From: Tom Osborne [mailto:tom@architecturemetals.com] Sent: Monday, August 27, 2012 9:25 AM 2 To: PughTA@cdmsmith.com Cc: 'Larry Lopololo'; 'Tom Osborne'; 'Janet Tracy' Subject: RE: Floodwall estimate Terry, Thanks for your interest in our Flood mitigation products and our Flood Log system. Per your request, please find enclosed proposals based on your level of protection scenario. Please not that I have not included quotes for removable flood walls for the 270 yr and 500 yr floods. From an engineering perspective it is not suggested that a removable design be used given the water heights projected. It would be more appropriate to use a removable system attached to the top of a concrete stem wall supported by a footer. We don’t recommend a removable system to be over 8 feet in height. So the stem wall would have to be designed to meet that height requirement. The concrete wall would also be designed for the water height against the wall as well as the water pushing against the removable wall attached to the top of the support wall. Please let me know if you need additional assistance. Best Regards, Tom Osborne President Architecture Metals Ltd.

The project that we are seeking costs for includes a couple of road crossings. Additionally the method of achieving flood protection may be a blend of technologies which could reduce the length of removable floodwall required. Please provide estimates for the types of flood protection you would recommend based on height and length. Additionally there are areas along the length which have limited width available for placement of flood protection materials. Below are four scenarios of protection levels that we are seeking cost estimates for, along with any support technology information. (For example: the footer required for a 1 foot flood wall should be less than for the 14 foot flood wall).Approximate flood wall lengths and heights: Description of Level of Protection Scenario Floodwall Height (feet) Floodwall Length (feet) First Significant damage 3 520 1 1730 100‐ Year Level 8 520 6 1730 270‐ Year Level (1993 Flood) 10.5 520 8.5 1730 500‐ Year Level 14 520 12 1730 Sincerely, Terry Pugh, CFM | CDM Smith | 9200 Ward Parkway, Suite 500 Kansas City, MO 64114 | Main: (816) 444‐8270 | Direct: (816) 412‐ 3118 | pughta@cdmsmith.com | cdmsmith.com  Please consider the environment before printing this email. 5500 military Trail, Ste# 22-220, Jupiter, Fl 33458 O (561) 630-0020 FAX (561) 744-2755 www.am20.com 1 Customer:Date: 8/8/2012 Project:Location: Suite 500 Kansas City, MO 64114 We are pleased to provide you with pricing for your project.

Per your request, please find enclosed proposals based on your level of protection scenario. Please not that I have not included quotes for removable flood walls for the 270 yr and 500 yr floods. From an engineering perspective it is not suggested that a removable design be used given the water heights projected. It would be more appropriate to use a removable system attached to the top of a concrete stem wall supported by a footer. We don’t recommend a removable system to be over 8 feet in height. So the stem wall would have to be designed to meet that height requirement. The concrete wall would also be designed for the water height against the wall as well as the water pushing against the removable wall attached to the top of the support wall. Please let me know if you need additional assistance. Best Regards, Tom Osborne President Architecture Metals Ltd.

From: Pugh, Terry [mailto:PughTA@cdmsmith.com] Sent: Friday, August 24, 2012 3:19 PM To: larry@am20.com Subject: Floodwall estimate Larry, Thank you for your time. The project that we are seeking costs for includes a couple of road crossings. Additionally the method of achieving flood protection may be a blend of technologies which could reduce the length of removable floodwall required. Please provide estimates for the types of flood protection you would recommend based on height and length. Additionally there are areas along the length which have limited width available for placement of flood protection materials. Below are four scenarios of protection levels that we are seeking cost estimates for, along with any support technology information. (For example: the footer required for a 1 foot flood wall should be less than for the 14 foot flood wall).Approximate flood wall lengths and heights: Description of Level of Protection Scenario Floodwall Height (feet) Floodwall Length (feet) First Significant damage 3 520 1 1730 100‐ Year Level 8 520 6 1730 270‐ Year Level (1993 Flood) 10.5 520 8.5 1730 500‐ Year Level 14 520 12 1730 Sincerely, Terry Pugh, CFM | CDM Smith | 9200 Ward Parkway, Suite 500 Kansas City, MO 64114 | Main: (816) 444‐8270 | Direct: (816) 412‐ 3118 | pughta@cdmsmith.com | cdmsmith.com  Please consider the environment before printing this email. 5500 military Trail, Ste# 22-220, Jupiter, Fl 33458 O (561) 630-0020 FAX (561) 744-2755 www.am20.com 1 Customer:Date: 8/8/2012 Project:Location: Suite 500 Kansas City, MO 64114 We are pleased to provide you with pricing for your project.

Now these estimates should be understood as “estimates only” as they do not include the engineering work nor any dry side drainage collection and pump station work. Here are some examples close to your indicated needs: Knee Wall and Foundation to be topped by 5 foot EKO removable barrier—total height 8 feet $ 225 per lineal foot Knee Wall and Foundation to topped by 7.5 foot EKO removable barrier—total height 10.5 feet $ 285 per lineal foot Knee Wall and Foundation to be topped by 11 foot EKO removable barrier—total height 14 feet $ 420 per lineal foot Knee Wall and Foundation to be topped by 9 foot EKO removable barrier ‐‐‐total height 12 feet $415 per lineal foot The EKO components are included in our per square foot estimates for the various wall heights which we supplied a few days ago. While these are not exact matches to your table , they are close. And they would meet all FEMA, BUREC and CORPS standards as well as those of FM Global—the casualty insurance rating firm.

This project does have a couple of roads that it crosses and may end up being a blend of technologies so the length may be less. One possible scenario includes making the taller wall (shorter section) a permanent flood wall, this reduces the length of the overall project for removable floodwall to around 1700 feet in length. The heights with the 1730 length below would remain the same.

You already ’ get it ‘ in that the footer for a one foot wall is less than for a fourteen foot wall. Now,since we are “holding back water”, as the height increases, the subsurface seepage issues become critical—and this depends on the soil conditions as you can imagine. So estimates here are dangerous unless we have soil test data. We also consider blending removable barriers where they make sense with permanent but pleasing concrete walls as illustrated by the Grand Ol Opry photos. There we achieved a balance in appearance to match the brick character of Opryland buildings and walkways. Our openings were used to give all the required easy public access as well as the needed commercial and safety access. FM Global—the casualty insurance rating firm ‐‐ approved the installation, a key requirement of Gaylord Entertainment, the owners and funding source. For your scenarios, you may want to consider our low knee wall (3‐4’ high ) with removable barrier on top to achieve the protection height needed at a lower cost. The knee walls can include “pedestrian or road ground level openings” which can easily be closed with our stop log system. This gives you the first 3‐4 feet of protection needed, then you can add the removable barrier on top to meet the rising flood crest. Now this can be done in stages, for example ,if you need 12 feet, the knee wall gives you the first 3‐or 4 feet. Close the openings. If the crest rises, add your 8 foot posts but for speed just add 4 feet of logs. If the crest continues to rise, add the final four feet. It is a doable flexible system. At Opryland they did a trial with untrained staff/management people and the barriers were up in less than half the calculated time. We can provide crew size and time elements for a wall of x feet high, assuming storage is not miles away from the wall site. This information may help you in your analysis.

Each component has been carefully engineered to be easy to work with, handle and install. All the special tools, rubber mallet, wrenches and, Allen wrenches for cover plates are supplied in a tool box... Since the EKO wall for your installation is less than 7 feet tall, the components are all light enough that what 'heavy lifting and transporting " is needed can be done with an average size forklift. The "spare parts"" needed are supplied and included in the Storage Container. The Storage Container: The storage container is a "customized" standard 20 foot cargo container with a large side opening for easy forklift access, is well ventilated to provide air circulation to reduce interior temperatures. Special racking for the posts and beams is included to make storing easy, to make inventory checks easy and accurate. Everything has a place, clearly marked. Secure exterior locking pads are provided for the installation of whatever security system you prefer. Each Container is clearly marked on the outside indicating the wall sections where the components in the container go. If the storage site is remotely located from the wall alignment, the Container can easily be loaded onto a flatbed trailer and transported to the appropriate location along the wall alignment where it can be opened, the contents removed and positioned along the wall using a forklift. Wall storage Checking the Inventory in the Container. A check of the components in the Container of posts , beams, bolts, tension hold downs for each section against the Recorded Inventory should be done to make sure when you get it all to the wall site for set up all parts are there. This is a double check against the Inventory recorded after the prior event or after a scheduled routine Maintenance review. The Parts Inventory is also part of this recording process. Site Preparations; This is a routine check of making sure access gates are open, walking the alignment and removing any accumulated dirt or residue from the sealing strips and post anchor plates with a pressure washer or broom. The cover plates on the wall end brackets should be removed as well as the post anchor plate cover plates .This can be done with the appropriate size Allen wrench. Transporting The Posts and Beams; Generally, if possible it is advisable to transport the Storage Container to the site on a flatbed trailer. Or transport the posts to the alignment on a forklift. Take the posts first. Doing so will let you have two men immediately begin erecting the posts. Putting the Posts up. The posts are not too heavy for two men to tilt up into position on the post anchor plate assuming the final design uses a 6 foot post. If higher three men will be needed to position a post .When they have tilted it up, one man can kneel down and rotate the anchor bolt about 90 degrees until the anchor lugs lock into place, then tighten the nuts using the supplied crescent wrench .This team can then move on to the next post and repeat the steps. Securing The Braces , On walls over 6 feet high , back braces are used to provide the needed support for the posts. Two or three men can easily position the brace, tilt it up, and one can then insert the connection pins and secure the pin locking retainers. The men can use a magnetic speed level as a guide while they adjust the screw adjustments assuring a vertical position for the post and assuring the proper loading of the brace support pads. The braces are color coded to the posts to make installation foolproof. Placing the Beams. When a load of beams arrives via the forklift, two men can begin positioning the beams in the retaining brackets in the wall end brackets and posts. Pick up one beam at a time with a man at each end to make positioning easier and faster. The beams are symmetrical and all are of the standard length and weigh about 10 pounds. All the men do is lower the beam with the gasket edge down, into place. Securing The Hold-Down Clamps: When all the beams in a section have been properly placed, a few turns of the hold-down clamp wing nut which is an integral part of the post will provide adequate down pressure to firmly hold the beams in place and provide a watertight seal. This step should be repeated as you go down the length of the wall section by section. And this is the last step in erecting the EKO Removable Barrier Flood Wall. Monitoring The Wall; when all the set up steps have been completed and the water begins to rise, there are no "operational adjustments" that need to be made. There is nothing that needs to be adjusted. All components have been put in place correctly and secured. As with any levee or floodwall installation during a flood event, normal monitoring /observation is recommended. Part Two: Removing the EKO Barrier After the Flood Event Release the Hold-Down Clamps And Remove the Beams. This is the first step in removing the barrier components. Releasing the clamps will allow the workers to remove the beams and place them on the forklift for transport back to the Storage Container. Before placing the beams in their racks in the Storage Container. It is advisable to pressure wash the beams to remove any scum or residue. The beam gaskets should be checked for any signs of damage. Remove The Posts and Braces . Since the bolts are on the wet side of the post/ barrier, it may be necessary to pressure wash the posts while they are standing in order to remove any silt or residue buildup. This will make it easier to remove the anchor bolts. Place the posts on the forklift for transport to the Storage Container and place them in their racks. Inventory The Contents. As the components for each section are returned and placed in the Storage Container an inventory count of beams posts and anchor bolts should be made and recorded on the Inventory Sheet. Any discrepancies should be noted, the sheet signed and dated. Any parts that appear to be damaged should be noted and replaced in the Storage Container from the Spare Parts supply and replacements ordered immediately from EKO to maintain the proper Spare Parts inventory. Replace The End Bracket and Post Anchor Cover Plates. This is the final step in securing the wall installation for the next event. Simply screw them in place securely using the Allen wrench. Maintenance. A routine "maintenance" schedule can be established on an annual or semi-annual basis. These activities include checking the inventory counts of components for each section in each Storage Container, visually inspecting the gaskets and noting any need for replacement which can then be scheduled. Gasket replacement is easily done. There are no adhesives, just use soapy water to make it easy to slip off the old gasket and slide, press on the new .Trim to length. This procedure is the same for the posts and for the end brackets. All use the same gasket. Examine the posts to make sure all the hold-down wing nuts are in place and visually inspect the sealing strip which is the same material as the beam gaskets and can be replaced in the same manner if necessary. On site maintenance consists of removing the end bracket cover plates, removing any residue and visually inspecting the gaskets which are of the same material as the posts and beams and can easily be replaced if necessary in the same manner.

WIPP SYSTEM FEATURES AND BENEFITS PATENTED BAFFLE SYSTEM: The WIPP System utilizes a patented fixed internal baffle system which insures a safe and stable system. When the WIPP System is exposed to uneven hydrostatic pressure, the internal baffle system locks into place. The WIPP Systems’ system guarantees stability & safety. USER FRIENDLY: WIPP Systems have a unique lifting loop on each end to facilitate installation and removal. This allows for minimal manual labor during the installation & removal process. ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY: WIPP Systems are installed using any available water source, fire hydrants, river water, ocean water or even a garden hose on the smaller size units. With WIPP there is minimal adverse impact to the environment. Post job restoration is not needed using WIPP Systems. Simply drain and roll up the WIPP barriers for storage and future use. LARGE SCALE JOBS: Multiple WIPP Systems can be connected together to cover large areas. The WIPP Systems are connected to one another by u tilizing a simple overlapping procedure that requires no additional time during the installation and WIPP units of varying sizes can be connected to each other. SAVE TIME AND MONEY: WIPP Systems install in less time than using sand bags with just a few people and a pump source. Larger WIPP units may need to be carried with fork lifts or pallet jacks. Several hundred feet of WIPP flood barriers can be installed in just one day with a team of 4-6 people, 2 pump hoses and 1 forklift. Smaller WIPP units can be installed with 1 -2 people and a garden hose. DURABILITY: WIPP Systems are made with a scrim reinforced PVC material and industrial grade fittings and intended to be reused numerous times. The WIPP System system is infield repairable in wet or dry conditions utilizing a repair kit which is provided with each order.

A WIPP™ is a single tube device which utilizes a patented inner restraint baffle/diaphragm stabilization system. 1.2 Specification A water-inflated temporary barrier shall consist of the following: 1) The water inflated barrier will consist of a self contained, single tube with an inner restraint baffle(s)/diaphragm(s) stabilization system. The water-inflated barrier must have the ability to stand alone, without any additional external mechanical or gravitational stabilization devices, as a positive water barrier and water management system. 2) The water-inflated barrier shall be produced from heavy gauge polyvinyl chloride (PVC) reinforced with polyester. The PVC fabric used to create the inflatable barrier will be infield repairable utilizing a vinyl adhesive and patch material. 3) The water-inflated barrier must maintain mechanical stability in addition to providing anti rolling when exposed to uneven hydrostatic pressure from either side 4) The self-contained water inflated barrier shall have threaded fill ports and drain ports for rapid inflation and draining. 5) Method for connecting the individual units together will consist of overlapping the end of the units a specific length which will create a watertight connection. No other devices or methods for connecting the barriers are required. 1.3 Barrier size requirements The water-inflated temporary barrier height shall be determined as follows: 1) Static water height conditions shall not exceed 75% of the properly filled height of the barrier. 2) Dynamic water height conditions shall not exceed stated value during hydrodynamic installation procedures (See dynamic installation instructions for complete list of requirements). 3) Installation site criteria are required for assessment of all relevant factors. Excess slope, high water velocities, dynamic loads resulting from wave actions, mounting surface irregularities, and changes in interrelated hydrological conditions can increase the required water inflated barrier height verses retention height requirements. The WIPP System when properly used is a temporary barrier against surface water. Due to the unknown variables involved with the complex task of preventing floodwater from entering a facility, Hydro-Solutions, Inc. accepts not responsibility for floodwater infiltration under or around a properly inflated WIPP System. The WIPP System cannot prevent water from migrating underneath the system via cracks, crevices, pipes, etc., and/or porous soil conditions. Preparations should be made prior to a flood event and the installation of the WIPP System to make sure any area where water can infiltrate is properly sealed.

The project that we are seeking costs for includes a couple of road crossings. Additionally the method of achieving flood protection may be a blend of technologies which could reduce the length of removable floodwall required. Please provide estimates for the types of flood protection you would recommend based on height and length. Additionally there are areas along the length which have limited width (between buildings and other natural and built up areas) available for placement of flood protection materials. Below are four scenarios of protection levels that we are seeking cost estimates for, along with any support technology information. (For example if a footer is needed: the footer required for a 1 foot flood wall should be less than for the 14 foot flood wall). Approximate flood wall lengths and heights: Description of Level of Protection Scenario Floodwall Height (feet) OVERALL Floodwall Length (feet) First Significant damage 3 520 1 1730 100‐ Year Level 8 520 6 1730 270‐ Year Level (1993 Flood) 10.5 520 8.5 1730 500‐ Year Level 14 520 12 1730 The terrain along the placement of the floodwall varies by 2 feet as part of the natural terrain, moderately ‐no extremely steep areas. Slope is based on Lidar information, as this project is in the first stages of research.

ALLOWANCES SHOULD BE MADE FOR THE LOSS IN LENGTH OF THE WIPP™ SYSTEM DUE TO THE OVERLAP CONNECTION. The WIPP™ System when properly used is a temporary barrier against surface water. Due to unknown variables involved with the complex task of preventing floodwaters from entering a facility, Hydro-Solutions, Inc. (HSI) accepts no responsibility for floodwaters infiltrating under or around an installed WIPP™ System. The WIPP™ System cannot prevent water from migrating underneath the system via cracks, crevices, grooves created in the concrete/asphalt surfaces by a broom or raked finish, pipes, etc., and/or porous soil conditions. Preparations should be made prior to the installation of the WIPP™ System to insure that any area where water can infiltrate is properly sealed. These preparations are not guaranteed to completely stop water infiltration but may reduce the amount of seepage under the barrier. A sump area where water can gather and be evacuated during the duration of the flood is required. The size and number of sump areas would depend upon the size of the area being dewatered and the porosity of the soil. DISCLAIMER: The WIPP™ Systems ability to control static water is limited to 75% of the recommended inflated height of the system. It is required that a 25% freeboard or amount of the system above the water level be maintained during all phases of flood protection, i.e. 3ft water level on a 4ft high properly inflated WIPP™ System. In moving water environments, or potentially moving water environments, (HSI) will designate a maximum water percentage height on a given WIPP™ System height. (HSI) is not responsible or liable for any damage or injury, and the WIPP™ System(s) are no longer under any implied or written warranty if the water levels exceed these and other stated limitations. The mandatory 25% freeboard requirement must also be maintained in wave or tidal influence environments. If moving water, wave action, tidal influences, slick soil conditions, and other relevant hydrological conditions are present, additional freeboard requirements may be needed. An additional mechanism or structure may be required to stabilize the WIPP™ System in the event that there is not enough surface friction for the system to become stable. In moving water environments the water current may require diverting, and or the WIPP™ System may require an additional external support structure to maintain stability during and after the installation process. (HSI) is not liable for barrier damage caused by exposure to freezing temperatures boats, birds, animals, vandalism, or other external objects or forces which could damage or destroy the WIPP™ System. The surface area where the WIPP™ System is to be installed must be cleared of all debris that could puncture the WIPP™ System (rocks, rebar, etc.) The buyer is responsible for all damages incurred due to objects damaging the WIPP™ System(s).

PORTADAM, INC. is equipped to provide you with approved technologies, recognized throughout the U.S. as the environmentally-friendly alternative to water diversion & cofferdamming. Builders of cofferdams and diversion structures for over 25 years. 53545-Portadam-Broc.qxd 6/28/05 6:59 AM Page 1 With today’s ever-growing concerns over environmental issues, PORTADAM, Inc., is equipped to provide you with approved technolo- gies, recognized throughout the U.S. as the clean alternative to water diversion and cofferdamming. We view each potential project with a plan to provide clean, feasible, engineered product to assist agencies and contractors in a combined effort to keep our waterways pristine for future generations. We pride ourselves in finding solutions to complex water control problems. The PORTADAM concept utilizes a steel supporting structure with a continuous reinforced vinyl liner membrane to effectively provide a means of water diversion, retention or impoundment. The support structure is designed to transfer hydraulic loading to a near vertical load, thereby creating a free-standing structure with no back brace to interfere with your work area. The liner system is very flexible, creating ease of sealing over most irregular contours. This system can be installed almost anywhere, in any configuration and to any length. The equipment is offered as rental item in heights of 3', 5', 7' and 10'. If you have a need to control standing or flowing water—whether for construction, repair of structures, flood control, storage or diversion— let us help you. PORTADAM, Inc., offers free consultation, site surveys and budget pricing. We can handle your water control problems. In the following pages you’ll see a sampling of the various types of projects we have successfully handled in the past.

A two-phase operation allows for unimpeded flow of water around the work site while offering an environmentally-friendly cofferdam system with no introduction of harmful materials to the watercourse. Adjustment of the river or streambed prior to installation is normally not required. Flexibility of the PORTADAM system equipment allows for installation over irregular contours and around obstructions. The “free-standing” characteristic of this system leaves the work area unobstructed and completely free of cross bracing, allowing the pipeline installation to proceed from the land portion directly to the riverbed. Since no fill material is required, excavation depths are greatly reduced. Concrete encasement can be poured in the dry without fear of watercourse contamination. Pipeline river crossing in a two-phase operation. PORTADAM can be used in most streams and rivers. Much less costly than directional drilling. 3 53545-Portadam-Broc.qxd 6/28/05 7:00 AM Page 3 Low head dam rehabilitation and retrofit can easily be accomplished behind a PORTADAM cofferdam system. Water flow can be diverted to one side of the river in a two phase construction sequence, or diverted through an alternate bypass channel. The PORTADAM steel framework and liner components adapt easily to the spillway shape to construct a continuous cofferdam line, both upstream and downstream. Dewatering upstream of a hydro plant intake structure can facilitate repair or replace- ment of old trashracks. PORTADAM technology is also used for tailrace area de-watering, gate replacement and concrete spillway repairs. This equipment offers plant operators alternatives for dewatering areas without the problems associated with earthfill or the costs of sheet piling operations. Divert river flow to allow spillway repairs under any conditions. Repair entire dam, forebay, trash rack or tailrace structures. PORTADAM is used extensively for additions of fish ladders and gate structures. 4 53545-Portadam-Broc.qxd 6/28/05 7:00 AM Page 4 Concrete intake structures situated along the edge of a river or lake can be repaired or constructed in a dry work area behind a PORTADAM system. The system can be installed in a 3-sided configuration to provide access into the water body without adverse effects to the water system. This cofferdam method produces an unobstructed work area for excavation and forming as required to construct a new intake structure. Outfall pipelines with diffuser sections are easily installed in the dry behind a PORTADAM structure. The PORTADAM system provides river bed access in an unobstructed work area for trench excavation, pipe assembly and concrete encasement. Typically, no river bed preparation or fill material is required to install a PORTADAM system. No costly fill removal or contour grade adjustments are required after removal of the PORTADAM system. The water course remains virtually unaffected. Intake structures and galleries built in the dry… …Outfalls and discharge pipes constructed with ease… Excavation for sub-structure work is easily achieved. 5 53545-Portadam-Broc.qxd 6/28/05 7:00 AM Page 5 The flexibility of the PORTADAM system equipment allows for installation in practically any configuration and over almost any contour. This feature permits installation along stream banks for restoration such as bulkheads, gabion structures, architectural walls and geoliners. Dewatering these work areas allows for better control of exca- vation at toe of slope, so that proper “key-in” can be made to achieve the best possible construction techniques. Make your revetment job easier by dewatering the work area. …even makes building a seawall easier. 6 Channelizing the flow permits access to both sides of the stream. 53545-Portadam-Broc.qxd 6/28/05 7:00 AM Page 6 Keeping the affected area separated from the clean area is a major consideration on all HazMat remediation sites. Especially in water, there is a great advantage to keeping the clean water from making contact with the contaminated materials. The PORTADAM system offers an effective method of surrounding an in-water remediation site and separating the clean water from the work area while maintaining natural stream or river flow. In addition, by working in a dry area, excavated material dewatering is minimized. This cofferdam method is clean and re-usable. It can be utilized in a multi-phase remediation project while offering clear, unobstructed access to the work area (lake or river bed). No fill material is typically required, therefore the customer does not add more contaminated materials to the site to be remediated. Environmental shoreline cleanup completed from the river side of your site. Remove the water from your remediation site. Access almost any area using “Best Management Practices”. 7 53545-Portadam-Broc.qxd 6/28/05 7:00 AM Page 7 PORTADAM can be installed in virtually any configuration. Also, since it is a lightweight system, it can be installed under existing spans, allowing for continued traffic flow. Span removal is not required as with driven sheeting methods. Culvert rehabilitation is made easy by de-watering or diverting stream flows with the PORTADAM system. If the bridge pier work area is close to shore, the customer might opt for a 3-sided cofferdam structure so that they can access the pier directly from the shore. This configuration will allow for construction equipment and supplies to be utilized directly from the river bed (fill material is not required). Excavation is made easier because the equipment operator is closer to the work (not digging through added fill) and can readily see the entire work area (not digging underwater). If the bridge pier is away from shore, as in large multi-span bridges, the PORTADAM system can be installed in a box or rectangular configuration. Again, fill material is not normally required. The cofferdam is positioned directly on the river or lake bed. Access to the work area is either from the bridge deck or from floating equipment. Because the system is “free-standing”, the pier work area is unobstructed by cross-bracing or tie-backs to the pier face. This open space allows for clear access to excavate, assemble form-work and place protective measures. Also, with the area dry, concrete pours become more visible, controllable, non-polluting and successful. Use laborers, not divers to complete your next bridge pier rehabilitation project… 8 dewater areas of any size… …even under bridge spans where driven sheet piling is difficult. 53545-Portadam-Broc.qxd 6/28/05 7:00 AM Page 8 Installation or repair of boat ramps becomes an easy, land-based operation with the use of the PORTADAM cofferdam system. A 3-sided structure, open to the shore, allows full, open access to the boat ramp work area. No cross bracing is required, leaving the entire work area free of obstruction. Since the main component of the PORTADAM system is a nylon reinforced vinyl liner, the water body is completely protected from the work area. All excavation and concrete work is conducted behind a barrier that keeps the lake, river or stream completely free of siltation, turbidity and pollution. No floating equipment or heavy pile driving machinery is needed to install a PORTADAM. Build your next boat ramp in the dry without costly sheet piling… 9 …to a beautiful completed project. …tie rebar, form and pour… 53545-Portadam-Broc.qxd 6/28/05 7:00 AM Page 9 Adaptability of the PORTADAM system equipment has made it very useful as a temporary holding basin on land. By inverting the equipment installation procedure, the PORTADAM can be used to produce a holding basin of almost any size and configuration. Installation over irregular, unprepared contours makes it far superior to other, less flexible, equipment. Thru-wall connection fittings are easily made with “boots” attached to the vinyl liner. Inlet and outlet pipes of any size can be added prior to shipping or in the field. The unique structural steel wall configuration of the PORTADAM holding basin keeps the bracing system inside of the overall basin “Footprint”, eliminating external bracing. Containment of most fluids can be achieved with the standard VCN liners, but the PORTADAM holding basin can be easily fitted with special liners to accommodate various hazardous liquids. Freestanding temporary basins can be constructed to any size or capacity. …in almost any location. Vinyl liners to handle most fluid types. 10 53545-Portadam-Broc.qxd 6/28/05 7:01 AM Page 10 The PORTADAM system can be used to divert floodwaters away from buildings, treatment plants, reservoirs, even entire towns. The flexibility of the equipment permits quick installation on unprepared surfaces and along almost any desired line. Raise the height of existing levees with PORTADAM, which is 1/10th the weight of standard sandbag extensions, installs in less than 1/10th the amount of time and can achieve an added height of up to 9 feet over top of the existing levee. In addition, the long sealing apron used with the standard PORTADAM equipment will extend down the riverside face of the levee, effectively reduc- ing saturation of the levee soils. Anyone who has ever endured a flood fight realizes that clean-up after the floodwaters recede is very difficult. Not only is there a major disposal (sandbags) prob- lem, but volunteers are not as easily found for the cleanup operation. The PORTADAM system equipment is completely RE-USABLE. All of the equip- ment is easily removed from the site and stored for the next flood fight. No need to re-purchase and dispose of thousands of sandbags all over again. Protection of buildings, treat- ment plants and reservoirs can be accomplished with a system that is installed and removed more quickly and easily than sandbags, which does not produce an eye- sore for the community. Normal plant operations can continue during installation. The skeletal steel framework system can be pre-installed, with access gaps, with the liner being placed only at the final moments. The equipment is offered in various heights from 3' high to 12' high to allow for the desired measure of protection. 11 Plan your flood protection before loss of property begins. Flood protection at a fraction of the cost, setup in a fraction of the time compared to sandbags. 53545-Portadam-Broc.qxd 6/28/05 7:01 AM Page 11 Installation Variations &Attachments Corporate office 3082 South Black Horse Pike Williamstown, NJ 08094 856-740-0606 phone 856-740-0614 fax 800-346-4793 toll-free Southeast Region 154 Falcon Drive, Suite B Forest Park, GA 30297 404-361-5770 phone New England 92 Lincoln Street Dover-Foxcroft, ME 04426 207-564-7878 phone Northwest Region Warehouse Vancouver, WA Dallas, Texas 2761 Oakland Avenue Garland, TX 75041 California Coming Soon 53545-Portadam-Broc.qxd 6/28/05 7:01 AM Page 12 US Flood Control Corp 1 Bowe, Pamela From:Cheryl Witmer <cheryl@usfloodcontrol.com> Sent:Wednesday, September 05, 2012 12:01 PM To:Pugh, Terry Subject:FW: quotes for CDM Attachments:CDM Smith first significant damage senairo USFCQ9012012.xls; CDM Smith 100 year level senairo USFCQ9012012.xls; CDM Smith 270 year level(1993 Flood) USFCQ9012012.xls; CDM Smith 500 Year Level USFCQ9052012.xls; Wenck Intertek Report 2012.PDF Importance:High Hi Terry, Here are some quotes to get you going.

Quote Wenck Engineers • Scientists WENCK ASSOCIATES, INC. TECHNICAL MEMORANDUM TO: Mr. Dave Johnson, Assistant City Engineer City of Fargo, ND FROM: Rodney W. Ambrosie, PE and Paul T. Eickenberg, PE RE: Review of the Tiger Dam System US Flood Control Product (866/852-1118, www.ustloodcontrol.com) DATE: March 22, 2010 Wenck Associates, Inc. (Wenck) has completed a general review of the Tiger Dam System by US Flood Control and is including our findings herein. Within this technical memorandum are 3 sections. The first section, Section 1, provides a general introduction to the Tiger Dam System and includes a reference to an on-line video -clip showing an installation of the product. Section 2 includes seven (7) items that Wenck reviewed in preparation of this technical memorandum. These items were felt to be critical or notable in terms of the information known to date about the product, as well as specific knowledge about the Fargo area where the product is proposed for use. The last section, Section 3, provides a general summary of this memorandum. Additionally, the results of a performance verification program completed by Interlok Testing Services is included in the Appendix at the end of this technical memorandum. Section 1. Introduction of the US Flood Control Tiger Dam System The Tiger Dam System is a multi -tubular emergency levee concept (see Figure 1) composed of 19 -inch diameter vinyl -coated polyester tubes filled with water and stacked on top of each other to create a temporary levee. These temporary levees are constructed by filling each tube with water from the approaching flood or water from local hydrants (or other means). They are then stacked in a triangular manner, tied together with polyester strapping, and fastened to the ground with a screw anchor. As shown in Figure 1, plastic membrane is weaved through the tubes to create a seepage barrier. Figure 1. Section view of Tiger Dam System ' http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GwzUCk_gvt4 In addition to Figure 1 (which shows a generalized cross section of the Tiger Dam System with respect to the flood water), US Flood Control supplied Wenck an on-line video clip'. This video Mr. Dave Johnson, City of Fargo, ND Review of the Tiger Dam System March 22, 2010 Page 2 of 7 Wenck Engineers • Scientists clip was filmed on April 4, 2009 in Winnipeg, Canada during frozen/thawing flood conditions. It shows information about the installation of a system completed to heights up to about 5 feet with an overall length of approximately 1,000 feet. It specifically shows how the tubes are filled and general installation of the strapping. It does not provide any information about the screw anchors. Section 2. Summary of Technical Review Within this section are seven (7) specific items reviewed by Wenck (product length and weight, product size, internal burst pressure due to stacking height, long-term response to UV, anchor capacity, and strapping capacity). These items were felt to be critical or notable in terms of the information known to date about the product. Additionally, specific knowledge about the Fargo area is incorporated into this technical review and our subsequent summary. L Product Length and Weight: Each tube is typically about 50 feet in length and weighs about 60 pounds when empty. Thus, when the tube is filled with water, it will be slightly heavier than the weight of water. The tubes will still require strapping and anchors to resist horizontal water pressure for most loading situations. 2. Product Size: The tubes are approximately 19 inches in diameter. Note that the protective height of a 3 -tube system (2 tubes on the bottom and 1 tube on top) will be less than 38 inches, because the top tube will sit in the crevice existing between the bottom tubes. Furthermore, the exact diameter of the tubes will vary depending on the pressure the tubes are filled to. It appears from general calculations that about 3 inches of height is lost per lift, therefore a 3 -tube triangular system will measure about 35 inches (2.9 feet) in height, instead of 38 inches (3.2 feet). These values are approximate and were not physically measured by Wenck. 3. Internal Burst Pressure due to Stacking Height: According to US Flood Control documentation, the maximum internal burst pressure is equal to 17 psi and the system typically experiences an internal operating pressure of 2 psi. Burst pressure should be evaluated at heights greater than 5 feet. 4. Freezing and Thawing and their Impact on Long -Term Usage: It is not fully understood how the tubes will perform during and after freezing, being that water expands during the freezing process. understood that water is pumped into the tubes until full and then the tubes are sealed with a cap (as seen in the above -referenced video clip). Assuming that the tubes are completely filled and assuming that the water inside these tubes will expand about 9% when frozen, each tube will increase in diameter from about 19 inches to about 19.9 inches, leading to an increase in circumference of about 2.6 inches. This means that the membrane will strain approximately 4.7% during this loading scenario.

Furthermore, Wenck's knowledge of membrane materials indicates that this expansion is acceptable for one or two loadings. However, it is not known if the material will behave elastically or plastically after multiple loadings/uses. Therefore, the allowable expansion over multiple loadings should be reviewed. 5. Long -Term Response to UV: It is not fully understood how the tubes will perform considering UV protection with respect to re -use for many years. Paul Vickers stated that UV protection could be an issue over the long-term, but the tubes are quite durable in the short-term. Even though the documentation provided by US Flood Control states that the tubes are UV stable, this should be reviewed with respect to long-term use. However, for short-term use (i.e., I week to 3 week flood events), damage of the tubing due to UV effects is not likely a concern. 6. Horizontal Wall Forces and Anchor Capacity: Considering a protection height of 1 -foot, 5 feet, and 10 feet, the forces acting upon the upstream face of the wall are shown in Table 1 below. The information in this table is used to determine the anchor capacity. Table 1. Summary of forces acting against the upstream wall face for three scenarios Scenario 1 -foot protection height 5 -foot protection height 10 -foot protection height Force of Water per foot of wall 31.2 pounds per foot of wall 780 pounds per foot of wall 3,120 pounds per foot of wall Engineers from Wenck Associates performed testing of the vertical and lateral capacities of screw anchors on Wednesday, March 10, 2010 and Monday, March 15, 2010 in Fargo, North Dakota. The testing was completed by placing various sized anchors, supplied by US Flood Control, into ground representative of that where the Tiger Dam system will be placed during flood control operations in the Fargo area. The anchors were installed and loaded individually using a front end loader and load cell system so as to measure the actual capacity of each anchor. Furthermore, the anchors were tested in both a vertical and horizontal orientation in order to I) measure the undrained shear strength of the soil (vertical orientation) and 2) estimate the capacity of the anchors in the most representative mode of use (horizontal orientation). A summary of the testing is provided below in Table 2 and discussed in the paragraphs following this table. Note that this table provides the test number and date of test, the anchor length and diameter, the anchor material, the measured capacity of the anchor in either a vertical or horizontal orientation, and notes specifically related to each test. Table 2 provides testing on two different dates, March 10 and March 15, 2010. During the March 10 testing, the four anchors fractured. In response, US Flood Control quickly delivered new anchors for additional testing which was completed on March 15. cU1201R13UMWs flood comroHziger dam memo 21ri0.p3-21 Aoc Mr. Dave Johnson, City of Fargo, ND Review of the Tiger Darn System March 22, 2010 Page 4 of 7 Wenck Engineers • Scientists Table 2.

Back -Calculation of Undrained Shear Strength The undrained shear strength of the soil was back -calculated as shown in the equation below in order to compare it to values considered representative for soils in the Fargo area, to see if the results obtained are reasonable. This sample calculation specifically back -calculates the undrained shear strength for the soil tested on March 15, Test 1 which is comprised of a 22 inch long, 2.5 inch diameter steel anchor placed in thawed ground. The test produced a vertical capacity of 990 pounds and resulted in a back - calculated undrained shear strength value of approximately 825 psf. Other back -calculated shear strengths are provided in Table 2 with an average value of about 750 psf for testing completed in thawed ground (Tests 1, 2, 7, and 10 completed on March 15). It is noted that the surface area of Undrained Shear Strength = Measured Vertical Anchor Capacity Surface Area of Anchor Undrained Shear Strength = Measured Vertical Anchor Capacity 3r x Anchor Diameterx Anchor Length 990 pounds 2.5 inches 22 inches r<x 12 inches/foot x 12 inches/foot Vertical Capacity = 825 psf Vertical Capacity = the anchor is calculated based on the outside diameter of the helices, because the area between the anchor helices was visually observed to be plugged with soil after the anchors were pulled out of the ground. This is consistent behavior for anchors placed in soft soil and is therefore reasonable for soil in the Fargo area. In Fargo, the upper 8 to 12 feet of soil is often composed of the Sherack Formation which has an undrained shear strength of approximately 1,100 psf. Below this is the Brenna Formation which has an undrained shear strength of about 650 psf. The back -calculated shear strength value of approximately 750 psf is reasonably close to the strengths typically used in the Fargo area. This is important to understand because it allows anchor capacities to be estimated in the future if larger anchors are used (either length or diameter). If differing anchors are used, the vertical capacity can be reasonably estimated based on the following equation. Surface area of anchor x Undrained Shear Strength of Sherack Vertical Capacity = Factor of Safety C Vertical Capacity = (ircumference x Anchor Length) x Undrained Shear Strength of Sherack Factor of Safety Vertical Capacity = (n x Anchor Diameter x Anchor Length)x Undrained Shear Strength of Sherack Factor of Safety Discussion of Lateral Capacity According to test results provided in Table 2, the ultimate lateral capacity values ranged from 1,200 pounds to 2,680 pounds for the three tests completed on March 15 in thawed ground (Test 3 equaled 1,470 pounds for a 2.5 -inch diameter anchor, Test 6 equaled 1,200 pounds for a 3.0 -inch diameter anchor, and Test 9 equaled 2,680 pounds for a 4.0 -inch diameter anchor). It is noted that the values were higher for testing completed in frozen or partially frozen ground. Based on the values of anticipated lateral forces provided in Table 1, an anchor system could be designed considering individual site conditions. 1:\02D8unO4 us flood coomoFigerdam memo 2010-03-21.doc Mr, Dave Johnson, City of Fargo, ND Review of the Tiger Darn System March 22, 2010 Page 6 of 7 Wenck Engineers • Scientists In order to estimate the lateral capacity of the anchors for other sites in the Fargo, ND area, the Broms method was used. This method is a simplistic method, but provides reasonable results based on limited data and assumptions of short piling (or anchors). It is carefully noted that this is an empirical correlation, therefore it should be verified with site - specific testing data. The Broms method relies on a few variables as shown in Figures 2 and 3. For this specific situation, the anchors will act in a restrained pile method (at least initially), therefore the values of Q (capacity) and L (length) are required. Additionally, the values of undrained shear strength (c) and anchor diameter (D) are required. Use of this information allows a ratio to be calculated which directly compares the values of Q/cD2 (the ultimate lateral resistance) and L/D (the embedment length). For this project, these ratios are provided in Table 3. The values of Q, D, and L in Table 3 are the same values provided in Table 2. The value of the undrained shear strength (c) is the average value as discussed in the preceding paragraphs. Using these values, the ratios of Q/cD2 and L/D were calculated and plotted as three points on Figure 3. Also shown on this figure is an approximate "best -fit" line, labeled specifically as "Best Fit Line for Fargo, ND," It appears that the lateral (horizontal) load testing performed on the anchors is reasonable in terms of other empirical data (i.e., the data used by Broms to create the original lateral capacity figure). Use of this "best -fit" line can be used to approximate the ultimate capacity of anchors in the Fargo area. Figure 2. Broms method restraint assumptions Figure 3. Empirical lateral capacity solution for Broms method in Fargo, ND clay assuming a restrained pile concept It is noted that the Broms method is not a perfect method because it is an empirical method and also assumes that the anchors are perfectly rigid. But it is a reasonable approximation. It is also noted that this "best -fit" line predicts the ultimate capacity of the anchors based on the soil and anchor testing in Fargo, ND.

Strappine Capacity: According to documentation provided by US Flood Control, the 2 -inch wide polyester strapping has a maximum capacity of about 10,000 pounds. It is noted that Wenck did not test the strapping material. Section 3. Summary and Recommendations In summary, Wenck reviewed seven (7) items in preparation of this technical memo (product length and weight, product size, internal burst pressure and maximum stacking height, long-term response to UV, anchor capacity, and strapping capacity). These items presented information available to date about the product. We then applied our specific knowledge about the Fargo area where the product is proposed for use. Testing was completed on a number of anchors supplied by US Flood Control on March 10 and 15, 2010. This testing allowed back -calculations of the undrained shear strength in the vicinity of the testing and also allowed an empirical relationship between the embedment depth ratio and ultimate lateral resistance ratio to be created. Results of this anchor testing indicated that the soil in the vicinity of the testing was very soft and exhibited an undrained shear strength equal to about 750 psf providing an ultimate lateral capacity ranging from 1,200 pounds to 2,680 pounds (depending on the anchor diameter). A few of the non -technical benefits for the Tiger Dam system include the speed at which it can be installed and the minimal damage to property during placement and removal. Additionally, the product appears to be reusable and have relatively easy storage capabilities versus many traditional systems. Based on results provided in this technical memorandum, an anchor system could be designed to resist about 5 feet of water in the Fargo, ND area. The resisting anchors should be spaced according to the actual site conditions while also accounting for factors of safety incorporating items such as potential for monitoring and level of damage due to breach potential. It is noted, based on test data shown in Table 2, the use of cast aluminum should be avoided because of the observed low capacity values and brittle failure mechanism. t:102D8413W4 us flood conaoftlger den memo 2010-03-214oc CIDIntertek Testing Services ETL SEMKO Intertek Testing Services ETL SEIKO March 14, 2003 U.S. Flood Control Corp. 402 North Division Street Carson City, Nevada 89703 Attention: Paul Vickers CONCLUSIONS AND EXECUTIVE SUMMARY — Project No. 3034172 A test series was conducted by Intertek Testing Services NA Ltd./Warnock Hersey on the US Flood Control Corp. portable, inflatable dam system. The test series was to demonstrate the performance of the dam, its ability to hold back water, to resist puncture, and to determine the maximum internal pressure that the tubes can withstand. The US Flood Control Corp. portable, inflatable dam is intended to be an easy -to -store, and a quick set-up and removal replacement for conventional sandbag dams. The dams eliminate disposal and removal costs, and are re -usable. Our test report showed that a 3 -tier dam of 88 ft. in length can be set up in a few hours with four men, could withstand water depth equalling the height of the dam (47.5 in.), and that wave action did not affect the dam's performance. The dam also was unaffected when purposely dislodged at one end. The tubes are strong enough to withstand 1 atmosphere of pressure, which equates to 32 ft. of water column. The reinforced vinyl fabric material could withstand 21 lbs. of force of a sharp steel point without creating a hole in the material. When punctured, a small leak was created that did not cause failure of the product. Yours truly, INTERTEK TESTING SERVICES NA LTD, Warnock ersey Michael an Geyn, A.Sc.

February 19, 2003 Project No. 3034172 Page 2 of 13 Test Installation The dam was installed by representatives of US Flood Control Corp., in accordance with their installation instructions (See Appendix A). The first step was the placement of the plastic drain tubes on the floor, perpendicular to the dam orientation, every 15 ft. of dam length. Next, the plastic sheet was placed on the floor and folded in half. The plastic sheet was laid on the floor and extended the length of the dam, and about 40 ft. in width. The plastic tarp was folded back along the tubes in preparation for the laying of the dam tubes, as the tarp is later placed up the side and over the top of the dam tubes. The dam configuration for the test was a triangular configuration, with three tubes on the bottom, two tubes for the second tier, and one tube for the top tier, for a total of six tubes. The straps were laid on the floor to secure the tubes together. The tubes were individually laid out and joined with sleeves to form the 88 ft. length of the dam. At the ends, the excess tube length was folded over and secured with an additional sleeve. The three base tubes were inflated with water and tied together with the straps every 5 ft. This process was repeated for the remaining tubes and tiers. Each tier was connected to the previous tier using straps every 10 ft. The final step was bringing the tarp up over the top of the dam and taping it to the pool sides at each end. See the following page for photographs of the installation sequence.

Project No. 3034172 February 19, 2003 Page 6 of 13 Wave Test Performance The wave machine was turned on. The waves created a corresponding subtle rocking motion in the top of the dam. No breach or failure is evident. Photographs — Wave Test Performance US Flood Control Corp. Project No. 3034172 Page 7 of 13 February 19, 2003 Pull -Out Test Performance A winch was used to pull-out and dislodge one end of the dam to release the water. The water was allowed to flow out the end. This did not cause failure of the remainder of the dam to perform its function. The dam was dismantled by opening the drain valves and releasing the water from the tubes. Once empty, the sleeves were removed, the straps were released, and the components were rolled up and carried out.

February 19, 2003 Project No. 3034172 Page 9 of 13 PART B — PUNCTURE TEST The puncture test was conducted at the Intertek Testing Services Laboratory in Coquitlam, B.C. The dam was filled with water on a smooth level surface through the smaller of two water filler/drain caps. Sleeves were slid over the ends of the dam as per the manufacturer's instructions. A pressure gauge was mounted at the filler hose connection. The dam was pressurized to 3 psi to simulate a standard working pressure. A metal cone, as described in CGSB Standard 37 -GP -54M, Section 7.2.7, (60° cone penetration needle with 0.5mm radius tip) was pressed onto the surface of the dam with varying degrees of force to determine the force required to puncture the dam membrane. The following table shows the results of the puncture testing. Test No. 1 Load Applied (lbs.) 28 Puncture (yes/no/minimal) Yes 2 25 Yes 3 20 No 4 20 No 5 21 No 6 22 No 7 23 Minimum 8 24 No 9 24 Yes 10 22 Yes 11 21 No The results of the puncture testing show that the membrane, when pressurized to 3 psi, will puncture at a load of 22 to 24 lbs of force, applied with a metal cone, as described in CGSB Standard 37 -GP -54M, Section 7.2.7. See the following pages for photographs of the puncture test. US Flood Control Corp. February 19, 2003 Project No. 3034172 Page 11 of 13 Photographs — Puncture Test — Continued US Flood Control Corp. February 19, 2003 Project No. 3034172 Page 12 of 13 PART C — BURST PRESSURE TEST The burst pressure test was conducted at the Intertek Testing Services Laboratory in Coquitlam, B.C. The dam consists of a reinforced vinyl fabric tube. It was filled with water on a smooth level surface through the smaller of two water filler/drain caps. Sleeves were slid over the ends of the dam as per the manufacturer's instructions. A pressure gauge was mounted at the filler hose connection. Upon reaching a pressure of 15 pounds per square inch, (103.5 kPa), the larger of the two caps was forced out of the dam. The mechanism fastening the cap to the fabric of the dam consists of a clamping arrangement which grips the fabric of the dam. The clamping force was not adequate to counter the force of the internal water pressure. The dam fabric was released completely from the cap. No torn dam fabric remained within the clamp of the cap. As soon as the cap was ejected, the opening in the dam fabric tore along the length of the dam approximately 1-1/2 feet in both directions. A knot was tied into the dam to reseal it, and the dam was re -pressurized. At a pressure of 16 psi, the smaller of the two caps began to leak at the periphery of the cap and dam fabric. At a pressure of 17 psi, the cap was forced out of the dam. As soon as the cap was ejected, the opening in the dam fabric tore along the length of the dam approximately 5 feet in both directions. No torn dam fabric remained within the clamp of the cap. See the following page for photographs of the burst pressure test. US Flood Control Corp.
