The work to be done consists of a voluntary buyout/acquisition of a portion of one (1) property in the 5000 block of West
Florissant, in the City of St. Louis, to allow the removal of improvements in this area that is prone to flooding due to
inadequate drainage. The cost associated with relieving the drainage issues outweighed the estimated cost to remove all
the improvements. The effort will include the demolition of any remaining structures and securing the site. Since this is a
voluntary buyout, the owner will be given compensation for the value of their property and the expenses related to the
transaction, but will not be given additional compensation for replacement structures under the Code of Federal Regulations
Uniform Relocations and Real Property Assistance Act (49CFR Part 24, amended). A real property acquisition consultant
will perform all negotiations and management of the property acquisition from the first contact with the owners through the
closing. The District will contract for the demolition, asbestos removal, and final restoration of the site and structures under
separate contracts through the Purchasing Division. All of these activities will be funded from this appropriation.

This ordinance appropriates additional funds and authorizes the District to enter into Amendment No. 6 to Contract #10402
with RJN Group, Inc. This is the final funding for this contact. This appropriation will allow RJN Group, Inc. to complete
investigations of sewer systems to identify inflow/infiltration (I/I) problems and to assess the condition of critical infrastructure.
With the FY2013 appropriation, RJN will complete the following tasks and investigations with the guidance of the SSO
watershed teams, the CSO LTCP team, and the City sewershed team:
Smoke test and evaluate approximately 20 miles of sewers
Inspect and evaluate approximately 1,000 manholes
It is anticipated that over 500 connections to the system will be investigated
Inspect and evaluate 1,000 critical infrastructure sewer reaches
Review flow meter data for quantifying wet weather flows
Prepare initial findings and final I/I study reports for 50 areas of completed fieldwork for use by MSD staff, SSO
Watershed Teams, CSO LTCP Team, Operations and design consultants
Provide field investigations for Salisbury, Barton, Trudeau, Prairie, Utah, Fillmore, Gimblin, Humbolt, Carroll, Rock
Springs, Miller, Downtown (Elm), 7th Street, and Mill Creek City sewersheds
Conduct post-construction studies in rehabilitation and I/I project areas
Train MSD employees to collect and process I/I data
Maintain and update the District-wide I/I database
22 of 6/14/12
Prepare a final report summarizing the entire project
Provide support/data for Consent Decree reporting
Collaborate with watershed consultants to transfer and interpret I/I data
The consultant will use the data from the above efforts to identify, quantify, and recommend initial improvements or
rehabilitation solutions to eliminate or reduce I/I entering into the sewer system. In addition to I/I data deliverables, the
consultant will develop GIS based project deliverables in association with District staff. Consultant will provide assistance to
the SSO watershed teams and the CSO LTCP team, District staff design projects, contracted consultant design projects, and
other District Departments as needed. This contract was solicited assuming work would proceed for four years through
FY2011 with an option for two additional years through FY2013 to complete the work necessary for watershed and SSO
planning. This amendment is the exercise of the second and final year option in the amount of $3,200,000, which is a
decrease in funding of $800,000 from Year 5 (FY2012). It is anticipated that in FY2013, MSD will complete the transition of
I/I investigation efforts from contracted to internal resources.
FUNDING/COST SUMMARY:
Budgeted: Capital Improvement Program Budget Year: FY2013, Pg. 15 Amount: $3,200,000
Fund Name: #1101 – General Fund
Additional Comments: I/I investigations in the Combined Sewer Area began in FY2004 for known wet weather problem
areas. In FY2005, I/I basins (study areas) were delineated and prioritized for the entire District outside of St. Louis City. The
priorities are reviewed annually by the watershed teams to support CIRP projects, and the SSO/CSO planning efforts. The
contracted I/I efforts provide a basis for planning, design, and construction that will occur for many years. The I/I consultant
will work in concert with the District’s staff, planning consultant, other I/I consultant, and specialized service vendors to
accomplish project goals of substantial I/I reduction. In addition, the consultant will conduct field investigations in the
Salisbury, Prairie, Carroll, Rock Springs, Miller, Downtown (Elm), 7th Street, and Mill Creek city sewersheds to support
Cityshed planning.
Over the last eight years, RJN has smoke tested 1,620 miles of sewer and inspected 48,000 manholes. Approximately 601
million gallons per day of I/I flow has been estimated from public and private defects. For FY2012, RJN completed smoke
testing of 189 miles of sanitary sewer, inspected 1,722 manholes, assessed 2,700 connections, and completed 37 reports.
The FY2013 authorization includes $500,000 (the same as FY2012 funding) for the investigation of critical sewers to
proactively address potential sewer collapse in locations of high risk. Based on the City sewershed team’s
recommendations, critical sewers include large diameter and brick sewers crossing major roadways and railroad right-of-
ways, and sewers affecting other critical infrastructure such as public venues, hospitals, and firehouses. The approach will
be to assess their condition through manhole and sewer CCTV inspections, then use the information to plan rehabilitation as
needed and establish a long-term re-inspection program.
Contracted planning resources utilized: Watershed Facility Planning, Combine Sewer Area Flow Metering & Monitoring,
Separate Sewer Area Flow Metering & Monitoring, Modeling, CCTV Inspection, Radar Rainfall Data, and General Services
Surveying.

This ordinance appropriates additional funds and authorizes the District to enter into Amendment No. 6 to Contract #10403
with Woolpert Consultants, Inc. This is the final funding for this contract. This appropriation will allow Woolpert to complete
investigations of sewer systems to identify inflow/infiltration (I/I) problems. With the FY2013 appropriation, Woolpert will
complete the following tasks and investigations under the guidance of the SSO watershed teams:
Conduct post-rehabilitation and I/I reduction assessments in two areas of constructed I/I reduction projects
Prepare initial findings and final I/I study reports for 28 areas of completed fieldwork for use by MSD staff, SSO
Watershed Teams, Operations and design consultants.
Prepare 150 geodatabase conversions for 2003 to 2008 data to incorporate in the District-wide I/I database

projects, and other District Departments as needed. This contract was solicited assuming work would proceed for four years
through FY2011 with an option for two additional years through FY2013 to complete the work necessary for watershed and
SSO planning. This amendment is the exercise of the second and final year option in the amount of $1,200,000, which is a
decrease in funding of $300,000 from Year 5 (FY2012). It is anticipated that in FY2013, MSD will complete the transition of

FUNDING/COST SUMMARY:
Budgeted: Capital Improvement Program Budget Year: FY2013, Pg. 66 Amount: $1,200,000
Fund Name: #1101 – General Fund
Additional Comments: I/I investigations in the Separate Sewer Area began in FY2004 for known wet weather problem
areas. In FY2005, I/I basins (study areas) were delineated and prioritized for the entire District outside of St. Louis City. The
priorities are reviewed annually by the watershed teams to support CIRP projects and the SSO/CSO planning efforts. The
contracted I/I efforts provide a basis for planning, design, and construction that will occur for many years. The I/I consultant
will work in concert with the District’s staff, planning consultant, watershed consultants, other consultants, and specialized
service vendors to accomplish project goals of substantial I/I reduction.
Over the last eight years, Woolpert has smoke tested 1,984 miles of sanitary sewer and inspected 61,817 manholes.
Approximately 182 million gallons per day of I/I flow have been estimated from public and private defects. For FY2012,
Woolpert completed smoke testing of 81 miles of sewer, inspected 3,560 manholes, and completed 11 final reports. Since
FY2013 is the final project year, Woolpert will prepare a final report summarizing their activities and results for the project
since FY2008. Field activities will be limited to post-construction investigations and follow-up verifications derived from
reporting.
Contracted planning resources utilized: Watershed Facility Planning, Separate Sewer Area Flow Metering & Monitoring,
Modeling, CCTV Inspection, Radar Rainfall Data, and General Services Surveying.
