Mr. Daniel Law January 15, 2003 2 As called for in the existing MOUs, the WQCD, EnecoTech, and Analytical Solutions.com have been • working on re- scoping the remainder of the project, which is to be completed under the remaining milestones. This re- scoping effort involved an examination of the scope of work, budget, and scheduled activities, as well as a reassessment of the expertise that each of the contractors brings to the remainder of the project. The re- scoping was essentially completed December 27, 2002, with both contractors committed to completing the project based on the priorities established by the WQCD. At that time, the WQCD submitted a proposed scope of work for EnecoTech to the Authority. However, your legal counsel advised that the conditions set forth could result in disputes between the prime and subcontractor. You subsequently recommended that the WQCD draft both a second set of amendments to the MOUs for the Susceptibility Analysis project, and new MOUs for Analytic Solutions.com's continuation of the project. The WQCD has followed your recommendations and is submitting the second amendments to both the Source Water and Wellhead MOUs for EnecoTech, and the new Source Water and Wellhead MOUs for Analytic Solutions.com. The following sections will highlight the proposed amendments as contained in the respective Scopes of Work, Budgets, Schedules, and MOUs. Project Scope of Work Modifications The next Susceptibility Analysis Project milestone of CDR involves the completion of the data compilation effort and its integration into a Data Analysis Toolset capable of conducting susceptibility analyses and producing individual assessment reports for all public water systems in Colorado. An • overview of the associated tasks and revisions is as follows: • Task 1: Preliminary Data Evaluation — task completed prior to PDR. • Task 2: Develop Functional Requirements — task completed prior to PDR. • Task 3: Develop Susceptibility Analysis Protocols — reduction in EnecoTech efforts for manual pilot testing of the protocols; no Analytic Solutions.com activities. • Task 4: Public Water System Report Pilot Testing — WQCD lead; no EnecoTech or Analytic Solutions.com activities. • Task 5: Susceptibility Analysis Raw /Assigned Data Development — reduction in EnecoTech efforts to develop assigned default values for the highest priority variables where the raw data are lacking; no Analytic Solutions.com activities. • Task 6: Develop Draft Report Design — WQCD lead with EnecoTech support; no Analytic Solutions.com activities. • PDR Work Task — reduction in EnecoTech efforts to produce a detailed scope and schedule for the remainder of the project; add Analytic Solutions.com activities to complete a scope of work, budget, and schedule to develop toolset. • Task 7: Design Database and Populate — reduction in EnecoTech efforts involving populating the database; re- prioritization of database design and population by increasing Analytic Solutions.com efforts. • Task 8: Develop Toolset Software — increase Analytical Solutions effort to develop data analysis toolset and report generation capability; reduction in EnecoTech activities to communicate protocol algorithm design for the toolset. • • Task 9: Conduct System Testing — similar to the original scope of work.
