II. SCOPE OF SERVICES
A. Project Understanding & Approach
Eagle Point Park is a natural and cultural treasure on the Mississippi River. Witliin its 10£3 acres the parlc
contains midtiple architecCurally miique picnic and event pavilions, dating back to the Works Pcogress
Administration era, recreational activities such as playgrowids and tennis courts, a ca�tivating fish pond set
wiUiin a limestone grotto on the river's cdgc, and a�� unparalleled viewing path that looks out over the
Mississippi River to Lock and Dam No. 11 and the tri-state area The position of the park, high up mi a bluff
next to the river,h�s meant that it has attracted human visitors fm-tl�ousands of years.
[n 2017 tlie City oP Dubuque published the Eagle Point Park E�viromnental Restoration Management Plan.
The plan includes a site and ecological conditions assessment of the park identifying Icey issues that need to �
be addressed to improve the ecological healCh of the park and a proposed ecological restoration and I
management plan to guide future restoration activities within tl�e park. The plan states the goals Por the park
as follows:
- Removal of invasive,trees,slirubs,and herbaceous species
- Thinning of young,aggressive,native trees from the understory
- Increase the diversity of native trees,shrubs,and herbaceousplants
- Install stormwater best practices to better manage nmoff;and
- Stabilizeerodingravine
As such, the Ciry of Dubuque is i�terested in l�iring a midti-disciplinary cons�dting engineering firm to assist
in drawing up plans for and execubng the goals in the plan. This will include veget�tion restoration plans to
retw�n some of the park's open spaces,which are now maintained as riu�f, to native p1anC communities. It will
also involve plans to improve soil quality in the parlc Yo help reduce runoff, and install�tion oP infiltration and
other stormwater best management practices such as rain gardens and permeable pavements to reduce
runoff and improve water quality. Finally, it will inclucle plans for the stabilization of multiple intensely
eroded ravines throughout the park. The City has also requested that the selectecl considtant handle grant
administration duties for the projecC whicl�includes ftmds from multlple local,state,and federal agencies,and
hanclle constructio�� oversight and administratim� of the project from beginning to e�d. The consultant shall
manage NEPA and Sectron 106 compliance and shall also perform construction inspectlon and staking.

EOR is exLremely excited to propose for this project because Eagle Point Parlc is such a unique and
outstanding place i�i the wm�ld and because Yhe issues that need to be addressed and the methods to address
d�em are finnly within our firm's areas of specialry and ex�ertise. We l�ave direct design and construction
experience with ecological restoration, native plant re-establishment habiYat enhancement, soil restoration,
sCoimwater BMPs and ravinc stabilization. This project is a rare oppm'tunity for us to practice our core
strengths all in one place.And we could not be more delighted to have the opportuniry to do what we do best
in a shmning and culturally significant place such as Eagle Point Parlc and Dubuque.
EOR's approach to this project is to bring to bear our vast experience and expertise in the areas of ecological
restm�ation, stoimwater BMP design, ravine stabilization, grant adminish�ation, and co�struction
management and combine them with leading local professionals from RDG and WHKS to create the most
creative, experienced, and responsive team availabLe. EOR will utilize a combination of staff from om�Twin
Cities office ancl our Boone office in Iowa.A mm�ber of the staff dedicated to this project are based ouC of our
headquarters in the 'Pwin Citles, but rest assured we regularly work on projec[s across lowa (as well as
Wisconsin and Ontario) and are adept at meeting clients' needs and being available locally whenever iC iz
advantageous to tlie project or required. We are accustomed to this arrangement, and did not inchide travel
Yime in our fees for this projecL
B. Work Plan
Task 1. Preliminary Design of Eagle Point Park Restoration Plan Implementation
The projectwill kick-offwith a meeting beCween EOR ancl RDG staff and Ciry of Dubuque representaYives to
review the masCer plan and SRF milestone checklist and determine which practices will be requesting SRP
dollars.Atthis pointGORwill be interested in hearing from the Ciry projectmanager and staff abouttheir
high,medium,and low piiority concerns within tlte park. GOR will cmne to the table wiYh many ideas and
� years of expertise,�ut we find it is always important m Listen first in order to undeiztand the most pressing
❑eeds oFland manage��s and stewards to realize effective and favorable solutions to the problems atha�d.
GOR will rely on the Eagle Point Parl<EnviromnenCal Resto��aGon Management Plan (ERMP)as a guide to the
issues and potential solutions for the park but will also bring new and additional solutimis and tech�iques to
co�sider wl�en creating tlie conceptplan for parl<remediationworlc.
Task 1A. Site Visit
At the begi�ning of Task 1 EOR and RDC staff will visit Eagle Point Parl< for an eatended on-site
review of all existing vegetative rommunibes, existing stormwater basins, and ravine erosio� areas
as documented in the ERMP. The project team will note eaisting Copography and vegetation and
review proposed cmiclitions fi�om the pl�n. The project team will also evaluate all stream channels
and head cut issues as called out in the pl�n. EOR staff will pay parCicular attention to areas that
reveal potential for siting future stormwater 6MPs to reduce overall nmoff and improve water
quality. BOR and RDG staff will also meet with Amy Bouska on site during this visit per SRF milestone
checklist requirements.
Task 1B. Concept Design
EOR will develop a conce�hial plan to guide projecC design. The concept plan will be driven by
opportmiity, need, prioritization, and cost @OR will Carget high priority issues and will develop a
construction cost estimate that will accompany the design and be updated throughout tl�e p�rocess to
ensure that the suite oF options}�ro}�osed maYch the construction buclget available.As we noted on a
recent visit to Eagle Point P�rk,severe ravine erosion is evidenC in mul[iple locations tl�roughout the
par]<, and is highlighted as a high priority issue in the F.RMP. We undeistand tliat stabilizing tlie
ravines is vital to the healtl�a�d safety of the parlc,but it is actually a secon�l step to reducing overall
nmoff witl�in the parlc Ow�concept plan will focus on reducing runoff through change in land cover

(convert Curf Co native vegetation), soil remediation [reduce compaction across tu��f areas and
improve soil health), and siting of stormwater 6MPs (intercepting and infilh�aYing as much runoff as
possible).
[n order to site and design appropriate and effecCive stormwater BMPs such as rain garclens and
permeable pavements we will perform H&I-I modeling of Cagle Point Park [utilizing PCSWMM or
HydroCAD software) to understanci liow much runoff is produced for different sCorm evenCs, and
where itis going.Then we can target our efForts in siting srormwater capYure and infilU�ation 6MPs in
tlie a��eas of most inCense runofE We can also understand what size storn�events�re contribirting the
most to ravine de-slabilizafion. Thus, we can design a Creatment train approach to ma��aging
stormwater before it gets to the headcuts and degraded ravines. �inally,we will review ravine issues
�nd identify areas to target with our�mique a}�proach to ravine stabilization,outlined below.
RAVINE STABILIZATION APPROACH
A Model for Ravine Stabilization throughout Dubuque
Our assemUled team has arguably the most ravine stabilization experience in this market.We have
completed dozens of similar projects including the Mirmesota River Bnsin Ravine StnbiliznCion Charrette,
where EOR facilitated a workshop on the topic attended by academic,government and private experts.
Furthermore,EOR is adept&committed to challenging the notion to address these inst�bilitles solely with
costly pipe and rock infrastructure.We�re able to provide superior stability with greater re[urns(habitat,
water quality,aestlietics)at less construction cost by adhering to the following approach,which we
reconunend for Eagle Point Park:
• Assemble a multidisciplinary team,with soil bio-engineering geotechnical,erosion control,
stormwater management;vegetation establishment&stakeholder coordi��ation expertise.Truemulti-
disciplinary involvement may cost a little more on the front end,but will rehu-n dividends in
construction savings
• Address the problem not just the svmptom—too oken all resources and attention are directed at the
ravine itself,when the biggest returns are made within tlie drainage area.We will vet all opportunities
to detain,slow and clean stornnvater rwioff,whicli will afford the superior stability with greater
reriu-ns mention previously
• Construct existing and proposed conditions hydrology and hydraulics model to inform design and
stakeholders on:
o Essential rate&volume control
o SelectappropriateBMPforlocation
o Efticiently sizing/design BMP to ensure both stability and that dollars aren't squandered
via over-engineering
o [nform stakeholders oncost-benefit
• Utilize self-healing stabilization measm�es N�at getstronger wiYh time,limit tree loss and are more
sustainable
• Minimize Vegetation Disturbance&Cost
o Understand the tolerances of existing vegeta[ion
o Limit cut/fill
o Identify and[ake access into account Flexiblesolutlons
o Befor[hrightaUouttreeloss
o Utilize onsite materials
• Involve all stakeholders in the process and maintain clear communications
• Constructability
c Clearly commimicate these nomtraditional approaches to stakeholders and prospective
contractm-s
o Refine typical approaches to specific site co�ditions
o Innovative,but practical/feasiblesolutions

Task 1C. Permitting
EOR undeisCands the cultural anci historic significance of Eagle Point Parlc and the approach Chat is
needed to protect the park's resources and legacy. We will conduct the NEPA and Section 106
reviews in a concm�rent, parallel pirocess. E02 will also conduct public outreach and a public input
meetlng to meet both SRi'and NEPA criteria and requirements.
Because it is a government-to-government process, EOR assumes that the National Parl< Service,
Environmental Protecfion Agency and�or Ciry staFf wilL initiate Native Americ�n a�d 'L'ribal
consultation as part of the NGPA and Section 106 reviews.
GOR assumes the resulYs,conclusions, and recommenciations presented in the 2015 intensive Phase L
archaeological resources inventory prepared by W�psi Valley Archaeology have been reviewed and
accepted by the Iowa State I-Iistoric Preservation OfFice and will be accepted by interested Tribal
Historic Prese�vatio❑ Offices, with no addiCional archaeological fieldwork except for areas �ot
previousty inventoried for archaeological resourres. We have provideci an allowance for additional
archaeological fieldwork associated with specific sites chosen For resCoration activities or BMPs, but
this is subject to change based upon clecisions made cluring the preliminary design phase.
Other than areas not inventoried during the 2015 intensivc Phase I archaeological rewurces
inventory prepared by Wapsi Valley Archaeology, �o additional inventory or archaeological testing
will be perfm�med. 'Che exception to this for areas outside previously inventm�ied areas that may be
subject Yo gro�md dishirbi��g activities.
Archaeological construction monitoring is not part of the NEPA or Section 106 reviews and will not
be addressed in the proposal. Develo�ment of a Memorandum of Agreement among the Ciry of
Dubuque, Iowa Slate Revolving Funcl, National Parlc Service, Environme�tal Protection Ageney, Lowa
State Historic Preseivation Office, and�or any interested Nativc American tribal govcrnment is not
part of the NEPA or Section 106 reviews and is not included in the p�roposed efforts or costing. The
City will obtain archaeological site shapefiles from the]owa Office of the State Archaeologist to assisC
in placing and avoiding potentially archaeological sites during the design phase of the project and the
devetopment of the NEPA review and Sectiml 106 consultation.
6ecause the Environmental Restoration Plan did not identify any wetland or aquatle communities,
EOR assumes a Level 1 Deslctop Review will 6e sufficient to supply infmmation to for USACE and
IDNR reviews and to include in the NEPA review docimienk Likewise, EOR assumes that the
resto�ation effo�ts will create a net-lift for habitats that support state and federally protected species,
so no additional inventories or assessments beyond what is presented in thc ESA Environmental
Restm�ation Plan will be required for the NEPA review.

Task 5. Perform Construction Inspection
As we lmow from years of experience installing sCormwater BMPs, it is critical to have a trained eye
� inspecting the site ciw�ing the construction process.Tliere are critical actions that need to be taken to ensure
that BMPs are not compacted or conta�uinated during the consh-uction }�rocess, rendering them deficient or
useless even before their completion. EOR, RDG, znd WHKS will all provide staff to ensure that regular
inspecCions are taking place and that st�ff is available for emergency situations such as before 2nc1 after l�rge
rain events. EOR and RDG will provide stafFwith critical experience in BMP design to be on site during critical
BMP construction phases to ensure the besroutcomes.

1. Explanation of Additional Services
The project cost estimate includes costs for three additional services related to
archeology, soil borings/geotechnical, and detailed site survey. Describe the three
additional services in greater detail, providing both the explanation of what each service I
entails and when such service would be implemented. Include the name and
qualifications of the team member who will be handling these aspects of the project
scope.
1) Phase 1 Cultural Resources/Archaeological assessment needs will be based upon the
location of chosen BMP implementation. If BMPs are to be installed in areas that have been
identified as containing historic and cultural resources we will employ Bear Creek
ArchaeoloqV as a sub-consultant to perform site-specific archaeological assessment and
reporting. EOR permitting lead, Bill Martin, has worked frequently with Bear Creel< on
enviranmental assessments throughout lowa, and will coordinate this work.
2) The need for soil borings will also be based on which sites are chosen for BMP installation,
especially for proposed infiltration BMPs. Soil borings will be obtained through a
geotechnical sub-consultant for areas where rain gardens, infiltration basins, and/or
�ermeable pavements are proposed. The soil borings will help us determine infiltration
capability for the features, and appropriate sizing. As pioneering leader in the research and
design of infiltration practices, EOR is adept at working with local geotechnical contractors
to derive the unique analysis necessary for infiltration capacity and sensitivity. Derek Lash
will oversee the selecting of geotechnical sub-consult and boring work.
3) Detailed site survey will be provided by WHKS (Jeremy P. Leemon and staff) and will be
performed only for specific sites of proposed stormwater BMPs. Site survey for each small
site may take up to half a day and will include survey of topo, trees, utilities, and any other
physical items present in the area. The total amount of surveying needed will be based on
the number of sites chosen for final design of BMPs.

2. Ecological Monitoring of Vegetation and Wildlife
Piease provide a recommended approach, time frame and separate cost estimate for
Ecological Monitoring of Vegetation and Wildlife by the consultant team or others.
Include the name and qualifications of the team member or a subcontractor who will be
handling these aspects of the project scope.
Landscape improvement and habitat restoration projects planned for Eagle Point Park have the
potential to provide significant ecological benefit. A targeted monitoring plan initiated early in
the restoration phase will be used to assess ecological changes over time. Baseline data
collected prior to park improvements will be valuable for assessing ecological shifts resultinq
from the improvements and potentially other more regional factors. A thorough and thoughtful
monitoring plan will provide ecological data that is used to adapt restoration activities in the
park if needed. Data collected and presented to the public is a powerful public interest message
that creates opportunities for the City of Dubuque to participate in regional ecological
conversations that generate participation from project partners (nonprofits, agencies, etc.J that
help leverage fiinding and volunteers.
Our approach to ecological monitoring in Eagle Point Park follows the concepts discussed in the
Ecological Monitoring Program (EMPJ. If a notice-to-proceed and weather permit baseline data
collection will commence yet this fall, but monitoring activities will likely start in earnest spring
of 2019 with a site inventory that allows our team an opportunity to assess the entire ecological
health of the site including close inspection of noted erosion issues and potential remedies.
Additional site monitoring will continue from June through September for vegetation and
wildlife. In addition to monitoring birds and butterflies as recammended in the EMP, EOR
biologists will also evaluate habitat for mammals, amphibians and reptiles. Intensive
vegetation monitoring on established plots will be conducted once annually, although
vegetation observations will be noted during all site visits. This will be important to identify
invasive species outbreaks or other vegetation changes not reflected in the established plots;
and will provide data on species and density of spring ephemerals for example. Data collected
each field season will be detailed in an annual report that also includes a summary of findings,
recommendations and strategies for adaptive management that protect the City's investment in
improving ecological resources found within Eagle Point Park.
All field worl<will be completed by the following qualified EOR staffers:

3. Permitting and Grant Administration, Monitoring and Reporting
The proposed scope of work falls short of the City's expectations for the level of service
the consultant is to provide for project management, grant administration, and
coordination. This is especially evident under Task 1 C. Permitting.
The intent of this project is to contract with a consulting firm or team such that City staff
can focus on their daily responsibilities. Our expectation is that City staff will not be
responsible for any aspects of grant administration, monitoring and reporting; permitting;
NEPA and Section 106 process and documentation; etc. City staff will provide project
direction and preferences, but they won't have day-to-day management of the project.
Please provide a revised scope of work for these project tasks that meets the City's
expectations, and any additional cost associated with that higher level of project
management by the consultant.
Working with the State Revolving Fund, lowa State Historic Preservation Office, and lead fecleral
agency, EOR will develop a Memorandum of Agreement among the City, SFR, lead federal
agency, and any other group that wishes to participate in the Section 106 process. The MOA will
be the comer piece to the NEPA review and will drive much of the impact analysis and
mitigation strategies presented in the EA. EOR permitting lead Bill Martin has developed over
100 such agreements for a variety of resources. Additional fee -$2,000

activities conducted in areas where they have important sites and areas. EOR will use the U.S.
Department of Housing and Urban Development's Tribal Directory Assessment Tool (TDAT),
which is a web-accessible database that contains information about federally recognized Indian
tribes and their geographic areas of interest, to identify Native American tribes or nations that
may have interest in the Eagle Point Park area. Once identified, EOR will contact identified
groups on behalf of the City, the SFR, and lead federal agency to solicit comments about project
activities. If there is enough interest and demand, EOR will conduct an on-site visit with
interested tribes or groups to elicit their concerns about project activities on areas of importance
to their cultural tradition and continuance as a people. The information from correspondence
and any site visit will be incorporated into the project EA. Mr. Martin has been involved in
Native American consultation over the past 25 years for a variety of project scopes across the
western U.S. and upper Midwest. Additional fee -$4,000*
*fee daes not include travel, lodging, and other expenses incurred by Na[ive American groups traveling to Eagle
Point Park for a site visit.
For grant management and reporting EOR will work directly with state and federal contacts to
provide timely and regular reports throughout the project, as needed on a grant-by-grant basis.
Derek Lash will act of the grantor's point-of-contact for the City, and will not require additional
input from City staff to complete the grant process. Additional fee - $0

4. Public Engagement
Please describe in detail how you and your team will engage with the local residents
and the larger community regarding the project and help to coordinate at least one (1)
public meeting. Include the name and qualifications of the team member who will be
handling these aspects of the project scope.
We intend to use non-traditional, creative, grassroots approaches to effectively reach out to a
variety of stakeholders and incorporate their input in the planning process.
We intend to host a public meeting, mostly likely an open house style event, to educate the
public, garner input and raise interest in the project. The informal event will be staffed by EOR
and the City.
During the same visit we will also orchestrate and facilitate a "Pop Up" Event at Eagle Point to
directly engage users and reach a greater percentage of disadvantaged users. Pop up
engagement is a style of engagement in which organizers simply "pop-up" a booth or table in a
busy public location, perhaps in conjunction with another event, and offer simple and fun ways
for people to learn about the project and leave their input.
To ensure that everyone has a chance to have their say on your project, we intend to utilize an
online spatial engagement platform, such as socialpinpoint, to reach those that could not attend
events and display any input for all users. Social Pinpoint is an elegant online engagement tool
thbt allows members of the public to record feedback by simply droppinq pins on a map. It's
become incredibly popular with Community Engagement professionals, thanks to its easy-to-use
drag-and-drop interface. Community members, key stakeholders and anyone else with an
interest in the project can add feedback to a live map. An example of a current Minneapolis
greenway corridor planning project utilizing this tool can be found here.
These engagements will be led by Britta Hansen (EOR) and Ryan Peterson (RDG). Both Britta
and Ryan are professional landscape architeds with ample and diverse experience prepping and
facilitating public engagement.

Please provide the team's experience working on stormwater management and green
infrastructure projects in the state of lowa using the lowa Stormwater Management
Manual. Include the name and qualifications of the team member(s) who will be
handling these aspects of the project scope.
Derek Lash: Derek has been working with the City of Storm Lal<e, lowa for six years. His work
has ranged from basic drainage feasibility studies to implementation of multi-million dollar
flood mitigation projects, all with a backbone centered on green infrastructure & low impact
development. Derek has provided complete project delivery; including the services of Project
Manager, Project Engineer, and Bidding & Construction Manager.
Por the various projects, all have adhered to the lowa Storm Water Management Manual, IDALS
design checklists, SUDAS design & specification manuals, IA DOT design standards &
specifications, IA DNR permit requirements, and NRCS technical standards.
As the Engineer-of-Record, with Derek acting as the Project Manager and Project Engineer, EOR
has been responsible for providing complete civil engineering & landscape architecture services.
Some of these services have included geotechnical soils analysis, topographical surveying,
environmental contamination soils analysis, subsurface utilities investigation, phase 1a
assessment & recannaissance, hydrology & hydraulic analysis, and mnstruction materials
testing.
For the City of Storm Lake, Derek has been involved with green infrastructure projects requiring
the analysis of over 1600 acres of drainage area, as well as utility investigation of over 10,000
linear feet of drainage district tile lines and municipal storm sewer. These projects have been
located in a mix of landscape settings; induding agriculture farm fields, commercial & industrial
properties, public parks, and former water treatment lime lagoons. In addition, multiple projects
have included some impact on municipal utilities; such as streets, sanitary sewer, water main,
high pressure gas pipes, and fiber optic cables. Derek is currently managing over $700,000 in
engineering & design services, which amounts to approximately$4 million in construction value
to be implemented by 2020. These projects have been partially financed by SRF, IDALS, HUD,
FEMA CDBG, and other sources.
In addition, Derek is currently working in the Middle Cedar Watershed, assisting the Middle
Cedar Watershed Management Authority with implementation of flood mitigation & water
quality practices located primarily on agriculture farm fields. These storm water management
practices are being designed in accordance to the standards in the lowa Storm Water
Management Manual, as well as NRCS technical standards. Derek is also assisting Linn County
Conservation with feasibility level design of practices in their portion of the Middle Cedar WMA.
Furthermore, Derek will be part of a team soon planning & implementing practices in the North

Britta Hansen: Brittn has performed storm water management feasibility and design for the City
of Storm Lake, lowa, and the City of Cedar Rapids, lowa. In Storm Lake Britta collaborated on
the design for the Abner Bell Created Wetland, contributing concept design, conceptualization
graphics, grading plans, and landscape restoration plans that included unique constructed
habitat features for birds and turtles. She also designed a demonstration rain garden for Circle I
Park on the south side of Buena Vista University. The rain garden has a one acre drainage area �
and is intended to beautify the park as well as educate visitors about storm water management.
The rain garden design features a curb cut and decorative trench grates, concrete runnel, pre-
treatment device, and ornamental boulders and stepping stones, as well as a diverse plant �
palette of ornamental natives. Other storm water management projects in Storm Lake have
been larger in scale including a 20,000 square foot bioretention facility wrapping around a
community baseball diamond at West Ninth Park, and a "storm water park" with meandering
paths through a restored prairie and lookouts with seating north of the Field of Oreams
community recreation complex.
Projects currently in design in Storm Lake include LID storm water management features across
the street from the Tyson Foods processing plant, and at Radio Park near a major storm water
outlet to Storm Lake, as well a storm water and landscape restoration project at the wastewater
treatment plant featuring 12 acres of storm water management, ecological restoration, and
wildlife habitat.
In Cedar Rapids Britta developed concept plans and graphics forintegrating LID storm water
management features into the ROW of a fully developed urban district. Concepts included linear
rain gardens and tree trenches to fit into long, narrow spaces, with more elaborate "gateway'
designs at key intersections. Britta prepared concept plans and landscape renderings for a
variety of scenarios.
All of Britta's designs in lowa have adhered to the lowa Storm Water Management Manual and
she has worked closely with IDALS staff to ensure that practices are designed and executed to
lowa standards.
Kyle Bennett: In his time working with the Scott County Soil and Water Conservation District
Kyle was a part of the team that approved residential BMP plans. He helped calculate the
needed square footage for the drainage area and calculated the soil composition (%
topsoil/sand etc.)for BMP composition. Once approved he conducted on-site inspections of the
construction to ensure installation was meeting the lowa Storm Water Management Manual
specifications. In his time worl<ing for the City of Davenport, he participated in the installation
and maintenance of permeable paving on Dover Court and biocell construction on the Riverfront
Park, both located in Davenport.
Ryan Peterson: Ryan has designed many stormwater management projects throughout lowa
and has served on the lowa Stormwater Management Manual Technical Committee from 2009-
present and has helped define the standards for bioretention, permeable paving, rain gardens
and other urban conservation practices in lowa.
