4.2.1 Approach and Understanding
The list of project types/services identified within the RFP and from our research of the City’s CIP are all consistent with the successful services the HR Green team has provided for many other agencies. While the types of projects/ services are broad, we have provided an overall approach to the delivery of capital projects that is consistent with our past experiences with the City of Moreno Valley as well as other local agencies. As the City identifies which projects will be managed by HR Green, Mike Aguilar, our Project Manager, will meet with the City to clarify the scope requirements, budget and schedule. This kick-off meeting will also serve to identify any support HR Green staff that will handle non-engineering tasks to maintain an efficient process.
Our primary goal for the City is to implement a management, staffing and resource plan, assign appropriate administrative services, create best practices and a service delivery model for the City’s needs. We will align our services to your mission and expectations, and provide the best value, quality, and operational efficiency by incorporating the latest technology, paperless processes, public outreach (as necessary) and streamlined communication amongst all parties.
Although more than 50% of the CIP projects for the next two years are streets and highways, there are other categories of projects identified in the CIP that may require additional experience to manage the development of the specific project type. This is where Mike can engage HR Green resources, as needed, to ensure the proper information is incorporated into requests for proposal, bid documents, and project closeout.
The Detailed Work Plan will provide further details of how HR Green will accomplish the City of Moreno Valley’s goals in providing the project management services to deliver the assigned capital projects.
4.2.2 Strength of Work Plan
HR Green as a company, has many years of experience providing project management services for a variety of other municipalities including the Cities of Moreno Valley, Jurupa Valley, Palos Verdes Estates, Pomona, and Palm Desert. More specifically, Mike Aguilar, PE, brings over 35 years of experience working with and for government agencies to complete projects with an exemplary track record of keeping projects on budget and on schedule. Mike served as a Senior Civil Engineer/Project Manager for the City of Murrieta (4.5 years) and the County of San Diego (over 10 years).
LEADERSHIP/MANAGEMENT

2. Project Understanding Project Controls
After collaborating with the City regarding a specific
assignment/project (via task order issuance), Mike will start reviewing the readily available information, such as the project file, and request additional information from appropriate City staff to come up with a full understanding of the project phase (planning, design, or construction) and where the project stands within that phase. Mike will then create a DRAFT Work Plan (WP) for the assigned
project that will define the necessary steps and the critical path to accomplishing the assignment with key milestones that must be met to keep the project/task on schedule.
3. Project Planning, Re-sourcing, and Initiation
To perform and keep track of work assignments/projects, Mike will develop weekly project planning, monitoring,
and reporting procedures such as our Time Phased
Backlog and Three-Month Look Ahead Schedule to
make sure that each task order has adequate resources
to meet the Project Schedule. Mike will maintain decision logs for critical individual design projects that keep track of key design decisions made throughout the life of a
project. The logs contain a description of the decision, the date it was made, the key decision maker, as well as the reasoning and objective of the decision. With issues being raised and decisions being made through different types of communication, phone, email, meetings, having a single document is critical.
4. Project Design Management
Our Project Design Management phase will develop plans, specifications, and estimates (PS&E) based on project
needs and City requests. If desired, we can assist with preparing requests for professional design services,
developing RFP packages, analyzing and recommending
contract awards, and preparing staff reports for Council approval. Upon selection of a design professional, HR
Green will negotiate task orders, coordinate with utilities, review preliminary and final plans and specifications, and compile input from agencies, stakeholders and the City.
Our project manager will evaluate this information with you, identify necessary corrective actions, and ensure
the design consultant finalizes plans and specifications accordingly. Throughout, our project manager will maintain updated cost estimates to avoid funding surprises later.
Finally, we will present the final bid package for your approval before publishing the construction bid.
5. Construction Bid and Award Support
During the Bid and Award Phase of a work assignment/
project, Mike will coordinate and/or perform the following services:
▪ Pre-bidding conference, agenda, and meeting minutes
▪ Addenda (RFls and responses)
▪ Bid review, analysis, and recommendations (may
include Staff Report support)
Once the construction phase of a work assignment/
project begins, Mike will develop submittal logs and
communication sheet for distribution, continue to review and process RFI’s and RCO’s, along with monitoring of
project schedule as submitted by the contractor. He will work with inspection staff and review daily logs to verify that the project is progressing, both within budget and on schedule. Process progress payments and review and/
or recommend for approval Change Orders. He will also
communicate with supporting agencies as need be on the
progress of construction, as well as represent the City at community status meetings.
6. Construction Management and Inspection
Upon completion of the project/task Mike will appropriately categorize project records/files for both permanent and temporary archive, so that they may be available for
reference and public record requests as needed.
7. Project Close-Out
As final Deliverable, after construction is completed, Mike will provide the following:
▪ Project(s) Database
▪ Projects Cost-Loaded Schedule

SCOPE, SCHEDULE, & BUDGET MANAGEMENT
HR Green maintains a formalized and documented project
management and quality control manual adhered to by
our staff. This promotes consistency of best practices
and processes related to scope, schedule, and budget
management. Our internal processes can be modified to
coincide with specific client needs and expectations. Below are some of the best practice tools and techniques we use to complete projects within your proposed time frames.
Scope & Schedule Management
When a defined scope and budget is negotiated and prepared for a specific work order assignment, a schedule will be developed. Our staff is fluent in various scheduling tools, including Microsoft Project. Our schedules will specifically include Quality Control deliverable milestones that list the significant Quality Control activities including: task level reviews, project manager and constructability reviews,
schedule reviews, budget reviews and, most importantly, construction document reviews. We will develop, resource load, baseline, and consistently monitor project progress.
Our schedule update is essential to give the City an overview of the project status, issues, budgets and most importantly, delivery date. We will include the critical path in the project schedule. Each of these tools can produce a CPM Gantt
chart to identify items that are critical in the production of our work so that we can be proactive. We will be updating this schedule regularly and providing copies to the team at each Project Development Team (PDT) meeting. At the PDT meetings, we will review the schedule, task list, progress reports, and the recovery plans to be sure that we continue to make progress throughout the project lifecycle.
Decision Tracking/Risk Management
HR Green project managers maintain decision logs for
critical individual design projects that keep track of key design decisions made throughout the life of a project. The logs contain a description of the decision, the date it was made, the key decision maker, as well as the reasoning
and objective of the decision. With issues being raised and decisions being made through different types of
communication, phone, email, meetings, having a single
document is critical.
Budget Management
We will track the costs on each project through the use of our enterprise system, VantagePoint, that gives us web-based, real-time access to manage budgets and baselines; provide multiple forecasts for projected costs and revenue; and graphically analyze and report for accurate revenue forecasts, cost management and project success.
An in-house budget tracking spreadsheet will be updated on a weekly basis to monitor project expenditures and ensure that the required work is completed within the project budget.
For each task, we will utilize several tools to quickly monitor and control the labor and costs being applied to the project to maintain accountability among staff and team members, as well as keep the project aligned with the budget and schedule to allow us to make prompt changes in the allocation of resources or direction of effort in order to keep the project on track. The following tools and approaches will be utilized:
Advanced accounting system utilizing electronic timecards provides up-to-date job cost information daily
24/7 web access to an array of accounting reports that will track labor, expenses, subconsultants, and all job costs Monthly status reports of effort expended (including
subconsultants) will be generated showing real time costs to date
Track/monitor project costs vs. actual work completed to identify areas that may be exceeding initial project budget Make corrective actions as necessary to the project plan to compensate for areas drifting beyond budget to bring the project back on track as soon as possible.

COMMUNICATION/COORDINATION
HR Green approaches each project in the spirit and process of the client’s expectations. We have gained this experience from working with numerous clients throughout California and the U.S. (cities, counties, special districts, agencies, CALTRANS). The purpose of the Communication Process is
to:
Facilitate the project development process with the goal of reducing development time while maintaining the integrity and quality of the project;
Foster cooperation among the client, stakeholders, and regulatory agencies; and
Comply with the required regulatory needs of each project.
The goal of our Communication Process is to reduce, or
streamline, the time required to complete the overall project development process, while ensuring consideration of
impacts are evident in the design phase. Our communication effort, frequency, and consistency results in fewer surprises in the construction phase that often can negatively impact schedule and budget. Many clients have communication
expectations that HR Green dovetails into each project work plan that we undertake. In addition, HR Green often utilizes previous projects communication tactics that we have found successful that align with the goals of specific new projects.
For example, we have utilized the following communication vehicles to keep clients and stakeholders apprised of project information:
Design development team daily and weekly coordination. Regular scheduled Project Management Team (PMT)
meetings throughout the design development.
Project controls govern internal document management
that provide a registry of project activities.
Regular scheduled stakeholder public informational
meetings.
Regular scheduled design development review meetings
with clients and governing agencies.
Website, social media, and electronic communications as agreed upon.
Consistent design development status updates in between our project manager and the key client contact, or
designated client contact via telephone, e-mail, and/or in person.
Mailers, flyers, and/or other printed media as agreed upon. Other specific to client interfaces such as client
information portal exchanges if required.
From an ongoing staff management perspective we have
formalized performance reviews multiple times a year,
establish and track key performance metrics, offer a wide variety of project management and technical training
(in-house and external), as well as an open door policy for staff to approach their supervisors on any areas of concern at any time to resolve issues in a timely and
constructive manner.
We are structured to seamlessly leverage thought leaders and multi-disciplined capabilities to maximize value to our public agency clients and our projects. For example, when other municipal clients approached us about additional
needs, we incorporated additional personnel, oriented
them to their standards and expectations, and provided
the project management leadership to deliver these new
services in a timely and efficient manner (design standards updates, reviews, etc.).

4.2.5 Quality Assurance and Quality Control
HR Green understands that Quality Assurance (QA) and Quality Control (QC) relies on more than just a quality product; it relies on the processes and management that it takes to deliver that product. The benefit of this to the City of Moreno Valley is working with a consultant who has established a Quality Management Plan that is distributed company-wide, which streamlines processes and identifies roles on a project-by-project basis.
Mike Aguilar, PE will be our QA/QC Manager with the responsibility for verifying that the QC processes outlined in the Quality Management Plan are adhered to by using an ongoing QA audit process. He has over 35 years of experience utilizing this role for the Counties of San Diego and Los Angeles, overseen project controls for Caltrans projects, delivered roadway projects in Riverside County, where he resides in Murrieta.
QA/QC
Key Elements
1 2
34 5
6 Quality Assurance / Quality Control
Program Elements
1. Quality Management Plan (QMP)
A QMP will be prepared by the Project Manager and
approved by the Quality Manager for each project. It
will be reviewed and adopted by the team at the kickoff meeting. This plan will set forth the quality control and assurance procedures to be used, key staff and their roles and schedules for the various reviews to be conducted.
2. Risk Management Plan
A Risk Management meeting will be held and a Risk
Management Plan will be prepared. The purpose of this
plan is to identify and mitigate technical risks which would endanger the project schedule or budget. This meeting
is chaired by the Project Manager assisted by the QM
and includes all discipline leads. Example risks include determining acquisition needs, construction cost, and
permitting. All three of these can delay the project, but early identification and mitigation will help keep the project moving.
3. Intra-Discipline Check
Ongoing quality control checking of documents will be the responsibility of the Task Leaders in accordance with the project QMP . The Task Leader will perform the check or assign an experienced member of the designer’s discipline to complete the check. In addition, a QA review will
take place prior to contract submittals to affirm the QC procedures have been followed.
4. Inter-Discipline Reviews
These reviews focus on coordination between disciplines, interference checks and systems integration. This review would take place before each submittal and be performed by senior technical staff with experience in multiple
disciplines.
5. Constructibility / Value Engineering Review
Prior to each contractual submittal, a Constructibility/ value engineering review will take place. This review
is performed by construction staff and focuses on
construction methods and techniques to identify problems and optimize schedule and cost.
6. Peer Reviews
Prior to the conceptual design completion submittal, a
peer review will be performed by a senior engineer not
previously involved with the project. The focus of this review will include key elements as well as mitigation
issues from the Risk Management Plan.
Each team member has specific quality assurance
responsibilities; however, the primary responsibility for quality assurance rests with the Project Manager. The
project manager is responsible for client communications, acts as the liaison among the project team members, and is responsible for meeting the project schedule.

CHALLENGE: Upon Jurupa Valley incorporation, City operations needed to hit the ground running and provide for a seamless transition from County-provided services to City-responsible services. Given our established working relationships with County/ regional stakeholders and depth of locally-accessible, available staff, HR Green has been able to handle all City Administration, Engineering, Public Works, Building & Safety, and Development needs. Over the past 10 years we have helped the City Manager and City Council identify, prioritize, and address goals/challenges, and also develop a roadmap for continuing and sustained success.
SOLUTION: Our proven approach has allowed us to leverage multi-faceted staff in different roles to do more with limited staff compared to other similar sized municipalities (cross-trained staff who can seamlessly handle multiple duties and address changing needs). We have embedded 40+ staff conceptualizing, implementing, and managing programs and projects for the public works, engineering, and building departments. Our engineers have provided overall planning, coordination and control of CIP projects ($9+M annual CIP) from inception to completion in order to produce functionally and financially viable projects completed on time within authorized costs and to the required quality standards. Our staff members have overseen CIP projects that have been planned and designed by both HR Green personnel as well as other consultants.
BENEFIT: Due to the poor condition of City roadways upon City incorporation, estimated to cost up to $128M to repair, HR Green aggressively pursued funding opportunities. The City has maximized the use of Measure A, Gas Tax, SB1, ATP , CalRecycle, TUMF, DIF, COP bond funds, CFDs, SB-821, HBRR, STIP , HSIP , CDBG, and developer monies to fund high-priority infrastructure needs to advance critical projects. Our staff has prepared applications and obtained $5+M in new funding through Caltrans, the Riverside County Transportation Commission, CDBG, HSIP , CalRecycle, and other grant programs to support Safe Routes to School and Active Transportation Program (ATP) projects, beverage container recycling, and “green,” cost-effective pavement rehabilitation methods. For “The City of Jurupa Valley continues
to be very pleased with the services
that we are receiving from HR
Green. HR Green provides highly
competent and experienced staff at
reasonable hourly rates. In an active
and fast-growing city like Jurupa
Valley, being able to supplement our
internal team with well-managed
contract staff makes us all the more
effective in serving our residents
and the development community. ”

CWE has extensive experience working with Southern California municipalities to secure over $109 million in grant money for environmental improvement projects. We assisted the City of San Fernando with $10 million in grant funding assistance for the Regional Park Infiltration Project. Furthermore, our engineers suggested the City include street reconstruction as part of this stormwater project’s multiple benefits to enable the City to pay for street improvements with a stormwater grant. Other relevant project experience includes El Monte On-Call General Professional Services, City of Torrance Green Streets, Laurel Canyon Boulevard Green Street, and City of Los Angeles TOS 14 LA River.

2. Technical Proposal
2.1 Understanding, Approach, and Work Pan
This section describes our understanding, approach and work plan to delivering services for the complex Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) projects that will be included under this contract. Our understanding and approach differentiate us from other respondents due to our unparalleled expertise and experienc e in On- Call/As-Needed contracts and program management. CWE is no stranger to On-Call/As-Needed contracts and has been successfully providing professional services to multiple concurrent clients on a task order basis. Our project professionals are accustomed to responding on short notice and providing highly specialized services. Our depth of resources facilitates our availability for this type of contract vehicle with the City of Moreno Valley.
CWE proposes to meet the objectives of services needed, including in-house city projects, capital improvement projects assigned to consultants, oversight of design from consultants, and grant acquisitions. Workplans will be implemented at the onset of these services as they are assigned. Each workplan will include the tasks necessary for each milestone deliverable and the hours of effort needed to accomplish each task on a weekly basis. The workplan will not be limited to CWE’s involvement in the project but will include the city forces and other consultants/subconsultants that are part of the project.
These workplans will be in-line with CWE’s project management approach that implements project management through a combination of administrative steps and procedures to assure that project scope and objectives are met, on-time and within budget. Project management elements are characterized by frequent client communication, project team coordination, decision documentation, and multi -step quality control. CWE will work with the project team to determine the best approaches to communication, working through concerns, and providing timely responses. CWE has used this management program with great success on many project types and sizes. CWE has received numerous letters of commendation from satisfied clients attesting to the success of our project management program.
CWE has reviewed the City’s CIP and observed the following categorical breakdown of projects on recently completed projects, current projects, and future projects:
The trend of project types suggest most CIP projects are either drainage or street projects with a small percentage of projects being traffic, pedestrian and bike lanes, and utility like the MVU Integrated Resource Plan currently being advertised. CWE understands that we will be providing an on-site Senior Engineer to support the CIP and other initiatives of the City. The role may be 20-40 hours per week or on an as-needed basis. This role will manage, oversee, evaluate, monitor and participate in the planning, design, construction, and management of projects for the City over the next three (3) years. Our preference would be to have personnel positioned on-site for the performance of all services, but we are open to a hybrid work model if that is what the City prefers. CWE will provide mobile phone connectivity, email access, as well as a laptop computer to our assigned staff. If the City has a dedicated workstation and workspace available, and would like to assign a City email address to our staff, that would be beneficial.
Alex Torres, PE, QSD/P, the designated On-Site Senior Engineer on this proposal, contributed to the completed SR-60/World Logistics Center (WLC) Interchange project, and the ongoing Sunnymead and Moreno MDP projects, in he which a key participant in advancing the design and ensuring it met all A.14.c

City guidelines and requirements. In the SR-60/WLC project, which is a reconfiguration of the interchange to increase traffic capacity for travel to the WLC, which is a proposed corporate campus of 29 warehouse sites acting as a central hub for 40% of the nation’s imports coming from the ports of Los Angels and Long Beach, while also being an environmentally sustainable Net Zero GHG project, the largest of its kind in the nation. On this project, Alex provided the stormwater treatment within Caltrans and Mo reno Valley MS4’s and managed the traffic study during the planning (PA/ED) phases. Alex’s contributions on the Sunnymead and Moreno MDP projects consisted of leading the technical analysis and design of storm drain improvements to alleviate flooding within those Riverside County Flood Control master planned watersheds. These project experiences have provided close collaboration with City officials that have enriched CWE’s understanding of City requirements and guidelines and are also in parallel with the majority of CIP projects, which are street and drainage projects. While not with the City, CWE also has worked extensively with other agencies providing design services for traffic, utility, and pedestrian and bike lanes, like the current LA River Bike Lanes Project with the City of Cudahy.
CWE has the proven ability to lead and produce deliverables for all of these project types, while also assisting the City with oversight of other CIP projects contracted to consultants and assisting with all other tasks and duties under this contract. For each task assigned, CWE will deploy the following task order process:
CWE will apply this task management approach to
the pertinent phase the project at hand is in.
Whether it’s being involved during the planning,
design, and construction phases or just one or two
of the phases, CWE will ensure the project is
delivered per schedule and budget requirements.
Our goals and deliverables are focused
around: Communication, Schedule and Cost
Control, Robust PS&Es, and Funding Sources
(Grants). The CWE lead will coordinate team
activities and keep the City informed of important
progress and transmittals. We have found that a
critical key to successful project completion is
maintaining communication with the client to
discuss progress, identify problems, assign
priorities, coordinate the implementation of
solutions, and accept feedback. Coordination,
coupled with progress meetings, avoids delays and
ensures that projects are completed on schedule
and within budget. We will communicate with the
project team as frequently as necessary to ensure
that the efforts for the project are coordinated and
moving forward on schedule. Resolution of
concerns and questions as quickly as possible will
keep the project on schedule. Of course, CWE will
keep a log of all correspondences including emails and prepare meeting agendas and meeting minutes for all meetings. If the project is in the construction stage, CWE will ensure that contractor submittals are consistent with project plans and specifications while promptly providing RFI requests and dynamic solutions on the field.
This successful work plan management process would not be possible without CWE’s vast experience in CIP projects. Whether it’s a complete streets project, a water or sewer improvement, or a storm drain plan, CWE has implemented workplans that successfully deliver these projects adhering to city of M oreno Valley and other local stakeholders criteria like Riverside County Flood Control and Water Conservation A.14.c

District (RCFC&WCD), Riverside County Transportation Department (RCTD) and California Department of Transportation (Caltrans). CWE will ensure the designs have been validated by proper hydrology and hydraulic analysis and that any required Low-Impact Development (LID) Best Management Practices (BMPs) and other treatment BMPs are implemented in accordance with the Water Quality Management Plan (WQMP) for the Santa Ana River Watershed of Riverside County. CWE is aware of the new 2022 Construction General Permit (CGP) by the California State Water Resources Control Board (WRCB) effective on September 1st, 2023, and specifically how the threshold of redevelopment projects requiring treatment was reduced from 10,000 SF to 5,000 SF of new impervious surface. Lastly, CWE will ensure all bid items are covered in the cost estimate using real-time unit prices and are correctly represented in the Greenbook specifications.
Goal: Coordination/Communication
The CWE lead will coordinate team activities and keep the City informed of important progress and transmittals. We have found that a critical key to successful project completion is maintaining communication with the client to discuss progress, identify problems, assign priorities, implement solutions, and accept feedback. Coordination both internally and with other stakeholders and agencies, coupled with progress meetings, avoids delays and ensures that projects are completed on schedule and within budget. We will communicate with the City as frequently as necessary to ensure that efforts for the project are coordinated and moving forward on schedule. Resolving concerns and questions as quickly as possible will keep the project on schedule.
Goal: Project Scheduling
The CWE lead will develop and use comprehensive project schedules to regularly monitor progress and upcoming work items. This has proven successful in keeping track of forthcoming critical issues and decisions. The CWE lead will keep the City apprised of planned work, project progress, and deliverables.
The CWE lead will notify the City of any critical issues and changes in the anticipated project progress and delivery of key tasks.
Goal: Budget Control
Two methods for maintaining budgetary control are frequent project accomplishment evaluations and periodic project expenditure monitoring. The CWE lead will regularly evaluate the project scope of work and the City’s objectives to monitor and identify changes that may affect project costs. This approach has proven successful in reducing client costs and developing a clear time schedule for project delivery. CWE recognizes the need for project budget and progress tracking in order to minimize the risk of cos t overruns or project deficiencies. Each week, our lead reviews the task charges to ensure accuracy. Each month, our lead receives project summary reports detailing hours charged and costs for that particular period and for the project to date. Our monthly invoices include hours and costs charged to the job for that month, and a summary that shows the amount spent to date and the budget remaining. They are accompanied by a project status report that shows tasks worked on for the month, their percent complete, and critical items for the tasks that remain to be resolved. Regular communication with City staff is always a high priority for the CWE lead to ensure surprises do not occur on the project.
Goal: Constructible, Maintainable PS&Es
At CWE, we pride ourselves on developing solid PS&Es that are sensible and constructible. Our team members have extensive experience in the construction management of civil engineering projects, which gives them a foundation of sound, realistic engineering principles and the know-how to understand what project elements will work best in any given site and design. This experience matters: CWE -designed projects have an average rate of just 4% change orders during construction, compared to the industry average of 10%. Our expertise has saved our clients hundreds of thousands of dollars in change orders.
CWE takes O&M costs into consideration at every stage of the project, from conceptualization through final design. Our O&M expertise stems from our staff’s experience at Los Angeles County DPW (LACDPW) and other Southern California Agencies, and ensures projects are maintainable after construction. The A.14.c

➢ Quality Assurance consists of the written procedures that drive quality. Specific procedures start with a joint City and CWE project kick-off meeting to verify that everyone understands the intent, objectives, tasks, budgets, schedules, milestones, and deliverables; the kick-off meeting also identifies responsible individuals for implementing work tasks. The QA procedures also require a standardized checking process, including technical reviews. ➢ Quality Control is the system for verifying that the quality assurance procedures are actually being implemented. Quality control activities are the actual checking and validation of the work product at every stage of its development. These critical activities include internal quality control reviews by senior experts; they also include a rigorous cross-checking process for making sure that comments, revisions or corrections to any deliverable are correctly completed. This same checking process will also be used to document actions taken for comments made by County reviewers.
Our QA/QC procedures will be based on CWE's QMP and the City’s standards and preferences. To maintain consistency, CWE team members will be required to comply with the QMP requirements in addition to their own established procedures. The written QMP will be project-specific and meet both City and CWE quality standards and procedures. CWE will incorporate the City’s QA/QC procedures into the QMP including the development of QA/QC checklists, discipline and interdisciplinary checks, and calculation checks. Incorporating County procedures into CWE's quality procedures results in a high-quality project that the City Project Manager can easily review for compliance. Based on the QMP, the QA/QC design reviews will include, at a minimum, the following:
➢ Pre-Design Review
➢ Design Reviews
➢ Value Engineering
➢ Construction Reviews
➢ O&M Reviews
➢ Utility Coordination
➢ Ready to Advertise Checklist
The QMP will establish the necessary processes to accomplish the following:
Bill Young, PE will be assigned as the QA/QC Manager for this contract. He will be responsible for performing quality control checks and managing the independent peer review process of completed deliverables. With over 40 years of public agency engineering experience, he has the background and expertise to make sure submittals are accurate, complete, and in compliance with the required standards.

City of Los Angeles Laurel Canyon Boulevard Green Street Design-Build This project received awards from the American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) Los Angeles Section, ASCE
Metropolitan Los Angeles Branch (MLAB), and California
Stormwater Quality Association (CASQA). CWE designed
and performed construction management for roadway
widening; curb, gutter, and sidewalk improvements; and
over 2,100 square feet of bioretention systems and 13
fifty-foot-deep drywells along 1,000 linear feet of Laurel Canyon Boulevard for LA Sanitation – City of Los Angeles and the Los Angeles Conservation Corps. The project
provided increased groundwater recharge, reduced
flooding impacts, enhanced water quality, protected compatible beneficial uses, and improved the neighborhood quality of life. To accomplish this, CWE implemented CU-Structural Soil™ (CU Soil), which accommodates increased water storage in the bioswales, and therefore increases infiltration. This project will collect approximately 13 million gallons of stormwater runoff from a 125-acre drainage area and recharge the San Fernando Groundwater Basin. An additional 20 feet was added to the width of the street to accommodate Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA)-compliant curb ramps and sidewalks on the eastern side of Laurel Canyon Boulevard, which not only benefitted traffic flow and improved congestion during school hours and rush-hour traffic, but also reduced flooding on the streets and mitigated ponding A.14.c

3.1 Meet Your Senior Engineer
Alex Torres, PE, QSD/P, is CWE’s designated Senior Engineer. He is committed to dedicate 20 to 40 hours a week, or as much effort as the City requires, as part of this Staff Augmentation request for Senior Engineer services. Over the last 11 years, Alex has been managing civil engineering projects for government agencies and municipalities in Southern California, in addition to 21 years
of technical experience in a broad range of
civil engineering projects and services that
heavily involved infrastructure,
transportation, water resources,
stormwater quality, traffic design, site
grading, sewer and water design, dry utility coordination, project management, construction support, and strategic communications. He has extensive experience coordinating large project teams to deliver over $1 billion worth of comprehensive civil engineering and water-related projects to various public agency clients throughout Southern California, most of which includes city, county, state (Caltrans and DWR), special districts (WMWD, EMWD, EVMWD), and the City of Moreno Valley.
In recent times, Alex worked on the recently completed SR-60/World Logistics Center (WLC) Interchange, the ongoing Sunnymead Master Drainage Plan (Lines F and F-7) and the Moreno Master Drainage Plan Line F-18 and F-19. On the SR-60/WLC project, Alex successfully managed the traffic study and was the project engineer signing the Project Approval/Environmental Document (PA/ED) Stormwater Data Report (SWDR) which documented 116.4 acres of disturbed soil area (DSA) and 10.1 acres of new impervious area (NNI). 100% of the NNI is treated by infiltration basins and biofiltration swales totaling $4M in constructions. The Report included cost estimates for Design Pollution Prevention BMPs ($500,000) and Temporary Construction BMPs ($625,000). On the Sunnymead and Moreno Master Drainage Plans, Alex was the lead drainage engineer for developing workplans and workflows for the analysis and design of the drainage facilities which included inlets/catch basins, storm drains, surface channels, and detention basins. He led and mentored three junior level engineers to assist with analysis, plan, production, and cost estimates.
Prior to these projects with the City, Alex worked as Senior Project Engineer for a Staff Augmentation Project with Caltrans District 8 from 2015 to 2017. His role was a Senior Project Engineer responsible for working on projects in the PA/ED and PS&E phases. He was Engineer of Record on the drainage plans, stormwater data report (SWDR) and drainage report for Cedar/I-10 Interchange in Bloomington, SR-395 in Adelanto from SR-18 to Kern County line, I-40 Culvert Extensions, Mt Vernon/I-215 Interchange in Colton, SR-74 Median in Hemet, and a storm drain relocation project on HWY 330 near Big Bear. Aside from drainage projects, Alex was tasked to author the Project Report for the SR-62 Median project in the Morongo Valley. The project report is required during the PA/ED phase of any Caltrans project to document the purpose and need of the project and to show approval from the Caltrans Functional Units that the project has met requirements to move to the PS&E Phase.

City of Moreno Valley, Sunnymead Storm Drain Project
Lead Engineer authoring the drainage report that demonstrates proposed drainage facilities downstream of Sunnymead Boulevard safely convey the 100-year storm onto a Riverside County Flood Control and Water Conservation District (RCFC&WCD) concrete- lined trapezoidal channel, identified as Line “F” in the Sunnymead Master Drainage Plan (MDP). These improvements alleviate flooding from Hemlock Boulevard/Graham Street intersection and the Towngate Apartments north of SR-60. A series of drainage improvements were designed upstream of the proposed SMART basin South of Sunnymead Boulevard. This basin reduces the peak flow from 611 cubic feet per second (cfs) to 415 cfs while allowing a low-flow of 110 cfs to bypass the basin through natural swale down to a confluence from the outflow of the proposed Sunny Meadows Drive Basin. This flow then enters Line “F” and contains an additional foot of freeboard.

City of Los Angeles Laurel Canyon Boulevard Green
Street Project Manager for the design of bioswales with drywells along 1,000 linear feet of Laurel Canyon Boulevard for LA Sanitation – City of Los Angeles and the Los Angeles Conservation Corps. The project provided increased groundwater recharge, reduced flooding impacts, protected compatible beneficial uses, and improved the neighborhood quality of life. This was accomplished by the design of a series of infiltration swales and drywells along Laurel Canyon Boulevard between Kagel Canyon Street and Terra Bella Street with curb, gutter, and sidewalk improvements. The project collected stormwater runoff from an approximately 125-acre drainage area. Duties included developing civil design, landscaping, and traffic control plans, construction inspection and management, and conducting dry- and wet- weather monitoring. This project received awards from the ASCE Los Angeles Section, ASCE Metropolitan Los Angeles Branch, and CASQA.
City of Hermosa Beach Water Quality Monitoring During
the Repair of the Hermosa Beach Pier Principal-in-Charge for professional water quality monitoring services in conjunction with the City of Hermosa Beach for the Hermosa Beach Pier Repair Project. The project involved the repair of six spalled concrete piles, replacement of a 32-foot by 5-foot section of pier deck, and other minor bracket and conduit repairs. While the deck work was over beach sand with little risk of marine contamination, most of the damaged piles sections were over or, in one case, in the ocean. Since there was a potential risk of marine contamination during construction, especially during repair of the piles, water quality monitoring to document pre-, during-, and post-project conditions was performed. Tasks included drafting and submitting a water quality monitoring plan, implementing the approved monitoring plan, and preparing monthly and final monitoring reports.
