Task Order No. 0759b with Hydro Logic, Inc. for Well Monitoring and Aquifer Testing 2012TASK ORDER NO. 07596
Pursuant to the
MASTER AGREEMENT FOR PROFESSIONAL SERVICES
BETWEEN
CITY OF MERIDIAN (OWNER) AND HYDRO LOGIC, INC (HYDROGEOLOGIST)
This Task Order is made this 15t day of June, 2012 and entered into by and between the City of
Meridian, a municipal corporation organized under the laws of the State of Idaho, hereinafter
referred to as "City", and accepted by (HYDRO LOGIC. INC), hereinafter referred to as
"Hydrogeologist" pursuant to the mutual promises, covenant and conditions contained in the
Master Agreement (Category 6a) between the above mentioned parties dated December 6,
2011. The Project Name for this Task Order 0759B is as follows:
CITY OF MERIDIAN
Well Monitoring and Aquifer Testing 2012
PROJECT UNDERSTANDING
In order to gain greater understanding of the characteristics of Meridian's aquifer system,
which is the sole source of potable water for the City, and to better utilize and protect this
important resource, the City has engaged in building test wells that can also be used as
monitoring wells. The City has been collecting data from these wells for twenty years. The
value of long-term monitoring data to the City could be very great for future supply planning
and water rights issues.
This Task Order provides for continued collection of data from Meridian's monitoring wells and
collection of data in coordination with aquifer /pumping tests by a qualified Hydrogeologist.
This project also includes assembly and synthesis of this data into reports.
SCOPE OF WORK
TASK 1.1 -CITY GROUND WATER LEVEL MONITORING
Hydrogeologist will measure, maintain, keep secure, document, plot, and report on the City's
ground water level monitoring network consisting of 12 individual monitoring sites and 39 tube
wells.
The Owner will provide access to conduct the measurements.

Hydrogeologist will make monthly visits (a loop) to all monitoring stations for purposes of
measuring aquifer pressures in the City's monitoring network. Hydrogeologist will also inspect,
repair, and secure as necessary the locking security enclosures using the Hydrogeologist's
own locks. The Hydrogeologist, and not the City, is wholly responsible for maintaining and
securing the network of wells and to ensure that the above-ground aquifer pressures (flowing
artesian wells) are contained and that the monitoring wells are not leaking. During the winter
months, the Hydrogeologist will ensure that the flowing wells are pressurized sc that the water
levels in the wells are below ground to prevent freezing and subsequent cracking of the PVC
monitoring wells. Hydrogeologist shall enter the measured water levels into acomputer-based
spreadsheet program for plotting and presentation to the City in an annual report.
DELIVERABLES:
Report of measured water levels will be compiled and submitted to the City by January 31St for
the previous calendar year monitoring.
TASK 1.2 -AQUIFER TESTING
At the City Project Manager's direction, the Hydrogeologist will conduct and report on long-
term, multiple-well aquifer tests using the City's equipped production wells and or other wells
that may have a hydraulic connection, hydrogeologic connection or other significance to the
City. Hydrologist will coordinate with the Water Department to manipulate the City's pumping
in the vicinity of the aquifer tests.
DELIVERABLES:
For each test conducted, a comprehensive report will be provided that will include pre-test
trend data, drawdown measurements, and apost-test recovery period lasting, in total, from
one to two months in duration for all wells measured. Reports will be interpretive in nature
and describe the measured hydraulic interconnection across the aquifer system and derive
aquifer coefficients of transmissivity and storativity for use in future numerical modeling of the
system. All work will be carried out with an eye toward the future spectre of conjunctive
administration of surface and ground water as a single resource and protection of the City's
portfolio of municipal water rights.
TASK 1.3 -REPORT
At the City Project Manager's direction, Hydrogeologist will process, synthesize, present,
interpret, and report on the long-term record of water monitoring for the City.
DELIVERABLES:
Long-term groundwater monitoring report.
ASSUMPTIONS
~, City staff will ensure that Hydrogeologist has access to City facilities.
