Procurement. Law. Administrator. ClerkofCommission Cover Memo Item # 4 Attachment number 1 Page 1 of 4 Item # 4 Throughout the Savannah Harbor TMDL process, it was clear that Southeastern Natural Sciences Academy research, supported in part by the CSRA TMDL group, played a pivotal role in provid- ing crucial information to regulatory agencies and basin stakeholders. That data was used to calibrate and validate the river model. Without that data, gaps in information could have proven more costly than have been realized thus far. In addition, the CSRA group would not have had an opportunity to critically address the regulatory modeling approach and the data upon which that model was developed. Further studies supported by the CSRA TMDL group, specifically related to Long Term Bio- chemical Oxygen Demand (LTBOD) dynamics within discharges and within the main-stem river, will be used to broaden discussions concerning modeling efforts and assumptions inherent to the model. Preliminary data from the LTBOD study indicate that further discussions are needed re- garding the method in which LTBOD information is analyzed and incorporated into the model. Additionally, the absolute impact of CSRA dischargers relative to non-point source contributions between Augusta and the harbor should be evaluated further. It is clear that having a long term, continuous water quality and water quantity dataset is impera- tive to making informed decisions about water resource issues. General water quality parameters such as dissolved oxygen, pH, temperature, specific conductance, and turbidity, as well as river discharge measurements (in critical areas where USGS gauges do not exist) throughout the Mid- dle and Lower Savannah River Basins provide important, basic information while providing a continuous dataset upon which other import research can be conducted. Such a dataset is critical to providing support for future decisions that will impact the water quality and water quantity issues within the Savannah River. Some of the most pressing issues may still be ahead of us and include the following: •Interbasin Transfers o The effects of interbasin transfers are not yet known. It is imperative to determine what the impacts of less water within the Savannah River Basin will be. A com- prehensive approach to this question is essential to determine the physical, chemi- cal, and biological parameters of the river. •Changes in water resource management related to USACE hydropower projects o The impact of drought on the basin was a recent concern and created disagree- ment between above and below dam stakeholders. Drought is most likely an issue that will be long-lived so decisions as to “how much water the river needs” in or- der to balance economic vitality and a healthy river ecosystem will be fundamen- tal.. •Future Total Nitrogen and/or Phosphorus NPDES limits o Throughout the DO TMDL discussions it was clear that future regulation will be- gin to target specific nutrients which are believed to contribute to DO loss within the river. Those TMDLs will most likely include Total Nitrogen (as opposed to just an ammonia limit which is the current target) and Phosphorus. Both TMDLs Monitoring Proposal: Southeastern Natural Sciences Academy 2010 Attachment number 1 Page 2 of 4 Item # 4 have been implemented in other watersheds throughout the country in an effort to improve dissolved oxygen conditions. •Impacts of changes in water quantity and water quality on aquatic organisms within the river o Decreases in river discharge produce physical, chemical, and biological altera- tions which could have impacts on river ecosystem stability. Continuous monitor- ing throughout the basin provides a data backbone upon which other research can be conducted in order to assess the degree of the impacts to individual aquatic species; the underpinning of water quality. Investment in the future Future decisions require continuous, long term datasets. Those data sets also have to be contem- porary because constant actions (urbanization, deforestation, technological improvements for wastewater processes, etc.) within a river basin produce different effects on river processes (Ac- tion Reaction). While long term, continuous datasets are critical, how we use the data needs to be evaluated as well. Modeling of ecological systems was a necessity in the early days of water resource regulation because the technology did not exist to provide low-cost, continuous data- sets. The technology is now available to provide near-real time data for many water quality pa- rameters and the number of those parameters increases regularly. Reason dictates that complete reliance upon modeling is an antiquated approach to managing and understanding our water re- source issues. Integration of continuous water quality data into our approach to water resource management is the only way to decrease the total reliance of modeling in management decisions. Your continued support of those monitoring efforts is needed. Southeastern Natural Sciences Academy is seeking a three year commitment at $150,000 per year to continue the river monitoring program that the Academy originally developed with your support in 2006. We propose to conduct the following activities over the funded study period: •Continuous water quality monitoring o Multiparameter sondes will continue to collect data (temperature, specific con- ductance, pH, DO, and turbidity) at 15 minute intervals at locations established in 2006 (RMs 215, 190, 185, 179, 149, 119, 61, and 27 as well as in Butler Creek) •Long term biochemical oxygen demand (LTBOD) assessments o The Academy will perform two LTBOD assessments per year of several main- stem river locations (collected according to travel time) and will analyze two LTBOD samples per year on effluent samples of those dischargers participating in the study Monitoring Proposal: Southeastern Natural Sciences Academy 2010 Attachment number 1 Page 3 of 4 Item # 4 •Nutrient mass flux assessments o In conjunction with the LTBOD assessments (more if time and funds permit), the Academy will determine sources and sinks of Total Nitrogen (Organic Nitrogen, Nitrate, Nitrite, and Ammonia) and Total Phosphorus (Organic Phosphorus and Orthophosphate) within the Middle and Lower Basins of the Savannah River. •Model sensitivity analysis o The Academy will perform a sensitivity analysis on the RIV1 model •Collaborate with GAEPD and EPA on continued model validation and calibration with new data o The Academy will work with GAEPD to incorporate the new data into updated model runs Monitoring Proposal: Southeastern Natural Sciences Academy 2010 Attachment number 1 Page 4 of 4 Item # 4 EngineeringServicesCommitteeMeeting 4/11/20111:00PM JohnH.Ruffin,Jr.Courthouse Department:ClerkofCommission Caption:DiscussthenameoftheJohnH.Ruffin,Jr.Courtho use.

The selection committee completed the evaluation of the Phase I and Phase II submittals. Johnson Laschober & Associates had the lowest fees, but they were found to have qualified their fee proposal and were therefore non-compliant. Based on this, Virgo Gambill Architects was the next firm in the rankings. The selection committee recommends that ARC begin contract negotiations with Virgo Gambill Architects.
