(Series of 2017)
A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF ASPEN,
COLORADO, APPROVING AN AMENDMENT TO AN EXISTING
CONTRACT BETWEEN THE CITY OF ASPEN AND DEERE AND AULT
CONSULTANTS INC. TO ANALYZE THE POTENTIAL USE OF IN-SITU
RESERVOIRS AS A COMPONENT OF ASPEN'S INTEGRATED WATER
SUPPLY, AUTHORIZING THE CITY MANAGER TO EXECUTE SAID
CONTRACT ON BEHALF OF THE CITY OF ASPEN, COLORADO.
WHEREAS, the City, as a municipal water provider, must plan responsibly
for the future water needs of its customers, and must develop a legal, reliable
water supply to meet those demands; and,
WHEREAS, the City operates an integrated water system to provide a safe,
legal and reliable water supply to its customers; and
WHEREAS, on-going development of Aspen's Integrated Water System is
necessary to ensure Aspen's future water supply; and,
WHEREAS, City Council has directed staff to investigate alternative
storage options; and,
WHEREAS, the City believes in-situ reservoirs have potential to augment
or replace proposed surface storage; and,
WHEREAS, additional work has been identified to further analyze the
potential use of in-situ reservoirs, which may include some open water storage;
and,
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF
THE CITY OF ASPEN, COLORADO,
That the City Council of the City of Aspen hereby amend its existing
contract with Deere and Ault Consultants, Inc. in the amount of$116,000, and that
this Resolution hereby authorize the City Manager to execute said agreement on
behalf of the City of Aspen.
INTRODUCED, READ AND ADOPTED by the City Council of the City of
Aspen on the 10th day of July, 2017.

Additional Scope of Work Contract Addendum
Supplier Deere & Ault Consultants, Inc.
Contract Number 2017-041 Date June 30, 2017
Project: Evaluation of the potential to incorporate in-situ reservoirs as a component of Aspen's
Integrated Water System
Work Completed by Date: October 31, 2017 Amount: $116,000.00
The Added Scope of Work shall be appended to the original contract agreement dated March 27,
2017 and approved by City Council on March 27, 2017, Resolution #60. The amended SOW
and fee will be reviewed by City Council on July 10, 2017 via Resolution#102. All terms and
conditions apply.
SCOPE OF WORK FOR RESERVOIR PRE-FEASIBLITY INVESTIGATIONS
Based on our in-situ screening study, we have developed the following scope to perform pre-
feasibility investigations for storage projects. The scope will primarily consist of feasibility level
site investigations, a conceptual layout and documentation in a memorandum. These
investigations will provide data to better define the engineering geologic conditions at the site.
We will use existing LiDAR topographic data for the conceptual layout, so no surveying is
included. Full feasibility level analysis and reporting, if necessary, would be performed in a later
phase.
Task I —Project Management
This task is reserved for project management tasks including meetings, correspondence and
contracting. Most correspondence will be phone conversations and conference call meetings to
discuss the status of the work. This task also includes two engineers to attend two meetings in
Aspen, one with City Council and one to interview any gravel miners in the vicinity.
Task 2—Reconnaissance Level Engineering Geologic Mapping
For this task, we will conduct reconnaissance level geologic mapping of the site and nearby
vicinity. We will identify and observe any rock outcrops or soil exposures in the area. We
understand some gravel deposits in the area may contain boulders, so if adequate exposures are
found, we will conduct a boulder count to estimate the locations and maximum size of boulders
in the deposit. We have budgeted for approximately two days of work to complete this task.
Task 3— Geotechnical Investigations
We will conduct feasibility level geotechnical investigations at the site. These investigations will
include drilling five to six borings, excavating five to eight test pits and performing laboratory
testing on soil and rock samples. The borings will provide information on depth to bedrock, the
approximate location of any boulder layers and permeability data for the bedrock. We will also
install nested piezometers to investigate the hydrogeologic conditions at the site. The test pit
excavations will be planned look for fine-grained soils that could be used for embankment or
slope liner construction as well as the potential for supplemental fines for slurry wall
construction. A qualified geologist will observe, log and sample the borings and test pits. Select
samples collected from the borings and test pits will be submitted to a soils testing laboratory for
index tests, including: gradation, fines-content, Atterberg limits, moisture content and density.
We will subcontract a driller and an excavator operator and call the Utility Notification Center of
Colorado to locate any utilities that may exist prior to digging.
Task 4—Conceptual Layout
This task will involve a conceptual layout of a reservoir at the site. We will consider in-situ
storage as well as open water storage. We will use an existing LiDAR topographic survey for
this work, so a survey is not needed at this time. This task will include the following items:
• Conceptual layout including an elevation-area-capacity curve and water delivery
infrastructure.
• A geologic profile, showing existing foundation conditions.
• Potential volumetric calculations.
We will develop a pre-feasibility level engineer's opinion of the expected cost of construction of
the conceptual reservoir, including engineering, permitting and contingency.
Task 6—Memorandum
We will summarize the results of our pre-feasibility investigation in a concise memorandum.
The document will include summary logs of the borings and test pits, the plan and profile of the
conceptual layout and the preliminary cost estimate. Because full feasibility level analysis will
not be performed, our recommendations will be limited.
