Introduction
KIT Professionals, Inc. (KIT) proposes to provide the City of Baytown (City) wastewater
treatment plant (WWTP) Texas Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (TPDES) permit
renewal services for the City's West District, Central District, and East District WWI-Ps. The
existing TPDES permits issued by the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ) for
these facilities are set to expire in late October to early November 2023, and the City requested
that KIT assist in the development and submittal of permit renewal applications.
For this effort, KIT proposes the following scope of services:
Scope of Services Tasks
1. Communication, Correspondence, and Meetings — Conduct kick-off meeting and one
progress conference call to review draft application packages. Provide meeting/call
minutes. Coordinate with the City regarding permit application signatures, submittals,
and Public Notices, and attend public meeting, if required by the TCEQ.
2. Prepare TCEQ TPDES Administrative Reports — Task includes development of the
TCEQ Administrative Report (TCEQ Form 10053) and the TCEQ Core Data Form
(TCEQ Form 10400) for each of the three listed WWTPs. These forms convey to the
TCEQ administrative information regarding the utility, the permitted facility, and the
proposed permit application type. KIT will obtain data from the City and complete these
forms, which will be included in the permit amendment application package to the TCEQ.
3. Prepare TCEQ TPDES Technical Reports — Task includes development of the TCEQ
Technical Report (TCEQ Form 10054). This form contains detailed information regarding
WWTP flows, treatment processes, wastewater quality, and effluent discharge approach,
and outfall location. These data information the quantitative aspects of the permit limit
calculations and are specific to each facility. KIT will obtain data from the City and
complete these forms, which will be included in the permit amendment application
package to the TCEQ.
4. Submit and Process TCEQ Permit Application Documents — Task includes assembling
the final permit amendment application package and submitting all required documents
to the TCEQ. KIT will address any regulatory comments and provide permit application
support throughout the permit review process. Support services will include translation of
public notices into Spanish, if required by the TCEQ, and review of draft permit language
and requirements.

Assumptions
This Scope of Work assumes the following:
• The TPDES permit applications will be for routine permit renewals with no process
modifications or proposed construction, and the listed application fee is based on this
application type. Proposed process modification, changes in permitted discharges, or
proposed construction significantly increase the TCEQ data requirements and
associated level of effort and would therefore require additional funding.
• The City will provide the 2018 TPDES Permit renewal applications to be used as
reference during 2023 permit application development. KIT already has copies of the
approved TCEQ permits for these facilities.
• The City will collect and provide all necessary facility infrastructure, operations, and
laboratory analytical data to complete the permit applications within three weeks of
kickoff meeting.
• KIT will provide alternative language (i.e., Spanish)translation of TCEQ public
notification language. However, the City will coordinate the publication of these notices
in local newspapers directly with publishers.
It is further anticipated that each permit renewal will require the following components from the
application checklist:
• TCEC Administrative Report
o Administrative Report 1.0
o TCEQ Core Data Form
o Labeled USGS Topographic Map
o Supplemental Project Information Form (SPIF) and Map
• TCEQ Technical Report
o Technical Report 1.0
o Worksheet 2.0
o Worksheet 4.0
o Worksheet 5.0
o Worksheet 6.0
o Process Flow Diagram
o Site Drawing(s)
o Laboratory Reports
o Pass Through Events, if any
It is assumed that unlisted worksheets, including Administrative Report 1.1, Technical Report
1.1, and associated attachments (e.g., Affected Landowners Map, landowner address labels,
site plan map and original photographs, Buffer Zone Map, Wind Rose Map, and Solids
Management Plan), will not be required.

WWTP TPDES Permit Renewal Services
Scope of Services
November 3, 2022
Introduction
KIT Professionals, Inc. (KIT) proposes to provide the City of Baytown (City) wastewater
treatment plant (WWTP) Texas Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (TPDES) permit
renewal services for the City's West District, Central District, and East District WWTPs. The
existing TPDES permits issued by the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ) for
these facilities are set to expire in late October to early November 2023, and the City requested
that KIT assist in the development and submittal of permit renewal applications.
For this effort, KIT proposes the following scope of services:
Scope of Services Tasks
1. Communication, Correspondence, and Meetings — Conduct kick-off meeting and one
progress conference call to review draft application packages. Provide meeting/call
minutes. Coordinate with the City regarding permit application signatures, submittals,
and Public Notices, and attend public meeting, if required by the TCEQ.
2. Prepare TCEQ TPDES Administrative Reports — Task includes development of the
TCEQ Administrative Report (TCEQ Form 10053) and the TCEQ Core Data Form
(TCEQ Form 10400) for each of the three listed WWTPs. These forms convey to the
TCEQ administrative information regarding the utility, the permitted facility, and the
proposed permit application type. KIT will obtain data from the City and complete these
forms, which will be included in the permit amendment application package to the TCEQ.
3. Prepare TCEQ TPDES Technical Reports — Task includes development of the TCEQ
Technical Report (TCEQ Form 10054). This form contains detailed information regarding
WWTP flows, treatment processes, wastewater quality, and effluent discharge approach,
and outfall location. These data information the quantitative aspects of the permit limit
calculations and are specific to each facility. KIT will obtain data from the City and
complete these forms, which will be included in the permit amendment application
package to the TCEQ.
4. Submit and Process TCEQ Permit Application Documents — Task includes assembling
the final permit amendment application package and submitting all required documents
to the TCEQ. KIT will address any regulatory comments and provide permit application
support throughout the permit review process. Support services will include translation of
public notices into Spanish, if required by the TCEQ, and review of draft permit language
and requirements.

City of Baytown I WWTP TPDES Permit Renewal Services
Scope of Services
November 3, 2022
Assumptions
This Scope of Work assumes the following:
• The TPDES permit applications will be for routine permit renewals with no process
modifications or proposed construction, and the listed application fee is based on this
application type. Proposed process modification, changes in permitted discharges, or
proposed construction significantly increase the TCEQ data requirements and
associated level of effort and would therefore require additional funding.
• The City will provide the 2018 TPDES Permit renewal applications to be used as
reference during 2023 permit application development. KIT already has copies of the
approved TCEQ permits for these facilities.
• The City will collect and provide all necessary facility infrastructure, operations, and
laboratory analytical data to complete the permit applications within three weeks of
kickoff meeting.
• KIT will provide alternative language (i.e., Spanish)translation of TCEQ public
notification language. However, the City will coordinate the publication of these notices
in local newspapers directly with publishers.
It is further anticipated that each permit renewal will require the following components from the
application checklist:
• TCEC Administrative Report
Administrative Report 1.0
TCEQ Core Data Form
o Labeled USGS Topographic Map
o Supplemental Project Information Form (SPIF) and Map
• TCEQ Technical Report
o Technical Report 1.0
o Worksheet 2.0
o Worksheet 4.0
o Worksheet 5.0
o Worksheet 6.0
o Process Flow Diagram
o Site Drawing(s)
Laboratory Reports
Pass Through Events, if any
It is assumed that unlisted worksheets, including Administrative Report 1.1, Technical Report
1.1, and associated attachments (e.g., Affected Landowners Map, landowner address labels,
site plan map and original photographs, Buffer Zone Map, Wind Rose Map, and Solids
Management Plan), will not be required.
