This <br /> pipe drops over 100 feet down the steep slope to a ditch at the BNSF railroad tracks. Surface water flows <br /> then cross under the tracks in a culvert and discharge to Possession Sound. This temporary above-ground <br /> pipe was installed ten years ago to address erosion problems on the hillside above the BNSF railroad tracks. <br /> The City entered into a Professional Services Agreement with RoseWater Engineering to evaluate and design <br /> a permanent facility that utilizes an existing underground sewer pipeline for conveying surface water down <br /> the hillside. <br /> RoseWater has produced predesign plans and alternatives for City and BNSF consideration. Discussions <br /> with BNSF have resulted in a preferred alternative; however, the timeline for the project has been extended <br /> due to slow responses from BNSF with regard to culvert crossings under BNSF tracks. This amendment <br /> extends the date of completion for the RoseWater Professional Services Agreement. Additionally, the <br /> amendment changes their name to RoseWater GHD in response to a merger with GHD. <br /> RECOMMENDATION: <br /> Authorize the Mayor to sign Amendment No. 2 to the Professional Services Agreement with Rosewater <br /> GHD for the Shore Avenue Outfall Improvement Project. <br /> ♦!J <br />
