Task Order No.1
Predesign of Poplar Tree Reuse System and Permitting Assistance
Including Temperature and Mixing Zone Issues
Subject: ORIGINAL CONTRACT to furnish professional services to the City of
Woodburn, Oregon, for implementation of a Poplar Tree Reuse System and Permitting
Assistance Including Temperature and Mixing Zone Issues dated
Upon execution of this Task Order by the City of Woodburn (OWNER) and CH2M HILL
(CONSULTANT) in the space provided below, this Task Order will serve as authorization
for the CONSULT ANT to carry out and complete the services as set forth below in
accordance with the referenced Contract between the OWNER and the CONSULTANT.
A. Understanding, Approach, and Purpose
Over the past 4 years, Woodburn has invested a great deal of time and effort to develop a
well-conceived facilities plan to deal with two significant community challenges:
. Meeting total maximum daily load (TMDL) restrictions for the Pudding River, which
require the most stringent ammonia control in the Northwest
. . Providing adequate treabnent capacity to meet the community's existing residential and
industrial needs and future growth
Woodburn's approach to these complex issues has been innovative and sensitive to the
environment. A cornerstone to the OWNER's innovation is the implementation of a poplar
tree water reuse system. On the basis of a preliminary study and implementation of a
demonstration site in 1995 and 1996, it has been determined that the installation of a treated
wastewater land application system using poplars has several advantages. These
advantages include, but are not limited to:
. Providing an alternative to Pudding River discharge by land applying secondary
treated effluent during the critical discharge months of July and August
. Providing aesthetically pleasing habitat that is attractive to both wildlife and area
residents
. Production of a renewable resource
. Providing an opportunity for land application of biosolids and yard debris
The OWNER has requested the CONSULTANT to provide the services associated with the
implementation of a Poplar Tree Water Reuse System (Reuse System) and to provide
permitting assistance including addressing new temperature regulations. The OWNER has
retained Brown and Caldwell Consultants (BCC) to provide design and construction
services associated with their recommended upgrades to the Woodburn Wastewater
Treabnent Plant (WWTP). Both BCC and CONSULTANT teams will coordinate efforts to
provide a unified system. The key project objectives are:

objectives in three distinct phases:
· Phase I: Predesign of Poplar Tree Water Reuse System, Preparation of Management
Plan, Continuing Community Awareness and Involvement, NPDES Permitting
Assistance Including Temperature (Covered in this Task Order No.1)
· Phase II: Final Design, Bidding, Construction Management, and Startup Services
Associated with a Contractor Built System
· Phase ill: Operations, Maintenance, and Management Assistance
The objective of Phase I is to develop a predesign (approximately 30-percentfinal design) of
the full-scale Reuse System. The predesign will be done in close coordination with the
activities associated with the treatment facilities in order to ensure an optimum design and
proper basis for the design criteria. NPDES permit negotiations will be included as part of
the predesign. In addition to the predesign activities, an effluent and biosolids
management plan and temperature management plan will be prepared for submittal to
DEQ in support of the NPDES permit. Phase I will also include a continuing effort in
community awareness and involvement in the development of the Reuse System.

CITY OF WOOOBURN-POPLAR TREE WATER REUSE TASK ORDER NO.1
Task 1.1 Ongoing Coordination with Treatment Plant Design
The objective of this task is to ensure proper communications regarding the incorporation of
the Reuse System into the treatment plant design. Twelve meetings with CONSULTANT
representative or fewer meetings with two Consultant representatives are included with
BCC and OWNER staff to discuss project objectives, treatment strategies, predesign issues,
and final design criteria for the Reuse System. The OWNER may not need to attend all
twelve coordination meetings, but may do so at their discretion.
Specifically, coordination will be required regarding treatment strategies to determine final
flows and water quality to be used in sizing of the Reuse System site, and biosolids quantity
and quality used in the land application of the biosolids within the tree plantation. A
memorandum outlining flow and water quality issues will be prepared and sent to a BCC
and OWNER representative. The CONSULTANT will proceed with full-scale predesign
after receiving comments and direction from the OWNER.
Additionally, because the scope of the Reuse System entails each project component of the
system (from the pump station sump to the field), predesign issues such as yard piping and
electrical supply will need to be coordinated because these are also required for the Reuse
System. Electrical coordination considerations include but are not limited to ensuring
proper location of the service and sizing of the electrical demand associated with the Reuse
System. Yard piping includes the piping from the sump to the field, and will be partially
located within the treatment plant yard. Coordination issues include ensuring no
interference with other yard piping associated with the treatment plant. These coordination
issues will be ongoing.
Activities

Task 1.2 Preliminary Evaluation of Drainage Versus Increased Land Size
DEQ is currently in the process of determining whether or not the OWNER will have
problems with the temperature-based water quality criteria. There is a possibility the
OWNER will be required to reduce discharges during times in June through September
because of temperature concerns. The original design for the Reuse System was to
eliminate discharges in July and August. The land base required for the Reuse System
would need to be increased to address the June and September months of application
required or an underdrain system could be installed over the original land size that could
potentially collect the drain water for discharge back to the river system. It is believed the

CITY OF WOODBURN-POPLAA TREE WATER REUSE TASK ORDER No. 1
temperature of the water collected in the drains would be below the temperature water
quality criteria. In order to determine the appropriate alternative to implement, a
preliminary evaluation of a drainage system versus increasing the land acreage to deal with
the June and September months of irrigation will be conducted. An initial technical
feasibility evaluation of the drainage system will be performed. If the drainage system
appears to be technically feasible, a conceptual design of a drainage system for the original
land required will be developed and an order-of-magnitude construction cost estimate
performed. The land base required for the June and September flows will be determined
and order-of-magnitude costs for the Reuse System will be used to estimate the increased
construction costs for more land. Based upon the construction cost estimates, a comparison
between the two alternatives will be made and a recommendation formulated.

Task 1.3 Review Site Selection and Conduct Detailed Site Investigation
It is assumed that a preliminary site selection process is being performed by the OWNER
and the desired property for the full-scale Reuse System is under negotiations. The
objective of this task is to review the general area desired and perform a preliminary site
visit and detailed site investigation to identify the specific areas to be used. One meeting is
planned with the OWNER to discuss the desired planting locations at the site, overall land
siting objectives and criteria, and specific detailed investigations to be performed.
The detailed investigation is to collect data to characterize the site and define the criteria
relating to design, site monitoring elements, and operations of the site. The detailed
investigations will include field and laboratory analyses describing the soil (test pit
description, sampling and analysis, infiltration testing, data interpretation), groundwater
analyses (levels, gradients, and quality), and identification of utility interference. Soil test
pits will be dug with a backhoe (backhoe operations provided by the OWNER) at eight (8)
locations within the selected site. This number assumes the site is relatively uniform.
Twenty four (24) composite samples will be obtained from the pits and sent to a laboratory
for analysis of chemical and physical parameters and field capacity. Six (6) replicated
infiltration tests will be performed to determine the infiltration rate for the site. It is
assumed no wells will be installed at this time. Hydrogeologic investigations will be
performed by reviewing existing information.
Utility information will be obtained from existing as-built plans provided by the OWNER
and one site visit. It is assumed that detailed utility locations (profiles and potential
intefference) will be defined later during design activities. A base map will be prepared for

Task 1.4 Define Reuse Regulatory and Design Criteria for Poplar Tree Irrigation
The objective of this task is to document the overall design criteria for the full-scale Reuse
System to meet regulatory and permitting requirements. The overall design criteria for the
Reuse System will include project objectives and goals; code requirements; reuse permitting
requirements; OWNER's operational, maintenance, and other design preferences; treatment
plant pump station design information; operational data from the poplar tree water reuse
demonstration project; and standards for key facility components. It is assumed one
meeting is required between the CONSULTANT, OWNER, and DEQ staff to discuss
specific reuse permitting requirements. It is assumed that four meetings with the OWNER
will be required in preparation for meeting with DEQ.
Additionally, the allowable loading rate to the site will be discussed with the OWNER and
DEQ. High rate application over the existing nitrate plume is approved for evaluation by
the OWNER and will be reviewed with DEQ. It is assumed the two meetings will be
required to get a DEQ decision. The actual rate will be evaluated during predesign in
conjunction with agronomic rates to show the sensitivity of site size to these two loading
rates. The predesign includes the cost for developing water balances for the high rate,
equipment layout and sizing, and meetings with DEQ.
An additional meeting will be held with the CONSULTANT and OWNER to go over the
OWNER's operational, maintenance, and other design preferences; review preliminary
design criteria information on sizing of land; demonstration project results; and standards
for key components of the system. A final technical memorandum will be prepared to
document the final criteria to be used in the design of the system. This memorandum will
be distributed to OWNER staff for their information.

Task 1.5 Predesign Activities, Documents, and Cost Estimates
The objective of the predesign activities is to prepare the predesign (30-percent design)
drawings and cost estimates for the full-scale system. The CONSULTANT will draw upon
its in-depth knowledge accumulated over the past 8 years from other systems and the
existing prototype at Woodburn to refine the characteristics of the Reuse System. Layout,
sizing, and material and equipment selection will be performed for each component in the
system. No specifications or standard details will be provided at this stage. The predesign
documents will be developed for two construction phases: Phase I for the existing treatment
plant capacity of 3.3 million gallons per day (mgd) and Phase II for the remainder capacity
at buildout up to 5.1 mgd. Based u'pon the final layout and sizing, the CONSULTANT will
prepare schematic design sheets for the pipeline and application distribution system, pump
and filtration system, biosolids application system, electrical system, and monitoring and
control system.
The future WWTP facilities will have ultraviolet (UV) disinfection in place of the existing
chlorine contact chamber. Predesign of the Reuse System pump station will need to
consider a pumping station in parallel with the UV facility. The Reuse System will be
designed to use chlorine and UV disinfection. In addition, sodium hypochlorite will be
needed for periodic cleaning of the irrigation system lines. Coordination with BCC will be
required for proper location and connection to the planned facilities. A budget level cost
estimate will be prepared from the predesign sheets and an implementation strategy will be
presented for final development of the system.
. As part of the pre design of the Reuse System, the CONSULT ANT will perform an
alternatives analysis for long-term beneficial reuse of the liquid biosolids (Class B) on the
planned 100 acres near the plant from the facultative lagoon planned for theWWTP
expansion. It is assumed that three alternatives will be evaluated (Alternative I-Separate
irrigation system; Alternative 2-Liquid spreading; Alternative 3-Dry cake spreading) and
will address the amount of biosolids that can be reused on the planned 100 acres near the
plant. The potential biosolids application into the effluent irrigation system may be
addressed in a future scope of services contract. It is assumed the solids removal facilities,

day tank, and booster pump at the day tank are included in BCC's contract. BCC will
provide biosolids quantities and quality for this analysis.
An analysis of dry cake bioso1ids will be conducted for interim use. This assumes the
interim solids application will be reused on the planned 100 acres near the plant.
Application of dry cake biosolids is assumed to be by manure spreader only. The City's
existing manure spreader will be compared with a smaller manure spreader for optimizing
tree spacing and overall cost-effective management.
A draft predesign report will be prepared for the OWNER'~ review and DEQ submittal. It
is assumed that only one review period is required to finalize the report. After the review
process, appropriate comments will be incorporated into a final predesign report. Ten
copies of the draft and final will be provided. The predesign will draw heavily on the
Woodburn prototype system (prototype), using design criteria as revised based on
prototype operations, maintenance, and monitoring and DEQ input. Design criteria and
assumptions of the predesign are identified in Table 1. These criteria may change during
predesign. Meet with OWNER to initiate the evaluation, meet to discuss draft, and meet to
review final report.

Task 1.8 Soil Moisture and Properties Collection Improvements
The objective of this task is to calibrate the time-domain reflectometry (TDR) probes at the
demonstration site to actual soil moisture. To do this, the bulk density and gravimetric
(weight/weight) moisture content of the soil must be determined. This must be performed
throughout the 8-foot profile. Two soil pits will be dug, and 20 undisturbed soil cores (two
replications per TDR depth interval) from each pit will be taken and sent to the lab for
moisture content and bulk density testing. A reading from each probe will be made at the
same time the samples are collected to correlate the TDR readings with the actual
volumetric moisture content of the soil. Soil moisture release curves and saturated
hydraulic conductivity of the undisturbed soil cores will also be determined. It is assumed

· Define roles and responsibilities between CONSULTANT and OWNER Volunteer
Task 3.2 Development of Interpretative Signs/Displays
Interpretative signage/display at the poplar demonstration plant site will provide
information about the unique natural treatment process. The environmental and economic
value of the project will be explained to provide a destination for school groups,
environmental organizations, and other service organizations as well as for individual
citizens. The CONSULTANT will combine its technical and creative capabilities to develop
interpretative signage and a weatherproof literature holder. The signs will be prepared in
English, Spanish, and Russian. Framework support for the signs will be provided by and
installed by the OWNER staff. We propose the installation of two signs in three colors
approximately 6 feet by 4 feet with metal enamel painted surface designed to be weather
and vandal resistant and require little maintenance.

Task 3.3 Development of Outreach Material
Outreach materials will be prepared for WWTP neighbors, county commissioners, county
permits, state coordination, school use, and general public awareness campaigns that will
enhance environmental understanding by students and the general public. Understanding
the information leads to a trusting relationship between the citizenry and the OWNER as
the continuation of the poplar project is supported. The attitudes and opinions of local
residents/neighbors surrounding the poplar plantation demonstration project are
particularly important. It is these people who, if misinformed, can develop antagonistic
attitudes toward the project. Recognizing the complexity and sensitivity of potential
project stumbling blocks is therefore of critical importance. Likewise, it is important not to
alarm the community surrounding the poplar plantation site. Understanding of public
health issues is integral to the neighbors' acceptance. To gain the confidence and trust of

project neighbors, we must clearly and completely address neighbor concerns without
creating concerns by our initiatives. Therefore, we propose a community tour and
workshop to engage area residents in assisting us to develop meaningful materials. If
citizens are given meaningful tasks to perform they are more likely to engage and assist the
project.
Specific outreach materials that will be prepared are:
. Curriculum material to be designed for Woodburn schools showcasing the water reuse
approach selected by the OWNER as a choice to improve the environment of the
Pudding River and the community as a whole. This material will be designed to work
synergistically with the interpretative signage.
. Fliers/ outreach reports for dissemination of key information to newspapers and the
general public. This material will be prepared for weather proof literature holders to be
included with the interpretative signage.
. Video to be used on local cable access, at schools, and at the WWTP office, providing a
general overview of the issues and innovative aspects of the Reuse System

To negotiate permit conditions, review DEQ modeling results, and discuss permit review
comments, it is assumed that attendance at up to eight (8) DEQ meetings will be required.
Meeting notes will be summarized and distributed to attendees. It is assumed that
meetings with OWNER staff to prepare for the DEQ meetings will also occur.
NPDES permit application support documentation addressing temperature, mixing zone
dilution waiver, mixing zone using full width of stream, mass load increase, and metals
effects on fish and Pudding River will be provided. Support includes.iield survey, Oregon
Department of Fish and Wildlife (ODPW) and interagency meetings, and environmental
assessment of Pudding River. Support documentation includes Pudding River field work
(at the outfall location), and aquatic impacts assessment. A biological study to address the
mixing zone using the full width of the Pudding River for dilution will focus on whether or
not the mixing zone will impede upstream anadromous fish passage in areas downstream
from the existing effluent outfall, based on existing ODPW classification of this segment of
the Pudding River as supporting anadromous fish passage, but not containing documented
use of potential anadromous fish spawning and rearing habitat. The study will place
particular emphasis on salmonids. It is assumed that the Biological Assessments pursuant
to the Endangered Species Act will not be required. Background information on the
Pudding River will be compiled. Consultations with ODPW and DEQ staff will be
conducted by telephone. The data collected will be analyzed in terms of dilution waiver,
mass load increase, temperature, mixing zone, and specific metals. A draft and final
technical memorandum will be prepared summarizing the results The technical
memorandum will be approximately 20 to 30 pages.
This analysis is based on the following assumptions:
1. The analysis contains conceptual fish mitigation
2. No aquatic resource sampling needs to be conducted
3. A water quality monitoring program is not included
4. Access to the properties, during the field work, is facilitated by the City
5. No environmental modeling is required
6. No review of the lMDL model will be conducted
7. Any water quality sampling will be conducted by the City
8. Field survey is reconnaissance only, similar to modified ODPW field surveys.
The draft permits developed by DEQ will be reviewed. It is assumed there will be three (3)
permit iterations, and three (3) meetings with City staff concerning comments. Written
comments will be provided. One Public Hearing and one EQC meeting concerning the
Woodburn permit will be attended. Other meetings related to the permit and design will be
attended. It is assumed up to five (5) miscellaneous meetings with the City will occur.
A draft Surface Water Temperature Management Plan will be prepared assuming discharge
to the poplar tree plantation in lieu of demonstrating that the beneficial uses of the receiving
stream would not be impacted or affected. (This task would be based on an allowance.
This is the first plan in the state to be submitted to DEQ and the level of effort cannot be
guaranteed at this time.) Coordination with other agencies is included in this allowance.
The surface water temperature management plan will be developed to the extent that
budget is available.

Task 5.5 High-Rate Irrigation Evaluation
The 1995 annual report recommended upgrades to the demonstration site. One upgrade
was to test the feasibility of applying higher than agronomic rates of water over the site. In
1997 the east block will be irrigated up to 100 percent higher than the agronomic rate. No
modifications to the existing sprinkler irrigation system are proposed except that it will be
relocated. The high-rate irrigation will be accomplished by increasing the irrigation time of
the east block. Irrigation will occur in alternating on/off cycles, evenly spaced over 24.
hours. On the west block, irrigation will also occur in alternating on/off cycles, evenly
spaced during the day, but over a 12-hour period.
Irrigation schedules will be adjusted over the course of the season to address the high-rate
application test in the east block. In addition to the six agronomic rate schedule
adjustments allotted for the irrigation system, up to four high-rate irrigation schedule
changes may be made over the course of the irrigation season. The consultant will advise
the owner in irrigation schedule changes.
The amount of water applied to the tree system in the high-rate irrigation area will be
documented on a monthly basis by downloading operations data from the central control
