These materials may be used by CITY as it sees fit.
HOLD HARMLESS
A. CONSULTANT hereby agrees to protect, defend, indemnify and hold harmless CITY, its officers, elected or appointed officials, employees, agents and volunteers from and against any and all claims, damages, losses, expenses, judgments, demands and defense costs (including, without limitation, costs and fees of litigation of every nature or liability of any kind or nature) arising out of or in connection with CONSULTANT's (or CONSULTANT's subcontractors, if any) negligent (or alleged negligent) performance of this Agreement or its failure to comply with any of its obligations contained in this Agreement by CONSULTANT, its officers, agents or employees except such loss or damage which was caused by the sole negligence or willful misconduct of CITY. CONSULTANT will conduct all defense at its sole cost and expense and CITY shall approve selection of CONSULTANT's counsel. This indemnity shall apply to all claims and liability regardless of whether any insurance policies are applicable. The policy limits do not act as limitation upon the amount of indemnification to be provided by CONSULTANT. 25-16466/380237 3 of 11
B. To the extent that CONSULTANT performs "Design Professional Services" within the meaning of Civil Code Section 2782.8, then the following Hold Harmless provision applies in place of subsection A above:
"CONSULTANT hereby agrees to protect, defend, indemnify and hold harmless CITY and its officers, elected or appointed officials, employees, agents and volunteers, from and against any and all claims, damages, losses, expenses, demands and defense costs (including, without limitation, costs and fees of litigation of every nature or liability of any kind or nature) to the extent that the claims against CONSULTANT arise out of, pertain to, or relate to the negligence, recklessness, or willful misconduct of CONSULTANT. In no event shall the cost to defend charged to CONSULTANT exceed CONSULTANT's proportionate percentage of fault. However, notwithstanding the previous sentence, in the event one or more other defendants to the claims and/or litigation is unable to pay its share of defense costs due to bankruptcy or dissolution of the business, CONSULTANT shall meet and confer with CITY and other defendants regarding unpaid defense costs. The duty to indemnify, including the duty and the cost to defend, is limited as provided in California Civil Code Section 2782.8.
C. Regardless of whether subparagraph A or B applies, CITY shall be reimbursed by CONSULTANT for all costs and attorney's fees incurred by CITY in enforcing this obligation.
This indemnity shall apply to all claims and liability regardless of whether any insurance policies are applicable. The policy limits do not act as a limitation upon the amount of indemnification to be provided by CONSULTANT.

The above-mentioned insurance shall not contain a self-insured retention without the express written consent of CITY; however an insurance policy "deductible" of Ten Thousand Dollars ($10,000.00) or less is permitted. A claims-made policy shall be acceptable if the policy further provides that:
A. The policy retroactive date coincides with or precedes the initiation of the scope of work (including subsequent policies purchased as renewals or replacements).
B. CONSULTANT shall notify CITY of circumstances or incidents that might give rise to future claims.
CONSULTANT will make every effort to maintain similar insurance during the required extended period of coverage following PROJECT completion.

Such termination shall not effect Consultant's right to be paid for its time and materials expended prior to notification of termination. CONSULTANT waives the right to receive compensation and agrees to indemnify the CITY for any work performed prior to approval of insurance by the CITY.

CONSULTANT shall maintain the foregoing insurance coverage in force until the work under this Agreement is fully completed and accepted by CITY.
The requirement for carrying the foregoing insurance coverage shall not derogate from CONSULTANT's defense, hold harmless and indemnification obligations as set forth in this Agreement. CITY or its representative shall at all times have the right to demand the original or a copy of the policy of insurance. CONSULTANT shall pay, in a prompt and timely manner, the premiums on the insurance hereinabove required.
11. INDEPENDENT CONTRACTOR
CONSULTANT is, and shall be, acting at all times in the performance of this Agreement as an independent contractor herein and not as an employee of CITY. CONSULTANT shall secure at its own cost and expense, and be responsible for any and all payment of all taxes, social security, state disability insurance compensation, unemployment compensation and other payroll deductions for CONSULTANT and its officers, agents and employees and all business licenses, if any, in connection with the PROJECT and/or the services to be performed hereunder.

Re: Request for Proposals for On-Call Civil Engineering Professional Consulting Services Dear Public Works Department,
Lochner is pleased to submit this proposal to describe our experience and capability in providing the City of Huntington Beach with on-call engineering civil engineering services. We believe our firm's 80-year history in transportation planning, civil and traffic engineering, and construction management and inspection, as well as the skills and experiences that we can bring from having worked on a wide variety of projects over the years, will bring the City the depth and breadth of experience and expertise needed to deliver on-call project assignments.
Lochner stands out as a comprehensive consulting firm, offering expertise in transportation planning, civil and traffic engineering, and construction management. We have provided cities services from the beginning stages of project planning and conceptual design, assisted cities with obtaining project funding, provided a high-quality plans, specifications, and estimate (PS&E) package, provided construction support, and construction management/inspection services. We have satisfied many of our clients with the quality of our work products, responsive service, and sound advice. Consequently, many of our current clients are repeat customers and we are proud of that fact. We have assembled a team that is ready to demonstrate our exceptional qualities to City staff and establish a long-term working relationship with the City of Huntington Beach.
Previously known as KOA Corporation, Lochner has had a strong presence in Southern California since 1987. In December 2022, KOA joined the Lochner family of companies, as a wholly owned subsidiary. Lochner's investment in KOA means that the company now has seamless access to a national team of more than 1,000 transportation planners and environmental professionals, engineers and designers, project managers, construction engineers and inspectors, right-of- way, and drainage specialists serving clients across the United States. KOA's long standing commitment to communities in Southern California, its reputation for responsive client service, and the company's demonstrated delivery of innovative, safe, and sustainable transportation solutions, now coupled with Lochner's 80-year legacy of successfully delivering transportation infrastructure improvements, will allow us to bring a new level of depth and breadth of experience to the City of Huntington Beach.

Prior to completion of the 100% PS&E, we will
pertorm a constructability review, which entails
going out to the project site with the plans and
having a detailed walk-through of anticipated

adjustments to the plans to limit any issues
during construction.
For design plans, we utilize Bluebeam Revu

allows for paperless review, simultaneous
commenting, cloud-based record keeping, and
clean response to comments. We have found
this tool to be very helpful and streamline
review, response, and submittals.
