Additional Comments: The appropriation for design services is $8,000,000 below the proposed funding presented in the
CIP Budget Supplement primarily due to construction not beginning as early as budgeted on the Engelholm & Park
Storage Facility (12841), the U-City Storage Facility (11992), the Baden City Shed (13232) project, the Vance Road Pump
Station (P-472) (12490), the Ferguson Storage Facility, Deer Creek Sanitary Tunnel (Clayton Rd To RDP) Pump Station

the Coldwater Upstream Pump Station (12126) project was removed from the scope of this project and additional savings
were realized by not utilizing as much supplemental inspection staffing as originally budgeted.
This funding will provide construction management services during construction for the Gravois Trunk Storage Facility
(12569), the U-City Storage Facility (11992), the Bissell Point WWTF Redundant Sludge Acceptance (12828), the Harlem
Cityshed Mitigation Basins (Ashland & Essex) (12942), and the Engelholm & Park Storage Facility (12841) projects; and

This ordinance authorizes the District to enter into Contract #21868 with Vieux and Associates, Inc. This contract allows
the District to continue maintaining the integration between the existing rain gauge network and NEXRAD radar data in an
effort that produces Gauge Adjusted Radar Rainfall (GARR) data for use by District engineers, various planning and
design consultants, and Operations divisions. This contract provides web-accessible rainfall data to District personnel,
monthly archive quality rainfall data, major rainfall event support, enhancement of web -based tools, and support for the
District’s hydraulic models, as well as any training required. Vieux and Associates also provides QA/QC of our extensive
fixed rain gauge network and notifies the District of issues found during the GARR calibration process. As part of this
contract, Vieux continuously evaluates our tel emetry system and rain gauge network. Radar rainfall data is a technology
used for hydraulic modeling and calibration, confirming sewer flow metering responses to rain events, inflow/infiltration
assessments, CSO and SSO control planning, and preliminary and final designs. This technology allows the District to
estimate more accurately the amount of rain that falls within District boundaries that is not detected at rain gauge sites by
essentially increasing the number of locations where a rainfall measure ment is available from approximately 100 to over
2,000 data points. Planning utilizes GARR data to determine the return period of rainfall events as they relate to
overcharged main (OCM) customer calls. T his contract for Radar Rainfall Data is for $130,000. This contract is
renewable for up to four (4) additional years based on performance.
