This is a Scope of Services document for the City of St. Petersburg, Florida, outlining engineering design services for the Oberly and Washington Terrace Improvements project (Project No. 26005-130). The City is seeking qualified Architectural/Engineering firms to provide comprehensive design services for critical water infrastructure improvements to two high-pressure pump stations serving the City's potable water distribution system. The project encompasses six capital improvement projects: Oberly Storage Tanks, Oberly Pumps, Oberly Valves and Yard Piping, Washington Terrace Storage Tanks, Washington Terrace Pumps, and Washington Terrace Valves and Yard Piping. The scope consists of seven primary tasks: conducting a project kickoff meeting, preparing a Basis of Design Report, developing 60% and 90% design documents, finalizing design documents, providing construction phase services, and completing additional services as needed. The selected A/E firm will be responsible for incorporating energy efficiency and resiliency concepts throughout the design process, coordinating with regulatory agencies, conducting value engineering workshops, supporting public meetings, and providing construction administration services. The project will be executed using a Construction Manager at Risk delivery method.
All A/E personnel and subconsultant/subcontractor employees with regular access to the work site must undergo criminal background checks in accordance with Florida Statute Section 373.6055, with affidavits required prior to site access. The selected firm must maintain required insurance coverage including $1,000,000 per occurrence Commercial General Liability, $1,000,000 Commercial Automobile Liability, Workers' Compensation, and $1,000,000 Errors and Omissions/Professional Liability insurance.

Appendix A - Scope of Services Oberly and Washington Terrace Improvements City of St. Petersburg, Florida Project No. 26005-130
1. INTENT
The City of St. Petersburg, Florida (“City”) is seeking the services of a qualified Architectural/Engineering (“A/E”) firms to provide engineering design services for the Oberly and Washington Terrace Improvements project, located in the City of St. Petersburg.
2. BACKGROUND
The City of St. Petersburg’s primary drinking water source is served by the Cosme Water Treatment Plant in Northern Hillsborough County. The water is transmitted to St. Petersburg through two larger diameter transmission mains (one 48-inch-diameter and one 36-inch-diameter), a booster pump station [Gulf-to-Bay (GTB)], and two pump stations: Oberly and Washington Terrace. The Oberly (OBE) and Washington Terrace (WAS) pump stations serve as the high-pressure pump stations delivering potable water to the City’s service area.
The 48-inch transmission main delivers water to OBE, which has a firm pumping capacity of 64 million gallons per day (MGD), while the 36-inch transmission main directs water to WAS, with a firm pumping capacity of 30 MGD. Additionally, GTB is available to boost pressure in the 36-inch main, when necessary, though its use is limited to specific, infrequent conditions. The pump stations have above ground storage and chemical treatment.
In 2025, HDR Engineering, Inc. completed a “Treated Water Transmission, Storage, and Pumping Facilities Plan” (Facility Plan) for the City of St. Petersburg. The plan outlined a strategic roadmap for the rehabilitation and sustainability of water services for the City. The Facility Plan identified and prioritized capital improvement projects to allow the City to mitigate risks, enhance operational efficiency, and meet future demands.
The Oberly and Washington Improvements includes the following capital projects that were included in the Facility Plan:
| OBE-1 | Oberly Storage Tanks |
| OBE-2 | Oberly Pumps |
| OBE-5 | Oberly Valves and Yard Piping |
| WAS-1 | Washington Terrace Storage Tanks |
| WAS-2 | Washington Terrace Pumps |
| WAS-5 | Washington Terrace Valves and Yard Piping |
Although no additional projects are planned to be included at this time, the scope of the Oberly and Washington Terrace Improvements project may be added to or subtracted from depending on various factors including funding, schedule, and other constraints and opportunities.
The project is planned to be completed by a Construction Manager at Risk.

The A/E shall conduct a criminal history check (“Background Check”) for each A/E, subconsultant/subcontractor employee that will have regular access to the work site in accordance with the background check requirements set forth in Florida Statute Section 373.6055.
Prior to allowing an A/E, subconsultant/subcontractor employee regular access to the work site, the A/E shall submit to the City's Design Manager an affidavit certifying that each such employee is qualified to regularly access the work site in accordance with Florida Statute Sections 373.6055(2), (3)(b) and (3)(c). If any A/E, subconsultant/subcontractor employee’s Background Check identifies criminal convictions or other criminal history factors that disqualify that employee from regular access to the work site, A/E shall not allow that employee to have regular access to the work site, and an appeal process is not available. In the event A/E becomes aware that any A/E, subconsultant/subcontractor employee has been arrested or convicted for disqualifying offense, A/E shall immediately remove that employee from the work site.
