Mr. Shawn Hamilton June 6th, 2016 City Manager City of Park Ridge City Hall 505 Butler Place Park Ridge, Illinois Re: 2017 Stormwater Master Plan PW-FY17-05 Dear Mr. McGuire:

ESI Consultants (ESI) is pleased to submit our proposal to perform the professional engineering services required for the 2017 Stormwater Master Plan. We have highlighted our firm’s qualifications to deliver this project for the City. The City will benefit by selecting the ESI because:

It Is All About Our People - With locations throughout the state and a Naperville home office, ESI Consultants, Ltd. has the depth and breadth of professional staff who are more than qualified to develop this Stormwater Master Plan. It is important to consider is not only the Quality of staff you are getting by selecting ESI, but also, and perhaps more importantly, is the Commitment of the assigned staff to the City of Park Ridge. It is our people that make the difference. As a firm and as individuals, we are committed to providing quality service which will enhance the City of Park Ridge.

Our Award Winning Approach - We can guarantee that we will use the same approach that we have used on award-winning projects such as the First Street Redevelopment in St. Charles and the Long Grove Downtown Master Plan:

We will listen. This may seem simple but it is often missed on projects. We know the engineering. But we are experienced enough to understand that we do not know everything there is to know about a project, nor do we know all the issues that are to be addressed. That is why from the very start we will listen.

We will look at the big picture. We will look at how to best address a project from a regional basis, not simply as an isolated location. Each location has different impacts on a broad area including nearby neighborhoods, commercial areas, and schools. This method will result in a better solution and a better community.

We will look for creative solutions. We use our experiences and the additional knowledge we gain by listening to develop creative solutions. Our experience with green and grey infrastructure, along with numerous innovative solutions that we have employed on past projects will be considered along with custom alternatives for each area.

Excellence in Service with Integrity – this is our core belief. It is, in fact, what ESI stands for.

We have provided you with four copies and one electronic copy of our Proposal, as well as a separate cost proposal. If you have any questions or comments, please feel free to contact us at (630) 420-1700, Ext 2102; or by e-mail at [email protected].

Sincerely, ESI CONSULTANTS, LTD. Anthony Malone, P.E. Anthony Bryant, P.E. Vice President Project Manager

In summary, we have found that with proper planning, highly qualified staff and diligent project management, we have been successful in completing our client’s projects within budget and on time.

The City of Park Ridge has retained ESI Consultants as the Engineer to provide professional

services required to prepare 2017 Stormwater Master Plan. This report presents the quality assurance/quality control (QA/QC) plan to be followed through all elements of Project.

The ESI team approach reflects the broad knowledge base and experience of the team leadership. ESI will emphasize an integrated approach involving project studies, public relations, engineering, environmental studies and traffic studies as a true advocate of the City of Park Ridge. The team’s vision is to provide the framework for cost effective, practical management of this project to yield high efficiency solutions and innovative ideas that meet and exceed the City’s core directives, which will also be well received by the public.

I. Project Plan

A. Time Schedule

At the Project Kick-Off meeting a Project Schedule with milestones will be presented to the City for approval. As part of this QA/QC plan the schedule of the project will be tracked and, prior to significant milestones, updates will be sent to the City to confirm that the project is on or ahead of schedule, or if certain elements are not why they are not and what measures will be taken to ensure that they get back on track.

B. Staff-hour Budget

Staff hours and budget will be developed during the project negotiations and by reference are made a part of this QA/QC Plan. The budget will be tracked with ESI’s Ajera * (*trademark) accounting system with details by the overall contract number, the detailed work assignment / PO (sub- contract number if needed), task (billing group) that allows tracking of each line item in the contract and phase which allows for more detailed tracking of the services performed. This is updated WEEKLY so the project manager has the ability to track and monitor progress on a weekly basis. On a monthly basis, the overall project is review for budget and schedule compliance so that corrective action may be taken if necessary. A progress report is provided with each invoice to the client and any changes in scope or potential adjustments are flagged for review. With this managerial accounting system tracking and feedback system we are able to make corrective actions if needed. Additionally, as appropriate, this allows for revisions to scope or changes to be processed in a timely manner.

II. Project Control

C. Organization

Two 30 inch diameter axial pumps were installed in an existing wet well that operated with variable frequency drives. This arrangement allowed for the pumps to have a range from 2,900 gpm to 19,489 gpm. The project also included a precast concrete utility building with a structurally composite concrete sandwich wall panel. The project also included a diesel operated stand by generator sized to operate the entire system during a power outage.

Stagg High School Stormwater Lift Station - Design services were provided to the Consolidated High School District 230 through Studio GC in 2012 and 2013. The school was experiencing stormwater runoff backing up in a portion of the drainage system and running under a doorway to the gymnasium. A stormwater lift station was designed to collect the stormwater from the immediate area thereby removing it from the surcharging drainage system. The lift station was designed to pump water under the 100 year condition and had variable frequency drives to allow for the pumps to operate at a slower speed during smaller rainfall intensities. As standing water in the bottom of the wet well was a concern, self-priming screw centrifugal pumps were selected so the pumps could run in a dry condition, thereby allowing the water level to be lowered as low as possible.

Hydrology: Modified Rational Method ; Hydraulics: Rational Method

East Sewer Lift Station Improvements, Lanark, IL- The City was experiencing surcharging of the lift station approximately once a year for the last two years and desired to reduce or eliminate this condition. As this station served half of the City limits and had not been rehabilitated for several years, the City desired to rehabilitate the station as part of the improvements. The City had been notified that funds from the Illinois Capital Bill had been allocated to the City through a grant from the Illinois Department of Commerce and Economic Opportunity (DCEO). Responsible for the preparation of a concept plan meeting the needs of the City that could also be phased. During the first phase, it was proposed to replace the submersible pumps, pipe and hardware in the wet well, replace the electric components and bury the primary electric feed. Phase II included constructing a building for the controls and a new emergency generator. During the third and fourth phases, install five 20,000 gallon fiberglass underground excess flow tanks and piping system to allow the wastewater to backup in to the tanks during high flow conditions and then be released when the flows in the sewer system subsided.

Palm Beach International Airport, West Palm Beach, Florida – This complex stormwater management project included major modifications to make it more efficient and to expand it to meet the ever growing needs of the area. The entire airport was to be reconstructed in phases so as to maintain operations at the facility. Since the existing facility had been constructed prior to stormwater detention requirements being implemented, the new plan included large detention areas to meet the current requirements. Coordination was extremely important in the phasing plan to have the detention in place prior to new construction taking place. As the majority of the property was covered with pavement or buildings a significant amount of runoff was generated. In addition, South Florida has intense storms which cause flash flood conditions often. As flooding on the runways and taxiways could be catastrophic, the sizing of the drainage structures and piping was extremely important.

Mr. Moy assisted with the design of the drainage system as well as writing special provisions, addressing disposition review comments and reviewing TS&L plans.

The existing I-294/I-290/Illinois Route 64 interchange is a complex intertwining of two Interstate expressways (I-294 and I-290), two strategic regional arterials (IL Route 64 and US Route 20) and several frontage roads. There are numerous bridges, underpasses, ramps, connector roads, and traffic signals that facilitate the movement of traffic along and between the various routes. Currently, I-294 traffic exiting southbound onto North Avenue via I-290 can only exit in the westbound direction. Vehicles that want to travel eastbound on North Avenue frequently take the westbound exit and then turn south into a residential neighborhood. These vehicles use residential streets to circle around and head back eastbound on North Avenue. This traffic movement has created safety concerns in the local Elmhurst neighborhood. It is also suboptimal for the commercial and residential vehicles that want efficient access to businesses and homes east of I-294 in municipalities like Northlake, Melrose Park, and Elmwood Park. The project involves the preparation of Phase 2 Design services for use in letting and constructing the project.

The project required coordination with the Department of Water Management for the installation of a new 12 inch water main and with the construction of the adjacent new UNO High School. The work was performed on an expedited schedule to meet the opening of the new school.

Group B Water Main Replacements, Danville, IL, AQUA Illinois, Inc. – The project included an overall plan for replacing outdated two to eight inch cast Iron water mains with the combination of 8” ductile iron and 8” HDPE water main. The 6500’ (1.24 miles) of new water main was placed within the City of Danville’s Right-of-Way in four different locations throughout the city. The water main project was designed to improve flow rates and to increase the number of fire hydrants for better fire protection. It also utilized the boring of HDPE pipe to minimize the disturbance to the neighborhood driveways, trees and landscaping. The plan developed the methodology to construct the new lines and maintain water service to the users with minimal disruption. The ultimate goal was to design plans for bidding and construction as well as securing IEPA, IDOT, and IHPA permits for the project.

PROJECT UNDERSTANDING/APPROACH

CITY OF PARK RIDGE

2017 STORMWATER MASTER PLAN PW-FY17-05

  

 

General Overview

It is understood that the City of Park Ridge is looking for an experienced firm to provide a citywide Stormwater Master Plan. Over the years the Chicagoland area has been experincing major storm events that have caused widespread flooding within many of their communities. The flooding experienced in these communities have had varied causes: overland, basement back-up, sump pump failure, etc.

ESI Consultants, Ltd. (ESI) understands that each community and the stormwater issues that effect them are unique. New problems and complications can be found everywhere and there is no cookie-cutter solution that will solve every issue on-site, while still being fiscally responsible. We are commited to having our project team thouroughly investigate the stormwater management system of the City of Park Ridge and the nusances that adversely affect its stormwater management. We have found that when it comes to designing custom, effective stormwater solutions, nothing is more important than having a project team with their feet on the ground at the site, investigating each drainage way, each structure, and each foot of sewer. It is by providing this attention to detail that we will propose cost-effective solutions to allieviating the areas flooding issues. ESI anticipates that our entire project team will be involoved in each phase of this project. Our intial approach to the project is as follows:

Project Approach

Review and Collection of Existing Information and Studies

Prior to the project kick-off meeting, ESI will request utility atlas information, existing stormwater studies, information regarding known drainage concerns, and any additional relevant information from the City. Once this data is collected and reviewed, ESI will meet with the City to gather any additional information and insight they have regarding the stormwater management issues that affect them. Specific attention will be paid to flooding complaints, public works issues, access complaints, and a general history of the City. In addition, area maps detailing flood plain limits, wetland areas, and local soil characteristics with be gathered and analyzed for use during the alternatives analysis.

We believe it is useful to establish a website for residents to log-in and note any issues and/or hot button topics they would like to discuss regarding the project area. We have found that often residents do not call in to the local government with their issues, but given a convenient portal to share information, many of them will take advantage of it; much valuable information can be acquired from the local residents in any community and if they feel engaged in the process they will be more likely to embrace proposed future stormwater initiatives.

Inspection of Key Project Locations

As part of this task, ESI will provide site inspection and field reconnaissance of key areas of project concern as identified by the City. For purposes of this proposal, twenty (20) days of site reconnaissance will be assumed. The data gathered will be used in the preparation of design alternatives. Any significant site issues and design issues will be brought to the City’s attention for further discussion. Should certain items have already been assessed and inspected, ESI will review these items and utilize them for the project. The anticipated field tasks to be performed within the key areas include, but are not limited to, the following:

Underground Structure Inspection – A physical inspection of all manholes, catch basins, inlets, and sanitary structures will be performed. Inspection logs for each structure will be kept, internal

photos of each structure will be taken, and the condition of each structure will be assessed. Any deficiency’s will be noted and incorporated into the recommended design solution after discussion with the City.

Existing Site Feature Inventory – ESI staff will perform a detailed inventory and assessment of site features, including culverts, outfalls, trees, and overland flow patterns. This information will be used during the alternatives analysis and design phase.

Drainage Way Assessment – ESI staff will walk the ditches and drainage ways within the project site and note any deficiencies observed. Problem areas will be discussed with the City and incorporated into the final drainage design. It has been our experience that this is often the most effective way to determine the causes and extent of drainage issues within any given sub-basin.

Public Outreach

Community relations will be paramount to the success of this project. We intend to engage the public early on and keep them informed and engaged in this project. Our experience has led us to the simple conclusion that maintaining community relations through the design processes can streamline the approval efforts and make the project shine. We would recommend several open house meetings where the public can attend, share thoughts and comment on the proposed concepts and plans. We have also found that having a “project portal” where residents can see project progress and leave comments and information is a successful way to keep the public engaged. By continuing the community relations, the City can better assure that the public is informed (and often the best “engineering” plan can be perceived as a failure if the public is upset!).

Community-wide stormwater issues are an especially hot-button topic for the residents. After significant storm events, calls with concerns over flooding pour into public works departments and as the frequency of these calls increases, so does the need for short- and long-term solutions to the perceived inadequacies of the local stormwater management system. Of utmost importance to the success of a project such as the Park Ridge Stormwater Master Plan project is having a knowledgeable and well-informed base of residents that are ready to buy into the proposed solutions or ideas that will be presented in the Final Stormwater Master Plan. Many of the solutions that may be presented will require buy-in from the residents in order to pay the stormwater utility fee, maintain proposed best management practices, or grant an easement for stormwater detention. It is our policy to engage the stakeholders early in the project and keep them involved and informed so that the eventual proposed solutions are well received. We will achieve this in three primary ways:

1. Project Website – A project website will be established where residents can log-in and provide feedback regarding the flooding issues that they have had historically. They can also track project progress, milestones, and important dates such as the next public meeting.

2. Public Meetings – We anticipate a minimum of two open public meetings where information regarding the up-to-date findings of the project, possible solutions, and next milestones will be discussed. The meetings would be in an open house setting where residents can feel free to browse exhibits or ask questions of our engineers.

3. Resident Survey – A simple flooding questionnaire will be sent to the residents of the City requesting information regarding their historical flood issues. Based on this information a map of flooding “hot spots” will be compiled. This map will be used to pinpoint the “areas of greatest flooding concern” that will be focused on in the Stormwater Master Plan.

Review and Refine Existing Model

Based on the information gathered and analyzed ESI will review and refine the existing model and provide design alternatives for Park Ridge to review. As part of this task, design options regarding several site issues and concerns are anticipated and will be brought to the attention of the City for consideration. Once the model is updated it will be used as the basis for proposed conditions analysis and ultimately analyze the solutions proposed.

Cost/Benefit Analysis

ESI understands that there is no one solution that will solve all drainage concerns in the area. As part of our analysis we will focus not only on the possible solutions, but each solutions impact to the community. We will strive to find the alternative that benefits a high number of residents for a reasonable cost. Our Project Manager has successfully used this method on the Natalie Creek project, using the program HEC-RAS to model the area over several rain events and several alternatives to determine an estimated number of homes being flood protected by each solution. Using this information, the alternative cost estimate, and an estimate of flood damage prevented a cost benefit ratio was developed to determine the optimal solution. We would propose to use this methodology on this project. During the evaluation and search for proposed solutions, several typical solutions for flooding issues are usually identified:

Project Solutions

Conveyance and Control – Most times stormwater systems are modeled as if it was in well-maintained condition. Site investigation can, and often does, reveal that the existing system is not in good condition. A primary element to the successful mitigation of the flood control issues is the improvement of the conveyance and control of the stormwater within problem areas. If numerous culverts have failed or need to be cleaned out, replaced, or up-sized then the efficiency of the entire system suffers. Existing ditches should also be analyzed for conveyance capacity to determine if surface runoff is contained within the ditch. It is important to prevent overtopping of these ditches into the adjacent street and residential properties because the local topography can cause overland flooding of residents. It will be essential that these systems be improved to optimal operating condition and maintained.

Stormwater Detention – Areas where the sewer system or ditches cannot contain surface runoff should be supplemented with above-ground detention. Areas of vacant land that would be conducive to above-ground detention will be identified in the Stormwater Master Plan. As part of this project we would determine the ownership of parcels or if certain parcels can be obtained for use as storage. It is also a priority, when designing these neighborhood basins, that the land also provide additional benefits back to the community. We would strive to design these basins to have dual-use; either as parks, or pathways, or community fields. We would want each proposed feature to upgrade the overall recreational look and feel of the community.

Green Infrastructure – A large part of providing flood protection to communities is not only conveyance and storage, but runoff reduction. By implementing green infrastructure the amount of runoff through the site can be reduced, thus improving the overall stormwater management in the area. As part of this project we will put together a comprehensive green infrastructure plan detailing proposed areas where green infrastructure can be implemented, their cost and overall benefit. Our proposed project manager designed the first pervious concrete local roadway in Illinois, Cumnor Road in Westmont. He is a big proponent of runoff reduction and green infrastructure and will work to implement it effectively on this project. Other green infrastructure

options are rain gardens, bio-swales, infiltration basins, permeable pavers, naturalized bottom or wetland basins, and a rain-barrel initiative to name a few.

Preparation of the Stormwater Master Plan

ESI Consultants, Ltd. has put together numerous reports, assessments, and master plans for municipal clients. We set milestones during the design phase so that we may sit down with the City and review the current progress and status of the project. Typically these milestones occur at 40%, 80%, and 95% and include the following standard items:

used during the alternatives analysis and any concept plans sheets and estimates compiled during the process. Concept plans and detail sheets are anticipated for each proposed project within the Master Plan.

Project Management and Coordination – A large key to the success of any project is the ability to manage the project and coordinate the work with the numerous agencies and stake-holders involved. With each and every project, ESI uses a project management and tracking system (Ajera) that is tailored to each project and tracks a project’s progress and resources. Not only is the project tracked, but the permits, utilities, and agency coordination are just a few of the other items that are monitored to ensure good communication, coordination and a timely project completion. This system has been used many times in the past and is currently being used to monitor the day to day progress of projects for IDOT and local agencies where we are providing similar design engineering services. Our project manager will oversee the key three elements to any project: Technical Design – At each of the submittal stages, we plan to have our independent QA/ QC

personnel perform a review of the project submittal. Depending on the specific assignment, we will develop a more detailed QA/ QC plan (for example our roadway design checklist is specific to roadways, whereas our storm sewer design checklist is specific to drainage design – each assignment will be looked as with a specific detail).

Project Scheduling – We will work with the City to set up a submittal schedule with each assignment. Our team then meets twice per month to manage and assign staff to assure deadlines are met with the level of quality the City desires. The staff planning meeting is further supplemented by a 6 month look forward conducted once per month and separate project review meetings to assure schedules are met.

Budget Management – Our leadership will track our budget using our Ajera Accounting system which provides weekly updates on budget status and monthly reporting to the City of Park Ridge. This will allow us to track any changes or digressions and monitor this for prompt corrective action and communication.

Agency coordination will be an important part of this project and ESI will be committed to pro-active coordination starting from the Notice to Proceed. We will schedule bi-weekly progress meetings with the City so that they are appraised of the project status. Agency coordination will begin at the Kick off Meeting and continue throughout the project. During the project kickoff meeting, a list of agencies potentially impacted will be reviewed, these agencies will be contacted early on in the process to ensure a smooth transition from design to construction.

SUNSET GROVES NPDES MS4 COMPLIANCE BEST MANAGEMENT PRACTICES LONG GROVE, ILLINOIS

When a commercial development near the intersection of IL Route 83 and Aptakisic Road faltered in the wake of the financial collapse the recently started Sunset Groves project was left in disarray. Private entities including the Sierra Club made this a project of regional interest. As part of the NPDES MS4 permitting, the Village was left responsible for remediation and NPDES enforcement. To make matters worse, the IEPA was threatening fines for the developer (now in default) and the Village independently. ESI Consultants assisted the Village in resolving this issues including supporting negotiations with the IEPA and the developer’s bonding institution. Ultimately ESI successfully worked to resolve the issues, restore the site and obtain a full clearance from the EPA for the Village. ESI designed an interim site plan for permit compliance, provided expedited bidding, contractor selection and construction management services in all facets, and provided follow up support to assure that the project remained viable for further development. Not only were no fines levied, but the development was able to be completed with new financing and support from the IEPA and concerned environmental groups because the site was quickly re-established with Best Management Practices. ESI also assisted the developer on behalf of the Village in successfully resolving outstanding NPDES violation issues directly with the EPA. This project involved review, permitting, coordination, design, construction management, and inspection with multiple agencies including direct meetings and negotiations with IDOT, LCDOT, IEPA, LCSMC, and USACOE.

ESI Consultants, Ltd. PROJECT EXPERIENCE

FIRST STREET REDEVELOPMENT, ST. CHARLES, ILLINOIS

This was a five block redevelopment project within a tax increment financing district. This redevelopment project is adjacent to the Fox River in the downtown area. Much of the project was located within the 100 year floodplain limits and therefore compensatory storage was required. This volume was provided in a nearby park area owned by the City. As a part of this project, a riverwalk along the river was proposed.

As two major overland flow routes for hundreds of upstream residential areas were being blocked, it was important to determine additional routes for this runoff that would not negatively impact he new or existing businesses along the river. This appears to have been successfully performed as flooding has not been an issue during the large storm events that have occurred over the last few years.

ON-CALL STORMWATER & DRAINAGE ENGINEERING SERVICES FOR CROWN ESTATES SUBDIVISION DUPAGE COUNTY, ILLINOIS ESI Consultants, Ltd., was retained by DuPage County to investigate a portion of the existing storm sewer system in the Crown Estates subdivision. The scope of the drainage study was to investigate the flooding causes and recommend potential solutions for a new outlet connection for the Victory Parkway storm sewer. The storm sewer system consists of three branches. They all tie to the same outfall and discharge into a ditch which eventually empties to Addison Creek. The total drainage area is approximately 83.5 acres in size primarily consisting of single-family houses, schoolyards and buildings. By using StormCAD, hydraulic models were developed to analyze both the existing storm sewer system and proposed drainage improvements. The existing drainage problems were identified by the drainage study and 3 alternative solutions were proposed to address the flooding problems. The proposed solutions will increasing the storm sewer system capacity by constructing a new 54” storm sewer branch and a new outlet structure at its outfall to the ditch.

AURORA TOWNSHIP DRAINAGE STUDY KANE COUNTY, ILLINOIS

Extensive research was performed to better understand the drainage issues in the area between South Edgelawn Drive and Terry Avenue along Jericho Road. The purpose of the study was to determine how the stormwater flow was transferred from this area through the drain tile system that continues under the Burlington & Santa Fe Railroad.

Using the County’s aerials and contours, ESI determined the size and shape of the watershed associated with the area of concern. Based on the County’s datum, ESI obtained selected elevations of main features within the drainage area such as water detention ponds and overland flow rates. These features included inverts of main culverts or drain tiles, finished floor elevations of dwellings that flood during significant storm events, and road elevations in the overland flow routes.

Finally, calculations were prepared that determined the amount of runoff generated in the drainage area and determined the size of the discharge pipe required to serve the area. Based on these findings, recommendations of a scope required toward addressing the flooding issues were given. Client: Kane County Water Resources Division 719 S.
