CONSULTANT'S actual cost plus a fixed fee. The actual cost shall include direct salary cost, indirect cost rate,
and direct non -salary costs.

on the books of the CONSULTANT in the normal everyday keeping of its books. Progress payments shall
be made at the ICR rates shown in attached Exhibits "D" and "E" of this AGREEMENT. Total

"E", attached hereto and by this reference made part of this AGREEMENT. The CONSULTANT (prime and
all A&E sub -consultants) will submit to the AGENCY within six (6) months after the end of each firm's
fiscal year, an ICR schedule in the format required by the AGENCY (cost category, dollar expenditures, etc.)
for the purpose of adjusting the ICR rate for billings received and paid during the fiscal year represented by
the ICR schedule. It shall also be used for the computation of progress payments during the following year
and for retroactively adjusting the previous year's ICR cost to reflect the actual rate. The ICR schedule will
be sent to Email: ConsultantRates@wsdot.wa.gov.
Failure to supply this information by either the prime CONSULTANT or any of their A&E sub -consultants
shall cause the AGENCY to withhold payment of the billed ICR costs until such time as the required
information is received and an overhead rate for billing purposes is approved.

CONSULTANT'S books and records at any time during regular business hours to determine the actual ICR
rate, if they so desire.

Local Agency A&E Professional Services Cost Plus Fixed Fee Consultant Agreement Page 4 of 14
Revised 0210112021
4. Fixed Fee: The Fixed Fee, which represents the CONSULTANT'S profit, is shown in attached Exhibits "D"
and "E" of this AGREEMENT. This fee is based on the Scope of Work defined in this AGREEMENT and
the estimated person -hours required to perform the stated Scope of Work. In the event the CONSULTANT
enters into a supplemental AGREEMENT for additional work, the supplemental AGREEMENT may
include provisions for the added costs and an appropriate additional fee. The Fixed Fee will be prorated
and paid monthly in proportion to the percentage of work completed by the CONSULTANT and reported
in the Monthly Progress Reports accompanying the billings. Any portion of the Fixed Fee earned but not
previously paid in the progress payments will be covered in the final payment, subject to the provisions of
Section IX entitled "Termination of Agreement."
5. Management Reserve Fund (MRF): The AGENCY may desire to establish MRF to provide the Agreement
Administrator with the flexibility to authorize additional funds to the AGREEMENT for allowable
unforeseen costs, or reimbursing the CONSULTANT for additional work beyond that already defined in
this AGREEMENT. Such authorization(s) shall be in writing and shall not exceed the lesser of $100,000 or
10% of the Total Amount Authorized as shown in the heading of this AGREEMENT. The amount included
for the MRF is shown in the heading of this AGREEMENT. This fund may not be replenished. Any
changes requiring additional costs in excess of the MRF shall be made in accordance with Section XIII,
"Extra Work."
6. Maximum Total Amount Payable: The Maximum Total Amount Payable by the AGENCY to the
CONSULTANT under this AGREEMENT shall not exceed the amount shown in the heading of this
AGREEMENT. The Maximum Total Amount Payable is comprised of the Total Amount Authorized, and
the MRF. The Maximum Total Amount Payable does not include payment for Extra Work as stipulated in
Section XIII, "Extra Work." No minimum amount payable is guaranteed under this AGREEMENT.
B. Monthly Progress Payments: The CONSULTANT may submit billings to the AGENCY for reimbursement of
Actual Costs plus the ICR and calculated fee on a monthly basis during the progress of the work. Such billings
shall be in a format approved by the AGENCY and accompanied by the monthly progress reports required under
Section III, "General Requirements" of this AGREEMENT. The billings will be supported by an itemized
listing for each item including Direct (RAW) Labor, Direct Non -Salary, and allowable ICR Costs to which will
be added the prorated Fixed Fee. To provide a means of verifying the billed Direct (RAW) Labor costs for
CONSULTANT employees, the AGENCY may conduct employee interviews. These interviews may consist of
recording the names, titles, Direct (RAW) Labor rates, and present duties of those employees performing work
on the PROJECT at the time of the interview.
C. Final Payment: Final Payment of any balance due the CONSULTANT of the gross amount earned will be made
promptly upon its verification by the AGENCY after the completion of the work under this AGREEMENT,
contingent, if applicable, upon receipt of all PS&E, plans, maps, notes, reports, electronic data and other related
documents which are required to be furnished under this AGREEMENT. Acceptance of such Final Payment by
the CONSULTANT shall constitute a release of all claims for payment, which the CONSULTANT may have
against the AGENCY unless such claims are specifically reserved in writing and transmitted to the AGENCY by
the CONSULTANT prior to its acceptance. Said Final Payment shall not, however, be a bar to any claims that
the AGENCY may have against the CONSULTANT or to any remedies the AGENCY may pursue with respect
to such claims.
The payment of any billing will not constitute agreement as to the appropriateness of any item and at the time
of final audit; all required adjustments will be made and reflected in a final payment. In the event that such
final audit reveals an overpayment to the CONSULTANT, the CONSULTANT will refund such overpayment to
the AGENCY within thirty (30) calendar days of notice of the overpayment. Such refund shall not constitute
a waiver by the CONSULTANT for any claims relating to the validity of a finding by the AGENCY of
overpayment. The CONSULTANT has twenty (20) working days after receipt of the final POST AUDIT to
begin the appeal process to the AGENCY for audit findings.

payment, the cost records and accounts pertaining to this AGREEMENT and all items related to or bearing upon
these records with the following exception: if any litigation, claim or audit arising out of, in connection with,

this AGREEMENT without liability or, in its discretion, to deduct from this AGREEMENT price or consideration

and responsibility of the CONSULTANT.

AGREEMENT for the CONSULTANT.
Vill. Nondiscrimination
During the performance of this AGREEMENT, the CONSULTANT, for itself, its assignees, sub -consultants,
subcontractors and successors in interest, agrees to comply with the following laws and regulations:
• Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964
(42 U.S.C. Chapter 21 Subchapter V § 2000d
through 2000d-4a)
• Federal -aid Highway Act of 1973
(23 U.S.C. Chapter 3 § 324)
• Rehabilitation Act of 1973
(29 U.S.C. Chapter 16 Subchapter V § 794)
• Age Discrimination Act of 1975
(42 U.S.C. Chapter 76 § 6101 et. seq.)
• Civil Rights Restoration Act of 1987
(Public Law 100-259)
• American with Disabilities Act of 1990
(42 U.S.C. Chapter 126 § 12101 et. seq.)
• 23 CFR Part 200
• 49 CFR Part 21
• 49 CFR Part 26
• RCW 49.60.180
In relation to Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, the CONSULTANT is bound by the provisions of Exhibit "F"
attached hereto and by this reference made part of this AGREEMENT, and shall include the attached Exhibit "F" in
every sub -contract, including procurement of materials and leases of equipment, unless exempt by the Regulations
or directives issued pursuant thereto.
IX. Termination of Agreement
The right is reserved by the AGENCY to terminate this AGREEMENT at any time with or without cause upon ten
(10) days written notice to the CONSULTANT.
In the event this AGREEMENT is terminated by the AGENCY, other than for default on the part of the
CONSULTANT, a final payment shall be made to the CONSULTANT for actual hours charged and any appropriate
fixed fee percentage at the time of termination of this AGREEMENT, plus any direct non -salary costs incurred up to
the time of termination of this AGREEMENT.
No payment shall be made for any SERVICES completed after ten (10) days following receipt by the
CONSULTANT of the notice to terminate. If the accumulated payment made to the CONSULTANT prior to Notice
of Termination exceeds the total amount that would be due when computed as set forth in paragraph two (2) of this
section, then no final payment shall be due and the CONSULTANT shall immediately reimburse the AGENCY for
any excess paid.
If the services of the CONSULTANT are terminated by the AGENCY for default on the part of the CONSULTANT,
the above formula for payment shall not apply.
In the event of a termination for default, the amount to be paid to the CONSULTANT shall be determined by the
AGENCY with consideration given to the actual costs incurred by the CONSULTANT in performing SERVICES
to the date of termination, the amount of SERVICES originally required which was satisfactorily completed to
Agreement Number: 1
Local Agency A&E Professional Services Cost Plus Fixed Fee Consultant Agreement Page 7 of 14
Revised 0210112021
date of termination, whether that SERVICE is in a form or a type which is usable to the AGENCY at the time of
termination, the cost to the AGENCY of employing another firm to complete the SERVICES required and the
time which may be required to do so, and other factors which affect the value to the AGENCY of the SERVICES
performed at the time of termination. Under no circumstances shall payment made under this subsection exceed the
amount, which would have been made using the formula set forth in paragraph two (2) of this section.
If it is determined for any reason that the CONSULTANT was not in default or that the CONSULTANT's failure to
perform is without the CONSULTANT's or its employee's fault or negligence, the termination shall be deemed to
be a termination for the convenience of the AGENCY. In such an event, the CONSULTANT would be reimbursed
for actual costs and appropriate fixed fee percentage in accordance with the termination for other than default
clauses listed previously.
The CONSULTANT shall, within 15 days, notify the AGENCY in writing, in the event of the death of any member,
partner, or officer of the CONSULTANT or the death or change of any of the CONSULTANT's supervisory and/or
other key personnel assigned to the project or disaffiliation of any principally involved CONSULTANT employee.
The CONSULTANT shall also notify the AGENCY, in writing, in the event of the sale or transfer of 50% or
more of the beneficial ownership of the CONSULTANT within 15 days of such sale or transfer occurring. The
CONSULTANT shall continue to be obligated to complete the SERVICES under the terms of this AGREEMENT
unless the AGENCY chooses to terminate this AGREEMENT for convenience or chooses to renegotiate any term(s)
of this AGREEMENT. If termination for convenience occurs, final payment will be made to the CONSULTANT
as set forth in the second and third paragraphs of this section.
Payment for any part of the SERVICES by the AGENCY shall not constitute a waiver by the AGENCY of
any remedies of any type it may have against the CONSULTANT for any breach of this AGREEMENT by the
CONSULTANT, or for failure of the CONSULTANT to perform SERVICES required of it by the AGENCY.
Forbearance of any rights under the AGREEMENT will not constitute waiver of entitlement to exercise those rights
with respect to any future act or omission by the CONSULTANT.
X. Changes of Work
The CONSULTANT shall make such changes and revisions in the completed work of this AGREEMENT as
necessary to correct errors appearing therein, without additional compensation thereof. Should the AGENCY find
it desirable for its own purposes to have previously satisfactorily completed SERVICES or parts thereof changed or
revised, the CONSULTANT shall make such revisions as directed by the AGENCY. This work shall be considered
as Extra Work and will be paid for as herein provided under section XIII "Extra Work."
A, Disputes
Any disputed issue not resolved pursuant to the terms of this AGREEMENT shall be submitted in writing within
10 days to the Director of Public Works or AGENCY Engineer, whose decision in the matter shall be final and
binding on the parties of this AGREEMENT; provided however, that if an action is brought challenging the
Director of Public Works or AGENCY Engineer's decision, that decision shall be subject to judicial review. If the
parties to this AGREEMENT mutually agree, disputes concerning alleged design errors will be conducted under
the procedures found in Exhibit "J". In the event that either party deem it necessary to institute legal action or
proceeding to enforce any right or obligation under this AGREEMENT, this action shall be initiated in the Superior
Court of the State of Washington, situated in the county in which the AGENCY is located. The parties hereto
agree that all questions shall be resolved by application of Washington law and that the parties have the right of
appeal from such decisions of the Superior Court in accordance with the laws of the State of Washington. The
CONSULTANT hereby consents to the personal jurisdiction of the Superior Court of the State of Washington,
situated in the county in which the AGENCY is located.

AGREEMENT. This AGREEMENT shall be interpreted and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of

The CONSULTANT shall defend, indemnify, and hold The State of Washington (STATE) and the AGENCY and
their officers and employees harmless from all claims, demands, or suits at law or equity arising in whole or in part

agents, officers, employees, sub -consultants, subcontractors or vendors, of any tier, or any other persons for whom

sub -consultants, subcontractors or vendors, of any tier, or any other persons for whom the CONSULTANT is legally
liable, and (b) the STATE and/or AGENCY, their agents, officers, employees, sub -consultants, subcontractors and or
vendors, of any tier, or any other persons for whom the STATE and or AGENCY may be legally liable, the defense
and indemnity obligation shall be valid and enforceable only to the extent of the CONSULTANT's negligence or
the negligence of the CONSULTANT's agents, employees, sub -consultants, subcontractors or vendors, of any tier,

Exhibit 1
Alleged Consultant Design Error Procedures
The purpose of this exhibit is to establish a procedure to determine if a consultant's alleged design error is of a
nature that exceeds the accepted standard of care. In addition, it will establish a uniform method for the resolution
and/or cost recovery procedures in those instances where the agency believes it has suffered some material damage
due to the alleged error by the consultant.
Step 1 Potential Consultant Design Error(s) is Identified by Agency's Project Manager
At the first indication of potential consultant design error(s), the first step in the process is for the Agency's
project manager to notify the Director of Public Works or Agency Engineer regarding the potential design
error(s). For federally funded projects, the Region Local Programs Engineer should be informed and
involved in these procedures. (Note: The Director of Public Works or Agency Engineer may appoint an
agency staff person other than the project manager, who has not been as directly involved in the project,
to be responsible for the remaining steps in these procedures.)
Step 2 Project Manager Documents the Alleged Consultant Design Error(s)
After discussion of the alleged design error(s) and the magnitude of the alleged error(s), and with the
Director of Public Works or Agency Engineer's concurrence, the project manager obtains more detailed
documentation than is normally required on the project. Examples include: all decisions and descriptions
of work; photographs, records of labor, materials and equipment.
Step 3 Contact the Consultant Regarding the Alleged Design Error(s)
If it is determined that there is a need to proceed further, the next step in the process is for the project
manager to contact the consultant regarding the alleged design error(s) and the magnitude of the alleged
error(s). The project manager and other appropriate agency staff should represent the agency and the
consultant should be represented by their project manager and any personnel (including sub -consultants)
deemed appropriate for the alleged design errors) issue.
Step 4 Attempt to Resolve Alleged Design Error with Consultant
After the meeting(s) with the consultant have been completed regarding the consultant's alleged design
error(s), there are three possible scenarios:
• It is determined via mutual agreement that there is not a consultant design error(s). If this is the case,
then the process will not proceed beyond this point.
It is determined via mutual agreement that a consultant design error(s) occurred. If this is the case,
then the Director of Public Works or Agency Engineer, or their representatives, negotiate a settlement
with the consultant. The settlement would be paid to the agency or the amount would be reduced from
the consultant's agreement with the agency for the services on the project in which the design error
took place. The agency is to provide LP, through the Region Local Programs Engineer, a summary
of the settlement for review and to make adjustments, if any, as to how the settlement affects federal
reimbursements. No further action is required.
There is not a mutual agreement regarding the alleged consultant design error(s). The consultant may
request that the alleged design errors) issue be forwarded to the Director of Public Works or Agency
Engineer for review. If the Director of Public Works or Agency Engineer, after review with their legal
counsel, is not able to reach mutual agreement with the consultant, proceed to Step 5.
Agreement Number: 1
Exhibit I - Local Agency A&E Professional Services Cost Plus Fixed Fee Consultant Agreement Revised 0210112021 Page 1 of 2
Step 5 Forward Documents to Focal Programs
For federally funded projects all available information, including costs, should be forwarded through the
Region Local Programs Engineer to LP for their review and consultation with the FHWA. LP will meet
with representatives of the agency and the consultant to review the alleged design error(s), and attempt
to find a resolution to the issue. If necessary, LP will request assistance from the Attorney General's Office
for legal interpretation. LP will also identify how the alleged error(s) affects eligibility of project costs
for federal reimbursement.
• If mutual agreement is reached, the agency and consultant adjust the scope of work and costs
to reflect the agreed upon resolution. LP, in consultation with FHWA, will identify the amount
of federal participation in the agreed upon resolution of the issue.
• If mutual agreement is not reached, the agency and consultant may seek settlement -by arbitration
or by litigation.

Exhibit J
Consultant Claim Procedures
The purpose of this exhibit is to describe a procedure regarding claim(s) on a consultant agreement. The following
procedures should only be utilized on consultant claims greater than $1,000. If the consultant's claim(s) are a total
Of $1,000 or less, it would not be cost effective to proceed through the outlined steps. It is suggested that the
Director of Public Works or Agency Engineer negotiate a fair and reasonable price for the consultant's claim(s)
that total $1,000 or less.
This exhibit will outline the procedures to be followed by the consultant and the agency to consider a potential
claim by the consultant.
Step 1 Consultant Files a Claim with the Agency Project Manager
If the consultant determines that they were requested to perform additional services that were outside
of the agreement's scope of work, they may be entitled to a claim. The first step that must be completed
is the request for consideration of the claim to the Agency's project manager.
The consultant's claim must outline the following:
• Summation of hours by classification for each firm that is included in the claim;
• Any correspondence that directed the consultant to perform the additional work;
• Timeframe of the additional work that was outside of the project scope;
• Summary of direct labor dollars, overhead costs, profit and reimbursable costs associated with
the additional work; and
• Explanation as to why the consultant believes the additional work was outside of the agreement
scope of work.
Step 2 Review by Agency Personnel Regarding the Consultant's Claim for Additional Compensation
After the consultant has completed step 1, the next step in the process is to forward the request to the
Agency's project manager. The project manager will review the consultant's claim and will met with the
Director of Public Works or Agency Engineer to determine if the Agency agrees with the claim. If the
FHWA is participating in the proj ect's funding, forward a copy of the consultant's claim and the Agency's
recommendation for federal participation in the claim to the WSDOT Local Programs through the Region
Local Programs Engineer. If the claim is not .eligible for federal participation, payment will need to be from
agency funds.
If the Agency project manager, Director of Public Works or Agency Engineer, WSDOT Local Programs
(if applicable), and FHWA (if applicable) agree with the consultant's claim, send a request memo, including
backup documentation to the consultant to either supplement the agreement, or create a new agreement
for the claim. After the request has been approved, the Agency shall write the supplement and/or new
agreement and pay the consultant the amount of the claim. Inform the consultant that the final payment for
the agreement is subject to audit. No further action in needed regarding the claim procedures.
If the Agency does not agree with the consultant's claim, proceed to step 3 of the procedures.
Agreement Number: 1
Exhibit J - Local Agency A&E Professional Services Cost Plus Fixed Fee Consultant Agreement Revised 02/01/2021 Page 1 of 2
Step 3 Preparation of Support Documentation Regarding Consultant's Claim(s)
If the Agency does not agree with the consultant's claim, the project manager shall prepare a summary
for the Director of Public Works or Agency Engineer that included the following:
• Copy of information supplied by the consultant regarding the claim;
0 Agency's summation of hours by classification for each firm that should be included in the claim;
• Any correspondence that directed the consultant to perform the additional work;
• Agency's summary of direct labor dollars, overhead costs, profit and reimbursable costs associated
with the additional work;
• Explanation regarding those areas in which the Agency does/does not agree with the consultant's
claim(s);
• Explanation to describe what has been instituted to preclude future consultant claim(s); and
• Recommendations to resolve the claim.
Step 4 Director of Public Works or Agency Engineer Reviews Consultant Claim and Agency Documentation
The Director of Public Works or Agency Engineer shall review and administratively approve or disapprove
the claim, or portions thereof, which may include getting Agency Council or Commission approval (as
appropriate to agency dispute resolution procedures). If the project involves federal participation, obtain
concurrence from WSDOT Local Programs and FHWA regarding final settlement of the claim. If the claim
is not eligible for federal participation, payment will need to be from agency finds.
Step 5 Informing Consultant of Decision regarding the Claim
The Director of Public Works or Agency Engineer shall notify (in writing) the consultant of their final
decision regarding the consultant's claim(s). Include the final dollar amount of the accepted claim(s)
and rationale utilized for the decision.
Step 6 Preparation of Supplement or New Agreement for the Consultant's Claim(s)
The agency shall write the supplement and/or new agreement and pay the consultant the amount
of the claim. Inform the consultant that the final payment for the agreement is subject to audit.

Proposed Scope of Work
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
DCI and the design team understand that the Grant County, is requiring engineering
services as it relates to the preparation of bid ready Plans Specifications and Estimate
(PS&E) documents for the replacement of the previously removed structure known as
Bridge #247, located on Road W-SE approximately 30 miles southeast of Ephrata,
Washington.
The previous structure spanned approximately 100 feet over an irrigation canal
managed by the East Columbia Basin Irrigation District. The previous bridge was
removed to accommodate canal widening, and historical imagery indicates the former
crossing created a flow bottleneck that contributed to substructure damage. With
widening now complete, the County is advancing the replacement bridge using funds
secured through WSDOT's Local Bridge Program.
Based on the requirements as outlined in the WSDOT Local Agency Guidelines (LAG)
Manual, we've outlined our project approach in the following paragraphs for each of
the phases noted below:
1. Preliminary Engineering (PE) Phase:

6
During the 30% design and prior to the acquisition activities, Landau's ROW team
g g p q
takes a collaborative approach with the design team to provide insight and
guidance on minimizing parcel impacts and identifying potential parcel issues
that may affect the project schedule. This will allow the design team to QC right
of way plans, legal descriptions, develop right of way funding estimate (RWFE)
R
and review title reports prior to the acquisition phase. This pre -acquisition work
allows the team to plan and develop an acquisition strategy to meet project
s y=f
schedule deadlines and develop a thorough scope of work for the appraiser.
2.4 Civil Engineering Support
The civil design team will work with Grant County to establish viable alternatives
for road realignment. These will be presented in a way that shows the
advantages and disadvantages of each, providing enough data to allow Grant
K.
County to make an informed decision regarding final design. Using the surface
information provided by the survey team, we will show preliminary alignments,
elevations, and wa ri ht-of-impacts for each alternative.

2.5 Structural Engineering/Report Preparation
Body of the TS&L report will include a number of topics including the following:
{`` • Problem Definition
NINE • Evaluation of the Area Served by the Bridge
9 Describe the Need for the Project and the Problems to be Solved
Describe the Environmental Considerations
General Design Requirements for Improvements
�= Alternative Screening & Analysis
sSs
r s
During this preliminary phase, DCI and the design team will work directly with
zt
ll �
Grant County staff to define design criteria for the proposed rehabilitation.
a
e live Specific items that are anticipated to be defined are as follows: Bridge p g
aq&
loading, lane widths, vehicular barrier and approach rail requirements,
durability/life span requirements. Additionally, the hydraulic analysis as noted
previously will help inform the DCI structural staff on span and freeboard
requirements as it relates to hydraulic concerns.
LOCAL EXPERTISE, NATIONAL EXPERIENCE. LEARN MORE AT DCI-ENGINEERS.COM
The project Geotechnical Engineer will communicate site and laboratory
observations and foundation alternatives with the design team to collaboratively
select the best foundation for the proposed bridge replacement.
It is intended that all this information gathered by the design team during this
preliminary phase will be coalesced and will help inform the alternatives
screening process in selecting the most suitable replacement alternatives. The
project team will explore the alternatives and evaluate their effectiveness, cost -
efficiency, longevity, level of service, and maintenance intensity. Our team will
perform individual interviews with Grant County officials and carefully consider
their feedback to ensure bridge alternatives meet all project needs. It is
anticipated that an initial screening process will yield at most three
superstructure alternatives to consider for the alternatives analysis. The design
team will work during the initial screening process to rule out alternatives that
are found to be unfeasible.
After the screening process has been completed and, at most, three feasible
0 alternatives have been selected, the design team will complete the alternatives
Wlf= analysis process. The alternative analysis will be informed by all preliminary
efforts conducted by the design team. Information will be summarized,
alternatives will be scored and ranked, and a preferred alternative will be
selected/described.
The DCI Structural team will produce schematics for the site. This will be
0 accomplished by performing preliminary structural analysis to identify proposed
material sizes and shapes. A useful life span analysis will be included in this
effort. In support of this effort, the DCI team will be producing a preliminary cost
evaluation for each alternative to assist in the selection process.
The Alternatives Analysis portion of the TS&L will conclude with the design team's
recommendations and description of the preferred alternative. This summary
UJnarrative will describe the factors for arriving at our conclusion and help guide
Grant County in their decision -making process.
` ,���, . Task 2.0 Assumptions:
• Hydrologic (one -percent annual chance or 100-year discharge) calculations are
not necessary. The bridge low chord will be located vertically based on the
high water operating elevations provided by the East Columbia Irrigation
District (ECBID).
UJ• Hydraulic modeling/calculations are not necessary. Hydraulic velocity and
water surface elevation and longitudinal slope at alternative bridge crossing
locations will be provided by SCBID. Applicable high water elevations at
alternative crossing locations will be calculated using the reported canal water
surface elevation slope.
• Hydrologic and hydraulic documents, including Hydraulics Report, are not
necessary to permit and construct the bring in compliance with United States

r.
SEPA, Critical Areas Ordinance and Shorelines Compliance - AEC will
coordinate with Grant County Planning to determine if the project may fall
under exemptions within SEPA regulations, Critical Areas Ordinance and
OJI-1:-
the Shoreline Master Program; however, this will be dependent upon the
impacts to wetlands, streams, buffers and other critical areas. County
Staff, information presented and the extent of work below OHWM will be
-�
factors. For the purpose of this scope, AEC anticipates that due to the
p p
potential for road realignment an exemption would not apply and a SEPA
checklist and DNS are required and a critical areas review and report are
anticipated.
• NPDES NOI - There will be more than 1 acre of soil disturbance with
potential to discharge to waterbodies and wetlands; therefore, a NPDES
