3. METHOD OF APPROACH

Project Management

At Kabbara Engineering, the key to an effective management approach is the organization of a highly qualified team of professional engineers, land surveyors and technical support staff. A team approach is applied to every project undertaken, with a Principal Engineer in responsible charge of the project, directing, managing, and acting as the central design figure in the work. Ms. Leah Kabbara, P.E., QSD, will be the Project Manager and Principal-in-charge of your projects and will be directly responsible for all aspects of the project. Ms. Kabbara has over 32 years of experience in the design and management of public works projects and has completed numerous municipal street, pavement, streetscape and other improvement project plans, specifications, estimates within the Southern California area. Mr. Bill Kabbara, P.E., P.L.S., will be the Principal Project Engineer in charge of your projects and has over 33 years of experience in the design and management of various municipal infrastructure projects within the Southern California area.

Quality Assurance

As evidenced in our Experience Profile, and by the quality or our references, Kabbara Engineering has worked exclusively for public agencies, and therefore understands the importance of producing a quality product that proceeds on a predictable schedule, is designed within budget, and experiences minimum construction change orders. Our Quality Assurance Plan always includes formal reviews for value engineering and constructability by a Principal Engineer of our firm and by an external designated construction manager. Also included is a review of all Opinions of Probable Construction Costs by an external designated construction estimator, and comparison of actual recent bid costs on similar projects in the area. Consequently, our project management procedures include safeguards to ensure that the City of Costa Mesa will benefit from a project that responds to all design issues, is completed on time, and receives construction bids that are close to the Engineer’s Estimate.

7 Specialized Knowledge & Equipment

The Kabbara Engineering Team has the experience in all aspects of this Civil Engineering capital improvement design, engineering and construction contract. Our knowledge of local conditions, regulations and excellent working relationships with local agencies and communities will enhance the implementation and successful completion of this project.

The Kabbara Engineering Team also has over 30 years of extensive knowledge and experience with federal and state funding and grant preparation, management, processing and compliance.

Kabbara Engineering assisted the City of Costa Mesa, with federal grant applications for the Active Transportation Program grants which are a combination of the old SRTS, Bike and TEA programs, and successfully ranked #1 in obtaining Measure M2 Environmental Cleanup Program Tier 2 Grant funding for one of the City’s Arlington Drive Bioswale and Dry Weather Diversion projects.

Kabbara Engineering is also very familiar with federal and state funding compliance requirements, and has successfully completed preparation and processing numerous federal funding and grant applications, preliminary environmental studies (PES), E-76 packages, agency invoicing, and coordination for numerous projects over the last 29 years, including those funded by ISTEA, SR2S, HSIP, ARRA 1, ARRA 2, STPL, Prop 42, Prop C, AHRP, Tier 2, Measure M, M2, CDBG, ATP, special tax, and other federal, state and local funding programs.

Each project is designed using AutoCAD workstations. All field survey crews are outfitted with electronic equipment, including G.P.S. equipment and data collectors for direct interface with the office CADD systems.

Infrastructure Premium including Civil3D 2021 and Pavement Sections programs CALAC, are used for typical street and pavement rehabilitation projects' design and drafting. These two tasks are accomplished concurrently, which greatly improves the speed and accuracy of drawing production, resulting in lower production costs, which are passed on to our clients. CADD offers many advantages which include modifications to designs that can be accomplished with greater ease. Uniform presentation and ease of as- constructed plans are some additional advantages.

Kabbara Engineering utilizes the latest in hydrology software and computational methods in watershed modeling. We are very familiar with all of the Advanced Engineering Software (A.E.S.) programs, the Los Angeles Watershed, Rational Method Program (for less than 100 acres), the Modified Rational Method F0601 Program (for areas above 100 acres), and the Unit Hydrograph HEC 1 Flood Hydrograph Package developed by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. In hydraulic analysis and design, we use the Water Pressure Gradient Program (WSPG) developed by the Los Angeles County and the HEC 2 (Water Surface Profiles), HEC 6 (Scour and Deposition in Rivers and Reservoirs) programs, Visual Urban (FHWA Catch Basin Sizing, Detention, Routing) and HY 8-7.0 (FHWA Culvert Design).

Communication between the client and team members is enhanced by digital communication, via the internet, of all related project criteria, schedules, status reports, work products and deliverables.

9 1. Arlington Drive Bioswale & Dry Weather Diversion Project -ASCE 2018 ENVIRONMENTAL PROJECT OF THE YEAR AWARD, APWA 2018 B.E.S.T. PROJECT OF THE YEAR, & OCEC 2018 PROJECT ACHIEVEMENT AWARD

Project Cost: $4,260,000 Year of Completion: 2018

The Kabbara Engineering Team narrowed the east end of Arlington Drive to one lane in each direction, allowing us to meet the funding transportation nexus and create a bioswale to treat the runoff by trapping the primary pollutants of concern (Cadmium, Copper, Lead, Zinc), promoting infiltration and reducing storm water runoff to the Upper Newport Bay, an Environmentally Sensitive Area, and a high priority clean-up area, designated by the Santa Ana Regional Water Resources Control Board. The Kabbara Engineering Team effectively designed the new bioswale improvements to mitigate 100% of the tributary water quality flows, which included a complex series of flow splitting devices that were designed to capture and treat the water quality of “first-flush” surface runoff in the bioswale, while allowing larger flows to by-pass and enter the storm drain system during major storm events, all while meeting flood protection goals under both existing and future development conditions. In addition to the excellent water quality benefits, this project has resulted in numerous outstanding benefits to the community and their public agency partners, including traffic calming and implementation of the City’s Bicycle Master Plan with 1 mile of a new off-street meandering and curb adjacent multi-purpose trail, landscape planting, irrigation, and pavement rehabilitation improvements which serve as safe public access to an adjacent college, high school, middle school, Tewinkle Sports Park, Volcom Skate Park, and the OC Fair. This project also resolved severe flooding issues with construction of a 54” RCP Master Planned storm drain system and improved safety and driveways to the OC Fair for bus and truck trailer access. Access to parks and schools was also improved by installation of a new mid-block traffic signal and 3-way intersection stop to enhance pedestrian safety, and the addition of new diagonal on-street parking spaces to better serve the Parks. This $4.69 million project was delivered on-schedule and under-budget by the Kabbara Engineering design team and fulfilled its public commitment to enhancing water quality, flood protection, traffic safety, access and beautification.
