Based on this review, CONSULTANT will identify existing resources that can be used for the <br />Post -Phase 1 water quality monitoring program -- both to satisfy Consent Decree requirements, <br />and to further the goal of LTCP modification - as well as additional resources needed to fully <br />satisfy the program requirements. Results of the task will be documented in a brief technical <br />memorandum including a general description and map of the existing and additional resources <br />required, along with budgetary estimates of the costs for procurement of equipment, performance <br />of monitoring, and analysis and reporting of data. The memorandum will also include an updated <br />plan for Quality Assurance/Quality Control of the data to be collected. <br />Task 4.2.2 Deliverable: Technical Memorandum — Existing and Additional Resources Needed <br />for Post -Phase 1 Water Quality Monitoring <br />Task 4.2.3: Feasibility Study of Real -Time Continuous E. Coli Monitoring Technology — If <br />authorized by CLIENT, CONSULTANT will perform an evaluation of the potential for using <br />new technologies for real-time, continuous measurement of E. coli within the St. Joseph River. A <br />part of the evaluation will include investigation of field locations in South Bend for potential <br />installation and deployment of the technology with CLIENT staff. CONSULTANT will prepare <br />a brief technical memorandum summarizing the available technologies, applicability for <br />monitoring E. coli in South Bend, recommended locations for deployment, and a budgetary cost <br />estimate for the City of South Bend to implement this technology. CONSULTANT will present <br />key findings of the feasibility study to CLIENT staff at a meeting in South Bend. <br />Task 4.2.3 Deliverable: Technical memorandum on feasibility of real-time continuous E. coli <br />measurement technology in the City of South Bend. <br />Task 4.2.4: Develop a Post -Phase 1 Water Quality Monitoring Program Implementation Plan — If <br />authorized by CLIENT, CONSULTANT will use outputs from'rasks 4.2.1, 4.2.2 and 4.2.3 along <br />with comments received from the CLIENT as the basis for developing a detailed Post -Phase I <br />Monitoring Program Implementation Plan, including a Sampling and Analysis Plan (SAP) and a <br />Quality Assurance Plan (QAP), prepared in accordance with USEPA guidance. The SAP will <br />function as an operation manual for the Post Phase I Monitoring program. It will include detailed <br />monitoring equipment specifications, sampling logistics, samples handling, and chain of custody <br />procedure, sampling location details, field forms, criteria for initiating sampling, and contact <br />information for key participants. The QAP will document the planning, implementation, and <br />analysis procedures for the sampling elements in this program, including specific quality <br />assurance and quality control goals and activities. These documents will define specific plans <br />and estimated costs for collection of rainfall, sewer flow monitoring, and water quality data, <br />including descriptions of: <br />o Location, type, frequency of monitoring and/or sampling <br />o Configuration of monitoring, sampling equipment <br />o Equipment or materials that need to be procured <br />o Site modifications required to support installation, use, maintenance of equipment <br />o Monitoring program schedule and responsibilities matrix <br />o Data QA/QC Procedures <br />o Data Analysis/Reporting Plan <br />o Collection System Model Calibration Plan <br />o Health, Safety, Security, and Environment (HSSE) Protocols <br />20180417 <br />TO_04 LTCP Negotiation Suppod 20180417.docx <br />
