Exhibit A
Scope of Work
City of Pueblo
Fountain Creek Sedload /Sediment
Collection and Removal Demonstration
Proiect Description
The City of Pueblo will be requesting proposals from prequalified contractors to provide
engineering and construction services for a bedload /sediment collection and removal
demonstration project on Fountain Creek within the City of Pueblo, Colorado (the
project) The purpose of this project is to complete planning, design, construction and
provide program management services for permitting, bidding and installation of a
bedload /sediment collection and removal technology to demonstrate potential benefits to
Fountain Creek.
This is the second phase of a project to evaluate the success of a bed load sediment
collector and removal system placed in Fountain Creek approximately '/s -mile upstream
of the confluence with the Arkansas River This project will involve the placement of a
proprietary Streamside Systems® pre -cast concrete sediment collector within Fountain
Creek. The sediment collector will serve as a research tool to gage the transport rates of
sediment captured by a large -scale collector, and to verify the system's ability to remove
and classify sediment for beneficial re -use.
The project will study the benefits a bed load sediment collector system to selectively
remove problem sediments and evaluate changes in stream morphology, channel
reestablishment, and water quality improvement. The project will assess any changes in
the water quality and any reductions in downstream sediment deposition, as well as the
creek's ability to manage high -flow conditions (flood control). The project includes
monitoring to assess the success of the project in relationship to the removal of
contaminants from Fountain Creek, impacts to sediment, and potential benefits in
reduction of erosion and the re- establishment of a deeper, more stable thalweg within the
creek's main channel. This project will serve as a demonstration project to determine if
improvements to the main channel can provide for the more efficient transport of return
flows into the Arkansas River and improve and sustain existing wetland communities.
Proiect Tasks
Task 1 — Design & Permitting. Complete design, specifications, and permitting for construction
of the bedload sediment removal and collection system demonstration project area.
rev 5/13/2010 Page 1 of 3
Task 2 — Construction Construct project site access and utilities Install and operate the
bedload sediment removal and collection system.
Task 3 — Monitoring & Analysis: Test, analyze, and characterize sediments removed to
determine transport rates and types and amounts of pollutants removed from Fountain Creek.
Monitor any reduction in bedload sediments and water quality benefits. Analyze improvements
to stream morphology and channel formation and associated transport of return flows and
enhancement of existing wetland communities.
Task 4 — Project Administration. Complete administrative reports and requirements of grant
agreement including timely and accurate progress reports, final reports, and reimbursement
requests

PROJECT MILESTONES.
The project milestones include the completion of the design and specifications, construction of
the project, ongoing water quality and sediment monitoring during the project, and completion of
the grant progress reports, reimbursement requests and final grant closeout. The water and
sediment monitoring will be completed on an ongoing basis over an eighteen month period with
an annual report comparing the results of the testing. The administration of the grant and
submittal of reports will be completed throughout the project with progress reports submitted
quarterly, reimbursement requests submitted per the terms of the grant agreement, and a final
report submitted at the completion of the project.
PAYMENT
Payment will be made based on actual expenditures and invoicing by the water activity sponsor
The request for payment must include a description of the work accomplished by major task, and
estimate of the percent completion for individual tasks and the entire water activity in relation to
the percentage of budget spent, identification of any major issues and proposed or implemented
corrective actions. The last 5 percent of the entire water activity budget will be withheld until
final project/water activity documentation is completed
All products, data and information developed as a result of this grant must be provided to CWCB
in hard copy and electronic format as part of the project documentation
