7 Item 6 COMMISSION FILE NO: DATE INTRODUCED: January 9, 2017 INTRODUCED BY: REFERRED BY COMMISSION CHAIRPERSON TO: Executive Director (Signature on File in the Office of the Commission) Policy, Finance, and Personnel Committee RELATING TO: Agreement with the United States Army Corps of Engineers for the Upper Underwood Creek, Contract W21007E01 SUMMARY: The Commission is requested to authorize the Executive Director to execute a feasibility cost sharing agreement (FCSA) with the United States Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) for the Upper Underwood Creek, Contract W21007E01, in a total amount not to exceed $262,500. The Menomonee River Watercourse Management Plan includes a recommendation to perform up to 7,000 feet of concrete channel lining removal and rehabilitation of Underwood Creek and 5,700 feet of concrete channel lining removal and rehabilitation of South Branch of Underwood Creek. The Plan s limits are North Mayfair Road upstream to the Milwaukee/Waukesha County line for Underwood Creek and approximately West Bluemound Road upstream to West Schlinger Avenue for the South Branch of Underwood Creek. The concrete channel lining is a District asset that was installed in the 1960 s. The lining is significantly degraded and reaching the end of its useful life. USACE, in cooperation with the District, is proposing to perform a feasibility study of 12,400 lineal feet of Underwood Creek and South Branch of Underwood Creek from North Mayfair Road to West Schlinger Avenue. This feasibility study requires a 35% proportionate share from the non-federal sponsor (in this case, the District). The feasibility study will recommend a final alternative to perform the above work and will issue a determination as to whether there is a Federal interest in the project. If it does, the project would qualify for USACE sponsorship and funding (with a District cost share), and USACE would then proceed with design and construction.

8 SUMMARY (Cont d) Agreement with the United States Army Corps of Engineers for the Upper Underwood Creek, Contract W21007E01 The FCSA is the first step in this partnership opportunity. It sets forth terms and conditions, including how costs will be shared between USACE and the District. The FCSA only commits the District to a cost share for the feasibility study; a future agreement would be needed to commit the District to funding for the design and construction. USACE has requested that the District obtain authorization to enter into the FCSA by February The proposed FCSA is funded by USACE in accordance with Section 506 of the Water Resources Development Act of Under the proposed agreement, USACE will fund 100% of the first $100,000 and 65% of the cost thereafter, while the District will fund the remaining 35% of the study costs above $100,000. The District s share will not exceed $262,500 and may be in the form of cash or in-kind contributions. In addition, the District will: Participate on the project coordination team, which oversees all aspects of the feasibility study, including providing comment and review of the study and related documents. Collect field data (e.g. survey, soil borings, wetland delineation). Assess the potential for contamination at the site. Provide comments on all project documents. USACE will: Participate on the project coordination team. Manage the project feasibility study in consultation with the District. Select and manage the consultants that USACE deems necessary. Provide the District the opportunity to provide comment and feedback. Provide progress reports to the District. In February 2016, the Commission approved executing a proposed FCSA for this same project in an amount not to exceed $200,000. USACE delayed entering into the proposed FCSA, and no agreement between USACE and the District was executed. USACE updated its project cost estimates, which resulted in a need to increase the District cost share to a total of $262,500. This authorization will replace the February 2016 authorization. 2

9 RESOLUTION Agreement with the United States Army Corps of Engineers for the Upper Underwood Creek, Contract W21007E01 RESOLVED, by the Milwaukee Metropolitan Sewerage Commission, that the Executive Director is authorized to execute a feasibility cost sharing agreement with the United States Army Corps of Engineers for the Upper Underwood Creek, Contract W21007E01, in a total amount not to exceed $262,500. 3

11 Item 7 COMMISSION FILE NO: DATE INTRODUCED: January 9, 2017 INTRODUCED BY: REFERRED BY COMMISSION CHAIRPERSON TO: Executive Director (Signature on File in the Office of the Commission) Policy, Finance, and Personnel Committee RELATING TO: Approval of the Updated Kinnickinnic River Watercourse Management Plan SUMMARY: The Commission is requested to approve the updated Kinnickinnic River Watercourse Management Plan (KKRWMP) as described below. According to MMSD Commission Policy , Watercourse Policy, the District may fund structural and nonstructural flood risk reduction measures where the District has assumed watercourse jurisdiction for flood management purposes. The KKRWMP currently identifies 448 structures located in the one percent annual probability floodplain (floodplain) along the District s jurisdictional watercourses within the Kinnickinnic (KK) River watershed. The KKRWMP currently consists of 10 different capital projects necessary to reduce the flood risk to the structures located in the floodplain and to meet overall plan objectives. In about 2009, the District began working on various initiatives toward resolving flooding on the KK River. In 2015, floodplain maps were updated, as existing floodplain maps were at least 20 to 30 years old. These updated floodplain maps now reflect changes in the watershed, modeling improvements, and, most significantly, increases in precipitation. With the updated floodplain map and other changes, there are now 221 new structures in the floodplain.

12 SUMMARY (Cont d) Approval of the Updated Kinnickinnic River Watercourse Management Plan Based upon the revised floodplain maps, public and stakeholder input, and engineering analysis and planning work detailed in a draft report developed under contract with GRAEF (Report titled Kinnickinnic River Watershed Flood Management Plan ), staff is now proposing to update the KKRWMP. In addition, the requested update reflects changes that have occurred outside of the GRAEF report. The updated plan has the following objectives: Reduce flood risk, Address public safety, Improve in-stream aquatic habitat, Improve stream channel aesthetics, and Leverage community objectives. Following are the proposed changes. KK River Estuary In December 2016, the Commission approved taking jurisdiction of the KK River Estuary. The KKRWMP is updated to include 27 flood prone structures within the KK River Estuary. These structures are all located in the City of Milwaukee. In 2017, staff will begin to develop alternatives and preliminary recommendations to reduce the flood risk to these structures. KK River Mainstem The KKRWMP currently identifies 282 flood prone structures on the KK River Mainstem. The proposed change amends the KKRWMP to add 48 additional flood prone residential structures, for a total of 330 flood prone structures on the KK River Mainstem in the City of Milwaukee. Currently, the KK River Reach 2 project consists of replacing the concrete channel lining from S. 6 th Street to S. 27 th Street with a more naturalized stream design, widening the stream from a top of bank width of 60 feet to approximately 200 feet, acquiring 83 structures between S. 6 th Street and S. 16 th Street to allow for the wider stream, and replacing five vehicular and four pedestrian bridges. There is no change for this stream reach. This update adds voluntary property acquisition or floodproofing of seven residential structures currently in the floodplain (within Reach 2). 2

13 SUMMARY (Cont d) Approval of the Updated Kinnickinnic River Watercourse Management Plan Currently, the KK River Reach 3 project consists of replacing the concrete channel lining between S. 27 th Street into Jackson Park with a naturalized stream design. The update adds two new elements: Increase the flow capacity of the KK River Parkway Bridge. Voluntary acquisition or floodproofing of three residential structures currently in the floodplain. The KK River Reach 4 project currently does not have specific recommendations. The update changes the name of the project from KK River Reach 4 to Jackson Park. The Jackson Park project scope now consists of: Lowering a portion of Jackson Park to provide flood storage; Removing 700 feet of concrete lined channel and 700 feet of corrugated metal culvert and replacing them with a naturalized channel; and Increasing flow capacity of the S. 43 rd Street Bridge. Lyons Park Creek The KKRWMP currently identifies 33 flood prone structures on Lyons Park Creek, all in the City of Milwaukee. The update adds 33 residential structures to the floodplain, for a total of 66 flood prone structures. The Lyons Park Creek project does not currently have a recommended project scope within the KKRWMP. The update proposes to increase the flow capacity of culverts located at the following four locations: W. Cleveland Avenue, W. Stack Drive, S. 57 th Street, and a culvert that extends from W. Bennett Avenue to W. Lakefield Drive. The update also adds replacing 3,000 feet of concrete channel lining with a naturalized channel from S. 57 th Street to the confluence with the KK River, north of W. Cleveland Avenue. 43 rd Street Ditch There are currently no flood prone structures identified on the 43 rd Street Ditch. The update adds nine flood prone commercial structures adjacent to the 43 rd Street Ditch in the Village of West Milwaukee. 3

14 SUMMARY (Cont d) Approval of the Updated Kinnickinnic River Watercourse Management Plan The current KKRWMP does not identify a project on the 43 rd Street Ditch. The update proposes a new 43 rd Street Ditch project to reduce the risk of flooding to commercial structures along S. 43 rd Street and roadway flooding at the intersection of S. 43 rd Street and W. Lincoln Avenue. The proposed project consists of increasing culvert capacity at S. 43 rd Street, W. Lincoln Avenue, and under the Union Pacific Railroad. The project also includes removing 600 feet of concrete-lined channel located between the two sets of culverts and creating a naturalized channel. Wilson Park Creek The KKRWMP currently identifies 130 flood prone structures on Wilson Park Creek in the City of Milwaukee. The update adds 144 residential and commercial structures to the floodplain, for a total of 274 flood prone structures. Currently, the Wilson Park Creek Reach 3 project consists of replacing the concrete channel lining with a naturalized channel from S. 6 th Street to W. Layton Avenue, increasing the size of undersized culverts at S. 5 th Street, and constructing a detention basin on land adjacent to the Central Steel & Wire facility. The update further proposes to: Increase the size of culverts at S. 6 th Street (Wilson Park Creek Reach 3). Perform voluntary acquisition or floodproofing of eight residential and commercial structures (Wilson Park Creek Reach 3). Create a new Wilson Park project, which consists of: o Lowering a portion of Wilson Park to provide flood storage. o Performing voluntary acquisition or floodproofing of two commercial structures currently in the floodplain. Add a new Wilson Park Creek Reach 4 project, which consists of replacing 3,900 feet of District-owned concrete-lined channel with a more naturalized channel design within the property limits of the General Mitchell International Airport between S. Howell Avenue and the Canadian Pacific Railroad. Villa Mann Creek There are currently no flood prone structures identified on Villa Mann Creek in the KKRWMP. The update adds nine flood prone residential and commercial structures on Villa Mann Tributary in the Cities of Greenfield and Milwaukee. The current KKRWMP does not identify an active or planned project on the Villa Mann Creek. The update adds a new Villa Mann Tributary Culvert Improvement project. The project scope consists of increasing the flow capacity of the culverts that extend from S. 27 th Street to the confluence with the Villa Mann Mainstem. 4

15 SUMMARY (Cont d) Approval of the Updated Kinnickinnic River Watercourse Management Plan The KK River Reach 2, KK River Reach 3, Jackson Park, and Wilson Park projects include the design and construction of park improvements to compensate Milwaukee County for impacts to park assets and the parkland as a result of the District s proposed work within the park areas. The park improvements included in the project will be defined in future memorandums of understanding between Milwaukee County and the District. The following table summarizes the changes to the plan: Total # structures in the floodplain (without District improvements) # structures no longer in the floodplain # structures remaining in the floodplain Existing Updated KKRWMP KKRWMP Projects Completed 1 3 Projects Underway 6 5 Future Projects 3 6 The attached maps show existing and updates to the general locations of structures in the floodplains and projects that are part of the KKRWMP. 5

16 RESOLUTION Approval of the Updated Kinnickinnic River Watercourse Management Plan RESOLVED, by the Milwaukee Metropolitan Sewerage Commission, that the updated Kinnickinnic River Watercourse Management Plan as described in the foregoing Commission document is approved and that the Executive Director is authorized to implement the updated plan, subject to Milwaukee Metropolitan Sewerage Commission budget approval. 6

20 SUMMARY (Cont d) Declaration of the Public Necessity and Approval of the Revised Acquisition Plat (Relocation Order) for the Kinnickinnic River Reach 2, Project W40002 An update to the Kinnickinnic River Watercourse Management Plan (KKRWMP) is also currently being considered by the Commission. As recommended in the updated KKRWMP, the District is expanding the Kinnickinnic River channel between 6th and 16th Streets to create additional flood flow capacity and to allow for the replacement of the existing concrete-lined channel with a more naturalized stream design. The expanded channel will reduce flood risk to over 300 residential structures identified within the one percent annual probability floodplain in the project area. The District will expand the top of bank width of the stream from 60 feet to 200 feet. Parcel #96 is owned by the Milwaukee Public Schools (MPS), via the City of Milwaukee, and is currently operated as Modrzejewski Park. The MPS Park area (approximately 20,000 square feet) identified within the plat is included within the proposed project limits of the stream. The only improvement within this area that will be affected by this action is a deteriorated asphalt cover confined within a chain link fence. District staff has had preliminary discussions with MPS. In addition, the District will need to relocate a City of Milwaukee combined sewer within the identified park area to accommodate the expanded channel. Previous spending authority is sufficient to acquire the requested property rights. 2

21 RESOLUTION Declaration of the Public Necessity and Approval of the Revised Acquisition Plat (Relocation Order) for the Kinnickinnic River Reach 2, Project W40002 RESOLVED, by the Milwaukee Metropolitan Sewerage Commission, that: 1. The revised acquisition plat (relocation order) as attached hereto and that identifies Parcel 96 is approved; 2. The Executive Director is authorized to approve future changes to the identified parcels and the addition of new parcels where they have a minor impact on the overall project and the land rights acquisition process; and 3. The Executive Director may accept and execute on behalf of the Commission all project related easement documents, memorandums of understanding, intergovernmental cooperation agreements, jurisdictional offers, awards of compensation damages, leases, purchase agreements, deeds of conveyance, permits, licenses, or any other related real estate documents. 3

37 BACKGROUND Approval of Contract P-2695, Greenseams Program Implementation for the Year 2017 MMSD has been implementing the Greenseams Program since This innovative program was designed to accomplish environmentally responsible flood management by permanently preserving critical floodplain areas. Undeveloped, permanently vegetated lands reduce future flooding risks by storing and draining water into the ground naturally. Greenseams also helps protect MMSD s structural flood management projects infrastructure investments worth hundreds of millions of dollars. The Greenseams Program makes voluntary purchases of undeveloped, privately owned properties in areas expected to experience major growth in the next 20 years. These sites contain water absorbing hydric soils typically found along streams, shorelines, and wetlands. To date, Greenseams has purchased 104 parcels totaling approximately 3,383 acres and restored 761 acres of land within its project boundary. Many of these purchases have been made in partnership with organizations such as the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources Knowles Nelson Stewardship Fund, Wisconsin Coastal Management Program, United States Fish and Wildlife Foundation, Fund for Lake Michigan, local land trusts, and local municipalities. Since 2001, the Greenseams Program has leveraged $10.3 million in grant funding. 2

38 KEY ISSUES Approval of Contract P-2695, Greenseams Program Implementation for the Year 2017 Project Description The Conservation Fund, a national land trust, has been implementing the District s Greenseams Program since 2001, when it was selected through a competitive request for proposal process. Greenseams supports environmentally sustainable flood management by preserving undeveloped floodplain areas, along with linear corridors of open space that allow streams, rivers, and the associated wetlands and floodplains to function as naturally as possible while accommodating stormwater and floodwater flows. In addition, properties that contain a minimum of five acres of stormwater trees are eligible for acquisition. Conserving such properties is complementary to constructing stormwater storage or detention measures and has the added benefit of providing public open space, which contributes to an improved quality of life. The Greenseams Program helps the District satisfy the annual requirement contained in its current operating permit for stormwater management utilizing green infrastructure through the purchase and protection of hydric soils in wetlands and natural areas. Scope of Services Under this contract, the Conservation Fund continues to act as the District s program manager for the Greenseams Program. The District has ultimate oversight and decision making authority over this service, except with respect to the consultant s right to enter into contracts for sale of real estate in its own name and acquire property interests in its own name. The Conservation Fund will continue to provide the following consulting services through the contract: Project management, Implementation planning, including real estate services, and Land management services for acquired properties. 3

The Working Soils Program Implementation contract is for an amount not to exceed $170,000 for one year. The contract is being negotiated with the consultant and is requested for Commission approval. The duration of the contract is one year, beginning January 1, 2017, with an estimated completion date of December 31, The District has a longstanding, successful working relationship with the Conservation Fund; therefore, the Working Soils Program has continued with the Conservation Fund on a sole source procurement basis. The Conservation Fund has managed and overseen MMSD s Greenseams Program since 2001 when it was selected through a competitive request for proposal process. This agreement represents an increase of $75,000 from the 2016 Working Soils contract value due to redistribution of the Conservation Fund s staff assignments and time allocation resources across two separate program contracts for Working Soils and Greenseams. The net increase in 2017 total contract values for the Conservation Fund s Greenseams and Working Soils implementation contracts is $12,185.

45 BACKGROUND Approval of Contract P-2698, Working Soils Program Implementation for the Year 2017 MMSD has been implementing the Greenseams program since This innovative program was designed to accomplish environmentally responsible flood management by permanently preserving critical floodplain areas. Undeveloped vegetated lands reduce future flooding risks by storing and draining water into the ground naturally and helping to preserve the capacity of downstream flood management facilities. Like Greenseams, the Working Soils program acquires voluntary, permanent easements on undeveloped, privately owned properties in areas expected to experience major growth in the next 20 years. Working Soils easements provide protection on privately owned farmland and do not accommodate public access to private working lands, whereas Greenseams properties are typically purchased outright and allow for public access for recreation. Like Greenseams, Working Soils easements protect land with water-absorbing hydric soils typically found along streams, shorelines, and wetlands. The Greenseams and Working Soils programs help protect MMSD s structural flood management projects infrastructure investments worth hundreds of millions of dollars. The Working Soils program has leveraged $1 million in grant funding toward the purchase of easements. 2

The goal is to target individuals who utilize internet key word searches for lawn and garden products, buying the ability to bring the brand to the top of the search results. Google charges a per-click fee once the consumer chooses to view the Milorganite website or to view a video. The per-click fee amount is based on an agreed upon sum established through potential advertisers bidding on a specific time-frame and geographical market. While Google is not the only search engine that provides the paid search service (Yahoo, Microsoft Bing, etc.), it is considered the lead search engine, currently holding 64% of online search traffic. The dollar amount requested for this expenditure is consistent with the 2017 budget allocation for Milorganite marketing expenses.

53 BACKGROUND Authorizing the Executive Director to Procure Online Advertising for the Marketing of Milorganite The District s Milorganite website is part of an integrated marketing strategy (print, radio, social media, point of purchase materials, etc.) aimed at educating and inspiring consumers interested in lawn and garden topics. Viewers are finding value in Milorganite s message, as demonstrated in over 468,000 unique visits and over 1,300,000 page views for 2016 (a 42% and 37% increase respectively over 2015). While organic searches comprise a large percentage of the site s web traffic, a paid search strategy is also useful in competing against brands that may have greater consumer awareness. Google and YouTube advertising helps to deliver the Milorganite message to reach a national audience that is specifically searching for relevant lawn and garden information. The online search demographic skews more diverse (younger, educated, and affluent) than typical media aimed at lawn and garden customers. Milorganite sets a specific cost per-click bid as well as daily and overall campaign budgets. Online Advertising Target: Funds will be expended as follows: Seasonality spring, summer, fall Geographically southern, northern, growth markets (west) Key words related lawn and garden terms Video promote Milorganite videos on YouTube and Google networks Targeted viewing devices desktop, mobile/tablet Results from previous years have shown a marked increase of Milorganite website traffic and use of online content, with the following results attributed to the paid search campaign. 2

Based on the District s process of evaluating positions, the Job Content Committee convened to evaluate all District positions as a part of a comprehensive compensation study. Using established methodology and lead by the Carlson-Dettmann consultant, the following changes are recommended to job content value (points and pay grade) and job title: Current Title Water Resources Program Supervisor Recommended Title Current points/grade Recommended points/grade Water Resources Program Manager 709/13 763/14 ATTACHMENTS: BACKGROUND KEY ISSUES RESOLUTION FISCAL NOTE S/W/MBE OTHER PFP_JobContentValue_legislative_file.docx COMMITTEE ACTION: COMMISSION ACTION: DATE: DATE:

61 KEY ISSUES Approval of Job Content Value and Job Title The job content value and job title recommended are based upon an objective review of positions by the District s Job Content Evaluation Committee utilizing the Carlson- Dettmann rating system. The Committee evaluates positions using a point factor system that assigns points in the categories of Formal Preparation and Experience, Decision Making, Thinking Challenges and Problem Solving, Interactions and Communications and Work Environment. Water Resources Program Supervisor Recently, the Water Quality Program Manager accepted a position within MMSD s Planning, Research, and Sustainability Division, creating a managerial vacancy in the Water Quality Program s Field Monitoring department. In an effort to create efficiencies within the systems and field monitoring areas, field monitoring staff and responsibilities were transferred to the Water Resources Program Supervisor position. The position is now responsible for managing the resources associated with systems and field monitoring and related programs to meet District and regulatory needs. A review of the position has determined an increase in the Formal Preparation and Experience and Decision Making factors. The position is now rated at 763 points, pay grade 14. In addition, it is recommended that the title is changed to Water Resources Program Manager. 2
