SCOPE OF SERVICES AND FEE
South Carlsbad Blvd Climate Adaptation Project -Las Encinas Creek Restoration Concepts
Outlined below is a scope of services to advance the design development of two managed retreat and
restoration concepts being conceived for the Las Encinas Creek Vision Area . These concepts were
previously presented to the Project team and partners as the 1) Let it Go and 2) Phased Retreat options.
Both alternatives include the relocation of South Carlsbad Blvd to the existing northbound corridor;
however, the timeframe for the removal of the southbound corridor infrastructure (roadway fill prism,
bridge, rock revetment) differs.
The Let it Go alternative would remove southbound South Carlsbad Blvd infrastructure immediately to re-
establish a more natural cross-shore gradient and morphological processes in hopes of sustaining a
coastal pocket beach, dune, and dune0slack wetland habitats. Removal of this infrastructure will result in
morphological changes to the system seasonally, episodically and over longer time scales as water levels
rise. The longevity and evolution of restored features with increasing water levels is a primary question
within this alternative that this proposal seeks to help provide further clarity.
The Phased Retreat alternative would either leave in place or partially remove the southbound South
Carlsbad Blvd infrastructure for interim passive or active recreational uses until coastal hazards
overwhelm the repurposed space. Landward of the southbound roadway, both alternatives would restore
the backshore seasonally brackish tidal wetlands and freshwater riparian slack pond system through
grading and revegetation. To support restoration design and aide in the decision making between these
two options, GHD proposes to undertake the following scope of services:
• Assess tidal, freshwater and groundwater influences
• Fill data gaps identified in the previous phase
• Develop a numerical model of freshwater flow and flood events
• Characterize the coastal processes that influence the site form/function; and
• Develop conceptual designs for two (2) alternatives
Task 1: Project Management and Meetings
Work under this task includes time for contract administration and quality control reviews of all
submittals. GHD staff will attend up to three (3) meetings with City and Coastal Conservancy. Meeting
schedule and objectives will be determined once authorized. This does not include time for meeting
coordination or communications with other stakeholders.
Task 1 Deliverables: Draft work products wi/1 be shared at the meetings to solicit preliminary feedback.
Task 2: Site Assessment
The purpose of this task is to gather and integrate supplemental site conditions data and perform
hydraulic and geomorphic analysis to inform the conceptual design.
Sept. 14, 2021 Item #9 Page 18 of 20
DocuSign Envelope ID: CC0BE4B2-ADDE-49ED-9B15-D700634793F2
Sub-Task 2.1: Topographic Survey and Habitat Mapping
PSA20-1135ENV
Exhibit "A" (continued)
GHD will conduct two (2) days of topographic and vegetation surveys to characterize existing
conditions. Existing data will be integrated with newly collected data to support hydraulic
modeling, monitoring, and wetland design. Habitat mapping will improve resolution of existing
and inaccurate data between the railroad prism and northbound S. Carlsbad Blvd and better
define bare earth elevations and ecotone transitions zones. Information gathered will be
integrated into a restoration base map to support design.
Sub-Task 2.2: Encinas Creek Hydraulic Analysis
GHD will expand the existing FEMA HEC-RAS model from the railroad crossing to the ocean. The
model will be utilized to characterize current peak flood conveyance through the corridor over the
current and future range of tidal conditions. In conceptual design, GHD will use the hydraulic
model to evaluate grading and flow alignments for restoration alternatives and evaluate the
potential for structural scour at the modified northbound S. Carlsbad Blvd bridge during periods of
peak discharge. Modeled inflows and tidal boundary conditions will be obtained from the FEMA
FIS. Modeling inputs, results and recommendations for design will be presented in the technical
memorandum (Task 3).
Sub-Task 2.3: Monitoring of Flood. Seasonal and Tidal Wetland Hydrology (Optional)
Under this task GHD would install and maintain a water level monitoring stations at three (3)
locations to characterize tidal and surface water influences, and the depth and salinity of
groundwater in the project area. Continuous and synoptic water and salinity measurements
would be conducted over two (2) 6-week periods representative of wet and dry season
conditions. Monthly and up to 4 event-based measurements would be collected to characterize
flood and seasonal groundwater recession.
Data obtained from this task will: 1) help calibrate the hydraulic model, 2) increase the
understanding of the existing vegetation dependency on surface/groundwater hydrology and 3)
inform restoration design on habitat transgression. The seasonality of this task could hold-up
progress on other tasks and is therefore considered an optional task.
Sub-Task 2.4: Shoreline Response Assessment
To support design and selection of a preferred restoration approach, GHD will develop conceptual
models of system evolution for each alternative. To inform projections of future conditions, GHD
will develop conceptual shoreline response models by gathering and integrating historical and
reference site data with available CoSMoS coastal erosion predictions and site conditions data
(Tasks 2.1-2.3). Impacts associated with both sea level rise and episodic events will be
considered.
Task 2 Deliverables: Methods and results from above sub-tasks will be summarized in the Technical
Memorandum (Task 3).
Task 3: Conceptual Design and Technical Report
Sub-Task 3.1: Conceptual Design Drawings
Following the site assessment (Task 2), GHD will prepare draft concepts identifying design
objectives, opportunities and limitations, site grading, infrastructure modification and expected
habitats. GHD will prepare two conceptual design drawing sheets (plan and cross section) for each
alternative. Conceptual designs will be developed for each alternative to include proposed
grading, infrastructure modifications and habitat types shown schematically in plan view and
cross-section to convey the design intent.
I
Sept. 14, 2021 Item #9 Page 19 of 20
Sub-Task 3.2: Alternative Habitat Evolution and Wetland Conversion Assessment
For each alternative, shoreline response elements identified in Task 2.4 will be utilized to perform
a spatial conversion analysis to characterize expected habitat evolution and wetland/upland
ecotone response under three scenarios 1) constructed, 2) mid-century SLR and 3) late-century
SLR. Each of these scenarios will be compared to existing conditions. The habitat acreages will be
quantified to compare/contrast between the alternatives.
Sub-Task 3.3: Technical Memorandum
GHD will summarize the site assessment (Task 2) sub-tasks and present the conceptual designs as
text and graphics in a brief technical memorandum. The following will be included:
•Summarize information above
•Description of both alternatives with graphics
•Describe evolution of shoreline and habitat types
•Next steps
