2.0 FINDINGS

2.1 FIELD EXPLORATION

Our field exploration included three hand-auger borings at various locations on the site, as shown in the Site Plan, Exhibit 2.1.1-1, below. We performed our field exploration on May 15, 2025.

The location and elevations of our explorations are approximate and were estimated by using mobile Global Positioning System (GPS) and Geographic Information System (GIS) applications on handheld devices; they should be considered accurate only to the degree implied by the method used.

2.1.1 Hand-Auger Borings

Our field exploration included advancing three hand -auger borings drilled to a depth of approximately 5 feet below ground surface (bgs) at the approximate locations shown in Exhibit

2.1.1-1. An ENGEO representative advanced the hand-auger borings and logged the subsurface conditions. We retrieved drilled cutting samples from the hand auger borings in order to log the subsurface conditions.

EXHIBIT 2.1.1-1: Site Plan

2.2 GEOLOGY

Regional geology maps locate the site in the broad, north -south trending, alluvial -filled Santa Clara Valley. Review of published regional geologic mapping by Dibblee (2005) indicates the site is underlain by Holocene alluvial sediments consisting of gravel, sand, and clay (Qa). This area is known as a seismically active region of California and the site is approximately 0.7 miles west of the southwestern branch of the Hayward fault trace (Dibblee, 2005). The Hayward Fault is known for its potential to produce significant earthquakes.

2.3 SURFACE CONDITIONS

Based on the topographic survey prepared by Sandis and dated April 25, 2024 (Revision 2), the site ranges in elevation from approximately Elevation 113 feet to 118 feet (Datum = NAVD88) and gently slopes downward toward the adjacent streets.

We observed the following site features during our reconnaissance on May 15, 2025.

• Several mature trees throughout the site.
• An existing play structure with a sand area and a volleyball court. • Grass landscaping is present within the western and northern portions of the site. • A restroom structure is located in the northern portion of the site. • Several park benches are located in the western portion of the site. These features are supported on metal posts embedded into concrete.
• Walking paths are present throughout the site and typically consist of aggregate base rock.

2.4 SUBSURFACE CONDITIONS

We generally encountered silt with sand in the upper 1 foot underlain by lean clay with varying amounts of sand and trace gravel to the maximum depth explored of 5 feet. In Borings HA-1 and HA-2, a 2-inch-thick layer of poorly graded sand was encountered around 6 inches bgs. The sand and silt layers encountered in the upper 1 foot appear to be existing fill and likely placed during construction of the existing park . Laboratory tests for plasticity index (PI) of the clay material yielded PI values ranging from 21 to 25, indicating moderate expansion potential. We provide a summary of the subsurface conditions we encountered in the hand-auger borings in the following tables (2.4-1, 2.4-2, 2.4-3).

2.5 GROUNDWATER CONDITIONS

We did not encounter groundwater in our hand -auger borings. The California Department of Conservation, Division of Mines and Geology (CGS, Calaveras Reservoir Quadrangle, 2001) reported that historic high groundwater levels may be as deep as approximately 30 to 40 feet at nearby sites.

Fluctuations in the level of groundwater may occur due to variations in rainfall, irrigation practice, and other factors not evident at the time measurements were made.

2.6 LABORATORY TESTING

We performed laboratory tests on selected soil samples to evaluate their engineering properties.

For this project, we performed plasticity index and wash sieve testing. Individual laboratory data is included in Appendix A.

3.0 CONCLUSIONS

From a geotechnical engineering viewpoint, in our opinion, the site is suitable for the proposed development, provided the geotechnical recommendations in this report are properly incorporated into the design plans and specifications.

The primary geotechnical concerns that could affect development on the site are existing fill and expansive soil. We summarize our conclusions below.

3.1 EXISTING FILL

We encountered approximately 1 foot of fill across the site. We do not have documentation of this fill being placed under engineering supervision, we consider it to be non-engineered fill.

Based on our review of historic aerial photos, it appears as though the site is not associated with a history of extensive development. However, we anticipate undocumented surficial fill may be present on the site as a result of previous agricultural activities. Existing fill should also be anticipated at the site within utility trenches, and at existing subsurface facilities and landscape areas.

Non-engineered fills could undergo vertical movement that is not easily characterized and could ultimately be inadequate to effectively support the proposed fills and planned improvement loads.

Without proper documentation of existing fill placed on the site, we recommend complete removal and recompaction of the existing fills in structural areas that are not removed by planned cuts as part of project grading.

3.2 EXPANSIVE SOIL

The near-surface soil encountered on site was lean clay with varying fines content. We observed potentially expansive lean clay at depths of 1 foot or greater bgs. Our laboratory testing indicates that the clayey soil exhibits moderate shrink/swell potential with variations in moisture content.

Based on our subsurface exploration, laboratory test results, and preliminary project data presented in Section 1.3, we opine that expansive soil present on site should not affect the proposed development. We should be retained to review final grading and site improvement plans, and to observe and test earthwork construction at the site.

3.3 SEISMIC HAZARDS

Based on the California Geologic Survey database this site does not lie within an Alquist-Priolo fault zone, landslide hazard zone, or liquefaction hazard zone (CGS, 2025). Therefore, the risk of these geologic hazards at the site is low.

Based on topographic and lithologic data, the risk of regional subsidence or uplift, soil liquefaction, lateral spreading, landslides, tsunamis, flooding, or seiches is considered low to negligible at the site.

3.4 2022 CBC SEISMIC DESIGN PARAMETERS

The 2022 California Building Code (C BC) utilizes seismic -design criteria established in the ASCE/SEI Standard “Minimum Design Loads and Associated Criteria for Buildings and Other Structures,” (ASCE 7 -16). Based on the subsurface conditions encountered and shear -wave velocity measurements reported for nearby locations ( as viewed on VSPDB), we characterized the site as Site Class D (Default).

In Table 3.4-1 below, we provide the CBC seismic parameters based on the United States Geological Survey’s (USGS’) Seismic Design Maps for your use. When using this table, considerations should be given to exceptions in Section 11.4.8 of ASCE 7-16.

4.0 EARTHWORK RECOMMENDATIONS

As used in this report, relative compaction refers to the in-place dry unit weight of soil expressed as a percentage of the maximum dry unit weight of the same soil, as determined by the ASTM D1557 laboratory compaction test procedure, latest edition. Compacted soil is not acceptable if it is unstable; it should exhibit only minimal flexing or pumping, as observed by an ENGEO representative.

The term “moisture condition” refers to adjusting the moisture content of the soil by either drying if too wet or adding water if too dry.

We define “structural areas” as any area sensitive to settlement of compacted soil. These areas include, but are not limited to, building pads, solar panels, sidewalks, pavement areas, and walls.

4.1 EXISTING FILL REMOVAL

We encountered fill in three of our exploratory borings up to a depth of approximately 1 foot bgs.

We expect that this was placed during the construction of landscaping areas and is unlikely to be detrimental to the proposed improvements. Should undocumented fill be uncovered during site grading, we recommend complete removal of undocumented fill in structural areas to competent native soil, as determined in the field by ENGEO. The undocumented fill should be subexcavated and reworked as engineered fill, as recommended in Section 4.5, provided the materials meet the requirements for acceptable fill in Section 4.4.

4.2 GENERAL SITE CLEARING

Areas to be developed should be cleared of surface and subsurface deleterious materials , including buried utility and irrigation lines, pavements, debris, and designated trees, shrubs, and associated roots. Clean and backfill excavations extending below the planned finished site grades with suitable material compacted to the recommendations presented in Section 4.6. ENGEO should be retained to observe and test backfilling.

Following clearing, the site should be stripped to remove surface organic materials. Strip organics from the ground surface to a depth of at least 2 to 3 inches below the surface. Remove strippings from the site or , if considered suitable by the landscape architect and owner, use them in landscape fill.

4.3 OVER-OPTIMUM SOIL MOISTURE CONDITIONS

The contractor should anticipate encountering excessively over -optimum (wet) soil moisture conditions during winter or spring grading, or during or following periods of rain. In addition, wet soil conditions may be found in excavations. Wet soil can make proper compaction difficult or impossible. Wet soil conditions can be mitigated by:

1. Frequent spreading and mixing during warm dry weather,

2. Mixing with drier materials,

3. Mixing with a lime or cement product, or

4. Stabilizing with aggregate or geotextile stabilization fabric, or both.

Options 3 and 4 should be evaluated by ENGEO prior to implementation.

4.4 ACCEPTABLE FILL

On-site soil and excess soil spoils generated from the site, except the upper fine sand layer, during demolition and site clearing are suitable for use as engineered fill provided they are processed to remove debris, particles greater than 3 inches in maxi mum dimension, and concentrations of organic material exceeding 3 percent by weight.

If reuse of select materials such as asphalt and concrete on site as engineered fill is desired, site-specific breakdown, blending, and placement recommendations can be developed. If desired to reuse asphalt or Portland cement concrete as engineered fill, the recycled asphalt or concrete should be ground down to less than 3 inches in greatest dimension but not pulverized.

Imported fill materials should meet the above requirements and have a PI less than 20. Allow ENGEO to sample and test proposed imported fill materials at least 5 days prior to delivery to the site.

4.5 FILL COMPACTION

4.5.1 Grading in Structural Areas

Perform subgrade compaction prior to fill placement, following cutting operations, and in areas left at grade as follows.

1. Scarify to a depth of at least 8 inches.

2. Moisture condition soil to at least 3 percentage points above the optimum moisture content for expansive soil and 1 percentage point above optimum moisture content for non-expansive soil.

3. Compact the subgrade to at least 90 percent relative compaction. Compact the upper 6 inches of finish pavement subgrade to at least 95 percent relative compaction prior to aggregate base placement.

After the subgrade soil has been compacted, place and compact acceptable fill as follows.

1. Spread fill in loose lifts that do not exceed 8 inches.

2. Moisture condition soil to at least 3 percentage points above the optimum moisture content for expansive soil and 1 percentage point above optimum moisture content for non-expansive soil.

3. Compact fill to a minimum of 90 percent relative compaction. Compact the upper 6 inches of fill in pavement areas to 95 percent relative compaction prior to aggregate base placement.

Compact the pavement Caltrans Class 2 Aggregate Base section to at least 95 percent relative compaction (ASTM D1557). Moisture condition aggregate base to or slightly above the optimum moisture content prior to compaction.

4.5.2 Underground Utility Backfill

4.5.2.1 General

The contractor is responsible for conducting trenching and shoring in accordance with Cal/OSHA requirements. Project consultants involved in utility design should specify pipe bedding materials.

4.5.2.2 Structural Areas

Place and compact trench backfill as follows.

1. Trench backfill should have a maximum particle size of 6 inches.

2. Moisture condition soil to at least 3 percentage points above the optimum moisture content for expansive soil and 1 percentage point above optimum moisture content for non-expansive soil.

3. Place fill in loose lifts not exceeding 12 inches.

4. Compact fill to a minimum of 90 percent relative compaction (ASTM D1557).

Jetting of backfill is not an acceptable means of compaction.

4.5.3 Landscape Fill

Process, place, and compact fill in accordance with Section 4.5.1, except compact to at least 85 percent relative compaction (ASTM D1557).

4.6 STORMWATER BIORETENTION AREAS

Due to the density of the site soil and fines content (percentage passing the No. 200 sieve) generally exceeding 30 percent, the near -surface site soil is expected to have a low - to moderate-permeability value for stormwater infiltration unless subdrains are installed. Therefore, best management practices should assume that limited stormwater infiltration will occur at the site.

If bioretention areas are implemented, we recommend that, when practical, they be planned a minimum of 5 feet away from structural site improvements, such as sidewalks. When this is not practical, bioretention areas located within 5 feet of structural site improvements can either:

1. Be constructed with structural side walls capable of withstanding the loads from the adjacent improvements, or

2. Incorporate filter material compacted to between 85 and 90 percent relative compaction (ASTM D1557, latest edition) and a waterproofing system designed to reduce the potential for moisture transmission into the subgrade soil beneath the adjacent improvement.

In addition, one of the following options should be followed.

1. We recommend that bioretention design incorporate a waterproofing system lining the bioswale excavation and a subdrain, or other storm drain system, to collect and convey water to an approved outlet. The waterproofing system should cover the bioretention a rea excavation in such a manner as to reduce the potential for moisture transmission beneath the adjacent improvements.

2. Alternatively, and with some risk of movement of adjacent improvements, if infiltration is desired, we recommend the perimeter of the bioretention areas be lined with an HDPE tree root barrier that extends at least 1 foot below the bottom of the bioretenti on areas/infiltration trenches.

Site improvements located adjacent to bioretention areas that are underlain by base rock, sand, or other imported granular materials, should be designed with a deepened edge that extends to the bottom of the imported material underlying the improvement.

Where adjacent site improvements include buildings greater than three stories, streets steeper than 3 percent, or design elements subject to lateral loads (such as from impact or traffic patterns), additional design considerations may be recommended. If the surface of the bioretention area is depressed, the slope gradient should follow the slope guidelines described in earlier section(s) of this report. In addition, although not recommended, if trees are to be planted within bioretention areas, HDPE Tree Bo xes that extend below the bottom of the bioretention system should be installed to reduce potential impact to subdrain systems that may be part of the bioretention area design. For this condition, the waterproofing system should be connected to the HPDE Tree Box with a waterproof seal.

Given the nature of bioretention systems and possible proximity to improvements, we recommend ENGEO be retained to review design plans and provide testing and observation services during the installation of linings, compaction of the filter material, and connection of designed drains.

Callander Associates Landscape Architecture, Inc. Sinnott Park Playground 27375.000.001 Geotechnical Exploration

Page | 10 June 3, 2025
Revised December 2, 2025
It should be noted that the contractor is responsible for conducting all excavation and shoring in a manner that does not cause damage to adjacent improvements during construction and future maintenance of the bioretention areas. As with any excavation adj acent to improvements, the contractor should reduce the exposure time such that the improvements are not detrimentally impacted.

5.0 FOUNDATION RECOMMENDATIONS

We understand that lightweight structures such as playground equipment, bench seating, or other smaller ancillary features may be planned within the site. These lightweight structures may be supported on spread footings assuming a firm base is present.

• Maximum Allowable Bearing Pressure: 2,000 pounds per square foot (psf) for dead-plus-live loads. This value can be increased by 30 percent to
include seismic or wind loads.
• Minimum Depth of Footing: 12 inches below lowest pad soil subgrade • Minimum Footing Width: 12 inches

As an alternative, lightweight structures may be supported on drilled piers. Soil design criteria for drilled piers and non-constrained pole footings are provided below.

• Maximum Allowable Skin Friction: 500 psf, ignoring the upper 12 inches of pad soil subgrade in the load computation
• Minimum Pier Diameter: 12 inches or 5 percent of pier length, whichever is greater
• Minimum Pier Depth: 4 feet below pad soil subgrade

For non-constrained pole footings, a minimum CBC allowable bearing pressure of 1,500 psf can also be considered for shallow site soil. Lateral loads may be resisted by passive pressures acting on footing/pier foundations and shear keyways. An equivalent fluid weight of 300 pounds per cubic foot (pcf) may be used to evaluate passive resistance , provided that the upper 1 foot of footing/pier embedment below pad soil subgrade is ignored and the area in front of the footing/pier is level for a distance of at least 5 feet at the elevation passive resistance is initiated. A friction factor of 0.30 may be utilized for sliding resistance between the base of the footing and foundation soil. If both passive pressure and sliding friction are to be used for footing design, one of the values should be reduced by 50 percent. For piers, passive resistance may be applied over two pier diameters. The project structural engineer should design and detail reinforcing steel based on the anticipated structural loads.

6.0 PAVEMENT RECOMMENDATIONS

6.1 RIGID PAVEMENT

If the existing concrete walkway around the playground is planned to be replaced as part of playground improvements, for hardscape exposed to foot traffic only, a 4-inch-thick concrete section over a minimum of 4 inches of aggregate base on prepared subgra de, in conformance with the compaction specifications in Section 4.5, may be utilized. Thicken flatwork edges to at least 8 inches to help control moisture variations in the subgrade and place wire mesh or rebar within the middle third of the slab to help control the width and offset of cracks. Construct control and construction

Page | 11 June 3, 2025
Revised December 2, 2025
joints in accordance with current Portland Cement Association Guidelines. Including wire mesh or steel rebar reinforcement will improve the performance of the concrete hardscape and decrease ongoing maintenance requirements.

6.2 DECOMPOSED GRANITE WALKWAYS

Non-paved walkways consisting of decomposed granite (DG) subject only to pedestrian -type traffic should comply with the following minimum requirements.

• The decomposed granite surface should be a minimum of 4 inches thick and a polymer binder should be applied.
• The surface layer should be underlain by at least 6 inches of compacted aggregate base over processed subgrade soil.

It should be noted that DG surfaces typically require some maintenance, such as filling in ruts or replacing DG eroded by wind or rain. Refer to Section 4.5 for relative compaction and moisture content specifications for subgrade and aggregate base.

7.0 LIMITATIONS AND UNIFORMITY OF CONDITIONS

This report presents geotechnical recommendations for design of the improvements discussed in Section 1.3 for the Sinnott Park Playground project. If changes occur in the nature or design of the project, we should be allowed to review this report and provide additional recommendations, if any. It is the responsibility of the owner to transmit the information and recommendations of this report to the appropriate organizations or people involved in design of the project, including but not limited to owners, architects, engineers, and designers. Th e conclusions and recommendations contained in this report are solely professional opinions and are valid fo r a period of no more than 2 years from the date of report issuance.

We strive to perform our professional services in accordance with generally accepted principles and practices currently employed in the area; there is no warranty, express or implied. There are risks of earth movement and property damages inherent in building on or with earth materials.

We are unable to eliminate all risks; therefore, we are unable to guarantee or warrant the results of our services.

This report is based upon field and other conditions discovered at the time of report preparation.

We developed this report with limited subsurface exploration data. We assumed that ou r subsurface exploration data are representative of the actual subsurface conditions across the site. Considering possible underground variability of soil and groundwater, additional costs may be required to complete the project. We recommend that the owner establish a contingency fund to cover such costs. If unexpected condit ions are encountered, ENGEO must be notified immediately to review these conditions and provide additional and/or modified recommendations, as necessary.

Our services did not include excavation sloping or shoring, soil volume change factors, flood potential, or a geohazard exploration. In addition, our geotechnical exploration did not include work to determine the existence of possible hazardous materials. If any hazardous materials are encountered during construction, the proper regulatory officials must be notified immediately.

This document must not be subject to unauthorized reuse , that is, reusing without written authorization of ENGEO. Such authorization is essential because it requires ENGEO to evaluate the document’s applicability given new circumstances, not the least of which is passage of time.

Actual field or other conditions will necessitate clarifications, adjustments, modifications, or other changes to ENGEO’s documents. Therefore, ENGEO must be engaged to prepare the necessary clarifications, adjustments, modifications, or other changes before construction activities commence or further activity proceeds. If ENGEO’s scope of services does not include on -site construction observation, or if other persons or entities are retained to provide such services, ENGEO cannot be held responsible for an y or all claims arising from or resulting from the performance of such services by other persons or entities, and from any or all claims arising from or resulting from clarifications, adjustments, modifications, discrepancies , or other changes necessary to reflect changed field or other conditions.

We determined the lines designating the interface between layers on the exploration logs using visual observations. The transition between the materials may be abrupt or gradual. The exploration logs contain information concerning samples recovered, indications of the presence of various materials such as clay, sand, silt, rock, existing fill, etc., and observations of groundwater encountered. The field logs also contain our interpretation of the subsurface conditions between sample locations. Therefore, the logs contain both factual and interpretative information. Our recommendations are based on the contents of the final logs , which represent our interpretation of the field logs.

The market value of the securities at the time of the substitution shall be at least equal to the cash amount then required to be withheld as retention under the terms of the Contract between the Owner and Contractor. Securities shall be held in the name of Owner and shall designate the Contractor as the beneficial owner.

(2) The Owner shall make progress payments to the Contractor for those funds which otherwise would be withheld from progress payments pursuant to the Contract provisions, provided that the Escrow Agent holds securities in the form and amount specified above.

(3) When the Owner makes payment of retentions earned directly to the Escrow Agent, the Escrow Agent shall hold them for the benefit of the Contractor until the time that the escrow created under this contract is terminated. The Contractor may direct the investment of the payments into securities. All terms and conditions of this agreement and the rights and responsibilities of the parties shall be equally applicable and binding when the Owner pays the Escrow Agent directly.

(4) Contractor shall be responsible for paying all fees for the expenses incurred by Escrow Agent in administering the Escrow Account and all expenses of the Owner. These expenses and payment terms shall be determined by the Owner, Contractor, and Escrow Agent.

(5) The interest earned on the securities or the money market accounts held in escrow and all interest earned on that interest shall be for the sole account of Contractor and shall be subject to withdrawal by Contractor at any time and from time to time without notice to the Owner.

(6) Contractor shall have the right to withdraw all or any part of the principal in the Escrow Account only by written notice to Escrow Agent accompanied by written authorization from the Owner to the Escrow Agent that Owner consents to the withdrawal of the amount sought to be withdrawn by Contractor.

(8) Upon receipt of written notification from the Owner certifying that the Contract is final and complete, and that the Contractor has complied with all requirements and procedures applicable to the Contract, Escrow Agent shall release to Contractor all securities and interest on deposit less escrow fees and charges of the Escrow Account. The escrow shall be closed immediately upon disbursement of all moneys and securities on deposit and payments of fees and charges.

(9) Escrow Agent shall rely on the written notifications from the Owner and the Contractor pursuant in Sections (5) to (8), inclusive, of this Agreement and the Owner and Contractor shall hold Escrow Agent harmless from Escrow Agent’s release and disbursement of the securities and interest as set forth above.

I understand that this application is for temporary recycled water (through a construction meter) for the sole purpose of construction work at the address/location stated above and intended for use with the City of Milpitas’s fill-station sites. I further understand that the City has the right to remove the construction meter without prior notice if the meter is being used in an improper manner as determined by the City and will discontinue any water service to the properties until permanent water service is established. Time period for use of construction meter will expire upon the following (whichever occurs first): 1) 12 months, 2) Expiration of the permit, 3) Completion of the permitted work, or 4) Permanent water service is established. I also understand that the water supplied through the meter may be subject to frequent or indefinite interruptions at any time by the City.

I also understand that I am responsible for this meter and its usage until I give proper written notification to the City that the meter is to be removed and the City has the meter back in its possession. I also understand that I will operate the meter in a responsible manner so as not to cause damage to the meter and/or the water system and agree to be held accountable for any and all damage caused from improper operation of the meter. A missing or stolen water meter will be assessed at the current replacement rate. Payment for the meter replacement must be made at Milpitas City Hall before re-installation. I also understand that by the City issuing this temporary meter, this action in no way obligates the City to provide me with permanent water service to the subject property. I agree to place a deposit of $2,000 for the loan of the meter. I agree to forfeit part or all of the deposit to pay for any damage to the meter during the term of this agreement, and to forfeit the deposit in full if the meter is not returned on or before the expiration date. I understand that the deposit, less the water use and meter charges, will be returned upon return of the meter in satisfactory and working condition. No interest shall be paid on the deposited amount. Should water charges exceed the deposit amount, I agree to pay the additional charges upon demand. I agree to abide by all rules and regulations of the City of Milpitas Public Works Department and to pay a monthly meter charge of $ for each full or partial calendar month the meter is used, and to pay for all water used at the commercial rate in effect at the time ($ per hundred cubic foot and $ per unit for capital surcharge). If a water rate increase is approved during the rental period, the new rates will be in effect. In the event that I fail to keep satisfactory records, I agree to pay the City on the basis of an estimate made by the Accounting Officer of the City of Milpitas. I understand that a copy of this permit must be kept on hand at all times by the person taking water and must be available to show as evidence to any authorized representative of the City of Milpitas that a permit has been obtained.

PLEASE WASH YOUR HANDS AFTER USING RECYCLED WATER

South Bay Water Recycling
Recycled Water Access Point Program
Fact Sheet

Expanding Recycled Water Use with Recycled Water Access Points (RWAP) To conserve our valuable drinking (potable) water supplies, South Bay Water Recycling (SBWR) has made recycled water available for commercial non-potable uses at several truck fill locations in San José and Milpitas. State Approved uses include construction activities such as grading, compaction, concrete wetting, and dust control as well as landscape irrigation, pressure washing, and sewer flushing.

Recycled Water Quality
Recycled water is highly treated to meet rigorous and protective standards set by the State Water Resources Control Board – Division of Drinking Water, and SBWR currently supplies clean and safe tertiary-treated recycled water to over 750 customers in San Jose, Milpitas and Santa Clara.

Participation Requirements
Users must complete a short Training and sign a User Agreement to confirm the correct use of the fill stations and the proper handling of recycled water. In addition, trucks must be inspected and labeled to certify that they are correctly equipped to transfer recycled water.

After truck and driver certification, users will be issued a portable recycled water meter, with a unique nozzle that can only fit the RWAP hydrants. This minimizes the possibility of cross- connections between the potable and recycled water distribution systems.

Construction exemptions for required use of recycled water may be granted on a case by case basis, depending on the availability of recycled water near the project site. Please contact the City Planning Department for more information on the required use of recycled water for proposed projects.

Getting Started
In order to complete the certification process, and receive meters, site keys, and the most updated site maps, please contact the recycled water retail agencies listed below:

Milpitas – call (408) 586-2600
San Jose –call (408) 277-3671

RWAP Supervisor Trainings are scheduled every Wednesday morning from 9am-11am at the San Jose/Santa Clara Regional Wastewater Facility (700 Los Esteros Road in San José) or by appointment. Contact the City of Milpitas for trainings and inspections in their area.

FAQs

1. What is a Recycled Water Access Point?
A Recycled Water Access Point (or RWAP) is a stand-pipe that allows a certified RWAP Supervisor access to recycled water to fill their tanker truck.

2. How can I get locations and information about using recycled water from an RWAP? Please contact your local water retailer or South Bay Water Recycling for availability in your area.

City of Milpitas – (408) 586-2600
City of San José – South Bay Water Recycling (408) 277-3671

3. What are the uses for recycled water?
Recycled water is approved for nonpotable (non drinking) uses such as irrigation, dust control, and street sweeping

4. Can I use recycled water to irrigate my landscape at home? No. Recycled Water is approved only for commercial (non-residential) uses.

5. Can I drink recycled water?
No.

At this time, recycled water is not approved for drinking.

6. Do I have to use recycled water?
The use of recycled water is required by many city ordinances if recycled water is available. Visit your local city’s planning department for availability in your area.

7. Where does recycled water come from?
Recycled water is produced from treated wastewater from the San Jose/Santa Clara Regional Wastewater Facility.

8. Why is recycled water regulated more than potable (drinking) water? Recycled water is safe to use by trained personnel to assure it is used appropriately and that the public drinking water supply is separated and protected from contamination.

9. Are there any rules I need to follow when using recycled water? Recycled water has not been treated and disinfected for drinking. The use of recycled water is therefore regulated by the State of California Division of Drinking Water, State Water Resources Control Board to ensure that the public health and potable water supply are separated and protected from contamination. To assure that the use is appropriate, the State has required that users be trained, vehicles and sites are inspected and certified, and appropriate safeguards are in place to protect public health.

10. Do I have to use a special container?
All containers must be properly labeled, per the SBWR RWAP User Agreement. Recycled water is only distributed to certified RWAP Supervisors with registered trucks that have been inspected.

11. Can I store recycled water at my site or commercial business? Yes. Recycled water can be stored on site, with appropriate signage and use management per the User Agreement.

12. Do I have to get certified in multiple cities or will one certification work at all SBWR locations? Recycled Water Access Point Supervisors can be trained and registered at any qualified SBWR water agency.

13. Can I take the recycled water I picked up in one city and take it to another city? Yes. Recycled water purchased from one city may be used in a different city.

14. Can I use a potable meter to access recycled water or do I have to get a special meter? The RWAP meter is different from a potable water meter, so you must use a recycled water RWAP meter when accessing recycled water.

15. Do I need to clean my tank or container before filling it with potable water? Recycled water trucks must be certified and registered to carry water for nonpotable uses only.

16. What if I have multiple tanker trucks?
All trucks must be inspected and registered with SBWR.

17. How much does recycled water cost?
Please contact your water retailer for prices and availability.

18. How do I report my recycled water usage and pay?
It will vary depending on recycled water retailer. Please see your local recycled water retailer for specifics.

AGENDA REPORT
(AR)

Item Title: Authorize the City Manager, or Designee, to Negotiate and Execute an Agreement with Environmental Innovations, Inc. for Stormwater Inspection Services (Staff Contact: Luz Cofresí-Howe, Finance Director, 408-586-3111; and Christian Di Renzo, Public Works Director, 408-586-2602) Category: Consent Calendar-Community Services and Sustainable Infrastructure Meeting Date: 4/7/2026
Recommendation: Authorize the City Manager, or designee, to negotiate and execute a Professional Services Agreement with Environmental Innovations, Inc., for Stormwater Inspection Services for a five-year term and a total amount not-to-exceed of $376,180, subject to the appropriation of funds.

BACKGROUND:

The City is required to conduct stormwater inspections at commercial and industrial facilities as part of the Industrial and Commercial Site Controls Program as outlined in provision C.4. of the Municipal Regional Stormwater Permit (MRP), Order No. R2-2022-0018 NPDES, Permit No. CAS612008 issued by the San Francisco Bay Regional Water Quality Control Board on May 11, 2022. The Permit governs stormwater discharges from 76 municipal jurisdictions and focuses on trash reduction, green infrastructure, and controlling pollutants from entering local waterways and the San Francisco Bay. Provision C.4. of the Permit mandates rigorous industrial and commercial site controls to minimize and prevent stormwater pollutants, including inspections at high-priority sites such as industrial and commercial facilities, to verify compliance with stormwater pollution prevention requirements. To comply with the Order, the City conducts over 300 inspections per fiscal year.

ANALYSIS:

On December 19, 2025, the City released a Request for Proposal (RFP 25-1182) for Stormwater Inspection Services at Commercial and Industrial Facilities.

The RFP was publicly noticed on City’s website and OpenGov, the City’s e-procurement website, in accordance with City Municipal Code. Upon release, 6,956 companies were notified of the RFP, and 63 companies downloaded the RFP documents. Two vendors submitted a bid response by the published closing date of January 28, 2026.

The RFP was evaluated and scored according to the criteria specified in the solicitation. Final evaluation scores for the two proposers were as follows:

References 5% 5 4
Total 100.00% 96 88

POLICY ALTERNATIVE(S):

Alternative 1: Do not approve and award the agreement to Environmental Innovations, Inc.

Pros: The City would not incur these expenses.

Cons: Not awarding the contract would result in increased administrative burden associated with re-issuing the solicitation, extended timeline for contractor selection, and delays in ensuring compliance.

Reason for Not Recommending: Annual stormwater inspections of commercial and industrial facilities are required under the Municipal Regional Stormwater Permit (MRP) as outlined in Provision C.4. Not awarding the contract will result in noncompliance with these mandated inspection requirements as inspections will not be completed by the inspection deadline. Conducting these inspections exceeds existing staff capacity and creates a resource gap due to in-house personnel current workload constraints. These contracted services are required to ensure the City meets its compliance requirements for provision C.4. of the MRP.

FISCAL IMPACT:

Funding for the annual C.4. Stormwater Inspection Services is part of the base Public Works Operating Budget in the Department of Public Works. As such, there is no fiscal impact associated with this proposal.

CALIFORNIA ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY ACT (CEQA):

The project is an action taken by the City to enforce permits for use issued, adopted, or prescribed by the City or enforcement of a law, general rule, standard, or objective, administered, or adopted by the City and is exempt from CEQA pursuant to Cal. Code Regs., tit. 14, § 15321. The action has no potential for resulting in either a direct physical change in the environment, or a reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment and is not a project pursuant to Pub. Resources Code, § 21065 and Cal. Code Regs., tit. 14, § 15378. Even if a project, the action is exempt from further CEQA review pursuant to Cal. Code Regs., tit. 14, § 15061(b)(3) as it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the activity in question may have a significant effect on the environment.

AGENDA REPORT
(AR)

Item Title: Approve and Authorize the City Manager, or Designee, to Execute Agreements with Quality Assurance Engineering, Inc. and Achievement Engineering Corp., for On-Call Inspection Services (Staff Contact: Christian Di Renzo, Public Works Director, 408-586-2602; and Michael Silveira, City Engineer, 408-586- 3303)
Category: Consent Calendar-Community Development
Meeting Date: 4/7/2026
Recommendation: Approve and authorize the City Manager, or designee, to execute Professional Service Agreements with Quality Assurance Engineering, Inc., in an amount not to exceed $700,000 and Achievement Engineering Corp. in an amount not to exceed $300,000 for on-call inspection services for a five-year term.

BACKGROUND:

The inspection division of the Public Works Department manages the inspection of public improvements within the City right-of-way for private development and encroachment permits, and capital improvement projects.

Inspectors’ primary focus is to ensure the construction of new public improvements are in accordance with approved plans and specifications, permit requirements, and City guidelines and standards. Special inspections and material testing (Services) are generally required to ensure that construction materials and workmanship complies with project requirements thereby protecting the City and public from deficient material and workmanship, ensuring structural integrity, and providing independent quality assurance for critical activities of construction such as, but not limited to, asphalt pavement placement, building/structure related construction, concrete forming and placement, compaction of soil and material of utility trenches, utility installation, welding, etc. Since these Services require specialized equipment and certificated laboratories and technicians for testing, the City is not equipped to perform these functions and must retain qualified firm(s).

As part of the On-Call Inspection Services Professional Service Agreement (Agreement), the qualified firm will also provide staff augmentation to meet the fluctuating inspection demands associated with both private development and capital improvement projects which typically vary throughout the year and intensify during peak construction period from March to October. Staff augmentation is typically required for, but not limited to, the City’s annual street resurfacing project that requires extended inspection support, night and weekend work for PG&E and water main shutdowns, and cover for anticipated and unanticipated leave by staff during any given time.

This type of Agreement has been in place in the City since 2000 and has proven to be very effective in supporting the workload of the Inspection Division of the Public Works Department to ensure new infrastructure is constructed according to approved plans and specifications and City guidelines and standards. The current five-year Agreement, which will expire this year, was budgeted at $1 million, of which approximately $600,000 has been expended, for an average of approximately $120,000 per year.

On August 12, 2025, staff held a Meet and Confer meeting with the LiUNA representative and ProTech union to discuss the solicitation. On August 20, 2025, LiUNA representative confirmed the ProTech union did not object to the Department’s request to obtain a qualified firm(s) to provide services for special inspection, material testing, and staff augmentation.

ANALYSIS:

In accordance with City Municipal Code Section I-2-3.10 - Request for Qualification (RFQa) Procedure, an RFQa was posted on the City’s eProcurement system, OpenGov Procurement on September 8, 2025, to seek a qualified firm with expertise in providing special inspection, material testing, and staff augmentation to support the Inspection Division of the Public Works Department. The scope of work is more detailed in Exhibit A of the Agreement (Attachments A & B).

Upon release, seventy-six (76) firms downloaded the RFQa document, and thirteen (13) firms submitted proposals by the published closing date of October 10, 2025. Each proposal was evaluated and scored according to the criteria outlined in the solicitation. The following table summarizes the rating of each proposer.

In accordance with City Municipal Code Section I-2-3.13 – Contracting for Consultants, staff recommends that the City Council authorize the City Manager, or designee, to execute a Professional Service Agreement with Quality Assurance Engineering, Inc., (dba Consolidated Engineering Laboratories [CEL]) in the amount not-to- exceed of $700,000 and Achievement Engineering Corp. (AEC) in the amount not-to-exceed $300,000 for a five-year term to provide special inspection, material testing, and staff augmentation services.

The selected firms will be utilized on an as-needed basis and staff will provide a work order based on the scope of work and their availability. Award of these Agreements does not guarantee work, but the selected firm will remain available to perform services upon request for an authorized amount during the term of the Agreement. Having multiple Agreements in place will provide staff the flexibility in selecting a firm for a specific project or work order.

POLICY ALTERNATIVE(S):

Alternative 1: Not approving the Agreements with CEL and AEC.

Pros: None

Cons: Special inspections and materials testing services are required to ensure City infrastructure is constructed in compliance with approved plans and specifications, permit requirements, and City guidelines and standards. Since these Services cannot be performed in-house, the City will not be able to obtain the necessary special inspections and testing services to support construction quality assurance, regulatory compliance, and public safety. In addition, not having the service for staff augmentation (should it be required) could delay project schedules, increase risks of construction deficiencies, and lead to potential costly remediation work.

Reason for Not Recommending: The City would be unable to secure special inspections and material testing services and appropriate staffing for ongoing and upcoming critical capital projects, including the Calaveras Blvd. Median Beautification, McCandless Well, McCandless Pedestrian Bridge, Metro Tango Park, MSC Bleacher Replacement Project, Sinnott Park Playground Renovation, South Milpitas Boulevard Extension, Street Resurfacing project for Dempsey Road, Great Mall Parkway and Yellowstone Ave. and Technology Drive road improvements which could negatively impact construction progress and delivery timelines.

FISCAL IMPACT:

The Services will be performed on a work order basis and funded by either individual Capital Improvement Program (CIP) projects or reimbursed by developers of private development projects. The service is budgeted for each CIP project. Approval of these Agreements does not require any additional budget appropriation and will have no effect on the General Fund.

CALIFORNIA ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY ACT (CEQA):

The project is an action taken by the City to enforce permits for use issued, adopted, or prescribed by the City or enforcement of a law, general rule, standard, or objective, administered, or adopted by the City and is exempt from CEQA pursuant to Cal. Code Regs., tit. 14, § 15321. The action has no potential for resulting in either a direct physical change in the environment, or a reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment and is not a project pursuant to Pub. Resources Code, § 21065 and Cal. Code Regs., tit. 14, § 15378. Even if a project, the action is exempt from further CEQA review pursuant to Cal. Code Regs., tit. 14, § 15061(b)(3) as it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the activity in question may have a significant effect on the environment.

Consultant's obligation to indemnify shall not be restricted to insurance proceeds, if any, received by Consultant, the City, its officials, officers, employees, agents, or volunteers.

In such event, City shall be immediately given title and possession to all original field notes, drawings and specifications, written reports and other documents produced or developed for that portion of the work completed and/or being abandoned. City shall pay Consultant the reasonable value of services rendered for any portion of the work completed prior to termination. If said termination occurs prior to completion of any task for the Project for which a payment request has not been received, the charge for services performed during such task shall be the reasonable value of such services, based on an amount mutually agreed to by City and Consultant of the portion of such task completed but not paid prior to said termination. City shall not be liable for any costs other than the charges or portions thereof which are specified herein. Consultant shall not be entitled
