The anticipated tasks include: Hydrologic Analysis - Producing a new Hydrologic Report for the Madsen Creek Drainage Basin. Identifying, reviewing and updating the Madsen Creek drainage basin characteristics. Performing hydrologic modeling of drainage basin to identify peak runoff flows needed for analysis of the existing downstream drainage systems, and the design and evaluation of drainage system improvements. King County modelled the basin using the HSPF model in the early 2000's. The basin model, files, and information from previous King County studies may be available to use as a starting point for the new hydrologic model and report. There may also be calibration information from a King County stream gage station on Madsen Creek. The basin model may need to be revised to account for the new developments in the basin and east of the Low Flow channel. The consultant will provide paper and electronic copies of the Hydrologic Report and modeling files. HSPF or an equivalent hydrologic model acceptable to the City may be used. Surveying— Perform a topographic survey of Madsen Creek drainage system from the Madsen Creek Sediment Basin to the Cedar River. The survey will provide the information needed for the hydraulic analysis of the existing drainage system, and base maps for alternative analysis and preliminary design and analysis of proposed improvements to the drainage system. The survey should include the following elements: - Madsen Creek Sediment Basin (including pond elevations below water level) located about 1,100 feet south of SR-169 (see Figure 2), - the high flow bypass channel from the sediment basin to the Cedar River, - the ditch along the south side of SR-169 adjacent to Wonderland Estates, - the concrete culverts under SR-169, - the Madsen Creek channel north of SR-169, through the CMP culvert under 149th Ave NE, - the Madsen Creek channel through Ron Regis Park from 149th Ave NE to the Cedar River, - the overflow ditch and drainage system on the east side of 149th Ave from the CMP culvert, to the north end of 149th Ave NE, through the culverts, channel and CB's that connect it to the High Flow Bypass Channel just south of the Cedar River, - the Madsen Creek Low Flow Channel from the sediment basin to the east around the soccer field to the culvert that crosses under the High Flow Bypass Channel, - all culverts in the various parts of the drainage system elements including invert elevations, top elevations, sizes, materials, slopes, - any other significant features such as driveway crossings over the roadside ditch on 1491h Ave NE, top and bottom elevations of the crossings, the bridge in Ron Regis Park, existing utilities including type, size, and invert elevations, fences, power poles, etc., - portions of the residential properties at 15214 and 15202 149th Ave NE where flooding has occurred. The survey will include periodic cross -sections of the open channel drainage systems as needed to define the capacity of the drainage systems and identify critical locations. The consultant will be responsible for obtaining any right -of -entry forms or permissions needed for the survey from the property owners.

The City standard plans sheet size (22"x34") will be used for plan sheets. AutoCad 2018 or a similar recent version will be used. Hydraulic Analysis—Performohydrau|icana|ysis of the various elements of the existing drainage system to determine the flow capacity of the systems, identify and quantify overflow locations and flows, the level and amount of flooding, and the causes of flooding in the system. The analysis will include determining the stage, storage, and discharge from the Madsen Creek Sediment Basin through the existing culverts to the low flow and high flow channel. Drainage reports from new development east of the Low Flow Channel may be used for flows from those areas. The consultant will provide paper and electronic copies of the Hydraulic Report and modeling Environmental The consultant will provide paper and electronic copies of the Environmental Survey Report and Permitting Analysis — Identify and evaluate future permitting needs and requirements for future project design, permitting, and construction. The Permitting Report should include sections for each alternative design considered inthe Preliminary Design task. The work should provide a basis for evaluating the potential permitting considerations for the alternatives, and for more detailed work for a future phase. The consultant will provide paper and electronic copies of the Permitting Report and files. � Preliminary Design and Analysis —Usingtheinformationdevelooed from the previous tasks identify and analyze a range of alternatives to reduce flooding in the problem areas, increase the flow capacity of the drainage systems, and provide for fish accessibility and habitat as may be required by permitting agencies. The Preliminary Design and Analysis may include the following alternatives and tasks: - Alternatives may include short-term improvement to address the current flooding problems and long-term alternatives to provide more comprehensive solutions. - Alternatives may propose use of property owned by King County north of SR-169, and potential buyout of residential property affected by flooding byKing County. *:\File Sys$WP - Surface Water rnojects\SwP-2r'Surface Water Projects kz��3976 MadsenCk-Phase1\110oRFp|nfo\1104 RFpmrnns\z Alternatives may include rebuilding parts of the existing drainage system to increase their flow capacity and reduce flooding, relocating parts of the Madsen Creek drainage system such as relocating Madsen Creek to the east side of 149th Ave NE, relocating Madsen Creek to the High Flow Bypass route on the north side of SR-169, and other potential alternatives. - Analyzing the efficiency of the existing Madsen Creek Sediment Basin will be included. Part of the proposed alternatives may include increasing the size and efficiency of the sediment basin, providing better flow control diversion to the channels, and provide fish accessibility. The first stage of the Preliminary design work will be used to identify alternatives and determine the capacity and feasibility of the alternatives. The potential alternatives may need to be discussed with the City and King County. A preliminary cost estimate should be developed for each alternative. The consultant will evaluate the alternatives and rank them using the project goals of reducing flooding, need for property acquisition, cost, and environmental and permitting requirements. The consultant will produce a draft report for the first stage of the Preliminary Design, and will review the alternatives and rankings with the City. The City will select which alternatives to proceed to the second stage of the preliminary design. The draft report will be finalized. The second stage of Preliminary Design will involve more detailed design and analysis of the selected alternatives, include initial plan layout and design. Hydraulic modeling and analysis will be performed on each alternative to determine the flow capacity of the design and its effectiveness in reducing flooding in the problem areas. A more detailed cost estimate will be performed. Environmental and permitting conditions and considerations will be included. A draft report will be reviewed with the City, revised as needed, and finalized.
