construction plans for the project and will include Bathymetric soundings for dredging of the canal and bank full topographic data for bank stabilization design. Field observations, Geotechnical Field Explorations and laboratory testing results of soils occurring along the canal in the project area will have to be completed by the Geotechnical Engineer to identify the probable causes of the existing canal bank slope failure (erosion, slippage and sloughing). Environmental Assessment of the project areas will include a detailed environmental and vegetative survey of both sides of the canal. Submerged aquatic vegetation (SAV) is also typically found in varying densities along the canal, and WRMA can conduct a detailed wildlife survey that will be used to identify the occurrence of mammals, reptiles, wading birds, and raptors. WRMA will provide the County with a Screening Level Environmental and Ecological Risk (SLER) Assessment needed prior to recommending any dredging along the canal bottom. Hydrologic and hydraulic (H&H) Modeling and Stabilization Design for Canals/Levees Determination of the upper and lower limits of bank armoring design is a function of peak high canal stages and wave height associated with boat traffic and from storm event wind -generated waves. The proposed canal improvements must be designed in compliance with the local water management District's project charter guidelines, which instructs the Designer to address canal bank armoring be placed 2 feet above the "high water elevation" and 2 feet below the "low COLLIER COUNTY I RPS NO. 21-7847 1 GOODLETTE-FRANK DITCH IMPROVEMENTS DESIGN SERVICES 1WRMA WATER RESOURCES I ENGINEERING water elevation." The calculation of wave height (wind set- up for wave generation and wave set-up) will be performed per SGFWMD/USCACE DCM-2. For slope stability analysis, - WRMA will provide information on design cross sections, different design water levels and different slope protection 44f r= technologies. The stability analysis will be performed for i unprotected and armored slopes (for all applicable water level boundary conditions and type of proposed armoring which may include Articulated Concrete Block Mat (ACBM), gabions, rip rap, etc. The stability analysis to be performed will indicate if all/some of the proposed armoring alternatives will meet the required factor of safety at the specified slope for each section. Recently, WRMA Shown here is a Canal Stabilization Project Designed by WRMA to completed an emergency canal stabilization project for the Restore the Canal Banks and Remove Large Deposits of Sediments Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission on the M-O canal in coordination with the Indian Trail Improvement District (ITID). WRMA was tasked to design a canal stabilization solution to address erosion of un-stable segments of the M-O Canal banks and the erosion at two CMP discharge outfall pipes on the levee bordering the J.W. Corbett Wildlife Management Area. WRMA responded by immediately mobilizing to the site and provided survey and engineering design services. Hydrologic and Hydraulic Model Selection and Development for Stormwater and Floodplain Modeling WRMA's engineering staff is proficient in H&H and spatial modeling using a wide range of software tools. In addition to the standard vector -based spatial analysis techniques provided by ESRI's ArcGIS software, WRMA has extensive experience in hydrologic and hydraulic modeling throughout Florida. Our staff has assisted clients in development of existing conditions computer models for watersheds using U.S. Army Corps, HEC-RAS, UNET, EPA SWMM, ICPR4, SWMM, XP-SWMM, MIKE SHE, RSM, HSPF, and CHAN. WRMA staff has thorough knowledge of the rainfall/runoff processes and dynamic routing computations applicable to South Florida conditions. Elevation & Hydraulic Modeling for FEMA Floodplains The interconnected nature of drainage canals, wetlands, complex hydraulics, and discharge boundary conditions requirements of the coastal ecosystem watershed area mandates the application of a robust and well -established basin - wide H&H model with very specific characteristics. Hydrologically, the model must be able to account for all hydrologic cycle components typical of water budget modeling applied to wetlands hydroperiod simulations. The model must also be able to perform flood -routing of flood stages and/or wetland inundations depths through a complex network of interconnected sloughs, canals, ponds, reservoirs, and gated control structures. The model must also be able to account for external hydraulic input from pumps and wells. Lastly, the model must integrate the surface flow and/or inundation depth to the seasonal movement of the groundwater table through the unsaturated zone. (i.e., it must be an integrated surface/groundwater model). WRMA often recommends the use of the ICPR4-2D model as a basis for development of the hydraulic model. ICPR4-2D is an integrated surface/groundwater model that describes the unsaturated zone. This zone is the most critical zone for understanding expansion and contraction of wetlands. ICPR4-2D allows detailed hydrodynamic simulation of wetlands, reservoirs, culvert, structures, gates, pumps, in an interconnected network of canals, ponds, reservoirs and wetlands. WRMAwill utilize the ICPR4-2D model for stormwater runoff response and wetland water budget/hydroperiod simulation, to address flooding problems, and to develop a long-term, continuous basin -scale water budget /hydraulic model for studying water management during low, average, and high flow, and extreme event conditions. COLLIER COUNTY I RPS NO. 21-7847 1 GOODLETTE-FRANK DITCH IMPROVEMENTS DESIGN SERVICES 1WRMA WATER RESOURCES I ENGINEERING WRMA is also well versed in XPSWMM H&H modeling. WRMA has applied the XPSWMM model for the 280 square mile Miami River Watershed Regional Flood Control Program, the South East Sector Watershed planning area in Tallahassee, Florida and the C-4 and C-9 Basin Stormwater Master Plans in Broward and Miami, Florida. Model Calibration and Verification WRMA will prepare and collect model calibration Data: \ Rainfall events (volume/duration/frequency) simulation from other studies as available; \ Hydroperiod (water budget) simulation data from previous studies: Time series historical precipitation and pan evaporation volumes (approximately 25 years of rainfall data will be used for the calibration and verification); Shallow water table elevation data from existing piezometer wells; High water elevation marks from GPS field surveying of canals, structures, ponds, lakes, wetland systems, and lichen lines. H&H modeling for culvert and/or bridge replacement usually requires the use of a step backwater model such as HEC-RAS to rate the influence that inlet or outlet hydraulic conditions have on these structures. Furthermore, many culverts and bridges are located in FEMA Special Flood Hazard Areas mapped in Digital Flood Insurance Rate Maps (DFIRMS) with a base flood elevation (BSE) indicated. In these cases, FEMA requires that the HEC-RAS model be used to determine if the replacement (in king or other) will change the DFIRM mapped BSE. Stormwater Management and Water Resources Modeling Capabilities WRMA Engineers are experienced in the development and application of numerical models for solving environmental and engineering problems such as answering specific management questions and designing water management facilities, hydraulic structures, and conveyance systems. WRMA can provide H&H modeling services utilizing: ✓ ICPR4 Interconnected Pond Routing Model ✓ BCM Blaney-Criddle Groundwater Use Allocation Model ✓ HEC-HMS I USACE Hydrologic Modeling System ✓ HEC-RAS I USACE One -Dimensional & Two -Dimensional River Analysis System Model ✓ XPSWMM I Hydrologic, Hydraulic, And Water Quality Model ✓ INFOWORKS ICM I Hydrologic and Hydraulic Sewer Analysis Model ✓ MODFLOW-3D I Groundwater Model ✓ GMS/SEEP2D I Seepage Modeling Suite WRMA has the capability to generate all engineering drawings in AutoCAD Civil 3D with in-house personnel. All core engineering team members also regularly utilize Autodesk software as well as numerous hydrologic and hydraulic modeling packages. Watershed Restoration and H&H Wetland Hydroperiod Modeling The purpose of a typical ecosystem restoration project is to reestablish sheet flow and rainfall driven hydroperiods to improve the function of terrestrial and aquatic habitats. WRMA's methodology for watershed restoration projects includes performing an environmental and historical assessment of the wetland ecosystem for comparison with current wetland formation occurrence. The wetland coverage change detection/comparison analysis will provide the extent of impact of hydrologic gradient shift in the wetland ecosystem. WRMA can perform a field environmental assessment of impacted wetlands identified per the wetland mapping database change detection review. The field assessment objective is to determine the degree of impact that wetlands in the project have undergone as a result of man-made activities in the watershed. The impacted wetland hydroperiods and depths of inundation will be assessed per the USFWS South Florida Multi Species Recovery Plan. This plan data will also be applied for hydroperiod modeling activities. COLLIER COUNTY I RPS NO. 21-7847 1 GOODLETTE-FRANK DITCH IMPROVEMENTS DESIGN SERVICES 1WRMA WATER RESOURCES I ENGINEERING WRMA will next determine the maximum allowable water depths and appropriate draw down rates of the predevelopment wetland ecosystem in order to mimic historic habitat conditions. LiDAR or best available topography will be procured to develop a detailed and accurate Digital Elevation Model (DEM) of the project area to identify hydroperiod depths at the basin level. The DEM will be applied in a 2-Dimensional mathematical model to ascertain the 2D characteristics of the wetland hydroperiods and slough -like flow. WRMA Utilizes Piezometer Wells to Determine Wetland Hydroperiods Levels and Groundwater Table Interaction WRMA will identify existing piezometer wells and/or propose the installation of new staff gages and piezometer wells. These will be used to determine the current wetland hydroperiod levels and the surface/groundwater water table interaction. The piezometer wells will be used to monitor the wetland formations (at very specific location/targets for restoration), and the data will be applied by the H&H model. The ICPR4-2D model (or similar) will be used for hydrologic and hydraulic and hydroperiod model simulations. The ICPR4 model integrates the surface and groundwater flow as function of 1D or 2D domains. The model has a robust and very well -established hydraulic set of tools for simulation of flow through the complex existing (and proposed) hydraulic infrastructure of canals, culverts, gated control structures, wetland, ponds, reservoirs, and pumps. Historical wet, dry, and normal rainfall time series data will be obtained to simulate the behavior of the wetland ecosystem in extreme conditions. The current year data will be applied to establish the current hydrologic regime and to provide a point of comparison for hydroperiod (water budget) modeling (i.e., Restore inundation period and depths). The model will be calibrated to selected independent storm events and continuous data and verified per a recent event such as Tropical Storm Isaac or Hurricane Irma. The calibrated and verified model will be applied to simulate the existing hydraulic infrastructure and for development proposed water management strategies to restore historical wetland hydroperiods consistent with local and regional restoration goals. The WRMA Team will identify all major wetland communities present within the watershed area hydrologic gradient and estimate the range of hydrologic factors (hydroperiods and water depths) needed to maintain and/or enhance their current ecological function. Identifying natural/historic flow -ways and seasonal direction of flow within will require a historical land use/land cover comparison analysis of predevelopment vs. existing conditions as a function of very detail topography. Additionally, South Florida wetland ecosystem flow patterns are characterized by slowly meandering regional sloughs with varied degree of seasonal inundation along a flat or semi- flat topography. This type of distributed seasonal flow can best be simulated using a mathematical model with two—dimensional cell/grid methodology. MS-4 Stormwater Master Planning I Design & Permitting Services A GREEN Approach to Urban Stormwater Management Design WRMA assists municipalities by providing Stormwater Management D&M and design solutions for existing and new stormwater infrastructure. WRMA's capabilities and services in stormwater management range from D&M related services which could include inspection and cleaning, to full design engineering, involving the design and replacement of existing culverts and bridges, conventional pipe -to -pond collection systems and stormwater pump station design and optimization. Beyond the conventional pipe -to -pond collection systems, WRMA can integrate green infrastructure and LID facilities into existing or proposed stormwater master plans in order to improve water quality treatment of urban stormwater runoff, reduce runoff volumes to existing conveyances, beatify existing street corridors, re -develop or re -brand aged neighborhood communities, and improve overall collection system performance. LID facilities can also be a cost-effective way to enhance a system's climate resiliency. COLLIER COUNTY I RPS NO. 21-7847 1 GOODLETTE-FRANK DITCH IMPROVEMENTS DESIGN SERVICES 1WRMA WATER RESOURCES I ENGINEERING Stormwater master planning, design, and analysis services for urban, suburban as well as for larger scale watershed studies and assessments, requires advanced expertise in hydrologic & hydraulic stormwater management system modeling, groundwater, wetland hydroperiod modeling and water quality modeling. WRMA has experience and expertise in MS-4 stormwater collection system design and regional watershed modeling of interconnected systems of lakes, ponds, sloughs, and wetlands using point and non - point source water quality models such as ICPR4 2-D and XP-SWMM. WRMA can apply these watershed -based models in an integrated ArcHydro GIS environment utilizing LiDAR/RADAR data and multi -spectral imagery for automated sub -basin delineation. k WRMA Can Integrate Existing Older Residential Stormwater Systems into Hydraulic Models through Digitization of As-Builts Planning, Modeling and Re -Design of Older Under -Sized Urban Municipal Stormwater Conveyance Systems WRMA is experienced in the identification and re -design of existing stormwater systems lacking conveyance or discharge capacity, as well as locating undersized culverts in need of replacement. Previously, WRMA has provided stormwater master planning services for the Paradise Park Subdivision in St Lucie County, the Deer Run Subdivision and Viera DRI Surface Water Management Plans in Brevard County, Florida. WRMA is currently in the process of upgrading the Danforth Subdivision Stormwater masterplan in Palm City, Florida including providing H&H modeling, preparation of design plans and specifications and H&H modeling. WRMA is experienced in providing municipalities with various levels of conveyance system drainage design for roadway systems, residential areas and municipal facilities including, industrial zoned areas, and landfill and hazardous/solid waste facilities. WRMA previously provided stormwater management and drainage design services for the Waste Management Corporation for various solid waste facilities, landfills, and solid waste transfer stations throughout the State of Florida. Low Impact Development (LID) Facilities/Green Infrastructure for Collier County's SWMP WRMA Can Provide Sustainable and Resilient Stormwater Masterplan (SWMP) Updates. Improving water quality has become an environmental objective throughout the state and consequently, the current regulatory environment has been changing to ensure that future development incorporates infrastructure elements which treat urban stormwater runoff at the source. Urban stormwater carries trash, bacteria, heavy metals, and other pollutants from the urban landscape, degrading the quality of the receiving waters. Higher runoff flows can also cause erosion and flooding in urban streams, damaging habitat, property, and infrastructure. WRMA's approach to stormwater management utilizes a combination of proven conventional methods with best management practices (BMPs) and Green Infrastructure elements to ensure that a WRMA design is compliant with MS-4 permit requirements for treatment of urban stormwater runoff while also enhancing functional reliability and reducing stormwater runoff volume into the existing MS-4 system. Green Infrastructure practices utilized by WRMA use vegetation, soils, and natural processes to manage water and create healthier urban environments. At the scale of a county, green infrastructure refers to the patchwork of natural areas that provide habitat, flood storage and protection, cleaner air, and cleaner water. At the scale of a neighborhood or project site, green infrastructure refers to stormwater management systems that mimic nature by soaking up and storing water and stormwater runoff. Most green infrastructure elements can be applied at both scales and can be strategically sited to provide the maximum benefits for a given available project site or watershed area. COLLIER COUNTY I RPS NO. 21-7847 1 GOODLETTE-FRANK DITCH IMPROVEMENTS DESIGN SERVICES 1WRMA WATER RESOURCES I ENGINEERING Improving MS-4 Water Quality Treatment and Enhancement of System Resiliency WRMA's engineering team is experienced in designing stormwater management systems for municipalities which strategically incorporate LID facilities that provide greater quantity of treated stormwater runoff volume, reductions in stormwater runoff volumes to existing MS-4 systems, aesthetic enhancement of aged or economically depressed corridors, and lastly grant funding. Aside from the environmental benefits, recently, WRMA has found that incorporating green infrastructure and LID facilities into projects eligible for grant funding, can provide a level of differentiation as well as the potential for high scoring and project ranking. Grant funding sources that recognize the benefit of green infrastructure include the SFWMD, FDEP and FEMA.

Brevard County Crane Creek/Hickory Ditch Stormwater Master Plan, Brevard Town, FL. The Crane Creek/Hickory Stormwater Master Plan was one of the major studies conducted under this program. The 13,900-acre Crane Creek Basin experiences severe flooding during moderate to heavy rainfall events. The flooding lasts for several days in some areas, making access to homes and businesses impossible. A stormwater master plan of the basin was prepared to determine cost-effective solutions to the flooding problem and to improve the quality of stormwater runoff. Major task items included a detailed structure inventory and survey, development of computer models forflood and water quality analysis, alternative analysis, and a detailed cost estimate. The hydrologic/hydraulic model was developed with a level of detail necessary to assess the impact of small system modifications. Simulations included various design storm, as well as conditions representing hurricane events. A water quality model was developed based on the St. Johns River Water Management District (SJRWMD) non -point source pollution load screening model. The study evaluated a series of structural and non-structural alternatives to meet the established goals. In addition, a water quality model was developed for the basin to evaluate pollutant loading to the Indian River Lagoon in response to a pollutant load reduction goal (PLRG) being developed by the St. Johns River Water Management District. The results of the study combined the most feasible and cost-effective options COLLIER COUNTY I RPS NO. 21-7847 1 GOODLETTE-FRANK DITCH IMPROVEMENTS DESIGN SERVICES 4t1WRMA WATER RESOURCES I ENGINEERING from the several alternatives into a comprehensive plan that could be implemented by the Town. To assist the Town in implementation, a schedule was developed that broke the plan into financially manageable phases for implementation over time, addressing the most severe problem areas first. (Moris Cabezas, PhD, PE, Raul Mercado, PED, CFM) Viera East DRI Stormwater Master Plan, Melbourne, Florida. A stormwater master plan of the 2,800-acre Development of Regional Impact (DRI) was prepared to meet permitting requirements of the St. Johns River Water Management District (SJRWMD), Florida Department of Environmental protection (FDEP), and Brevard Town.

Performed wetland delineation and mapping and water budget modeling for optimum hydroperiod restoration. Prepared water management facilities plan design and specification for permitting and construction, implementation. (Raul Mercado, PE, CFM) Deer Run Subdivision Storm Water Management System Improvements, Melbourne, FL. The Deer Run subdivision, had undergone periodic flooding due to high stages in the Sotile Canal and the inadequate functioning of the existing storm water management system. The Deer Run subdivision was built in the early 1980's prior to present storm water regulations. A detailed investigation of the flooding problems, coordinating with the St. Johns River Water Management District (SJRWMD), was undertaken in formulating conceptual solutions. Applying the ICPR model Hydrologic and hydraulic analyses of the Deer Run existing and proposed storm water management systems were performed, and presented in a Technical Report included a listing of the channel and hydraulic structure data used for H&H modeling, a discussion of existing conditions, and detailed analyses of proposed gravity and pumped discharge alternatives. The design also included a control structure discharging into the Mary A Flow way from the Sotile Canal. In the proposed alternatives, the project area included a third control structure discharging by gravity to Babcock Road. Babcock Road also outfalls into the Sotile Canal. Pumps (22 cfs bleeder pump, a 50 cfs pump) were also considered for discharge of the 25year/24hour storm event peak into the Mary A Flow way instead of the existing 60" RCP outfalls.A cost estimate of improvements was prepared for the gravity and pumped —based alternatives, including the cost of land, design, and implementation. (Raul Mercado, PE, CFM, Moris Cabezas, PhD, PE) Sarno Road Class 111 Landfill, Surface Water Management Master Plan Expansion Update Improvements, Melbourne, FL. Significant modifications to the Sarno Road Class III Landfill Stormwater Master Plan (SRL) were proposed with the 2001 five-year operational permit re -certification of the landfill. In addition, Brevard Town was in the process of investigating the development of a Solid Waste Master Plan for the SRL. The Master Plan was needed due to the potential acquisition of additional parcels that could be utilized for future solid waste management and ancillary activities as part of the SRL. The existing landfill property encompasses approximately 195 acres, including an undeveloped tract in the southeast section of the property. Potential acquisitions could double this size. Mr. Mercado obtained an advanced copy of the Crane Creek H&H model and analyzed the impact of additional discharges from the Landfill drainage area in the watershed. Preliminary findings of the Crane Creek study indicated that significant flooding occurred downstream of the landfill site. To alleviate the downstream flooding condition, and in advance of the need to accommodate the Master Plan and potential additional runoff from future landfill parcel additions, the existing Stormwater management system was revised to account for direct discharges to the regional Brevard Town L-16 Canal. The most significant revisions include the relocation of the controlling structure from Pond B within the Landfill site to the intersection of the L-16 and L-11 Canals. The main purpose of this control structure relocation is to maximize the landfill's wet detention facility volume in conjunction with the storage gained in the L-16 canal impoundment. The effect of this larger impoundment of runoff is to alleviate or reduce regional flood discharges at the East Street culvert crossing of the L-16 Canal located just southwest of the landfill site. (Raul Mercado, PE, CFM, Moris Cabezas, PhD, PE) Martin County Kitching Creek Water Quality Improvements, Martin County, Florida. Mr. Mercado managed and participated in a study to develop a plan to improve water quality of flows entering into Jonathan Dickinson State Park (JDSO) including re - hydration of disturbed wetlands impacted by agricultural practices, establishment and implementation of a water quality sampling plan, and provision for adequate flood protection for local residential and commercial properties. Projects included data gathering, H&H, groundwater, water quality models development and calibration, preparation of a watershed management plan, and detailed modeling and design of recommended alternative plans, permitting, survey, specifications, cost estimate, hydraulic report, design/construction plans, and project management. COLLIER COUNTY I RPS NO. 21-7847 1 GOODLETTE-FRANK DITCH IMPROVEMENTS DESIGN SERVICES OWRMA WATER RESOURCES I ENGINEERING St. Lucie County The Paradise Park Subdivision Stormwater Masterplan. The Paradise Park subdivision is located in the Town of Malabar, FL, and comprises a drainage area of approximately 168.1 acres. The basin is drained primarily by the C-25 and Fort Pierce Farms (FPF) Canals along the south and north boundaries, respectively, of the subdivision. Mr. Mercado assessed the existing drainage patterns or flooding conditions in the subdivision and designed a storm water management system that can accommodate a 10-year level of service. The storm water management elements were systematically arranged for the development of a Storm Water Master Plan including various phases of implementation. Plans and specifications, preliminary cost estimates of construction, and a South Florida Water Management District (SFWMD) permit application were prepared for the Master Plan. Elements of the Master Plan included: Design of drainage swales along the subdivision's streets for conveyance of runoff to storm water detention and treatment facilities, design of storm water runoff treatment facilities including dry detention ponds and associated hydraulic control structures, conveyance improvements to a portion of the existing Juanita Street ditch system, and design of control structures for discharge of treated runoff to the C-25 and FPF Canals. The selected and proposed dry detention facilities were designed to have a "passive" recreational use. These facilities are significant in size and have an alternate use as locations for field sports such as soccer, football, and baseball. The total construction cost for all phases of the project was estimated at $ 1,673,565.00. City of Port St. Lucie E-3 Canal Bank Stabilization. Development of an ICPR H&H model and plans and specifications for the E-3 Canal bank stabilization project. Port St. Lucie Section Planning Area 3 Stormwater Improvement Plan, St. Lucie, Florida. A water resources investigation of this planning area was conducted in detail to ascertain the adequacy of the existing drainage network of ditches, canals, and retention/detention ponds, and to develop a stormwater improvement plan to satisfy future development conditions of this fast-growing south Florida community. The ICPR computer model was applied to perform hydrologic, hydraulic, and hydrodynamic simulation of the existing and proposed drainage conveyance system.

The project entail H&H modeling, canal bank tree assessment, surveying of drainage canal easements, and canal bank armoring design. An initial slope stability analysis was performed to assess the safe design of natural slopes and protected slopes. The slope stability analysis is utilized to determine the resistance of an inclined surface to failure by sliding or collapsing. The previously derived soil parameters will be applied based on established empirical correlation and professional experience. Slope stability analysis will be performed via computer programs such as SLOPE/W. The model will then compute a factor of safety (FS) against slope instability. The analysis will be performed for unprotected (natural grassed conditions), and unprotected (armored) alternatives such as High -Performance Turf Mats (HPTRM), Rock Rip Rap, ACBM's, Gabions mattresses, etc. Lack of drainage easement for 0&M required that a canal enclosure design be selected for implementation at a cost of $2.8 million for installation of 72" DuraMaxx HDPE conduits. vil Engineering Desig Michael Mercado, PE specializes in civil engineering for civil and site design, including drainage and conveyance systems.

DBE Certified Company www.cella.cc PAST PERFORMANCE PROJECT PROFILE IVRMA (FEMA/HMGP CASE SPECIFIC) LAKE SHORE DRIVE SEA LEVEL RISE -BASED PUMP STATION OUTFALL DESIGN AND FEMA FLOOD HAZARD MITIGATION GRANT PROGRAM (HMGP) FUNDING APPLICATION ASSISTANCE Town of Lake Park, Public Works Department Palm Beach County, FL Richard Scherle, (Former) Public Works Director scherlempa@gmail.com (561) 908-3874 Completed: 2019 Fee (Design): $25,000 Fee (Construction): $3.5 mil LEGEM1O' s DESCRIPTION The Lake Shore Drive Drainage Improvements project is located along the eastern boundary of the Town of Lake Park. The project was formulated to address recurring flooding of low-lying areas along the right-of-way of Lake Shore Drive. Historical flooding conditions were exacerbated by the effects of climate change including Sea Level Rise (SLR). The improvements consisted of an engineered project that established and improved the Level of Service of the roadway by improving drainage and addressing sea level rise as a result of storm surges, king tides and climate change. The project included new drainage infrastructure, a pump station, a dry detention area for water quality, and in -line check valves to prevent backflow from the Intracoastal Waterway/Lake Worth Lagoon (LWL). The major items of the project included new roadway drainage, reconstruction of the roadway with curb and gutter, and sidewalks. The design of the project included four locations where storm water discharges to the LWL via gravity pipes. Each pipe included a storm water pollution control structure and an in -line check valve. A 22,500 gpm pump station was constructed to handle higher seal level conditions and pump water to a new dry detention area located at an adjacent park. The new pump station attenuates and treats the stormwater before discharging to the LWL. The total project budget was $5.7 million, and the town could only contribute $2.2 million. The Town applied to the Palm Beach County LMS for a $3.5 million FEMA/HMGP grant which was approved in FY2019 contingent in the Town meeting and achieving the required Benefit/Cost ratio for post construction (Phase 2). The original Town consultant prepared the initial B/C using the condo building properties affected along Lake Shore Drive and east of US Highway 1. The B/C ratio of 0.85 did not meet the FEMA threshold and WRMA was tasked with enhancing the B/C ratio to be able to receive Phase 2 construction funds. r�s COLLIER COUNTY I RPS NO. 21-78471 GOODLETTE-FRANK DITCH IMPROVEMENTS DESIGN SERVICES OWRMA WATER RESOURCES I ENGINEERING METHODOLOGY & APPROACH An existing 60" RCP trunk main line discharged a significant amount of the watershed to the LWL and the gradual imposition of Sea Level Rise (SLR) -influenced high tides resulted in severe degradation in the capacity of the outfall system and significant urban flooding. Further, an existing 60" outfall connected to the proposed Lake Shore Drive stormwater management system through a 48" RCP, with a valve significantly influencing the flooding upstream. WRMA divided the project area into four basin areas of analysis to perform hydrologic and hydraulic (H&H) computations using the ICPR4 model. This identified additional affected properties west of US Highway 1. WRMA applied a progressive Sea Level Rise approach to H&H modeling to achieve satisfactory B/C. A major assumption in the project formulation was the inclusion of projected Climate Change -based Sea Level Rise (SLR) impacts in the calculation of flood stages for design storms of recurring frequency. The United States Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) has predicted that the change in SLR between 2019-2060 will be approximately 26 inches. This corresponded to a 2060 average high tide of 2.7 feet NAVD. The invert of the existing 60" outfall at the LWL was at -3.2 feet NAVD. With the 2060 existing tailwater condition of 2.7 feet NAVD (for storms 3 to 25-year) and 4.1 feet NAVD (for 50 and 100-year), the system was under significant back pressure creating potential flooding of residential and commercial properties west of Lake Shore Drive, along US 1, and as far west as 2nd Street. The ICPR4-2D H&H model was used to perform hydrodynamic modeling of the rainfall/runoff process occurring throughout the Lake Shore Drive basin area. Hydrologic simulations were performed for the 3-yr/24-hr, 10-yr, 24-hr, 25- yr, 3-day, 50-yr, 3-day, and 100-yr, 3-day storm events. To assess the impact of the potential flooding to be caused because of the SLR -based high tides, 4 multi -family buildings located within Eastern Basins, and 66 residential properties in basins 1-US HWY1 West and West Basin 1 were selected for assessment. AS FEMA required flood mitigation for B/C analysis purposes using First Floor Elevations (FFE's) of building structures, FFE's were acquired for the building project area in Eastern basins 1-4. The Town of Lake Park Building Department records were also searched to obtain permit based FFE elevations along the western basins. Using this approach, 24 additional structures or residential properties were selected for detailed flooding extent analysis. The exhibits below depict the before and pre vs. post mitigation project extent of flooding for the west basins. ll'1'U' v'UYLLV:F: U1HfG L11 I LFI.00n F.i TF\T COLLIER COUNTY I RPS NO. 21-7847 1 GOODLETTE-FRANK DITCH IMPROVEMENTS DESIGN SERVICES It1WRMA WATER RESOURCES I ENGINEERING As expected, the pump operation substantially offset the impact of the 2060 SLR -based high tide condition for both the eastern and western basins. Many of the 24 impacted residential properties along the west basin are relieved from flooding for the 3-25yr storm events and flooding duration is significantly deceased for the 50 and 100-yr storm events.

Corbett Wildlife Management Palm Beach County, FL Dave Sweetay, Biologist dave.sweetay@myfwc.com (561) 624-6989 Completed: May 2019 Fee (Design): $25,000 Fee (Construction): $389,000 No Change Orders 7 } _M� 'Ak DESCRIPTION The J.W. Corbett Wildlife Management Area, owned and maintained by the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission, retained WRMA to perform an urgent canal stabilization project on the M-O canal in coordination with the Indian Trail Improvement District (ITID). TASK WRMA was tasked to design a canal stabilization solution to address erosion of un-stable segments of the M-O Canal banks and the erosion at two CMP discharge outfall pipes on the levee bordering the J.W. Corbett Wildlife Management Area. As part of the work the WRMA team provided survey and engineering design of rip -rap canal stabilization, including removal of large sediment deposits on the bed of the M-O canal and re -grading and stabilization of a 500-foot reach of both the north and south banks of the M-O canal. WRMA prepared an expedited design as well as construction plans and specifications for the stabilization work which was completed in May of 2019. METHODOLOGY & APPROACH WRMA reviewed plans and specifications for the twin 48" CMP nearby existing outfalls of the S-4 control structure. WRMA commissioned a topographic survey of the M-O canal to establish the limits of the sediment deposition. WRMA utilized the topographic data to prepare a canal stabilization design of bank erosion and provide armor for the two 48" CMP discharge pipe outfalls on the canal. An expedited canal bank slope stabilization design was prepared per the recommended SFWMD/USACE canal bank stabilization and armoring technical criteria, using a rip -rap stabilization method in combination with hydro -seeding to provide a stabilization solution that could be implemented prior to the rainy season. The stabilization work was to be performed during the dry period in early April. The canal bank restoration program consisted of access road stabilization for heavy equipment, dredging and removal of existing canal bottom sediments, vegetation, backfilling and compaction of the canal banks, installation of geotechnical fabric, rip -rap stone on the canal banks (for the entire length of the project), as well as the completion of canal collateral work. COLLIER COUNTY I RPS NO. 21-7847 1 GOODLETTE-FRANK DITCH IMPROVEMENTS DESIGN SERVICES 1WRMA WATER RESOURCES I ENGINEERING BEFORE (Sediment Deposition on Canal Bed and Erosion Above Dual Outfall Pipes) AFTER (Sediment Removal and Canal Bank Rip -Rap Stabilization ASSURANCE & QUALITY CONTROL All work was performed in accordance with the Environmental Resource Permit (originally issued as a South Florida Water Management District Surface Water Management Permit No. 50-00251-S). The design and construction plans were provided to the Indian Trail Improvement District for comment. Construction plans and activities were reviewed by ITID's and FWC staff. This project entailed detailed topographic surveying of the site, canal bank stabilization, armoring of the existing twin outfall pipes, stabilization of eroded areas, and stabilization of the levee berm road. WRMA provided construction inspection services for the M-O Canal bank stabilization work. WRMA coordinated with the selected contractor, SFWMD, ITID, and Fish & Wildlife staff in the field through the provision of construction, inspection, and as built certification services. WRMA's responsibilities included managing weekly construction progress meetings, managing document control, and maintaining all construction documents. RESULTS WRMA expedited the canal rip -rap stabilization design for 500 feet of canal as well as for the armoring of the JW Corbett levee at the two twin CMP S-4 control structure outfall pipes on the M-O canal. WRMA provided surveys, construction plans and permitting for the construction of the stabilization work on short notice. COLLIER COUNTY I RPS NO. 21-7847 1 GOODLETTE-FRANK DITCH IMPROVEMENTS DESIGN SERVICES 1WRMA WATER RESOURCES I ENGINEERING PROJECT PROFILE - WRMA STORMWATER MANAGEMENT SYSTEM LAKE BANK EROSION STABILIZATION PROJECT Danforth Creek Subdivision POA Palm City, FL Art Thompson, President actdiddee@aol.com (646) 372- 7378 Expected Completion: 04/12/2021 Fee (Design): $55,000 Fee (Construction): $620,000 DESCRIPTION The Danforth Creek subdivision lakes had experienced steady shoreline bank erosion caused by 1) Continuous change in water elevation due to the change of seasons (groundwater table) and from lake withdrawals for irrigation needs, 2) Strong winds and waves along large and long lake shorelines, 3) Stormwater runoff from areas without proper drainage, and 4) Fish, that can burrow into the bank. TASK WRMA was contracted to assess the sources of the lake erosion, design a long-term lake bank erosion stabilization solution, prepare plans and specifications, process bid documents, select a contractor, and provide construction implementation inspection services. METHODOLOGY & APPROACH In Phase 1, WRMA established the severity of problem and performed a topographic site visual survey to measure and document existing lake bank slope, lake easement right -of way encroachments, tree trunk and canopy extent along shoreline, utilities, culverts, and site accessibility for alternative design analysis. The visual inspection identified locations of Lake Bank erosion and assigned a level of severity, a type of erosion and a potential erosion cause. Each location was photographed for documenting and further review. A Geotechnical Survey (soil borings) was also performed to establish native soil stability factors of safety. Geotechnical services included 26-foot deep Standard Penetration Test Soil Borings and Failure Evaluation (probable cause of shear failure and surface sloughing in the very loose sub -soils along lake banks). The results of the Geotechnical survey were used to perform a lake bank soils stability analysis to assess the safe design of the natural slope at the lake shoreline. The slope stability analysis is utilized to determine the resistance of an inclined surface to failure by sliding or collapsing. Slope stability analysis was performed via computer programs and input variables that included soil and rock properties, slope geometry, water levels, and critical failure surface generation limits. The consultant then computed a factor of safety (FS) against slope instability. The slope stability analysis was performed for static and rapid drawdown water levels. Three (3) conditions were analyzed for lake bank slope stability: Normal High -Water Level (NHWL), Normal Low Water Level (NLWL), and Rapid (seasonal) Drawdown (RPD). WRMA provided typical lake design cross sections (lake bank elevations) including water levels (normal high-water level, normal low water level, and rapid drawdown water level. COLLIER COUNTY I RPS NO. 21-7847 1 GOODLETTE-FRANK DITCH IMPROVEMENTS DESIGN SERVICES 1WRMA WATER RESOURCES I ENGINEERING AFTER INITIAL BASE GEOTUBE INSTALLATION The second phase provided for the production of construction plans and specifications which were produced for 14,000 feet (2.65 miles) of lake bank restoration project using Geotubes to restore the bank slope to an SFWMD compliant grade. This project entailed detailed topographic surveying of the site, and detailed engineering assessment of the lake bank material and stability properties, via a stability analysis provided by the geotechnical subconsultant, Terracon. All data was reviewed for conformance to standards and plans were reviewed to ensure the plans reflected the proposed design and conformed to WRMA CADD standards. WRMA's responsibilities included managing weekly construction progress meetings; managing document control; preparing daily construction inspection records; documenting deliveries; taking site photographs; and managing all submittals; RFIs; Change Order requests; and pay applications. WRMA's CS staff tracked the contractor's cost - loaded schedule to ensure timely updates of cost to complete. There are many irrigation and roof runoff letdowns along the lake bank that require removal and/or modification for installation of GeoTubes. Additionally, many irrigation pumps have to be re -primed after check valves are replaced at the pipe's end. The steepness of the bank along certain higher ground elevations required the placement of a second layer of GeoTubes to achieve the design sod slope at the bank. RESULT This lake bank restoration project is currently in AFTER GEOTUBE INSTALLATION AND SODDING construction as shown in the above photo. The first phase of construction has been completed and the restored bank slopes are now protected with Geotubes and have an acceptable bank slope per SFWMD criteria. WRMA has been providing construction services for this project.

The primary outfall discharges to the South Fork St. Lucie River via the Pipers Landing slough conveyance system (CS1). A secondary outfall discharges excess runoff to Danforth Creek (CS2). Portions of the subdivision roads experienced periodic ponding and flooding with minor rainfall storm events. TASK Water Resources Management Associates, Inc. (WRMA) was retained to investigate the cause of the flooding, to determine system efficiency, perform retrofit design, and obtain all pertinent (FDEP/SFWMD, Martin County) regulatory permits for retrofit and operation of the Danforth Creek Subdivision surface water management system. METHODOLOGY & APPROACH WRMA performed existing condition hydraulic analysis of the surface water management system of interconnected lakes, culverts, inlets, and control structures to ascertain the impact that storm sewer inlets, catch basins, and culverts have on each lake. An ICPR4 hydrodynamic model was developed and is being applied to ascertain the individual behavior of each lake stage as a function of the interconnected system of culverts. The analysis concluded that the main discharge of the subdivision through the Piper's Landing slough outfall was not performing as designed. The constant high tail water condition at the Slough precluded the proper functioning of control structure CS1. The 2-foot bleeder at CS1 was submerged most of the time for a 25-year design storm event and did not return the lake system to pre- storm event conditions. COLLIER COUNTY I RPS NO. 21-7847 1 GOODLETTE-FRANK DITCH IMPROVEMENTS DESIGN SERVICES 1WRMA WATER RESOURCES I ENGINEERING DANFORTH CREEK SUBDIVISION PROPOSED CONTROL STRUCTURE AND OUTFALL ON DANFORTH CREEK WRMA performed an alternative retrofit design analysis that included a new outfall control structure to Danforth Creek. The structure modification will allow for better bleeding or return of lake levels to the near normal stage condition and will relieve the flooding experienced in some parts of the subdivision. WRMA prepared plans and specifications for over 100 feet of HDPE Storm 42" pipe, manholes and for a new 10'x8'x6' oversized concrete control structure with new weir and bleeder elevations and also performed a modification of the current South Florida Water Management District (SFWMD) permit. WRMA will prepare engineering quantity take offs and bid documents and will perform construction management of proposed improvements. ASSURANCE & QUALITY CONTROL WRMA has been providing construction services for this project. WRMA is coordinating the work with the general contractor, providing projects status updates to the owner, and troubleshooting issues as they arise. Project Management activities include preparing monthly status reports and scheduling bi-weekly meetings with the owner and the contractor. This project is expected to be completed in 2021. COLLIER COUNTY I RPS NO. 21-7847 1 GOODLETTE-FRANK DITCH IMPROVEMENTS DESIGN SERVICES 1WRMA WATER RESOURCES I ENGINEERING PROJECT PROFILE - WRMA TOWN OF LAKE PARK SOUTHERN OUTFALL PRIORITY REHABILITATION PROJECT, LAKE PARK, FLORIDA Town of Lake Park Public Works Department Palm Beach County Dwayne Bell Public Works Director dbell@lakeparkflorida.gov (561) 856-1430 Completed: Ongoing Fee (Design): $262,000 Fee (Estimated Construction): $3.0 mil DESCRIPTION The Southern Outfall is located along a historical ditch draining west to east along the southern boundary of the Town. As the Town developed, storm sewers were connected — without proper engineering planning — to the ditch (and later to the enclosed outfall) from north to south and west to east. With a 446-acre watershed area, large trunk sewers from 48 to 60 inches along the outfall reach capacity quickly and with increasing high tides, frequent backups and flooding along the entire network occur. Flooding is more intensely experienced along Lake Shore Drive and the upstream mid and upstream (western) portion of the watershed area. Currently, the US Highway 1 Right -of -Way along the Town of Lake Park drains through the 72" CAP Southern Outfall built in the 1950's. The 8.6-acre ROW lacks stormwater treatment facilities and untreated runoff discharges directly and almost instantly to the LWL between Date Palm and Cypress Drive. ICPR4-2D modeling of the 446-acre watershed indicates that the 72" CAP outfall is significantly under capacity to discharge upstream floes for even small design storm events. During a routine O&M inspection in 2019, a localized soil subsidence was observed at a grassy area near the seawall at the Town's marina and in the vicinity of the 72" CAP outfall discharging through the seawall. Further investigations indicated that the substance was aligned with the outfall pipe conduit and a visual underwater inspection or CCTV was commissioned to a third party. The CCTV Condition Assessment and a walkthrough of the 72" CAP outfall at low tide indicated that a 600-foot section of the outfall extending from just COLLIER COUNTY I RPS NO. 21-7847 1 GOODLETTE-FRANK DITCH IMPROVEMENTS DESIGN SERVICES OWRMA WATER RESOURCES I ENGINEERING west of Lake Shore Drive to the seawall, was found to have significant sub -structural and structural defects (Including the point repair below). Given the stormwater asset age and per its condition assessment, it has been established that the existing 72" CAP outfall is or has experienced sub -structural and structural defects that precludes the possibility of trenchless CIPP lining or similar techniques to restore its conveyance function. Additionally, the remaining asset life (the 72" CAP is approximately 70 years old), does not warrant a trenchless temporary CIPP fix. An open cut replacement cost will be necessary and will require the design of approximately 780 feet of 72" RCP (or other applicable type) conduit from the US Highway #1 ROW to the Lake Worth Lagoon seawall. WRMA also completed a Vulnerability, Risk and Adaptation Assessment of the coastal Town to address the future impact of Sea Level Rise (Projected at NOAA to be approximately 36-40" by 2070). WRMA assessed the 0 .8 miles seawall and performed inundation mapping for increased tides at the Lake Worth Lagoon. The assessment indicated that by 2040 the Town would begin to be under significant influence of SLR at the Marina or at the location of the 2" CAP Outfall. All these factors were indicative that a long term more sustainable solution to the 72" CAP replacement was required that included the provision of a Sea Level Rise Pump station in addition to the decentralization of the outfall upstream network. The SLR pump station would be designed as a hybrid flood control/SLR pump station to be located at the Town's Marina. A Biodetention facility will be designed for flow attenuation and water quality treatment prior to discharge to the Lake Worth Lagoon. WRMA has completed all survey, geotechnical and SUE field investigations and is on the process of preparing 30% design plans. The CIP priority project is being expeditated and 60% and 100% plans will be completed by May 2021. Construction is expected in the Fall of 2021. _ PRO PO SHq 610 ❑ETEFI TJON FAiC1�1T COLLIER COUNTY I RPS NO. 21-7847 1 GOODLETTE-FRANK DITCH IMPROVEMENTS DESIGN SERVICES IDWRMA WATER RESOURCES I ENGINEERING RELATED WRMA STAFF EXPERIENCE GENERAL ENGINEERING PROFESSIONAL SERVICES (GEPS): HILLSBORO CANAL BANK STABILIZATION AND EROSION CONTROL PROJECT (Raul Mercado, PE, CFM, project managed the implementation of the of 10-Mile Hillsboro Canal Bank Stabilization project on behalf of the South Florida Water Management District) South Florida Water Management District Palm Beach County, FL Ashie Akpoji, PE, Project Manager aakpoji@swfmd.gov (561) 686-8800 Raul Mercado, PE, CFM (2010-2012, on behalf of PBS&J/Atkins) Completed: 2012 (Design) Design: $800,000 Estimated Construction: $17 Million Bank Erosion Sloughing and undercutting • Tap of Bank @ 10 Feet NGVD DESCRIPTION The Hillsboro 10.2-mile Canal Bank Stabilization Project is located in southeastern Palm Beach County and northeastern Broward County. The Canal is believed to have been built between 1914 and 1921 and the banks had eroded over time and the bank slopes had sloughed into the canal. The resulting canal bottom sedimentation was restricting flow and creating a safety hazard for the proper functioning of the G-56 control structure. The District determined that there was a need to repair and protect the canal banks to keep the conveyance of the Hillsboro Canal at its design capacity. Proposed work plans included specific subtasks, milestones, and deliverables per the Everglades Restoration & Capital Projects Engineering Submittal Requirements: 1) Reconnaissance Study/Feasibility Study or a Project Implementation Report; 2) Design Documentation Report for Basis of Design (DDR); 3) Preliminary Design; 4) Intermediate Plans and Specifications; 5) Final Plans and Specifications and 6) Corrected Final/Ready to Advertise (RTA). METHODOLOGY & APPROACH A Reconnaissance, Feasibility Study and Implementation Report was performed and consisted of the following activities: A) Site Investigations (topographic and bathymetric surveys, geotechnical survey, environmental wetland/upland assessment, tree/vegetation removal plan, dock assessment and removal replacement plan, and permitting requirements of the FDEP, USACE, BCEPD, and FDOT); B) Design Criteria Development; C) Hydraulic Analysis; D) Project Layout and Evaluation of Options; E) Project Features; F) Opinion of Probable Construction Cost (including a 50-year life cycle cost analysis of operations and maintenance costs based on conceptual designs; G) Identification of Regulatory/Permit Requirements; H) Quality Management Reviews; and 1) Electronic copies of Model Input and Output files to duplicate the model output. A Design Documentation Report (DDR) was prepared to provide the basis of design for the Hillsboro Canal Bank Stabilization Project.

Various design options for armoring the banks were studied and evaluated for meeting the project's goals and objectives. Performed geotechnical and slope stability analysis for typical canal cross -sections with different slope stabilization alternatives for different water levels, normal operating levels, dried-up conditions and a 100-year flood. The slope stabilization alternatives analyzed included Rip Rap Types A and B, High Performance Turf Reinforcement Mat, Articulated Concrete Block Mat and Gabion Mattress. The analysis results were used to formulate the intermediate and final design to assess for cost- effectiveness and constructability and refined for the final selection of slope stabilization alternative. Developed Basis of Design Report along with various Technical Memorandums. Per intermediate design results, Slope stability tests, H&H analysis, and specific cost analysis for each option were performed, and recommendations provided for the best, most effective option for meeting the goals and objectives. These included using High Performance Turf Reinforcement Mats (HPTRM) for sections 1 through 4 and Articulated Concrete Blocks Mats (ACBM) for Section 5. Other alternatives considered included Gabions and Rock Rip Rap. The Final Plans and Specifications Submittal included: 1) A draft of all plans listed on the Plan Index Sheet prepared in sufficient detail for advertising and bidding for construction; 2) A draft of all specifications listed in the Preliminary Design submittal and all pertinent technical specifications for construction; 3) A list and description of revisions to the DDR, based on design activities and reviews since the Preliminary Design submittal; 4) A summary of DCM compliance and results; 5) An updated Construction Schedule; 6) An updated Opinion of Probable Construction Cost; 7) An updated H&H analysis with bridge scour calculations; and 8) A preliminary Maintenance of Traffic (MOT) plan. Constructability Review was performed to review the contract plans for the project and to determine whether or not the improvements were constructable or if changes could be made to the design to economize and optimize the improvements. RADISE performed geotechnical and slope stability analysis fortypical canal cross -sections with different slope stabilization alternatives for different water levels, normal operating levels, dried-up conditions and a 100-year flood. The slope stabilization alternatives analyzed included Rip Rap Types A and B, High Performance Turf Reinforcement Mat, Articulated Concrete Block Mat and Gabion Mattress. Because of the combination of the vast slope differences and existing canal COLLIER COUNTY I RPS NO. 21-7847 1 GOODLETTE-FRANK DITCH IMPROVEMENTS DESIGN SERVICES 1WRMA WATER RESOURCES I ENGINEERING right of way (ROW) width constraints, the slope stability of each section was tested. Subsequently, design canal side slopes were recommended based on site -specific conditions. These slope stability evaluations followed procedures described in USACE EM 1110-2-1902, "Slope Stability." The slope stability analyses were performed for static and rapid drawdown water levels. Three (3) conditions were analyzed for slope stability: • Normal High -Water Level (NHWL): +10.0 feet NGVD • Normal Low Water Level (NLWL): (Varies) +0 to +2.0 feet NGVD • Rapid Drawdown (RPD) from +7.5 to +2.8 feet NGVD Not all of the proposed erosion protection materials can be applied at the steep (1H:1V) slope, thus only Gabion Mattresses and ACBM were considered applicable for this SS testing.

Due to the frequency and intensity of hurricanes, tropical depressions, and thunderstorms in Florida, LWDD established the canal rehabilitation program to provide effective flood control for public safety. Actively engaging in the regular maintenance and rehabilitation of these canals provides free flow of water in the channels and provides unencumbered access along both sides of the canal banks. In 2018, LWDD commissioned WGI to provide right-of- way exhibits for ownership and easement interests, as well as the field staking of LWDD right-of-way, to support LWDD in their efforts to perform canal maintenance and rehabilitation. These exhibits provide useful data for District meetings and reports and provide consultants a means of establishing existing right-of-way. Once established in the field, right-of-way lines are staked for the purpose of clearing and identifying encroachments and to visually mark the right-of-way lines. Staking efforts involve maneuvering through heavy vegetation, as well as managing strict timelines due to the longevity of wooden stakes along neighboring property lines. Once staked, crews add paint lines at the base of each stake as evidence of staking (a safeguard in the event of displacement/removal.) Exhibit deliverables COLLIER COUNTY I RPS NO. 21-7847 1 GOODLETTE-FRANK DITCH IMPROVEMENTS DESIGN SERVICES 1WRMA WATER RESOURCES I ENGINEERING include AutoCAD files and PDF files of drafted sheets. Staking deliverables include stakes in the ground and an AutoCAD file of points and identified encroachments, with a surveyors report of supporting evidence. Since 2018, WGI has provided exhibits for more than 50 miles of right-of-way and staked over 15 miles of right-of-way. Maintenance and rehabilitation efforts are scheduled through 2021, with continued support from WGI.

This Basin consists of approximately 2,072.3 acres and discharges to the C-24 Canal via the Monterrey Waterway through the MW-1 and MW-1A Control Structures. Per a previous engineering and field study the E-3 Canal was not found to suffer from severe bank erosion and flood level of service (LOS). Some of the E-3 Canal banks have eroded overtime and/or have been heavily invaded by exotic trees and understory vegetation which contributes to sediment discharges into the C-24 Canal and the St. Lucie River Estuary. The City of Port St. Lucie selected WGI to perform geotechnical investigations and stabilization design of approximately 1.45 miles of the E-3 Canal. '^ SW Gastador Avenue Nmmmber 18, 2015 @ 6PM December z,2015@6PM The Scope of Services consisted of two (2) phases. Design Phase I included research of the existing soils within the project limits, preparation of a Geotechnical Analysis Report including recommendations for long term and low maintenance improvement options, conceptual typical canal cross sections for the recommended options, preliminary cost estimates for each option, and conducting an informational meeting with City staff to discuss and select a recommended improvement option. Design Phase II includes finalizing typical cross sections, preparing construction plans and specifications for the selected canal stabilization retrofit design alternative, engineer's cost estimate, bid documents, obtaining all necessary permits, conducting a public informational meeting and utility coordination. WGI has completed the Phase I scope of work. Survey and geotechnical data and stability testing, and H&H modeling analysis results were applied to develop various canal cross section stabilization design alternatives including an alternative to replace the open channel with conduit pipe. The City of Port St. Lucie decided that the lack of drainage easements and difficulty for operation & maintenance activities (the canal is the back of properties) mandates that the canal be replaced by a buried storm sewer pipe. WGI is in the process of Phase II plans and specifications for the replacement of 1,5 miles of canals with dual 48", 54" and 60" HDPE pipe and associated manhole, junction and headwall appurtenances.

The Park Avenue Ditch is located within the 79.7 square mile Lake Lafayette watershed. The entire Park Avenue Ditch catchment area is composed of 2,520 acres, and WGI's analysis entailed the western 525 acres. The Park Avenue Ditch open channel discharges runoff from a densely populated urban area with approximately 35% directly connected impervious areas to a stormwater management system of inlets, pipes, and peri meter outfalls. The downstream portion of the ditch has been modeled and mapped in detail by FEMA as part of the East Park Avenue watershed hydrologic and hydraulic study. The City performed a topographic survey of the open channel and found severe bank erosion specifically through the crossing of the Blairstone Road bridge. The scope of services consisted of two phases. Design Phase I included research of the existing soils within the project limits, preparation of recommendations for long term and low maintenance improvement options, conceptual typical canal cross sections for the recommended armoring options, and preliminary cost estimates for each option. Design Phase II included finalizing typical cross sections, preparing construction plans and specifications for the selected canal stabilization retrofit design alternative, engineer's cost estimate, bid documents, obtaining all necessary permits, and utility coordination. 9 — WGI's hydrologic and hydraulic modeling effort included the K preparation of an ICPR model of the contributory drainage area, and the FDOT application for critical duration methodology to determine the design peak discharges for the 2, 5, 10, 25, 50, 100, and 500 drainage level of service.

The project ditch segment was located along west Side of Goodlette-Frank Road Between Granada Boulevard and Pompei Lane, Section 15, Township 49, Range 15, Naples, Collier County, Florida 34103 The purpose of the geotechnical study was to explore the general soil conditions over the project area for the proposed erosion control armament pilot program project and to provide geotechnical recommendations for armament construction at the subject site. The subsurface soil and groundwater conditions along the existing ditch embankments were explored with three (3) Standard Penetration Test (SPIT) borings. SPT tests were performed in general accordance with ASTM Procedure D-1586-11, "Standard Penetration Test (SPT) and Split -Barrel Sampling of Soils". The SPT borings were extended to a depth of 20-feet below the existing ground surface in the area of the proposed embankment improvements. The quantity, depth, and locations of the SPT boring locations were determined by FORGE. A representative of FORGE located the boring in the field based on both above and below ground utilities present in the vicinity of the work area. An engineer from FORGE classified soil samples taken from the borings. The boring logs summarizing our findings are presented on Sheet 1 in the Appendix of this report. Laboratory testing was conducted on representative soil samples obtained from the borings. Two types of armoring were considered, and FEI provided preliminary recommendations for geotechnical installation of the selected alternative (Hydro Turf-Z).

Amico, P.E., President, (239) 597-3111 Collier County Project No.: 51144.8 Completion: July 2019 COLLIER COUNTY I RPS NO. 21-7847 1 GOODLETTE-FRANK DITCH IMPROVEMENTS DESIGN SERVICES 1WRMA WATER RESOURCES I ENGINEERING PROJECT APPROACH/TIME & BUDGET PROJECT UNDERSTANDING The Goodlette Road Ditch Improvement project (Ditch) is one of eight (8) alternative projects identified in the Gordon River Improvements Master Plan (ABB, 2017). The proposed project includes improving the flow carrying capacity of an existing ditch located on the west side of Goodlette Road from Golden Gate Parkway to just south of Pine Ridge Road (excluding the Goodlette Road Pilot Project area), a distance of approximately two (2) miles. The project shall be designed to provide an adequate flood protection level of service for this area against a twenty-five (25) year, three (3) day storm event. As the design is being partially funded through a FEMA/Hazard Mitigation Grant Program (HMGP) awarded by the Florida Division of Emergency Management (FDEM) (DR 4337-299-R) and EPA's HMGP grants funding guidelines require that funds for construction of the project be awarded only if the applicant can demonstrate that designed features of the project can achieve a desirable Benefit/Cost ratio (significantly greater than 1.0), it is imperative that the selected design consultant be extremely familiar with the details of the grant award and the associated required BCA deliverables. PROJECT APPROACH Task A — Survey Survey execution is needed to ensure that the project design team will have a full understanding of the projects area, physical constraints, and potential impacts likely to be caused by the installation of proposed, culverts and conveyance improvements. Jeff Cooner, PSM of WGI, based in Fort Myers, will be designated as the Team Task Manager to assemble all pertinent Right-of-way line location, above ground objects (i.e., utilities, vegetation, fences, etc.), and obtaining cross sections every 100' and/or where changes in existing conditions dictate. Jeff will also coordinate WGI's SUE activities to locate underground utilities. (There is an existing underground stormwater collection pipe running parallel and adjacent to the existing ditch along the east). Task B — Geotechnical Assessment Geotechnical exploration will be performed by Forge Engineering, Inc. (WRMA team member). Robert McGinnis and his knowledge of the Ditch armorning type Selection Project will be invaluable to the completion of geotechnical exploration. WRMA has studied the "Proposed Erosion Control Armament Pilot Program" Report (Forge, July 2019) and its preliminary recommendations for installation of either the Filterpoint Fabriform or HydroTurf-Z systems through the rest of the ditch alignment. By increasing the existing soil's angle of repose and designing the embankment to be sloped as high as 1.5:1, Forge Engineering believes the installation of either embankment armament system will protect the surficial granular soil from slumping down the embankment. WRMA also noticed that in the Civil Plans for Goodlette Road Ditch West Bank Reconstruction & Stabilization, a side slope of 1H:1.75V was used for design without performing side slope stability modeling for safety factor calculation. The first task of the overall soil stability analysis to be conducted as part of this project is to determine the geotechnical characteristics of the native/existing soils. Subsurface conditions at the site will be explored with Standard Penetration Test (SPIT) borings to a depth of 30 feet below the existing surface. Task C — Design, Permitting, Opinion of Probable Cost, and Construction Bid Documents There are many design considerations that will influence the final ditch conveyance cross section and armoring including Aesthetics & O&M access. Forge Engineering will perform stability analysis in each section of the Ditch. Forge will first test to verify that the slope in each section would be naturally stable without the use of erosion protection material. Once the stable slope without erosion protection is known, this slope will be compared to section specific constraints. The ditch has existing right of way width (ROW) constraints that limit the choice of mild to flat side slopes that can be constructed to achieve a top of bank inside the ROW boundaries, while also providing a flat maintenance path for County O&M staff. This will require the design of steeper side slopes to maintain a minimum bottom width. However, with steeper the side slopes, the erosion protection material armoring options decrease significantly. COLLIER COUNTY I RPS NO. 21-7847 1 GOODLETTE-FRANK DITCH IMPROVEMENTS DESIGN SERVICES 1WRMA WATER RESOURCES I ENGINEERING The ABB Master Plan report indicated steep 1:1 side slopes. However, the RPS scope of work indicates that 1:1 side slopes are not an option. The Pilot Project indicates 1: 1.5 side slopes are feasible, and slope stability analysis model evaluations will be undertaken following procedures described in EM 1110-2-1902 "Slope Stability', to identify suitable armoring choices. The slope stability analyses will be performed for static and rapid drawdown water levels. Three (3) conditions will be analyzed for slope stability: • Normal High -Water Level (NHWL): Varies in feet NGVD (as determined by H&H model for selected design storm) • Normal Low (or control) Water Level (NLWL): Varies in feet NGVD (as determined by H&H model/DS controls) • Normal Low or Rapid Drawdown (RPD if applicable during Hurricanes): Varies feet NGVD (as determined by O&M) Slope stability is determined by calculating a minimum factor of safety (FS) associated with each slope. Required minimum safety factor for Static and RPD conditions are 1.5 and 1.1, respectively. WRMA will perform a technical literature evaluation of various bank protection alternatives for steep slopes long-term stabilization along approximately two miles of the ditch. These will include the potential installation of Full Depth Articulated Concrete Block Mats (ACBM), High Performance Turf Reinforcement Mats (HPTRM), Gabion Mattresses, Rock Riprap, HydroTurf, Fabriform and other state - of -the -art systems successfully applied in other municipalities. Factor such as site deployment/constructability, wearing reliability, replacement life cycle, cost, aesthetics, and O&M requirements will be included in a ranking evaluation matrix. Evaluation results will be presented to the County PM to select the number of armoring material that meet the 1.5:1 steep SS criteria for Slope-W model efforts stability testing. There are many design considerations that will influence the final ditch conveyance cross section and armoring including 3 culvert crossings (RCP to Box Culverts); the ditch's east side slopes currently stabilized with a fabric -formed armoring system along the entire length of the project and will be removed from the proposed ditch capacity improvements. This impacts demolition costs. Additionally, several existing outfalls will need to be evaluated for modification and treatments, such as headwalls or mitered ends to accommodate the proposed cross section/armoring design, and maintenance access. Once the final and accepted slope stabilization system has been selected, WRMA will prepare 30% plan and profile design sheets with baseline stationing, current aerial photo overlay and preliminary cost estimates. The project preliminary design will be adjusted to satisfy County review comments and a 60% design drawing set will be prepared. The 60% plan set will "seal" the design option in place. District/FDEP ERP and other required environmental, state, and/or federal permits will be processed at the 60% plan design milestone. Additional minor specifications and technical adjustments to the selected design option will be made at 90% plans, and a final Engineer's opinion of Probable Cost prepared. WRMA will prepare 100% construction plans and specifications, a project regular and long-term O&M manual. A Bid Plan Set and documents will be prepared along with a budget for the design engineer to provide oversight during construction including, shop drawing review and approval, observation with weekly report/progress photos, contractor invoice review and approval, answering inquiries, completion certification and record drawings. Task D — Hydrologic and Hydraulic (H&H) Study (Benefit -Cost Analysis) — Demonstrating project's mitigation against future flood loss (Hazard Mitigation Grant Program Grant Requirement) The RPS states that under the FEMA's HMGP grants funding guidelines, the funds for construction of the project will be approved only if the applicant can demonstrate that designed features of the project can achieve a desirable Benefit/Cost ratio. This requires a firm well versed in FEMA/HMGP methodology as there is no room for errors and construction funds will only be apportioned based on the final BIC results. WRMA is very experienced in this field and just recently procured $3.5 million for a FEMA/HMGP project for the Town of Lake Park (Population 9000). WRMA modelers, will apply the information from Hydrologic -Hydraulic model simulations generated by ABB as part of this task for the existing watershed conditions, and of the ongoing peripheral Gordon Master Plan projects with recommended design features (improved channel, culvert upgrades, etc.). However, WRMA noticed that many of the affected flooded areas west of the ditch were only modeled as stage nodes in the XPSWMM model, and that ABB did not calibrate the model to the Hurricane Irma known flood inundation. Furthermore, many stormwater management and flood relief projects have been implemented in these Ditch western subbasins after Hurricane Irma. Some of these projects may have used the XPSWMM or other models such as the ICPR4 H&H model. COLLIER COUNTY I RPS NO. 21-7847 1 GOODLETTE-FRANK DITCH IMPROVEMENTS DESIGN SERVICES 1WRMA WATER RESOURCES I ENGINEERING SAM WRMA will develop a base 2021 project model using the ABB model information and the newly acquired surveying data for the ditch. The model will incorporate all available Gordon Basin and ancillary project information A that will be re -calibrated to Irma and other storm events as available. The project is using FEMA/HMGP funds and the preferred modeling technique for federally funded projects is the use of the HEC-RAS model hydraulic methodology for ditch backwater computations. WRMA will develop the H&H base model (XPWWMM or ICPR4-2D model as agreed upon with the County) to generate the required peak hydrographs and flood stages. The FEMA/HMGP methodology requires the use of three (3) design storms as a minimum (10, 25 and 100-year frequency). However, WRMA s experience indicates that most flood western subbasins relief projects would have been designed for lower storm events such as the 2- and 5-year frequency. Additionally, our experience indicates that running additional events (2, 5, 10, 25, 50 and 100- year) will produce higher benefits when compared to damages for B/C calculation. The use of a 2D model (such ICPR4-2D) and HEC-RAS5 2D are essential for determining the flood reduction in subbasins with no direct connection to the ditch (i.e., sheet flow contribution). LiDAR data will be used to generate Rain on Mesh 2- D flows into the ditch that can result in a higher pre -vs post B/C analysis, than with conventional link- storage node XPWMM model methodology. The peak flows would then be used in a hydraulic HEC-RAS model pass for the conveyance portion of the analysis (i.e., rating the replacement culverts and armoring options). The pre -project (existing) condition will be modeled to show what houses and roadways were flooded during Hurricane IRMA. The information will be provided to FDEM, and WRMA will be available for response to any additional requests for information that may be requested by the FDEM staff. WRMA is very experienced with the coordination process of the FDEM/FEMA staff in Tallahassee, Florida. The WRMA proposed team also includes an experienced Archeologist (Bob Carr), as is typically required by the HMGP grant process to address potential Archeological remains in the project area. WRMA applies innovative techniques (such as the 2-D H&H model methodology) and is very proficient with the generation of HMGP Benefits tabular data in terms of the reduction of flood stages and durations to be achieved by the building structures and roads in the area affected by the project. WRMA applies depth -damage functions methodology of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers for building structures and contents, and the estimated cost indices for road damage repair from the Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) cost or any other credible sources. The project area FEMA DFIRMS indicate the presence of Special Flood Hazard Areas Zone AE and AH along the western boundary of the project between Pine Ridge Rd and Golden Gate Pkwy. WRMA will assess if any of the proposed ditch improvements produce upstream and downstream impacts (i.e., stage, velocity, duration) of alterations to the floodplain including change to the extent or depth of the Special Flood Hazard Area (SFHA) or changes to the Base Flood Elevation (BFE). WRMA will address the existing and proposed project conditions for pipe shape, material, length, inlet and outlet conditions, performance level, identify whether the proposed condition satisfies the local floodplain ordinance and local and state storm water management requirements. A licensed professional engineer will stamp the final project reports and certify that the calculations comply with 44 CFR 60.3. Task E — Post -Design Services The proposed WRMA/WGI team is comprised of a staff that is very experienced in serving as the Engineer -of Record and are available to assist the County through the construction bidding period, provide clarifications regarding plans and specifications as needed, and provide input/approval on contractor selection and presentations to the Board of County Commissioners. Our team can further meet the requirements for a bid award recommendation letter and the assessment of contractor/subcontractor references. Though provided under a separate contract, the WRMA team will is also capable and available for CEI services. Task F — Public Input, Meetings and Presentations Kaye Molnar of Cella Molnar Associates, Inc., (CMA) a WRMA team member, is a well-known communications specialist that has worked on previous Collier County CIP projects. CMA will coordinate all Public Outreach efforts and communicate the Droiect's benefits with affected Drooerty owners/stakeholders in accordance with Countv input.

The WRMA Team brings the expertise necessary to ensure these factors are closely monitored and achieved. The project organization has been structured to be responsive to Collier County and the request for proposal. In structuring the organization, technical expertise was combined with effective management and quality control to complement Collier County's own organization. Important features of this organizational structure are: ■ Minimize Client Management Effort—WRMA will function as an extension of County staff to advance projects toward completion. To minimize supervision, the WRMA has assembled a team of experienced staff to perform the duties required of the project. WRMA also has the resources available to quickly mobilize the appropriate personnel for any unexpected or unusual design considerations. ■ Maintain the Project Schedule — For everyone involved at both the County and the engineering firm, performance is based on meeting the schedule. WRMA is committed to meeting the required schedule and ensuring our subconsultants meet the schedule. ■ Coordination and Reporting — WRMA will be required to communicate and coordinate with all participants on the project team and the County's Project Manager. ■ Clear, concise progress monitoring — Including updates prior to production meetings, will keep the County's Project Manager informed and up to date. This will eliminate the need to monitor the consultant's day-to-day activities and will provide early warning for any project problems or upcoming milestones. ■ Assembling an Effective Project Team — The preceding issues cannot be adequately addressed without an Effective Project Team. WRMA has assembled a team of competent, experienced professionals who will provide the required expertise for this project. The team will be led by Raul Mercado, PE, CFM. The organization structure of the project team provides direct lines of communication and responsibility with the project manager acting as the primary client liaison. PROJECT MANAGEMENT Delivering high -quality and cost-effective project results begins my assembling a team of qualified professionals who maintain the experience necessary to complete an assigned scope of work. Our selected team has been structured to Minimize Client Management Effort, Maintain the Project Schedule, and Report Clear and Concise Task Progress. To meet Collier County's efficiency expectations, WRMA has established a Methodology and Approach as follows: The organizational structure of the project team provides direct lines of communication and responsibility with the project manager acting as the primary client liaison. WRMA's assigned Project Manager will be Raul Mercado, PE, CFM. He has more than 35 years of engineering experience and a proven track record of performing and managing Capital Improvement Program (CIP) projects for local municipalities and for water management County programs. Michael Mercado, PE, Assistant Project Manager, will assist the project manager in the day-to-day execution of the contract assigned Tasks and ensure communication between the WRMA team and the County remains uninterrupted in the event the lead project manager is unavailable. Task Managers will be assigned from each company as shown on the Organizational Chart. Project delivery and management will take place by optimizing staff time and firm locations. Overall project management will be performed by Raul Mercado, PE, CFM, and will take place from WRMA's main office in Palm Beach County within 2.5 hours of the project site and the County's offices. Mr. Mercado has managed similar projects for the SFWMD and within the Fort Myers/Naples areas without any significant time constraints or delays. COLLIER COUNTY I RPS NO. 21-7847 1 GOODLETTE-FRANK DITCH IMPROVEMENTS DESIGN SERVICES 1WRMA WATER RESOURCES I ENGINEERING Jeff Cooner, PSM (WGI), located in Fort Myers, will assist Mr. Mercado with any project logistic issues. Furthermore, Robert McGinnis, PE (FORGE) and Kaye Molnar (CMA), are also locally based in the Naples/Fort Myers area and will be available to attend to project needs. QUALITY ASSURANCE WRMA will implement a rigorous Quality Assurance Quality Control (QA/QC) program. The purpose of QA/QC Plan is to facilitate the preparation of accurate and complete high -quality drawings, specifications, calculations, and related documents furnished as part of the project's scope of work. The Project Team (including subconsultants) has responsibility for the accuracy and completeness of the contract documents prepared for the project and shall check all materials accordingly. The key elements of our quality control plan include: Cear assignments of responsibilities to all WRMA project team members to ensure the right people will be available at the right time to review and comment on the project design and plans production; Project reviews to ensure that WRMA will address all of the critical issues on the project in accordance with the County's expectations and to ensure the project design meets current standards, is appropriate for the project scope, and is cost effective for construction; QC document tracking procedures to allow for monitoring, review, and improvement of the Quality Control process. The QA/QC Manager assigned to the project will monitor the QC activities. Each Task Manager will be selected from the subconsultant staff providing the required project support. The Task Manager will be responsible for managing the activities and for providing quality control of the requested project support deliverable. A QA/QC certification letter will be requested from each subconsultant at the time of deliverable submittal. Once submitted for review, the WRMA Project and QA/QC managers will perform additional QC prior to final deliverable transmittal to the County Project Manager. Using Design Quality Management (DQM) allows for the training and development of personnel as it allows them to think and act creatively to anticipate problems and find solutions. Our DQM program is based on identification of key components that are necessary to prepare a quality design product, including procedures, specifications, standards, and acceptance criteria. Key DQM guidelines include: Computations Calculations shall be checked for each project task. Attention shall be given to documenting design references, sketches, and notes. Procedures and guidelines for preparing, checking, and approving computations. • Complete the heading information in calculation sheets including Preparer's Name and Date, Project Number, Subject, and "Sheet -of -Number." • Complete references including sources of data, methods used in computations, • If a formula is first used in a computation, write out complete formula and identify all parameters and units. Identify all input data and sources. • Complex computations require two separate individuals, qualified to exercise independent judgment, for the preparation, checking, and approval functions. • Check input data for computer programs and for spreadsheet programs which have been independently checked. • Use covers for binding sets of computations; make appropriate entries as to project number, project description, client name, location of the project, and type of computation on bound volume cover. • Save computations to a pdf. • Evidence of step-by-step checking and approval should be used. The following colors are suggested: Checking: Red, Approving: Blue COLLIER COUNTY I RPS NO. 21-7847 1 GOODLETTE-FRANK DITCH IMPROVEMENTS DESIGN SERVICES 1WRMA WATER RESOURCES I ENGINEERING Drawings Work Print: A print made in the developmental stages of a drawing.

PAST PERFORMANCE OF PREVIOUS PROJECTS WRMA has successfully performed FEMA/HMGP grant -based projects. The Town of Lake Park Lake Shore Drive Drainage Improvements project (as detailed in Project Profiles) was on a reduced timetable (per FEMA's HMGP timetable) as the original consultant was not able to achieve a B/C greater than one. WRMA successfully achieved the goal of enhancing the BCA within two months (and within the FEMA/HMGP datelines) to be able for the Town to secure $3.5 million for construction in FY2019. The WRMA work was performed within budget and with no change orders. Likewise, WRMA and WGI are very experienced working together for the completion of many ditch and canal bank stabilization projects similarto this Collier County RPS. These projects, provided in Evaluation Criteria #2, required complex survey, geotechnical and H&H modeling coordination between the firms and were successfully completed on time and on budget (references provided). Lastly, Raul Mercado, PE, CFM, the assigned project manager, has extensive experience with ditch and canal bank stabilization including the City of Tallahassee 0.8-mile Park Avenue Ditch Canal Bank Stabilization Project, the City of Port St. Lucie 1.5-mile E-3 Canal Bank Stabilization Project and the SFWMD 10-mile Hillsboro Canal Bank Stabilization Project. All these projects included elements of the Collier County RPS: FEMA/HMGP funding, H&H modeling for BCA, soil slope stability testing for armoring design, retrofit of roadway crossings, permitting and Bidding Assistance, and CEI services. COLLIER COUNTY I RPS NO. 21-7847 1 GOODLETTE-FRANK DITCH IMPROVEMENTS DESIGN SERVICES 1WRMA WATER RESOURCES I ENGINEERING RECENT, CURRENT & PROJECTED WORKLOAD A TEAM DESIGNED WITH PURPOSE Staff Expertise with Open Channel Design, Hydraulic Modeling and HMGP BCA Analysis Our design team leverages WRMA's deep experience in open channel design, ditch and canal bank stabilization, hydraulic modeling, and FEMA HMGP Benefit Cost Analysis. Through our experience with prior BCA analyses, and in dealing with FDEM on prior projects, WRMA ensures the County that all relevant hydraulic data and potential impacts to the surrounding locale will be factored into the BCA analysis, thereby providing for the best BCA ratio possible. Staff Expertise with Transportation Engineering and Surveying Wantman Group (WGI) brings to the table decades of experience in major roadway and corridor improvements projects for all FDOT districts, turnpike, and Floridian Counties. With regards to Surveying and Mapping, WGI offers the County the absolute hands down best surveying capabilities in the Southeastern United States. Wantman Group's capabilities in mobile LiDAR, drone mapping and traditional surveying is simply unmatched by any other professional services firm in the State of Florida. Staff Expertise with Geotechnical Investigations Forge Engineering (FORGE) has been a staple and reliable geotechnical engineering firm in the Collier County/Naples area for decades. Forge was selected for this team because of their highly experienced staff, particularly in light of the fact that they have worked in the Naples area for decades and specific project experience with regards to this proposed ditch stabilization project. Forge Engineering provided the original geotechnical investigations for the previous Pilot Project the County performed for the Goodlette-Frank Rd ditch stabilization. As such, their knowledge of the soil conditions and the proposed geotechnical scope of work for this project makes Forge an essential partner on the team. A Prepared and Well -Balanced Team Ready to Mobilize Leveraging WRMA's deep experience in bank stabilization work (see projects) and WGI's expert level capabilities in roadway design, and surveying, the WRMA-WGI team presents a well -staffed and highly experienced design team, particularly in the areas where it matters most. With Forge Engineering providing critical data for the existing conditions within the ditch, the WRMA-WGI team is prepared to mobilize per the project schedule provided in this response. RECENT, CURRENT AND PROJECTED CONTRACT ASSIGNMENTS WRMA currently holds the Continuing Professional Services Contracts with the following municipalities: • Town of Lake Park, FL (2018-2021) — Four Minor task assignments • City of West Palm Beach, FL (2021-2026) — One pending assignments • City of Tallahassee, FL (2017-2020) - No current assignments • St. Lucie County, FL (2017-2021) — No current assignments • Indian River County, FL (2018-2021) — No current assignments • Brevard County, FL (2019-2022) — No current assignments • Collier County, FL —One pending assignment RECENT, CURRENT AND PROJECTED STAFF AVAILBILITY Efficient Scheduling & Staff Resources Available All proposed staff and resources on the WRMA-WGI TEAM are available immediately to start work on the proposed ditch bank stabilization design on the West side of Goodlette-Frank Rd, beginning with the project discovery and data collection tasks, including surveys, geotechnical investigations, and utility investigation.

(Employer). The purpose of this agreement is to set forth terms and conditions which the Employer will follow while participating in E-Verify. E-Verify is a program that electronically confirms an employee's eligibility to work in the United States after completion of Form 1-9, Employment Eligibility Verification (Form 1-9). This Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) explains certain features of the E-Verify program and describes specific responsibilities of the Employer, the Social Security Administration (SSA), and DHS. Authority for the E-Verify program is found in Title IV, Subtitle A, of the Illegal Immigration Reform and Immigrant Responsibility Act of 1996 (IIRIRA), Pub. L. 104-208, 110 Stat. 3009, as amended (8 U.S.C. § 1324a note). The Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Subpart 22.18, "Employment Eligibility Verification" and Executive Order 12989, as amended, provide authority for Federal contractors and subcontractors (Federal contractor) to use E-Verify to verify the employment eligibility of certain employees working on Federal contracts. ARTICLE II RESPONSIBILITIES A. RESPONSIBILITIES OF THE EMPLOYER 1. The Employer agrees to display the following notices supplied by DHS in a prominent place that is clearly visible to prospective employees and all employees who are to be verified through the system: a. Notice of E-Verify Participation b. Notice of Right to Work 2. The Employer agrees to provide to the SSA and DHS the names, titles, addresses, and telephone numbers of the Employer representatives to be contacted about E-Verify. The Employer also agrees to keep such information current by providing updated information to SSA and DHS whenever the representatives' contact information changes. 3. The Employer agrees to grant E-Verify access only to current employees who need E-Verify access. Employers must promptly terminate an employee's E-Verify access if the employer is separated from the company or no longer needs access to E-Verify. Page 1 of 17 E-Verify MOU for Employers I Revision Date 06/01/13 � sect v- orE-Verif Company ID Number: 1431834 4. The Employer agrees to become familiar with and comply with the most recent version of the E-Verify User Manual. 5. The Employer agrees that any Employer Representative who will create E-Verify cases will complete the E-Verify Tutorial before that individual creates any cases. a. The Employer agrees that all Employer representatives will take the refresher tutorials when prompted by E-Verify in order to continue using E-Verify. Failure to complete a refresher tutorial will prevent the Employer Representative from continued use of E-Verify. 6. The Employer agrees to comply with current Form 1-9 procedures, with two exceptions: a. If an employee presents a "List B" identity document, the Employer agrees to only accept "List B" documents that contain a photo. (List B documents identified in 8 C.F.R. § 274a.2(b)(1)(B)) can be presented during the Form I-9 process to establish identity.) If an employee objects to the photo requirement for religious reasons, the Employer should contact E-Verify at 888-464-4218. b. If an employee presents a DHS Form 1-551 (Permanent Resident Card), Form 1-766 (Employment Authorization Document), or U.S. Passport or Passport Card to complete Form 1-9, the Employer agrees to make a photocopy of the document and to retain the photocopy with the employee's Form 1-9. The Employer will use the photocopy to verify the photo and to assist DHS with its review of photo mismatches that employees contest. DHS may in the future designate other documents that activate the photo screening tool. Note: Subject only to the exceptions noted previously in this paragraph, employees still retain the right to present any List A, or List B and List C, document(s) to complete the Form 1-9. 7. The Employer agrees to record the case verification number on the employee's Form 1-9 or to print the screen containing the case verification number and attach it to the employee's Form 1-9. 8. The Employer agrees that, although it participates in E-Verify, the Employer has a responsibility to complete, retain, and make available for inspection Forms 1-9 that relate to its employees, or from other requirements of applicable regulations or laws, including the obligation to comply with the antidiscrimination requirements of section 274B of the INA with respect to Form 1-9 procedures. a. The following modified requirements are the only exceptions to an Employer's obligation to not employ unauthorized workers and comply with the anti -discrimination provision of the INA: (1) List B identity documents must have photos, as described in paragraph 6 above; (2) When an Employer confirms the identity and employment eligibility of newly hired employee using E-Verify procedures, the Employer establishes a rebuttable presumption that it has not violated section 274A(a)(1)(A) of the Immigration and Nationality Act (INA) with respect to the hiring of that employee; (3) If the Employer receives a final nonconfirmation for an employee, but continues to employ that person, the Employer must notify DHS and the Employer is subject to a civil money penalty between $550 and $1,100 for each failure to notify DHS of continued employment following a final nonconfirmation; (4) If the Employer continues to employ an employee after receiving a final nonconfirmation, then the Employer is subject to a rebuttable presumption that it has knowingly Page 2 of 17 E-Verify MOU for Employers I Revision Date 06/01/13 � sect v- orE-Verif Company ID Number: 1431834 employed an unauthorized alien in violation of section 274A(a)(1)(A); and (5) no E-Verify participant is civilly or criminally liable under any law for any action taken in good faith based on information provided through the E-Verify. b. DHS reserves the right to conduct Form 1-9 compliance inspections, as well as any other enforcement or compliance activity authorized by law, including site visits, to ensure proper use of E-Verify. 9. The Employer is strictly prohibited from creating an E-Verify case before the employee has been hired, meaning that a firm offer of employment was extended and accepted and Form 1-9 was completed. The Employer agrees to create an E-Verify case for new employees within three Employer business days after each employee has been hired (after both Sections 1 and 2 of Form 1-9 have been completed), and to complete as many steps of the E-Verify process as are necessary according to the E-Verify User Manual. If E-Verify is temporarily unavailable, the three-day time period will be extended until it is again operational in order to accommodate the Employer's attempting, in good faith, to make inquiries during the period of unavailability. 10. The Employer agrees not to use E-Verify for pre -employment screening of job applicants, in support of any unlawful employment practice, or for any other use that this MOU or the E-Verify User Manual does not authorize. 11. The Employer must use E-Verify for all new employees. The Employer will not verify selectively and will not verify employees hired before the effective date of this MOU. Employers who are Federal contractors may qualify for exceptions to this requirement as described in Article II.B of this MOU. 12. The Employer agrees to follow appropriate procedures (see Article III below) regarding tentative nonconfirmations. The Employer must promptly notify employees in private of the finding and provide them with the notice and letter containing information specific to the employee's E-Verify case. The Employer agrees to provide both the English and the translated notice and letter for employees with limited English proficiency to employees. The Employer agrees to provide written referral instructions to employees and instruct affected employees to bring the English copy of the letter to the SSA. The Employer must allow employees to contest the finding, and not take adverse action against employees if they choose to contest the finding, while their case is still pending. Further, when employees contest a tentative nonconfirmation based upon a photo mismatch, the Employer must take additional steps (see Article III.B. below) to contact DHS with information necessary to resolve the challenge. 13. The Employer agrees not to take any adverse action against an employee based upon the employee's perceived employment eligibility status while SSA or DHS is processing the verification request unless the Employer obtains knowledge (as defined in 8 C.F.R. § 274a.1(1)) that the employee is not work authorized. The Employer understands that an initial inability of the SSA or DHS automated verification system to verify work authorization, a tentative nonconfirmation, a case in continuance (indicating the need for additional time for the government to resolve a case), or the finding of a photo mismatch, does not establish, and should not be interpreted as, evidence that the employee is not work authorized. In any of such cases, the employee must be provided a full and fair opportunity to contest the finding, and if he or she does so, the employee may not be terminated or suffer any adverse employment consequences based upon the employee's perceived employment eligibility status Page 3 of 17 E-Verify MOU for Employers I Revision Date 06/01/13 � sect v- orE-Verif Company ID Number: 1431834 (including denying, reducing, or extending work hours, delaying or preventing training, requiring an employee to work in poorer conditions, withholding pay, refusing to assign the employee to a Federal contract or other assignment, or otherwise assuming that he or she is unauthorized to work) until and unless secondary verification by SSA or DHS has been completed and a final nonconfirmation has been issued. If the employee does not choose to contest a tentative nonconfirmation or a photo mismatch or if a secondary verification is completed and a final nonconfirmation is issued, then the Employer can find the employee is not work authorized and terminate the employee's employment. Employers or employees with questions about a final nonconfirmation may call E-Verify at 1-888-464- 4218 (customer service) or 1-888-897-7781 (worker hotline). 14. The Employer agrees to comply with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and section 274B of the INA as applicable by not discriminating unlawfully against any individual in hiring, firing, employment eligibility verification, or recruitment or referral practices because of his or her national origin or citizenship status, or by committing discriminatory documentary practices. The Employer understands that such illegal practices can include selective verification or use of E-Verify except as provided in part D below, or discharging or refusing to hire employees because they appear or sound "foreign" or have received tentative nonconfirmations. The Employer further understands that any violation of the immigration -related unfair employment practices provisions in section 274B of the INA could subject the Employer to civil penalties, back pay awards, and other sanctions, and violations of Title VI could subject the Employer to back pay awards, compensatory and punitive damages. Violations of either section 274B of the INA or Title VII may also lead to the termination of its participation in E-Verify. If the Employer has any questions relating to the anti -discrimination provision, it should contact OSC at 1-800-255-8155 or 1-800-237-2515 (TDD). 15. The Employer agrees that it will use the information it receives from E-Verify only to confirm the employment eligibility of employees as authorized by this MOU. The Employer agrees that it will safeguard this information, and means of access to it (such as PINS and passwords), to ensure that it is not used for any other purpose and as necessary to protect its confidentiality, including ensuring that it is not disseminated to any person other than employees of the Employer who are authorized to perform the Employer's responsibilities under this MOU, except for such dissemination as may be authorized in advance by SSA or DHS for legitimate purposes. 16. The Employer agrees to notify DHS immediately in the event of a breach of personal information. Breaches are defined as loss of control or unauthorized access to E-Verify personal data. All suspected or confirmed breaches should be reported by calling 1-888-464-4218 or via email at E-Verify(@dhs.gov. Please use "Privacy Incident — Password" in the subject line of your email when sending a breach report to E-Verify. 17. The Employer acknowledges that the information it receives from SSA is governed by the Privacy Act (5 U.S.C. § 552a(i)(1) and (3)) and the Social Security Act (42 U.S.C. 1306(a)). Any person who obtains this information under false pretenses or uses it for any purpose other than as provided for in this MOU may be subject to criminal penalties. 18. The Employer agrees to cooperate with DHS and SSA in their compliance monitoring and evaluation of E-Verify, which includes permitting DHS, SSA, their contractors and other agents, upon Page 4 of 17 E-Verify MOU for Employers I Revision Date 06/01/13 � sect v- orE-Verif Company ID Number: 1431834 reasonable notice, to review Forms 1-9 and other employment records and to interview it and its employees regarding the Employer's use of E-Verify, and to respond in a prompt and accurate manner to DHS requests for information relating to their participation in E-Verify. 19. The Employer shall not make any false or unauthorized claims or references about its participation in E-Verify on its website, in advertising materials, or other media. The Employer shall not describe its services as federally -approved, federally -certified, or federally -recognized, or use language with a similar intent on its website or other materials provided to the public. Entering into this MOU does not mean that E-Verify endorses or authorizes your E-Verify services and any claim to that effect is false. 20. The Employer shall not state in its website or other public documents that any language used therein has been provided or approved by DHS, USCIS or the Verification Division, without first obtaining the prior written consent of DHS. 21. The Employer agrees that E-Verify trademarks and logos may be used only under license by DHS/USCIS (see M-795 (Web)) and, other than pursuant to the specific terms of such license, may not be used in any manner that might imply that the Employer's services, products, websites, or publications are sponsored by, endorsed by, licensed by, or affiliated with DHS, USCIS, or E-Verify. 22. The Employer understands that if it uses E-Verify procedures for any purpose other than as authorized by this MOU, the Employer may be subject to appropriate legal action and termination of its participation in E-Verify according to this MOU. B. RESPONSIBILITIES OF FEDERAL CONTRACTORS 1. If the Employer is a Federal contractor with the FAR E-Verify clause subject to the employment verification terms in Subpart 22.18 of the FAR, it will become familiar with and comply with the most current version of the E-Verify User Manual for Federal Contractors as well as the E-Verify Supplemental Guide for Federal Contractors. 2. In addition to the responsibilities of every employer outlined in this MOU, the Employer understands that if it is a Federal contractor subject to the employment verification terms in Subpart 22.18 of the FAR it must verify the employment eligibility of any "employee assigned to the contract" (as defined in FAR 22.1801). Once an employee has been verified through E-Verify by the Employer, the Employer may not create a second case for the employee through E-Verify. a. An Employer that is not enrolled in E-Verify as a Federal contractor at the time of a contract award must enroll as a Federal contractor in the E-Verify program within 30 calendar days of contract award and, within 90 days of enrollment, begin to verify employment eligibility of new hires using E-Verify. The Employer must verify those employees who are working in the United States, whether or not they are assigned to the contract. Once the Employer begins verifying new hires, such verification of new hires must be initiated within three business days after the hire date. Once enrolled in E-Verify as a Federal contractor, the Employer must begin verification of employees assigned to the contract within 90 calendar days after the date of enrollment or within 30 days of an employee's assignment to the contract, whichever date is later. Page 5 of 17 E-Verify MOU for Employers I Revision Date 06/01/13 � sect v- orE-Verif Company ID Number: 1431834 b. Employers enrolled in E-Verify as a Federal contractor for 90 days or more at the time of a contract award must use E-Verify to begin verification of employment eligibility for new hires of the Employer who are working in the United States, whether or not assigned to the contract, within three business days after the date of hire. If the Employer is enrolled in E-Verify as a Federal contractor for 90 calendar days or less at the time of contract award, the Employer must, within 90 days of enrollment, begin to use E-Verify to initiate verification of new hires of the contractor who are working in the United States, whether or not assigned to the contract. Such verification of new hires must be initiated within three business days after the date of hire. An Employer enrolled as a Federal contractor in E-Verify must begin verification of each employee assigned to the contract within 90 calendar days after date of contract award or within 30 days after assignment to the contract, whichever is later. c. Federal contractors that are institutions of higher education (as defined at 20 U.S.C. 1001(a)), state or local governments, governments of Federally recognized Indian tribes, or sureties performing under a takeover agreement entered into with a Federal agency under a performance bond may choose to only verify new and existing employees assigned to the Federal contract. Such Federal contractors may, however, elect to verify all new hires, and/or all existing employees hired after November 6, 1986. Employers in this category must begin verification of employees assigned to the contract within 90 calendar days after the date of enrollment or within 30 days of an employee's assignment to the contract, whichever date is later. d. Upon enrollment, Employers who are Federal contractors may elect to verify employment eligibility of all existing employees working in the United States who were hired after November 6, 1986, instead of verifying only those employees assigned to a covered Federal contract. After enrollment, Employers must elect to verify existing staff following DHS procedures and begin E-Verify verification of all existing employees within 180 days after the election. e. The Employer may use a previously completed Form 1-9 as the basis for creating an E-Verify case for an employee assigned to a contract as long as: i. That Form 1-9 is complete (including the SSN) and complies with Article II.A.6, ii. The employee's work authorization has not expired, and iii. The Employer has reviewed the Form 1-9 information either in person or in communications with the employee to ensure that the employee's Section 1, Form 1-9 attestation has not changed (including, but not limited to, a lawful permanent resident alien having become a naturalized U.S. citizen). f. The Employer shall complete a new Form 1-9 consistent with Article II.A.6 or update the previous Form 1-9 to provide the necessary information if: i. The Employer cannot determine that Form 1-9 complies with Article II.A.6, ii. The employee's basis for work authorization as attested in Section 1 has expired or changed, or iii. The Form 1-9 contains no SSN or is otherwise incomplete. Note: If Section 1 of Form 1-9 is otherwise valid and up-to-date and the form otherwise complies with Page 6 of 17 E-Verify MOU for Employers I Revision Date 06/01/13 � sect v- orE-Verif Company ID Number: 1431834 Article II.C.5, but reflects documentation (such as a U.S. passport or Form 1-551) that expired after completing Form 1-9, the Employer shall not require the production of additional documentation, or use the photo screening tool described in Article II.A.5, subject to any additional or superseding instructions that may be provided on this subject in the E-Verify User Manual. g. The Employer agrees not to require a second verification using E-Verify of any assigned employee who has previously been verified as a newly hired employee under this MOU or to authorize verification of any existing employee by any Employer that is not a Federal contractor based on this Article. 3. The Employer understands that if it is a Federal contractor, its compliance with this MOU is a performance requirement under the terms of the Federal contract or subcontract, and the Employer consents to the release of information relating to compliance with its verification responsibilities under this MOU to contracting officers or other officials authorized to review the Employer's compliance with Federal contracting requirements. C. RESPONSIBILITIES OF SSA 1. SSA agrees to allow DHS to compare data provided by the Employer against SSA's database. SSA sends DHS confirmation that the data sent either matches or does not match the information in SSA's database. 2. SSA agrees to safeguard the information the Employer provides through E-Verify procedures. SSA also agrees to limit access to such information, as is appropriate by law, to individuals responsible for the verification of Social Security numbers or responsible for evaluation of E-Verify or such other persons or entities who may be authorized by SSA as governed by the Privacy Act (5 U.S.C. § 552a), the Social Security Act (42 U.S.C. 1306(a)), and SSA regulations (20 CFR Part 401). 3. SSA agrees to provide case results from its database within three Federal Government work days of the initial inquiry. E-Verify provides the information to the Employer. 4. SSA agrees to update SSA records as necessary if the employee who contests the SSA tentative nonconfirmation visits an SSA field office and provides the required evidence. If the employee visits an SSA field office within the eight Federal Government work days from the date of referral to SSA, SSA agrees to update SSA records, if appropriate, within the eight -day period unless SSA determines that more than eight days may be necessary. In such cases, SSA will provide additional instructions to the employee. If the employee does not visit SSA in the time allowed, E-Verify may provide a final nonconfirmation to the employer. Note: If an Employer experiences technical problems, or has a policy question, the employer should contact E-Verify at 1-888-464-4218. D. RESPONSIBILITIES OF DHS 1. DHS agrees to provide the Employer with selected data from DHS databases to enable the Employer to conduct, to the extent authorized by this MOU: a. Automated verification checks on alien employees by electronic means, and Page 7 of 17 E-Verify MOU for Employers I Revision Date 06/01/13 � sect v- orE-Verif Company ID Number: 1431834 b. Photo verification checks (when available) on employees. 2. DHS agrees to assist the Employer with operational problems associated with the Employer's participation in E-Verify. DHS agrees to provide the Employer names, titles, addresses, and telephone numbers of DHS representatives to be contacted during the E-Verify process. 3. DHS agrees to provide to the Employer with access to E-Verify training materials as well as an E-Verify User Manual that contain instructions on E-Verify policies, procedures, and requirements for both SSA and DHS, including restrictions on the use of E-Verify. 4. DHS agrees to train Employers on all important changes made to E-Verify through the use of mandatory refresher tutorials and updates to the E-Verify User Manual. Even without changes to E-Verify, DHS reserves the right to require employers to take mandatory refresher tutorials. 5. DHS agrees to provide to the Employer a notice, which indicates the Employer's participation in E-Verify. DHS also agrees to provide to the Employer anti -discrimination notices issued by the Office of Special Counsel for Immigration -Related Unfair Employment Practices (OSC), Civil Rights Division, U.S. Department of Justice. 6. DHS agrees to issue each of the Employer's E-Verify users a unique user identification number and password that permits them to log in to E-Verify. 7. DHS agrees to safeguard the information the Employer provides, and to limit access to such information to individuals responsible for the verification process, for evaluation of E-Verify, or to such other persons or entities as may be authorized by applicable law. Information will be used only to verify the accuracy of Social Security numbers and employment eligibility, to enforce the INA and Federal criminal laws, and to administer Federal contracting requirements. 8. DHS agrees to provide a means of automated verification that provides (in conjunction with SSA verification procedures) confirmation or tentative nonconfirmation of employees' employment eligibility within three Federal Government work days of the initial inquiry. 9. DHS agrees to provide a means of secondary verification (including updating DHS records) for employees who contest DHS tentative nonconfirmations and photo mismatch tentative nonconfirmations. This provides final confirmation or nonconfirmation of the employees' employment eligibility within 10 Federal Government work days of the date of referral to DHS, unless DHS determines that more than 10 days may be necessary. In such cases, DHS will provide additional verification instructions. ARTICLE III REFERRAL OF INDIVIDUALS TO SSA AND DHS A. REFERRAL TO SSA 1.

The Employer also agrees to provide both the English and the translated notice and letter for employees with limited English proficiency to employees. The Employer agrees to provide written referral instructions to employees and instruct affected employees to bring the English copy of the letter to the SSA. The Employer must allow employees to contest the finding, and not take adverse action against employees if they choose to contest the finding, while their case is still pending. 2. The Employer agrees to obtain the employee's response about whether he or she will contest the tentative nonconfirmation as soon as possible after the Employer receives the tentative nonconfirmation. Only the employee may determine whether he or she will contest the tentative nonconfirmation. 3. After a tentative nonconfirmation, the Employer will refer employees to SSA field offices only as directed by E-Verify. The Employer must record the case verification number, review the employee information submitted to E-Verify to identify any errors, and find out whether the employee contests the tentative nonconfirmation. The Employer will transmit the Social Security number, or any other corrected employee information that SSA requests, to SSA for verification again if this review indicates a need to do so. 4. The Employer will instruct the employee to visit an SSA office within eight Federal Government work days. SSA will electronically transmit the result of the referral to the Employer within 10 Federal Government work days of the referral unless it determines that more than 10 days is necessary. 5. While waiting for case results, the Employer agrees to check the E-Verify system regularly for case updates. 6. The Employer agrees not to ask the employee to obtain a printout from the Social Security Administration number database (the Numident) or other written verification of the SSN from the SSA. B. REFERRAL TO DHS 1. If the Employer receives a tentative nonconfirmation issued by DHS, the Employer must promptly notify employees in private of the finding and provide them with the notice and letter containing information specific to the employee's E-Verify case. The Employer also agrees to provide both the English and the translated notice and letter for employees with limited English proficiency to employees. The Employer must allow employees to contest the finding, and not take adverse action against employees if they choose to contest the finding, while their case is still pending. 2. The Employer agrees to obtain the employee's response about whether he or she will contest the tentative nonconfirmation as soon as possible after the Employer receives the tentative nonconfirmation. Only the employee may determine whether he or she will contest the tentative nonconfirmation. 3. The Employer agrees to refer individuals to DHS only when the employee chooses to contest a tentative nonconfirmation. 4. If the employee contests a tentative nonconfirmation issued by DHS, the Employer will instruct the Page 9 of 17 E-Verify MOU for Employers I Revision Date 06/01/13 � sect v- orE-Verif Company ID Number: 1431834 employee to contact DHS through its toll -free hotline (as found on the referral letter) within eight Federal Government work days. 5. If the Employer finds a photo mismatch, the Employer must provide the photo mismatch tentative nonconfirmation notice and follow the instructions outlined in paragraph 1 of this section for tentative nonconfirmations, generally. 6. The Employer agrees that if an employee contests a tentative nonconfirmation based upon a photo mismatch, the Employer will send a copy of the employee's Form 1-551, Form 1-766, U.S. Passport, or passport card to DHS for review by: a. Scanning and uploading the document, or b. Sending a photocopy of the document by express mail (furnished and paid for by the employer). 7. The Employer understands that if it cannot determine whether there is a photo match/mismatch, the Employer must forward the employee's documentation to DHS as described in the preceding paragraph. The Employer agrees to resolve the case as specified by the DHS representative who will determine the photo match or mismatch. 8. DHS will electronically transmit the result of the referral to the Employer within 10 Federal Government work days of the referral unless it determines that more than 10 days is necessary. 9. While waiting for case results, the Employer agrees to check the E-Verify system regularly for case updates. ARTICLE IV SERVICE PROVISIONS A. NO SERVICE FEES 1. SSA and DHS will not charge the Employer for verification services performed under this MOU. The Employer is responsible for providing equipment needed to make inquiries. To access E-Verify, an Employer will need a personal computer with Internet access. ARTICLE V MODIFICATION AND TERMINATION A. MODIFICATION 1. This MOU is effective upon the signature of all parties and shall continue in effect for as long as the SSA and DHS operates the E-Verify program unless modified in writing by the mutual consent of all parties. 2. Any and all E-Verify system enhancements by DHS or SSA, including but not limited to E-Verify checking against additional data sources and instituting new verification policies or procedures, will be covered under this MOU and will not cause the need for a supplemental MOU that outlines these changes. Page 10 of 17 E-Verify MOU for Employers I Revision Date 06/01/13 � sect v- orE-Verif Company ID Number: 1431834 B. TERMINATION 1. The Employer may terminate this MOU and its participation in E-Verify at any time upon 30 days prior written notice to the other parties. 2. Notwithstanding Article V, part A of this MOU, DHS may terminate this MOU, and thereby the Employer's participation in E-Verify, with or without notice at any time if deemed necessary because of the requirements of law or policy, or upon a determination by SSA or DHS that there has been a breach of system integrity or security by the Employer, or a failure on the part of the Employer to comply with established E-Verify procedures and/or legal requirements. The Employer understands that if it is a Federal contractor, termination of this MOU by any party for any reason may negatively affect the performance of its contractual responsibilities. Similarly, the Employer understands that if it is in a state where E-Verify is mandatory, termination of this by any party MOU may negatively affect the Employer's business. 3. An Employer that is a Federal contractor may terminate this MOU when the Federal contract that requires its participation in E-Verify is terminated or completed. In such cases, the Federal contractor must provide written notice to DHS. If an Employer that is a Federal contractor fails to provide such notice, then that Employer will remain an E-Verify participant, will remain bound by the terms of this MOU that apply to non -Federal contractor participants, and will be required to use the E-Verify procedures to verify the employment eligibility of all newly hired employees. 4. The Employer agrees that E-Verify is not liable for any losses, financial or otherwise, if the Employer is terminated from E-Verify. ARTICLE VI PARTIES A. Some or all SSA and DHS responsibilities under this MOU may be performed by contractor(s), and SSA and DHS may adjust verification responsibilities between each other as necessary. By separate agreement with DHS, SSA has agreed to perform its responsibilities as described in this MOU. B. Nothing in this MOU is intended, or should be construed, to create any right or benefit, substantive or procedural, enforceable at law by any third party against the United States, its agencies, officers, or employees, or against the Employer, its agents, officers, or employees. C. The Employer may not assign, directly or indirectly, whether by operation of law, change of control or merger, all or any part of its rights or obligations under this MOU without the prior written consent of DHS, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Any attempt to sublicense, assign, or transfer any of the rights, duties, or obligations herein is void. D. Each party shall be solely responsible for defending any claim or action against it arising out of or related to E-Verify or this MOU, whether civil or criminal, and for any liability wherefrom, including (but not limited to) any dispute between the Employer and any other person or entity regarding the applicability of Section 403(d) of IIRIRA to any action taken or allegedly taken by the Employer. E. The Employer understands that its participation in E-Verify is not confidential information and may be disclosed as authorized or required by law and DHS or SSA policy, including but not limited to, Page 11 of 17 E-Verify MOU for Employers i Revision Date 06/01/13 E-Verifv- Company ID Number: 1431834 Congressional oversight, E-Verify publicity and media inquiries, determinations of compliance with Federal contractual requirements, and responses to inquiries under the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA). F. The individuals whose signatures appear below represent that they are authorized to enter into this MOU on behalf of the Employer and DHS respectively. The Employer understands that any inaccurate statement, representation, data or other information provided to DHS may subject the Employer, its subcontractors, its employees, or its representatives to: (1) prosecution for false statements pursuant to 18 U.S.C. 1001 and/or; (2) immediate termination of its MOU and/or; (3) possible debarment or suspension. G. The foregoing constitutes the full agreement on this subject between DHS and the Employer.

The Consultant, at a minimum, must achieve the requirements of the Specifications or Scope of Work stated. BACKGROUND The Florida Division of Emergency Management (FDEM) has awarded funding under the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) Hazard Mitigation Grant Program (HMGP) for the partial design of the Goodlette Road Ditch Improvement Project. The HMGP funds are provided by FEMA to help implement hazard mitigation measures following a major disaster. Hazard mitigation measures are any sustainable action taken to reduce or eliminate long-term risk of damage to properties from future disasters. Proposed improvements will help alleviate flooding within the Gordon River Basin. All work performed under the resultant contract is to be in strict conformance with FEMA Guidelines. The selected firm will be fully responsible to comply with all of the grant requirements. The grant only covers a portion of design and construction for this overall project (as identified here within). Proposers with experience with HMGP or FEMA funded projects requiring a Benefit Cost Analysis (BCA) are preferred. It is imperative that the prospective design consultants become familiar with the details of the grant award and the associated required BCA deliverables, as further outlined in the Scope of Work. These Goodlette Road Ditch Improvements are required to enhance the conveyance capacity of stormwater flow through the Gordon River Basin to the receiving waters of Naples Bay reducing flooding in residential and commercial developments in the basin. The project shall be designed to provide an adequate flood protection level of service for this area against a twenty-five (25) year, three (3) day storm event. All work under the resultant contract shall be completed in strict compliance with Federal, State and Local applicable rules and regulations. This project consists of improving the capacity for surface water flow within an existing approximately two (2) mile -long ditch located on the west side of Goodlette Road from Golden Gate Parkway heading north to just south of Pine Ridge Road, excluding the Goodlette Road Pilot Project area (refer to the attached project location map). The Goodlette Road Ditch Improvement project is one of eight (8) projects identified in the Gordon River Improvements Master Plan dated December 2018 produced by Agnoli, Barber and Brundage, Inc. (also see attached Exhibits). The plan includes conceptual design details of the proposed improvements for this project, as well as for seven (7) others. The plan also includes and is supported by detailed Gordon River Basin Hydrologic and Hydraulic (H&H) modeling. The Goodlette Road Ditch is the primary collector and conveyance facility for stormwater runoff generated from the western portion of the Gordon River Basin. Improvements to the ditch and the existing roadway crossing connections will decrease the peak stages (water levels) observed in the ditch during the 2017 rainy season. The masterplan divided up the Gordon River Basin water management features into eleven (11) segments, Sections A through K, based on the completed H & H modeling effort. The limits of this project are covered by Section I south of Pine Ridge Road, all of Section J and the northern part of Section K. c 0 M 2 0 ti v ti N m E s c� Q Packet Pg. 485 There are eight (8) existing street crossings and one FPL maintenance crossing adjacent to the Naples High School within t 16.A.17.d of this project. Section I, the northern most section includes crossings, from north to south, at Pompei Lane, Granada Blvd. and Solana Road. Based on the master plan none of these crossings need to be upgraded. In the middle section, Section J, the crossings at Ohio Drive and Ridge Street have already been upgraded as part of Phase 1 of the joint County -City West Goodlette Area Improvement Project. The upgrade of the crossing at Creech Road will be included in Phase 2 of that same project. The three (3) remaining crossings will need to be upgraded as part of this project. They are the crossing at 26th Avenue NW in the southernmost part of Section J, 22nd Avenue N on the north part of Section K and the FPL maintenance crossing adjacent to the Naples High School in Section K. The subject ditch's east side slope along the entire length of the project was improved several years ago with a fabric -formed armoring system. The master plan conceptual design has determined that this side of the ditch will be impacted by the improvement due to the proposed enlarged cross section beginning at approximately the intersection with Ohio Drive south to Golden Gate Parkway. The ditch's entire west side slope needs to be reconstructed as well to include surface erosion protection, secondary reinforcement and compaction preventing surficial sloughing. Various structural slope treatments will need to be considered. Available space is limited. The finished slope will be steep. The western slope is highly visible from the roadway. The aesthetic value of all slope treatments considered on this side of the ditch will be emphasized. The eastern ditch slope is not visible from Goodlette Road. Aesthetic value of this slope treatment will be deemphasized. Vertical concrete retaining walls will not be considered for either side of the ditch. The proposed improved ditch cross section varies. The existing section varies from approximately 25-30 feet wide from top of bank to top of bank, has a five to six foot (5'-6') wide bottom width, and is five to six feet (5'-6') deep. The ditch bottom is not uniform, particularly from Ohio Drive south. Ditch improvements will include a new ditch bottom flow line profile. In addition to aesthetic value, ease of maintenance and/or minimal to no maintenance needs will be major considerations in selecting the west bank slope face stabilization system. Due to the limited width of the overbank area on the west side of the ditch, approximately six (6) feet, anticipated maintenance operations, maintenance equipment needs, size and points of access, are to play a major factor in this design. The ditches' overbank area to the west right of way line is currently very difficult to maintain and is a source of debris adding to the ditch's maintenance burden. This project design will include a final engineered cross section with slope/bank stabilization which will require minimal to no perpetual maintenance with high aesthetic value (west side). A buffer or border feature addressing edge delineation and treatment will be considered as part of this project. The design of this feature will consider long term perpetual access and maintenance needs. Areas will be identified where root barrier will be needed due to presence of adjacent vegetation and concerns of potential slope impacts from roots. The design will include an analysis to allow/create a continuous maintenance access/inspection area along the west side overbank area with access at each cross street. There is an existing underground stormwater collection pipe running parallel and adjacent to the existing ditch along the east bank. This pipe will constrain the design of the proposed enlarged ditch cross section and will need to be considered in the design. TERM OF CONTRACT County reserves the right to modify this scope during negotiations for budgetary reasons. The contract term, if an award is made, will commence on the date of the Notice to Proceed and end upon acceptance and approval of the final payment. Prices shall remain firm for the term of the awarded contract. Surcharges will not be accepted in conjunction with this award, and such charges should be incorporated into the pricing structure. DETAILED SCOPE OF WORK We are requesting proposals for design, permitting and construction bid documents for improvements to approximately 2.0 miles of existing ditch located on the west side of Goodlette Road from Golden Gate Parkway heading north to just south of Pine Ridge Road — excluding the Goodlette Frank Ditch Pilot Project area. Elements of work shall include drainage structures, geotechnical investigation, survey, drainage, signing and pavement markings, utility relocation, maintenance of traffic, cost estimates, environmental permits, and all necessary incidental items for a complete project. Design Services shall include a review of both the Hazard Mitigation Grant Program Grant Agreement and the Gordon River Master Plan recommendation for the Goodlette Road Ditch Improvements. Due to grant funding, time is of the essence for completion of the work performed pursuant to the resultant contract. All work performed shall be in strict conformance with FEMA Guidelines and in compliance with all grant requirements. c 0 M 2 0 ti 00 ti N c 0 E z c� Q Packet Pg. 486 Task A. Survey — 16.A.17.d Survey as extensive as needed for a complete overbank area and slope construction/stabilization design, ditch bottom regrading and roadway crossing pipe upsizing. Detailed data may be necessary such as: a. Right-of-way line location b. Above ground objects, i.e. utilities, vegetation, fences, etc. c. Underground utilities d. Width of ditch, overbank area, toe of slope etc. e. Cross sections every 100' and where changes in existing conditions dictate. The horizontal datum shall be NAD83, and the vertical datum shall be NAVD88. Task B. Geotechnical Assessment Perform Geotechnical investigation site work sufficient with which to base the design of the ditch improvements. A Geotechnical Report is to be submitted, with necessary information about subsurface conditions which can include, but not be limited to the information published by United States Geological Survey (USGS), and United States Department of Agriculture (USDA)/Natural Resources Conservation Service (MRCS). The soils encountered should be classified according to the Unified Soil Classification System (USCS). Task C. Design, Permitting, Opinion of Probable Cost, and Construction Bid Documents The slope treatment must be a structural product due to the steepness. The slope must remain steep to maximize ditch conveyance capacity and bottom width. The Gordon River Improvements Master Plan identifies the need to widen the ditch between 22nd Avenue and Coastland Center Mall to maintain consistency and positive drainage downstream. (Exhibit 14, Section 5-A) The slope stabilization product must be aesthetically pleasing because, unlike the ditch's east slope, the west slop will be highly visible. It must be very low maintenance. There are several outfalls that need to be evaluated for modification and treatments, such as headwalls or mitered ends to accommodate maintenance access. The design shall consider the steepness of the slope. Plan and profile design sheets with baseline stationing and current aerial photo overlay. 4. Once an acceptable slope stabilization product has been selected, prepare design drawings, submit and acquire all necessary irS permits, and prepare construction bid documents. The selected firm should also include enough budget for the design engineer to provide oversight during construction including, shop drawing review and approval, observation with weekly c report/progress photos, contractor invoice review and approval, answering inquiries, completion certification and record drawings. U 5. A copy of all environmental permits or applications shall be provided to the County and any conditions for compliance shall V) be included in the final design plans, narrative, and project implementation actions. 00 ti 6. A regular and long-term maintenance plan for the ditch slope treatments and the boarder feature. N 7. The final design needs to be based on the appropriate sections of the Gordon River Improvements Master Plan dated December 2018 produced by Agnoli, Barber and Brundage, Inc. E z Task D. Hydrologic and Hydraulic (H&H) Study (Benefit -Cost Analysis) — Demonstrating proj ect's mitigation against future flood loss (Hazard Mitigation Grant Program Grant Requirement) Q Under the FEMA's HMGP grants funding guidelines, the funds for construction of the project will be approved only if the applicant can demonstrate that designed features of the project can achieve a desirable Benefit/Cost ratio. Using the information from Hydrologic -Hydraulic simulations generated as part of this task for the existing watershed conditions, and of the project with recommended design features (improved channel, culvert upgrades, etc.), generate tabular data on the benefits, in terms of the reduction of flood stages and durations to be achieved by the building structures and roads in the area affected by the project. The analysis shall be performed for reduction of depths and durations under three storms (10-, 25- and 100-year frequency storms of 3-day duration) in accordance with the FEMA guidelines using the generic depth - damage functions methodology of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers for building structures and contents, and the estimated cost indices for road damage repair from the Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) cost or any other credible source Packet Pg. 487 for road damage repair cost estimates (support documentation will be required). Modeling is required for this Ben 16.A.17.d Analysis to determine what improvement will result from building the project (post project lift). The pre -project (existing condition) will also need to be modeled to show what houses and roadways were flooded during Hurricane IRMA. The information will be provided to FDEM, and the CONSULTANT shall be required to be available for response to any additional requests for information that may be requested by the FDEM staff. Please see attached FEMA Hydrologic and Hydraulic (H&H) Study Quick Guide for reference, which outlines the below minimum requirements: a. Identification of upstream and downstream impacts (i.e. stage, velocity, duration) of alterations to the floodplain including change to the extent or depth of the Special Flood Hazard Area (SFHA) or changes to the Base Flood Elevation (BFE) b. General site description, including location, latitude and longitude, drainage basin, FIRM, regulatory mapped flood zone c. Existing condition: pipe shape, material, length, inlet and outlet conditions, performance level d. Proposed condition: pipe shape, size, material, length, inlet and outlet conditions, performance level e. Identify whether the proposed condition satisfies the local floodplain ordinance and local and state storm water management requirements f. The study shall be stamped by a professional engineer in the State of Florida and certification that the calculations and drawings comply with 44 CFR 60.3. Task E. Post -Design Services The CONSULTANT will serve as the Engineer -of Record for the project and be available to assist the COUNTY through the construction bidding period, when tasks such as clarifications regarding plans and specifications are needed, or to provide input/approval on contractor selection. The entire Bidding Process typically takes three to five months in Collier County; as it begins with preparation of the entire bid package and continues through to the Board of County Commissioners meeting at which the lowest qualified bidder is awarded the contract. Services include writing a bid award recommendation letter and checking and documenting all the contractor/subcontractor references provided by the selected bidder. CEI services will occur under a separate contract. Task F. Public Input, Meetings and Presentations Collier County desires a significant effort to communicate and coordinate with affected property owners, as improvement concepts are developed and approved. The CONSULTANT will provide technical staff representation at an anticipated four (4) (public) a meetings. The CONSULTANT will coordinate, notice, and manage this effort with input from County staff. -W M DELIVERABLES: 2 0 All drawings will meet the statutory requirements for plans filed for public record. 00 ti 1.
