Within Time Limitations
Through coordination with other Halff offices, we have
access to a large pool of qualified professionals. As a
result, we are well-equipped to meet your needs and
concerns while maintaining the highest standards and
your timeline. Project Manager Brian Maurer, PE, has the
availability and is fully committed to the City.
_ ^ ^ Anticipation and
Reaction to Change
A firm's reputation can be enhanced or damaged by
how well that firm navigates the challenges encountered
during the execution of a project. Those challenges
might manifest themselves in changes in direction due
to unforeseen circumstances like unreliable data, public
responses and political pressures. These circumstances
represent risks to the project. Our management
approach is to anticipate those risks on the front end
and develop plans to mitigate them, so they do not
result in project delays. Our team uses a risk register
to track and update this information throughout the
project.
�- Project Management
°= Approach
Our project management program sets the standard
for overall management and establishes a disciplined
approach to delivering the highest performance. In
addition to the regular reporting described above, the
Halff team will appropriately implement a management
approach to address professional and technical
issues. As a result, we will deliver services to the City
resulting in a timely and successful project. Brian will be
responsible for providing overall project management
and successful project delivery. He has strong skills as
a team builder, having led project teams on multiple
projects in Arkansas. In addition, Brian has a reputation
for responsiveness to clients.
ONE HALFF
GG� QA/QC Program
The purpose of our QA/QC program is to achieve
a high degree of confidence that project execution
results in deliverables that meet the client's expectations
and the professional standards that we, as engineers,
are committed to maintaining. Mike Marlar, PE, CFM, will
lead the in-house QA/QC reviews. We develop specific
QA/QC procedures for each assignment to achieve
technical compliance and identify, track, and correct
any possible deficiencies. In addition, we thoroughly
address City and stakeholder comments before the
next submittal. Finally, we review the project for
maintainability, constructability and operability.
ft Overall Reputation of
the Firm
Henry Ford said, "You can't build a reputation on what
you are going to do." Our firm's stellar reputation results
from our collective successes, and we will continue to
build upon that foundation by delivering quality projects
to our clients.
We believe that a reputation is built on the following
foundational drivers:
■ Responsive project management
■ Creative solutions
■ Quality final product
■ Anticipation and reaction to change
■ Delighted customers

Roadway
Kimmel Road
Improvements
Centerton, Arkansas
This multi -phase project included improvements from
the concrete plant on west Kimmel Road to Womack
Road, approximately 2,280 feet. From Kimmel Road
north to the end of the current improved section on
Womack Road is approximately 1,340 linear feet.
The third and current phase includes 3,900 linear feet
and right of way acquisition, traffic control and survey
documents.
Project improvements included a 28-foot wide 2-lane
asphalt -paved section with 2-foot crushed stone base
shoulders, earthen ditch sections on both sides, and
drainage improvements at storm water crossings along
both roads.
Alma Road Improvements
Phases I and II
Alma, Arkansas
The project included providing design concepts, cost
estimates, final plans, contract administration, feasibility
studies, SWPPP and construction observation for the
reconstruction and improvements of Cherry Street,
Fayetteville Avenue, Westfork Street and East
Collum Lane.
The project increased existing roadway widths,
including the addition of turn lanes at major
intersections. In addition, we changed the longitudinal
and cross slopes of existing roads to improve the
drainage and functionality of the corridors. Finally, the
project included adding a curb, gutter, underground
storm drains, and sidewalks to provide pedestrian access
along these corridors.

Kelley Highway Extension
Fort Smith, Arkansas
The project includes the widening and extension of
Kelley Highway between Riverfront Drive and Midland
Boulevard. Our team will widen the existing two-lane
section to a three -lane major collector section consisting
of two through travel lanes and a turn lane. In addition,
our team provided due diligence, topographic surveys,
3D laser scanning, drainage improvements, utility
relocations and right of way easement acquisition.
Sidewalk Improvements
Bentonville, Arkansas
Halff provided design services for improvements that
will ultimately include constructing nearly 2,400 linear
feet of concrete sidewalk and use paths at four locations
in the City of Bentonville for pedestrian and recreational
users. The locations required constructing sidewalks in
existing residential developments and park settings. The
design of the sidewalks included accessibility, drainage
and utility improvements and modifications. The NE Cub
Circle portion required the construction of a retaining
wall to support the sidewalk in areas of awkward grades
as well as connecting to existing sidewalks and soft and
hard -surfaced recreational trails. Halff designed the
improvements and provided construction observation
and management services for the project from the bid
phase through closeout.

Traffic
Fort Smith Downtown
Truck and Traffic Study
Fort Smith, Arkansas
Our firm led efforts to perform a needs assessment to
determine the type and intensity of truck traffic using
the downtown corridor and its effect on road space
and downtown accessibility, considering mapped
constraints. Working group meetings, a public meeting
and one-on-one stakeholder interviews developed the
goals and directives of the study. The study focused
on developing alternatives to reduce truck traffic and
blend with ongoing planning efforts in the downtown
area. Alternatives were evaluated against performance
measures to determine the preferred alternative. We
developed an implementation plan including short-,
mid -and long-term improvements. The study also
included the traffic evaluation of changing one-way
streets to allow two-way traffic on North A and B
and loth and 11th Streets. Again, alternatives were
evaluated, and the preferred scenario was selected and
documented as part of the final report.

documentation, performed a system engineering
analysis on nine signalized intersections, developed
advertisement and selection criteria to select a traffic
adaptive signal timing system vendor for the corridor,
developed traffic signal coordination plans and
developed traffic improvement plans to ARDOT design
standards.

Improvements, Phase D
Fort Smith, Arkansas
An existing earthen channel on the University of
Arkansas -Fort Smith campus was experiencing
significant erosion, undermining an adjacent roadway,
and compromising public safety. Halff provided design
services to construct a new double 10- by 5-foot
box culvert section and converted the open channel
to usable greenspace for the University. The design
included a hydrologic analysis of a 280-acre drainage
basin and a subsequent hydraulic analysis of the
proposed drainage system.

FEMA Risk MAP Program,
Compass PTS Team
FEMA Region 6, Arkansas, Louisiana,
Oklahoma, New Mexico and Texas
Our firm is a Joint Venture (JV) Partner of the Compass
PTS team, one of two teams selected by FEMA for
a national five-year contract to provide Production
and Technical Services (PTS) to support FEMA's Risk
Mapping Assessment and Planning (Risk MAP) Program.
AECOM and CDM Smith lead the Compass JV. As a part
of this contract, each of FEMA's 10 Regions was assigned
to one team. As a result, Compass was selected to
serve as the FEMA Region 6 Regional Service Center
(RCS), provide technical support to the FEMA staff and
answer questions from communities and stakeholders
throughout Arkansas, Louisiana, Oklahoma, New Mexico,
and Texas (the five states in FEMA Region 6).
Typical tasks for the RSC include investigating
congressional inquiries and responding to stakeholder
questions on flood insurance, floodplain mapping, and
flood risk questions. Additionally, support is provided for
the ongoing technical and planning tasks for the FEMA
Region, including levee support, technical reviews, and
GIS-based status tracking and reporting. Finally, with
the severe flooding throughout the region over the past
two years, an essential part of this contract has provided
on -call disaster support for FEMA Region 6.
In addition to the Standard Operations task order
that funds the RSC activities, Compass also performs
detailed hydrologic and hydraulic analyses to support
the accurate identification of flood risk throughout the
region.

Water and Wastewater Utility
Bull Shoals Wastewater Treatment Facility
Bull Shoals, Arkansas
Our firm worked with the City of Bull Shoals to replace the existing Wastewater Treatment Plant, and upgrading
the existing collection system. The firm assisted the City of Bull Shoals in securing $9 million in grants and loans
to fund the project. Four million dollars of the funding is being provided through a USDA grant. Halff developed a
comprehensive preliminary engineering report (PER) for the project for the City to use in pursuing project funding
The PER included assessment of the environmental impact of the project options as well as preliminary cost
estimations.
The design of the projects were completed in Spring 2018. Attention to detail was imperative during this design
process. Developed a grading plan that conformed to the rugged terrain and ensured the adjacent White River was
protected during construction were primary goals of the design team in developing construction drawings and
planning the construction phasing. The new plant has been designed so the existing plant can stay in service until the
new plant was activated.
The rehabilitation of the existing collection system includes open -trench replacement of more than 1.5 miles of
existing sewer mains. The mains selected for replacement follow the alignment of valley streams that drain to the
White River. Decades of erosion resulted in mains that were shallow and exposed and susceptible to inflow and
infiltration (I&I). The new lines were designed with adequate cover and watertight manholes to reduce the City of Bull
Shoals I&I issues.
Our firm assisted the City of Bull Shoals with construction and contract management after the groundbreaking.
Project reports, pay requests, change orders and close out documents were prepared by Halff. The firm also provided
full-time construction observation through the duration of the project. Construction was completed in mid-2020.

Majestic Ball Park
Hot Springs, Arkansas
The historically rich location served as the spring training
facility for the Boston Red Sox, Cincinnati Reds, Brooklyn
Dodgers, and St. Louis Browns. With baseball Hall of Famers
such as Babe Ruth, Hank Aaron, Ty Cobb, Jackie Robinson,
and many more have played in the area, this park's plan
was set to tell the story of baseball in Hot Springs. Halff
prepared a unique master plan and construction documents
for the five -field (artificial turf) baseball complex. The park
includes four little league fields, one college -size field with a
grandstand, and terraced seating areas with custom shade
structures and amenities. Red brick, steel trusses, metal
roofing, and site furnishing details throughout the park are
intended to create a facility like non -other.
The site was not without challenges. In addition to the small
property size for five fields, there is an overhead utility
easement that runs along the entire east side of the park,
creating the need for the thoughtful placement of sports
lighting poles. Since the site is located within the floodplain,
careful planning of field elevations in conjunction with
projected flood modeling was needed to provide a no -rise
impact on the site. Questionable soils required bridging
of sub -base for the fields, and a steep hillside had to be
manipulated to fit the program needs on site.

Oneida Street Bridge
Replacements
Sherwood, Arkansas
The Oneida Street Bridge Replacement project involved
the replacement of an existing two-lane bridge on
Oneida Road over Kellogg Creek that had become
structurally deficient. The existing 96-foot-long bridge
was built in 1975 on timber piles with a 24-foot-wide
concrete deck. The project is a partnership between the
City of Jacksonville, the City of Sherwood and Pulaski
County. The City of Sherwood was the lead agency. The
project included environmental, topographic survey,
hydraulics and hydrology, roadway and bridge design
and right of way exhibits. Metroplan funded the project
construction in August 2018.
The project includes design and construction services
for a three -span precast ARDOT C-Beam bridge
replacement and reconstruction of the roadway
approaches. The proposed bridge cross-section is
38 feet wide and 130 feet long to meet the Central
Arkansas Regional Transportation Study (CARTS)
standards. The proposed structure will lengthen the
bridge from approximately 90 to 131 feet. This will allow
for removing the vertical abutments while maintaining
the hydraulic capacity. A five -span ARDOT precast
superstructure will be supported on concrete bents
with steel piles. Challenges included working around
existing foundation elements and limiting the impact
on the adjacent roadway sections. The hydrology and

Clark County Regional Trail
Master Plan
Clark County, Arkansas
Halff is assisting the Arkadelphia Regional Economic Development
Alliance (AREDA) with visioning, planning and conceptual design
to prepare for developing a regional multi -use trail connecting
areas around Clark County, including DeGray Lake, Caddo Valley,
the Ouachita River, and the City of Arkadelphia. The Clark County
Regional Trail will include soft surface and paved connections to
the existing trail system in Arkadelphia and mountain bike trails at
DeGray Lake.
Halff has worked with AREDA stakeholders to develop a vision
and goals for this project and is currently analyzing the trail route
opportunities connecting the Clark County communities that
will focus on cultural, historical, and natural destinations. The
recreational considerations for this regional trail include possible
off-street and on -street segments for walking, hiking, and biking
to serve recreational and active transportation needs suitable for a
broad cross-section of users.
In addition to the data collected via land use maps and plans, FEMA
boundary maps, utility information, etc., Halff has held interactive
workshops for working partners and community collaborators/
leaders to discuss trail route options, design, and general goals and
objectives and will interpret ideas and suggestions into a series
of recommended trail locations including alternative routes. Upon
completion of the study, Halff will deliver to AREDA a graphically
detailed Master Plan with corresponding maps, alignment plans,
preliminary plans for Phase 1, and cost projections.

Cost Control
The ability to provide services to our clients
within established budgets has been a trademark of
Halff throughout our history. Our success in maintaining
budgets is evidenced most readily by our ability to
design projects within their budgets and, if necessary,
to recommend design solutions that will reduce the
construction cost to within the budgeted amount while
still providing a highly functional project.
During the design process, Halff performs quantity
take -offs and develops statements of probable costs
to compare potential construction costs with budgeted
amounts. Typically staff who develop cost estimates are
architects and engineers involved directly in the design
effort and, therefore, are familiar with the project,
design intent, materials used, as well as construction
methods and anticipated phasing. A summary of
representative cost control methods includes:
■ Preparing a conceptual budget based upon systems
unit costs and experience in the project type.
■ Reviewing and refining the design so the project
remains within budget.
■ Performing on -going value engineering.
■ Comparing the project cost statements to
established industry standard costs.
We will stay in close contact with City staff to confirm
that the design is proceeding toward the intended goals
and that the design team's directives are clear, focused
and within budget.
mom HALFF
CV, duality of Work
We keep an eye on our projects throughout
the design phase to understand changes that may be
happening within and adjacent to our project limits. This
is especially important in communities like Fayetteville,
where timing is critical for coordination to achieve the
most economically compatible solutions. We also look for
ways to make assets sustainable and easier to maintain.
This reduces the workload for staff and, ultimately, the
impact on the taxpayer.
Halff is also committed to serving the City staff in any
way that will assist them with their needs to deliver
a project. For example, on multiple occasions, Halff
has assisted municipal clients by fully coordinating
and preparing comprehensive bidding/specification
documents that included the work of other consultants
that were under contract to the municipality for related
work in the same geographical area. This allowed
the municipality to bid and manage the construction
of the work under a single contract rather than
multiple contracts. Halff's approach to managing and
successfully completing a project takes advantage of our
strong local planning and engineering design expertise in
our projects.
Availability to Meet
Schedules and Deadlines
Maintaining the work schedule is one of the elements that
will define success for contracts. Halff has a reputation
for meeting the schedules that have been laid out by
the project's owners. Our key to successful project
execution is developing the project schedule up front and
identifying the required staffing levels. An integral part
of developing the schedule is involvement with both the
client and relevant regulatory agencies. Our technique
includes using partnering sessions at the beginning of the
project and obtaining commitments from project partners
to expedite the decision -making and review process.
A successful schedule allows the project to develop in an
orderly manner. Brian has the resources and authority to
develop the project schedule and to assign resources to
meet the schedule. He will be responsible for developing
and maintaining the project schedule. He can sequence
tasks so multiple tasks are worked on concurrently,
thereby reducing the overall project schedule.
