EXHIBIT A
Scope of Work
Oil City Road Revetment MP 8.8-8.9
Geomorphic and Hydraulic Investigation
Two flood events in November 2015 and January 2016 damaged a section of Oil City
Road, isolating residents and threatening utilities buried in the road. Working under an
emergency declaration by County Commissioners, Jefferson County Public Works
obtained permits from WDFW and the US Army Corps of Engineers and retained a
contractor to restore the road. The project included placing 800+ linear feet of rock riprap
along the eroded river bank to protect the road from the Hoh River. Jefferson County is
currently working through after-the-fact permitting and mitigation requirements for the
emergency bank protection project. FEMA, USFW, and NMFS (Services) desire to know
whether the emergency revetment is likely to increase flow velocities and in-turn bank
erosion downstream that could further threaten Oil City Road. They have recommended
that a hydraulic/geomorphic analysis be completed to determine whether the project is
likely to increase downstream bank erosion. Although not part of this assignment, if it is
determined that the revetment is likely to increase erosion downstream, the County may
wish to expand the scope of this agreement to include the identification and evaluation of
mitigative measures.
The purpose of this scope of work is to describe the tasks that will be completed by the
Consultant to determine whether the revetment does increase erosion risks downstream.
Tasks to be completed by the Consultant are described below.
TASKS
1. Data Collection and Review.
The Consultant will collect existing data relevant and useful to the investigation. This will
include but not be limited to:
• 2012 and 2018 LiDAR elevation data.
• Current and historical aerial photographs
• Existing reports includingthe biological assessment that was prepared for the
9
project in July 2017.
• Flood and erosion photographs taken by the County.
• USGS hydrologic data for the Hoh River
Assumptions:
• County will provide relevant data they possess.
2. Project Kick-off Meeting with the County (Web Meeting)
The Consultant and County staff will participate in an on-line web-based meeting to
discuss the history and goal of the project, as well as the desired deliverables.
Assumptions:
• None
3. Site Inspection
Consultant staff will travel to the project site to collect hydraulic, geomorphic and if
necessary, limited topographic data needed to complete the investigation. The
Consultant will examine the existing hydraulic and geomorphic characteristics that
caused the bank to erode, how the river is responding to the revetment and whether the
river is likely to erode the downstream river bank as a result of the revetment.
The Consultant will complete a simple drone photographic survey of the river and river
bank along and downstream from the revetment to document geomorphic and
topographic characteristics of the project area.
Assumptions:
• None
4. Hydrology
The Consultant will update flood frequency estimates for the Hoh River to include the
latest annual instantaneous peak flows collected by the USGS at their gage at the
Highway 101 crossing. The Consultant will use the resulting flows in the hydraulic
analysis below.
Assumptions:
• USGS annual instantaneous peak flows are available from 1961 to present.
• Flood frequency estimates from the gage location will be scaled to the project
location based on USGS regression equations.
5. Hydraulic Analysis
The Consultant will create a simplified 2D HEC-RAS model of the Hoh River in the
vicinity of the project. The word simplified means that the model will only be developed
to the extent needed to estimate flow velocities and patterns downstream of the existing
revetment for both existing and with a roughed surface that would be allowed under the
FEMA Endangered Species Programmatic (Section PDC 42). The model will be used to
estimate how the flow velocities and patterns would be different and whether the existing
revetment increases the likelihood that the bank downstream will erode.
Assumptions:
• The model topographic surface will utilize the 2018 LiDAR.
• Model land cover will be delineated from recent aerial imagery.
• The invert of the Hoh River will be estimated — no riverbed bathymetric
surveys will be collected except elevations may be collected by the
Consultant during the site inspection along the toe of the existing revetment.
• The model will not be calibrated to a known highwater event; the Consultant
will use engineering judgement to set model input parameters.
• Surface treatments on the face of the revetment that represent bank
protection alternatives approved under Section PDC 42 will be represented
by varying Manning's n roughness values and not by physically modifying the
model geometry.
6. Geomorphic Evaluation
In order to characterize the risk of downstream bank erosion, the Consultant will:
• Examine historical channel migration tendencies and patterns within the reach
using historical aerial imagery. This will include examining how gravel bars and
wood jams influence migration.
• Use the information from the bullet above to predict how the river would have
migrated in the future had the revetment not been installed and how it is likely to
migrate now that the revetment exists. The Consultant will also estimate how
this future migration would have been different if the revetment had been
installed with the features that are recommended by the FEMA Endangered
Species Programmatic (Section PDC 42)
Assumptions:
• None
7. Meeting to Discuss Findings with County (Web Meeting)
The Consultant and County staff will participate in an on-line web-based meeting to
present and discuss the study results and next steps.
Assumptions:
• None
8. Project Report
The Consultant will prepare a technical memorandum to summarize and document the
results of the investigation. The audience for the document will be County staff, as well
as FEMA and their partners.
Assumptions:
• A draft of the report will be provided to the County review. Upon receipt of
comments, the Consultant will refine the report and submit a final stamped
version as a PDF.
9. Administration
The Consultant will maintain close and frequent communication with the County's project
manager and will prepare and submit monthly invoices.
Schedule: Work to be completed within 3 months following Notice to Proceed.
Cost Estimate: See the attached spreadsheet.
Other tasks the consultant may be considered for:
After the investigation described above is complete, the County may choose to have the
Consultant identify and evaluate mitigative actions. The scope and budget for this work
will be prepared at that time.
