Manastash Bridge #76132 Replacement — Geotechnical Construction Support
Aspect will provide geotechnical support services during construction of drilled shafts for the
Manastash Bridge 476132 Replacement (Project) located in Kittitas County, Washington.
Aspect will review and respond to geotechnical -related contractor submittals and/or requests for
information before and during construction. It is assumed that Aspect will review and process up to
four (4) submittals or RFI's.
During drilled shaft construction (four total), an Aspect field representative working under
supervision of an Aspect licensed professional engineer will provide full time observation and
documentation of drilled shaft excavation and construction. The purpose of these observations is to
verify that soil/rock encountered are consistent with the basis of design, and geotechnical elements
of construction are completed in general accordance with the Project plans and specifications.
Aspect will prepare daily field reports (DFR's) documenting each day's observations, activities,
and any field recommendations. An Aspect licensed professional engineer will review the DFR and
provide daily project management duties until the end of the drilled shaft construction. We assume
drilled shaft construction observation will last up to 10 full days, depending on the contractor's
progress.
After completion of each drilled shaft, Aspect will review WSDOT-provided Crosshole Sonic Log
(CSL) test results for each shaft. Aspect will provide a conclusion as to the suitability of the
constructed shaft and will recommend whether the constructed shaft should be approved in a
memorandum.
At the conclusion of the project, Aspect will prepare and submit a summary report of geotechnical
observation and inspections. All of Aspect's DFR's will be included in this report.
Assumptions
• Engineering direction to the Contractor regarding geotechnical engineering design issues
will be communicated through Jacob's project engineer or the County.
• Each RFI or submittal will take 2 hours on average to process.
• Drilled shaft construction duration will be up to 10 full days.
O Materials testing for drilled shaft construction will be completed by others.
• Geotechnical questions and concerns by the County or contractor will be conveyed by
Jacobs' project engineer to Aspect, and vice versa.
+ Any additional geotechnical design support by Aspect, if needed, is not included.
Deliverables
0 Response to up to 4 submittals/RFI.
• Daily field reports from geotechnical site visits review by Aspect professional engineer.
• Memorandum presenting Crosshole Sonic Log (CSL) test result conclusions/opinions.
• Construction observation completion letter summarizing activities and documenting

DETERMINATION DOCUMENT (CONTINUED)
COMMUNITY INFORMATION
APPLICABLE NFIP REGULATIONS/COMMUNITY OBLIGATION
We have made this determination pursuant to Section 206 ofthe Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1973 (P.L. 93-234) and in accordance
with the National Flood Insurance Act of I968, as amended (Title XIII of the Housing and Urban Development Act of 1968, P.L. 90-448),
42 U.S.C. 4001-4128, and 44 CFR Part 65. Pursuant to Section 1361 of the National Flood Insurance Act of 1968, as amended,
communities participating in the NFIP are required to adopt and enforce floodplain management regulations that meet or exceed NFIP
criteria. These criteria, including adoption of the FIS report and FIRM, and the modifications made by this LOMB, are the minimum
requirements for continued NFIP participation and do not supersede more stringent State/Commonwealth or local requirements to which
the regulations apply.
We provide the floodway designation to your community as a tool to regulate floodplain development. Therefore, the floodway revision
we have described in this letter, while acceptable to us, must also be acceptable to your community and adopted by appropriate
community action, as specified in Paragraph 60.3(d) of the NFIP regulations.
COMMUNITY REMINDERS
We based this determination on the I -percent -annual -chance discharges computed in the submitted hydrologic model. Future
development of projects upstream could cause increased discharges, which could cause increased flood hazards. A comprehensive
restudy of your community's flood hazards would consider the cumulative effects of development on discharges and could, therefore,
indicate that greater flood hazards exist in this area.
Your community must regulate all proposed floodplain development and ensure that permits required by Federal and/or
State/Commonwealth law have been obtained. State/Commonwealth or community officials, based on knowledge of local conditions
and in the interest of safety, may set higher standards for construction or may limit development in floodplain areas. Ifyour
State/Commonwealth or community has adopted more restrictive or comprehensive floodplain management criteria, those criteria take
precedence over the minimum NFIP requirements.
We will not print and distribute this LOMR to primary users, such as local insurance agents or mortgage lenders, instead, the community
will serve as a repository for the new data. We encourage you to disseminate the information in this LOMB by preparing a news release
for publication in your community's newspaper that describes the revision and explains how your community will provide the data and
help interpret the NFIP maps. In that way, interested persons, such as property owners, insurance agents, and mortgage lenders, can
benefit from the information.
This determination is based on the flood data presently available. The enclosed documents provide additional information regarding this determination. If you have
any questions about this document, please contact the FEMA Map Information eXchange toil free at 1-877-336-2627 (1 -877 -FEMA MAP) or by letter addressed to the

LETTER OF MAP REVISION
DETERMINATION DOCUMENT (CONTINUED)
COMMUNITY INFORMATION
APPLICABLE NFIP REGULATIONS/COMMUNITY OBLIGATION
We have made this determination pursuant to Section 206 of the Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1973 (P.L. 93-234) and in accordance
with the National Flood Insurance Act of 1968, as amended (Title XIII of the Housing and Urban Development Act of 1968, P.L. 90-448),
42 U.S.C. 40014128, and 44 CFR Part 65. Pursuant to Section 1361 of the National Flood Insurance Act of 1968, as amended,
communities participating in the NFIP are required to adopt and enforce floodplain management regulations that meet or exceed NFIP
criteria. These criteria, including adoption of the FES report and FIRM, and the modifications made by this LOMB, are the minimum
requirements for continued NFIP participation and do not supersede more stringent State/Commonwealth or local requirements to which
the regulations apply.
We provide the floodway designation to your community as a tool to regulate floodplain development. Therefore, the floodway revision
we have described in this letter, while acceptable to us, must also be acceptable to your community and adopted by appropriate
community action, as specified in Paragraph 60.3(d) of the NFIP regulations.
COMMUNITY REMINDERS
We based this determination on the 1 -percent -annual -chance discharges computed in the submitted hydrologic model. Future
development of projects upstream could cause increased discharges, which could cause increased flood hazards. A comprehensive
restudy of your community's flood hazards would consider the cumulative effects of development on discharges and could, therefore,
indicate that greater flood hazards exist in this area.
Your community must regulate all proposed floodplain development and ensure that permits required by Federal and/or
State/Commonwealth law have been obtained. State/Commonwealth or community officials, based on knowledge of local conditions
and in the interest of safety, may set higher standards for construction or may limit development .in floodplain areas. If your
State/Commonwealth or community has adopted more restrictive or comprehensive floodplain management criteria, those criteria take
precedence over the minimum NFIP requirements.
We will not print and distribute this LOMR to primary users, such as local insurance agents or mortgage lenders; instead, the community
will serve as a repository for the new data. We encourage you to disseminate the information in this LOMB by preparing a news release
for publication in your community's newspaper that describes the revision and explains how your community will provide the data and
help interpret the NFIP maps. In that way, interested persons, such as property owners, insurance agents, and mortgage lenders, can
benefit from the information.
This determination is based on the Rood data presently available. The enclosed documents provide additional information regarding this determination. If you have
any questions about this document, please contact the FEMA Map Information eXchange toe free at 1-877-336-2627 (1 -877 -FEMA MAP) or by letter addressed to the
LOMC Clearinghouse, 3601 Eisenhower Avenue, Suite 500, Alexandria, VA 22304-6426. Additional h1formation about the NFIP is available on our website at

ACTION REQUESTED: Request to Approve a Resolution to Amend Jacobs Task
Order 1.03, Manastash Creek Bridge Replacement
BACKGROUND:
The existing Jacobs Engineering task order for support
services: Manastash Creek Bridge Replacement; does not
include drilled shaft observation from Aspect Consulting.
The drilled shafts are a potential construction claim item
owing to the geotechnical design in an assumed rock mass.
The $21,500 requested amendment places Aspect onsite
during drilled shaft operations. Allowing for rapid
decision-making during the drilling operation is expected to
minimize any potential claim risk.
INTERACTION:
Public Works
RECOMMENDATION:
Authorize the Chair's signature amending Jacobs Task
Order No. 1.03.
ATTACHMENTS:
Resolution with Task Order attachment.

AMENDING JACOBS ENGINEERING TASK ORDER NO. 1.03
WHEREAS: Public Works has an existing task order for Manastash Bridge Replacement
support services; and
WHEREAS: Public Works has determined that having geotechnical experts onsite during
drilled shaft construction is beneficial to the project and could limit potential
construction claims; and
WHEREAS: Amending Jacob's Task Order 1.03 in the amount of $21,500 requires Board of
County Commission authorization, increasing the task order amount to
$301,103.00; and
NOW, THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the Board of County Commissioners, in the
best interest of the public, does hereby authorize the Chair's signature amending Jacobs

Manastash Bridge #76132 Replacement— Geotechnical Construction Support
Aspect will provide geotechnical support services during construction of drilled shafts for the
Manastash Bridge #76132 Replacement (Project) located in Kittitas County, Washington.
Aspect will review and respond to geotechnical -related contractor submittals and/or requests for
information before and during construction. It is assumed that Aspect will review and process up to
four (4) submittals or RFI's.
During drilled shaft construction (four total), an Aspect field representative working under
supervision of an Aspect licensed professional engineer will provide full time observation and
documentation of drilled shaft excavation and construction. The purpose of these observations is to
verify that soil/rock encountered are consistent with the basis of design, and geotechnical elements
of construction are completed in general accordance with the Project plans and specifications.
Aspect will prepare daily field reports (DFR's) documenting each day's observations, activities,
and any field recommendations. An Aspect licensed professional engineer will review the DFR and
provide daily project management duties until the end of the drilled shaft construction. We assume
drilled shaft construction observation will last up to 10 full days, depending on the contractor's
progress.
After completion of each drilled shaft, Aspect will review WSDOT-provided Crosshole Sonic Log
(CSL) test results for each shaft. Aspect will provide a conclusion as to the suitability of the
constructed shaft and will recommend whether the constructed shaft should be approved in a
memorandum.
At the conclusion of the project, Aspect will prepare and submit a summary report of geotechnical
observation and inspections. All of Aspect's DFR's will be included in this report.
Assumptions
• Engineering direction to the Contractor regarding geotechnical engineering design issues
will be communicated through Jacob's project engineer or the County.
• Each RFI or submittal will take 2 hours on average to process.
■ Drilled shaft construction duration will be up to 10 full days.
Materials testing for drilled shaft construction will be completed by others.
• Geotechnical questions and concerns by the County or contractor will be conveyed by
Jacobs' project engineer to Aspect, and vice versa.
• Any additional geotechnical design support by Aspect, if needed, is not included.
Deliverables
Response to up to 4 submittals/RFI.
• Daily field reports from geotechnical site visits review by Aspect professional engineer.
• Memorandum presenting Crosshole Sonic Log (CSL) test result conclusions/opinions.
Construction observation completion letter summarizing activities and documenting
construction in accordance to geotechnical recommendations, or per approved changes.

COMMUNITY INFORMATION
APPLICABLE NFIP REGUL ATiON&COMMUNITY OBLIGATION
We have made this determination pursuant to Section 206 of the Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1973 (P.L. 93-234) and in accordance
with the National Flood Insurance Act of 1968, as amended (Title XIII of the Housing and Urban Development Act of 1968, P.L. 90.448),
42 U,S.C. 40014128, and 44 GFR Part 65. Pursuant to Section 1361 of the National Flood Insurance Act of 1968, as amended,
communities participating in the NFIP are required to adopt and enforce floodplain management regulations that meet or exceed NF1P
criteria. These criteria, including adoption of the FIS report and FIRM, and the modifications made by this LOMB, are the minimum
requirements for continued NFIP participation and do not supersede more stringent State/Commonwealth or local requirements to which
the regulations apply.
We provide the floodway designation to your community as a tool to regulate floodplain development. Therefore, the floodway revision
we have described in this letter, while acceptable to us, must also be acceptable to your community and adopted by appropriate
community action, as specified in Paragraph 60.30) of the NFIP regulations.
COMMUNITY REMINDERS
We based this determination on the I -percent annual -chance discharges computed in the submitted hydrologic model. Future
development ofprojects upstream could cause increased discharges, which could cause increased flood hazards. A comprehensive
restudy of your community's flood hazards would consider the cumulative effects of development on discharges and could, therefore,
indicate that greater flood hazards exist in. this area.
Your community must regulate all proposed floodplain development and ensure that permits required by Federal and/or
State/Commonwealth law have been obtained. State/Commonwealth or community officials, based on knowledge of local conditions
and in the interest of safety, may set higher standards for construction or may limit development in floodplain areas, Ifyour
State/Commonwealth or community has adopted more restrictive or comprehensive floodplain management criteria, those criteria take
Precedence over the minimum NFIP requirements.
We will not print and distribute this LOMB to primary users, such as local insurance agents or mortgage lenders; instead, the community
will serve as a repository for the new data. We encourage you to disseminate the information in this LOMB by preparing a news release
for publication in your community's newspaper that describes the revision and explains how your community will provide the data and
help interpret the NFIP maps. In that way, interested persons, such as property owners, insurance agents, and mortgage lenders, can
benefit from the information.
This determination Is based an the flood data presently available. The enclosed documents provide additional information regarding this determination. If you have
MY questions about this document, please contact the FEMA Map information exchange toll free at 1-877-336-2827 (1 -877 -FEMA MAP) or by letter addressed to the

COMMUNITY INFORMATION
APPLICABLE NFIP REGULATIONSICOMMUNITY OBLIGATION
We have made this determination pursuant to Section 206 of the Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1973 (P,L. 93-234) and in accordance
with the National Flood Insurance Act of 1968, as amended (Title XIII of the Housing and Urban, Development Act of 1968, P.L. 90-448),
42 U.S.C. 4001-4128, and 44 CFR Part 6S. Pursuant to Section 1361 of the National Flood Insurance Act of 1968, as amended,
communities participating in the NFIP are required to adopt and enforce floodplain management regulations that meet or exceed NFIP
criteria. These criteria, including adoption of the FIS report and FIRM, and the modifications made by this LOMR, are the minimum
requirements for continued NFIP participation and do not supersede more stringent State/Commonwealth or local requirements to which
the regulations apply.
We provide the floodway designation to your community as a tool to regulate floodplain development. Therefore, the floodway revision
we have described in this letter, while acceptable to us, must also be acceptable to your community and adopted by appropriate
community action, as specified in Paragraph 60.3(d) of the NFIP regulations.
COMMUNITY REMINDERS
We based this determination on the 1 -percent -annual -chance discharges computed in the submitted hydrologic model. Future
development of projects upstream could cause increased discharges, which could cause increased flood hazards. A comprehensive
restudy of your community's flood hazards would consider the cumulative effects of development on discharges and could, therefore,
indicate that greater flood hazards exist in this area.
Your community must regulate all proposed floodplain development and ensure that permits required by Federal and/or
State/Commonwealth law have been obtained. State/Commonwealth or community officials, based on knowledge of local conditions
and in the interest of safety, may set higher standards for construction or may limit development in; floodplain areas. If your
State/Commonwealth or community has adopted more restrictive or comprehensive floodplain management criteria, those criteria take
precedence over the minimum NFIP requirements.
We will not print and distribute this LOMR to primary users, such as local insurance agents or mortgage lenders; instead, the community
will serve as a repository for the new data. We encourage you to disseminate the information in this LOMB by preparing a news release
for publication in your community's newspaper that describes the revision and explains how your community will provide the data and
help interpret the NFIP maps. In that way, interested persons, such as property owners, insurance agents, and mortgage lenders, can
benefit from the information.
This determinatlon is based on the flood data presently available. The enclosed documents provide additional information regarding this determination. it you have
any questions about this document, please contact the FEMA Map Information eXchange tall flee at 1-877-336-2627 (1 -877 -FEMA MAP) or by letter addressed to the

KITTITAS COUNTY
DEPARTMENT OF PUBLIC WORKS
PUBLIC WORKS — BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS
STUDY SESSION STAFF REPORT
STUDY SESSION DATE: September 10, 2018
TOPIC: Weihl Road Report on Recent Letter Sent to Residents
ACTION REQUESTED: Direct Staff Prepare Road Improvement Enabling
Documents
LEAD STAFF:
Mark R. Cook
RECOMMENDATION:
Direct staff prepares RID enabling documents and return to schedule formation public
hearing.
BRIEFING SUMMARY:
• Recent outreach to residents results in four stating NO; two affirming YES.
• The four represent approximately six percent of the proposed district participants.
• Staff suggest preparing enabling legislation and returning to the Board with a
project schedule and list of action items.
BACKGROUND:
For the past several years, Public Works has been attempting to resolve long standing
access issues associated with Weihl Road. During a July study session, the Board
requested staff re -solicit potential district participants affirming their desire to move
forward with district formulation.
DISCUSSION:
The project appears to have wide support from potential district participants. The
formulation process requires noticing and scheduling a public hearing. Once the hearing
is complete, the Board can reject formulation, amend the district boundaries, or choose to
formulate the Road Improvement District as presented.
FISCAL IMPACTS:
The Board of County Commissioners is currently suggesting a Board contribution in the
amount of $274,000 is appropriate. District participants will share project costs of
$750,000 based on an equal benefit derived by each lot owner. Using an interest rate of
3% (three percent), 15 year cost recovery period and allocated project costs of $750,000 —
the resulting cost per year per lot is estimated to be $740/year.

Weihl Road Resident
Dear Weihl Road Resident:
='XTTZTgB CO
DEPARTMENT OF PUBLIC WORKS
Mark R. Cook, PE Director
For several years, Kittitas County Public Works has been working with area residents attempting
to improve Weihl Road and bring it onto the public road system. We have completed
engineering design and revised project costs. We have been discussing the potential forming a
Road improvement District (RID) for constructing improvements. The Kittitas County Board of
County Commissioners desires hearing from potentially impacted residents prior to proceeding
with RID formulation actions.
You may recall that we sent a letter to you in October, 2017 (attached). In that letter we
proposed a cost structure that would require approximately $740 per year for each property
owner over a 15 year cost recovery period. At that time, we received a majority of owner support
for the project. Final engineering results in a project cost of approximately $874,000 — well
above the previous cost estimate of $750,000.
The Board of County Commissioners recently committed to holding the previously identified
cost structure for benefitted property owners at the funding level identified in our October, 2017
letter. Maintaining that cost structure requires the Board to fund approximately $274,000 of
project costs (approximately 30%). This contribution allows us to maintain the cost structure we
presented in October, 2017.
Please contact me (Mark R. Cook) at 509-962-7523 if you are opposed to the Board moving
forward formulating the RID. We anticipate, in the absence of significant opposition, to
scheduling RID formulating actions in late August/early September 2018.

RE: Proposed Road Improvement District
Dear Resident:
Kittitas County Department of Public Works notices you that the Board of County
Commissioners has determined that it is in the interest of the County to initiate a Road
Improvement District (RID) for Weihl Road in the near future. The Board is required by
Washington State law to notice its intention to formulate the district by resolution. Following
this notice, we will send a separate notice to all residents advising of the meeting time and date
for passage of the resolution of intent to formulate. We will further explain the process in our
next notice to residents. Public Works has completed an improvement design for Weihl Road
and delivered a cost estimate to the Board of County Commissioners. We have also prepared a
preliminary financial plan supporting improvement construction. Cost estimates are provided
below for your consideration.
Welhl Road Improvement District Financial Plan
Total project cost
$
750,614.00
Board of County Commission contribution

150,000.00
Remaining improvement cost to residents

Proposed cost recovery period
15 years
Assumed interest rate

Previously, residents responded with a petition requesting formulation of the RID using an
estimated annual per lot assessment of $776 for a period of ten (10) years. Subsequently, the
Prosecuting Attorney Office determined that the roadway requires dedication onto the public

road system once improvements are completed. This decision has driven the project cost to the
current estimated $750,614. Attempting to maintain previous costs to benefited residents, the
Board of County Commission elects to contribute towards total project cost. The contribution
lowers the resident share to $600,614. Maintaining a ten (10) year cost recovery period results in
an annual lot cost of $1,035.75. Discussing the costs with several area residents suggests that the
annual cost is too high. Extending the cost recovery period to fifteen (15) years affords a reduced
annual payment of $740.09.
We are anxious to hear the community's response to our financial proposal — prior to moving
forward with Board of County Commission action. You may call me at: 509-962-7523 or send a
response to 411 North Ruby, Suite 1; Ellensburg, WA 98926. You may also email a response
to: mark. cook co.kittitas.wa.us.
