METROPOLITANST. LOUIS SEWERDISTRICT

ORC was award our first on-call contract in 2001 with the Metropolitan St.Louis Sewer District (MSD), and we have since been awarded multipleadditional on-call contracts. In this time, ORC has acquired over 400improved properties on more than 20 different projects, with approximately90% of those properties requiring relocation. In order to ensure a uniformapproach to each of the projects and maintain the possibility of qualifying forFederal Funds in the future, all of the projects were completed under theguidance of 49 CFR Part 24 – Uniform Relocation Assistance and RealProperty Acquisition for Federal and Federally Assisted Programs.

In the past, properties were acquired due to basement back-ups and overlandflooding. MSD determined the most effective means of handling this situationwas to purchase the properties and relocate any occupants. In manyinstances, retention basins were constructed to alleviate flooding insurrounding areas. ORC continues to work on similar projects plus acquiringproperties needed for additional pump stations and tunnels for MSD’s newsewer system.

ORC’s role on these projects has included attending public meetings, projectmanagement, title research, appraisals, appraisal reviews, acquisitions,coordination of closings, relocation assistance and regular project updateswith MSD.

ORC has received accolades from both the client and the public for theservices that have been provided over the past decade.

A separate on-call contract was awarded, in 2012 – when a consent decreebetween MSD, the State of Missouri, and the United States EnvironmentalProtection Agency (EPA) was established - to provide services to acquireeasements. The consent decree requires MSD to address the issues ofoverflows and other sewer systems concerns and outlines a strict timeline forMSD to resolve the issues. As corrective measures are designed, they oftenrequire the acquisition of permanent and temporary easements toaccommodate the improvements. ORC is supplementing the MSD right-of-waystaff to assist in acquiring these easements in a timely manner. Whencompleted, it is anticipated that ORC will acquire easements from more than300 individual property owners.

ORC began its relationship with the Public Water Supply District No. 2 of St.Charles County, MO in 2007. Since that time ORC has worked on more than 30projects and acquired easements from more than 130 property owners for theDistrict.

PWSD No. 2 has grown from a small, rural water district at its inception to thelargest water district in the State of Missouri, serving a population of about 75,000people. Some growth is attributed to acquisitions of other utilities, but most comesfrom the addition of customers new to the current service area of over 400 squaremiles. This area includes the communities of Lake St. Louis, Defiance, New Melle,Augusta, Dardenne Prairie, Dutzow, and parts of O’Fallon, Weldon Spring,Innsbrook, and unincorporated St. Charles and Warren Counties. Due to thispopulation growth, PWSD has had a need for service expansion. It began theaddition of new water and sewer mains while focusing improvement on existing ones.

ORC has provided the District with real estate services for 30 water and sewerimprovement projects.

Typically ORC’s role for the District involvesresearching ownership, preparing valuations,negotiating for the purchase of the easementsand closing the transactions. When necessary,ORC also provides condemnation support bypreparing files and exhibits as well as expertwitness testimony.

In addition to acquiring easements, ORC hasassisted the District in other tasks. These include:

• Preparing right of way cost estimates
