The joint proposers intend to retain the services of Converse Ward Davis Dixon, Inc., Seattle, Washington, to perform the geotechnical investi- gations on the Project through its Anchorage office and Air Photo Tech Inc., Anchorage, Alaska, to perform required aerial photography and mapping. Dames and Moore of Anchorage, Alaska will be retained to perform the environmental studies and analyses. Mr. Eric P. Yould -2-June 23, 1980 Staff members of our proposed team have conducted an aerial re- connaissance or the site. We also met with Alaska Electric Light and Power Company to discuss its interest and concerns. On the basis of these conver- sations and our review of the available information, we believe it very im- portant to include storage in the Project development, if at all possible, and have prepared our proposal on this basis. Performance of the work described in this proposal will be con- ducted for an estimated budget amount of $657,000. A detailed breakdown of this budget by tasks is included in the proposal. This budget amount assumes a storage dam site will be identified in the feasibility assessment stage, and will be investigated and included in the License Application. A reduction in the amount would result if no economic storage potential is identified. Upon selection as the Engineer for the Project, we will be pleased to work with the Authority in defining more specifically the scope of services, costs and terms or an engineering contract. We appreciate the opportunity to submit this Proposal for engi- neering services for the Dayebas Creek Hydroelectric Project.

(Anchorage, Alaska), and Converse Ward Davis Dixon, Inc. through its Anchorage office. The utilization of Alaskan residents, in accordance with AS 36.10.010, is a concept which is in concert with the project team as identified for the conduct of the Dayebas Creek Project. Of the total staff necessary to complete all phases of the Dayebas Creek Project feasibility studies and FERC License Application, 15 individuals or 54% of the entire project team are current residents of the State of Alaska. In addition, the exploration drillers and members of the survey crews would be Alaska residents. PROFESSIONAL ENGINEER REGISTRATION Both R. W. Beck and Associates, Inc. and Tryck, Nyman & Hayes are duly authorized to practice the profession of engineering in Alaska. The principal personnel of both firms are Registered Professional Engineers in the State of Alaska. The three subcontractor firms are also duly authorized to work in the State of Alaska. 2 QUALIFICATIONS PROJECT CONCEPT AND CAPABILITIES .----------A. W. BECK AND ASSOCIATES. INC./ TAYCK NYMAN & HAYES----------, PROJECT CONCEPT AND CAPABILITIES PROJECT CONCEPT The proposed Dayebas Creek Project will be located on Dayebas Creek, a small stream on the east side of Taiya Inlet, approximately six miles northeast of Haines. Dayebas Creek starts at the glacier on the north side of Mount Villard and flows north through a series of lakes before turning west to Taiya Inlet. The creek drains an area of about 11-1/2 square miles, most of which is above El 2000. In the last 1/4 mile the creek drops 500 feet into Taiya Inlet. The proposed project will make use of this final drop and divert water from a diversion dam at approximately the 500-foot contour through a steel penstock to a powerhouse located on the shore. From the powerhouse a combination of submarine and conventional land transmission lines will carry the power to the City of Haines. Studies to date have considered the Dayebas Creek Hydroelectric Project as a run-of-the-river project because there are no obvious storage sites. Unfortunately, such projects do not provide the optimum benefit to towns in Southeast Alaska, since a majority of the runoff occurs in the spring and summer months, while the peak energy demand occurs in the winter months. If even a small storage site could be found upstream on Dayebas Creek some regulation of flow could be achieved, thus increasing the potential benefits of the project. In order to adequately evaluate the technical and economic feasi- bility of the Dayebas Creek Project, we consider the most critical items are to ( 1) more definitely establish the hydrology of the basin; ( 2) more com- pletely investigate the possibilities of a storage reservoir; and (3) review the assumptions concerning transmission routing. Generalized regional studies of hydrology in Southeast Alaska have presented certain problems because the rugged terrain causes extreme variation in rainfall and thus streamflow, even between joining basins. According to the Reconnaissance Study Report a stream gage will be established on Dayebas Creek in June of this year, but this will not provide enough background data for the early studies. The preliminary feasibility study will review the work in the Reconnaissance Study Report, together with whatever measurements become available from the new gage. In addition, we will further investigate corre- lations with other stream gages and rainfall records in order to more firmly establish the hydrology of the creek. Available mapping of the drainage area is limited to USGS quad sheets, at a scale of 1:63,360 and with 100-foot contour intervals. This does not allow a complete investigation of the area upstream of the diversion dam as to its suitability for a storage reservoir. In a flight over the basin, it was not possible to identify any obvious site for a storage reservoir. By using available aerial photographs and perhaps some additional mapping to- gether with on-the-ground inspection of the creek, we propose to determine whether or not a reasonable size upstream storage is possible and practicable. r----------R. W. BECK AND ASSOCIATES, INC. I TRYCK NYMAN & HAYES---------, (2) Transmission routing will also need to be investigated in some de- tail during the preliminary feasibility study. According to marine charts, Taiya Inlet has a deep trench directly in front of Dayebas Creek. This trench reaches depths of greater than 1, 000 feet. Placement of a submarine cable across such a trench will present certain problems. South of Dayebas Creek, Taiya Inlet enters Chilkoot Inlet and the bottom rises. Maximum depths in this area are only about 400 feet. It is possible that running a transmission line along the shore and across the shallower depths will be easier. However, the shoreline is extremely steep and forested and construction of a trans- mission line along that shore will be expensive and may be environmentally harmful. The preliminary feasibility study will investigate the technical feasibility and cost of both a route across the deep 1 ,000-foot Taiya Inlet, and a route along the south shore and across the shallower Chilkoot Inlet. The objective of the engineering and professional services pre- sented in this proposal is to determine the technical, economic and environ- mental feasibility of the Dayebas Creek Hydroelectric Project and to prepare an FERC License Application for its construction and operation. To accomplish this objective, a project team has been identified which has the requisite technical expertise and experience with local conditions (regulatory, environ- mental, and logistic) necessary to ensure the realization of the objective in a timely and quality manner. The project team is a union of highly qualified and experienced firms in the successful development of hydroelectric and other water resource related projects in Alaska. CAPABILITIES R. W. Beck and Associates, Inc. (Beck) has more than 20 years of experience in the planning, licensing, design and construction of hydro- electric projects located throughout the United States.

TRYCK NYMAN & HAYES Project Name: Date of Completion: Location of Project: Contract Cost: Client: Project Scope: Cordova Water Supply Project 1974 Cordova, Alaska $200,000 City of Cordova, Alaska Perry Lovette (907) 424-3237 TRYCK I NYMAN & HAYES This project consisted of studying and evaluating al- ternative sources of water supply. The feasibility of constructing one or more dam impoundments, development water intake facilities on several streams, drilling water wells and wellfields, and constructing an intake and treatment system on an existing lake were evaluated. Following completion of the study phase, detailed plans and specifications were prepared for drilling several water wells, enlarging and existing reservoir (Meals Lake) and relocating a section of an existing water supply line through a canyon. The project also in- cluded a cost-effective analysis for filtration and chlorination. Design of Meals Lake Dam consisted of a 20-foot high, welded sheet steel-lined structure with rock backfill and riprap. This project increased existing reservoir capac! ty by 22 million gallons to a total of approxi- mately 45 million gallons. An unusual design consider- ation was the underwater intake structure. The under- water inlet avoided the expense of an above-water actu- ator which would be subject to ice build-up and sub- stantial ice pressures. Project Name: Date of Completion: Location of Project: Contract Cost: Client: Project Scope: Unalaska Water System Improvements 1976 Unalaska, Alaska $2,000,000 City of Unalaska, Alaska Jesse Burton (907) 581-1251 TRYCK, NYMAN & HAYES This project involved preparation of plans and specifi- cations for upgrading an existing water system. The project included a new sheet pile dam, new supply lines, chlorination and filtering systems for a total capacity of 7, 500 gpm. An access road with several large culvert stream crossings was designed as part of the project. Two diversion dams were constructed on this project. The larger dam on Pyramid Creek consists of interlocking sheet piling concreted into a cutoff trench excavated in rock. The spillway is 23 feet wide and is approximately 10 feet above the original channel. The project also included plans and specifications for rehabilitation of the abandoned water distribution system at Dutch Harbor, Alaska. Prior to actual design of the water system, TNH com- pleted in 1973, a long-range plan for meeting the com- munity's water and sewer needs. The study included evaluation of the community infrastructure, population analysis and forecast, land use analysis and plan and recommendations for developing sewer and water facili- ties. The design/planning phase of the Project was completed in 1976 and it was constructed by 1978 at a cost of $2.0 million. The system provides water supply to the developed portion of the community and to eleven canneries and fish processing facilities located near the harbor. Project Name: Kodiak Water Supply Date of Completion: 1973 Location of Project: Kodiak, Alaska Contract Cost: $1,600,000 Client: City of Kodiak, Alaska Herman Benkers (907) 486-5731 TRYCK, NYMAN & HAYES Project Scope: The City commissioned Tryck, Nyman & Hayes to study alternative water supply sources, make recommendations for upgrading 'available sources, and to prepare plans and specifications for construction of necessary im- provements. A total of 12 separate alternatives for water supply were evaluated. Expansion of the pumping facilities at Pillar Creek, construction of an intake and pumphouse on Monashka Creek, construction of pipelines to the City system, and reconstruction of an existing pipeline from Pillar Creek to Kodiak were recommended. Final design activities related to the Pillar Creek pumphouse included an expansion of its capacity from 1, 000 gallons per minute to 3, 500 gallons per minute. Final design of Monashka Creek pumphouse reflected an initial capacity of 5, 000 gallons per minute, with the capability for expansion to a total pumping capacity of 10,000 gallons per minute. The firm was also responsible for the design of a 3-mile long, 24-inch water transmission line connecting the Monashka Creek pumphouse to the existing City water transmission system and a 15-foot high sheet steel- lined, rockfill diversion dam which forms a 200 million gallon reservoir and water intake. The structure is designed to withstand the 5-year flood crest in the creek. An interested design feature is the "gloryhole" spillway which is made up of a corrugated metal culvert with a flared entrance. CONVERSE WARD DAVIS DIXON, INC.

DAMES & MOORE PROJECT LOCATION Project: Biological Baseline Research and Impact Analysis for the Alaska Petrochemical Company Refinery Environmental Impact Statement Location: Valdez, Alaska Date: 1979 Cost: $600,000 Client: DOWL Engineers Dames & Moore provided an analysis of the biological aspects of con- structing the proposed Alpetco refinery in Valdez. Six technical investigations concerned with resources in the Valdez area were conducted: 1. Plant communities of eastern Port Valdez. 2. The mammals of Port Valdez. 3. The birds of Port Valdez. 4. Freshwater aquatic habitats of the Valdez area. 5. Salmon fry dispersion in eastern Port Valdez. 6. Intertidal and shallow subtidal habitats of Port Valdez. Information from the above studies was integrated and summarized and impacts of the proposed refinery were analyzed. Sections of the Environmental Impact Statement relating to biological resources were prepared. DAMES 8 MOORE Project: Geotechnical Evaluation and Environmental Assessment Proposed Expanded Port Facilities Location: Valdez, Alaska Date: 1979 Cost: $330,000 Client: City of Valdez PROJECT LOCATION This project involved evaluating the geotechnical feasibility of con- structing a deep-water port in the Valdez area, analyzing the environ- mental impact of the proposed facilities, providing appropriate documen- tation to accompany permit application, and acting as the City's agent in the permitting process. A bathymetric survey was conducted to define the bottom profile and determine accurate estimates of dredging quantities. Subsurface inves- tigations, including borings and sample analyses, were undertaken to determine the engineering characteristics of the soils and the maximum extent of probable landslides from the shelf break. The project involved the preparation of a detailed environmental assess- ment report integrating information from baseline studies with information available from other sources. The environmental assessment report involved a multi-disciplinary approach and included a consideration of socioeconomic, physical and biological impacts. The project included a coordination role between the study investigators, designers, and state and federal agencies. Throughout the study, contact was maintained to ensure that the final EA report would address all regulatory concerns and thus facilitate timely acquisition of state and federal permits. DAMES 8 MOORE PROJECT LOCATION Project: Environmental Impact / Statement Location: Prudhoe Bay, A 1 ask a D In Progress Cost: $800,000 Client: Alaska District U.S. Army Corps of Engineers . "·~ Dames & ~1oore has been working under the direction of the Alaska District Corps of Engineers in preparing a third-party DEIS for the Prudhoe Bay Unit Waterflood Project. This project involves removal and treatment of a large volume of water from the Beaufort Sea with pipeline transportation to the field for injection into the oil-bearing formation. Utilizing a detailed knowledge of State and federal regulations and permit requirements, Dames & Moore personnel were able to anticipate many of the complex issues and concerns associated with this project. Scoping meetings were held with the permitting agencies, owners' representatives, and the public to further define the pertinent issues which include such diverse elements as: 1. Effects on fish and lagoon systems from the existing and pro- posed extension of the causeway into the Beaufort Sea. 2. Effects on marine life from the seawater intake and discharge. 3. The cumulative effect of the action in conjunction with a likely scenario for development of other arctic resources. 4. The need for energy and effect of a delay on annual and total production of oil and gas. The proposed and alternative designs were analyzed to determine relative impacts on the marine and terrestrial environments. Mathematical modeling of circulation and water quality was conducted to evaluate the effects of the causeway extension. Geobotanical mapping was conducted to identify critical habitat areas. Recommendations and mitigation measures were formulated to promote a final development plan that is both environ- mentally sound and economically feasible. The DEIS has recently been released for public review. DAMESBMOOAE 3 MANAGEMENT OF THE PROJECT PROJECT TEAM ,.----------R. W.

The Project Control Memorandum is prepared under the direction of the Project Manager for review and approval by the Review Staff. Following issuance of the Project Control Memorandum, planning mem- oranda will be prepared for detailed control of the work. Typically, these planning memoranda will include administrative direct! ves such as calculation and data file codes, engineering cost coding and control, and the preliminary design criteria for the Project, including engineering and economic para- meters. The purpose of the planning memoranda is to set forth in writing the basis and criteria for the conduct of the job. Planning memoranda will be prepared by the lead engineers and approved by the Project Manager. As changes occur during the progress of the work, revised memoranda will be issued. The preparation and use of Project Control Memoranda and planning memoranda are long-established standard procedures of the Consulting Engineer. COST AND SCHEDULING CONTROL A cost and scheduling control system will be provided which util- izes graphic schedules, monthly activity reports and project engineering prog- ress charts. To ensure adherence to target scheduling and estimated engineer- ing costs, these controls will be reviewed semi-monthly and revised, if neces- sary, to indicate overall status of a project and to identify specific efforts needed to expedite the work to maintain schedules. STAFF REVIEW As concepts are developed by the Project Team, review will be per- formed by the Review Staff. Upon completion of the study for each phase for the Project, a draft of the resulting report will be prepared which will be reviewed by members of the Review Staff prior to submittal to APA.

W. BECK AND ASSOCIATES. INC./ TRYCK NYMAN & HAYES---------, STUDY PLAN R. W. Beck and Associates, Inc. and Tryck, Nyman & Hayes (herein referred to as the Consulting Engineer) will provide consulting engineering services to the Alaska Power Authority (APA) to determine the technical, eco- nomic and environmental feasibility or the Dayebas Creek Hydroelectric Project which is located near Haines, Alaska. It is anticipated that this Project will include a diversion dam, approximately 1,600 feet or penstock, a power- house and both submarine and overhead transmission facilities to connect with Haines existing distribution system. Additionally it has been assumed that a suitable reservoir storage site may be round which would provide the opportun- ity for flow regulation and development or firm power. The engineering services associated with this Project will be per- formed in two phases consisting or: Phase I -Preliminary Feasibility Assessment Preliminary engineering studies and investigations will be con- ducted to determine the amount or water available, the potential for develop- ing a storage reservoir, the preliminary Project layout and sizing or facili- ties, the estimated cost and benefits, and an appraisal or the resulting tech- nical and economic reasiblity or site development, together with an assessment or its environmental suitability. A report will be prepared with conclusions and recommendations for the Phase II work, if the assessment shows viability. Phase II -Detailed Feasibility Study and Preparation of License Application The feasibility part or this phase includes the aerial mapping, topographic and fathometric surveys; detailed hydrologic, geotechnical and environmental investigations and analyses; reservoir and power studies; pre- liminary design, layout and comparison or alternative developments and deter- mination or selected arrangement; estimate or cost and benefits and determina- tion or Project feasibility. The Detailed Feasibility Report will evaluate Project feasibility in sufficient detail to form the basis for Project licens- ing and financing. The License Application includes the organizing, collecting and review or all baseline data, reviewing all environmental efforts with con- cerned Federal, State and local agencies to attempt to resolve any problem areas, and the preparation of the License Application in accordance with the current FERC regulations. PHASE I -PRELIMINARY FEASIBILITY ASSESSMENT Upon authorization to proceed, the Consulting Engineer will initi- ate the Phase I engineering services which consist of field and office studies required to arrive at a reasonable feasibility assessment report. This assessment will arrive at conclusions as to the desirability of proceeding with the Detailed Feasibility Study and Preparation of an FERC License Appli- cation. The services to be performed in the conduct of this assessment will consist of the following major tasks: 1. Data Procurement and Evaluation 2. Site Reconnaissance 3. Hydrology and Power Studies 4. Project Formulation 5. Project Economics 6. Preliminary Feasibility Assessment Report Details of each of these major work tasks are described below. In addition, the specialist subcontractors' work plans are presented in detail at the end of this Section. 1.

I TRYCK NYMAN & HAYES---------, (3) 2. Site Reconnaissance A map review and on-site inspection will be conducted by key per- sonnel to familiarize themselves with the Project area and to make both an engineering and environmental assessment or the site suitability for the Proj- ect. The activities associated with this task are as follows: a. Identification and selection or potential dam and reservoir storage sites, including possibly a preliminary field survey profile or poten- tial sites. b. powerhouse. Identification or preliminary locations for penstock and c. Alignment reconnaissance or transmission lines. d. Geologic reconnaissance investigation. e. Environmental reconnaissance investigation. f. Inspection of lakes and glaciers. 3. Hydrology and Power Studies A preliminary hydrologic analysis or the Project drainage basin will be conducted to determine dry year and average runoff available for development or hydroelectric power. The firm (dry year) and average annual energy which can be developed from the Project will be estimated on the basis or a seasonal annual plant factor from experience resulting in a selected pre- liminary power plant capacity, and an identified method or operation to meet the City's loads. The hydrologic and power studies include: a. Utilizing statistical methods and the available physiographic and climatic factors or the region, make the best estimate possible or the dry year and long-term average annual runoff. b. Estimate that portion or the dry year and average annual run- orr attributable to glacial melt. c. Estimate the firm and average annual generation for each of the identified concepts or Project operation. d. The above estimates will be guided using flows measured at the stream gage to be installed on Dayebas Creek. This work will continue through both Phases I and II. r----------R. W. BECK AND ASSOCIATES, INC./ TRYCK NYMAN & HAYES---------, (4) 4. Project Formulation Preliminary design bases will be established. Preliminary concep- tual layouts for the alternative arrangements will be prepared in sufficient detail to provide a basis for preliminary comparative construction cost esti- mating. The resulting annual costs and average annual output, and hence esti- mated cost of power for the various conceptual layouts, will be established and a selective Project layout arrived at. 5. Project Economics The economic feasibility of the selected arrangement will then be determined in more detail by comparing its estimated annualized cost with that of diesel fuel escalated over the first ten years of Project operation. 6. Preliminary Feasibility Assessment Report The feasibility assessment ·report will be prepared which presents the basic Project data, findings from the site survey, results of the hydrol- ogy and power studies, a description and preliminary layout of Project alter- natives, comparison of Project costs, results of the economic analysis and recommendations regarding the advisability of proceeding into a detailed fea- sibility study. PHASE II -DETAILED FEASIBILITY STUDY AND PREPARATION OF A LICENSE APPLICATION The objective of the engineering services set forth in Phase II is to determine the technical, economic and environmental feasibility of the Dayebas Creek Hydroelectric Project in detail, and to prepare an FERC License Application for construction and operation of the Project.

DAYEBAS CREEK HYDROELECTRIC PROJECT HAINES, ALASKA Phase I Preliminary Feasibility Assessment Complete reconnaissance level geologic assessment of the proposed diversion structure, penstock and powerhouse areas. The results of this study would be summarized in a written report including the feasibility of the proposed proj- ect from a geotechnical standpoint. Phase II Detailed Feasibility Study Based on a favorable recommendation in Phase I, a Phase II detailed feasibili- ty study should be completed to verify the assumptions of the Phase I recon- naissance study. The Phase II study would include the tasks shown below. It has been assumed that a storage reservoir site will be defined during Phase I and has been included as an option in the detailed feasibility. It has been assumed that helicopter support will be required for certain portions of the work, especially at the storage site, and has been included in that portion of the estimated costs. Converse Ward Davis Dixon, Inc. Task I Task II PROJECT MANAGEMENT AND SUPERVISION This item includes project management, scheduling, planning, con- tracting for outside services and supervision. Mr. Alan L. O'Neill will manage all technical aspects of the project and provide the majority of liaison with R. W. Beck and Associates and its client, if required. Mr. William Bliton, Senior Geologist, will supervise all field investigation and will be responsible for project plan- ning and scheduling. FIELD GEOLOGIC WORK A. A compilation will be made of existing regional geologic data and field checking will be performed in the project area. B. Conduct field exploration consisting of diamond core borings and seismic refraction survey. c. Geologic mapping will be performed at the diversion struc- ture, penstock and powerhouse sites. D. Reconnaissance level geologic inspection will be made along the above ground portion of the transmission line to identify suspected geologic hazards. Converse Ward Davis Dixon, Inc. E.

As an optional item, conduct geologic mapping, core drilling, and a geophysical survey at the site or a reservoir storage structure to be identified in Phase I. Task III FIELD EXPLORATION AND TESTING A. Core Drilling: A total or approximately seven borings with an aggregate total or approximately 325 feet will be drilled to depths or approximately 25 to 75 feet. One boring with an approximate depth or 25 feet is planned at the diversion structure. Two borings would be completed in the powerhouse-tailrace area. An optional boring is included for drilling at the penstock if mapping or geophysical work indicate the need. Three ad- ditional optional borings have been included at a possible storage reservoir site. These borings are anticipated to be on the order or 75 feet in depth and may require helicopter support for access. Converse Ward Davis Dixon, Inc. Task IV B. Geophysical Surveys: A total of approximately 3250 lineal feet of seismic re- fraction profiling would be completed to determine depth to various subsurface layers including bedrock. This would in- clude approximately 275 feet in both the proposed powerhouse and diversion structure area, and approximately 1600 lineal feet along the proposed penstock alignment. In addition, an optional 1100 lineal feet of seismic traverse is proposed at the storage reservoir site. A total of approximately five miles of offshore seismic re- flection survey would be completed along two proposed sub- marine cable routes. One route extends from near the mouth of Dayebas Creek across Taiya Inlet to Taiya Point and west- ward across Lutak Inlet to Tanani Point north of Haines. A second route extends from Low Point Light southwest across to Nukdik Point. The survey would be combined with a bathy metric survey to determine bottom and subbottom conditions along the routes. The survey would be completed utilizing a 28-32 foot boat and an electronic positioning system.

'2; I '( • .. •'I ...... . ~ DAMES 8 MOORE WORK PLAN It should be emphasized that little information is currently avail- able regarding the resources and environmental sensitivity of the proposed project area. Furthermore, at this stage in project development it is not known whether a high dam and, consequently, substantial inundation of upper Dayebas Creek will be involved. These factors make development of a firm scope of work very difficult. The following work plan, therefore, should be considered in that light. Dames & Moore's multidisciplinary study team wi 11 maintain the flexibility to respond to specific site conditions and alter the study approach whenever appropriate. The work plan presented below incorporates the following assumptions: • A high dam will be utilized, thus the entire Dayebas Creek watershed will require study. • Upper Dayebas Creek has some fishery potential. If either of the above assumptions proves to be untrue then the scope of work can be reduced accordingly. PRELIMINARY REVIEW This task will include review of project information to date, initial literature review, attendance at coordination meetings, and follow-up meetings with resource agency personnel and other relevant institutional groups. It may also be necessary at this stage to conduct a brief recon- naissance of the project area in order to gain an appreciation of the ter- rain, field study limitations, etc. The goal of this effort will be to refine our appraisal of the scope and to insure that our approach is suitable to those agencies holding re- 2 DAMES 8 MOORE view power over project licensing. This step is essential in order to plan a field program that obtains the maximum amount of relevant information and a minimum amount of extraneous data. This job segment will result in a refined, detailed work plan de- scribing specific tasks and expected results, along with rationale, in order to provide conclusions regarding issues in question. FISH AND WILDLIFE STUDIES Office Phase 1. Acquisition of Available Information -Existing information per- taining to aquatic and terrestrial biology of the project area will be compiled from the following sources: • Literature review . • Unpublished data from resource agency files . • Interviews with resource agency field personnel . 2. Habitat Mapping -Using aerial photos, general habitat types based on plant communities will be mapped within specific zones as defined during the Preliminary Review. It is anticipated that the mapped area wi 11 inc 1 ude mast of the Dayebas Creek drain age and the over 1 and portion of the transmission corridor. Ground truthing and refinement of the mapping will occur during the field phase. Field Program We propose to conduct an interdisciplinary field program in August with a possible follow-up field trip as required in March 1981 in order to 3 DAMES 8 MOORE observe winter conditions. A team of 4 to 5 people will be occupied for 2 to 16 days, depending on weather and sampling success. The following is a preliminary scope of work and can be readily modified to address specific issues or to change emphasis. 1. Wildlife -We will conduct both ground and aerial surveys to locate key wildlife habitat and define areas of usage. Approximately 8 hours will be expended in aerial surveillance of the Dayebas Creek drainage area and along the transmission corridor (including alternate routes if app 1 icab le). Ground surveys will concentrate on the areas that may be inundated and in the vicinity of proposed facilities. Survey transects will be established where practical, habitats will be characterized (to supplement the habitat mapping program), and wild- life usage documented. Ground surveys will include observation of scats, tracks, and other signs of use and abundance. Particular emphasis will be placed on the identification of eagle nest trees. Such an approach to wildlife inventory will not provide statistically supported population estimates, but will provide qualitative infor- mation, indications of abundance, and patterns of use. Actual population estimates will not be practical in view of the terrain and overall study scope. 2. Anadromous Fish -Initial indications suggest that Dayebas Creek is not used by anadromous fish species. Steep stream gradients near the outlet probably preclude upstream use by anadromous species; however, some intertidal spawning may occur. Observations of the stream mouth area will be made on several occasions during the summer field program and any indication of anadromous fish use will be noted. Nearshore netting in conjunction with marine biological work may also provide insight. 4 DAMES 8 MOORE 3. Dayebus Creek Resident Fish -It is not known whether the upper Dayebus Creek drainage area, above the proposed diversion dam, cur- rently supports any fish species or whether the area is capable of supporting fish. Dames & Moore will employ a flexible study plan in order to characterize this unknown area. Study sites and applicable methods will be selected on the basis of initial aerial reconnais- sance. The following sampling techniques will be utilized where appropriate: seines, variable mesh gill nets, backpack elec- troshocker, and visual observation. Length and weight will be measured for all fish captured and scales taken for age analysis. A few fish will be sacrificed for stomach content analysis. Aquatic habitat potential based on physical and biological charac- teristics will be described for selected reaches of Dayebas Creek, its tributaries, and interconnecting lakes. Habitat characterization will emphasize those areas proposed for inundation. 4. Marine Biology - a. Intertidal Ecology-The intertidal zone at the mouth of Dayebas Creek will be a primary site of direct impact in relation to powerhouse siting and tailwater discharge. Major biotic assem- blages will be described for the intertidal area within a zone north and south of the proposed powerhouse. Methods to be used will rely heavily on qualitative reconnaissance during low tide periods. The qualitative analysis will be supplemented by a limited quantitative effort including quadrat counts of dominant animals and estimates of plant cover. Additional intertidal investigations will be conducted at the site where the proposed transmission line will enter Taiya Inlet. b. Nearshore Marine Fish -An attempt will be made to characterize 5 DAMES 8 MOORE nearshore fish species using a variable mesh gill net set near the mouths of Dayebas Creek . Net data will be supplemented be visual observations in conjunction with the intertidal surveys. c. Subtidal Ecology -Subtidal ecology of Taiya Inlet (as related to submarine transmission cable impacts) will not be examined in the field. Subtidal impacts will, however, be considered during the office analysis phase. Final Analysis 1. Wildlife-All information will be compiled and analyzed. Analysis of the potential impacts of the project will be based on the habitat mapping in combination with wildlife use data. Appropriate mitiga- tion measures will be developed along with an analysis of relative costs and benefits. Emphasis wi 11 be on the projected area of inundation, the transmission corridor and powerhouse sites. 2. Fisheries -Laboratory analysis (scale aging and stomach content analysis) will be completed and all information will be compiled. Analysis of impacts and potential mitigation measures will be con- ducted for each potential impact element. Emphasis will be as follows: • Potential effects of inundation on resident fish within the upper Dayebas Creek drainage. • Potential effects and mitigation measures relative to tailrace discharge and altered creek flows below the dam. 3. Marine Biology -Laboratory analysis of intertidal samples will be completed and all information will be compiled. Analysis of impacts 6 DAMES 8 MOORE and potential mitigation measures will be conducted with emphasis on the following: • Potential effects of the powerhouse, tailrace discharge, and altered creek flow on the intertidal biota. • Potential effects of the submarine cable on subtidal biota . WATER QUALITY STUDIES Office Phase Existing information pertaining to water quality of Taiya Inlet and Dayebas Creek will be compiled from a review of both published and unpublished data as well as interviews with resource agency field per- sonnel. Field Program A field data collection program will be conducted in conjunction with the fisheries studies. It is proposed that the following information be collected: 1. Baseline Water Quality of Taiya Inlet - A temperature profile and water samples from representative depths will be acquired at a location near the mouth of Dayebas Creek. Parameters measured in the field for each sample will be as listed in Table 1. At least one sample will be retained for detailed laboratory analysis as per Table 1. 2. Baseline Water Quality of Lower Dayebas Creek-At least two samplings of water from lower Dayebas Creek will be collected during the summer field program and analyzed as per Table 1. 7 DAMES 8 MOORE Measured in Field ph Dissolved oxygen temperature conductivity COz Alkalinity TABLE 1 BASELINE WATER QUALITY PARAMETERS Measured in Lab Turbidity Total dissolved solids Total suspended solids Total & ortho phosphate Total nitrogen Ammonia nitrogen Nitrate nitrogen Nitrite nitrogen Kjehldahl nitrogen Hardness Chloride Sulfate 8 Arsenic Barium Calcium Cadmi urn Chromium Copper Iron Mercury Potassium Magnesium Manganese Silver Sodium Ni eke 1 Lead Selenium Silicon Strontium Zinc DAMES 8 MOORE pling sites in the upper creek drainage will be selected in conjunc- tion with fisheries studies sites. Likely sites would include at least one of the headwaters lakes, tributaries, and central portion of the mainstream. If appropriate, the above sampling regime will be repeated in the late winter (March 1981) to obtain information on contrasting winter conditions. Fin a 1 Analysis All information will be compiled and analyzed relative to potential project impacts. Emphasis will be as follows: • Potential water quality impact on Dayebas Creek below the dam and possible mitigation measures. • Potential water quality impact on Taiya Inlet downstream from the tailrace discharge. • Potential fisheries impact and mitigation (information to be integrated with the results of fish studies). STUDIES OF AESTHETIC ASPECTS A subjective overview of the aesthetic aspects of the project will be acquired by the project team during the various field studies. Suggestions for mitig ation will be developed as a team effort, taking into consid- eration potential recreational uses of the area. STUDIES OF ANTIQUITIES AND HISTORIC SITES Initi a l indications suggest no known site s of archaeologic a l or historic importance exist in the project area . A field survey of paten- 9 I_ DAMES 8 MOORE tially impacted zones, especially within areas of potential inundation, will be conducted to confirm or deny the above indication. If a site of cultural importance is discovered, an appropriate pro- gram of investigation will be initiated to determine the steps to be taken to either preserve or clear the area for development. SOCIOECONOMIC AND RECREATIONAL USE STUDIES The social and economic impacts of the proposed Dayebas Creek Hydro- electric Project will involve the short term effects caused by construc- tion of the project, notably emp 1 oyment generation, and the 1 ong term affects related to the increased availability of less-expensive electric power and probably minor effects of operation and maintenance of the facilities. project area. Office Phase Some impacts may also occur to the recreational use of the The preliminary analysis will involve review of the project plan to ascertain such factors as employment generation (timing, skills, extent of local hire, etc.), the amount of local purchases of materials and services, the housing of construction workers, logistics, and transportation of men and materia 1. Published literature on the economy and culture of the Haines area will be reviewed. Other projects that may have socioeconomic impacts during the same time frame as the project or which could cause long term changes in the social and economic infrastructure will also be reviewed. Demographic, social, and economic trends without and with the project will be discerned. Current recreational uses will be inventoried. 10 DAMES 8 MOORE Field Data Collection Program In addition to the office literature review and telephone contacts in the area, a field trip will be conducted to gain first hand information from Haines residents, native groups, and business leaders on the social and economic infrastructure and concerns of the area. Key socioeconomic issues will be identified and prioritized. Information on subsistence and recreational activities in the area of the project will also be collected on this field trip. Final Analysis Data obtained in the field will · be compared with the published data base and analyzed. The key socioeconomic issues will be identified and possible mitigation measures formulated. Emphasis will be on an analysis of the following potential impacts: • • The short-term employment effects of the project including the timing, nature and amount of employment generated by construc- tion, and the extent of local hire as well as any competition between various labor markets. Secondary employment effects in the transportation and service sectors in Haines. • The housing and interaction of outside construction workers relative to the residents of Haines. • Any disturbance or disruption to the local residents or their cultural and subsistence activities caused by construction ac- tivities or the presnece of non-resident workers. • The 1 ong term effects on the economy of Haines through the availability of less expensive electric power. 11 DAMES 8 MOORE REPORT PREPARATION Products to be prepared by Dames & Moore as a result of the above investigations will include: 1. Drafts of Exhibits R, S, and V (as per FERC Rules of Practice and Procedure). 2. Summary reports relating to water quality and socioeconomic aspects. Additionally, Dames & Moore will interact with the R.W. Beck staff during the preparation of Exhibit W, serving primarily in a review capa- city. 12 PROJECT SCHEDULE ,---------R. W. BECK AND ASSOCIATES. INC./ TRYCK NYMAN & HAYES---------, PROJECT SCHEDULE The Project Schedule, presented in Exhibit II at the end of this section, shows the relative timing and duration of the key work tasks to be provided by the Consulting Engineer. The schedule is based on our experience in Alaska and other locations in conducting such feasibility investigations and preparing FERC License Applications for small-scale hydropower projects. Based on this experience and assuming an order to proceed being given approxi- mately August 1, we estimate that a draft of the Preliminary Feasibility Assessment Report can be submitted for APA review and comments within six months. Allowing a month for review of the report by APA; it is assumed that APA will then make a decision to proceed with the Detailed Feasibility Study and preparation of the License Application. Initiation of Phase II services will commence immediately following notice to proceed. A draft of the Detailed Feasibility Report would be completed and forwarded to APA by January 1, 1982 for review and comments. The FERC License Application will proceed concurrently towards the latter part of the Detailed Feasibility Report and a draft will also be completed for review by the Authority by June 1982. The initial Application will be completed and sent to the FERC about four weeks after receipt of the Authority's comments on the Draft Application. It is anticipated that formal FERC acceptance of the Application will be recognized by the end of August 1982. --------·---·-r· ·-------------·--------------- 1980 1981 1982 PHASE I TASK -- JUL AUG SEP OCT NOV DEC JAN FEB MAR APR MAY JUN JUL AUG SEP OCT NOV DEC JAN FEB MA R APR MAY JUN JUL AU'3 PHASE I DATA COMPILATION AND REVIEW.
