TO:  Honorable Town Board
FROM:  Jason Foote, Town Engineer
DATE:  February 23, 2026
SUBJECT:  Town Engineer re Proposal for Sewer Model Recalibration and SSES
  Re-Evaluation

Requested Action:  Attached for your review and approval, please find the Engineering
  services proposal from GHD for providing engineering services for the
  implementation of a permanent flow monitoring program, sewer model
  recalibration, and re-evaluation of the existing SSES Report for the
  Town’s sanitary sewer system.

  GHD’s engineering proposal is broken into four (4) separate tasks as
  follows:

  Task 1: Flow Metering
  Task 2: Model Recalibration
  Task 3: Alternatives Analysis
  Task 4: Reporting

  As part of Task 1, GHD will install 20 flow meters, 2 level sensors at
  overflow weirs, and 3 rain gauges for up to 4 months. Task 2 will
  involve the evaluation of the flow balance, calculation of I/I metrics for
  multiple rain events in each sewershed, recalibration of the sanitary
  sewer model, and quantification of the model calibration quality. Task 3
  will include the evaluation sewer system improvement alternatives that
  will mitigate sewer overflows. Task 4 will involve compiling the findings
  in a formal report.

  We are recommending that the Town Board approve Task 1 in the
  amount of $15,900, Task 2 in the amount of $149,300, Task 3 in the
  amount of $28,000, and Task 4 in the amount of $44,600.

  The costs for GHD’s engineering proposal will be paid primarily by the
  EPG of $100,000 and the remaining balance will be paid by the sewer
  budget.

  Upon your review and approval, please sign and return a copy of
  GHD’s attached proposal.

  Please let me know if you require any additional information.
