SUBJECT:Ap p ro ve Wellhead Pro tec tion P lan Part 2 Agreement
DATE:May 23, 2016
INTRODUCTION
At the Ap ril 25, 2016, meeting, part one of the wellhead protectio n p lan was pres ented to the board at a
p ublic inp ut meeting. T his meeting wrapped up part one of the wellhead protec tio n p lan update. On April
28, 2016, s taff and Barr Engineering met with s taff fro m the Minnes o ta Dep artment o f Health (MDH) to
b egin part two of the plan up d ate. Bas ed on the original s ched ule, part two of the plan up d ate was to b e
completed by Novemb er of 2016.
DISCUSSION
The meeting with MDH o n Ap ril 28th was very p ro d uc tive and info rmative. Several items c ame out o f that
meeting related to part two o f the p lan update:
Staff req ues ted a completio n d ate extens io n fro m No vember o f 2016 to No vember o f 2017. This
req uest was b as ed on the s ubstantial d elay in review of p art o ne b y MDH. MDH staff felt this was
reas o nab le, and we have begun the formal req uest for extension. It s hould be noted that we do not
intend to take until Novemb er of 2017 to c omplete the p art two up date. Our go al is to complete it b y
March o f 2017.
Bas ed o n the type o f wo rk req uired to c o mp lete p art two , s taff is rec ommend ing that we enlis t the
s ervic es o f Barr Engineering to help us c omplete it. S taff at Barr spec ializes in gathering the required
information related to potential c o ntaminant s ources within the wellhead p ro tec tion area. City s taff
d o es not have this level of s p ecialization. S taff at Barr also has experienc e with what types o f
p ro tec tio n meas ures actually have a meaningful impac t o n the protection of o ur s o urc e waters b as ed
o n their extens ive involvement in wellhead protectio n in multip le c o mmunities .
If the extens io n is granted (whic h p reliminary indic ations say it will), we wo uld have the o p p o rtunity to
ap p ly for a grant in S ep tember which c ould help defray the cost of up d ating p art two of the plan.
As d is cus s ed at the meeting in April, part two of the plan is really the most imp o rtant p art when it comes to
trying manage our wellhead p ro tec tion areas. We want to d evelop a plan that will have c lear, impac tful items
that will work to minimize the potential of co ntaminatio n within the areas .
BUDGET IMPACT
As s hown in the attached proposal, the cost o f up d ating p art two of the plan will not exceed $27,805 witho ut
p rio r autho rizatio n. T his cost c an p o tentially b e reduced b y as much as $10,000 if the grant applic ation in
Septemb er is approved .
ACTION REQUESTED
Approve the attac hed agreement with Barr Engineering to assist the city with c o mp letion of p art two of the
wellhead protec tion plan up d ate.

Attachment 1
Barr Engineering Project Understanding and Scope of Work for Preparing
Farmington Part 2 Wellhead Protection Plan Amendment
Currently, the Minnesota Department of Health (MDH) deadline for the City of Farmington (City) to
complete the process of amending their Wellhead Protection Plan (WHPP) is November 4, 2016. Barr
Engineering’s understanding is that the City will request a schedule extension from the MDH. Our
understanding of the project and the scope of professional consulting services for preparing the
amendment of Part 2 of the City’s Wellhead Protection Plan (WHPP) are described in the following
paragraphs.
Project Understanding
The development of Part 2 of a WHPP must be done according to the Wellhead Protection Rules. Per the
rules, Part 2 of the WHPP must include 1) an assessment of data elements relevant to the Plan, 2) an
inventory and mapping of potential contaminant sources within the Drinking Water Supply Management
Areas (DWSMAs) that were identified during development of Part 1 of the Plan, 3) a discussion of issues,
problems, and opportunities associated with the DWSMAs and the source water aquifers, 4) an
assessment of the impact on the public water supply wells of potential future changes in the DWSMA s,
5) identification of goals for the Wellhead Protection Program, and 6) development of management
strategies for addressing the identified potential contaminant sources.
Our scope of work presented below is based on our experience with developing Part 2 WH PPs. It is our
understanding that Scoping Meeting No. 2 with the MDH will be held on April 28, 2016. Per the City’s
request, John Greer of Barr Engineering will attend that meeting. His cost for attending will be billed to
the City on a time and materials basis. The estimated cost is included in the project fee. The MDH will
issue Scoping Decision Notice No. 2 to the City within 30 days of the meeting. In the Scoping Decision
Notice the MDH will identify (based on the discussions at the Scoping Meeting): 1) the data elements that
must be assessed in Part 2 of the WHPP, 2) the potential contaminant source types that must be
inventoried during development of the plan amendment, and 3) the due date for completing Part 2 of the
WHPP. The MDH Planner that will be responsible for reviewing the Part 2 WHPP amendment is Karen Voz.
Once the Scoping Decision Notice is issued, Barr Engineering Co. will review it and notify you if anything
in the document results in a change to the scope defined herein.
Scope of Work Tasks and Assumptions
Barr Engineering’s scope of work is presented in the following paragraphs.
2
G:\JCG\Farmington\DRAFT Attachment 1 Farmington Part 2 WHPP Scope of Work_4-26-2016.docx
Task 1: Attend Scoping Meeting No. 2
As noted above, it is our understanding that the City has scheduled Scoping Meeting No. 2 with the MDH
for April 28, 2016. The meeting will be held in the City’s offices. Per the City’s request, Barr Engineering
staff will attend the meeting. We propose that this meeting also serve as the project kick off meeting.
We have assumed that the meeting will last no more than 2 hours.
Task 1 Cost: $720
Task 2: Potential Contaminant Source Inventory
The Wellhead Protection Rules require that potential contaminant sources within DWSMAs be inventoried.
Types of potential contaminant sources that must be inventoried depend upon the aquifer vulnerability
classifications within the DWSMAs. Since aquifer vulnerability within the Farmington DWSMAs ranges
from Low to Moderate, it is expected that the MDH will require that the potential contaminant sources
that must be inventoried include wells, storage tanks, and Class V wells. It is possible that not all potential
contaminant source types are present in the DWSMAs. It is also possible that the MDH will require that
additional potential contaminant source types be inventoried.
We have assumed that Barr will be responsible for compiling information on potential
contaminant source types in the DWSMAs from publicly available databases.
The MDH requires that the locations of a minimum of 25 of each type of potential contaminant
source present within the DWSMAs be verified during development of the Part 2 Plan. If there are
less than 25 of a particular type of potential contaminant source within the DWSMAs, the MDH
requires that all of the locations for that type of potential contaminant source in the DWSMA s be
verified. For our cost estimate, we have assumed that Barr Engineering staff will be responsible for
completing the location verifications for each type of potential contaminant source using GIS
mapping techniques and, if necessary, drawing on local knowledge of City staff. We have further
assumed that field verification activities such as windshield surveys, door to door surveys, or
mail/telephone requests for information from property owners will not be necessary. If the City so
chooses, we will limit the verification to 25 locations of each potential contaminant source type
during development of the Plan. If you prefer that City staff complete the location verification
during development of the Plan amendment Barr staff will provide guidance to City staff on how
to complete the location verifications.
We have assumed that if the City has in its possession any GIS files used in the preparation of
their existing Part 2 Wellhead Protection Plan that a copy of the GIS files will be provided to us.
Task 2 Cost: $5,410
Task 3: Wellhead Protection Plan Part 2 Preparation
Barr Engineering will prepare, in consultation with the City, an initial draft of the Part 2 WHPP amendment
for City review. After addressing any City comments on the initial draft, Barr will provide a copy of the
3
G:\JCG\Farmington\DRAFT Attachment 1 Farmington Part 2 WHPP Scope of Work_4-26-2016.docx
draft Part 2 WHPP amendment via electronic means (i.e., email or secure Internet download) to the MDH
for preliminary review.
Barr Engineering will review any MDH comments that come from the preliminary review of the draft Part 2
WHPP amendment, discuss the comments with City staff, make necessary changes to the draft that result
from MDH comments, and provide the City with CDs containing the draft Part 2 Plan that the City will
distribute to local governmental units (LGUs) whose jurisdictions overlap the DWSMAs. If requested, Barr
will also provide the City with a template for a transmittal letter that could be used by the City to send the
draft Part 2 Plan to the LGUs. Please note that the Wellhead Protection Rules require that the LGUs be
given 60 days to review the draft Part 2 Plan.
Barr Engineering will address, in consultation with the City, any comments received from the LGUs and
prepare a final Part 2 WHPP amendment. Copies of the final Part 2 Plan will be provided to the City on CD
for submittal to the MDH (note: the MDH requires submittal of six copies of the Part 2 Plan on CD; paper
copies will not be accepted). If you desire, Barr can submit the Part 2 WHPP amendment to the MDH for
approval on behalf of the City. Paper copies of the final Part 2 Plan amendment can be provided for Ci ty
use at an additional cost.
We have assumed that communications with City staff, including receiving and/or discussing
comments on the draft Part 2 WHPP, will occur via telephone and/or email.
We have assumed that a meeting with MDH staff to discuss any comments arising from the
preliminary review will not be necessary. If such a meeting is necessary we will attend on a time
and expenses basis over and above our budget for this scope.
We have assumed only one round of comments from the MDH and the LGU’s.
Task 3 Cost: $19,295
Task 4: Public Hearing
The Wellhead Protection Rules require that the WHPP be presented at a Public Hearing. The MDH
requires that the Public Hearing be held prior to submittal of the Part 2 Plan to the MDH for approval.
We have assumed that John Greer of Barr Engineering will present the Plan at the Public Hearing.
Task 4 Cost: $900
Task 5: Project Administration
This task includes completion of necessary project administrative tasks.
Task Cost: $1,480

G:\JCG\Farmington\DRAFT Attachment 1 Farmington Part 2 WHPP Scope of Work_4-26-2016.docx
Project Schedule
We have assumed that the plan development and submittal tasks identified above will be completed
within nine months of notice to proceed. This schedule assumes that preliminary MDH review of the draft
Part 2 WHPP will be completed within 30 days and that the public hearing will be held within 30 days after
the 60 day local unit of government review period.

beginning 10 days after invoice date at the rate of 1.5%
per month, but not to exceed the maximum rate allowed
by law.
4.3 If you direct us to invoice another, we will do so, but you
agree to be responsible for our compensation unless you
provide us with that person's written acceptance of the
terms of our Agreement and we agree to extend credit to
that person.
4.4 You agree to compensate us in accordance with our fee
schedule if we are asked or required to respond to legal
process arising out of a proceeding to which we are not
a party.
4.5 If we are delayed by factors beyond our control, or if the
project conditions or the scope of work change, or if the
standards change, we will receive an equitable
adjustment of our compensation.
4.6 In consideration of our providing insurance to cover
claims made by you, you hereby waive any right of offset
as to payment otherwise due us.
Section 5: Disputes, Damage, and Risk Allocation
5.1 Each of us will exercise good faith efforts to resolve
disputes without litigation. Such efforts will include a
meeting attended by each party’s representative
empowered to resolve the dispute. Disputes (except
collections) will be submitted to mediation as a condition
precedent to litigation.
5.2 We will not be liable for special, incidental,
consequential, or punitive damages, including but not
limited to those arising from delay, loss of use, loss of
profits or revenue, loss of financing commitments or
fees, or the cost of capital. Each of us waives against
the other and its subcontractors, agents, and employees
all rights to recover for losses covered by our respective
property/casualty or auto insurance policies.
5.3 We will not be liable for damages unless you have
notified us of your claim within 30 days of the date of
your discovery of it and unless you have given us an
opportunity to investigate and to recommend ways of
mitigating damages, and unless suit is commenced
within two years of the earlier of the date of injury or loss
and the date of completion of the Services.
5.4 For you to obtain the benefit of a fee which includes a
reasonable allowance for risks, you agree that our
aggregate liability will not exceed the fee paid for our
services or $50,000, whichever is greater, and you agree
to indemnify us from all liability to others in excess of
that amount. If you are unwilling to accept this allocation
of risk, we will increase our aggregate liability to
$100,000 provided that, within 10 days of the date of our
Agreement, you provide payment in an amount that will
increase our fees by 10%, but not less than $500, to
compensate us for the greater risk undertaken. This
increased fee is not the purchase of insurance.
5.5 If you fail to pay us within 60 days following invoice date,
we may consider the default a total breach of our
Agreement and, at our option, we may terminate all of
our duties without liability to you or to others.
5.6 If we are involved in legal action to collect our
compensation, you agree to pay our collection
expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees.
5.7 The law of the state in which the project site is located
will govern all disputes. Each of us waives trial by jury.
No employee acting within the scope of employment
shall have any individual liability for his or her acts or
omissions and you agree not to make any claim against
individual employees.
Section 6: Indemnification
6.1 Each of us will indemnify and hold harmless the other
from and against demands, damages, and expenses to
the comparative extent they are caused by the negligent
acts, omissions, or breach of contract of the
indemnifying party or of those others for whom the
indemnifying party is legally responsible.
6.2 To the extent that may be necessary to indemnify either
of us under Section 6.1, you and we expressly waive, in
favor of the other only, any immunity or exemption from
liability that exists under any worker compensation law.
Section 7: Miscellaneous Provisions
7.1 We will provide a certificate of insurance to you upon
request. Any claim as an Additional Insured shall be
limited to losses caused by our sole negligence.
7.2 This Agreement is our entire agreement, and it
supersedes prior agreements. Only a writing signed by
both of us making specific reference to the provision
modified may modify it.
7.3 Neither of us will assign this Agreement without the
written approval of the other. No other person has any
rights under this Agreement.
7.4 A writing may terminate this Agreement. We will receive
an equitable adjustment of our compensation if our work
is terminated prior to completion as well as our fees and
expenses on the basis agreed upon through the effective
date of termination.
7.5 We will not discriminate against any employee or
applicant for employment because of race, color, creed,
national origin, sex, religion, age, genetic information,
marital status, sexual orientation, gender identity, familial
status, disability, status with regard to public assistance,
membership or activity in a local human-rights
commission, or status as a protected veteran. We will
take affirmative action to ensure that applicants are
considered, and employees are treated during their
employment, without regard to those factors. Our actions
will include, but are not limited to notifications, hiring,
promotion or employment upgrading, demotion, transfer,
recruitment or recruitment advertising, layoffs or
terminations, rates of pay and other forms of
compensation, and selection for training or
apprenticeship. End of Standard Terms

DISCUSSION
The antennas that are us ed for wireless internet are s ub s tantially smaller in s ize than typ ical cell p hone
antennas and they d o no t req uire as much ground s p ace (if any) at the base of the to wers. Currently, o ur
