Fehr & Peers Subconsultant Agreement with Hauge Brueck Associates. LLC for the Saltworks Project <br /> • Memorandum summarizing performance of up to three available forecasting models, <br /> followed by determination by ERMT of appropriate model <br /> • Draft Setting/Existing Condition transportation section <br /> • Transportation data collection <br /> Task 6 Project Scoping #1 <br /> Task 6.4 Scoping Meetings <br /> Fehr & Peers staff shall participate in the planning of and presentation at the assigned public scoping <br /> meetings, providing input and insight regarding Transportation. This scope and fee assumes preparation <br /> for and attendance at one public scoping meeting /workshop regarding Transportation in February 2011 by <br /> two Fehr & Peers staff. <br /> Task 6.5 Scoping Report <br /> Fehr & Peers shall review the administrative draft scoping report. Fehr & Peers shall prepare a memo to <br /> HBA documenting their findings and recommendations related to transportation. <br /> Task 6.6 Scoping of Potential Alternatives Report <br /> The ECT shall prepare the Scoping of Potential Alternatives Report based on data collected during the <br /> scoping meetings. Fehr & Peers will perform preliminary screening of alternatives based on the analysis <br /> tools developed to date, and begin work preparing a more fully refined, calibrated forecasting model and <br /> traffic operations analysis model. This task may include preliminary forecasts of trip generation for <br /> alternatives, regional MOEs, transit ridership, and link -level freeway and roadway analysis for various <br /> alternatives. <br /> Following selection of the appropriate model, as described in Task 4.8, Fehr & Peers will perform the <br /> model refinement and validation required for the project's environmental review. Fehr & Peers will <br /> refine the selected travel demand forecasting model, with particular attention to providing adequate static <br /> and dynamic validation, adequate detail within the study area, and a mode choice module sensitive to <br /> transit. Fehr & Peers has assumed approximately three days per week for approximately two months of <br /> staff time will be dedicated to accomplishing this task; depending on the approach taken and the degree of <br /> refinements necessary, there is a reasonable chance that this effort will require additional staff time <br /> beyond what is budgeted prior to the next opportunity for contract amendment. In this case, Fehr & Peers <br /> will work with the ERMT to identify opportunities for application of contingency funds toward this task. <br /> If funds are not available, Fehr & Peers will work with the ERMT to determine whether this task or other <br /> work can be postponed so that funds are applied to the most urgent tasks. (Note that the refinement <br /> cannot begin until the team has determined which model is the appropriate choice for use in this study). <br /> Once developed and approved by the ERMT, the forecasting model can be used for a number of purposes, <br /> such as an assessment of the relative regional impacts of various project alternatives (such as VMT), if <br /> appropriate, and the identification of project trip distribution, and the effects to the local and regional <br /> transportation system. Fehr & Peers will preform technical analysis to assist the development and <br /> screening of project alternatives. We have allotted up to 120 professional hours toward this task. <br /> Following completion of the screening process, we have assumed development of cumulative traffic <br /> forecasts (including both link -level and intersection turning movement - level) for up to three alternatives. <br /> However, this task does not include performing traffic impact analysis. <br /> Saltworks Project Task Order No. 001 Page 6 <br />
