RECOMMENDATION:
Approve award and authorize the Executive Director to execute the FrontRunner Forward Environmental Services master task ordering agreement Task Order No. 03 with Parametrix Consult, Inc., with its associated disbursements, in the amount of $1,519,521.

BACKGROUND:
UTA identified nine strategic double track improvement projects to FrontRunner. UTA desires to advance projects through the environmental and preliminary design processes.
In an effort to advance FrontRunner Forward projects promptly, UTA selected a pool of qualified consultants through an RFQ process. Parametrix Consult, Inc. was selected as part of the pool and on January 12, 2022 the UTA Board of Trustees approved a master task ordering agreement with Parametrix. The pool of qualified environmental consultants allows UTA to advance into environmental study and conceptual design.
UTA desires to execute a third Task Order to the master task ordering agreement with Parametrix Consult, Inc. to provide advanced conceptual design services for several of the strategic double track projects.

DISCUSSION:
Parametrix is currently under contract to prepare environmental study for American Fork, Lehi, Woods Cross, and Clearfield Strategic Double Track Projects. Through Task Order No. 3 Parametrix will prepare advanced conceptual design (25% design) for the segments to advance FrontRunner improvements. Completing this work will assist UTA and UDOT in completing the environmental assessment, updating cost estimates, and preparing for a Federal Grant request.
