SCOPE OF WORK
City of Port Orchard
Funding Application Development for Proposed City Projects
9-14-16
Introduction
The City of Port Orchard would like to leverage grant funds to improve drainage and water quality
discharges to local streams and the Sinclair Inlet. The City has identified three water quality
projects targeted for grant funding. Ecology manages four primary sources of funding under an
integrated annual funding cycle, the Clean Water Act Section 319 Program, Stormwater Financial
Assistance Program, Washington State Water Pollution Control Revolving Fund Program, and the
Centennial Clean Water Program. Applicants use one integrated financial assistance application to
apply for funds from the four funding sources.
The City has selected Louis Berger to assist with preparation of three project applications. On a
preliminary basis, the three identified project include:
Project #1 — Downtown Drainage Improvements
Project #2 — 413 West Street and Estuary Improvements
Project #3 — Arnold Creek Box Culvert Improvements
The stormwater grants are primarily supporting water quality improvements. As a part of the work,
the Consultant and City will work together to define the projects with the goal of targeting grants.
That is each of the project definitions may change in order to seek more successful scoring of grant
applications.
The project schedule is important as the grant applications are due to Ecology on October 21,
2016,
Task 1 - Project Workshop and Definition
The Consultant team will meet with key City staff to gather information needed to fully understand
each project's goals and objectives, the conditions within each of the project areas, and what the
City would like to achieve through the grant -funded project. Key background information that
would support the grant proposal would be identified. This information shall be provided to the
Louis Berger
Consultant by the City. The workshop would also include brainstorming about how the project
could be framed from the perspective of the target grant areas. This would also include a
discussion of the benefits of stakeholder coordination, for example, if support could be obtained
from affected jurisdictions such as the Port of Bremerton.
Task 2 — Draft Grant Application Development
This task will include development of the draft grant applications for City review. Major elements
of the grant include a project description, project scope and cost estimate, project team, and water
quality improvement form. Following submittal of the draft application to the City, the Consultant
would meet with the City (or conduct a conference call) to collect input and direction for finalizing
the applications.
Task 3 — Final Grant Application Development
This task will include development of the final grant applications ready for City final review and
submittal to Ecology. The final grant applications would incorporate City comments on the draft
and be set up in the Ecology Administration of Grants and Loans (EAGL) format for submittal to
Ecology.
Task 4 — Project Management
Project Management will include the following activities:
Project Administration (contract administration and setup, project filling, and project
close out).
Progress reporting and invoicing.
Miscellaneous communications with the City
Assumptions
• Stakeholder Coordination (e.g., get support for the grant by the Port will be done by the
City).
• For the identified projects, the extent of features that emphasize grant priorities will be
discussed. Should it become apparent that a particular project is not likely to gain Ecology
support, it may be dropped from the list or a new better project added. If this is done, it
would need to be decided at the workshop meeting in order to meet schedule and budget.
• The scope of work does not include detailed technical analyses. These analyses are
assumed to be part of work that would be conducted as part of a grant -funded project.
• A short field visit with the Consultant and City staff will follow the workshop. This is
assumed to be the only field visit or inspection.
• Any site -specific graphics are part of the applications will be provided by the City.
• Workshop meeting will occur no later than October 4, 2016.
