SUBJECT: NOYO HARBOR FACILITIES CONDITION PROPOSAL
SEPTEMBER 2024 3
Scope of Work for Facilities Conditions Assessment
Task 1 – Project Initiation
Task 1.1 – Data Collection and Review
Available information provided by the Noyo Harbor District will be reviewed, including existing privately owned vs Noyo Harbor District owned facility locations, facility uses, property lines, available inspection reports, construction documents, etc. This information will be referenced in the following tasks. Data gaps will be noted, and all data will be tabulated and provided within the summary report Deliverable: Tabulated known information and data gaps attached to summary report.

Task 1.2 – Field Work Preparation
In advance of field work, figures will be developed and hard copies made for reference in the field. Field note worksheets will also be developed and hard copies made. Coordination with Noyo Harbor District, private facility owners (as necessary), and rental boat operator [OPTIONAL TASK] will be performed.

Deliverable: None.

Task 1.3 – Kick-Off Meeting
In advance of field work, a Kick-Off Meeting will be performed with GHD, Dudek, City of Fort Bragg and Noyo Harbor District. This meeting will outline the intended scope of work and planned logistics for the field work. This meeting will be hosted by GHD as an online teams meeting.

Deliverable: Meeting presentation and minutes.

Task 2 – Facilities Condition Reconnaissance Field Work Task 2.1 – Field Work
Two (2) GHD engineers will be on site for three (3) days, including one (1) day for travel and topside structure review and two (2) days for visual review from a boat. Engineers will review the existing conditions visually observable from accessible areas. Observations will include:
x Parcel Number
x Date, time, and tide level while at the facility
x Facility type
x Facility purpose
x Structural type (as applicable)
TO: SARAH MCCORMICK
SUBJECT: NOYO HARBOR FACILITIES CONDITION PROPOSAL
SEPTEMBER 2024 4
x Structural conditions (as applicable)
x Materials used
x Shoreline system (revetment, native slope, etc.)
x Erosion Susceptibility
x Presence of vegetation (eel grass, etc.)
General damage levels associated with likely remaining life of the overall facility will be identified, as discussed in the Green / Yellow / Red ratings above. Field notes and photographs will be taken at each site to document observed conditions.

Both engineers will be traveling by car from the San Francisco Bay Area and lodging and meals is to be provided as a reimbursable expense.

Deliverable: Field notes provided as attachment to the summary report.

Task 2.2 – Boat Rental [OPTIONAL]
At this time, it is unclear if the City or Noyo Harbor District can provide a small three-person johnboat (with or without a driver) for the above water inspection; therefore, GHD has assumed that a boat will need to be rented at a cost of $2,500 per day. This cost is considered optional and will be removed if the City or Noyo Harbor District can provide a boat.

Deliverable: None
Task 3 – Findings Reporting
A summary report will be provided which describes general condition for each facility examined as well as Green/Yellow/Red rating. Each facility current use and ownership as well as any structural information will be tabulated. Tabulated data will be provided both in the electronic document as well as made available in electronic .xls format. Graphics of the determined ratings will be provided.

Deliverable: Draft and Final Summary Report.

Task 4 – Project Management and Quality Review
Task 4.1 – Project Management
The GHD project manager will be Brett Vivyan, PE. Mr. Vivyan will serve as the point of contact and budget/scope controller. Brett will perform planning, execution, monitoring, quality control, and reporting of the project. Mr.

Vivyan will maintain ongoing communication throughout the project and will prepare a progress email for transmittal with the monthly invoice to track the status of budget expenditures, project status, upcoming work activities, decisions and actions taken, and key work activities completed during that billing period.

TO: SARAH MCCORMICK
SUBJECT: NOYO HARBOR FACILITIES CONDITION PROPOSAL
SEPTEMBER 2024 5
Deliverables: Schedule with defined tasks, invoices, and weekly updates.

Task 4.2 - Quality Assurance / Quality Control
Rod Iwashita, PE, will serve as the quality manager for the project and will review all deliverable documents. Mr.

Iwashita has performed and managed many marine structure inspections throughout California and beyond. Mr.

Patrick Miskel, PE of Dudek will oversee the task for Dudek to ensure that the report is appropriate to support the BEVRI plan.

Optional Add-on Scope
While not included in the scope provided above or fee provided below, the following additional tasks may be performed as part of this project or subsequent project(s) at the request of the City with additional scope and budget:
x At the discretion of the City and Noyo Harbor District, a workshop meeting to discuss findings and provide recommendations for future development can be performed. GHD has significant experience in the development of ports along the west coast for conventional (bulk, cargo, liquids, etc.) as well as for new developments in offshore wind and alternative fuels. GHD subject matter experts could provide valuable input to the Noyo Harbor District on likely alternative uses for the existing sites given the known conditions.
x Comprehensive above and/or underwater inspections can be performed by GHD on specific facilities as desired by the City and Noyo Harbor District.
x Inspection of nonstructural components such as mechanical, electrical, piping, or corrosion protection systems can be performed by GHD on specific facilities as desired by the City and Noyo Harbor District. x Conceptual through final design structural design can be performed for future developments.

Optional add-on scope may be performed, as authorized by the City, based on a time and materials not to exceed basis using the rates set out in Attachment A.

Assumptions and Exceptions
As part of this project, the following assumptions and exceptions are made:
x No new geotechnical work will be performed
x No destructive inspection will be performed.
x Examination of mechanical, electrical, and piping systems are excluded from this facilities condition reconnaissance.
x No structural analysis will be performed and no structural capacity ratings will be provided. x The City of Fort Bragg, Dudek and Noyo Harbor District will perform a single round of review and provide a single set of compiled comments for incorporation by GHD into the draft documents to make them final.

SEPTEMBER 2024 6
Schedule
The project schedule will be dependent on the date of Notice to Proceed (NTP) from the City of Fort Bragg and Noyo Harbor District as well as tide conditions. The facility condition reconnaissance is expected to take approximately one (1) week, with schedule of the reconnaissance to be determined within three (3) weeks of NTP.

Draft summary report is to be issued four (4) weeks following completion of the inspections. Final summary report will be issued one (1) week following receipt of the compiled Noyo Harbor District review comments.
