TO: Mayor and Town Council
FROM: Hamid Shamsapour, Interim Director of Public Works SUBJECT: Adopt a Resolution Declaring the Existence of a Local Emergency at or near 195 Pine Drive, Fairfax, and Authorizing the Emergency Procurement of Materials and Labor Without Competitive Bidding, Superseding Emergency Resolution 22-21 __________________________________________________________________________________
RECOMMENDATION
Staff respectfully recommends that the Town Council adopt a Resolution Declaring the Existence of a Local Emergency at or near 195 Pine Drive, Fairfax, and Authorizing the Emergency Procurement of Materials and Labor Without Competitive Bidding, Superseding Emergency Resolution 22-21.
BACKGROUND
This supplement has been prepared because the Contractor (Maggiora & Ghilotti) has submitted a cost proposal for completing the work on the T&M basis not to exceed $481,000. This amount exceeds the Project (Town) Engineer’s initial Construction cost estimate of $260,000.
With action during a special meeting of March 30, 2022, the Town Council of the Town of Fairfax adopted Emergency Resolution No. 22-21 finding, unanimously, that:
1. The recitals in said Emergency Resolution were true and correct; and
2. Finding and determining based on substantial evidence in the staff report and oral testimony the existence of a local emergency at or in the vicinity of 195 Pine Drive, Fairfax.
These emergency findings were deemed to be entered into the minutes of the meeting at which this Emergency Resolution was passed.
On that basis, as documented in said Emergency Resolution No. 22-21, the Town Manager was ordered and authorized to:
3. Provide for the emergency repair of those public facilities in an expeditious manner, necessary to stabilize the roadway condition and reopen the roadway to the public, located at or near 195 Pine Drive, Fairfax; and
4. To take any directly related and immediate action required by those emergency conditions, and to procure the necessary equipment, services, and supplies for those purposes, without giving notice for bids to let contracts pursuant to Public Contract Code Sections 22035 and 22050.
The Town Manager was authorized to let said contract(s) in an amount not to exceed $260,000 for construction and $70,000 for design/construction management costs without further approval by the Town Council and said funding was deemed budgeted and appropriated for the improvements.
The Town Council unanimously adopted Resolution Nos. 22-25 and 22-29 confirming the continued existence of the emergency at its April 6, and May 4, 2022 meetings, respectively.
DISCUSSION
The Town Council previously adopted a substantially similar Resolution that declared:
The Town Manager is hereby ordered and authorized to provide for the emergency repair or replacement of those public facilities necessary to stabilize the roadway condition and reopen the roadway located at or near 195 Pine Drive, Fairfax to take any directly related and immediate action required by those emergency conditions, and to procure the necessary equipment, services, and supplies for those purposes, without giving notice for bids to let contracts pursuant to Public Contract Code Sections 22035 and 22050. Said contract(s) may exceed the Town Manager’s purchasing authority but shall not exceed $260,000 for construction and $70,000 for design/construction management costs without further approval by the Town Council. To the extent said funding is required to be spent from the Town’s general fund, such amounts are hereby deemed budgeted and appropriated for such improvements.
Town staff has determined, based upon the advice and analysis of its design professional, that the action recited in the preceding recital cannot be procured within the not to exceed amounts set forth therein and cannot reasonably be obtained for less than $481,000 as proposed by Maggiora & Ghilotti, Inc. which is less than the design professional of the Town’s estimate of $495,500.
FISCAL IMPACT
To the extent funding is required to be spent from the Town’s general fund, such amounts are hereby deemed budgeted and appropriated for such improvements.

WHEREAS, the Town may exercise its emergency powers under Section 22050 by making a finding, based on substantial evidence set forth in the minutes of its meeting, that the emergency will not permit a delay resulting from a competitive solicitation for bids and that the Town’s action is necessary to respond to the emergency; and WHEREAS, the Town was forced to close a portion of the roadway at or near 195 Pine Drive on March 29, 2022, due to the collapse of a residential structure at that location, and limit travel to residential traffic only in order to protect persons and property; and WHEREAS, the Town finds that in order to stabilize the roadway at the above listed site, to prevent and mitigate loss or impairment of life, health, property, and reopen the road to the public and emergency services, it must act in an expeditious manner; and WHEREAS, the roadway condition at the above listed location on Pine Drive poses a clear and imminent danger, requiring immediate action to prevent or mitigate the loss or impairment of life, health, property, and essential public services; and WHEREAS, time does not permit the preparation of specifications and the solicitation of competitive bids before commencement of the emergency stabilization and road reopening; and WHEREAS, this Town Council previously adopted a substantially similar Resolution that declared in pertinent part as follows:

And,
WHEREAS, Town staff has determined, based upon the advice and analysis of its design professional, that the action recited in the preceding recital cannot be procured within the not to exceed amounts set forth therein and cannot reasonably be obtained for less than $481,000 as proposed by Maggiora & Ghilotti, Inc. which is less than the design professional of the Town’s estimate of $495,500; and
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the Town Council of the Town of Fairfax hereby declares and orders as follows:
SECTION 1. The Town Council hereby finds, by a four-fifths majority, that the recitals in this Emergency Resolution are true and correct. The Town Council finds and determines based on substantial evidence in the staff report and oral testimony the existence of a local emergency at or in the vicinity of 195 Pine Drive, Fairfax. These emergency findings shall be deemed to be entered into the minutes of the meeting at which this Emergency Resolution is passed.
SECTION 2. The Town Manager is hereby ordered and authorized to provide for the emergency repair or replacement of those public facilities necessary to stabilize the roadway condition and reopen the roadway located at or near 195 Pine Drive, Fairfax, to take any directly related and immediate action required by those emergency conditions, and to procure the necessary equipment, services, and supplies for those purposes, without giving notice for bids to let contracts pursuant to Public Contract Code Sections 22035 and 22050 (the “Action Ordered”). Said contract(s) may exceed the Town Manager’s purchasing authority, but shall not exceed $481,000 for construction and $70,000 for design/construction management costs without further approval by the Town Council. Said contract(s) include by way of illustration and not by limitation the contract with Maggiora & Ghilotti, Inc. set forth in Exhibit A, which Town Manager is empowered to enter into subject to minor revisions, if any, approved by the Town Attorney. To the extent said funding is required to be spent from the Town’s general fund, such amounts are hereby deemed budgeted and appropriated for such improvements. The Town Council hereby finds that (1) the design professional of the Town’s estimate of $495,500 for the Action 38072.00001\40110617.4
Ordered set forth in Exhibit B is reasonable, (2) that such estimate is hereby adopted by the Town Council as its own estimate of the reasonable cost of the Action Ordered, (3) that the Action Ordered cannot reasonably be obtained at lesser expense than set forth in the proposal of Maggiora & Ghilotti, Inc. attached hereto as Exhibit C, and (4) that any speculative public benefit that might be obtained through competitive bidding resulting in bids that undercut the design professional of the Town’s estimate by even more than the proposal of Maggiora & Ghilotti, Inc. would be substantially outweighed by the adverse effect on the public that would be associated with the delays caused by advertised bidding and the resulting further extended impairment of life, health, and property caused by an even further delayed reopening the road to the public and emergency services.
SECTION 3. The Town Council shall review the emergency action at its next regularly scheduled meeting and at every regularly scheduled meeting thereafter until the work ordered hereby is terminated. Such review shall be for the purpose of determining, by a four-fifths vote, that there is a need to continue the work. Said review may be conducted as a consent calendar item.
SECTION 4. This Resolution shall be effective immediately upon adoption by four affirmative votes of the Town Council of the Town of Fairfax.
SECTION 5. This Resolution replaces and supersedes Emergency Resolution 22-21.
The foregoing resolution was duly passed and adopted at a special meeting of the Town Council of the Town of Fairfax held in said Town on the 1st day of June 2022 by the following vote:

If the Parties cannot agree on any change in price required by such change in the Work, the Town may direct the Contractor to proceed with the performance of the change on a time and materials basis.
3.2.2 Substitutions/“Or Equal”. Pursuant to Public Contract Code Section 3400(b), the Town may make a finding that designates certain products, things, or services by specific brand or trade name. Unless specifically designated in this Contract, whenever any material, process, or article is indicated or specified by grade, patent, or proprietary name or by name of manufacturer, such Specifications shall be deemed to be used for the purpose of facilitating the description of the material, process or article desired and shall be deemed to be followed by the words “or equal.”
Contractor may, unless otherwise stated, offer for substitution any material, process or article which shall be substantially equal or better in every respect to that so indicated or specified in this Contract. However, the Town may have adopted certain uniform standards for certain materials, processes and articles. Contractor shall submit requests, together with substantiating data, for substitution of any “or equal” material, process or article no later than thirty-five (35) days after award of the Contract. To facilitate the construction schedule and sequencing, some requests may need to be submitted before thirty-five (35) days after award of Contract.

If a proposed “or equal” substitution request is rejected, Contractor shall be responsible for providing the specified material, process or article.

The Town has the complete and sole discretion to determine if a material, process or article is an “or equal” material, process or article that may be substituted. Data required to substantiate requests for substitutions of an “or equal” material, process or article data shall include a signed affidavit from Contractor stating that, and describing how, the substituted “or equal” material, process or article is equivalent to that specified in every way except as listed on the affidavit.

Failure to submit all the 38072.00001\40110774.2
3 required substantiating data, including the signed affidavit, to the Town in a timely fashion will result in the rejection of the proposed substitution.
Contractor shall bear all of the Town’s costs associated with the review of substitution requests.

On or before the fifth (5th) day of each month, Contractor shall submit to the Town an itemized application for payment in the format supplied by the Town indicating the amount of Work completed since commencement of the Work or since the last progress payment.

The failure by the Town to deduct any of these sums from a progress payment shall not constitute a waiver of the Town’s right to such sums.
3.7.6 Substitutions for Contract Retentions. In accordance with California Public Contract Code Section 22300, the Town will permit the substitution of securities for any monies withheld by the Town to ensure performance under the Contract.

Upon satisfactory completion of the Contract, the securities shall be returned to Contractor. For purposes of this Section and Section 22300 of the Public Contract Code, the term “satisfactory completion of the contract” shall mean the time the Town has issued written final acceptance of the Work and filed a Notice of Completion as required by law and provisions of this Contract. Contractor shall be the beneficial owner of any securities substituted for monies withheld and shall receive any interest thereon. The escrow agreement used for the purposes of this Section shall be in the form provided by the Town.
3.7.7 Title to Work. As security for partial, progress, or other payments, title to Work for which such payments are made shall pass to the Town at the time of payment. To the extent that title has not previously been vested in the Town by reason of payments, full title shall pass to the Town at delivery of the Work at the destination and time specified in this Contract.
Such transferred title shall in each case be good, free and clear from any and all security interests, liens, or other encumbrances. Contractor promises and agrees that it will not pledge, hypothecate, or otherwise encumber the items in any manner that would result in any lien, security interest, charge, or claim upon or against said items. Such transfer of title shall not imply acceptance by the Town, nor relieve Contractor from the responsibility to strictly comply with the Contract, and shall not relieve Contractor of responsibility for any loss of or damage to items.
3.7.8 Labor and Material Releases. Contractor shall furnish Town with labor and material releases from all subcontractors performing work on, or furnishing materials for, the Work governed by this Contract prior to final payment by Town.
3.7.9 Prevailing Wages. Contractor is aware of the requirements of California Labor Code Section 1720 et seq., and 1770 et seq., as well as California Code of Regulations, Title 8, Section 16000 et seq., (“Prevailing Wage Laws”), which require the payment of prevailing 38072.00001\40110774.2
6 wage rates and the performance of other requirements on “public works” and “maintenance” projects. Since the Services are being performed as part of an applicable “public works” or “maintenance” project, as defined by the Prevailing Wage Laws, and since the total compensation is $1,000 or more, Contractor agrees to fully comply with such Prevailing Wage Laws. Town shall provide Contractor with a copy of the prevailing rates of per diem wages in effect at the commencement of this Contract upon request. Contractor shall make copies of the prevailing rates of per diem wages for each craft, classification or type of worker needed to execute the Services available to interested parties upon request, and shall post copies at Contractor’s principal place of business and at the project site. Contractor shall defend, indemnify and hold the Town, its officials, officers, employees and agents free and harmless from any claim or liability arising out of any failure or alleged failure to comply with the Prevailing Wage Laws.

The Contractor or any subcontractor that is determined by the Labor Commissioner to have knowingly violated Section 1777.5 shall forfeit as a civil penalty an amount not exceeding $100 for each full calendar day of noncompliance, or such greater amount as provided by law.
3.7.11 Hours of Work. Contractor is advised that eight (8) hours labor constitutes a legal day’s work. Pursuant to Section 1813 of the California Labor Code, Contractor shall forfeit a penalty of $25.00 per worker for each day that each worker is permitted to work more than eight (8) hours in any one calendar day and forty (40) hours in any one calendar week, except when payment for overtime is made at not less than one and one-half (1-1/2) times the basic rate for that worker.
3.7.12 Payroll Records. Contractor and each subcontractor shall keep an accurate payroll record, showing the name, address, social security number, work classification, straight time and overtime hours worked each day and week, and the actual per diem wages paid to each journeyman, apprentice, worker, or other employee employed by him or her in connection with the public work. The payroll records shall be certified and shall be available for inspection at all reasonable hours at the principal office of Contractor in the manner provided in Labor Code section 1776. In the event of noncompliance with the requirements of this section, Contractor shall have 10 days in which to comply subsequent to receipt of written notice specifying in what respects such Contractor must comply with this section. Should noncompliance still be evident after such 10-day period, Contractor shall, as a penalty to Town, forfeit not more than $100.00 for each calendar day or portion thereof, for each worker, until strict compliance is effectuated. The amount of the forfeiture is to be determined by the Labor Commissioner. A contractor who is found to have violated the provisions of law regarding wages on Public Works with the intent to defraud shall be ineligible to bid on Public Works contracts for a period of one to three years as determined by the Labor Commissioner. Upon the request of the Division of Apprenticeship Standards or the Division of Labor Standards Enforcement, such penalties shall be withheld from progress payments then due. The responsibility for compliance with this section is on Contractor.
The requirement to submit certified payroll records directly to the Labor Commissioner under Labor Code section 1771.4 shall not apply to work performed on a public works project that is exempt pursuant to the small project exemption specified in Labor Code Section 1771.4. 38072.00001\40110774.2
7 3.7.13 Contractor and Subcontractor Registration. Pursuant to Labor Code sections 1725.5 and 1771.1, all contractors and subcontractors that wish to bid on, be listed in a bid proposal, or enter into a contract to perform public work must be registered with the Department of Industrial Relations. No bid will be accepted nor any contract entered into without proof of the contractor’s and subcontractors’ current registration with the Department of Industrial Relations to perform public work. Contractor is directed to review, fill out and execute the Public Works Contractor Registration Certification attached hereto as Exhibit “E” prior to contract execution. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the contractor registration requirements mandated by Labor Code Sections 1725.5 and 1771.1 shall not apply to work performed on a public works project that is exempt pursuant to the small project exemption specified in Labor Code Sections 1725.5 and 1771.1.
3.7.14 Labor Compliance; Stop Orders. This Project is subject to compliance monitoring and enforcement by the Department of Industrial Relations. It shall be the Contractor’s sole responsibility to evaluate and pay the cost of complying with all labor compliance requirements under this Contract and applicable law. Any stop orders issued by the Department of Industrial Relations against Contractor or any subcontractor that affect Contractor’s performance of Work, including any delay, shall be Contractor’s sole responsibility. Any delay arising out of or resulting from such stop orders shall be considered Contractor caused delay subject to any applicable liquidated damages and shall not be compensable by the Town.
Contractor shall defend, indemnify and hold the Town, its officials, officers, employees and agents free and harmless from any claim or liability arising out of stop orders issued by the Department of Industrial Relations against Contractor or any subcontractor.
3.8 Performance of Work; Jobsite Obligations.
3.8.1 Water Quality Management and Compliance.

As a condition precedent to the satisfactory completion of the Contract Documents, unless otherwise provided for in the Contract Documents, the above obligation shall hold good for a period of one (1) year after the acceptance of the work by Town, during which time if Contractor shall fail to make full, complete, and satisfactory repair and replacements and totally protect the Town from loss or damage resulting from or caused by defective materials or faulty workmanship, Surety shall undertake and faithfully fulfill all such obligations.

The term “balance of the contract price” as used in this paragraph shall mean the total amount payable to Contractor by the Town under the Contract and any modification thereto, less any amount previously paid by the Town to the Contractor and any other set offs pursuant to the Contract Documents. (3) Permit the Town to complete the Project in any manner consistent with local, California and federal law and make available as work progresses sufficient funds to pay the cost of completion of the Project, less the balance of the contract price, including other costs and damages for which Surety may be liable. The term “balance of the contract price” as used in this paragraph shall mean the total amount payable to Contractor by the Town under the Contract and any modification thereto, less any amount previously paid by the Town to the Contractor and any other set offs pursuant to the Contract Documents.

Subject: Soil Nail & Shotcrete Retaining Wall Emergency Repair This memo provides our current engineer’s estimate for the planned retaining structure to support the damaged outer portion of Pine Drive destabilized from a landslide at 195 Pine Drive in Fairfax.
A concept estimate was previously provided prior to subsurface exploration and design of the repair plan.
Considering site access and availability of construction materials, a soil nail and shotcrete wall repair appears best suited for the site conditions. The new wall will be constructed within the Town’s right-of-way to restore support to the road. The retaining wall will be located along the outboard side of the roadway, will be approximately 72-feet-long, and will have retained heights of up to about twenty feet. Micropiles will be installed behind the initial shotcrete facing to provide vertical support for the initial facing during excavation and construction of the lower wall segments.
The size (extent and height) of the planned wall is more than the concept estimate and is needed to provide support for the roadway beyond the lateral edges of the landslide where the potential for future instability of the steep slope below is high.
It should be noted that the actual constructed extent and depth of the wall may vary based on the subsurface conditions encountered. We believe the current extents and depths are conservative.
We would recommend the project be contracted on a time and materials basis or quantity/unit price basis so that changes in the scope of the project can be made with corresponding adjustments in the project costs.
Our engineer’s estimate for the current project is provide below and appears to generally correspond with our understanding of the Contractor’s cost estimate.

1.0 Introduction
This technical memorandum provides Miller Pacific Engineering Group’s engineering design calculations for the new retaining wall planned near 195 Pine Drive in Fairfax. A previously constructed retaining wall within the property at 195 Pine Drive and below the public roadway failed resulting in a loss of support for the roadway. Therefore, the new soil nail and shotcrete retaining wall will be constructed within the Town’s right-of-way to restore support to the road. The retaining wall will be located along the outboard side of the roadway, will be approximately 72- feet-long and will have retained heights of up to about twenty feet. Micropiles will be installed immediately behind the initial shotcrete facing to provide vertical support for the initial facing throughout excavation and wall construction. The new retaining wall is shown on the Design Drawings in Appendix A.
2.0 Geotechnical Reference Data
Miller Pacific explored subsurface conditions at the site on March 30, 2021 with one test boring.
The boring was drilled along the outboard side of Pine Drive near the proposed wall alignment, as approximately shown on Sheet 2 in Appendix A. The boring was drilled using small, trackmounted drilling equipment to about 21 feet below ground surface. Subsurface conditions generally consist of about 11 feet of soft to medium stiff clayey soils over shale bedrock. Within the upper few feet, the shale bedrock generally exhibits low hardness, friable strength and is highly to completely weathered. The shale generally grades harder and stronger with depth.
Several outcrops of harder, resistant Franciscan bedrock are also apparent on the cut slope along the inboard side of the roadway.

3.0 Retaining Wall Design Calculations
Our calculations for the soil nail and shotcrete retaining walls were performed in general accordance with the guidelines outlined in the FHWA Soil Nail Wall Reference Manual (FHWA, 2015). We analyzed internal stability of the soil nail walls using the computer software SNAIL developed by Caltrans (Caltrans, 2015). Our analysis included evaluating wall heights of 10, 15 and 20 feet using the geotechnical criteria outlined in Table 1. We included a vertical surcharge of 200 pounds per square foot across the width of the roadway to account for loads due to vehicle and other surcharge sources. We also applied a peak ground acceleration (PGA) of 0.35 g in our analysis for seismic conditions. This PGA was estimated using the median weighted average of the 2014 NGA West-2 deterministic analyses assuming Site Class B (estimated VS30 = 760 meters per second), a characteristic magnitude of 8.0 for the San Andreas Fault, and an estimated site-to-source distance of 9.5 kilometers. The output from our analyses is included in Appendix B.
4.0 Soil Nail Corrosion Considerations
Corrosion testing was not performed on the soil and bedrock samples obtained from our soil boring. As discussed in the FHWA manual, “Class A” corrosion protection consisting of encapsulation of the bar in high-density polyethylene sheathing is typically required for permanent soil nail walls in which the corrosion classification is not evaluated. From discussions with potential wall Contractors, we understand that it will likely take several additional weeks to obtain soil nails that are fully encapsulated due to limited availability. While our calculations show that No. 6, Grade 75 bars are capable of resisting the structural loads for the new wall, we’ve specified the use of No. 8 bars to allow for 0.25 inches of “sacrificial” steel to account for potential corrosion losses. This additional steel was calculated using a 75-year design life and the Caltrans guidelines for the rate of sacrificial steel loss in “fill or disturbed natural soils” specified in their most recent corrosion guidelines (Caltrans, 2021).
5.0 Supplemental Services
During construction, we should intermittently observe construction of the new retaining wall to confirm that the wall is constructed in general conformance with our design. This should include intermittent observation and/or testing of the following work items: drilling, installation and grouting of soil nails; placement of steel reinforcement for the shotcrete facing; installation of the retaining wall drainage system; strength testing of grout and shotcrete; and soil nail load testing and backfilling.

Note: Select an effective combination of control measures from each category, Erosion Control, Sediment Control, and Good Housekeeping. Control measures shall be continually implemented and maintained throughout the project until activities are complete, disturbed areas are stabilized with permanent erosion controls, and the local agency has signed off on permits that may have been required for the project Inspect and maintain the control measures before and after rain events, and as required by the local agency or state permit.
More detailed information on the BMPs can be found in the related California Stormwater Quality Association (CASQA) and Cal ifornia Department of Transportation (Caltrans) BMP Factsheets. CASQA factsheets are available by subscription in the California Best Management Practices Handbook Portal: Construction at http://www.casqa.org. Caltrans factsheets are available in the Construction Site BMP Manual March 2003 at http://www.dotca.gov/hq/construc/stormwater/manuals.htm.

415-473-4381 voice/TTY or [email protected] Control Measure General Description
Erosion Control Best Management Practices
NIA Scheduling Plan the project and develop a schedule showing each phase of construction. Schedule construction activities to reduce erosion potential, such as scheduling ground disturbing activities during the summer and phasing projects to minimize the amount of area disturbed. For more info see the following factsheets: CASQA: EC-1; or Ca/trans: SS-1.
1 Preserve Preserve existing vegetation to the extent possible, especially along creek buffers. Show creek buffers an Existing maps and identify areas to be preserved in the field with temporary fencing. Check with the local Planning and Vegetation and Public Works Departments for specific creek set back requirements. For more info see the following Creek Setbacks factsheets: CASQA: EC-2; or Ca/trans: SS-2. 2 Soil Cover Cover exposed soil with straw mulch and tackifier (or equivalent). For more info see the following factsheets:
CASQA: EC-3, EC-5, EC-6, EC-7, EC-8, EC-14, EC-16; or Ca/trans: SS-2, SS-4, SS-5, SS-6, SS-7, SS-8. 3 Soil Preparation/ Soil preparation is essential to vegetation establishment and BMP installation. It includes soil testing and Roughening amendments to promote vegetation grol.Nth as well as roughening surface soils by mechanical methods (decompacting, scarifying, stair stepping, etc.). For more info see the following factsheets: CASQA: EC-15. 4 Erosion Control Install erosion control blankets (or equivalent) on disturbed sites with 3:1 slopes or steeper. Use wildlifeBlankets friendly blankets made of biodegradable natural materials. Avoid using blankets made with plastic netting or fixed aperture netting. See: htt12:J/www.coastal.ca. gov/n12s1Wildlife-Friendll'. Products.12df. Far more info see the following factsheets: CASQA: EC-7; or Ca/trans: SS-7. 5 Revegetation Re-vegetate areas of disturbed soil or vegetation as soon as practical. For more info see the folfowing factsheets: CASQA: EC-4; or Ca/trans: SS-4.
Sediment Control Best Management Practices
6 Tracking Stabilize site entrance to prevent tracking soil offsite Inspect streets daily and sweep street as needed Controls Require vehicles and workers to use stabilized entrance. Place crushed rock 12-inches deep over a geotextile, using angular rock between 4 and 6-in. Make the entrance as long as can be accommodated on the site, ideally long enough for 2 revolutions of the maximum tire size (16-20 feet long for most light trucks).
Make the entrance wide enough to accommodate the largest vehicle that will access the site, ideally 10 feet wide with sufficient radii for turning in and out of the site. Rumble pads or rumble racks can be used in lieu of or in conjunction with rock entrances. Wheel washes may be needed where space is limited or where the site entrance and sweeping is not effective. For more info see the following factsheets: CASQA: TC-1; TC-3; or Ca/trans: TC-1 ; TC-3.
7 Fiber Rolls Use fiber rolls as a perimeter control measure , along contours of slopes, and around soil stockpiles . On slopes space rolls 10 to 20 feet apart (using closer spacing on steeper slopes). Install parallel to contour. If more than one roll is used in a row overlap rol l do not abut. J-hook end of roll upslope. Install rolls per either Type 1 (stake rolls into shallow trenches) or Type 2 (stake in front and behind roll and lash with rope). Use wildlife-friendly fiber rol ls made of biodegradable natural materials. Avoid using fiber rolls made with plastic netting or fixed aperture netting. See: htt12://www.coastal.ca.gov/ngs/Wildlife-Friendl~ Products. 12df.
Manufactured linear sediment control or compost socks can be used in lieu of fiber rol ls.
For more info see tl1e following factsheets: CASQA: SE-5 (Type 1); SE-12, SE-13; or Ga/trans: SC-5 (Type 1 and Type 2).
8 Sill Fence Use sill rence as a perimeler conlrol measure, and around soil slockpiles. lnslall sill rence along contours.
Key silt fence into the soi l and stake. Do not use silt fence for concentrated water flows . Install fence at least 3 feet back from the slope to allow for sediment storage. Wire backed fence can be used for extra strength.
Avoid installing silt fence on slopes because they are hard to maintain. Manufactu red linear sediment control can be used in lieu of silt fences. For more info see the fol/ow;ng factsheets: CASQA: SE-1, SE-12; or Ca/trans: SC-1
9 Drain Inlet Use gravel bags, (or similar product) around drain inlets located both onsite and in gutter as a last line of Protection defense. Bags should be made of a woven fabric resistant to photo-degradation filled witti 0.5-1-in washed crushed rock. Do not use sand bags or silt fence fabric for drain inlet protection. For more info see the following factsheets: CASQA: SE-10; or. Ca/trans: SC-10.

Good Housekeeping Best Management Practices
10 Concrete Construct a lined concrete washout site away from storm drains, waterbodies, or other drainages. Ideally, Washout place adjacent to stabilized entrance. Clean as needed and remove at end of project. For more info see the following factsheets: CASQA: WM-8; or .Ca/trans: WM-8.
11 Stockpile Cover all stockpiles and landscape material and berm properly with fiber rolls or sand bags. Keep behind the Management site perimeter control and away from waterbodies. For more info see the following factsheets: CASQA: WM-3 or Ca/trans: WM-3,
12 Hazardous Hazardous materials must be kept in closed containers that are covered and within secondary containment; Material do not place containers directly on soil. For more info see the following factsheets: CASQA: WM-6; or Management Ca/trans: WM-6.
13 Sanitary Waste Place portable toilets near stabilized site entrance, behind the curb and away from gutters, storm drain inlets, Management and waterbodies. Tie or stake portable toilets to prevent tipping and equip units with overflow pan/tray (most vendors provide these). For more info see the following (actsheets: CASQA: WM-9: or Ca/trans: WM-9. 14 Equipment and Prevent equipment fluid leaks onto ground by placing drip pans or plastic tarps under equipment. Immediately Vehicle clean up any spills or drips. For more info see the following factsheets: CASQA: NS-8, NS-9, and NS-10; or Maintenance Ca/trans: NS-8, NS-9, and NS-10.
15 Litter and Waste Designate waste collection areas on site. Use watertight dumpsters and trash cans; inspect for leaks. Cover Management at the end of each work day and when it is raining or windy. Arrange for regular waste collection Pick up site litter daily. For more ;nfo see the following factsheets: CASQA: WM-5; or Ca/trans: WM-5.

Permit Submittal May 16, 2022
C. Rock: Remove loose material, mud, or other foreign material that will inhibit bonding.
Clean surface prior to shotcrete placement. Dampen surfaces immediately prior to shooting. No standing water shall be visible.
D. Reinforcement
1. Surface Condition: The surface of the reinforcement shall be free of overspray or other deleterious materials that inhibit development of bond with the shotcrete.
2. Secure reinforcement to prevent movement. The use of mechanical splices is permitted when approved.
3. Forms: Use material of adequate thickness for formwork to resist movement during shooting. Reinforce, secure, and brace forms to minimize the effects of vibration during shooting. Construct forms to allow escape of placement air, overspray, and rebound. Use form-release coating material on removable forms unless the formed surface is to subsequently receive an additional coating.
3.02 JOINTS
A. Construction Joints: Taper construction joints at approximately 45 degrees from receiving surface. Form joints by cutting plastic shotcrete. Joints at slab intersections shall be made at 90 degrees. Roughen shotcrete in the joint face while it is still plastic.
3.03 ALIGNMENT CONTROL
A. To establish thickness and plane of required surface, install taut ground wires or other means to guide the nozzleman. Install alignment control means at corners or offsets not established by forms.
3.04 APPLICATION
A. Placement Techniques
1. Use the same shotcrete mixture and equipment that was used during nozzleman qualification and mixture design acceptance for the production shotcrete.
2. Use temporary coverings to protect adjacent surfaces from the deposit of overspray or impact from the nozzle stream.
3. Install sufficient lighting and ventilation to provide the shotcrete crew with a clear view of the shooting area. Suspend Work and adopt corrective measures if visibility is unsuitable for the application of quality shotcrete.
4. Provide a working surface that permits nozzlemen unobstructed access to the receiving surface. Place shotcrete first in corners, recesses, and other areas where rebound or overspray cannot easily escape.
5. The supply of shotcrete material and air pressure at the nozzle shall be uniform, providing a steady, continuous flow of shotcrete with no detrimental surging or pulsing. Maintain the velocity and consistency of shotcrete exiting the nozzle at a uniform rate appropriate for the given job conditions so that satisfactory material consolidation and minimum rebound is achieved.
6. Place shotcrete perpendicular to the receiving surface with the nozzle held at such a distance to produce maximum consolidation of the shotcrete and full encapsulation of the reinforcement.
7. Shoot dry-mixture shotcrete material within 45 min after batching or, in the case of prepackaged material, within 45 min after predampening. Shoot wet-mixture shotcrete material within the time limits in ASTM C94/94M. 3360 - 7
Shotcrete Pine Drive Retaining Wall
Permit Submittal May 16, 2022
8. Apply shotcrete using a circular or elliptical motion of the nozzle while building the required thickness.
9. Use sufficient material velocity, material consistency, and distance from the end of the nozzle to the receiving surface to produce maximum consolidation of the shotcrete and full encapsulation of the reinforcing steel.
10. In corners, direct the nozzle to bisect the corner angle. Apply shotcrete so sagging or sloughing does not occur. Where there is potential for accumulated rebound or overspray material to be incorporated into the Work at congested areas of steel reinforcement, embedded obstructions, corners, and recesses, use a compressed air blow pipe to remove loose material from the Work.
11. Discontinue placement of shotcrete or shield the nozzle stream if wind causes separation of ingredients in the nozzle stream.
12. Do not reuse rebound or overspray in the Work.
13. Remove laitance from shotcrete surfaces that are to receive additional shotcrete layers.
14. Surface preparation prior to the shooting of shotcrete shall comply with 3.01.D.3.
15. Do not apply shotcrete to surfaces with standing or flowing water.
16. Remove hardened overspray and rebound from adjacent surfaces, including exposed reinforcement.
B. Intermediate Surfaces
1. When applying more than one layer of shotcrete, use a cutting rod, brush with a stiff bristle, or other suitable equipment to remove all loose material, overspray, laitance, or other material that may compromise the bond of the subsequent layer of shotcrete. Conduct removal immediately after shotcrete reaches initial set.
2. Allow shotcrete to stiffen sufficiently before applying subsequent layers. If shotcrete has hardened, clean the surface of all loose material, laitance, overspray, or other material that may compromise the bond of subsequent layers. Bring the surface to a saturated surface-dry condition at the time of application of the next layer of shotcrete.
C. Encasement of Reinforcement
1. Place shotcrete to encase reinforcement and other embedments, and provide at least two inches of cover.
2. Adjust air volume, material feed volume, and distance of the nozzle from the Work as necessary to encase reinforcement.
3. Keep the front face of the reinforcement clean during shooting operations so that shotcrete builds up from behind to encase the reinforcement without the formation of shadows or voids.
4. Shotcrete crew shall continuously remove accumulations of rebound and overspray using a compressed air blowpipe, or other suitable device, in advance of deposition of new shotcrete.
D. Hot Weather Shotcreting: Unless otherwise specified, do not place shotcrete when shotcrete temperature is above 95°F, unless prequalification testing in 1.5.1 shows that the required quality of materials can be achieved at higher temperatures. The temperature of reinforcement and receiving surfaces shall be below 90ºF prior to shotcrete placement.
E. Cold Weather Shotcreting: Unless otherwise specified, shooting may proceed when ambient temperature is 40°F and rising. Stop shooting when ambient temperature is 3360 - 8
