Page 1 This is Exhibit A, Scope of Basic Engineering Services, referred to in and part of the Short Form of Agreement between Owner and Engineer for Professional Services dated November 10, 2020 Scope of Basic Engineering Services Arcadis U.S., Inc. (Arcadis) is pleased to submit this scope of work to assist the City of South Bend in performing a regulatory review related to the Reciprocating Internal Combustion Engine (RICE) National Emission Standard for Hazardous Pollutants (NESHAP) which is applicable to emergency and non -emergency engines. Arcadis is well positioned to help the City with this analysis. Our air quality staff have considerable experience with RICE NESHAP through work with both municipal and industrial clients. The City recently installed four new diesel fired emergency generators at their Wastewater Treatment Plant (WWTP). All of the facility's existing generators have been taken out of service. The City has the following plans related to their generators: Maintenance Plan for Existing Emergency Stationary Compression Ignition Reciprocating Internal Combustion Engines (dated 5/2/2013) and RICE NESHAP Compliance Plan for Existing Non - Emergency Stationary Spark Ignition Reciprocating Internal Combustion Engines (dated 6/20/2013). In 2018, Arcadis provided suggested edits to these plans to ensure that they included all maintenance, monitoring, recordkeeping and reporting required by the RICE NESHAP for the generators. Arcadis also prepared a requirement matrix for the generators. The City has asked Arcadis to update these plans and matrix to reflect the requirements for the new generators that have been installed. Since the site no longer has any non - emergency generators, the RICE NESHAP Compliance Plan for Existing Non -Emergency Stationary Spark Ignition RICE is no longer needed. Under this scope of work, Arcadis will: • Request from the City of South Bend a list of all current generators, including the manufacture date and horsepower rating at the WWTP. • Revise the RICE NESHAP requirement matrix to outline the applicable requirements for the four new emergency generators. • Convert the existing Maintenance Plan for Emergency Stationary Compression Ignition RICE (dated 5/2/2013) into a Word file (currently the plan is in .pdf format) and modify the plan as needed to reflect the requirements for the new generators. Arcadis will provide the City with a draft document for their review. After receiving comments from the City, Arcadis will incorporate the edits and submit the finalized plan. Deliverables: • RICE NESHAP requirement matrix • Updated document: Maintenance Plan for Emergency Stationary Compression and Spark Ignition RICE Exhibit A, Scope of Basic Engineering Services EJCDC E-520 Short Form of Agreement Between Owner and Engineer for Professional Services.
