The City has received a 2025 2027 Ecology Stormwater Capacity Grant for $120,000 to support development of the foundational programmatic elements necessary for P ermit compliance. The grant funding expires March 31, 2027. The City is now contracting with Parametrix to develop an NPDES Stormwater Management Program (SWMP) Plan to address the Permit requirements in Section S5 -Stormwater Management Program for Cities, Towns, and Counties. A project understanding and scoping meeting was held between the City and Parametrix on April 30, 2026. The overall goal of this project is to provide the City with a baseline SWMP 1 that the City can build on and refine moving into the future. Parametrix previously supported the City in developing a Stormwater Management Plan in 2016,prior to Phase II MS4 designation, and that document will be superseded by this effort. The project effort will focus on the following SWMP components required by the Permit (limited only to the elements required for new permittees for this Permit cycle): S.5.A. Overall SWMP, including SWMP Plan and cost tracking. S.5.C1. Stormwater Planning Stormwater Management Action Plan ning(SMAP)requirements are a subset of this section. Project effort will focus only on new permittee requirements pertaining to tree canopy mapping, low-impact development (LID)code review,and coordination with long-range plans. S.5.C2. Public Education and Outreach. S.5.C3. Public Involvement and Participation. S.5.C4. MS4 Mapping and Documentation. S.5.C5. Illicit Discharge Detection and Elimination (IDDE). S.5.C6. Controlling Runoff from New Development, Redevelopment, and Construction Sites. Not included/not required for new permittees: S.5.C7. Stormwater Management for Existing Development (SMED). S.5.C8. Source Control Program for Existing Development. S.5.C9. Operations and Maintenance (O&M). 1 document itself program program, and the document that records SWMP Plan. City of Yelm 553-1781-851 NPDES Program Development 1 July 2026 Scope of Work GENERAL ASSUMPTIONS Ecology identified several SWMP components in a January 29, 2026, compliance review letter. The effort in this scope will prioritize those elements where possible. The City will provide all needed information in electronic format via email, FTP site transfer, or file share platform such as OneDrive/SharePoint or Project Wise. D raft review documents will generally be provided in MS Word, Excel, and/or PDF format s. All review comments will be compiled into a single file, and conflicting comments will be resolved by the City prior to return to Parametrix. Final deliverables will be provided in PDF format and, where applicable, MS Word file. For any Ecology Permit submittals, Parametrix will submit documents to the City, and the City will submit the documents to Ecology. Unless otherwise noted, all meetings will be virtual. Parametrix bill rates shown in the budget reflect an increase of 3.5% for approximately 67% of the work to accommodate scheduled salary adjustments that occur in October of every year. Project schedule will target task completion to align with Ecology deadlines, including to maximize use of grant funding by March 31, 2027. As project work advances, Parametrix and the City will communicate regularly to confirm scope and schedule expectations and allow for adaptive management discussions as needed, including in the event that any task work schedule extends beyond the grant funding window. TASK 1. PROJECT MANAGEMENT Measurable Objective This effort is intended to track, manage, document, and report on the work effort throughout the life of the contract.
