Concurrence With Contract Provisions
Cumming Group is proposing the following additions and modifications to the contract language for consideration by the City of Salinas. However, we understand/accept any decision by the City to accept or reject Cumming Group’s proposed modifications.

DD&A provides application review for completeness as well as consistency with Monterey County Title 19 (Subdivision Ordinance), Title 20 (Coastal Implementation Plan), Title 21 (Inland Areas), and other County regulations as applicable. This experience includes processing applications for a variety of projects including oil facilities, lot line adjustments, installation of erosion control for private residences, agricultural processing facilities, County ordinances, and residential subdivisions. DD&A’s services have included review for each project working directly with County staff and coordinating with the applicant regarding project completeness. Additional services have included site visits, coordinating with other County Departments to solicit input/comments on applications, preparing project-level CEQA documentation, and preparing staff reports and related findings/resolutions.

Most recently as part of our on-call contract with the
County of Monterey, DD&A is currently providing services to the County Housing and Community Development
Department for the East Garrison Specific Plan
Amendment Project. The East Garrison Specific Plan was
originally approved in 2005 as the primary plan governing development of “Track Zero” on the Former Fort Ord. The approved East Garrison Specific Plan included a three (3)- phase development consisting of 1,470 residential units; a maximum 75,000 square feet (“sf”) of commercial space; open space and parks; reuse of historic buildings; and artistic uses. A fourth Town Center phase was anticipated to be developed in tandem with the other three (3) phases. Development of the East Garrison community was slowed due to economic issues associated with the recession in 2008 and other obstacles. To date Phase 1, the majority of Phase 2, and portions of Phase 3 of the development outlined in the East Garrison Specific Plan have been constructed.

The current East Garrison developer is seeking changes to the adopted East Garrison Specific Plan due to changes in market conditions and a shift in consumer spending away from in-person retail. The proposed revisions include changes to the approved unit types and locations, a 45,000-sf reduction in the maximum amount of proposed commercial space, and an overall 16-unit reduction of residential units. DD&A prepared a third addendum to the adopted Subsequent Environmental Impact Report (“SEIR”) for the East Garrison Project to analyze potential increased impacts as a result of the changes to the adopted Specific Plan. DD&A worked closely with County staff to ensure that the SEIR Addendum correctly captured the nuances of the proposed changes and potential impacts while working towards completion of all deliverables on an accelerated timeline. In addition, DD&A prepared the staff report, resolution, and other Firm Experience and Qualifications B-2 Denise Duffy & Associates, Inc.

SURF! BUS RAPID TRANSIT PROJECT
The Monterey-Salinas Transit (MST) District, through our contract with Kimley-Horn & Associates, retained DD&A to provide CEQA and NEPA environmental services for the MST SURF! Busway and Bus Rapid Transit Project. The MST SURF! Busway and Bus Rapid Transit Project consists of approximately six linear miles of roadway improvements between MST’s Marina Transit Exchange (northern terminus) in Marina, and Contra Costa Street and Orange Avenue in Sand City (ultimate southern terminus) in order to provide dedicated express busway service. The project is within the Transportation Agency of Monterey (TAMC) Monterey Branch Line rail corridor right of way (ROW) in Monterey County.

DD&A provided various deliverables for the project, including an evaluation of the project’s consistency with relevant local, regional, and state land use plans and policies, including applicable coastal plans. DD&A also conducted the necessary biological surveys and prepared the Biological Resources Assessment for the project.

Mitigation measures were identified to reduce potential impacts to natural resources and special-status species as well as comply with the Fort Ord Habitat Management Plan (HMP) and other related documents and incorporated into the EIR for the project. In addition, DD&A also provided NEPA compliant Environmental Justice analysis and Section 4(f) analysis to assess potential impacts to cultural and historic resources, air quality, and environmental justice (marginalized) communities. DD&A provided the biological evaluation to facilitate Section 7 compliance with the federal Endangered Species Act. DD&A is currently assisting MST in acquiring the final coastal development permits from the California Coastal Commission, City of Marina, and City of Sand City, and coordinating with local entities to locate appropriate mitigation sites and perform restoration requirements.

MADISON STREET SEASONAL EMPLOYEE HOUSING
DD&A was contracted to provide environmental documentation for the Madison Street Seasonal Employee Housing project located just outside the City of Salinas in unincorporated Monterey County, and the County served as the CEQA Lead Agency for this project. The project proposed to construct residential facilities for seasonal agricultural workers allowed into the U.S. on temporary work visas.

an IS/MND for the property for a previous project knowledge of specific site constraints, local land issues, and potential environmental impacts. The CEQA analysis examined the impacts posed by the new proposed development according to the most recent update of the CEQA checklist and identified mitigation to reduce the impacts to a less than significant level. Specific CEQA areas addressed in-depth within the IS/MND included
cultural/tribal resources, traffic, aesthetics, and hydrology. One of the major issues associated with the project was the potential increase in runoff, which could adversely affect existing drainage systems.

DD&A worked closely with the County of Monterey to produce the IS/MND, frequently communicating with staff to ensure that the IS/MND adequately addressed the potential environmental impacts related to the project. DD&A has a policy of closely communicating with the lead agency for each project in order to help streamline the environmental process and avoid errors/omissions in environmental documentation to avoid litigation.

CALIFORNIA CENTRAL COAST VETERAN’S CEMETERY
Under contract to the State of California Department of General Services (DGS) and with the cooperation of the
California Department of Veterans Affairs (CalVet) and the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (USDVA), DD&A
prepared a combined Environmental Impact
Report/Environmental Assessment (EIR/EA) for Phase II
and buildout under the 2015 Master Plan for the Central Coast California Veterans Cemetery (CCCVC). The NEPA
component of this project was required due to federal
funding from USDVA. The EIR/EA addressed both CEQA and
NEPA requirements for the project and offered a detailed description of the overlaps and distinctions of the two environmental frameworks.

DD&A worked with DGS to perform public outreach services, conducting broad public noticing for the project, Native American tribal consultation, and facilitating several community workshops throughout the environmental process. DD&A prepared the supporting technical documentation to facilitate Section 7 consultation under the Federal Endangered Species Act and Section 106 consultation under the National Historic Preservation Act. DD&A assisted DGS with preparing responses to comments for the many comments received during the public review period for the Draft EIR/EA; the majority of the comments received on the Draft EIR/EA were supportive of the CCCVC project. DD&A prepared the Final EIR/EA and Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Plan (MMRP) for the project, the Finding of No Significant Impact (FONSI) required for NEPA, and the Notice of Determination required by CEQA. The project was approved by DGS, acting as the CEQA lead agency, and also received approval from USDVA as NEPA lead agency.

DD&A provided on-site construction monitoring for Phase II of the CCCVC. No litigation was filed in opposition to the project.

550 AND 644 PIERCY ROAD INDUSTRIAL DEVELOPMENTS
DD&A prepared the CEQA documentation for two adjacent industrial development projects located at 550 Piercy and 644 Piercy Road. Two separate project applications were proposed for Site Development Permits to allow the construction of industrial developments on the two sites. Both projects included common amenity areas, internal roadways, loading docks, parking, and access driveways. The exact uses of the proposed buildings on both sites were not yet determined but assumed to be industrial distribution, manufacturing, and/or research & development.

A Phase I Environmental Assessment (ESA) was completed
for each project site. These studies included property
history, site inspection and regulatory database search, and hazardous materials conditions. Soils at the project site were determined to show trace elements of naturally occurring asbestos (NOA). Preparation and
implementation of an Asbestos Dust Mitigation Plan (ADMP) for submittal to the BAAQMD was presented as mitigation to avoid impacts related to NOA.

Noise evaluations were completed for each project based on field measurements, the City’s noise and vibration standards set forth in the General Plan, and the Federal Highway Administration Roadway Construction Noise Model. A cumulative noise analysis was prepared to consider impacts from the simultaneous development of both Piercy projects.

Transportation analyses were completed for each project based on the CEQA metric of daily vehicle miles traveled (VMT). Traffic calming measures and other access improvements were identified in the IS/MNDs, based on consultation with City’s Department of Public Works, to avoid VMT impacts.

DD&A prepared a Final IS/MND for each project with formal responses to comments received. The comments questioned the analysis in the IS/MNDs, and the responses documented that none of the comments presented new information or presented substantial evidence supporting a fair argument that the project would result in significant unavoidable impacts requiring an EIR. The IS/MNDs were adopted and the projects approved in October and November 2023.

recycled water available to the existing Castroville
Seawater Intrusion Project in northern Monterey County.

The project includes an Advanced Water Purification
Facility, approximately five miles of pipeline, injection wells, and diversion facilities and water sources from
municipal wastewater, industrial wastewater, urban stormwater runoff, and surface water diversions.

In Salinas, DD&A was responsible for the biological and environmental monitoring during construction of the Blanco Drain Diversion Facilities (BDDF) BDDF consisted of a diversion pump wet well, intake box, and a 30-inch diameter inlet pipe. Construction monitoring at BDDF began July 12, 2017, and was completed on August 26, 2020.

DD&A continues to provide environmental compliance services and oversees coordination with the State Water Resources Control Board (SWRCB) Division of Financial Assistance and U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) staff related to the project’s compliance with relevant federal laws. DD&A is responsible for coordination of the federal and state permitting effort, working with key regulatory agencies. Of note, DD&A coordinated consultation between the U.S. EPA and U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) for Section 7 of the Endangered Species Act, and for the SWRCB to act as the federal lead for Section 106 of the National Historic Properties Act consultation. Additionally, DD&A also provided pre-construction biological survey and construction-phase monitoring services for the project.

Recently, the EIR and EIR Addenda collectively won the statewide award for Outstanding Environmental Analysis Document from the Association of Environmental Professionals (AEP). The AEP lauded the Pure Water Monterey/Groundwater Replenishment Project EIR as excelling "in its originality and approach in addressing and unprecedented breadth and depth of potential contaminants and compounds of emerging concern," and for having "laid the groundwork and sketched out the possibilities of what would ultimately become a model for the future of purified water projects."

STRADA VERDE INNOVATION PARK PROJECT
The County of San Benito selected DD&A to serve as the environmental consultant for the Strada Verde Innovation Park Project (“SVIP Project”). The SVIP Project site is located in unincorporated San Benito County on a site that the County previously considered as part of the El Rancho San Benito Specific Plan Project. Specifically, the SVIP Project is on an approximately 2,777-acre triangular site located 2.5 miles southeast of the US Highway 101 and SR 25 interchange. The SVIP Project consisted of an application for a General Plan Amendment, Specific Plan, and a Development Agreement to allow the creation of a new automotive research and development campus and business center. At maximum build-out, the project would have included approximately 6,688,260 square feet in both Industrial/Research & Development Areas (“Innovation Centers”) and Commercial Areas. The SVIP Project consisted of two phases, with Phase 1 consisting of the construction of an automotive testing area (i.e., Innovation Center 4) and a portion of the town center. Phase 1 would also have included construction of the emergency vehicle access road connecting the site with SR 25 and other associated infrastructure including roads, drainage channels, and utilities.

Consultant shall furnish the City with original certificates and amendatory endorsements or copies of the applicable insurance language effecting coverage required by this Agreement. All certificates and endorsements are to be received and approved by the City before work commences.

Special Risks or Circumstances
City reserves the right to modify these requirements, including limits, based on the nature of the risk, prior experience, insurer, coverage, or other special circumstances.

RELEVANT PROJECT EXPERIENCE
CSUMB Freeman Stadium
Project Location: 100 Campus Center, Seaside
Start : September 21 ,2021 | Completion : May 7, 2022
Project Cost: $11 M | CM Contract Value: $230 K
For almost 20 years, the stadium sat mostly idle - a desolate slab of concrete - except for hosting graduations for CSUMB students. After the renovation of the stadium houses 90,000 SF of FIFA, USL, and NCAA-approved synthetic turf field, seating for 6,000 people, stadium lighting, Broadcast/Press Box, a beer garden, and renovated offices and field house.

This has become a place to gather the community and
celebrate the diversity and beauty of both the people and place that represent the Monterey Bay.

Minimizing Student & Community Impact During
Construction The stadium’s location on the CSUMB
campus made it easier to isolate construction from the
public. However, the stadium is adjacent to the Otter Sports Complex and the Aquatic Center, requiring the team to
coordinate with the University to ensure students could continue using these facilities unimpeded.

Some of the largest challenges included:

Multiple owners – managing the needs, wants, and
expectations of both the university and MBFC leadership.

Non-construction owner – MBFC was not experienced with
the many requirements of building on state property. The project team worked collaboratively to identify best value solutions to each issue that arose during the design,
permitting, construction, and closeout process.

Utility coordination – the existing infrastructure had been installed by the US Army in the days of Fort Ord. The entire electrical and lighting system were replaced from scratch, and proactive communication with PG&E allowed for
equipment and activation to occur without critical path impacts. Similarly, partnering-based outreach with the
Marina Coast Water District allowed for productive
agreements on the design and on-time inspections of the completed work.

The project consisted of a phased renovation to the existing CSUMB Otter Express dining facility. The scope of
improvements included new kitchen equipment, code
upgrades, private dining, a new bar, a modernized seating area, and site accessibility updates.

A traditional full interior renovation and code upgrade would have taken the facility offline for an entire academic year.

Instead, the construction management team developed a
phased approach to the improvements that achieved all
project goals while keeping the building in operation to serve the CSUMB community.

One of the key scope elements was an upgrade to the
building’s fire alarm system. Rather than replace portions of the system during each phase, the entire system was
upgraded during the initial phase. This required significant advance coordination between the design team and
University to commit to the configuration and layout of all walls, equipment, and furniture so that the upgraded system would contain all of the devices that would be needed at the end of the project.

Some of the largest challenges included:

Interior renovations always carry the risk of unanticipated concealed conditions that are not discovered until work is underway, which was the case here. Because time was of
the essence to reopen after each break, the team partnered with the local deputy State Fire Marshal to create phased permitting reviews that allowed portions of work to proceed while others were awaiting approval.

The other significant challenge was that of extremely longlead times for equipment, particularly. Rather than delay the project, the project team worked with the vendor to
reconfigure existing equipment and bring in temporary
equipment from other campus locations until the new
equipment was available. As new pieces of equipment
arrived, the construction team installed them during nights and weekend closures to avoid service interruptions.
