Including construction and operations staff in the design process early on allows for an in-depth understanding of the intended final product and gives an opportunity to give feedback on design decisions that will affect their ability to efficiently build and run the facility. During each submittal phase, the construction and operations team leaders will review plans, provide comments, and participate in workshops with the Design Team and City reviewers.
EQUIPMENT SELECTIONWe understand equipment selection as critical to system performance, capital and operational costs, and detailed installation requirements. As such, we review approved vendors, request equipment quotes, and evaluate options based on specifications and costs. Based on this evaluation, we request quotes for site-specific equipment to ensure operational requirements and treatment objectives are met. The operations team provides input throughout this entire process to ensure end-user (operator) concerns are taken into consideration. Final equipment decisions are made based on: »Water quality »Operability »Budget considerations
CONSTRUCTION ADMINISTRATION,
OVERSIGHT, & ENGINEERING Our Design Team maintains an engaged role in construction administration following design finalization by actively providing technical support to the construction team and ensuring the facility follows design intent, contract requirements, and performance objectives.
Working collaboratively with field personnel, our engineering key personnel will review shop drawings, equipment submittals, respond to requests for information (RFIs), evaluate and document design clarifications, perform site visits to observe construction progress and verify compliance with design documents, and participate in coordination meetings to quickly resolve and minimize field issues and schedule impacts.
Engineers also support factory and site acceptance testing, commissioning, and startup activities by confirming installed systems operate as intended, incorporating approved field modifications into record documents, and assisting with final inspections and project closeout. This integrated approach to construction administration facilitates timely decision-making, reduces rework, and helps deliver a high-quality, reliable treatment facility.
MATERIALS TESTINGIndependent labs and specialty inspection firms will be selected for sampling, testing, and inspection of soils, concrete, rebar, welding, and other construction materials. This approach has been successfully implemented on all PERC led collaborative DB projects with PACE as Engineer of Record. Design Manager Kevin Tirado, PE will tailor the Design-Build Quality Management Plan to the Project, establishing quality processes for both design and construction. As the Project progresses, PERC Water will supplement the plan with a Construction Quality Inspection and Testing Plan and Materials Control Schedule, with all quality documentation managed in Procore.
OPERATIONS & MAINTENANCE
OPTIMIZATION/TRAININGPERC Water leverages our extensive experience designing, building, operating, and maintaining similar AWPFs to provide comprehensive operational training to the City on facility procedures and equipment to guarantee long-term performance, reliability, and ease of operation. As discussed, experienced operations personnel participate in ECO Design Reviews, equipment selection, constructability and maintainability assessments, and startup planning to identify opportunities to improve operability, reduce lifecycle costs, and simplify maintenance. This same staff develops comprehensive operations and maintenance documentation, standard operating procedures, preventive maintenance programs, and hands-on training tailored to City staff. Equipment commissioning, functional testing, and operator training are coordinated to progressively train and transfer knowledge and validate system performance, ensuring a seamless transition from construction to full operational readiness.
INFORMATION FLOW, DOCUMENT
MANAGEMENT, & RECORDS CONTROLPERC Water will be responsible for communication management, including maintaining the quality and continuity of the project’s communication flow through Procore. Project design communication will flow through PERC Water, which maintains a direct line of communication with the City to ensure controlled project messaging. Additionally, we will coordinate all communications and the transfer and submittal of project information to the City, regulatory agencies, and the public (where authorized by the City). During the design, PACE is responsible for the preparation of all plans, specifications, reports, calculations, permit support, and compliance with federal, state, and local jurisdictional requirements.
PROPOSAL FOR DESIGN-BUILD SERVICES CENTRAL COAST BLUE ADVANCED WATER PURIFICATION FACILITY 7 DESIGN BUILD OPER AT E| |
PERMITTING ENGAGEMENT/MANAGEMENT
PERC Water is responsible for obtaining project permits and environmental approvals under DB Team responsibility as outlined in Exhibit E of the Draft Design Build Agreement. Additionally, our Project Team will provide timely and accurate support to the City in obtaining all other applicable permits and approvals under ‘Owner’ responsibility. To mitigate any potential risks or delays, it is imperative agency and inter-agency coordination, in cooperation with the City, be initiated directly following notice to proceed (NTP). This adheres to our strict, proactive permit management approach that integrates regulatory coordination, design development, construction planning, and agency communication.
We recognize the CCB Project will interface with a range of local, county, state, and federal entities depending on final site and design configuration, including building and planning departments, County environmental health authorities, regional water quality regulators, coastal and resource agencies, and well construction permitting authorities. Our approach focuses on initiating agency coordination upon NTP, strategically sequencing construction around permit approvals, and leveraging existing regulator relationships to maintain open, effective communication throughout the Project.
This approach focuses on initiating agency coordination early in design, strategically coordinating construction sequencing around permit approvals, and leveraging existing relationships with regulators and agencies to maintain open lines of communication. An overview of this approach and anticipated schedule for obtaining Permit Compliance and Governmental Approvals is included on the following page.
IDENTIFY We plan our design and construction sequencing so sections with more permitting constraints are expedited through the design process to allow ample time for permit submission and Agency review.
ENGAGE
Early coordination leads to Agency partners who are more willing and better able to assist, find solutions, and trust the Project team. It also helps Agencies become invested in project success and leads to efficiencies in design by catching triggers early, instead of retracing steps and duplicating efforts later.
DEVELOP & SUPPORT
Effective communication and engagement with permitting Agencies is key to achieving regulatory compliance, permitting reliability, and permit approval. We aim to keep the Team focused on permit approval by completing pre-application meetings where possible, submitting accurate and complete permit applications, and developing mitigation plans for implementation.
COMPLY Permit requirements are considered and integrated into our work plans for the Construction Phase. During construction, we monitor and mitigate in support of the permitting and environmental compliance requirements, providing training when necessary.
STAKEHOLDER ENGAGEMENT/MANAGEMENTThe PERC Team will support the City’s public outreach efforts by developing communication materials and assisting with public meetings, signage, flyers, websites, and announcements to keep stakeholders informed throughout design and construction.
BUDGET MANAGEMENTOver the past six months, our Team has creatively developed a high value, low-cost solution to meeting the Project objectives and requirements. Several of these ideas and concepts have been presented to the City at Confidential Meetings and are detailed herein. We’re committed to delivering a Project meeting all stakeholders goals at the lowest cost possible, a commitment our Team has successfully delivered on similar complex advanced purification projects.
Our team has spent the last three decades developing and refining a template for estimating and managing collaborative delivery projects budgets such as Central Coast Blue. We will leverage this template along with our project accounting software for uniform budget tracking methods of past estimates and comparing labor and material codes at the time of bid to actual costs incurred in the past. We will also reference past projects of similar size, scope, and complexity to better understand costs associated with the scope of work an anticipate incorporating subcontractors and suppliers, including manufacturers, specialty trades, and electrical subcontractors, early in the design process for accurate pricing on scopes of work. Some of the project funding will require outreach to disadvantaged business enterprises and have initiated good faith and outreach efforts into our subcontracting process.

INTEGRATION BETWEEN PROJECT PHASESTo avoid compartmentalization between design and construction, and training and support PERC integrates our DB Management team, as outlined in our proposal, throughout the Project. Design, construction, commissioning, and operations leaders collaborate to incorporate constructability, operability, maintainability, and technical requirements early, while maintaining Design Team members support field execution to ensure seamless transition through startup and long-term facility operation ENGINEERING RECOMMENDATION PRECEDENCETo avoid contractor or equipment supplier interests overriding engineering-based decisions, our project approach fosters close collaborative relationship among engineering, construction, procurement, and equipment suppliers. This integrations allows us to maximize constructability, innovation, and project value while ensuring that engineering judgment always governs technical decisions. All contractor and supplier recommendations are evaluated through objective engineering criteria, including process performance, hydraulic analyses, regulatory requirements, equipment testing, reliability, operations and maintenance, lifecycle cost, and risk assessments, to confirm they support the facility’s long-term performance and compliance. When commercial, procurement, or schedule considerations conflict with technical requirements, engineering recommendations take precedence to protect public health, regulatory compliance, safety, operability, and asset reliability.
5. ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENTPERC Water has included Rincon Consultants, Inc. on our Project Team to oversee compliance with environmental constraints and mitigation measure requirements. Rincon’s seven-year involvement in the project’s California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) compliance processes offers a high degree of familiarity with the origin, intent, and current applicability of the environmental mitigation framework. Rincon’s Project continuity also allows the design-build team to interpret the environmental mitigation requirements efficiently, avoid duplicative or unnecessary scope, and carry forward the environmental commitments. We will use a comprehensive Environmental Compliance Checklist as the framework for assigning, tracking, and documenting environmental compliance responsibilities throughout design, construction, and start-up.
LABOR MANAGEMENTAs a Licensed CA Class A General Engineering Contractor (#932074), PERC Water self-performs the most complex and critical aspects of startup, commissioning, and operational integration. Where practical, PERC utilizes qualified local craft labor and subcontractors, keeping project dollars within the community while maintaining direct control of safety, quality, coordination, and schedule. Because PERC self performs key scopes of work, we’re able to identify and resolve construction and commissioning issues early, reducing handoff risk and ensuring the CCB Project is delivered safely, on schedule, and ready to perform.
SCHEDULE MANAGEMENT
PERC Water will develop and maintain the overall project schedule while PACE provides design schedule updates for incorporation. During design, the Engineer of Record (Andy Komor, PE) and the Design Manager (Kevin Tirado, PE) will develop intermediate milestones in order to ensure reviews can be completed more frequently for intermediate work products. This allows design management to communicate potential and actual delays and/or schedule conflicts early, so adjustments can be made to mitigate overall project delays whenever possible. Design progress follows the design deliverables outlined in the RFP, with certain scopes of work taken as individual design packages to facilitate early procurement.
CONSISTENCY & CONTINUITY OF LEADERSHIPTo avoid duplication and discontinuity in leadership between Project phases, PERC maintains a single, integrated leadership team throughout design, procurement, construction, commissioning, startup, and training to ensure continuity, accountability, and consistent execution of project objectives. Key personnel remain engaged across all phases, preserving project knowledge, streamlining decisions, and eliminating unnecessary rework.
We also establish clear responsibilities, define deliverables, and quality control processes for each project phase to ensure accountability and prevent overlap of responsibilities. Formal phase-gate reviews, with defined entry and exit criteria, verifies design reviews, procurement activities, construction completion, testing prerequisites, and training objectives have been successfully completed before work advances. This approach maintains integrity of each project phase while ensuring seamless coordination, efficient transitions, and consistent leadership from design through final acceptance.

The DBQMP, found in Appendix A, also provides a formal process for identifying, documenting, escalating, and resolving nonconforming work and corrective actions, while applying quality audits, performance metrics, and lessons learned to prevent recurring issues. The Risk Management Plan, included as Appendix B, summarizes our process to identify, analyze, respond to, monitor, control, document and resolve risks throughout the project as well as the tools used, such as the Risk Register and CORE Compliance Platform.
Team Partnership Environment
SCHEDULE DURING DESIGN DEVELOPMENTThe design development schedule, shown in Figure 3, is structured to efficiently and effectively address design intent, accuracy/ quality of design, and risk management at each major project interval. This process is a multi-step process that engages engineers and Design Team members at all levels to address key technical details and accuracy verifications.
Additionally, staff engineers not directly involved in the Project will serve as key reviewers to provide alternative perspectives on the design approach and work product. Each submittal is first submitted to PERC Water’s Design Manager, Kevin Tirado, PE for final review before being forwarded to the City. Following receipt of comments by the City and PERC Water, PACE will incorporate responses/ revisions for the next submittal phase.
CITY INVOLVEMENT During design and construction phases, PERC Water will provide the City with regular opportunities to verify the Project is progressing in accordance with its performance, quality, budget, and schedule objectives. Formal design review workshops are conducted at key milestones (30%, 60%, 90%, and 100% Design), supported by interdisciplinary coordination meetings, progress meetings, technical workshops, and value engineering ECO Review sessions.
Rincon’s role focuses on leading the environmental compliance tasks that require specialized environmental expertise, regulatory familiarity, and continuity with the project’s environmental record. These tasks include confirming the applicability of CEQA and NEPA mitigation requirements to the current project concept, completing acoustical analyses, delivering worker environmental awareness trainings, conducting pre-construction biological surveys, providing archaeological and Native American monitoring during initial ground disturbance, and implementing appropriate procedures if unanticipated archaeological or paleontological resources are encountered.
PERC Water will implement environmental mitigation measures through project design, construction methods, equipment selection, hazardous materials management, traffic control, and start-up activities, assigning responsibility to the team members. Throughout design, construction, and commissioning, Rincon will coordinate implementation, and maintain an Environmental Compliance Checklist to provide the City with a complete record demonstrating compliance with all applicable mitigation measures.
Startup, Testing, & Support
PERC Water’s Design-Build Team brings a disciplined, integrated approach to start-up, testing, commissioning, and plant acceptance derived from nearly three decades of successful water treatment facility commissioning, including the commissioning, startup, and testing of five advanced purification facilities in the state of California. Our approach to startup, acceptance testing, and support of the Facility is detailed in Part IV of this Proposal.
6. DB QUALITY MANAGEMENT PLANPERC Water is committed to delivering the highest quality design, construction, and operations services available, a commitment that begins with our Quality Management System (QMS) that is ISO 9001:2015 certified (#1120690).
Our Design-Build Quality Management Plan (DBQMP), inclusive of Key Elements as outlined in Section 4.3.6 of the RFP, outlines a proactive, project-wide approach to ensuring quality from design through to construction, commissioning, training and final turnover.

Project Team members and the City, providing a forum in which all parties can collaborate and provide feedback to each other. At the start of the project, communication protocols and meeting and reporting frequencies will be established, focused on communication processes, policies, procedures, and define roles and responsibilities, establishing accountability.
PROJECT MANAGER ROLEAs DB Project Manager, Joe Winkler provides continuous leadership through the entire Project and has the authority, responsibility, and resources to make timely decisions to protect project objectives related to safety, quality, schedule, cost, regulatory compliance, and operational readiness. Joe serves as the designated point of contact and go-between for the City and the Project Team and will lead a structured decision-making process for critical project issues. When decisions require technical input, Joe will engages appropriate engineering discipline leads, construction managers, equipment suppliers, or City representatives to ensure decisions are supported by sound analysis and documented justification.
Review packages will be distributed in advance through Procore to allow the City sufficient time to evaluate and comment on design deliverables, with all comments tracked, formally addressed, and documented to ensure input is incorporated. During construction, progress meetings, site walks, inspections, submittal and RFI reviews, and schedule updates will provide continuous visibility into project execution and confirm alignment with the approved design and quality requirements. During commissioning and startup, the City representative participating in key equipment demonstrations, functional and acceptance testing, performance validation, and O&M documentation.
COMMUNICATION
The flow of information between the Project Team and the City will remain transparent and accessible to all parties throughout the Project. Upon award, a communication meeting schedule and deliverables will be formalized and a resulting formal partnering framework with the City will be instituted. These formal partnering workshops during design and construction phases will serves as the groundwork for a solid partnering relationship between Figure 3 • Design Development & Finalization Sequence

PROPOSAL FOR DESIGN-BUILD SERVICES CENTRAL COAST BLUE ADVANCED WATER PURIFICATION FACILITY 13 DESIGN BUILD OPER AT E| |
1.1 PROJECT OVERVIEW & DESIGN BASIS
The Phase 1 CCB AWPF is designed to reliably produce 500 acre-feet per year (0.50–0.55 MGD) of purified water at 90 percent plant availability, while preserving a clear, low-disruption path to the City’s Phase 2 objective of 750 AFY, and ultimate build-out beyond 1.0 MGD within the proposed building footprint (or 2.0 MGD or greater through a future mirrored expansion). The treatment train consists of equalization, ultrafiltration (UF), one reverse osmosis (RO) train, chlorine-based UV advanced oxidation (UV-AOP), chlorine disinfection, post-treatment stabilization, purified water storage, and on-site injection.
The AWPF is designed to the California SWRCB Division of Drinking Water (DDW) Title 22 requirements for potable reuse groundwater augmentation, achieving the required 12-log virus, 10-log Cryptosporidium, and 10-log Giardia reduction across the treatment barriers, as summarized below.
Our Technical Approach for the CCB AWPF is organized to allow the City to evaluate our compliance with the Design Criteria Report (DCR) and Design Build Contract, and to highlight the innovative solutions our design provides beyond the DCR’s minimum requirements. This approach follows a “DCR-plus” philosophy which closely follows the DCR’s detailed unit process instructions and minimum conditions for quality of materials, while creating additional value that results in the most reliable, easiest to operate, and most expandable IPR facility achievable for the City.
1.2 TREATMENT TRAIN DESCRIPTION
INFLUENT DIVERSION & EQUALIZATIONSecondary effluent is conveyed from the Pismo Beach Outfall (PBO) to a new 200,000-gallon glass-coated, bolted-steel equalization (EQ) tank, which decouples the 0.30–1.10 MGD variability of the upstream WWTP from the stable flow required by the downstream membrane systems. In place of the DCR’s two small-bore pilot-line hydraulic valves (subject to clogging from residual solids), PERC Water’s design uses two automated, hardwired, battery-backed 18″ plug valves, one normally-closed on the existing outfall route and one normally-open to the EQ tank, backed by an 18″ hydraulic pressure relief valve.
This eliminates the pumping and small-bore clogging risk inherent to the DCR concept while providing an intentional gravity overflow that keeps the equalization (EQ) tank at a low hydraulic retention time, flushes the return line of RO brine mineral scaling, and requires no pumps for normal operation.

TREATMENT PROCESSPlease refer to project renderings Exhibit C669_V8 and Exhibit C669_V12 in Appendix C for a visual of the site’s physical arrangement and the treatment process’s physical arrangement.
ULTRAFILTRATION (UF)Secondary effluent from EQ passes through two expandable UF treatment skids (0.38 MGD each, 0.76 MGD total) — roughly 0.1 MGD above the DCR’s 0.66 MGD minimum feed flow requirement, providing operating margin to reduce RO recovery if needed to meet nitrate goals. UF removes suspended solids, reduces turbidity, and provides a physical pathogen barrier ahead of RO.

reduction requirement. Because RO permeate conductivity is very low, the primary process flow signal driving hypochlorite dosing is calculated from RO feed/concentrate flows (with permeate flow for verification), a more dependable pacing basis than direct low-conductivity flow measurement.
CHLORINE DISINFECTION &
POST-TREATMENT STABILIZATIONUV-AOP effluent flows to two 8,600-gallon, NSF-61 listed, pre-baffled fiberglass chlorine contact tanks in series (baffling factor 0.6), sized to provide ≥15 minutes of contact time at ultimate Phase 2 peak flow (0.82 MGD). Based on PERC’s prior experience achieving 5-log virus inactivation at the Santa Monica AWTF, the design delivers 9 mg-min/L CT with a 1.0 mg/L residual, meeting DDW’s 5-log virus inactivation requirement at 15°C. Sodium hypochlorite and calcium chloride are dosed upstream of the contact tank to boost residual chlorine and restore hardness while preserving the low pH needed for efficient disinfection; sodium hydroxide is dosed downstream to meet finished-water pH, Langelier Saturation Index, and calcium carbonate precipitation potential criteria.
PURIFIED WATER STORAGE,
REUSE & INJECTIONFinished water is stored in a 10,000-gallon precast concrete clearwell (sized below the chlorine contact tank’s control weir), operating near a half-full level setpoint. VFD-controlled injection pumps modulate to maintain that level while a separate pressurized branch serves intrafacility reuse (primarily UF strainer cleaning). The on-site injection well minimizes finished-water piping; before planned UF/RO backwashes, the control system pre-lowers the purified water tank level to coordinate treatment production with the temporary interruption in injection.
1.3 Reference Installations of Proposed Treatment Technologies The following table provides history and demonstrated results of our proposed treatment technologies through applicable reference installations. A Each skid is provided with its own dedicated 200-micron vacuum-suction strainer, cross-connected through interconnecting piping between trains, an improvement on the DCR’s single shared strainer, which would otherwise create a single point of failure for the entire facility. A 20,000-gallon glass-coated UF break tank (matching the EQ tank construction) provides hydraulic separation from RO, supplies UF backwash water, and buffers RO from short-duration UF cycling. Membrane skids are supplied by Toray (or equal), with automatic integrity testing to maximize log removal credit, and dedicated backwash and CIP systems (sodium hypochlorite, sodium hydroxide, citric acid) for recovery cleaning.
REVERSE OSMOSIS (RO)PERC Water evaluated a two-pass RO concept called out as a possible need in the DCR, and determined that a single-pass, high-rejection RO train can meet all water quality objectives, including the DCR’s stringent 2.6 ppm nitrogen nitrate limit, while reducing capital cost, pumping duty, controls complexity, and footprint. The RO train is configured as a three-stage, 10/6/3 vessel array (19 vessels, 6 elements each) using Toray TMG7020 (or equal) 400 SF elements, sized to deliver 0.50 MGD permeate at an average 11 gfd flux (0.55 MGD at the DCR’s 12 gfd maximum). Modeling at 25 ppm influent nitrate, 80% recovery, and 22°C shows permeate nitrate below 2.6 ppm after three years of operation, with recovery available to be lowered further if warm-weather conditions elevate influent nitrate and temperature. Conductivity is monitored on RO feed and permeate as the DDW-accepted surrogate for pathogen removal credit. The RO permeate storage tank doubles as the source for pre-formed monochloramine residual disinfection carried through the UF/RO barriers.
UV ADVANCED OXIDATION (UV-AOP)RO permeate passes through a chlorine-based UV-AOP system, the basis of design is the Trojan UVPHOX 72AL75 (or equal), the same system we installed at the Santa Monica Advanced Water Treatment Facility, rated for 0.60 MGD at 96% UVT. Chlorine was selected as the AOP oxidant (rather than peroxide) specifically to minimize the number of chemicals stored on site and because chlorine-based AOP is highly effective at the process pH (<6.0). At design conditions, the system provides 0.6-log reduction of 1,4-dioxane, 1.2-log reduction of NDMA, and 6-log pathogen reduction for virus, Giardia, and Cryptosporidium, exceeding the Title 22 minimum 0.5-log 1,4-dioxane

1.5 Facility Reliability & Operational Redundancy
Reliability is built into the CCB AWPF at both the unit-process and instrumentation level. The EQ tank includes redundant level instrumentation, low-level protection, and automatic overflow routing. The dual-strainer, dual-skid UF configuration (Section 1.2) eliminates the single point of failure inherent in the DCR’s single shared strainer. Downstream, the control system continuously monitors post-UF and post-UV-AOP water quality and automatically diverts any off-spec water to the EQ tank for re-treatment or discharge to the PBO, for example, the RO PLC will trip the out-of-compliance diversion valve if RO permeate delta-conductivity falls below 1-log removal for more than 60 seconds, ensuring water quality reliability even during an equipment upset. The table below summarizes redundancy across the major pumped systems.

1.7 Best Value & Life-Cycle Cost Basis for Equipment Selection The UV-AOP system is an example of an equipment package, for which detailed vendor scope and pricing is presented below, as a representative example of PERC’s life-cycle, best-value selection basis. The selected system is a chlorine-based TrojanUVFlex AOP10 (single chamber), inclusive of the 316 stainless steel control panel, on-line UVT/chlorine monitoring instrumentation, spare parts package, full performance (challenge) testing, and startup/training scope.
CRITERIA EVALUATION RATIONALE
Performance
Verified ability to meet dose, flow, and water quality requirements at average and peak conditions, confirmed through field/challenge testing rather than manu-facturer claims alone Confirms the equipment will reliably meet regulatory and treatment objectives over its service life, avoiding retrofit, re-testing, or non-compliance costs a low-first-cost, unverified system could carry Manufacturer Track Record / References
Documented installation history and operating feedback from comparable in-service facilities Reduces the risk of selecting equipment with unproven field performance; a lower purchase price has little value if the equipment under performs or fails prematurely in service Full Maintenance & Repair Support
Manufacturer service structure, response commitments, and spare parts provisioning Minimizes unplanned downtime and repair cost over the facility's operating life; equipment without strong service backing can cost far more to maintain than its purchase price suggests Total Cost of Ownership
Capital cost evaluated together with on-going O&M cost (energy, chemicals, consumables) rather than capital cost alone The lowest capital cost option is not always the lowest cost over the system's service life; PERC weighs cumulative O&M impact alongside first cost Scope of Supply & Material Quality
Completeness of the proposed scope against project requirements, and durability of materials of construction (e.g., corrosion-resistant enclosures) A more complete, higher-quality scope reduces change orders, retrofits, and premature component replacement, even where first cost is higher Installation & Automation Requirements
Field installation effort, footprint, and level of automation/instrumentation provided Equipment requiring less field labor and offering more automation reduces both installation cost and long-term operating labor cost Delivery Schedule & Completeness of Response
Compliance with project schedule requirements and completeness/responsiveness of the proposal Schedule certainty and proposal completeness reduce project risk and down-stream cost exposure that a lowest-bid comparison alone would not capture

Rather than selecting equipment on lowest bid alone, PERC’s evaluation weighs the best-value criteria, applying PERC’s standardized Evaluation Criteria Scoring Framework through a weighted, multi-criteria life-cycle cost evaluation methodology consistent with industry-standard practice for water equipment procurement. Applying this framework to the UV/AOP selection, the 316 stainless steel control panel and expanded performance/challenge testing scope reflect an investment in equipment durability and field-verified performance rather than added first cost with no return, consistent with PERC’s life-cycle cost basis for equipment selection.
The complete Evaluation Criteria Scoring Framework including the full weighting methodology, scoring scale, and detailed definitions for each criterion is provided in Appendix E, which groups certain related criteria (for example, capital and O&M cost) into their full, granular form for reference.
1.8 Hydraulic Considerations
The 200,000-gallon EQ tank is the primary hydraulic control element of the facility, absorbing the 0.30–1.10 MGD variability of the upstream WWTP and delivering a controlled, stable flow to the membrane barriers. Design flows are summarized in the following table. (up to 1.0 MGD) with minimal disruption to ongoing operations, and to preserve a path to 2.0 MGD or greater through a future mirrored expansion to the west of the site. »Reserved process floor space for a second RO train, with RO MCP-2 and UV Power Distribution 2 already budgeted into the electrical load summary (Section 2.4) as “FUTURE” loads. Please refer to the mechanical room layout on Sheet M1.0 and the Load Summary found on Sheet E1.0 of the preliminary plan set found in Appendix C. »With expandable UF skids, additional 0.03-micron membrane racks can be added within the existing skid frames in Phase 2 to reach 0.57 MGD per skid. »Capped stub-outs, spare conduits, structural capacity, and equipment clearances built into Phase 1 construction specifically to avoid re-opening finished process areas during Phase 2 construction. »Chlorine contact tank and purified water storage/pump station already sized for the Phase 2 peak flow of 0.82 MGD, so no expansion of that infrastructure is needed.
1.10 Durability, Materials of Construction & Structural Considerations Materials of construction were selected for durability in CCB AWPF’s corrosive process environment: glass-coated bolted-steel tanks (EQ and UF break tank) of the type commonly used in seawater desalination; NSF-61 listed, pre-baffled fiberglass chlorine contact tanks; precast concrete clearwell; and high-density cross-linked polyethylene bulk chemical storage tanks sized to each chemical’s corrosivity and consumption rate. Outdoor tanks, chemical storage, and yard piping use corrosion-resistant materials and coatings appropriate for the coastal environment.
Structural, foundation, and pipeline components will be designed to the 2022 CBC and ASCE 7-16, based on site-specific geotechnical investigation confirming a Site Class D profile and a site-modified peak ground acceleration of 0.515g. Foundations use shallow strip/isolated footings (2,000 psf) and reinforced mat foundations (3,000 psf), sized to limit static settlement to 1.0 inch and liquefaction-induced settlement to 0.6 inches. Below-grade structures (wet wells, vaults, tanks) are designed for dynamic seismic earth pressure and, given the shallow (5-ft) groundwater table, structural anchorage to resist hydrostatic buoyant uplift.
Hydraulic reliability is reinforced by the gravity-driven influent diversion and overflow (no pumps, minimal moving parts, self-relieving on high pressure), the UF break tank’s buffering of cyclic UF backwash operation from continuous RO feed demand, and the engineered baffling in the chlorine contact tanks that provides dependable contact time despite normal hydraulic variability.
1.9 Ultimate Capacity Fit & Future Expansion
The Phase 1 facility is intentionally sized and located within the proposed building to reach the City’s Phase 2 target (750 AFY) and beyond

2. NON-PROCESS DESIGN/AUXILIARY FACILITIES, TIE-INS & SYSTEM INTEGRATION2.1 Site Plan & Civil/Site Work The site plan consolidates the advanced treatment building, equalization tank, UF break tank, chemical systems, chlorine contact tanks, purified water storage, and injection well within a compact operating campus, preserving a clean westward expansion path for a future mirrored Phase 2/3 facility without disrupting Phase 1 operations.
Civil design will conform to Grover Beach and Caltrans standards: utilities will be field-verified via USA notification and potholing before earthwork; grading will establish positive drainage away from all building envelopes (minimum 6 inches below slab), with stormwater piping sized for the 25-year event (12-inch minimum) at 1% (paved/landscape) and 0.5% (concrete gutter) slopes. Site access includes a minimum of 10 parking stalls with a van-accessible ADA stall and compliant pedestrian path to the main entrance. Construction traffic control will maintain at least one open travel lane, supported by a SWPPP with BMPs and full adherence to the CEQA/NEPA mitigation measures in RFP Appendix K of the Final EIR. Please refer to Sheets C1.0, C1.1, and C1.2 for the proposed site plan, off-site yard piping, and on-site yard piping.
2.2 New Building - Architecture & Aesthetics
The AWPF building consolidates process equipment on a single process floor with an adjoining climate-controlled administrative wing (electrical room, control room, laboratory, locker room, maintenance shop), fully enclosing membrane, UV-AOP, and pumping equipment within the building envelope. The building and site integrate high-performance, sustainable architecture with the surrounding community per Grover Beach’s Industrial Design Guidelines: the Control Room is a pre-engineered metal building with a standing-seam metal roof, R-30 insulation, and durable interior finishes (slip-resistant flooring, FRP restroom wainscoting, impact corner guards), while the injection well structure uses CMU construction. The design targets LEED Silver, with building orientation optimized for passive solar heating/cooling, high-performance glazing, daylighting, and a rooftop solar PV system. Along Calvin Street, standard security fencing transitions to an aesthetic metal/vinyl picket fence adjacent to the residential lot, with a custom monument sign at the Calvin Street entrance and drought-tolerant landscaping completing a professional, neighborhood-sensitive gateway.
Renderings included in Appendix C further depict architecture and aesthetics of the new building and entire AWPF.
2.3 Building Services - HVAC
HVAC systems are sized per current American Society of Heating, Refrigerating and Air-Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE) regional climate data, with N+1 redundancy in all critical electrical, server, and control rooms to ensure continuous operation and a minimum 30-inch service clearance around all units. Control, Computer, and SCADA rooms are held under positive pressure with limited outside air, dedicated dehumidification, and three-stage filtration to protect sensitive electronics. Pad mounted units include seismic restraints, marine-grade coatings, and architectural screening per Grover Beach design guidelines.
2.4 Power Supply & Electrical Equipment
The AWPF electrical system is designed around a 1,200-amp service, with the Phase 1 (plus reserved Phase 2 future loads) motor control center load summary totaling 942.4 amps, approximately 78.5% of available capacity, leaving headroom for minor future additions beyond the explicitly reserved Phase 2 loads. The 480 VAC MCC serves all major process pumps, UF air compressors, RO CIP heater, and chemical feed heaters, with duty/standby pairs (e.g., UF Backwash Pump 1 active / Pump 2 redundant; Injection Pump 1 active / Pump 2 redundant) clearly identified in the load summary so standby equipment is not inadvertently omitted from generator sizing. Please refer to Sheet E1.0 of the provided preliminary plan set in the Appendix B for a complete Single Line Diagram and Load Summary. Exterior electrical gear to the building, potentially the Service Entrance (SES) and Automatic Transfer Switch (ATS), will be rated NEMA 3R. Electrical gear within the electrical room, such as the MCC, will be rated NEMA 12.

A standby generator provides backup power, sized specifically to place the facility in a protective “idle” mode during a utility outage, rather than sizing (and paying for) a generator large enough to sustain full treatment, while secondary effluent automatically bypasses the AWPF through the Pismo Beach Outfall for the duration of the outage. This is a deliberate cost-optimization: it avoids an oversized generator investment while fully protecting public health, since the facility fails safe to the existing outfall discharge path rather than attempting to continue treatment on emergency power. »Generator-served (critical) loads include UF Backwash Pump, RO Flush Pump, the 75 kVA and 30 kVA building/electrical-room transformers, sized to support the idle-mode/bypass strategy described above. »Reserved future electrical capacity for RO MCP-2 (150A) and UV Power Distribution 2 (100A) is already included in the load summary and physical MCC layout, supporting the Phase 2 expansion described in Section 1.9 with minimal rework.
2.5 Instrumentation & Controls
The AWPF control architecture uses a distributed PLC design rather than a single monolithic controller, improving both reliability (no single controller failure can take down the entire plant) and vendor accountability for package-specific control logic: »Pismo Beach Outfall (PBO) Diversion RIO monitors upstream/downstream outfall pressure and controls the diversion vault’s electrically actuated plug valves. »UF PLC (vendor) operates UF feed pumps, valves, and chemical injection for both UF trains; modulates feed pump speed to maintain UF break tank level; paces pre-formed monochloramine dose from UF feed flow. »RO PLC (vendor) operates RO pumps, valves, and CIP/chemical injection; sequences the train on UF break tank and purified water storage tank levels; automatically actuates the out-of-compliance diversion valve if RO permeate delta-conductivity indicates less than 1-log removal for more than 60 seconds. »UV-AOP PLC (vendor) paces sodium hypochlorite (oxidant) dose and UV dose from RO permeate flow; independently monitors water quality and can trigger the out-of-compliance diversion valve. »AWTF Main PLC provides overall plant-wide control. Outfall diversion valves, EQ tank monitoring, water-quality compliance monitoring and diversion coordination, injection & intrafacility pump control, monochloramine post-UV/AOP disinfection chemical dosing, purified water pH adjustment, and automatic system re-sequencing after a power outage.
An extensive online monitoring network supports this control architecture, including magnetic flow meters, submerged and radar level transmitters and float switches, pressure transmitters, pH/ORP probes, conductivity analyzers, and a compliance-point turbidity analyzer on UF filtrate, among others, providing the data needed for both routine process control and the automatic critical-alarm actions (diversion to waste, plant shutdown) built into the control narrative described above.
Local plant SCADA (Inductive Automation Ignition) will be fully integrated with the City’s enterprise InTouch for System Platform CIS at 980 Huber Street per the City’s SCADA standards, over an encrypted WAN via a dedicated telecom provider, with a redundant local historian continuously synchronizing to the CIS Enterprise Historian for report generation and trend/historic data storage. A real-time interface to the City’s CMMS will automatically generate preventive maintenance requests and work orders from runtime hours, flow, differential pressure, and equipment alarms/faults, providing the maintenance-support and self-diagnostic capability called for in the RFP. Cybersecurity follows ISA/IEC-62443, with no direct business-network interface at the AWPF and firewall/data-diode isolation at the CIS, and tag structures are built to support a future transition from monitoring-only to remote supervisory control, addressing the RFP’s ultimate expansion capacity requirement.
2.6 Communications & Telemetry Systems
A self-healing fiber-optic Ethernet ring forms the plant LAN, connecting all local PLCs and redundant SCADA servers via Ethernet/IP with sub-second failover to prevent communication-related shutdowns; network bandwidth is sized for double the initial data load to support Phase 2 without infrastructure replacement. A secure, encrypted wireless network with rugged industrial access points extends coverage to the property boundary, letting operators monitor and adjust process parameters and interact with the CMMS from mobile tablets anywhere on site.

»INFLUENT The new diversion vault ties into the existing Pismo Beach Outfall approximately 1,000 feet from the AWPF site, using the automated plug-valve diversion described in Section 1.2. »RESIDUALS DISCHARGE UF backwash, UF break tank overflow, RO concentrate, and other approved process residuals discharge by gravity to the existing PBO downstream of the influent diversion (0.13–0.20 MGD combined).
A redundant, Win911-based alarm notification system pushes prioritized voice/text alerts to on-call staff for critical process alarms or equipment faults.
2.7 Auxiliary Facilities: Chemical Feed Systems
Seven chemical systems support the treatment train, each sized with a minimum of 15 days of storage at anticipated Phase 2 consumption rates, stored in HDPE bulk tanks under a shade canopy on the south side of the building Bulk tank materials (high-density cross-linked polyethylene) and sizing were selected specifically for compatibility and durability with each chemical, and each system’s injection point is tied directly to the process PLC controlling that process step (Section 2.5).
2.8 TIE-INS TO EXISTING INFRASTRUCTURE
The design integrates directly with the City’s existing outfall and sanitary sewer infrastructure at multiple points:
CHEMICAL PRIMARY USE(S)TANK VOLUME (GAL)PHASE 1 STORAGE (DAYS) Sodium Hydroxide Purified water pH adjustment; UF/RO CIP caustic clean 1,550 22 Sodium Hypochlorite UF clean; RO biofouling control; post-RO oxidant; chlorine contact disinfection 3,150 22 Calcium Chloride Purified water hardness restoration 1,550 24 Sulfuric Acid RO feed acidification 250 33

»SANITARY SEWER Neutralized membrane CIP waste, injection well discharge and backwash, domestic wastewater, and applicable analyzer waste are routed to the Grover Beach and County sanitary sewer collection system. »OUT-OF-COMPLIANCE WATER Out of compliance water is returned to the EQ tank for re-treatment or PBO discharge rather than created as a new discharge point. This minimizes new tie-in infrastructure.

3. INNOVATION & DESIGN OPTIMIZATIONThe CCB AWPF design includes a number of innovations developed specifically to exceed the DCR’s minimum requirements while reducing capital cost, energy use, and long-term operational risk. These are summarized below, cross-referenced to where each is developed in detail earlier in this Technical Approach.
PROPOSAL FOR DESIGN-BUILD SERVICES CENTRAL COAST BLUE ADVANCED WATER PURIFICATION FACILITY 21 DESIGN BUILD OPER AT E| |
MINIMIZED ON-SITE CHEMICAL INVENTORY
Selecting chlorine (rather than peroxide) as the UV-AOP oxidant reduces the number of bulk chemical systems, storage tanks, and associated handling/safety requirements on site over the life of the facility, while remaining fully effective at the design pH.
RESERVED PHASE 2 CAPACITY BUILT INTO PHASE 1 CONSTRUCTION Capped stub-outs, spare conduits, pre-budgeted electrical loads (RO MCP-2, UV Power Distribution 2), expandable UF skid frames, and floor space reserved for a second RO train allow Phase 2 to be constructed with minimal disruption to ongoing Phase 1 operations, focusing on future expansion and optimal equipment/system arrangement.
CIRCULAR COMMISSIONING & OUT-OF-COMPLIANCE DIVERSION LOGIC The out-of-compliance diversion points integrated throughout the process (post-UF, post-UV-AOP, final product water) allow the plant to be fully process-tested during startup and commissioning — water can be circulated through the plant and returned to the EQ tank without risk of accidental discharge or premature injection — supporting a faster, lower-risk path to substantial completion and reducing schedule risk during acceptance testing.
DCR-PLUS CAPACITY MARGIN
Providing UF capacity (0.76 MGD) above the DCR’s 0.66 MGD minimum, and RO permeate capacity up to 0.55 MGD at the DCR’s maximum flux, builds in operating margin that improves the plant’s ability to meet water quality targets under off-design conditions (e.g., elevated influent nitrate or temperature) without equipment modification.
PUMP-LESS GRAVITY INFLUENT DIVERSION
Replacing the DCR’s two small-bore hydraulic pilot valves with dual automated 18″ plug valves and a hydraulic relief backup eliminates a pump station entirely, removes a recurring clogging failure mode, and creates a self-flushing overflow that protects the EQ tank from low-ORP conditions and RO brine scaling in the return line, all with no pumps required for normal operation.
SINGLE-PASS, HIGH- REJECTION RO TRAIN
In lieu of the DCR’s contemplated 2-pass RO concept, the single-pass 400 SF-element design meets all water quality targets (including the 2.6 ppm nitrate limit) while reducing pumping horsepower, rotating equipment count, footprint, and long-term energy and maintenance cost, an examplen of our best-value equipment selection on a life-cycle basis, as described previously.
DUAL CROSS- CONNECTED UF STRAINERS
Providing an independent strainer on each UF skid, cross-connected through interconnecting piping, removes the single point of failure created by the DCR’s single shared strainer concept, directly improving facility-wide reliability.
RIGHT-SIZED STANDBY GENERATOR W/ AUTO BYPASS
Sizing the standby generator to place the plant in a protective idle mode, with automatic bypass of secondary effluent through the existing outfall, rather than a full-treatment-capacity generator, optimizes capital cost while fully protecting public health during a power outage.

Delivery of Materials
Material deliveries are scheduled to align with the installation sequence. Just-in-time delivery windows are coordinated directly with the superintendent’s look-ahead schedule rather than set on a fixed calendar basis, allowing adjustment as field conditions evolve.
Site logistics plans are coordinated with delivery schedules to designate laydown areas appropriate to each material type. For high-volume materials (piping, conduit, structural steel), deliveries are released in scheduled increments tied to installation sequence. For large or heavy equipment (tanks, skids, switchgear), delivery windows are coordinated with crane availability and site access constraints to avoid delivery-to-installation gaps that could require additional handling, temporary storage, or re-lifting.
SCHEDULE-CONSTRAINING RESOURCESThe table below outlines the resources PERC Water has identified as having greatest potential to constrain construction progress.
1. CONSTRUCTION PLANNING & CONSTRUCTION SEQUENCING
RESOURCE TECHNIQUES TO PREVENT CONSTRUCTION PROGRESS IMPACTS Permitting, procurement, labor, & field activities
Following 60% design, PERC submits early work packages for critical activities (grading, excavation, site utilities, tank/building foundations, shells) allowing construction to advance while the design is completed. This approach fast-tracks construction while the remaining design is being completed, maximizing available labor and equipment resources and maintaining Project schedule progress.
Extended manufacturing & procurement lead time
PERC identifies long-lead materials and equipment (UF/RO skids, VFDs/MCC gear, tanks, disinfection equipment) during design and prioritizes procurement based on schedule impact. Following 60% design, purchase orders and submittals for critical items will be initiated to secure manufacturing capacity. We also monitor supplier commitments to concurrent projects and seek early production allocations or reserved manufacturing slots when capacity is shared.
Skilled Labor
Critical-path activities are identified during scheduling to confirm crew availability with subcontractors and labor sources prior to mobilization. This process will also be performed each time new three-week lookaheads are established and published.
Temporary Facilities
Site offices, temporary power and water, and laydown/staging areas will be established early in accordance with the Site Logistics Plan. Facilities will be sized for peak workforce and material-storage requirements identified in the resource-loaded schedule.
Resource Leveling & Concurrent Projects
PERC cross-references required subcontractors, suppliers, equipment, and project management resources against other active projects to identify shared-resource conflicts. Where conflicts arise, we will adjust sequencing within available float or provide supplemental resources such as rental equipment or backup labor to protect the critical path.
Monitoring & Reporting
We track schedule-constraining resources through regular progress reporting, including emerging availability risks, mitigation measures, and updated schedule forecasts Construction Machinery & Equipment
Qualified subcontractors will provide and maintain equipment for their scopes, with PERC confirming equipment plans during qualification and pre-mobilization. Relationships with multiple rental companies provide backup capacity for cranes, drill rigs, aerial lifts, and other specialized equipment. Major equipment will be identified and reserved in advance, with conflicts monitored and alternatives arranged as needed.
Procurement Approach
We structure procurement to align material and equipment availability directly with the DB Project Schedule’s critical path. Procurement planning begins during preconstruction and continues as an actively managed discipline through substantial completion, rather than a one-time activity tied only to Notice to Proceed.
During preconstruction, our engineering and procurement teams jointly screen all major equipment and material categories to identify long-lead items. Once identified, each long-lead item is entered into a long-lead procurement log, tracked from identification through delivery and installation. This log is reviewed on a bi-weekly basis with the Project Team to maintain full visibility and allow early intervention before a procurement delay becomes a field delay.

INNOVATIVE TECHNIQUESPerformance Based Specifications is a specialized equipment pre-selection process that regularly yields 30%+ cost savings vs. original estimates. During 30% design, a Performance-Based Specification pre-selection process is used for the selection of all major equipment. Formal performance-based specifications that clearly define project objectives and process design criteria are sent to prospective equipment vendors to obtain process performance guarantees and formal and firm guaranteed capital and operational quotes for equipment, ensuring the best quality equipment is considered at competitive pricing.
Figure 4 • Performance Based Specifications Pre-Selection Process 📍
SECONDARYCONSTRUCTIONENTRANCE/EXIT
📍
CONSTRUCTIONENTRANCE/EXIT
MATERIAL STORAGE, LAYDOWN, & STAGING AREA PARKING OFFICE TRAILERS Due to advances in water treatment technology, systems are becoming more proprietary, and it is increasingly difficult to provide a complete unit process design for bid without essentially sole sourcing the major equipment. In a typical project, where the facility is designed around one type of equipment, the final cost of the project is often higher than if competitive bidding were performed. However, waiting until the design is completed to allow competitive bidding on the equipment reduces the interest of potential suppliers and can result in substantial redesign to implement value-added alternatives. The use of performance-based specifications in the equipment selection process facilitates competitive bids, evaluation of capital and operational costs, and operational performance with “real numbers” prior to putting pencil to paper. The major advantage is that the project team can proceed to design knowing the cost and equipment they will be using in the project without losing the benefit of a competitive free market.
Additional cost and schedule benefits of Performance Based Specifications Pre-Selection include: »Schedule compression through overlapping procurement lead time »Price certainty by securing vendor commitments and production slots ahead of market escalation or allocation pressure from competing regional projects, »Reduced change order exposure by integrating vendor-confirmed equipment data into design before construction documents are finalized Construction Sequencing
SITE LAYOUT APPROACH
PROPOSAL FOR DESIGN-BUILD SERVICES CENTRAL COAST BLUE ADVANCED WATER PURIFICATION FACILITY 24 DESIGN BUILD OPER AT E| |
DRAINAGE & STORMWATER MANAGEMENTPrior to mobilization, PERC will implement a SWPPP with perimeter controls, stabilized construction entrances, inlet protection, and stockpile/spoils controls. Construction stormwater and sediment will be isolated from existing and proposed utilities and permanent process systems until commissioning.
BMPs will be inspected and maintained through final stabilization.
ROADWAYS & TRAFFIC MANAGEMENTConstruction access will be provided primarily from Huber Street. A traffic control plan will address haul routes, potential Huber Street lane closures, deliveries, and coordination with the City.
SITE SECURITYThe existing perimeter fence will be maintained and supplemented with temporary fencing around active work areas. A controlled, gated Huber Street entrance will monitor personnel, vehicles, and deliveries. Site access will be logged, and tools, equipment, and hazardous materials will be stored in secured areas. Barricades and signage will protect excavations and trenches. Temporary security cameras may be installed at the entrance and laydown areas for off-hours monitoring.
WASTE STREAM MANAGEMENT &
DISPOSALConstruction debris and unsuitable excavated material will be recycled or disposed of at approved off-site facilities. Hazardous materials will be stored, handled, and disposed of in accordance with applicable regulations, with spill-prevention measures at fueling and laydown areas. Concrete washout will be contained in designated areas. Required dewatering will be appropriately treated or permitted before discharge and kept separate from permanent process and stormwater systems until completion.
Permanent facilities will be located as far east on the Project Site as practical to avoid the Coastal Zone and preserve the western portion for construction offices, parking, laydown, staging, and temporary facilities. The Site will be secured with temporary fencing: Primary construction access will be from Huber Street, with secondary access from the connecting road between Barca and Huber Streets. A detailed laydown and mobilization plan will be finalized with the City during design development. Construction staging will be confined to previously disturbed, non-vegetated areas to the extent practicable.
CONSTRUCTION LAYDOWN AREAS Laydown, material storage, parking, and temporary facilities will be located within the designated western construction logistics area and coordinated with the construction sequence to maintain safe access and avoid interference with permanent construction.
CLEARING & GRADING. The developed footprint, including tanks, Mechanical Building, chemical area, driveway, parking, and yard piping, will remain primarily within the previously disturbed area east of the Coastal Zone Boundary. Clearing and grading will be limited to these areas. Clearing within the southern vegetated area will be limited to installation of the source water and concentrate waste lines to the outfall.
UNDISTURBED AREASVegetated areas within the Coastal Zone will remain outside the facility footprint, preserving the buffer between the developed area and Calvin Ct. Dense vegetation along the northern property line will also remain undisturbed except where required for permitted utility work.
MITIGATIONPERC will minimize impacts to sensitive areas by limiting ground disturbance to approved areas, completing required pre-construction biological surveys, complying with agency work-timing restrictions, and maintaining existing fencing and vegetated buffers. PERC will coordinate with the Owner and agencies to satisfy applicable permit and mitigation requirements.
2. APPROACH TO SAFETY
Goals, Standards, & Guidelines
PERC Water treats safety as a core project objective equal to quality and schedule. Our goal for this, and every, Project is zero incidents through proactive planning, continuous communication, and strict adherence to regulatory requirements. Safety considerations begin with design and are integrated into construction through full compliance with Cal/OSHA, OSHA, and all applicable federal, state, and local regulations.

Records include the HASP and revisions, JHAs, PSIs, toolbox talk attendance logs, safety meeting minutes, Safety Data Sheets (SDS), incident and near-miss reports, OSHA recordkeeping logs, training records, and daily site access logs.
Safety Review Process
Safety planning will follow a three-tier process consisting of:1. Project-Specific HASP2. Activity-Specific Job Hazard Analyses (JHAs) 3. Daily Pre-Task Safety Inspections (PSIs) This process will be reinforced through daily toolbox talks, weekly safety coordination meetings with project staff and subcontractors, monthly safety audits, and immediate incident and near-miss reviews to identify root causes and implement corrective actions.
Construction Traffic Management & Equipment/Chemical Safety Training Construction traffic will be managed through project-specific Traffic Control and Site Logistics Plans that provide approved traffic control measures, designated haul routes, public notifications, coordination with local agencies, and appropriate pedestrian and vehicle protection. Personnel will receive task-specific safety training before performing work, including excavation and trenching, rigging and crane operations, confined space entry, drilling activities, electrical safety and lockout/tagout, respirable crystalline silica controls, and Hazard Communication (HazCom) training for the safe handling, storage, personal protective equipment, and spill response associated with project chemicals.
Personnel Tracking & Site Access Control
Site access will be controlled through secured fencing, barricades, designated entry points, mandatory site safety orientation, visitor escort procedures, and daily sign-in/sign-out procedures for all personnel, subcontractors, vendors, and visitors. Daily headcounts and access logs will be maintained at each active work area, with digital tracking tools utilized where appropriate to improve accountability across multiple construction locations.
STOP WORKAUTHORITY LEADINGINDICATOR HAZARD COMM.CHEMICAL SAFETY SUBCONTRACTORACCOUNTABILITY CONTINUOUS IMPROVEMENT The Project will be governed by PERC Water’s corporate Injury & Illness Prevention Program (IIPP) and supplemented by a Project-specific Health and Safety Plan (HASP).

5. APPROACH TO STARTUP, TESTING & PLANT ACCEPTANCETeam Approach As an integrated design, build, operate firm, PERC’s Commissioning Approach begins with operator led design reviews and continues seamlessly through construction, start-up, testing, operator training, and final acceptance. We structure a phase-gate Commissioning Approach, with defined exit and entry criteria, in which each process system is systemically commissioned independently before progressively integrating the complete CCB AWPF treatment process train. Advancement between phases occurs only after completion of documented inspections, testing, and formal sign-off; ensuring deficiencies, if any, are resolved prior to beginning subsequent commissioning activities.
Our Commissioning Approach is staged in four sequential phases:
1. PRE-COMMISSIONING Verification of equipment installation, Factory Acceptance Test (FAT) reviews, receipt of manufacturer certifications, pressure testing, instrument calibration, loop checks, and installation verification.
2. DRY COMMISSIONING Functional testing of electrical, instrumentation, control systems, SCADA integration, alarm simulations, startup and shutdown sequences, and automatic control logic without process water.
3. WET COMMISSIONING Progressive introduction of potable water to process loops followed by integrated system testing under automatic operation to verify hydraulic performance, instrumentation, control sequences, process integration, & system functionality.
4. START-UP AND PERFORMANCE ACCEPTANCE Introduction of process water, verification of membrane integrity, RO & UV/AOP operation, treatment performance, regulatory monitoring,completion of the required 30-day performance test. Regulatory Approvals required for acceptance testing include NPDES, WDR, WRRs, and Conditional Approval Letter from the SWRCB DDW.
Commissioning Considerations Integrated in Design
Successful start-up begins long before water enters the facility. Key design input from our operators is focused on features that govern a smooth start-up:
»Access for operation, maintenance, and removal of equipment, with confined spaces minimized & clearances confirmed »Placement/redundancy of process-control instrumentation across the MF/UF, RO, UV/AOP, chemical, & finished-water systems »Chemical supply, & injection points; secondary containment and leak detection »Convenient electrical receptacles, service air, & service-water stations for commissioning activities »Chemical storage and delivery details, sized for 15 days of storage and ultimate buildout »FAT procedures and schedules,
»Sampling provisions at each unit-process boundary to support water-quality verification and Title 22 monitoring Approach to Key Issues
Issues are evaluated through a root-cause analysis structured to identify underlying cause rather than simply addressing symptoms. If equipment manufacturer support is required, PERC will coordinates directly with OEM representatives to expedite troubleshooting, warranty support, and, most importantly, technical resolution. Significant issues are elevated through our established management structure as described. The table below identifies potential CCB Project risks/issues along with proposed mitigation strategies:
KEY ISSUE MITIGATION STRATEGY
MF/UF membrane integrity & turbidity
Automated pressure-decay integrity testing; staged flux/recovery ramp; backwash/air-scour optimization; turbidity verified to Title 22 before downstream commissioning.
RO scaling / fouling & recovery
Antiscalant and acid dosing verification; conservative flux (≤ 12 GFD) and ≤ 80% recovery confirmation; CIP commissioning and baseline normalization to detect early fouling.

Design Build Contract Article(s) and Section(s) or Appendix Section: Design-Build Agreement, Article 14, Page 12; Exhibit I, Pages 1-3 & 56-58
Page Number: 12
Suggested Alternate Concept and Language:
We propose a cap on project as we will not be able to guarantee performance of injection well. Also suggest adding an additional injection well.
Rationale and Benefits to the City (including relative percentage cost savings or increase)*:
Achievement of Substantial Completion is contingent on unconditionally passing strict performance in Exhibit I. Section 14.3 forces PERC to bear all design and construction costs to correct deficiencies until the Project passes, with no financial cap on liability (see item 4).
* In no event shall a Respondent include any price information on this form.

SUGGESTED CHANGES TO THE DESIGN BUILD CONTRACT (OPTIONAL)
To be submitted with the Proposal Only.
Copy and complete this form as necessary (make reference in the contract document also, via track changes).
Each item shall be numbered and shall include the following information.
Design Build Contract Article(s) and Section(s) or Appendix Section: Design-Build Agreement, Article 2 / Sections 2.1.3 & 2.1.6, Pages 2-3; DBIA General Conditions Sections 1.2.2, 4.2.1, 4.2.3, & 3.2.1 Page Number: 2
Suggested Alternate Concept and Language:
Change Section 2.1.3 allowing DB team to rely on the Owner's Reference Documents for baseline site data as we are using this information to determine and prepare the Performance Criteria etc. If PERC wants to rely on the documents listed in Exhibit C as Basis of Design, we need to revise 1.2.2 accordingly.
In 4.2.1, extend the written notice period from 7 days to 14 days, and change "immediate" to "prompt" verbal notice.
Rationale and Benefits to the City (including relative percentage cost savings or increase)*:
Section 2.1.3 shifts sole liability for design and construction to DB Firm "notwithstanding the information contained in the Owner's Project background documents." Section 1.2.2 states documents listed in Exhibit C are not warranted as Basis of Design Documents. Section 3.2.1 disclaims Owner responsibility for subsurface data. Section 4.2.1 requires "immediate" verbal notice and strict 7-day written notice for Differing Site Conditions (DSC), stating in 4.2.3 that failure to perfectly comply acts as a total waiver of DB teams rights.
* In no event shall a Respondent include any price information on this form.

PROPOSAL FORM 1
SUGGESTED CHANGES TO THE DESIGN BUILD CONTRACT (OPTIONAL)
To be submitted with the Proposal Only.
Copy and complete this form as necessary (make reference in the contract document also, via track changes).
Each item shall be numbered and shall include the following information.
Design Build Contract Article(s) and Section(s) or Appendix Section: Design-Build Agreement, Article 13 / Section 13.1, Pages 11-12
Page Number: 11
Suggested Alternate Concept and Language:
Insert a new Section 13.2 establishing an aggregate limitation of liability. The total aggregate liability should be capped at either a specific percentage of the Contract Price and/or the limits of the Project’s insurance policies.
Rationale and Benefits to the City (including relative percentage cost savings or increase)*:
While the contract includes a mutual waiver of consequential damages, it doesn’t include a global aggregate limitation of liability to cap DB team total financial exposure under the contract.
* In no event shall a Respondent include any price information on this form.

Each item shall be numbered and shall include the following information.
Design Build Contract Article(s) and Section(s) or Appendix Section: DBIA General Conditions, Section
2.3.1, Page 7
Page Number: 7
Suggested Alternate Concept and Language:
Suggested change would be to strike "in a manner that is in the Owner's economic and governmental best interests." This phrase inappropriately elevates the professional standard of care to a fiduciary - like standard, which is uninsurable.
Rationale and Benefits to the City (including relative percentage cost savings or increase)*:
While the clause correctly identifies the standard of care for design professionals, it adds vague language stating DB team must perform services "in a manner that is in the Owner's economic and governmental best interests."
* In no event shall a Respondent include any price information on this form.

1 1. INTRODUCTION
1.1 PROJECT INFORMATION
This Design-Build Quality Management Plan (DBQMP) details the measures and procedures required to assure compliance with the quality control provisions of the design and construction for:
Project: Central Coast Blue Advanced Water Purification Facility
Owner: City of Pismo Beach
760 Mattie Road, Pismo Beach, CA 93449
Contractor: PERC Water
17520 Newhope Street, Suite 180, Fountain Valley, CA 92708
1.2 QUALITY APPROACH
The concept of quality has evolved from simply conforming to specifications to that of meeting owner goals and requirements. Design quality control has advanced from checking deliverables to multiple reviews and evaluations, concurrent with owner reviews. All design services must result in a facility that meets the goals set out by the City of Pismo Beach (City/Owner) and PERC Water (PERC/DB) on Central Coast Blue (CCB) Advanced Water Purification Facility (AWPF).
This Plan presents the design Quality Assurance (QA)/Quality Control (QC) concepts and procedures that will be followed by PERC and all Design Team members during the design and construction of the Project. See Error! Reference source not found. for three features of our Design-build Quality Management Plan (DBQMP) – Quality Manual, Procedures, and Record Keeping.

Preliminary Design Build Quality Management Plan August 2026 Central Coast Blue AWPF
2 The purpose of this plan is to establish minimum requirements for quality assurance and quality control procedures to be implemented during the design phase in adherence to the project contract. This plan also is compliant with PERC Water’s ISO 9001 Quality Manual and Quality Management System (QMS) practices to successfully accomplish the QMS scope that “supports the management of design, build, and contract operation of water and wastewater infrastructure for municipalities, water special districts, government agencies and private clients.”
The DBQMP may be subject to revisions and updates during the development and construction phase.
Resubmission of this plan will be provided to the City upon revision and as required in the project contract.
1.3 UNDERSTANDING OF PROJECT OBJECTIVES
The City of Pismo Beach to contract with PERC Water as the Design Build (DB) contractor to design and build the CCB AWFP. In a collaborative team partnership environment with the City, PERC Water will design and construct the facility to include all infrastructure and equipment required for facility functions and will also support administrative and operational functions for the successful commissioning and startup of the CCB AWFP.
PERC Water shall design and construct the project in compliance with contract documentation requirements provided in the project contract and adhere to the following project elements:
• New AWPF with a nominal product water capacity of approximately 0.50 mgd to produce 500 AFY based on 90 percent availability.
• Equalization storage tank with a minimum usable volume of 200,000 gallons, including automated flow control and isolation.
• Advanced treatment systems including pressurized MF/UF with a minimum of two skids and automated integrity testing, a two‑stage RO system designed for at least 80 percent recovery, and a UV/AOP system providing pathogen reduction and a minimum 0.5‑log reduction of 1,4‑dioxane. • Post‑treatment facilities for pH, alkalinity, hardness, and finished water stabilization, followed by final chlorination to meet permit requirements.
• Chemical storage and feed systems sized for ultimate buildout, including a minimum of 15 days of storage capacity, secondary containment, leak detection, and Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) integration.
• Purified water storage tank and pump station capable of conveying product water to the injection well or diverting flow to the Pismo Beach Outfall (PBO) during off‑specification or constrained conditions. • Approximately 1,000 linear feet of influent high-density polyethylene (HDPE) pipeline conveying secondary effluent from the PBO to the AWPF, and approximately 1,000 linear feet of HDPE pipeline conveying RO concentrate to the PBO.
• Pipeline connections to the sanitary sewer system for conveyance of domestic and process waste streams.
• Groundwater recharge infrastructure including one injection well at the AWPF site and two monitoring wells (one on-site and one near future extraction well PB‑31). • Electrical power distribution, instrumentation, and control systems. • Training and support period of 600 hours from an Advanced Water Treatment Operator (AWTO) 5 within a 6-month period to support operational staff readiness post issuance of substantial completion.
1.4 GOALS AND OBJECTIVES
The purpose of this Design-Build Quality Management Plan (DBQMP) is to summarize the Quality Assurance (QA)/Quality Control (QC) processes developed by PERC to verify that the quality of the CCB AWPF project meets the quality requirements specified in the City’s project documents. PERC and its subcontractors are
Preliminary Design Build Quality Management Plan August 2026 Central Coast Blue AWPF
3 responsible for the project design and construction in accordance with project documents including the contract, plans, specifications, and this DBQMP. PERC will implement all DBQMP requirements in all subcontracts throughout the life of the prime contract.
Personnel responsible for quality control and assurance, roles and descriptions listed below:
• PERC Quality Team
The PERC QC leadership team consisting of the Design Build Quality Manager, Quality Assurance Manager, Design Build Project Manager, Design Manager, and Operations Manager will appoint personnel to oversee and manage all areas of the quality program. • City of Pismo Beach

All work shall be subject to inspection, testing and approval by the Owner and Engineer at any time, at Owner or Engineer’s discretion.
• Subcontractor Teams
To be further developed pending final contract and subsequent subcontract requirements.
1.5 TEAM COMMUNICATION
One of PERC Water’s primary quality goals for the CCB AWPF project is to fully align with the City of Pismo Beach’s “team partnership environment” that begins with effective communication before the project starts (NTP) and well after the project ends (successful operation).
As outlined in the City’s RFP, the City of Pismo Beach’s team collaborative input throughout permitting, design, construction, testing, and O&M training and support of the CCB AWPF project is essential in ensuring the successful completion of this project on schedule and within budget.
Communication methods for this project will include but are not limited to the following:
- In person (City offices and project site)
- Remote meetings (MS Teams)
- Email and Phone
- As needed/by exception critical items meetings
- Weekly coordination check-in/status meetings
- Monthly status meetings
- Focused technical review meetings
- Monthly progress reports
- Detailed Action Item Logs
As part of PERC Water’s commitment to providing our clients with excellent customer service, the City will be provided with an opportunity provide performance feedback as required by our ISO 9001: 2015 Quality Management System (#1120690) certification. The City will receive an email requesting completion of Customer Survey and Feedback that will be used and evaluated in our annual QMS re-certification process as shown below (CORE Compliance Platform software).
Preliminary Design Build Quality Management Plan August 2026 Central Coast Blue AWPF
4 Additionally, the City will also be provided with the opportunity to document any concerns or complaints of PERC Water performance using a Customer Complaint Form as shown below (CORE Compliance Platform software).

The Quality Control Manager, in conjunction with the Construction Project Manager, will forecast manpower or construction equipment needed to appropriately carry out quality control functions to the requirements outlined in project documents. If quality control activities require extensive resources, time allotment, manpower, special staging, or special closures, such activities will be checked and compared to information presented on the project schedule. If quality control duties impact the project schedule, the schedule will be revised to account for any disparities.
4.4 CONSTRUCTION QUALITY ISSUES
This section provides procedures for documenting and tracking quality issues arising from construction deficiencies, non-compliant items of work, or a nonconformance. It defines the controls and related responsibilities and authorities for dealing with minor quality issues.
4.4.1 Quality Issue Identification
A quality issue occurs when material, performed work, or installation does not meet the plans, specifications, or project requirements. Inspectors are responsible for identifying and documenting quality issues during inspections and tests. If contract documents do not contain a specified requirement or control limit for a piece of work, PERC will propose one. Inspectors will be aware of common items that cause quality issues such as:
• Obsolete or substandard test or inspection procedures • Inadequate work planning
• Changed conditions
• Materials problems
• Unqualified work personnel
Preliminary Design Build Quality Management Plan August 2026 Central Coast Blue AWPF
40 • Poor workmanship
• Inadequate or incomplete information
• Additional or special inspection/testing requirements • Conflicting information within the contract or reference documents
4.4.2 Quality Issue Process Control
When material, performed work, or installation is found nonconforming, the Quality Control Manager ensures that the nonconforming material, work, or installation is documented as a quality issue and tracked until the deficiency is corrected. Deficient items or specific work areas may be segregated, tagged/marked or labeled as the Quality Control Manager deems necessary and controlled to prevent unintended use or delivery. PERC will take action to ensure that work does not continue on the affected featured work until the deficiencies are corrected.
The Quality Control Manager will also be responsible for maintaining an on-going record of each quality issue until the deficiency has been resolved. This will come in the form of an electronic database or Quality Issue Log that is posted.
• Assign an NCR control number
• Monitoring the Nonconformance Report Log
• Reviewing the nonconformance description for accuracy and completeness • Validating that an NCR is warranted
• Reviewing the approved NCR disposition to verify that all nonconforming conditions have been addressed and the NCR disposition is stated correctly as:
o Reject
o Rework
o Repair
o Use-As-Is
• Ensuring that the corrective action is accomplished in accordance with the corrective action stated through inspections by the inspection staff, as required.
Quality issues noted during testing or inspection will be verbally reported to the contractor’s representative, noted in the Daily Construction Report, and followed with written communication. The Quality Control Manager will be responsible for identifying the inspection and test status of work during production or installation.
The originator of quality issues and the contractor’s representative that is responsible for the work will be responsible for closing issues after correction. Minor issues that can be controlled at the project level will not require formal action from the Quality Control Manager. Ideally, such minor deficiencies can be corrected on the spot during an inspection by agreement with the contractor’s supervisor and a quality issue will be recorded and corrective action will be taken. Acceptance of the corrective action will be noted.
The Engineer is responsible for ensuring that the contractor’s proposed corrective action resolves the nonconformance, avoids recurrence, and meets all specification design requirements. The Engineer is responsible for initiating and coordinating reviews and approvals (from contractor, EMC, Quality Assurance, Safety, etc.) as required. Determine the appropriate disposition status: reject, rework, repair, use-as-is. Inaction or continued failure to initiate corrective action by the contractor, subcontractor, etc., is a basis for issuing a Corrective Action Request to senior management of the organization responsible. The Engineer is responsible for including all NCRs open at the time of prefinal inspection on the Preliminary Punchlist. The Engineer shall utilize the PERC computerized NCR Database to determine the status of NCRs at least monthly.

41 4.4.3 Nonconformance Report
A nonconformance is a deviation from contract requirements and/or accepted standard of quality. Failure to correct a quality issue after having been put on notice and given ample opportunity to do so may also result in a nonconformance. The prime contractor over a scope of work will be responsible for correcting and resolving any nonconformance for that scope of work as quickly and early as possible and practically. Any repetitive nonconformance will require upper management program level attention.
A Nonconformance Report (NCR) will be used to formally document and notify a contractor of a nonconformance. NCRs will be tracked on a log through corrective actions by the QC staff or any other designated party responsible for quality. NCR’s will be given a control number for each report, this will be given by Quality Control Manager.
NCRs will be transmitted to the Owner within 24 hours. Nonconforming work will be tracked until it is found to be conforming or verified / accepted by the Owner.
The Quality Control Manager will monitor that updates to the Nonconformance Report Log are being performed.
The Quality Control Manager also monitors that the completed (closed) NCRs are distributed to the following individuals (placing the original in the contract documentation files):
• PERC QC Team
• Construction Project Manager
• Quality Assurance Inspector
• Subcontractors
• Originator
• Resident Engineer
4.4.4 Quality Issue Corrective Action
The Quality Manager will ensure that quality issue corrections are implemented. PERC and/or the responsible subcontractor or vendor will conduct an investigation of the root cause of nonconforming work and determine the corrective action to prevent recurrence.
The primary step will be to ensure that the nonconforming material or work is tagged and segregated. If segregation is impractical or impossible because of the physical characteristics of the item or other reasons, additional action will be taken to preclude inadvertent use of the material or work. The Quality Manager along with the contractor will make every effort to detect and eliminate potential causes on nonconforming work.
Corrective action, as determined by this DBQMP or another contract document will be implemented. Corrective actions will be effective and will remedy work to ensure conformance with the drawings and specifications.
Changes in procedures resulting from corrective action will be documented and reported.
If a corrective action includes removal and replacement, removal must be done in a manner that does not disturb work that meets acceptance criteria; otherwise, the disturbed material must also be removed and replaced.
Replacement or repair of work must be done in accordance with the corresponding technical specifications or corrective action accepted by the Owner or Engineer of Record. Replacement or repair will be subjected to the same scope of QC inspection and testing as the original work.
Corrective action for items contained in technical specifications will be based on information contained in the project documents as well as industry accepted practices. For corrective action of a specialized nature, a corrective action plan will be developed and submitted to the Owner within seven (7) days of the identification of the issue.
Preliminary Design Build Quality Management Plan August 2026 Central Coast Blue AWPF
42 The corrective action plan will be reviewed and approved by the Owner or Engineer of Record before remedial action is implemented.
4.4.5 Preventative Actions
Preventive action will be taken to eliminate the cause of potential nonconforming work. PERC, suppliers, and subcontractors should identify and plan the production and installation processes that directly affect quality.
PERC will utilize suppliers and subcontractors that have similar project experience with the task they are to perform. Construction processes will be performed under the appropriate control conditions for that work.
Submittal review will be performed by the Contractor to ensure that the appropriate materials are used. Tagging and sampling will also be performed whenever possible to ensure that the materials that are described on the project submittal are consistent with the materials that are delivered to the project site.
Coordination meetings will be held for major features of work where quality issues will be discussed. The QC staff should familiarize themselves with the most prevalent causes for nonconformity and alert the contractor when they are observed in the field.
4.4.6 Discrepancies and Dispute Resolution
A discrepancy is defined as a significant difference between results of the Quality Assurance inspection and test results and Quality Control results. A discrepancy is also defined as a situation where the Owner’s quality assurance testing results in a failed test, and the contractor’s test of the same material or sample indicates a passing test, or vice versa. Dispute Resolution will follow the guidelines as summarized by the following:
The Owner and the Contractor will initiate an immediate and cooperative investigation. All information of test results will be shared and investigation of procedures and facilities to attempt to remedy any contradictions. Resolution will be made that both the Owner and the Contractor find to be acceptable.
4.4.7 Stop Work Action
The DB Contractor and CITY shall have the right to orally notify and confirm in writing, to the DB Contractor suppliers of any situation where, in the judgement of the DB Contractor and/or CITY, the DB Contractor suppliers or sub-suppliers are performing work contrary to the conditions and terms of the procurement documents or where continued operations could cause damage, preclude further inspection or render remedial action ineffective for any product form/service provided by the DB Contractor suppliers or sub-suppliers. • If, after such notification, the DB Contractor supplier does not commence appropriate corrective action to the satisfaction of the DB Contractor and/or CITY, the DB Contractor and/or CITY may initiate stop work action on the specified product form/services and so notify the supplier in writing (a "Stop Work Directive").
• Upon receipt of a Stop Work Directive, the suppliers shall cease operations, including shipments, on any specified product form/ service to the extent stipulated by the Stop Work Directive. o Resumption of operations shall not be undertaken until the DB Contractor supplier has obtained a written authorization from the DB Contractor.
o A written authorization to resume further operations shall only be granted upon approval by the DB Contractor of the DB Contractor supplier's written commitment to correct the conditions itemized on the Stop Work Directive.
o If CITY has issued a Stop Work Directive, the DB Contractor shall not issue authorization to resume activities without the written consent of CITY.

1 1. INTRODUCTION
1.1 PROJECT INFORMATION
This Risk Management Plan (RMP) details the measures and procedures required to assure the identification, evaluation, and mitigation of potential negative impacts for the following:
Project: Central Coast Blue Advanced Water Purification Facility
Owner: City of Pismo Beach
760 Mattie Road, Pismo Beach, CA 93449
Design Build Contractor: PERC Water
17520 Newhope Street, Suite 180, Fountain Valley, CA 92708
1.2 PURPOSE OF THE RISK MANAGEMENT PLAN
Risk is an event or condition that, if it occurs, could have a positive or negative effect on a project’s objectives.
Risk Management is the process of identifying, assessing, responding to, monitoring and controlling, and reporting risks. This Risk Management Plan defines how risks associated with the City of Pismo Beach (City) Central Coast Blue (CCB) Advance Water Purification Facility (AWPF) project will be identified, analyzed, and managed. It outlines how risk management activities will be performed, recorded, and monitored throughout the lifecycle of the project and provides templates and practices for recording and prioritizing risks by the Risk Manager and/or Risk Management Team.
1.3 ALIGNMENT WITH QUALITY MANAGEMENT SYSTEM
PERC Water’s approach to our Quality Management System (QMS) is based on the Plan, Do, Check, Act cycle (PDCA). The basis of our business beliefs represented in three pillars:
Customer Focus
Our customers are the reason we exist. We aim to meet or exceed their needs and expectations to make them successful. We will even try to anticipate their needs and introduce solutions they have not seen before in the spirit of true partnership. Our success depends upon our customers’ success.
Process Approach
To deliver on our commitment to total customer focus, we constantly work on our internal processes to maximize their effectiveness and efficiency. We recognize that it takes countless individual activities to deliver our products and services and that the process approach ties them all together. Our business is a process that transforms several inputs (customer requirements, resources, skilled employees, etc.) into an output that meets our customers’ needs. Within our business are several key processes that make it all work. Our processes are dependent upon one another and individually need continual attention and improvement. We are constantly
Preliminary Risk Management Plan August 2026
Central Coast Blue AWPF
2 challenging ourselves to refine and change how we do things to reduce the time it takes to get something done with the least errors. When errors do occur, we use them as opportunities to learn and improve. We are never satisfied with how things are working now and strive to raise our game every day.
Risk-Based Thinking
Looking ahead to anticipate what could happen is the reason we employ risk-based thinking throughout our organization. At several points in our process, we purposely stop and ask two probing questions:
➢ “What could go wrong?”
➢ “Is there a way to improve?”
This perspective of constantly watching for risks and opportunities leads us to action which we carefully manage to ensure timely implementation and effective results. This gives us an attitude of being proactive to take advantage of every opportunity to improve.
We intend these three basic beliefs to cause our customers to stand up and take notice of the difference we provide to them on a daily basis. PERC Water provides the highest project value to our clients by following the quality approach below.
Preliminary Risk Management Plan August 2026
Central Coast Blue AWPF
3 2. RISK MANAGEMENT PROCEDURE
2.1 PROCESS
The project manager working with the project team and project sponsors will ensure that risks are actively identified, analyzed, and managed throughout the life of the project. Risks will be identified as early as possible in the project to minimize their impact. The steps for accomplishing this are outlined in the following sections.
The Design Build Project Manager will serve as the Risk Manager for the CCB AWPF project.
2.2 ROLES AND RESPONSIBILITIES
Summarized below are the roles and responsibilities of the PERC Water team for managing risk on the CCB AWFP project:
Name Role Responsibility
Joe Winkler Risk
Manager/DB
Project
Manager
The Risk Manager or DB PM is a member of the Integrated Project Team (IPT).
The Risk Manager / DB PM determines if the Risk is unique, identifies risk interdependencies across projects, verifies if risk is internal or external to project, assigns risk classification and tracking number. During the life of the project, the Risk Manager / DB PM continually monitors the projects for potential risks.
Kevin Tirado
Eric Gonzales
Dawn Halpern
Integrated
Project Team
The IPT is responsible for identifying the risks, the dependencies of the risk within the project, the context and consequence of the risk. They are also responsible for determining the impact, timing, and priority of the risk as well as formulating the risk statements.
TBD Risk
Owner(s)
The risk owner determines which risks require mitigation and contingency plans and generates the risk mitigation and contingency strategies and performs a cost benefit analysis of the proposed strategies. The risk owner is responsible for monitoring and controlling and updating the status of the risk throughout the project lifecycle. The risk owner can be any member of the project team.
TBD Other Key
Stakeholders

4 2.3 RISK IDENTIFICATION
Risk identification will involve the project team, appropriate stakeholders, and will include an evaluation of environmental factors, organizational culture and the project management plan including the project scope, schedule, cost, or quality. Careful attention will be given to the project deliverables, assumptions, constraints, work breakdown structure, cost/effort estimates, resource plan, and other key project documents.
2.3.1 Methods for Risk Identification
The following methods that will be used to assist in the identification of risks associated with the CCB AWFP project include but are not limited to collaborative efforts between the City and PERC Water:
• Brainstorming
• Interviewing
• SWOT (Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities and Threats) • Diagramming
A Risk Register Log will be generated and updated as needed and will be stored electronically in the project SharePoint site accessible to the City of Pismo Beach throughout the life of the project. A sample Risk Register Log is shown below as well as in the Attachments.
2.4 RISK ANALYSIS
All risks identified will be assessed to identify the range of possible project outcomes. Risks will be prioritized by their level of importance.
2.4.1 Qualitative Risk Analysis
The probability and impact of occurrence for each identified risk will be assessed by the DB Project Manager, with input from the project team considering the risk probability and impact to determine the risk category (see below).

6 Risk Guidance
Risks that fall within the RED and YELLOW zones will have a risk response plan which may include both a risk response strategy and a risk contingency plan.
2.4.2 Quantitative Risk Analysis
Analysis of risk events that have been prioritized using the qualitative risk analysis process and their effect on project activities will be estimated, then a numerical rating is applied to each risk based on quantitative analysis and then documented in this section of the risk management plan.
2.5 RISK RESPONSE PLANNING
Each major risk (those falling in the red & yellow zones) will be assigned to a risk owner for monitoring and controlling purposes to ensure that the risk as actively monitored and addressed.
For each major risk, one of the following approaches will be selected to address it:
• Avoid – Eliminate the threat or condition or to protect the project objectives from its impact by eliminating the cause
• Mitigate – Identify ways to reduce the probability or the impact of the risk • Accept – Nothing will be done
• Contingency –Define actions to be taken in response to risks • Transfer – Shift the consequence of a risk to a third party together with ownership of the response by making another party responsible for the risk (buy insurance, outsourcing, etc.) 0 1 2 3

7 For each risk that will be mitigated, the project team will identify ways to prevent the risk from occurring or reduce its impact or probability of occurring. This may include prototyping, adding tasks to the project schedule, adding resources, etc. Any secondary risks that result from risk mitigation response will be documented and follow the risk management protocol as the primary risks.
For each major risk that is to be mitigated or that is accepted, a course of action will be outlined if the risk does materialize to minimize its impact.
2.6 RISK MONITORING, CONTROLLING AND REPORTING
The level of risk on a project will be tracked, monitored and controlled and reported throughout the project lifecycle. The method of monitoring and controlling will be facilitated using the Risk Register as well as PERC Water’s CORE Compliance Platform software (see below) as part of the organization’s quality management system.
Risks will be assigned by a risk owner(s) who will track, monitor and control and report on the status and effectiveness of each risk response action to the Project Manager and Risk Management Team on a biweekly basis.
PERC Water will maintain the Risk Register Log, led by the Risk Manager / DB PM or IPT and will be reported to the City as a component of the project status reporting process for this project on a monthly basis or more frequently if so desired by the City.
All project change requests will be analyzed for their possible impact to the project risks. As risk events occur, the Risk Register Log will be re-prioritized via internal reviews.
The Risk Manager / DB PM will:
▪ Review, reevaluate, and modify the probability and impact for each risk item at a minimum on a biweekly basis
▪ Analyze any new risks that are identified and add these items to the Risk Register. ▪ Monitor and control risks that have been identified
▪ Review and update the top priority risk list
▪ Escalate issues/problems to the senior management team and City
Preliminary Risk Management Plan August 2026
Central Coast Blue AWPF
8 The Risk Owner will:
▪ Help develop the risk response and risk trigger and carry out the execution of the risk response, if a risk event occurs.
▪ Participate in the review, re-evaluation, and modification of the probability and impact for each risk item on a weekly basis.
▪ Identify and participate in the analysis of any new risks that occur. ▪ Escalate issues/problems to the DB PM that,
o Significantly impact the projects triple constraint or trigger another risk event to occur. o Require action prior to the next weekly review
o Risk strategy is not effective or productive, causing the need to execute the contingency plan.
Risk activities will be recorded in PERC Water’s CORE Compliance Platform under:
02 Forms & Autoform Records\Change Management, Objectives, Risks & Opportunities\Risk Register
A detailed summary of the risk inputs will be documented and detailed in the CORE Compliance Platform Risk Register section (see Attachments) that include:

10 4. CLOSING A RISK
A risk will be considered closed when it meets the following criteria:
• The risk is converted to an issue, transitioning from the risk register to an active issue • The probability is reduced to minimal/zero
• The risk ‘window’ has lapsed and potential events/outcomes are impossible • Complete mitigation of the risk with actions implemented and validated • Upon final project closeout where the risk has been reviewed and archived.
The DB Project Manager will have the authority to close a risk pending confirmation from the PERC Water management team.
Examples of closing a risk include but are not limited to:
• Risk is no longer valid
• Risk Event has occurred
• Risk is no longer considered a risk
• Risk closure at the direction of the Project Manager

APPENDIXE LIFE CYCLE COST ANALYSIS EVALUATION CRITERIA
LIFE CYCLE COST ANALYSIS EVALUATION CRITERIA
SCORING FRAMEWORK
This appendix presents PERC Water's standardized Evaluation Criteria Scoring Framework the weighted, multi-criteria methodology referenced in Section 1.7 and applied in Table 1.7-1. This framework provides a consistent basis for evaluating and comparing competing equipment options across PERC's projects, so that equipment selections reflect true long-term best value rather than lowest first cost alone. 1 Evaluation Methodology
PERC's evaluation process follows these steps:
» Establish evaluation criteria relevant to the specific procurement, and assign each criterion a relative weight reflecting its importance to the project. Higher weights indicate criteria of greater importance.
» Rate each proposal or option against every criterion using a defined numeric scoring scale, with the higher score representing the more competitive or favorable response. The scale is defined at the start of the evaluation and applied consistently across all options and criteria. » Multiply each criterion's score by its assigned weight to calculate a weighted score for that criterion. » Sum the weighted scores across all criteria to determine each option's total score. » Rank the options by total score. The option with the highest total score is generally the top-ranked or recommended option, confirmed against the Project's stated priorities before finalizing a recommendation.
» Certain criteria — such as bonding, licensing, insurance, or other mandatory contractual terms — are evaluated on a pass/fail basis rather than numerically weighted. » Document the rationale behind each score in narrative form so that reviewers and stakeholders can understand why one option scored higher or lower than another on a given criterion. 2 Evaluation Criteria Scoring Table (Template)
Table A-1 provides the full scoring template underlying the evaluation summarized in Table 1.7-1. Weight values, the scoring scale, and the number of options compared are defined for each specific equipment evaluation.

Total Weighted Score
Weighted Score = Score × Weight for each criterion; Total Weighted Score = sum of all weighted scores for that option. Table 1.7-1 in Section 1.7 presents a condensed, project-specific application of this framework, grouping certain related criteria (for example, capital and O&M cost) into combined rows for presentation.
3 Evaluation Criteria Definitions
The definitions below describe the intent of each criterion and the type of information PERC's evaluation team considers when assigning a score.
Performance The extent to which the proposed equipment or solution meets the technical performance requirements defined in the Project specifications, including capacity, operating range, output quality, and process reliability under both average and peak operating conditions.
Reference / Track
Record
A review of the vendor's history of similar installations or engagements, including comparable system scale, number of comparable units in service, and current reference contact information. Responsive references rate their overall experience on a defined scale, and the scores are averaged to determine the criterion score.
Maintenance &
Support Contract
The comprehensiveness and value of the vendor's proposed maintenance, service, and repair program, including contract duration and renewal options, scope of covered services (routine maintenance, repairs, parts, labor, and travel), guaranteed on-site response times, and a documented escalation procedure for alarms or equipment malfunctions.
Capital (Initial) Cost The total proposed fixed price to furnish, deliver, and, where applicable, install the complete system, including engineering or design services, equipment, installation/commissioning support, and applicable taxes.
Operations &
Maintenance (O&M)
Cost
The projected annual cost to operate and maintain the equipment, including energy consumption, consumables, and routine replacement parts, evaluated at the anticipated operating conditions.
Life-Cycle Cost A combined evaluation of capital cost and O&M costs over a defined evaluation period, typically discounted to present value using an assumed interest or escalation rate, to allow a consistent comparison of total cost of ownership between options.
Installation
Requirements
The physical, electrical, control-system, and automation requirements associated with installing and operating the equipment, including footprint and height, structural or foundation needs, level of automation provided, and anticipated operating labor. Options requiring minimal field-installation effort and minimal manual, hands-on operation are scored more favorably.
Scope of Supply The completeness of the proposal relative to the equipment and services specified, including the quality, durability, and suitability of materials of construction for the intended application. This criterion also weighs items offered beyond the minimum specification against any items omitted from the required scope.
Delivery Schedule The proposed timeline for submittals, fabrication, delivery, and commissioning of the equipment, evaluated against the Project's required schedule and construction sequencing needs.
Completeness of
Response
Whether the proposal includes all information requested in the solicitation, allowing the evaluation team to score the proposal as submitted without needing to make inferences or follow up for missing information.
Compliance /
Bonding (Pass-Fail)
Confirmation that the vendor agrees to required contractual terms, such as performance bonding, insurance, or licensing. This criterion is scored as a pass/fail (Yes/No) determination rather than a weighted numeric score, since it reflects a minimum qualification rather than a differentiator. 4 Using This Framework
PERC applies this framework consistently across equipment selections on this Project. Completed scoring tables and the supporting rationale behind each score are retained as part of PERC's project record and are available for Owner review upon request.
APPENDIXF KEY PERSONNEL RESUME
[email protected] ▪ 805.895.3956
Tim Nicely PG, CHG
Senior Managing Hydrogeologist
Tim has 27 years of experience working with clients throughout California to manage valuable water resources. His expertise includes all aspects of hydrogeology and geology, specifically related to groundwater supply, groundwater basin analysis, and water resource management. Tim’s experience includes assessing seawater intrusion, desalination intake options, and surface water/groundwater studies; designing and overseeing construction of wellfields and monitoring wells; designing pumping tests and analyzing data; and evaluating aquifer recharge options.
REPRESENTATIVE PROJECTS
Indirect Potable Reuse Evaluation, City of Morro Bay. Tim conducted a series of aquifer characterization and basin-wide investigations to evaluate alternatives to the City’s brine disposal pipeline for the re-use of recycled water to augment the City’s water resource. Potential alternatives included: recharging into upstream infiltration basins; delivering treated effluent to growers in the Morro or Chorro valleys in exchange for reduced groundwater pumping or for direct sale; injection and recovery at City wells; and injection into a seawater intrusion barrier. The project is ongoing with implementation of an Indirect Potable Reuse (IPR) project using highly treated wastewater from the City of Morro Bay’s forthcoming reclamation facility for injection into the City’s groundwater basin. GSI is conducting a complete hydrogeological analysis, including groundwater modeling to evaluate project feasibility and is providing hydrogeologic services for the evaluation of location, design, and installation of several IPR injection wells. Work includes securing permits, including the Groundwater Replenishment Reuse Project (GRRP) permit with California’s RWQCB and Division of Drinking Water. The program will result in a robust, reliable supply of water for the City.
Santa Maria Groundwater Basin Investigation, San Luis Obispo County Flood Control and Water Conservation District. Tim performed a series of eight multiple-well pumping tests throughout the Northern Cities and Nipomo Mesa areas of southern San Luis Obispo County for the Santa Maria Groundwater Basin (SMGB) characterization effort, which provided a foundation for future development of a Salt and Nutrient Management Plan and a groundwater model. The study was an important component of the Regional Integrated Regional Water Management (IRWM) Plan Update. The SMGB includes the Northern Cities and Nipomo Mesa Management Areas, and a limited assessment of the Santa Maria Valley Area to demonstrate its hydrogeologic relationships with the Nipomo Mesa.
Aquifer Storage and Recovery Evaluation, City of Ventura. Tim evaluated six injection/extraction sites to meet the City’s goal of achieving 4,000 AFY of storage and recovery capacity. Four publicly owned sites were identified in the feasibility study for placement of wells. Criteria for feasibility included: (1) hydrogeologic suitability (potential well yield, specific capacity, well depth, target injection zone, water levels, and anticipated aquifer water quality at the potential well sites); (2) potential well interference and impact of injection/extraction on groundwater levels in surrounding wells based on groundwater modeling results; (3) proximity to hazardous waste/environmental remediation sites; and (4) physical site characteristics, such as

Adjudicated Groundwater Basin Annual Report Preparation, Northern Cities Management Area Technical Group, Santa Maria Groundwater Basin, San Luis Obispo County. Tim served as the technical lead for the preparation and submittal of the court-mandated annual reports for the Northern Cities Management Area (composed of the Cities of Pismo Beach, Arroyo Grande, and Grover Beach, and the Oceano Community Services District [CSD]). Tim managed tasks, including sampling and monitoring of key sentry wells in the Northern Cities area to assess potential seawater intrusion and provided technical support and prepared quarterly and annual reports required by the Superior Court of California as a result of the Santa Maria Basin litigation solution.
Aquifer Storage and Recovery Pilot Project, East Bay Municipal Utility District, Alameda County. Tim performed field activities associated with the installation and testing of a large-diameter pilot ASR well and three related monitoring wells to determine the feasibility of ASR. Tim performed contractor observation of drilling, development, and pumping and injection cycles; lithologic logging; water sample collection and interpretation; analysis of lithologic and water quality data for well design; analysis of aquifer test data; and report preparation.
Desalination Subsurface Intake and Indirect Potable Reuse Feasibility Study, City of Santa Barbara, Santa Barbara County. Tim was a key member of the project team that conducted a study to evaluate the feasibility of several subsurface intake technologies that could be alternatives to the City’s existing direct ocean intake for a desalination plant. Alternatives being evaluated included conventional wells, slant wells, collector wells, beach infiltration galleries, seawater infiltration galleries, and directionally drilled wells (HDD). The study estimated yield, spacing, number of facilities required, and evaluated water quality and potential impacts to surface water.
Municipal and Agricultural Well Installation Clients throughout San Luis Obispo, Ventura, Monterey and Los Angeles Counties. Tim has designed, created plans and specifications, managed staff and himself performed field observation related to dozens of small- and large-diameter water supply wells throughout California. The well installation projects have included contractor observation of drilling, lithologic sample collection and logging, evaluation of downhole geophysical data, depth-specific zone water quality testing step and constant rate flow testing, zone well sampling, well design, and installation for wells as deep as 1,000 feet. All work has been performed in accordance with well specifications, AWWA and State of California standards.
Aquifer Characterization and Hydrogeologic Assessment, Cold Canyon Landfill, San Luis Obispo County. Tim designed and performed several multi-well aquifer tests to define the hydrogeology of the area beneath the landfill, the pumping capacity of the existing wells at the landfill, their current use, the effects of increased use of groundwater related to the proposed expansion of the landfill, and interference effects from adjacent wells.
Aquifer Characterization and Safe Yield Analysis, Aera Energy, Pismo Beach, San Luis Obispo County. Tim conducted a groundwater basin safe yield study of an unnamed groundwater basin as part of a Supplemental Environmental Impact Report. The project included compilation of data from water and oil wells throughout the basin, preparation of geologic and hydrogeologic cross sections, groundwater level and storage volume analysis, and development of a hydrologic budget and safe yield for the basin.
Wastewater Treatment Facility Discharge Study, Nipomo Community Services District, San Luis Obispo County.
Tim coordinated and performed all field activities related to the determination of saturated hydraulic conductivities, and groundwater mounding issues related to the expansion of a water treatment facility. Tim compiled all data for construction of a numerical groundwater model.
Wastewater Disposal Feasibility Study, Price Canyon Oil Field, San Luis Obispo County. Tim performed all project planning and field work related to the exploration and assessment of two areas for the proposed disposal of treated wastewater permeate in San Luis Obispo County

OWNER and its officers, elected officials, employees, and agents shall continue as additional insureds under such policies.
3. Primary/noncontributing. Coverage provided by DESIGN-BUILDER shall be primary and any insurance or self-insurance procured or maintained by OWNER shall not be required to contribute with it. The limits of insurance required herein may be satisfied by a combination of primary and umbrella or excess insurance. Any umbrella or excess insurance shall contain or be endorsed to contain a provision that such coverage shall also apply on a primary and non- contributory basis for the benefit of OWNER before OWNER’s own insurance or self-insurance shall be called upon to protect it as a named insured.
4. OWNER’s rights of enforcement. In the event any policy of insurance required under this AGREEMENT does not comply with these requirements or is canceled and not replaced, OWNER has the right but not the duty to obtain the insurance it deems necessary and any premium paid by OWNER will be promptly reimbursed by DESIGN-BUILDER or OWNER will withhold amounts sufficient to pay premium from DESIGN-BUILDER payments. In the alternative, OWNER may terminate this AGREEMENT.
5. Acceptable insurers. All insurance policies shall be issued by an insurance company currently authorized by the Insurance Commissioner to transact business of insurance or is on the List of Approved Surplus Line Insurers in the State of California, with an assigned policyholders’ Rating of A- (or higher) and Financial Size Category Class VII (or larger) in accordance with the latest edition of Best’s Key Rating Guide, unless otherwise approved by OWNER’s Risk Manager.
6. Waiver of subrogation. All insurance coverage maintained or procured pursuant to this agreement shall be endorsed to waive subrogation against OWNER, its elected or appointed officers, agents, officials, employees, and volunteers or shall specifically allow DESIGN- BUILDER or others providing insurance evidence in compliance with these specifications to waive their right of recovery prior to a loss. DESIGN-BUILDER hereby waives its own right of recovery against OWNER, and shall require similar written express waivers and insurance clauses from each of its subconsultants.
7. Enforcement of contract provisions (non-estoppel). DESIGN-BUILDER acknowledges and agrees that any actual or alleged failure on the part of OWNER to inform DESIGN-BUILDER of non-compliance with any requirement imposes no additional obligations on OWNER nor does it waive any rights hereunder.
8. Requirements not limiting. Requirements of specific coverage features or limits contained in this Section are not intended as a limitation on coverage, limits or other requirements, or a waiver of any coverage normally provided by any insurance. Specific reference to a given coverage feature is for purposes of clarification only as it pertains to a given issue and is not intended by any party or insured to be all inclusive, or to the exclusion of other coverage, or a waiver of any type. If DESIGN-BUILDER maintains higher limits than the minimums shown above, OWNER requires and shall be entitled to coverage for the higher limits maintained by DESIGN-BUILDER. Any available insurance proceeds in excess of the specified minimum limits of insurance and coverage shall be available to OWNER.
9. Notice of cancellation. DESIGN-BUILDER agrees to oblige its insurance agent or broker and insurers to provide to OWNER with a thirty (30) day notice of cancellation (except for nonpayment, for which a ten (10) day notice is required) or nonrenewal of coverage for each required coverage. In the event DESIGN-BUILDER’s policy of insurance cannot be endorsed to provide this notice of cancellation, CONTACTOR shall provide OWNER notice of such cancellation, in writing, not later than 24 hours following the effective time of such cancellation.
10. Additional insured status. General liability and automobile insurance policies shall provide or be endorsed to provide that OWNER and its officers, officials, employees, agents, and volunteers shall be additional insureds under such policies. This provision shall also apply to any excess/umbrella liability policies. Each such insurance policy shall contain language substantially similar to the following clause:
11. "The City of Pismo Beach, its elected and appointed officials, officers, employees and agents are named as additional insureds as respects operations of the named insured performed under contract with the City of Pismo Beach."
11. Prohibition of undisclosed coverage limitations. None of the coverages required herein will be in compliance with these requirements if they include any limiting endorsement of any kind that has not been first submitted to OWNER and approved of in writing by OWNER’s Risk Manager or City Attorney.
12. Separation of insureds. A severability of interests provision must apply for all additional insureds ensuring that DESIGN-BUILDER’s insurance shall apply separately to each insured against whom claim is made or suit is brought, except with respect to the insurer’s limits of liability. The policy(ies) shall not contain any cross-liability exclusions.
13. Pass-through clause. DESIGN-BUILDER agrees to ensure that its subconsultants, subcontractors, and any other party providing any work on the Project under the direction of DESIGN-BUILDER, provide the same minimum primary insurance coverage and endorsements required of DESIGN-BUILDER in section 1 above, and also provide a minimum Two Million Dollar ($2,000,000.00) excess liability policy. DESIGN-BUILDER agrees to monitor and review all such coverage and assumes all responsibility for ensuring that such coverage is provided in conformity with the requirements of this section. DESIGN-BUILDER agrees that upon request, all agreements with consultants, subcontractors, and others engaged in performing work on the Project will be submitted to OWNER for review.
14. OWNER’s right to revise requirements. OWNER reserves the right at any time during the term of the AGREEMENT to change the amounts and types of insurance required by giving DESIGN-BUILDER a ninety (90) day advance written notice of such change. If such change results in substantial additional cost to DESIGN-BUILDER, OWNER and DESIGN-BUILDER may renegotiate DESIGN-BUILDER’s compensation.
15. Self-insured retentions. Any deductibles or self-insured retention must be declared to and approved by OWNER. At the option of OWNER, either the insurer shall reduce or eliminate such deductibles or self-insured retention as respects OWNER, its elected and appointed officials, employees and volunteers, or DESIGN-BUILDER shall procure a bond guaranteeing payment of losses and related investigations, claim administration and defense expenses. Self- insurance will not be considered to comply with this paragraph unless approved by OWNER.
16. Timely notice of claims. DESIGN-BUILDER shall give OWNER prompt and timely notice of claims made or suits instituted that arise out of or result from DESIGN-BUILDER’s performance under the Project, and that involve or may involve coverage under any of the required liability policies.
17. Additional insurance. DESIGN-BUILDER shall also procure and maintain, at its own cost and expense, any additional kinds of insurance, which in its own judgment may be necessary for its proper protection and prosecution of the Project.
Exhibit I – Performance Guarantee Criteria
Performance Guarantees
This exhibit establishes the minimum performance requirements that the Design‑Builder (DB) Team shall meet to demonstrate compliance with the Project objectives and Design Criteria Report (DCR). The Performance Guarantees define the required standards for chemical and energy consumption, water quality, and overall facility performance that must be achieved during the Performance Guarantee Period as a condition of Substantial Completion.
Chemicals and Energy Performance [including attachment pages I-1 and I-2 The DB Team shall demonstrate compliance with the Performance Guarantees during the Performance Guarantee Period through two distinct components: (1) chemical and energy consumption, which shall be evaluated over a continuous five (5)-day demonstration period, and (2) finished water quality, which shall be met at all times. The AWPF shall be operated under the operating conditions, influent characteristics, and process criteria defined in the Design Criteria Report (DCR) throughout the Performance Guarantee Period.
The chemical and energy performance metrics shall be measured under steady-state operations consistent with the DCR requirements. Finished water quality shall be continuously maintained on a 24-hour-per-day, 7- day-per-week basis and shall comply with all DCR-defined criteria and applicable regulatory requirements for product water.

Guaranteed Maximum Electricity Utilization is the maximum amount of electricity stated in kilo-watt-hours that are generated by the Plant per 1,000 gallons of Product Water produced.
Guaranteed Maximum Electricity Demand is the maximum instantaneous electricity demand in kilowatts.
Notes:
1. All of the above assumes that feed water and other contractual parameters with which the DB Team has used to develop the design, are all in compliance with the DCR requirements.
2. Acceptance of the DB Teams performance criteria will be dependent on 5 straight days at 0.5 MGD of not exceeding any of the chemical doses or electrical requirements as stated above by the DB Teams.
Achievement of Substantial Completion will be contingent of the success of this achieving these performance guarantees.
Water Performance
This section sets forth the requirements for certain Performance Guarantees for the Project including:
• Water Treatment Guarantee (i.e., Applicable Law and Water Quality Standards); • Water Delivery Guarantee
These Performance Guarantees are described in the DCR, section 3.2. The Water Treatment Guarantee, Water Delivery Guarantee, and Production Efficiency Guarantee shall be predicated on the DCR, section 3.1 Source Water Quality.
Water Treatment Guarantee
Product Water
The DB Team shall design and construct the Facility in such a manner that the Product Water produced and delivered satisfies the Water Treatment Guarantee. To conform with the Water Treatment Guarantee, Product Water shall comply with:
• All Applicable Law, including, but not limited to all mandatory drinking water standards as identified in Title 22 of the California Code of Regulations; and put forth by the California Division of Drinking Water (DDW) and listed in the DCR, section 3.2;
• The Service Contract and the Enhanced Water Quality Standards in DCR, Section 3. All mandatory federal drinking water regulations (e.g., primary maximum contaminant levels (MCLs) promulgated by United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)); and • All Secondary Standards pursuant to the National Secondary Drinking Water Regulations (NSDWRs).
Sourced Water Quality and Quantity
The Water Delivery Guarantee shall be predicated on the sourced water supply detailed in the DCR, Section
3.1. Type text hereN/A
Water Volume Delivery Guarantee
The DB Team will guarantee Water Delivery volumes listed in the DCR, Section 2.3.
Note: The Water Delivery value of 500 AFY is the design and expected delivery to the injection well. Provided the facility and injection well are correctly designed and constructed to yield that capacity, but the actual subsurface geologic conditions will not accept injection at that capacity, based on substantial evidence to be provided by the DB Team, the specified water delivery performance standard will be lowered to the actual injection well capacity.

6.61 Exhibit J – Conditions Required by Funding Sources
Exhibit J1: USBR Funding Requirements
This document presents contract requirements related to the City of Pismo Beach’s United States Bureau of Reclamation (USBR) Title XVI WaterSMART project funding.
I. BUY AMERICA DOMESTIC PROCUREMENT PREFERENCE [Public Law 117-58, Sec. 70911-70917 of IIJA]
As required by Section 70914 of the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law (also known as the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act), P.L. 117-58, on or after May 14, 2022, none of the funds under a federal award that are part of Federal financial assistance program for infrastructure may be obligated for a project unless all of the iron, steel, manufactured products, and construction materials used in the project are produced in the United States, unless subject to an approved waiver. The requirements of this section must be included in all subawards, including all contracts and purchase orders for work or products under this program. DB Teams of an award of Federal financial assistance are hereby notified that none of the funds provided under this award may be used for a project for infrastructure unless:
1. All iron and steel used in the project are produced in the United States--this means all manufacturing processes, from the initial melting stage through the application of coatings, occurred in the United States;
2. All manufactured products used in the project are produced in the United States—this means the manufactured product was manufactured in the United States; and the cost of the components of the manufactured product that are mined, produced, or manufactured in the United States is greater than 55 percent of the total cost of all components of the manufactured product, unless another standard for determining the minimum amount of domestic content of the manufactured product has been established under applicable law or regulation; and
3. All construction materials are manufactured in the United States—this means that all manufacturing processes for the construction material occurred in the United States. The Buy America preference only applies to articles, materials, and supplies that are consumed in, incorporated into, or affixed to an infrastructure project. As such, it does not apply to tools, equipment, and supplies, such as temporary scaffolding, brought to the construction site and removed at or before the completion of the infrastructure project. Nor does a Buy America preference apply to equipment and furnishings, such as movable chairs, desks, and portable computer equipment, that are used at or within the finished infrastructure project, but are not an integral part of the structure or permanently affixed to the infrastructure project.
For further information on the Buy America preference, please visit www.doi.gov/grants/BuyAmerica . Additional information can also be found at the White House Made in America Office website:
www.whitehouse.gov/omb/management/made-in-america/ .
Buy America Domestic Procurement Preference Waivers
When necessary, the DB Team may apply for, and the Department of the Interior (DOI) may grant, a waiver from these requirements, subject to review by the Made in America Office. The DOI may waive the application of the domestic content procurement preference in any case in which it is determined that one of the below circumstances applies:
1. Non-availability Waiver: the types of iron, steel, manufactured products, or construction materials are not produced in the United States in sufficient and reasonably available quantities or of a satisfactory quality;
2. Unreasonable Cost Waiver: the inclusion of iron, steel, manufactured products, or construction materials produced in the United States will increase the cost of the overall project by more than 25 percent; or
3. Public Interest Waiver: applying the domestic content procurement preference would be inconsistent with the public interest.
There may be instances where an award qualifies, in whole or in part, for an existing DOI general applicability waiver as described at: www.doi.gov/grants/BuyAmerica/GeneralApplicabilityWaivers . If the specific financial assistance agreement, infrastructure project, or non-domestic materials meets the criteria of an existing general applicability waiver within the limitations defined within the waiver, the recipient is not required to request a separate waiver for non-domestic materials.
If a general applicability waiver does not already apply, and a recipient believes that one of the above circumstances applies to an award, a request to waive the application of the domestic content procurement preference may be submitted to the financial assistance awarding officer in writing. Waiver requests shall include the below information. The waiver shall not include any Privacy Act information, sensitive data, or proprietary information within their waiver request. Waiver requests will be posted to www.doi.gov/grants/buyamerica and are subject to public comment periods of no less than 15 days.

§200.327 Contract provisions.
Appendix II to Part 200—Contract Provisions for Non-Federal Entity Contracts Under Federal Awards In addition to other provisions required by the Federal agency or non-Federal entity, all contracts made by the non-Federal entity under the Federal award must contain provisions covering the following, as applicable. (A) Contracts for more than the simplified acquisition threshold, which is the inflation adjusted amount determined by the Civilian Agency Acquisition Council and the Defense Acquisition Regulations Council (Councils) as authorized by 41 U.S.C. 1908, must address administrative, contractual, or legal remedies in instances where contractors violate or breach contract terms, and provide for such sanctions and penalties as appropriate.
(B) All contracts in excess of $10,000 must address termination for cause and for convenience by the non- Federal entity including the manner by which it will be effected and the basis for settlement. (C) Equal Employment Opportunity. Except as otherwise provided under 41 CFR Part 60, all contracts that meet the definition of “federally assisted construction contract” in 41 CFR Part 60-1.3 must include the equal opportunity clause provided under 41 CFR 60-1.4(b), in accordance with Executive Order 11246, “Equal Employment Opportunity” (30 FR 12319, 12935, 3 CFR Part, 1964-1965 Comp., p. 339), as amended by Executive Order 11375, “Amending Executive Order 11246 Relating to Equal Employment Opportunity,” and implementing regulations at 41 CFR part 60, “Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs, Equal Employment Opportunity, Department of Labor.”
(D) Davis-Bacon Act, as amended (40 U.S.C. 3141-3148). When required by Federal program legislation, all prime construction contracts in excess of $2,000 awarded by non-Federal entities must include a provision for compliance with the Davis-Bacon Act (40 U.S.C. 3141-3144, and 3146-3148) as supplemented by Department of Labor regulations (29 CFR Part 5, “Labor Standards Provisions Applicable to Contracts Covering Federally Financed and Assisted Construction”). In accordance with the statute, contractors must be required to pay wages to laborers and mechanics at a rate not less than the prevailing wages specified in a wage determination made by the Secretary of Labor. In addition, contractors must be required to pay wages not less than once a week. The non-Federal entity must place a copy of the current prevailing wage determination issued by the Department of Labor in each solicitation. The decision to award a contract or subcontract must be conditioned upon the acceptance of the wage determination. The non-Federal entity must report all suspected or reported violations to the Federal awarding agency. The contracts must also include a provision for compliance with the Copeland “Anti-Kickback” Act (40 U.S.C. 3145), as supplemented by Department of Labor regulations (29 CFR Part 3, “Contractors and Subcontractors on Public Building or Public Work Financed in Whole or in Part by Loans or Grants from the United States”). The Act provides that each contractor or subrecipient must be prohibited from inducing, by any means, any person employed in the construction, completion, or repair of public work, to give up any part of the compensation to which he or she is otherwise entitled. The non-Federal entity must report all suspected or reported violations to the Federal awarding agency.
(E) Contract Work Hours and Safety Standards Act (40 U.S.C. 3701-3708). Where applicable, all contracts awarded by the non-Federal entity in excess of $100,000 that involve the employment of mechanics or laborers must include a provision for compliance with 40 U.S.C. 3702 and 3704, as supplemented by Department of Labor regulations (29 CFR Part 5). Under 40 U.S.C. 3702 of the Act, each contractor must be required to compute the wages of every mechanic and laborer on the basis of a standard work week of 40 hours. Work in excess of the standard work week is permissible provided that the worker is compensated at a rate of not less than one and a half times the basic rate of pay for all hours worked in excess of 40 hours in the work week. The requirements of 40 U.S.C. 3704 are applicable to construction work and provide that no laborer or mechanic must be required to work in surroundings or under working conditions which are unsanitary, hazardous or
dangerous. These requirements do not apply to the purchases of supplies or materials or articles ordinarily available on the open market, or contracts for transportation or transmission of intelligence. (F) Rights to Inventions Made Under a Contract or Agreement. If the Federal award meets the definition of “funding agreement” under 37 CFR § 401.2 (a) and the recipient or subrecipient wishes to enter into a contract with a small business firm or nonprofit organization regarding the substitution of parties, assignment or performance of experimental, developmental, or research work under that “funding agreement,” the recipient or subrecipient must comply with the requirements of 37 CFR Part 401, “Rights to Inventions Made by Nonprofit Organizations and Small Business Firms Under Government Grants, Contracts and Cooperative Agreements,” and any implementing regulations issued by the awarding agency. (G) Clean Air Act (42 U.S.C. 7401-7671q.) and the Federal Water Pollution Control Act (33 U.S.C. 1251-1387), as amended—Contracts and subgrants of amounts in excess of $150,000 must contain a provision that requires the non-Federal award to agree to comply with all applicable standards, orders or regulations issued pursuant to the Clean Air Act (42 U.S.C. 7401-7671q) and the Federal Water Pollution Control Act as amended (33 U.S.C. 1251-1387). Violations must be reported to the Federal awarding agency and the Regional Office of the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
(H) Debarment and Suspension (Executive Orders 12549 and 12689)—A contract award (see 2 CFR 180.220) must not be made to parties listed on the governmentwide exclusions in the System for Award Management (SAM), in accordance with the OMB guidelines at 2 CFR 180 that implement Executive Orders 12549 (3 CFR part 1986 Comp., p. 189) and 12689 (3 CFR part 1989 Comp., p. 235), “Debarment and Suspension.” SAM Exclusions contains the names of parties debarred, suspended, or otherwise excluded by agencies, as well as parties declared ineligible under statutory or regulatory authority other than Executive Order 12549. (I) Byrd Anti-Lobbying Amendment (31 U.S.C. 1352)—Contractors that apply or bid for an award exceeding $100,000 must file the required certification. Each tier certifies to the tier above that it will not and has not used Federal appropriated funds to pay any person or organization for influencing or attempting to influence an officer or employee of any agency, a member of Congress, officer or employee of Congress, or an employee of a member of Congress in connection with obtaining any Federal contract, grant or any other award covered by 31 U.S.C. 1352. Each tier must also disclose any lobbying with non-Federal funds that takes place in connection with obtaining any Federal award. Such disclosures are forwarded from tier to tier up to the non- Federal award.

On March 4, 2022, Governor Gavin Newsom issued Executive Order N-6-22 (the EO) regarding Economic Sanctions against Russia and Russian entities and individuals. “Economic Sanctions” refers to sanctions imposed by the U.S. government in response to Russia’s actions in Ukraine, as well as any sanctions imposed under state law.

The State Water Board shall provide Recipient advance written notice of such termination, allowing Recipient at least 30 calendar days to provide a written response. Termination shall be at the sole discretion of the State Water Board.

Exhibit J3: Disadvantaged Business Enterprise Guidelines
The United States Environmental Protection Agency’s (U.S. EPA) Disadvantaged Business Enterprise (DBE) requirements will apply to the Central Coast Blue Project, which is funded in part from the State Water Resources Control Board. The City anticipates securing SWRCB Clean Water State Revolving Fund (CWSRF) funding for the project and the SWRCB DBE requirements shall apply to the DB Team.
These Guidelines are intended to assist funding recipients and prime contractors that are subject to the DBE requirements in complying with the U.S. EPA’s requirements and are intended to reflect current federal requirements. The requirements are set forth in 40 C.F.R part 33, but were modified by a March 17, 2025 U.S. EPA memorandum titled “Class Exception from Requirements under 40 CFR Part 33 and Class Waiver from EPA Order 5700.6 A2 CHG 2, Section 7.0.” If the federal guidance changes, the Deputy Director of the Division or designee may approve a process that differs from these Guidelines, as long as any applicable federal requirements are met.
Overview of the U.S. EPA’s DBE Requirements
The key functional components of the DBE Program are as follows:
DBE Certification
Six Good Faith Efforts
Contract Administration Requirements
DBE Reporting Requirements [suspended as of March 17, 2025]
In addition, Fair Share Objectives may apply to the extent required by U.S. EPA. [suspended as of March 17, 2025]
Disadvantaged Business Enterprises are:
Entities owned and/or controlled by socially and economically disadvantaged individuals as described by Title X of the Clean Air Act Amendments of 1990 (42 U.S.C. § 7601 see 40 C.F.R. § 33.203) (10% statute) or by Public Law 102-389 (42 U.S.C. § 4370d; see 40 C.F.R. § 33.202) (8% statute);
Minority Business Enterprise (MBE) - entities that are at least 51% owned and/or controlled by a socially and economically disadvantaged individual as described by Title X of the Clean Air Act Amendments of 1990 (42 U.S.C. § 7601; see 40 C.F.R. § 33.203), and Public Law 102-389 (42 U.S.C. § 4370d; see 40
C.F.R. § 33.202);
Women Business Enterprise (WBE) - entities that are at least 51% owned and/or controlled by women.
Certifying DBE Firms:
Under the DBE Program, entities can no longer self-certify, and contractors and sub- contractors must be certified at bid opening. Contractors and sub-contractors must provide to the SRF recipient proof of DBE certification. Certifications will be accepted from the following:
The Small Business Administration (SBA)
The Department of Transportation’s State implemented DBE Certification Program (with U.S. citizenship)
Tribal, State and Local governments in accordance with EPA’s 8% or 10% statutes Independent private organization certifications in accordance with EPA’s 8% or 10% statutes
If an entity holds one of these certifications, it is considered acceptable for establishing status under the DBE Program.
Six Good Faith Efforts (GFE)
The recipients and DB Team are required to comply and ensure that prime contractors comply with the GFE below to provide DBEs an opportunity to compete for financial assistance dollars.
The GFE requirements apply whenever procuring construction, equipment, services, and supplies.
1. Ensure DBEs are made aware of contracting opportunities to the fullest extent practicable through outreach and recruitment activities. For Tribal, State and Local Government recipients, this will include placing DBEs on solicitation lists and soliciting them whenever they are potential sources.
2. Make information on forthcoming opportunities available to DBEs, arrange time frames for contracts, and establish delivery schedules (where the requirements permit), in a way that encourages and facilitates participation by DBEs in the competitive process. This includes, whenever possible, posting solicitations for bids or proposals a minimum of 30 calendar days before the bid opening date*.
3. Consider in the contracting process whether firms competing for large contracts could subcontract with DBEs. For Indian Tribal, state, and local government recipients, this will include dividing total requirements when economically feasible into smaller tasks or quantities to permit maximum participation by DBEs in the competitive process.
4. Encourage contracting with a group of DBEs when a contract is too large for one firm to handle individually.
5. Use the services of the SBA and/or Minority Business Development Agency (MBDA) of the US Department of Commerce.
6. If the prime contractor awards subcontracts, require the prime contractor to take the steps in items (1) through (5) of this section.
Please Note: The recipient and prime contractor(s) must meet all solicitation requirements listed above.
*To ensure qualified DBEs are informed of the project, the recipient and prime contractor must circulate the advertisement for bids for each project by posting in a newspaper or on an established e-Procurement website such as Planet Bids ( www.planetbids.com) , DBE Good Faith ( www.dbegoodfaith.com) , or an equivalent website. The recipient is encouraged to advertise for a minimum of 30 days prior to the bid opening date.
Recipients must document that the bid was appropriately advertised. For newspapers, a clipping or copy of the advertisement as well as an affidavit or receipt from the newspaper showing the date(s) the advertisement ran are sufficient. For advertisements posted on an e- Procurement website, recipients should document an email confirmation or other receipt showing that the bid was posted as well as a saved screenshot or PDF showing the advertisement. If available, an active weblink/URL to the advertisement should also be documented.
The recipient shall review the bidder’s documents closely to determine that the GFE was performed prior
to bid or proposal opening date. The following situations and circumstances require action as indicated:
1. If the apparent successful low bidder was rejected, a complete explanation should be documented.
2. Failure of the apparent low bidder to perform the GFEs prior to bid opening constitutes a non-responsive bid. The construction contract may then be awarded to the next low, responsive, and responsible bidder that meets the requirements or the recipient may re-advertise the project.
3. If there is a bid dispute, all disputes shall be settled prior to submission of the Final Budget Approval Form.
Contract Administration Requirements
For agreements subject to DBE, the following requirements apply.
The recipient of CWSRF/DWSRF financing must require entities receiving funds to create and maintain a Bidders List if the recipient of the financing agreement is subject to, or chooses to follow, competitive bidding requirements.
The Bidders list must include all firms that bid or quote on prime contracts, or bid or quote on subcontracts, including both DBEs and non-DBEs.
Information retained on the Bidder’s List must include the following:
Entity’s name with point of contact;
Entity’s mailing address and telephone number;
The project description on which the entity bid or quoted and when; Amount of bid/quote; and
Entity’s status as a DBE or non-DBE.
The Bidders List must be kept until the recipient is no longer receiving funding under the agreement.
The recipient shall include the Bidders List as part of the Final Budget Approval Form.
A recipient must require its prime contractor to pay its subcontractor for satisfactory performance no more than 30 days from the prime contractor’s receipt of payment from the recipient.
A recipient must be notified in writing by its prime contractor prior to any termination of a DBE subcontractor by the prime contractor.
If a DBE subcontractor fails to complete work under the subcontract for any reason, the recipient must require the prime contractor to employ the six GFEs if soliciting a replacement subcontractor.
A recipient must require its prime contractor to employ the six GFEs even if the prime contractor is a certified DBE.
DBE Reporting Requirements [suspended as of March 17, 2025] DBE reporting requirements were suspended by the U.S. EPA’s March 17, 2025 memorandum.

Laborers or mechanics performing work in more than one classification may be compensated at the rate specified for each classification for the time actually worked therein: Provided, that the employer's payroll records accurately set forth the time spent in each classification in which work is performed.

(iv) If the contractor does not make payments to a trustee or other third person, the contractor may consider as part of the wages of any laborer or mechanic the amount of any costs reasonably anticipated in providing bona fide fringe benefits under a plan or program, Provided, That the Secretary of Labor has found, upon the written request of the contractor, that the applicable standards of the Davis-Bacon Act have been met. The Secretary of Labor may require the contractor to set aside in a separate account assets for the meeting of obligations under the plan or program.

Such records shall contain the name, address, and social security number of each such worker, his or her correct classification, hourly rates of wages paid (including rates of contributions or costs anticipated for bona fide fringe benefits or cash equivalents thereof of the types described in section 1(b)(2)(B) of the Davis-Bacon Act), daily and weekly number of hours worked, deductions made and actual wages paid. Whenever the Secretary of Labor has found under 29 CFR 5.5(a)(1)(iv) that the wages of any laborer or mechanic include the amount of any costs reasonably anticipated in providing benefits under a plan or program described in section 1(b)(2)(B) of the Davis-Bacon Act, the contractor shall maintain records which show that the commitment to provide such benefits is enforceable, that the plan or program is financially responsible, and that the plan or program has been communicated in writing to the laborers or mechanics affected, and records which show the costs anticipated or the actual cost incurred in providing such benefits. Contractors employing apprentices or trainees under approved programs shall maintain written evidence of the registration of apprenticeship programs and certification of trainee programs, the registration of the apprentices and trainees, and the ratios and wage rates prescribed in the applicable programs.
(ii) (A) The contractor shall submit weekly, for each week in which any contract work is performed, a copy of all payrolls to the sub recipient, that is, the entity that receives the sub-grant or loan from the State capitalization grant recipient. Such documentation shall be available on request of the State recipient or EPA. As to each payroll copy received, the sub recipient shall provide written confirmation in a form satisfactory to the State indicating whether or not the project is in compliance with the requirements of 29 CFR 5.5(a)(1) based on the most recent payroll copies for the specified week. The payrolls shall set out accurately and completely all of the information required to be maintained under 29 CFR 5.5(a)(3)(i), except that full social security numbers and home addresses shall not be included on the weekly payrolls. Instead the payrolls shall only need to include an individually identifying number for each employee (e.g., the last four digits of the employee's social security number). The required weekly payroll information may be submitted in any form desired. Optional Form WH-347 is available for this purpose from the Wage and Hour Division Web site at http://www.dol.gov/whd/forms/wh347instr.htm or its successor site.
The prime contractor is responsible for the submission of copies of payrolls by all subcontractors. Contractors and subcontractors shall maintain the full social security number and current address of each covered worker, and shall provide them upon request to the sub recipient(s) for transmission to the State or EPA if requested by EPA, the State, the contractor, or the Wage and Hour Division of the Department of Labor for purposes of an investigation or audit of compliance with prevailing wage requirements. It is not a violation of this section for a prime contractor to require a subcontractor to provide addresses and social security numbers to the prime contractor for its own records, without weekly submission to the sub recipient(s). (C) The weekly submission of a properly executed certification set forth on the reverse side of Optional Form WH-347 shall satisfy the requirement for submission of the “Statement of Compliance” required by paragraph (a)(3)(ii)(B) of this section. (D) The falsification of any of the above certifications may subject the contractor or subcontractor to civil or criminal prosecution under section 1001 of title 18 and section 231 of title 31 of the United States Code.
(iii) The contractor or subcontractor shall make the records required under paragraph (a)(3)(i) of this section available for inspection, copying, or transcription by authorized representatives of the State, EPA or the Department of Labor, and shall permit such representatives to interview employees during working hours on the job. If the contractor or subcontractor fails to submit the required records or to make them available, the Federal agency or State may, after written notice to the contractor, sponsor, applicant, or owner, take such action as may be necessary to cause the suspension of any further payment, advance, or guarantee of funds. Furthermore, failure to submit the required records upon request or to make such records available may be grounds for debarment action pursuant to 29 CFR 5.12.
(4) Apprentices and trainees.
(i) Apprentices. Apprentices will be permitted to work at less than the predetermined rate for the work they performed when they are employed pursuant to and individually registered in a bona fide apprenticeship program registered with the U.S. Department of Labor, Employment and Training Administration, Office of Apprenticeship Training, Employer and Labor Services, or with a State Apprenticeship Agency recognized by the Office, or if a person is employed in his or her first 90 days of probationary employment as an apprentice in such an apprenticeship program, who is not individually registered in the program, but who has been certified by the Office of Apprenticeship Training, Employer and Labor Services or a State Apprenticeship Agency (where appropriate) to be eligible for probationary employment as an apprentice. The allowable ratio of apprentices to journeymen on the job site in any craft classification shall not be greater than the ratio permitted to the contractor as to the entire work force under the registered program. Any worker listed on a payroll at an apprentice wage rate, who is not registered or otherwise employed as stated above, shall be paid not less than the applicable wage rate on the wage determination for the classification of work actually performed. In addition, any apprentice performing work on the job site in excess of the ratio permitted under the registered program shall be paid not less than the applicable wage rate on the wage determination for the work actually performed. Where a contractor is performing construction on a project in a locality other than that in which its program is registered, the ratios and wage rates (expressed in percentages of the journeyman's hourly rate) specified in the contractor's or subcontractors registered program shall be observed. Every apprentice must be paid at not less than the rate specified in the registered program for the apprentice's level of progress, expressed as a percentage of the journeymen hourly rate specified in the applicable wage determination.
Apprentices shall be paid fringe benefits in accordance with the provisions of the
apprenticeship program. If the apprenticeship program does not specify fringe benefits, apprentices must be paid the full amount of fringe benefits listed on the wage determination for the applicable classification. If the Administrator determines that a different practice prevails for the applicable apprentice classification, fringes shall be paid in accordance with that determination. In the event the Office of Apprenticeship Training, Employer and Labor Services, or a State Apprenticeship Agency recognized by the Office, withdraws approval of an apprenticeship program, the contractor will no longer be permitted to utilize apprentices at less than the applicable predetermined rate for the work performed until an acceptable program is approved.
(ii) Trainees. Except as provided in 29 CFR 5.16, trainees will not be permitted to work at less than the predetermined rate for the work performed unless they are employed pursuant to and individually registered in a program which has received prior approval, evidenced by formal certification by the U.S. Department of Labor, Employment and Training Administration. The ratio of trainees to journeymen on the job site shall not be greater than permitted under the plan approved by the Employment and Training Administration. Every trainee must be paid at not less than the rate specified in the approved program for the trainee's level of progress, expressed as a percentage of the journeyman hourly rate specified in the applicable wage determination. Trainees shall be paid fringe benefits in accordance with the provisions of the trainee program. If the trainee program does not mention fringe benefits, trainees shall be paid the full amount of fringe benefits listed on the wage determination unless the Administrator of the Wage and Hour Division determines that there is an apprenticeship program associated with the corresponding journeyman wage rate on the wage determination which provides for less than full fringe benefits for apprentices. Any employee listed on the payroll at a trainee rate who is not registered and participating in a training plan approved by the Employment and Training Administration shall be paid not less than the applicable wage rate on the wage determination for the classification of work actually performed. In addition, any trainee performing work on the job site in excess of the ratio permitted under the registered program shall be paid not less than the applicable wage rate on the wage determination for the work actually performed. In the event the Employment and Training Administration withdraws approval of a training program, the contractor will no longer be permitted to utilize trainees at less than the applicable predetermined rate for the work performed until an acceptable program is approved. (iii) Equal employment opportunity. The utilization of apprentices, trainees and journeymen under this part shall be in conformity with the equal employment opportunity requirements of Executive Order 11246, as amended and 29 CFR part
30. (5) Compliance with Copeland Act requirements.
The contractor shall comply with the requirements of 29 CFR part 3, which are incorporated by reference in this contract.
(6) Subcontracts.
The contractor or subcontractor shall insert in any subcontracts the clauses contained in 29 CFR 5.5(a)(1) through (10) and such other clauses as the EPA determines may by appropriate, and also a clause requiring the subcontractors to include these clauses in any lower tier subcontracts. The prime contractor shall be responsible for the compliance
by any subcontractor or lower tier subcontractor with all the contract clauses in 29 CFR 5.5.
(7) Contract termination; debarment.
A breach of the contract clauses in 29 CFR 5.5 may be grounds for termination of the contract, and for debarment as a contractor and a subcontractor as provided in 29 CFR 5.12.
(8) Compliance with Davis-Bacon and Related Act requirements.
All rulings and interpretations of the Davis-Bacon and Related Acts contained in 29 CFR parts 1, 3, and 5 are herein incorporated by reference in this contract.
(9) Disputes concerning labor standards.
(10) Disputes arising out of the labor standards provisions of this contract shall not be subject to the general disputes clause of this contract. Such disputes shall be resolved in accordance with the procedures of the Department of Labor set forth in 29 CFR parts 5, 6, and 7. Disputes within the meaning of this clause include disputes between the contractor (or any of its subcontractors) and Sub recipient(s), State, EPA, the U.S. Department of Labor, or the employees or their representatives. (11)
(12) Certification of eligibility.
(i) By entering into this contract, the contractor certifies that neither it (nor he or she) nor any person or firm who has an interest in the contractor's firm is a person or firm ineligible to be awarded Government contracts by virtue of section 3(a) of the Davis- Bacon Act or 29 CFR 5.12(a)(1).
(ii) No part of this contract shall be subcontracted to any person or firm ineligible for award of a Government contract by virtue of section 3(a) of the Davis-Bacon Act or 29 CFR 5.12(a)(1).
(iii) The penalty for making false statements is prescribed in the U.S. Criminal Code, 18 U.S.C. 1001.
1. Contract Provision for Contracts in Excess of $100,000. (a) Contract Work Hours and Safety Standards Act. The sub recipient shall insert the following clauses set forth in paragraphs (a)(1), (2), (3), and (4) of this section in full in any contract in an amount in excess of $100,000 and subject to the overtime provisions of the Contract Work Hours and Safety Standards Act. These clauses shall be inserted in addition to the clauses required by Item 3, above or 29 CFR 4.6. As used in this paragraph, the terms laborers and mechanics include watchmen and guards.
(1) Overtime requirements. No contractor or subcontractor contracting for any part of the contract work which may require or involve the employment of laborers or mechanics shall require or permit any such laborer or mechanic in any workweek in which he or she is employed on such work to work in excess of forty hours in such workweek unless such laborer or mechanic receives compensation at a rate not less than one and one-half times the basic rate of pay for all hours worked in excess of forty hours in such workweek.
(13)
(2) Violation; liability for unpaid wages; liquidated damages. In the event of any violation of the clause set forth in paragraph (b)(1) of this section the contractor and any subcontractor responsible therefore shall be liable for the unpaid wages. In addition, such contractor and subcontractor shall be liable to the United States (in the case of work done under contract for the District of Columbia or a territory, to such District or to such territory), for liquidated damages. Such liquidated damages shall be computed with respect to each individual laborer or mechanic, including watchmen and guards,
employed in violation of the clause set forth in paragraph (b)(1) of this section, in the sum of $25 for each calendar day on which such individual was required or permitted to work in excess of the standard workweek of forty hours without payment of the overtime wages required by the clause set forth in paragraph (b)(1) of this section. (14)
(3) Withholding for unpaid wages and liquidated damages. The sub recipient shall upon the request of the EPA Award Official or an authorized representative of the Department of Labor, withhold or cause to be withheld, from any moneys payable on account of work performed by the contractor or subcontractor under any such contract or any other Federal contract with the same prime contractor, or any other federally-assisted contract subject to the Contract Work Hours and Safety Standards Act, which is held by the same prime contractor, such sums as may be determined to be necessary to satisfy any liabilities of such contractor or subcontractor for unpaid wages and liquidated damages as provided in the clause set forth in paragraph (a)(2) of this section. (15)
(4) Subcontracts. The contractor or subcontractor shall insert in any subcontracts the clauses set forth in paragraph (a)(1) through (4) of this section and also a clause requiring the subcontractors to include these clauses in any lower tier subcontracts. The prime contractor shall be responsible for compliance by any subcontractor or lower tier subcontractor with the clauses set forth in paragraphs (a)(1) through (4) of this section. (16)
(b) In addition to the clauses contained in Item 3, above, in any contract subject only to the Contract Work Hours and Safety Standards Act and not to any of the other statutes cited in 29 CFR 5.1, the Sub recipient shall insert a clause requiring that the contractor or subcontractor shall maintain payrolls and basic payroll records during the course of the work and shall preserve them for a period of three years from the completion of the contract for all laborers and mechanics, including guards and watchmen, working on the contract. Such records shall contain the name and address of each such employee, social security number, correct classifications, hourly rates of wages paid, daily and weekly number of hours worked, deductions made, and actual wages paid. Further, the Sub recipient shall insert in any such contract a clause providing that the records to be maintained under this paragraph shall be made available by the contractor or subcontractor for inspection, copying, or transcription by authorized representatives of the (write the name of agency) and the Department of Labor, and the contractor or subcontractor will permit such representatives to interview employees during working hours on the job.
2. Compliance Verification
(a) The sub recipient shall periodically interview a sufficient number of employees entitled to DB prevailing wages (covered employees) to verify that contractors or subcontractors are paying the appropriate wage rates. As provided in 29 CFR 5.6(a)(3), all interviews must be conducted in confidence. The sub recipient must use Standard Form 1445 (SF 1445) or equivalent documentation to memorialize the interviews. Copies of the SF 1445 are available from EPA on request.
(b) The sub recipient shall establish and follow an interview schedule based on its assessment of the risks of noncompliance with DB posed by contractors or subcontractors and the duration of the contract or subcontract. Sub recipients must conduct more frequent interviews if the initial interviews or other information indicated that there is a risk that the contractor or subcontractor is not complying with DB. Sub recipients shall immediately conduct interviews in response to an alleged violation of the prevailing wage requirements. All interviews shall be conducted in confidence."
(c) The sub recipient shall periodically conduct spot checks of a representative sample of weekly payroll data to verify that contractors or subcontractors are paying the appropriate wage rates. The sub recipient shall establish and follow a spot check schedule based on its
assessment of the risks of noncompliance with DB posed by contractors or subcontractors and the duration of the contract or subcontract. At a minimum, if practicable the sub recipient should spot check payroll data within two weeks of each contractor or subcontractor’s submission of its initial payroll data and two weeks prior to the completion date the contract or subcontract. Sub recipients must conduct more frequent spot checks if the initial spot check or other information indicates that there is a risk that the contractor or subcontractor is not complying with DB. In addition, during the examinations the sub recipient shall verify evidence of fringe benefit plans and payments there under by contractors and subcontractors who claim credit for fringe benefit contributions.
(d) The sub recipient shall periodically review contractors and subcontractors use of apprentices and trainees to verify registration and certification with respect to apprenticeship and training programs approved by either the U.S Department of Labor or a state, as appropriate, and that contractors and subcontractors are not using disproportionate numbers of, laborers, trainees and apprentices. These reviews shall be conducted in accordance with the schedules for spot checks and interviews described in Item 5(b) and (c) above. (e) Sub recipients must immediately report potential violations of the DB prevailing wage requirements to the EPA DB contact listed above and to the appropriate DOL Wage and Hour City of Rio Dell Office listed at https://www.dol.gov/whd/america2.htm .

butterfly overwintering habitat. Prior to
construction and during the overwintering
period for monarchs in the region (i.e.,
October through February), a survey shall be
conducted at the eucalyptus grove adjacent to
the ATF complex to determine if monarch
butterflies are utilizing the habitat for
overwintering. If monarch butterflies are
confirmed to overwinter within the eucalyptus
grove, the grove shall be considered ESHA ,and
design of the ATF complex shall be modified to
incorporate the appropriate setbacks included
in the City of Grover Beach LCP and GBMC. The
limits of construction shall be clearly
demarcated by bright orange fencing in order
to avoid work within designated setback areas.
Areas outside of the limits of construction shall
be considered environmentally sensitive, and
access and construction shall be restricted. If
butterflies are present, all construction
adjacent to overwintering habitat shall be
conducted outside the overwintering season
(i.e., October to February), if feasible.
However, if construction must occur during
this time period, construction may only
commence if a City-approved monarch
