(8-2023)

INSTRUCTIONS TO BIDDERS
- 6 -

10.3 Except as provided in Sections 10.4 and 10.5 below, bidders will not be released from their bids on account of error.

10.4 Where the prime contractor asserts a claim of inadvertent clerical error in the listing of a subcontractor, District will allow the substitution of the intended subcontractor under the procedures set forth in Public Contract Code section 4107.5.

10.5 Where the bidder gives District notice addressed to the District contact listed in the Project Administration page within five days of the opening of the bid and can establish to the satisfaction of District that a mistake was made which makes the bid materially different than intended, that the mistake was made in filling out the bid and not due to error in judgment or carelessness in inspecting the site or in reading the plans or specifications and specifies how the mistake occurred, District will relieve the bidder without forfeiture of security in accordance with Public Contract Code section 5100 and following.

11. Bid Analysis and Determination of Responsive Bid

11.1 After the bids have been opened and uploaded to PlanetBids, the Bid Schedule will be checked and compared; and after the withdrawal of any bids as provided in Section 8 above; and after errors in bids are adjusted as provided in Section 10 above, the results will be made public.

11.2 Failure of a bidder to attend a mandatory pre-bid meeting will result in its Bid not being accepted and/or being rejected.

11.3 A bid from any individual, firm, partnership, corporation, or association which prepared, in part or in whole, the Plans, Specifications, or estimates for the Contract will be rejected.

11.4 More than one bid for the same Contract from any individual, firm, partnership, corporation, or association under the same or different names may be rejected.

Reasonable grounds for believing that any bidder has an interest in more than one bid for the Work may be cause for rejecting all bids in which such bidder is interested. However, this requirement does not prevent a bidder who submits a bid from being listed as a subcontractor by another bidder. Apparent collusion among bidders may be sufficient cause for rejecting any or all bids, and the participants in such collusion may be barred from future bidding.

11.5 A bid in which a bid item is left totally blank will be considered nonresponsive and will be rejected.

11.6 A bid in which the Contract Unit Prices are unbalanced may be considered nonresponsive and may be rejected.

11.7 A bid in which the signature of the bidder has been omitted may be considered nonresponsive and may be rejected.

11.8 A bid in which each section of the Bid Proposal has not been completely filled out, or which shows any alteration of form or irregularities of any kind, or which contains any additions or conditional or alternate bids that are not called for, may be considered nonresponsive and may be rejected.

11.12 A bid in which the Bidder DBE Information form is required to be submitted with the bid and is missing, or in which the Bidder DBE Information is not submitted within the time specified in the Special Provisions, may be considered nonresponsive and may be rejected.

11.13 A bid in which the List of Subcontractors form is missing will be considered nonresponsive and will be rejected.

11.14 A bid in which the List of Subcontractors form or the Bidder DBE Information form is incomplete, or the data included therein is inaccurate, inconsistent, of a misrepresentation of the work to be subcontracted or materials to be procured, may be considered nonresponsive and may be rejected.

11.15 The bidder must perform, with its own organization, Contract work amounting to at least 50 percent of the Contract Price. A bid which fails to meet this requirement will be considered nonresponsive and will be rejected.

11.16 A bid in which the Bid Guaranty is missing, or in which the Bid Guaranty surety bond is not signed by the Surety, or in which the Surety has not had the Bid Guaranty surety bond notarized, or is not provided to the District, if one of the three lowest bidders, 3 business days after opening as further detailed in the NIB, will be considered nonresponsive and will be rejected.

12. Award of Contract

The award, if made, will be within 60 days after the opening of bids.

12.4 If the lowest responsible bidder refuses or fails to execute the contract, District may consider the next lowest bidder to be the lowest responsible bidder. (8-2023)

INSTRUCTIONS TO BIDDERS

12.5 The periods of time specified in this Section within which the award of contract may be made, are subject to extension for such further period as may be agreed upon in writing between District and the bidder concerned.

Section 10. Independent Contractor . Contractor is and will at all times remain as to District a wholly independent contractor. Neither District nor any of its officers, employees, or agents will have control over the conduct of Contractor or any of Contractor’s officers, employees, agents or subcontractors, except as expressly set forth in the Contract Documents.

Section 11. Indemnification .

11.1 Contractor agrees to the fullest extent permitted by law to (1) immediately defend and (2) indemnify District from and against, any and all claims and liabilities, regardless of the nature or type, that arise out of, pertain to, or relate to the negligence, recklessness, or willful misconduct of Contractor, or its officers, employees, agents, or subcontractors committed in performing any Work under this Contract or the failure to comply with any of the obligations of this Contract (collectively, “Claims”). The Claims subject to Contractor’s duties to defend and indemnify include, without limitation, a ll claims, actions, causes of action, proceedings, suits, losses, damages, penalties, fines, judgments, liens, levies, and associated investigation and administrative expenses. Such Claims also include defense costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements, expert fees, court costs, and costs of alternative dispute resolution.

11.2 Contractor’s duty to defend is a separate and distinct obligation from Contractor’s duty to indemnify. Contractor is obligated to defend District in all legal, equitable, administrative, or special proceedings, with counsel approved by District, immediately upon tender to Contractor of the Claim in any form or at any stage of an action or proceeding, whether or not liability is established. An allegation or determination that persons other than Contractor are responsible for the Claim does not relieve Contractor from its separate and distinct obligation to defend under this section. The obligation to defend extends through final judgment, including exhaustion of any appeals. The defense obligation includes an obligation to provide independent defense counsel if Contractor asserts that liability is caused in whole or in part by the negligence or willful misconduct of any District indemnified party. If it is finally adjudicated that liability was caused by the comparative active negligence or willful misconduct of any District indemnified party, then Contractor may submit a claim to District for reimbursement of reasonable attorneys’ fees and defense costs in proportion to the established comparative liability of the District indemnified party.

11.3 Contractor agrees that its defense and indemnification obligation under this section, includes the reasonable costs of attorneys’ fees incurred by the District’s legal counsel to monitor and consult with Contractor regarding the defense of any Claims, including providing direction with regard to strategy, preparation of pleadings, settlement discussions, and attendance at court hearings, mediations, or other litigation related appearances. District will use its best efforts to avoid duplicative attorney work or appearances in order to keep defense costs to a reasonable minimum.

11.4 Contractor agrees that settlement of any Claim will require the consent of District.

District agrees that its consent will not be unreasonably withheld provided that Contractor is financially able (based on demonstrated assets) to fulfill its obligation to indemnify District for the costs of any such settlement as required under this Contract.

11.5 Contractor’s obligation to indemnify Distri ct applies unless it is finally adjudicated that the liability was caused by the sole active negligence or sole willful misconduct of a District indemnified party. If a Claim is finally adjudicated and a determination made that liability was caused by the sole active negligence or sole willful misconduct of a District indemnified party, then Contractor’s indemnification obligation will be reduced in proportion to the established comparative liability.

3. Commercial General Liability Insurance. The commercial general liability insurance must meet or exceed the requirements of Insurance Services Office (ISO) form CG 00 01, and must be provided on a per occurrence basis for bodily injury, personal injury, and property damage. The policy must include contractual liability that has not been amended.

The insurance must be on an “occurrence” not a “claims made” basis. Defense costs must be paid in addition to limits. There must be no cross-liability exclusion for claims or suits by one insured against another. The insurance must include a waiver of subrogation applicable to the insurance or self-insurance, a primary and non-contributory endorsement, and an additional insured endorsement, all in favor of the City of Camarillo/Camarillo Sanitary District, its officers, employees and agents, and volunteers; blanket endorsements are acceptable. Any endorsement restricting standard ISO “insured contract” language will not be accepted.

4. Business Auto Coverage. The business automobile insurance coverage must be at least as broad as ISO Business Auto Coverage form CA 00 01, covering bodily injury and property damage for all activities of the Contractor arising out of or in connection with the services to be performed under this Agreement, including coverage for any owned, hired, non-owned or rented vehicles, in an amount stated above per combined single limit for each accident.

Such insurance must include a waiver of subrogation endorsement in favor of the City of Camarillo, its officers, employees, agents, and volunteers; a blanket endorsement is acceptable.

7. Umbrella or Excess Liability Insurance. If an excess or umbrella liability policy is used to meet minimum limit requirements, the insurance must provide coverage at least as broad as specified for the underlying coverages. Any such coverage provided under an umbrella or excess liability policy must include a “drop-down provision” requiring the policy to respond in the event that any primary insurance that would otherwise have applied proves to be uncollectable in whole or in part for any reason. Coverage must be provided on a “pay-on-behalf” basis, with defense costs payable in addition to policy limits. There may be no cross-liability exclusion precluding coverage for claims or suits by one insured against another. The policy must “follow form” to the underlying primary policy. Coverage must be applicable to all insureds under the primary policies. The insurance must contain or be endorsed to contain a waiver of subrogation applicable to the insurance or self- insurance, and a primary and non-contributory endorsement for the benefit of City/District.

explosion, collapse, or underground hazards (XCU); products and completed operations; pollution liability; and contractual liability. These coverages must be specifically included without any exclusions, modifications, or restrictions that would limit the scope of protection otherwise afforded by the basic policies. Any endorsement or exclusion that reduces or eliminates coverage for the above-listed risks is unacceptable.

9. Deductibles and Self-Insured Retention . Any deductibles or self-insured retentions applicable to the insurance policies required under this Agreement must be declared to and approved by City/District. In no event may any required insurance policy have a deductible, self-insured retention or other similar policy provision in excess of $50,000 without prior written approval by City/District in its sole discretion. At the option of City/District, either the insurer will reduce or eliminate such deductibles or self-insured retentions with respect to the City/District’s additional insureds or Contractor will procure a bond guaranteeing payment of any losses, damages, expenses, costs or settlements up to the amount of such deductibles or self-insured retentions.

10. Certificates of Insurance and Endorsements; Notice of Termination or Changes to Policies. Prior to commencing any services under this Agreement, Contractor must file with the City/District certificates of insurance and endorsements evidencing the existence of all insurance required by this Agreement, along with such other evidence of insurance or certified copies of policies as may reasonably be required by City/District. These certificates of insurance and endorsements must be in a form approved by the City/District’s legal counsel. Contractor must maintain current certificates and endorsements on file with City/District during the term of this Agreement reflecting the existence of all required insurance.

CONTRACT
B-3
no material change in the policy, or termination or cancellation of the required coverage, will be effective except upon 30 days’ prior written notice to City/District by certified mail, return receipt requested (except for nonpayment for which a 10-day notice is required).

The delivery to City/District of any certificates of insurance or endorsements that do not comply with the requirements of this Agreement will not waive the City/District’s right to require compliance. In the event that Contractor’s policies are materially changed, Contractor must provide the City/District with at least 30 days’ prior written notice of the applicable changes. City/District reserves the right to require complete, certified copies of all required insurance policies at any time.

11. Failure to Maintain Required Insurance . If Contractor, for any reason, fails to have in place at all times during the term of this Agreement all of the required insurance coverage, the City/District may, but is not obligated to, obtain such coverage at Contractor’s expense and deduct the cost from the sums due Contractor. Alternatively, City/District may terminate the Agreement.

12. Effect of Coverage . The existence of the required insurance coverage under this Agreement will not be deemed to satisfy or limi t Contractor’s indemnity obligations under this Agreement. Contractor acknowledges t hat the insurance coverage and policy limits set forth in this Agreement constitute the minimum coverage and policy limits required.

Should any coverage carried by the Contractor or any subcontractor of any tier have limits of liability that exceed the limits or have broader coverage than required in this Agreement, those higher limits and that broader coverage are deemed to apply for the benefit of any person or organization included as an additional insured and those limits and broader coverage will become the required minimum limits and insurance coverage in all sections of this Agreement. Any insurance proceeds available to City/District in excess of the limits and coverages required by this Agreement, and which is applicable to a given loss, must be made available to City/District to compensate it for such losses.

13. Required Insurance for Subcontractors . Contractor agrees to ensure that any subcontractors providing services under this Agreement provide the same minimum insurance coverage and endorsements required of Contractor. Contractor agrees to review and monitor all such coverage and assumes responsibility for ensuring that such coverage is provided in conformity with the requirements of this Agreement.

14. Right to Revise Insurance Specifications. City/District reserves the right to change the amounts and types of insurance required by giving Contractor at least 90 days advance written notice of such change. If such change results in substantial additional cost to Contractor, the parties may renegotiate Contractor’s compensation.

15. Timely Notice of Claims. Contractor must give City/District prompt notice of claims made of lawsuits initiated that arise out of or result from Contractor’s performance under this Agreement, and that involve or may involve coverage under any of the required liability insurance policies.

2. Work and Material Requirements

2.1 Use of Premises
(a) Contractor must confine all tools and equipment, the storage of materials, and the operation of workers to areas designated by the Engineer. (b) With respect to any premises, tools or equipment of District made use of in the performance of the Contract, Contractor will be deemed to have inspected the same prior to use, have accepted them in good and safe condition and have agreed to maintain them in a safe condition for the protection of workmen while using them during the performance of the Work.

2.2 Materials Furnished By District
Materials furnished by District will be available at locations designated in the Special Provisions, or if not designated in the Special Provisions, will be delivered to a single location of District’s choice within the project area. The materials will be hauled to the site of installation by Contractor at its expense, including any necessary loading and unloading that may be involved. The cost of handling and placing materials furnished by District will be considered as included in the price paid for the item involving such furnished material.

2.3 Or Equal
In the event that an item is called for by a specific product or trade name, Contractor will have 35 days after the award of the Contract for submission of data substantiating a request for a substitution of “an equal” item. In the event Contractor furnishes any “or equal” material more expensive than that specified in the bid form, the difference in cost of such material so furnished will be borne by Contractor under Public Contract Code section 3400.

2.4 Samples
Contractor must furnish for approval, within 35 days following notice of award of Contract, all samples as required in specifications together with catalogs and supporting data required by the Engineer. This provision does not authorize any extension of time for performance of the Contract. The Engineer will review such samples only for conformance with design and concept of Work and for compliance with information given in the Contract Documents. Work must be in accordance with approved samples under Public Contract Code section 3400.

2.5 Warranty
(a) The labor and materials bond must remain in effect until expiration of six months after the period in which verified claims may be filed as provided in Civil Code section 9356, and the performance bond must be paid up and in effect for one year after the acceptance of the job by District in accordance with the guarantee required by Subsection 2.5(b), below. (b) Besides warranties and guaranties otherwise required by the Contract Documents, Contractor warrants and guarantees all Work for a period of one year after date of acceptance of the Work by District, unless a longer period is specified, and must repair or replace any or all such (5-2023)

GENERAL CONDITIONS/SPECIFICATIONS
- 7 -
Work, together with any other Work, which may be displaced in so doing, that may prove defective in workmanship, materials or both within one year from date of acceptance without expense whatsoever to District, ordinary wear and tear, unusual abuse or neglect excepted. The Engineer will give notice of observed defects with reasonable promptness. Contractor must notify the Engineer upon completion of repairs.
(c) In the event Contractor fails to commence the corrective work within 10 days after being notified in writing to do so by the Engineer and prosecute the corrective work to timely completion, District may proceed to have defects corrected and made good at the expense of Contractor who must pay the costs and charges of such corrective work immediately on demand. (d) If, in the opinion of the Engineer, defective work creates a condition that requires immediate corrective work, the Engineer will attempt to give the notice required by this Section.

If Contractor cannot be contacted or does not comply with District’s request for correction within a reasonable time as determined by the Engineer, District may, notwithstanding the provisions of this Section, proceed to make such corrective work, and Contractor will be liable for costs of such corrective work. Such action by District will not relieve Contractor of the warranties and guaranties provided in this Section or elsewhere in the Contract.
(e) This Section does not in any way limit the warranty or guaranty on any material for which a longer warranty or guaranty is specified in the Contract Documents or on any items for which a manufacturer gives a warranty or guaranty for a longer period. Contractor must furnish the Engineer with all appropriate warranty and guaranty certificates upon completion of the Work. (f) For federally funded transportation projects, District does not require a warranty and the applicable bonds may be exonerated administratively.

2.6 Liens
No materials, supplies, tools or equipment for Work under this Contract may be purchased subject to any chattel mortgage or under a conditional sale or other agreement by which an interest herein or in any part thereof is retained by the seller or supplier. Contractor warrants good title to all materials installed or incorporated in the Work by Contractor or any subcontractor and agrees upon completion of all Work to deliver premises, together with all improvements and appurtenances constructed or placed thereon by Contractor, to District free from any claim, liens, or charges. Contractor further agrees that neither Contractor nor any person furnishing any materials, supplies, tools, equipment or labor for any Work covered by this Contract will have any right to lien upon the premises or any improvement or appurtenance thereon, except that Contractor may install metering devices or other equipment of utility companies or of political subdivisions title to which is commonly retained by utility companies or political subdivisions. In event of the installation of any such metering device or equipment, Contractor will so advise District. Nothing contained in this article, however, will defeat or impair the rights of persons furnishing material or labor under any bond given by Contractor for their protection or any rights under any law permitting such persons to look to funds due Contractor in the hands of District, and this provision will be inserted in all subcontracts and material contracts and notice of its provisions will be given to all persons furnishing material for Work when no formal contract is entered into for such material.

2.7 Manufacturer’s Recommendations
Where the manufacturer of any material or equipment provides written recommendations or instructions for its use or method of installation (including labels, tags, (5-2023)

GENERAL CONDITIONS/SPECIFICATIONS
- 8 -
manuals or trade literature), such recommendations or instructions must be complied with, except where the Contract Documents specifically require deviations.

2.8 Certificates of Compliance
The District Engineer may require certificates of compliance with the specifications for materials or manufactured items produced outside of the job site. Such certificates will not relieve Contractor from the requirements of providing materials and manufactured items complying with the specifications even though they have been incorporated into the job.

3. Grading Ordinance
(a) All excavation, filling and grading operations in Camarillo are governed by City’s Grading Ordinance. No grading permit is required of Contractor for Work performed within the limits of the project right-of-way shown on the plans.
(b) Materials, exported or wasted outside of the project right-of-way shown on the plans, are subject to all requirements of the Grading Ordinance. The requirements may include, but are not limited to, submitting a grading plan prepared by a civil engineer, obtaining a grading permit, paying the permit fee, posting a grading bond, hiring professionals for engineering and testing services, compacting fills, constructing drainage facilities, and providing erosion protection. These requirements are the responsibility of the owner of the land on which the material is placed. To ensure that neither District nor Contractor are a party to aiding or abetting any property owner to violate the Grading Ordinance, no material may be exported or wasted outside the limits of the project right-of-way until Contractor has furnished the Engineer a copy of the grading permit or certificate of exemption covering such operation on land where the material is to be deposited.

4. Progress Payments to Contractor

4.1 Progress Payments to Subcontractors
Contractor must pay to any subcontractor, no later than seven days after receipt of each District progress payment, unless otherwise agreed to in writing, the respective amounts allowed Contractor on account of the work performed by the subcontractors, to the extent of each subcontractor’s interest in the progress payment. In the event that there is a good faith dispute over all or any portion of the amount due on a progress payment from the Contractor to a subcontractor, the Contractor may withhold no more than 150% of the amount disputed.

In all contracts between Contractor and its subcontractors, the percentage of the retention of proceeds withheld may not exceed the percentage specified in the Contract Documents between the District and the Contractor.

4.2 Substitution of Securities
Pursuant to Public Contract Code section 22300 and upon Contractor’s request, District will make payment of funds retained from progress payments for performance security, if Contractor deposits in escrow with District’s Finance Director or with a state or federal chartered bank acceptable to District as escrow agent, securities eligible for the investment of District funds under Government Code section 16430 or bank or savings and loan certificates of deposit.

Securities may be substituted upon the following terms and conditions:
(5-2023)

GENERAL CONDITIONS/SPECIFICATIONS
- 9 -
(a) Contractor will bear all expenses in connection with the escrow deposit made. (b) Securities or certificates of deposit must be of a value equal to 100% of the amounts of retention to be paid to Contractor.
(c) Contractor must enter into an escrow agreement that is substantially the same as set forth in Public Contract Code section 22300.
(d) Contractor must obtain the written consent of the surety to the escrow agreement.

5. Time for Completion

5.1 Payment for Delays to Contractor
Contractor will be compensated when any extension of time is granted for delays caused solely by action or inaction of District, which the Engineer determines materially increases or decreases the costs of any portion of the Work. If the Engineer determines that compensation is not justified, Contractor will be so advised in writing. Contractor may then submit a notice of potential claim to the Engineer, as provided in t he Standard Specifications relative to disputed Work.

5.2 Rights of District to Increase Working Days
If such Work is not completed within the time for completion, the Board of Directors has the right to increase the number of working days in the amount it may determine will best serve the interests of District, and, if it desires to increase the number of working days, it has the further right to charge Contractor and deduct from the final payment for the Work, the actual cost of engineering, inspection, superintendence, and other overhead expenses that are directly chargeable to Contractor, and that accrue during the period of such extension, except that the cost of the final service and preparation of the final estimates may not be included in such charges.

6. Construction Schedule and Commencement of Work

6.1 Proposed Construction Schedule
(a) After notification of award and prior to the start of any Work, Contractor must submit to the District Engineer for approval the proposed construction schedule. The construction schedule must be in the form of a Critical Path Method (CPM) in sufficient logic and detail to show the chronological relationship of all activities of the project, including, but not limited to, estimated starting and completion dates of various activities, procurement of materials and scheduling of equipment, work of subcontractors, interface with work by others, and other tasks required to complete the project. The level of detail must be consistent with the complexity of the project as determined by the District Engineer. The construction schedule must reflect completion of all Work included in the Contract within the Completion Time in accordance with these specifications. A construction schedule showing the project complete in less than the Completion Time will not be accepted. The construction schedule must be cost loaded on a monthly basis. (b) If Contractor desires to make a major change in its method of operation after commencing construction, or if its schedules fail to reflect the actual progress, it must submit to District a revised construction schedule in advance of beginning any revised operations. (5-2023)

GENERAL CONDITIONS/SPECIFICATIONS
- 10 -
(c) The baseline construction schedule must utilize the Completion Time included in the Contract and must not extend beyond the number of working days. The baseline schedule must have a date of the first working day of the Contract and not include any completed work to date. The baseline construction schedule must not attribute negative float or negative lag to any activity. If the Contractor intends to complete the Work prior to the time of completion, the intended date of completion must be set forth in the construction schedule and the Contractor must execute a zero-cost Contract Change Order that reduces the number of working days allowed for completion to conform to the intended completion date.
(d) Float, slack time, or contingency within the schedule and the total float within the overall construction schedule, is not for the exclusive use of the Contractor or the District, but is jointly owned and is a resource to meet Contract milestones and the Contract Completion Time.

The Contractor must not sequester shared float through such strategies as extending activity duration estimates, using preferential logic, or using extensive crew/resource sequencing. Since float time within the construction schedule is jointly owned, no time extensions will be granted nor delay damages paid unless a delay occurs that extends the Work beyond the Contract Completion Time. Since float time within the construction schedule is jointly owned, it is acknowledged that District caused delays can be offset by District caused time savings. Therefore, the Contractor will not be entitled to receive a time extension or delay damages until all District caused time savings are exceeded and the Contract Completion Time is also exceeded. (e) If the Contractor has fallen behind the accepted Construction Schedule by more than 15 percentage points based on earned progress payments, the Contractor must take steps, including, but not limited to, increasing the number of personnel, shifts, and/or overtime operations, days of work, and/or amount of construction equipment until such time as the Work is back on schedule.

If the Work done affects any existing road or highway, Contractor must, at its expense, restore it to its former condition or the equivalent thereof to the satisfaction of the Engineer. (6) All Work done according to the Contract prior to its approval will, when the Contract is approved, be considered authorized Work and will be paid for as provided in the Contract.
(b) Entry upon the site without authority will be treated as trespassing. (c) Should Contractor begin the Work in advance of receiving notice that the Contract has been approved as provided above, any Work performed by Contractor in advance of the date of approval will be considered as having been done by Contractor at Contractor’s own risk and as a volunteer unless the Contract is so approved.
(d) Contractor may start the Work at any time after the Notice to Proceed is issued, but Work must begin within the number of days indicated on the Bid Proposal after the starting date for the Contract, or at such other times as may be indicated in the Special Provisions.

If Contractor subcontracts any part of this Contract, Contractor will be fully responsible to District for the acts and omissions of every subcontractor and of persons either directly or in directly employed by every such subcontractor.

Nothing contained in the Contract Documents, however, creates any contractual relation between any subcontractor and District.

7.2 District Consent to Subcontractors
District’s consent to, or approval of, any subcontractor under the Contract does not in any way relieve Contractor of its obligations under the Contract nor will such subcontract or approval be deemed to waive any provision of the Contract between District and Contractor. (5-2023)

Proposed Pleasant Valley Sewer Force Main, ~8,100 Foot Run Along Pleasant Valley Road from ~500 ft East of Las Posas Rd to UPRR, Project No. 10320913 Camarillo, CA

Dear Mr. Kang,

NV5 West, Inc. is pleased to present this report of the limited geotechnical study in support of the proposed sewer pipeline project; The proposed Pleasant Valley Road Force Main consists of the approximately 8,100 -foot-long sewer pipeline alignment that begins at Pump Station No. 3 near the intersection of Pleasant V alley Road and Las Posas Road and continues eastward along the south side of Pleasant Valley Road approximately 8,100 feet to the Union Pacific Railroad crossing. This pipeline construction is the initial phase of a larger ~24,000 - foot pipeline alignment extending to the Camarillo Wate r Reclamation Facility. The invert depth of pipeline estimated to be about 8 to 10 fe et bgs. This report presents the results of our geotechnical evaluation and provides preliminary geotechnical recommendations for the proposed improvements. Based on the study findings , the site is suitable for the proposed improvements from a geotechnical perspective provided the recommendations presented in this report are incorporated into the design and construction.

NV5 appreciates the opportunity to be of service to the Camarillo Sanitary District on this project.

If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact us.

Respectfully Submitted,
