planning and engineering services to the Waste Management Services Department; and

WHEREAS, the Client and ATS now desire to enter into Supplemental Agreement No. 1 to include
additional planning and engineering services and to extend the agreement date through June 30, 2015.
NOW THEREFORE, it is mutually agreed to amend the original Professional Service Agreement as
follows:
I. PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The project is to provide planning and engineering services to assist the Waste Management
Services Department. Assistance to the Waste Management Services Department is not
supervisory and will not include responsibilities of the operational aspects of the Department.
This project will extend through the end of the Client's fiscal year 2015, to June 30, 2015.
II. SCOPE OF SERVICES
The work to be performed by ATS will include work, materials, equipment and supplies
necessary to continue to provide the services described in Tasks 1 through 8 of the original
agreement (shown below) through FY 2015, in addition to additional work described in Tasks 9
through 11:
1. Assist in evaluating existing records to establish the current costs for various activities
performed by the Waste Management Services Department. For purposes of the task,
Waste Management Services include Wastewater and Solid Waste Collection:
a. The current Wastewater Services activities include wastewater treatment,
sanitary sewer collection system maintenance and flood control. The
breakdown of these costs for these activities will include estimates for the cost
for each of the above areas for both residential/commercial flows and
industrial flows. This information will be helpful in evaluating proposed
industrial expansions, economic development opportunities and rates.
b. The current Solid Waste Collection Service activities include the regular
garbage collection services, recycling, yard waste, large item pick-up, and
neighborhood clean-ups. The costs of these activities will be determined from
the existing records so that the Council can evaluate the costs and benefits of
the various programs in looking toward future system improvements and

establishing rates. The information will also be used in determining the
features to be included in and the benefits of the long-standing Solid Waste
Transfer Station project for the Client.
2. Provide liaison with the City Council regarding Waste Management Services issues.
This task will include attending Council meetings, committee meetings and other public
meetings to discuss issues relating to Waste Management Services, when necessary.
3. Provide liaison with Regulatory Agencies associated with Waste Management
Services. The agencies currently involved in these services include the Iowa
Department of Natural Resources (IDNR), the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)
and the Army Corps of Engineers (USACE).
4. Assist in pursuing funding opportunities with various potential funding sources. This
task will include reviewing potential grant and/or loan opportunities and assist in
preparing grant and/or loan applications which may benefit the Client in Waste
Management Services activities.
5. Assist in developing a Capital Improvements Plan for Waste Management Services,
including projects needed to meet regulatory requirements, resolve existing problems,
and maintain existing programs and services. The Capital Improvements Plan will
provide a means to estimate future costs which may be used in evaluating bond
schedules, funding opportunities and rates.
6. Assist the Client in promoting "Regionalization" for Wastewater Treatment. The
Client's wastewater treatment facilities have capacity to treat additional flows and
loadings and could benefit from expanding treatment to other communities in the Cedar
Valley. This task will evaluate the project needs, costs and potential benefits of
expanding services to other communities and implementing the recommendations of
the Regional Plan.
7. Develop a priority system for implementing improvements in the Client's Sanitary
Sewer Collection System. The existing system experiences significant flow increases
during wet weather conditions. The need to reduce the flows has been a long-standing
need and the Client has taken significant steps in reducing these extraneous flows in
the past. Significant improvements remain to reduce wet weather flows to stay within
the system capacity. Sanitary sewer improvements are needed in the public right-of-
way and on the private property side to reach the goal of eliminating sanitary sewer
overflows and sewer back-ups. This task will assist in prioritizing the sanitary sewer
improvements and developing a long-range plan to implement the needed
improvements. In addition, this task will assist the Client in developing a program and
policy to address Private Source Infiltration and Inflow sources for future and existing
portions of the sanitary sewer system.
8. Coordinate closely with the other city Departments (Engineering and Finance) in
developing the Client's Waste Management Services Capital Improvements Plan,
Priorities and Funding issues.
9. Assist the Client's WPCF staff in developing and implementing the Capacity,
Management, Operation and Maintenance (CMOM) Program for the wastewater
treatment and collection system(s).
10. Assist the Client in developing and implementing an ordinance to eliminate extraneous
flows from the sanitary sewer system, including footing drains and sump pump
connections.
