I. Introduction.

Park City, Utah—encompassing 18 square miles in southwest Summit County—has a population approaching 8,500 and an elevation ranging from 6,600 to 10,000 feet. To comply with the

Clean Water Act, the City began implementing Municipal Separate Storm Sewer System (MS4) permit practices in July 2016 to mitigate pollutant runoff from storm drains and snowmelt.

The City's stormwater system spans two watersheds and utilizes gutters, grates, inlets, pipes, culverts, and detention/retention ponds. This network features 39 miles of piping, 31 miles of earthen channels, and over 1,600 inlet boxes. Together, these conveyances collect and direct stormwater and snowmelt into two natural streams or allow it to percolate into the local aquifer.

Park City maintains a Stormwater Master Plan, last updated in 2014. The City intends to select a consultant to review and thoroughly update the City’s Stormwater Master Plan.

II. Scope of Project.

1. Hydrology and Hydraulic Modeling

• Update essential field data from City’s GIS for modeling, such as pipes, culverts, and open channels on the main drainages through the City. This information will aid in identifying existing deficiencies.

• Identify deficiencies in GIS data needed for City collection to promote accurate modeling.

• Prepare hydrologic models for current and known future development conditions.

• Identify system deficiencies given different model conditions. Report flows and volumes for all deficient conditions.

• Prepare analysis sections of the report and submit a draft for City review.

• Organize the proposed improvements by those to be completed by the City, future developers, and those that would be good candidates for funding through other sources, including FEMA BRIC.

• Prepare report and submit for City review

2. Stormwater Master Plan Report

• Update and prepare a GIS map of the existing storm drain system, including state, private, and public owned systems within City boundaries from updated GIS data.

• Update and prepare a map of creek systems.

• Forecast future stormwater capacity needs.

• Update and prepare a conceptual drainage system design master plan.

• Determine, analyze, prioritize, and recommend major stormwater facilities improvements.

• Identify and create phased Capital Improvements Plan needed to address current deficiencies in the stormwater system and projects needed to serve the City at build-out.

• Provide preliminary cost estimates for Capital Improvements Plan.

• Provide Operation and Maintenance plan for existing system.

3. Mitigation Measures and Reporting

• Gather data from previous plan and other sources, such as hydrology information, modeling, drawings, reports, digital elevation and terrain data, etc.

• Identify problem areas from previous plan through close coordination with the City.

Develop a map showing these areas and data gathered from previous projects and other sources.

• Prepare concept project exhibits.

• Prepare preliminary cost estimates.

• Prepare preliminary Benefit Cost Analysis.

After execution of a contract, all submittals will be treated as public records in accordance with the requirements of GRAMA unless otherwise claimed by the

B. Modification and Waiver. To be effective, any modification to this Agreement or to the

Agreement will be effective unless it is in writing and signed by the party granting the waiver (in the case of PCMC, by an individual authorized by PCMC to sign the waiver). A waiver granted on one occasion will not operate as a waiver on other occasions.

E. Severability. The parties acknowledge that if a dispute between the parties arises out of this Agreement or the subject matter of this Agreement, it would be consistent with the wishes of the parties for a court to interpret this Agreement as follows: (1) with respect to any provision that it holds to be unenforceable, by modifying that provision to the minimum extent necessary to make it enforceable or, if that modification is not permitted by law, by disregarding that provision; (2) if an unenforceable provision is modified or disregarded in accordance with this section, by holding that the rest of the

Agreement will remain in effect as written; (3) by holding that any unenforceable provision will remain as written in any circumstances other than those in which the provision is held to be unenforceable; and (4) if modifying or disregarding the unenforceable provision would result in failure of an essential purpose of this

Agreement, by holding the entire Agreement unenforceable.

F. No Non-Party Rights. Nothing in this Agreement is intended to grant rights of any kind to any non-party or create third-party beneficiary rights of any kind.

G. Force Majeure. For purposes of this Agreement, a Force Majeure Event means any event or circumstance, regardless of whether it was foreseeable, that was not caused by that party and that prevents a party from complying with any of its obligations under this Agreement, but a Force Majeure Event will not include any strike or labor unrest, an increase in prices, a change in general economic conditions, or a change of law. A party that is prevented by the occurrence of a Force Majeure Event from performing any one or more obligations under this Agreement will not be liable for any failure or delay in performing those obligations, on condition that the non-performing party uses reasonable efforts to perform. The non-performing party shall promptly notify the other party of the occurrence of a Force Majeure Event and its effect on performance.

Thereafter, the nonperforming party shall update the other party as reasonably necessary regarding its performance. The nonperforming party shall use reasonable efforts to limit damages to the other party and to complete its full performance under this Agreement.

Each party is signing this Agreement on the date stated opposite that party’s signature.

BUSINESS CONFIDENTIALITY REQUEST FORM

(Business Confidentiality Claims under Utah’s Government Records Access and Management Act (“GRAMA”), Utah Code § 63G-2-309)

A claimant MUST submit a redacted and non-redacted version of their proposal. The entire proposal may NOT be redacted. PCMC will not redact a proposal on behalf of a claimant if they fail to upload a redacted copy of their proposal.

I request that the described portion of the record provided to Park City Municipal Corporation be considered confidential and given protected status as defined in GRAMA.

Name:

Address:

Description of the portion of the record provided to Park City Municipal Corporation that you believe qualifies for protected status under GRAMA (identify these portions with as much specificity as possible) (attach additional sheets if necessary): ______________________

The claim of business confidentiality is supported by (please check the box/boxes that apply):

( ) The described portion of the record is a trade secret as defined in Utah Code § 13-24-2.

( ) The described portion of the record is commercial or non-individual financial information the disclosure of which could reasonably be expected to result in unfair competitive injury to the provider of the information or would impair the ability of the governmental entity to obtain the necessary information in the future and the interest of the claimant in prohibiting access to the information is greater than the interest of the public in obtaining access.

( ) The described portion of the record would cause commercial injury to, or confer a competitive advantage upon a potential or actual competitor of, a commercial project entity as defined in Utah Code § 11-13-103(4).

REQUIRED: Written statement of reasons supporting a business confidentiality claim as required by Utah Code § 63G-2-305

(1) –(2) (attach additional sheets if necessary):

NOTE: Claimant shall be notified if the portion of the record claimed to be protected is classified as public or if the determination is made that the portion of the record should be disclosed because the interests favoring access outweigh the interests favoring restriction of access. Records claimed to be protected under this business confidentiality claim may not be disclosed until the period in which to bring the appeal expires or the end of the appeals process, including judicial appeal, unless the claimant, after notice, has waived the claim by not appealing the classification within thirty (30) calendar days. Utah Code § 63G-2-309(2).
