SCOPE OF SERVICES
CITY OF FAYETTEVILLE
WHITE RIVER WATERSHED BASINS W-5, W-6, W-I3A, W-20, & W-32
SEWER SYSTEM STUDY
This section is a detailed description of the Work Plan that will be implemented for this
project. Specific Work items were developed based on our understanding of the project needs,
our familiarity with the City of Fayetteville's Wastewater Collection System, and our experience
with many similar projects. The project will include the field investigations and development of
recommended sewer improvements located in South Fayetteville and the City of Greenland,
further described as White River Watershed Basins W-5, W-6, W -13A, W-20, & W-32. This
area is estimated to contain approximately 175,000 linear feet of sewer line and 810 manholes.
The majority of the manholes in W-05, W-06, and W -13A were inspected under a previous
project and are included in an ongoing rehabilitation contract and are not included in this study.
A description of the Work Plan is included in the following sections.
Work Plan
The Work Plan for the City of Fayetteville includes all the necessary engineering,
planning, and field work for developing a Sewer Rehabilitation Plan.

are of upcoming field work. The primary focus will be on smoke testing activities.
Specific tasks will include:
Coordinate smoke testing activities with representatives of the City of Greenland.
2. Provide door hangers for notification of residents during smoke testing activities.
D. Flow Monitoring
Flow monitoring will be conducted at specific locations within the study area. It is
anticipated that six (6) temporary flow meters will be utilized during the study period.
The ENGINEER staff will service the meters on a weekly basis for a period of 60 days.
The ENGINEER will also utilize the CITY's rain gauge network during the study and
will install two to three temporary rain gauges to supplement the network.
Service the six (6) temporary flow meters on a weekly basis for a period of
60 days. Obtain weekly manual depth and velocity profiles to verify the accuracy
of the meters.
2. Service rain gauges on a weekly basis.
3.
Analyze flow data from
the existing metering
station to determine the following:
South Fay-Grul idEngrSSES-ExhibitsMay08.DOC
A-2
5/13/2008
a. Average daily dry -weather flow and peaking factors.
b. Peak infiltration rates if possible.
c. Peak inflow rates for
selected rainfall
events and establish the
relationship
between. peak inflow
and rainfall (Q vs I) for each monitoring
site.
E. Manhole Inspection
A comprehensive below ground inspection of manholes in White River Watershed Basins
W-20 and W-32 will be performed. All subsurface components from the frame seal,
walls, cleanout risers, and bench and trough are inspected. The rim to invert dimension
for all connecting lines will be recorded. The data management computer model is used
to process and analyze the inspection data. Flow rates for major 1/I sources in each of the
manholes inspected will be estimated. Specific work tasks include the following:
Perform inspection at manholes and cleanouts and record data on computerized
data form. (A total of 400 inspections are assumed in the cost proposal.)
2. Perform computerized analysis of VI inspection data with quantification of
observed defects.
F. Rainfall Simulation
This task will specifically identify sections of sewer lines and sources where excessive
infiltration and inflow may be expected to occur during wet -weather periods, including
locations of stormwater transfer into the sanitary sewer system. Work will include smoke
testing and dyed water flooding using comprehensive testing techniques developed by
ENGINEER for such studies. A dual blower intensified smoke technique will be utilized
to test sewer lines in the selected study areas where possible. This enhanced method uses
two smoke blowers for each test segment instead of the conventional technique of one
blower, and includes partial plugging of the segment. The objective is to identify
connections from typical sources such as catch basins, roof leaders, yard drains, area
drains, and detectable main line and lateral defects. Smoke testing will be performed
only during dry periods to maximize the effectiveness of the smoke testing program. It is
anticipated that 100 percent of the sewer lines in both areas will be smoke tested.
Inflow sources will also be identified by means of dyed water flooding of storm sewer
sections and suspected overflows, stream sections, ditch sections, and ponding areas that
may be contributing to inflow. Some of the test areas are based on results of the
ENGINEER'S smoke testing program. Positive dye tests are quantified for leakage rate.
Field test data are input to the computerized data management system and analyzed.
Souihray-GmindEngrSSES-ExhibilsMay08.DOC A-3 5/13/1008
Specific tasks to be included are the following:
Perform dual blower smoke testing with partial plugging on adjacent manholes,
secure photographs of defects, and record results on computerized data form.
175,000 linear feet assumed for the cost proposal.
2. Perform computerized analysis of smoke testing data and select dyed water
flooding locations.
3. Perform dyed water flooding at selected locations and record data on
computerized data forms and perform computerized analysis of data. 60 locations
are assumed in the cost proposal.
4. Perform computerized data analysis of smoke test and dyed water data with
quantification of observed defects.
G. TV Inspection Coordination
A remote -controlled television camera will be placed in the sewer line to observe the
leakage of water from simultaneous dyed water flooding of defects along the main sewer
lines. This inspection will allow the proper identification of each defect and selection of
the correct rehabilitation method. Cleaning and television inspection will be provided by
a subcontractor to the ENGINEER. Heavy cleaning is not included in the cost proposal.
Some cleaning and televising support may be provided by the City.

CITY COUNCIL AGENDA

Thru: Mayor Dan Coody
David Jurgens, Water & Wastewater Director
Fayetteville Sewer Committee
From: Shannon Jones, Water & Wastewater Engineer
Date: May 2, 2008
City Council Meeting of May 20, 2008
Subject: Approval of an engineering services contract with RJN Group, Inc., in the amount of $395,109.00 for a
detailed Sanitary Sewer Evaluation Study (SSES) in South Fayetteville and the City of Greenland, further described
as White River Watershed Basins W-5, W-6, W -13A, W-20, & W-32, and approving a 5% contingency of
$19,800.00.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends approval of an engineering services contract with RN Group, Inc., in the amount of $395,109.00
for a detailed Sanitary Sewer Evaluation Study in South Fayetteville and the City of Greenland, further described as
White River Watershed Basins W-5, W-6, W -13A, W-20, & W-32, and approving a 5% contingency of
$19,800.00.
The wastewater flows from the City of Greenland and a portion of southern Fayetteville are transported to the
sewer interceptor along south Fayetteville, utimately resulting in treatment at the Noland WWTP. The service area
for the SSES is depicted on the attached map.
Collection system rehabilitation reduces infiltration and inflow (I/I) in the system, therefore offsetting domestic
flow increases, thus extending the life of pumping stations and interceptors and increasing the amount of future
growth than can occur in the basins. This rehabilitation project is a major component of the City's larger action
plan to proactively address the continued sewer challenges in the area.
DISCUSSION
This is not a generic, theoretical study, but a detailed and specialized physical examination of every selected
manhole and every inch of selected pipe in our sewer system in this area, which evaluates almost every aspect of
these sewer lines and manholes. The project is similar to those recently completed in other areas of town, which
have been instrumental in -stopping numerous sanitary sewer overflows.
The estimated work includes physical investigations of approximately 175,000 linear feet of sewer line and 810
manholes, smoke testing pipe, performing dyed water examinations, cleaning and televising sewer pipe, and
providing a brief written report of the results.. The majority of the manholes in W-05, W-06, and W -13A were
inspected under a previous project and are included in an ongoing rehabilitation contract and are not included in
this study. Sewer flows and rainfall will be measured at key points throughout the basins. The basins contain
significant amount of old construction (clay or truss pipe mains with some brick and some old concrete manholes)
and some fairly new construction with PVC mains and vacuum tested concrete manholes. In order to not spend
time and money investigating new sewer mains and manholes, most of the effort will be focused on the older lines
in the system. Newer lines will be evaluated by flow evaluation; any sub -areas that appear to have significant I/I
problems will be investigated more thoroughly.
BUDGET IMPACT
Funds are available within the Fiscal Year 2008 Sanitary Sewer Rehabilitation Project.

WHITE RIVER WATERSHED BASINS W-5, W-6, W -13A, W-20, & W-32
SEWER SYSTEM STUDY
This section is a detailed description of the Work Plan that will be implemented for this
project. Specific Work items were developed based on our understanding of the project needs,
our familiarity with the City of Fayetteville's Wastewater Collection System, and our experience
with many similar projects. The project will include the field investigations and development of
recommended sewer improvements located in South Fayetteville and the City of Greenland,
further described as White River Watershed Basins W-5, W-6, W -13A, W-20, & W-32. This
area is estimated to contain approximately 1 75,000 linear feet of sewer line and 810 manholes.
The majority of the manholes in W-05, W-06, and W -13A were inspected under a previous
project and are included in an ongoing rehabilitation contract and are not included in this study.
A description of the Work Plan is included in the following sections.
Work Plan
The Work Plan for the City of Fayetteville includes all the necessary engineering,
planning, and field work for developing a Sewer Rehabilitation Plan.
SEWER SYSTEM STUDY
A. Project Administration
I. Mobilize project team.
2. Meet with CITY staff on a hi -monthly basis to develop project strategy,
coordinate upcoming work, and receive CITY input.
3. Prepare a final schedule of work activities.
4. Provide general consultation with representative CITY staff on an as -needed
basis.
5. Perform internal project control procedures on a monthly basis including schedule
and budget control, quality control review, and monthly progress reports.
6. Perform administration and coordination of subconsultants including contract
finalization, performance, coordination, and payment requests.
Sout1Fay-GnilndEngrSS17S-ExhibitsMay08. DOC A-1 5/2/2008
B. Data Management Program
Review previous study report and incorporate necessary data into project
database.
2. Develop listing of all buried and inaccessible manholes and provide to CITY.
3. Perform final review of system maps to verify boundaries of subdrainage areas
and location of flow monitoring sites.
4. Prepare a map of the study areas utilizing the numbering system developed by the
City. The GIS numbering system will be cross referenced with the earlier
numbering system.
5. Obtain preliminary sewer segments length and diameters from existing database.
Review and modify database as differences are found during field survey
activities.
6. Correct map as differences are found during the field investigation.
C. Public Relations
Public relation activities will be included. to inform the public and industries in the study
are of upcoming field work. The primary focus will be on smoke testing activities.
Specific tasks will include:
Coordinate smoke testing activities with representatives of the City of Greenland.
2. Provide door hangers for notification of residents during smoke testing activities.
D. Flow Monitoring
Flow monitoring will be conducted at specific locations within the study area. It is
anticipated that six (6) temporary flow meters will be utilized during the study period.
The ENGINEER staff will service the meters on a weekly basis for a period of 60 days.
The ENGINEER will also utilize the CITY's rain gauge network during the study and
will install two to three temporary rain gauges to supplement the network.
Service the six (6) temporary flow meters on a weekly basis for a period of
60 days. Obtain weekly manual depth and velocity profiles to verify the accuracy
of the meters.
Service rain gauges on a weekly basis.
3. Analyze flow data from the existing metering station to determine the following:
SouthFay-Gm IndEngrSSES-ExhibitsMay08. DOC A-2 5/2/2008
a. Average daily dry -weather flow and peaking factors.
b. Peak infiltration rates if possible.
c. Peak inflow rates for
selected rainfall
events and establish the
relationship
between peak inflow
and rainfall (Q vs 1) for each monitoring
site.
E. Manhole Inspection
A comprehensive below ground inspection of manholes in White River Watershed Basins
W-20 and W-32 will be performed. All subsurface components from the frame seal,
walls, cleanout risers, and bench and trough are inspected. The rim to invert dimension
for all connecting lines will be recorded. The data management computer model is used
to process and analyze the inspection data. Flow rates for major 1/1 sources in each of the
manholes inspected will be estimated. Specific work tasks include the following:
Perform inspection at manholes and cleanouts and record data on computerized
data form. (A total of 400 inspections are assumed in the cost proposal.)
2. Perform computerized analysis of I/I inspection data with quantification of
observed defects.
F. Rainfall Simulation
This task will specifically identify sections of sewer lines and sources where excessive
infiltration and inflow may be expected to occur during wet -weather periods, including
locations of stormwater transfer into the sanitary sewer system. Work will include smoke
testing and dyed water flooding using comprehensive testing techniques developed by
ENGINEER for such studies. A dual blower intensified smoke technique will be utilized
to test sewer lines in the selected study areas where possible. This enhanced method uses
two smoke blowers for each test segment instead of the conventional technique of one
blower, and includes partial plugging of the segment. The objective is to identify
connections from typical sources such as catch basins, roof leaders, yard drains, area
drains, and detectable main line and lateral defects. Smoke testing will be performed
only during dry periods to maximize the effectiveness of the smoke testing program. It is
anticipated that 100 percent of the sewer lines in both areas will be smoke tested.
Inflow sources will also be identified by means of dyed water flooding of storm sewer
sections and suspected overflows, stream sections, ditch sections, and pending areas that
may be contributing to inflow. Some of the test areas are based on results of the
ENGINEER'S smoke testing program. Positive dye tests are quantified for leakage rate.
Field test data are input to the computerized data management system and analyzed.
SoulhFay-Gmind EngrSS ES-ExhibilsMay08. DOC A-3 5/2/2008
Specific tasks to be included are the following:
