CONSULTANT, Subconsultants, and the CONSULTANT’s Independent CPA, that are pertinent to the AGREEMENT for audits, examinations, workpaper review, excerpts, and transactions, and copies thereof shall be furnished if requested without limitation.

ARTICLE IX AUDIT REVIEW PROCEDURES
A. Any dispute concerning a question of fact arising under an interim or post audit of this AGREEMENT that is not disposed of by AGREEMENT, shall be reviewed by LOCAL AGENCY’S Chief Financial Officer.

B. Not later than thirty (30) calendar days after issuance of the final audit report, CONSULTANT may request a review by LOCAL AGENCY’S Chief Financial Officer of unresolved audit issues. The request for review will be submitted in writing.

C. Neither the pendency of a dispute nor its consideration by LOCAL AGENCY will excuse CONSULTANT from full and timely performance, in accordance with the terms of this AGREEMENT.

D. CONSULTANT and subconsultant AGREEMENTs, including cost proposals and Indirect Cost Rates (ICR), may be subject to audits or reviews such as, but not limited to, an AGREEMENT audit, an incurred cost audit, an ICR Audit, or a CPA ICR audit work paper review. If selected for audit or review, the AGREEMENT, cost proposal and ICR and related work papers, if applicable, will be reviewed to verify compliance with 48 CFR 31 and other related laws and regulations. In the instances of a CPA ICR audit work paper review it is CONSULTANT’s responsibility to ensure federal, LOCAL AGENCY, or local government officials are allowed full access to the CPA’s work papers including making copies as necessary. The AGREEMENT, cost proposal, and ICR shall be adjusted by CONSULTANT and approved by LOCAL AGENCY Contract Administrator to conform to the audit or review recommendations. CONSULTANT agrees that individual terms of costs identified in the audit report shall be incorporated into the AGREEMENT by this reference if directed by LOCAL AGENCY at its sole discretion. Refusal by CONSULTANT to incorporate audit or review recommendations, or to ensure that the federal, LOCAL AGENCY or local governments have access to CPA work papers, will be considered a breach of AGREEMENT terms and cause for termination of the AGREEMENT and disallowance of prior reimbursed costs.

E. CONSULTANT’s Cost Proposal may be subject to a CPA ICR Audit Work Paper Review and/or audit by the Independent Office of Audits and Investigations (IOAI). IOAI, at its sole discretion, may review and/or audit and approve the CPA ICR documentation. The Cost Proposal shall be adjusted by the CONSULTANT and approved by the LOCAL AGENCY Contract Administrator to conform to the Work Paper Review recommendations included in the management letter or audit recommendations included in the audit report. Refusal by the CONSULTANT to incorporate the Work Paper Review recommendations included in the management letter or audit recommendations included in the audit report will be considered a breach of the AGREEMENT terms and cause for termination of the AGREEMENT and disallowance of prior reimbursed costs.

1. During IOAI’s review of the ICR audit work papers created by the CONSULTANT’s independent CPA, IOAI will work with the CPA and/or CONSULTANT toward a resolution of issues that arise during the review. Each party agrees to use its best efforts to resolve any audit disputes in a timely manner. If IOAI identifies significant issues during the review and is unable to issue a cognizant approval letter, LOCAL AGENCY will reimburse the CONSULTANT at an accepted ICR until a FAR (Federal Acquisition Regulation) compliant ICR (e.g. 48 CFR Part 31; GAGAS (Generally Accepted Auditing Standards); CAS (Cost Accounting Standards), if applicable; in accordance with procedures and guidelines of the American Association of State Highways and Transportation Officials (AASHTO) Audit Guide; and other applicable procedures and guidelines) is received and approved by IOAI.

Accepted rates will be as follows:
a. If the proposed rate is less than one hundred fifty percent (150%) - the accepted rate reimbursed will be ninety percent (90%) of the proposed rate. b. If the proposed rate is between one hundred fifty percent (150%) and two hundred percent (200%) - the accepted rate will be eighty-five percent (85%) of the proposed rate. c. If the proposed rate is greater than two hundred percent (200%) - the accepted rate will be seventy-five percent (75%) of the proposed rate.

2. If IOAI is unable to issue a cognizant letter per paragraph E.1. above, IOAI may require CONSULTANT to submit a revised independent CPA-audited ICR and audit report within three (3) months of the effective date of the management letter. IOAI will then have up to six (6) months to review the CONSULTANT’s and/or the independent CPA’s revisions.

3. If the CONSULTANT fails to comply with the provisions of this paragraph E, or if IOAI is still unable to issue a cognizant approval letter after the revised independent CPA audited ICR is submitted, overhead cost reimbursement will be limited to the accepted ICR that was established upon initial rejection of the ICR and set forth in paragraph E.1. above for all rendered services.

In this event, this accepted ICR will become the actual and final ICR for reimbursement purposes under this AGREEMENT.

4. CONSULTANT may submit to LOCAL AGENCY final invoice only when all of the following items have occurred: (1) IOAI accepts or adjusts the original or revised independent CPA audited ICR; (2) all work under this AGREEMENT has been completed to the satisfaction of LOCAL AGENCY; and, (3) IOAI has issued its final ICR review letter. The CONSULTANT MUST SUBMIT ITS FINAL INVOICE TO LOCAL AGENCY no later than sixty (60) calendar days after occurrence of the last of these items. The accepted ICR will apply to this AGREEMENT and all other agreements executed between LOCAL AGENCY and the CONSULTANT, either as a prime or subconsultant, with the same fiscal period ICR.

ARTICLE X SUBCONTRACTING
A. Nothing contained in this AGREEMENT or otherwise, shall create any contractual relation between the LOCAL AGENCY and any Subconsultants, and no subagreement shall relieve the CONSULTANT of its responsibilities and obligations hereunder. The CONSULTANT agrees to be as fully responsible to the LOCAL AGENCY for the acts and omissions of its Subconsultants and of persons either directly or indirectly employed by any of them as it is for the acts and omissions of persons directly employed by the CONSULTANT. The CONSULTANT's obligation to pay its Subconsultants is an independent obligation from the LOCAL AGENCY's obligation to make payments to the CONSULTANT.

B. The CONSULTANT shall perform the work contemplated with resources available within its own organization and no portion of the work shall be subcontracted without written authorization by the LOCAL AGENCY Contract Administrator, except that which is expressly identified in the CONSULTANT’s approved Cost Proposal.

In the event that there is a good faith dispute over all or any portion of the amount due on a progress payment from CONSULTANT or subconsultant to a subconsultant, CONSULTANT or subconsultant may withhold no more than 150 percent of the disputed amount. Any violation of this requirement shall constitute a cause for disciplinary action and shall subject the licensee to a penalty, payable to the subconsultant, of 2 percent of the amount due per month for every month that payment is not made.

In any action for the collection of funds wrongfully withheld, the prevailing party shall be entitled to his or her attorney’s fees and costs. The sanctions authorized under this requirement shall be separate from, and in addition to, all other remedies, either civil, administrative, or criminal.

The LOCAL AGENCY must email a copy of Exhibit 9-P to [email protected] before the end of the month after receiving the Exhibit 9-P from the CONSULTANT.

F. Prompt Payment of Withheld Funds to Subconsultants
The LOCAL AGENCY may hold retainage from CONSULTANT and shall make prompt and regular incremental acceptances of portions, as determined by the LOCAL AGENCY, of the contract work, and pay retainage to CONSULTANT based on these acceptances. The LOCAL AGENCY shall designate one of the methods below in the contract to ensure prompt and full payment of any retainage kept by CONSULTANT or subconsultant to a subconsultant.

No retainage will be held by the LOCAL AGENCY from progress payments due to CONSULTANT.

Any retainage kept by CONSULTANT or by a subconsultant must be paid in full to the earning subconsultant within 15 days after the subconsultant’s work is satisfactorily completed.

Any violation of these provisions shall subject the violating CONSULTANT or subconsultant to the penalties, sanctions, and remedies specified in Section 3321 of the California Civil Code. This requirement shall not be construed to limit or impair any contractual, administrative or judicial remedies, otherwise available to CONSULTANT or subconsultant in the event of a dispute involving late payment or nonpayment by CONSULTANT, deficient subconsultant performance and/or noncompliance by a subconsultant. This clause applies to both DBE and non-DBE subconsultants.

Any violation of these provisions shall subject the violating CONSULTANT or subconsultant to the penalties, sanctions and other remedies specified therein.

4. If a worker employed by a Subconsultant on a public works project is not paid the general prevailing per diem wages by the Subconsultant, the CONSULTANT of the project is not liable for the penalties described above unless the CONSULTANT had knowledge of that failure of the Subconsultant to pay the specified prevailing rate of wages to those workers or unless the CONSULTANT fails to comply with all of the following requirements:

6. If LOCAL AGENCY determines that employees of a Subconsultant were not paid the general prevailing rate of per diem wages and if LOCAL AGENCY did not retain sufficient money under the AGREEMENT to pay those employees the balance of wages owed under the general prevailing rate of per diem wages, the CONSULTANT shall withhold an amount of moneys due the Subconsultant sufficient to pay those employees the general prevailing rate of per diem wages if requested by LOCAL AGENCY.

G. Hours of Labor
Eight (8) hours labor constitutes a legal day's work. The CONSULTANT shall forfeit, as a penalty to the LOCAL AGENCY, twenty-five dollars ($25) for each worker employed in the execution of the AGREEMENT by the CONSULTANT or any of its Subconsultants for each calendar day during which such worker is required or permitted to work more than eight (8) hours in any one calendar day and forty (40) hours in any one calendar week in violation of the provisions of the Labor Code, and in particular §§1810 to 1815 thereof, inclusive, except that work performed by employees in excess of eight (8) hours per day, and forty (40) hours during any one week, shall be permitted upon compensation for all hours worked in excess of eight (8) hours per day and forty (40) hours in any week, at not less than one and one-half (1.5) times the basic rate of pay, as provided in §1815.

Bridge Maintenance Project
Description
MNS is providing survey and R/W, civil and structural engineering, and environmental and regulatory planning services to prepare PS&Es for this 43-bridge, BPMP. The project supports maintenance and rehabilitation of bridges at various locations throughout the county, with bridges constructed from 1911 to 1979 providing local community access and connectivity over important local irrigation canals operated by CCID, MID, PID, SID, SLDMWA, SSJID, and TID. Bridge types include cast-in-place (CIP) concrete slabs, T-beams, and arches, precast girders and CIP and post- tensioned box girders, and built-up and composite steel girders. Substructure types vary from pier walls, concrete and timber piles, spread foundations, and thru-pile extensions. Complex bridges include the Golden State Boulevard overhead of UPRR tracks—a 23-span built-up steel plate girder bridge, the Oakdale-Waterford Highway over Dry Creek—a continuous three-span RC deck arch bridge constructed in 1918, and other river bridge crossings. The team employed a programmatic approach process to manage the Caltrans Local Assistance forms, encroachment permits, and environmental studies. Three teams of bridge engineers performed a detailed inspection of each bridge, led by NHI-certified bridge inspection team leaders from MNS. The bridge inspection documented accessible bridge elements exposed above ground including the bridge approach, barriers, deck, soffit, girders, supports including bents and abutments, wing walls/return walls, and slope lining. The inspection team also completed the Initial Site Assessment (ISA) Checklist which will include a site screening for hazardous materials and petroleum products using the Caltrans ISA Guidance Document. The bridge inspection and subsequent work recommendations and associated PS&E deliverables follow the guidance of the AASHTO Manual for Bridge Evaluation (MBE), the Bridge Inspector’s Reference Manual (BIRM, 2022 NBIS), and by reference, requirements of Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) Bridge Inspector’s Reference Manual (BIRM).

City of Salinas, Proposal for Bridge Preventive Maintenance Program | 9 County of Riverside Flood Control and Water Conservation District Rancho California Bridge and Winchester Road Bridge over Murrieta Creek Description
MNS performed capacity evaluation of the existing Rancho California Bridge (Phase 2B) and Winchester Road Bridge (Phase 2C) crossings over Murrieta Creek, due to channel modifications as part of the USACE Murrieta Creek Project Improvements. The Murrieta Creek improvements project will permanently lower the creek invert by approximately 5 feet and 10 feet at the Rancho California and Winchester Road bridges, respectively, to achieve an Ultimate stream profile, potentially affecting the stream loading on the bridge and the resulting pile capacity due to the change in soil overburden over the piles.

At Rancho California Bridge, the team evaluated the structural and geotechnical capacity of the bridge foundation subjected to multiple live load vehicles and stream forces for 100, 200, and 500-year channel events, and in multiple loading situations including the existing condition, construction condition for excavation adjacent to footings, and the ultimate condition with installation of a grouted stone scour countermeasure at a lowered invert elevation. The team delivered an exhaustive review and analysis in two months to help USACE and the District meet their bid and grant funding schedule. The load rating demonstrates that the proposed Murrieta Creek improvements reduce stream loading on the existing Rancho California Bridge and improve conditions for foundation stability.

Following our successful delivery of solutions for Phase 2B, MNS evaluated the effect of the modified channel configuration at Winchester Road Bridge. While the stream configuration reduced hydraulic demands, this location had additional complexity due to scour without the benefit of a countermeasure, and is subject to liquefaction and lateral spreading.

SECTION 1. QUALIFICATIONS AND EXPERIENCE
City of Salinas, Proposal for Bridge Preventive Maintenance Program | 10 San Bernardino County Transportation Authority (SBCTA)
Interstate 10 Express Lanes Design-Build
Description
This $673M project involved the design and construction of 10 miles of improvements to implement dual express lanes in each direction of Interstate 10, from the Los Angeles/San Bernardino County line to east of the Interstate 10/15 interchange. To accommodate the added express lanes, the project has widened or replaced 20 bridge structures, including six overcrossing replacements, two undercrossing replacements, seven undercrossing widenings, and five bridge widenings over channels. The project involved bridge maintenance improvements including barrier replacement, spall and damage repair, and deck overlay of multiple bridge structures. All bridges were load rated as part of the construction phase. Significant design and construction challenges included complex and highly skewed bridges, staged freeway bridge replacements, and maintenance of traffic.

Complex bridge analysis was conducted for seismic pushover analysis, superstructure design, and stress analysis at each stage of erection, deck placement, and post-tensioning. Chad led and trained a nationwide team of engineers to deliver the design and PS&E for 10 bridge widenings and replacements, special structures, and over 40 special-designed retaining walls in an accelerated 18-month schedule. Successful and timely delivery of the structures’ milestones required adherence to the project quality management program, constant collaboration between the SBCTA, Caltrans, Design, and Construction, and daily or weekly coordination between all disciplines and partners including roadway, structure, drainage, maintenance of traffic and intelligent transportation systems, utility relocation design, tolling, signals, lighting, landscape architecture, and survey. As part of the work program, Chad coordinated and recorded seismic design training modules, led by himself and senior staff, for a consistent design approach across the team.

Services were provided by Kyle and Chad prior to joining MNS.

City of Salinas, Proposal for Bridge Preventive Maintenance Program | 14 SECTION 3.

Work Plan
Project Understanding
The City of Salinas is advancing improvements through
the Bridge Preventative Maintenance Program (BPMP) to
preserve critical transportation infrastructure, extending the service life of existing bridges within the City’s
inventory. The bridges included in this program exhibit deterioration typical of aging bridge structures exposed to traffic loading, environmental exposure, and long-
term service conditions. Preventative maintenance (PM)
and targeted repairs are therefore necessary to maintain structural integrity, ensure public safety, and reduce long- term lifecycle costs.

The proposed project will develop repair strategies and construction documents for three bridges within the
City’s inventory:
» Sanborn Road Over Union Pacific Railroad (UPRR) &
AMTRAK – Bridge No. 44C0039L
» Sanborn Road Over UPRR & AMTRAK –
Bridge No. 44C0039R
» East Market Street Over East Front Street –
Bridge No. 44C0168
Recent bridge inspection reports have identified
deterioration of several bridge elements including
deck surfaces, joint seals, concrete elements, and steel components. Preventative maintenance repairs have been
recommended to address these deficiencies and restore
the bridges to a state of good repair.

The City of Salinas’ goal for this project is to develop a biddable PS&E package that is compliant with
requirements, policies, and procedures of the Caltrans
BPMP Guidelines for Local Agencies, the Highway Bridge
Program (HBP), and the Federal Highway Administration
(FHWA). Our team is well-versed in providing BPMP
PS&E packages that meet funding agency requirements
and ultimately reduce long-term cost and risk over the
lifespan of these valuable City assets.

Our Project Manager and other team members have
performed BPMP PS&E phase projects for multiple
agencies, including for 16 bridges for the City of San
Diego, 8 bridges for the City of Orange, an 8-span river crossing for the City of Indian Wells, and 43 bridges
for Stanislaus County. We recently assisted in acquiring funding through the Caltrans BPMP program for the
City of Fontana, and performed the BPMP Planning,
Prioritizing, and Reporting phase project for 32 bridges for the City of Corona.

We understand the funding, technical, and managerial
challenges associated with this project, the solutions
to those challenges, and how to implement them on
time and on budget. Our Project Manager and staff are
dedicated to providing the service necessary to make this project successful.

Project Approach
Based on available bridge inspection reports and the
preliminary bridge list, the anticipated work generally includes deck preservation, localized structural repairs, and improvements to bridge elements vulnerable to
deterioration. Typical repairs expected as part of this BPMP project include:
» Methacrylate deck sealing
» Polyester concrete deck overlays
» Concrete spall repairs and patching of
unsound concrete
» Replacement of deteriorated joint seals
» Cleaning and recoating of steel structural components » Repair of damaged reinforcement and localized
structural elements
» Repaving approach roadways and smoothing
deck transitions
We have assembled a team of competent professionals
to provide the expertise critical to the success of this project, led by a project manager with a history of design, inspection, and experience leading BPMP projects. Our
Bridge & Structures Practice is committed to providing
dedicated staff and leadership to this project to give
the City the highest possible probability of achieving
the desired outcome. We appreciate the opportunity to
present the following approach:

City of Salinas, Proposal for Bridge Preventive Maintenance Program | 15 SECTION 3. WORK PLAN
Project Management Approach
Project Manager, Kyle Turner, PE, CBI, has served in
leadership positions at every stage of his life. Educated at the United States Naval Academy in Annapolis, Maryland, his leadership skills were sharpened through experience in the combat zone as a United States Marine Corps Officer, experience as an engineering company founder and
research principal investigator, and structural engineering practice builder. Kyle is accustomed to the responsibilities and pressures of leadership. Kyle’s approach to project management is one of active participation—trust but
verify, two-way communication, transparency, and
ownership. Kyle’s team does not make excuses—they
solve problems. Our goal is not only to deliver a
healthy project, but to make the process an enjoyable
collaboration whereby everybody learns and grows in a
supportive and team-oriented environment.

It takes all project stakeholders to make a project
successful: the client, the consultant team, and oversight.

A good leader understands everyone’s value, assumes
positive intent, and draws the best out of each individual.

A successful outcome is the result of great teamwork, but Kyle understands the burden rests on the Project Manager to overcome the obstacles to that success.

QUALITY MANAGEMENT PLAN (QMP)
Our philosophy is that the Project Manager, Kyle Turner, PE, CBI, assumes complete responsibility for quality across the project. We will implement a QMP, including Quality Assurance (QA) and Quality Control (QC) measures, and
Interdisciplinary Reviews (IDR) at each phase of design.

SCHEDULE AND BUDGET
We developed the project schedule based on durations
of individual scoped tasks, milestones required to be
reached prior to beginning work on any products,
reasonable review times required for oversight, adequate coordination time, our understanding of agency
workflows, and our Project Manager’s ability to keep the project on track through regular communication.

We develop our fee proposals based on a bottom-up
approach, meaning we estimate the number of hours
required for each individual engineer, planner, scientist, surveyor, and leader to complete each scoped task from
concept to approval, multiply by billing rates, and add other direct costs. We understand while this is a business, it is at the expense of the taxpayer. With that in mind, we target our budgets for efficiency, requiring very engaged project and task management.

Design Approach

COORDINATION AND PROJECT DELIVERY
Successful delivery of this project will require close
coordination with City staff, regulatory agencies, and
other stakeholders. Two of the project bridges cross UPRR and AMTRAK corridors, requiring careful coordination
with the railroad operators and adherence to railroad
safety requirements during design development and
construction planning. Based on the current project
scope, access to UPRR R/W (right-of-way) is not
anticipated to be required to support field investigations or design activities. Field review and design development are anticipated to be completed without encroachment
into railroad R/W.

Construction activities, however, are expected to require access to UPRR R/W. The contractor will likely construct a temporary platform suspended from the bridge (and
over the tracks) to facilitate coating removal, containment, and recoating activities. Although the contractor may only require a narrow depth of a 2-foot work area over the
limited areas at the track crossings, this is compounded by the existing bridge minimum vertical clearance, and
adherence to required temporary horizontal construction clearances by UPRR. The contractor will be responsible
for coordinating directly with UPRR and obtaining all
required railroad permits, agreements, flagging services, and approvals in accordance with UPRR requirements.

Our team’s critical first step is to draft a preliminary engineering exhibit to support and submit our application for Right of Entry Agreements, which allow third parties to access UPRR property for short-term tasks such as
painting. MNS will evaluate the required temporary
minimum vertical clearance and if needed, submit an
exemption for UPRR approval.

City of Salinas, Proposal for Bridge Preventive Maintenance Program | 16 SECTION 3. WORK PLAN
Throughout the project,
coordination meetings and
progress updates will be conducted
to maintain communication,
address potential issues early, and
ensure the project remains on
schedule and within budget.

Following completion of design, we
will provide support during the bid
and construction phases including
responses to contractor questions, review of submittals, and preparation of as-built drawings.

FEDERAL FUNDING AND REGULATORY COMPLIANCE
The project is federally funded through the Highway
Bridge Program and will be administered in accordance
with the requirements of the Caltrans Division of
Local Assistance. As such, all project documentation,
environmental review, and design development must
comply with the Caltrans LAPM and other applicable
federal and state regulations.

Compliance with these requirements will be essential
to maintaining eligibility for federal reimbursement and ensuring a smooth project delivery process.

Environmental documentation will be required to satisfy both the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA)
and the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA).

The environmental process will evaluate potential
impacts associated with the bridge repairs and identify appropriate mitigation measures where necessary. In
our experience, it is highly likely that these maintenance repairs results in no adverse impacts for CEQA/NEPA and exemptions/exclusions can be pursued.

PROJECT INVESTIGATION AND EXISTING CONDITIONS
A comprehensive understanding of existing site
conditions will be necessary to support the development of repair designs. The project will include field
investigations and data collection activities including existing topographic survey, bridge condition verification, and utility research.

Additional survey data will be collected if needed to
support preparation of a project base map and identify
existing roadway features, bridge elements, and utilities within the project limits.

When document review is complete and any permissions
required are received, we will dispatch a pair of bridge inspectors, led by a NHI-certified bridge safety inspection team leader, to perform detailed PM inspections
of each bridge. The purpose of these inspections is
to both quantify to a high degree of accuracy each
BPMP-eligible deficiency and to document any other
deficiencies, especially related to safety. The accuracy and completeness of these inspections set up the rest of the project, including construction, for the best possible opportunity to succeed.

DEVELOPMENT OF PS&ES
While we will deliver inspection reports for each bridge, the primary deliverable for this project will be a complete set of PS&Es suitable for construction bidding. The design process will involve evaluation of bridge deficiencies, development of appropriate repair strategies, and
preparation of construction documents that meet City
standards and Caltrans requirements.

For the Sanborn Road OH Left Bridge (Bridge No.
44C0039L), it is recommended in the BPMP Bridge
List to clean and paint steel superstructure. Successful delivery of this scope of work and preparation for
contractor activities requires a clear understanding of the required contractor work activities and preparation for early permitting action items to avoid schedule
impacts. The work program will be well defined with all project stakeholders through the permitting process
and project development team (PDT) meetings. We have
real experience working with contractors, fabricators,
and the Turner-Fairbanks FHWA Coatings and Corrosion
Laboratory, to identify the best coating solutions and
materials for multiple projects and environments.

Our team will prepare draft PS&E documents for City
review and comment, followed by the development of
final construction documents ready for advertisement.

The final PS&E package will include construction plans, Typical "Three-Coat" -

technical specifications for materials and repair activities according to Caltrans standards, an engineer’s cost
estimate, and supporting documentation required for
federal-aid projects.

As this work includes multiple sites, a well-organized
plan set assists the contractor in planning mobilization activities to maximize efficiency. It also limits complexity and Requests for Information (RFI), making bidding fair and clear and making construction smooth and on time.

Scope of Work
TASK 1 Project Coordination and Management
Effective project management is essential to delivering coordinated, constructible, and BPMP-eligible
construction documents. Field assessments will directly inform design decisions, and active leadership will
be maintained throughout the project to minimize
complexity and maintain schedule and budget control.

SUBTASK 1.1 Project Management
This subtask includes overall project administration,
internal coordination, invoicing, and tracking scope;
schedule; and budget; and providing those regular
updates through monthly progress reports and schedule
lookaheads (including attention to critical path items); and generally supervising and guiding all sub-discipline leads to ensure conformance with the contract provisions. Since this project is funded through the HBP, Local Assistance Program Guidelines [Chapter 6]), it will follow the Caltrans approval process as outlined in the Office of Special
Funded Projects (OSFP) Information and Procedures
Guide and LAPM.

This task will also encompass the Quality Management
Plan (QMP). Project Manager, Kyle Turner, PE, CBI,
assumes all responsibility for quality and will implement the QMP throughout the project. QC is a function of
Quality Management but will be performed and budgeted
for at the discipline level. Kyle will ensure that those QC checks are being performed—a process called QA—which
will be budgeted under this subtask.

SUBTASK 1.2 Project Meetings
Shortly after Notice to Proceed (NTP), we will schedule and provide agenda (and minutes) for a project kick-off meeting to be attended (in-person or virtually) by the
Project Manager and Project Engineer. We will host up to six project development team (PDT) meetings throughout
the course of the project.

SUBTASK 1.3 Project Schedule
We estimate the duration of this project to be six months.

SUBTASK 1.4 Progress Reporting
Progress reports will be provided on a monthly basis
attached to monthly invoices.

Task 1 Deliverables
» Monthly invoices
» Monthly progress reports
» Schedule updates
» Meeting agendas and minutes
TASK 2 Background and Existing Conditions
Accurate data collection and field verification are critical to developing effective preventative maintenance designs.

Field assessments will be led by experienced engineering inspection staff to document and quantify BPMP-eligible and ineligible deficiencies.

SUBTASK 2.1 Data Collection
SUBTASK 2.1.1 OFFICE DATA COLLECTION
We will review available bridge as-built plans,
inspection reports, utility records, R/W information, and related documentation.

TASK 2.1.2 FIELD DATA COLLECTION
Field assessments will be conducted to verify existing
deficiencies and identify any additional deficiencies
requiring attention. Deficiencies will be quantified
and mapped to support design development.

Any immediate safety concerns will be promptly
communicated to the City.

SUBTASK 2.2 Field Review
We will contact the Caltrans District Local Assistance
Engineer (DLAE) to determine whether a formal
field review is necessary for project authorization in
accordance with LAPM Chapter 7 and coordinate with
all stakeholders.

SUBTASK 2.3 Survey
Survey services will be performed to obtain the data and information necessary to develop a topographic base
map to support proposed improvements. Survey limits
will be minimized and targeted to support efficient design development. All survey data will be prepared in NAD83
California Coordinate System, Zone IV, and NAVD88
vertical datum.

SUBTASK 2.4 Utility Coordination (Optional)
Utilities within and adjacent to the project limits will be identified and coordinated with utility owners as
necessary. Based on the preliminary scope of work,
utilities should not be impacted.

SUBTASK 2.5 Base Mapping
We will develop the R/W base map for each bridge
location based on provided as-built plans and the field survey. We will develop utility base maps as needed.

SUBTASK 2.6 Environmental Documentation
SUBTASK 2.6.1 CULTURAL RESOURCE DESKTOP REVIEW
We will conduct a Cultural Resources Desktop Review
which will include a records search at the Northwestern Information Center (NWIC); review of archival maps and
historic aerial photography archived at the University
of California, Santa Barbara library; a Sacred Lands File Search with the California Native American Heritage
Commission (NAHC or Commission); and procurement of
a contact list of identified tribal stakeholders to consult with on behalf of the project.

SUBTASK 2.6.2 BIOLOGICAL RESOURCES DESKTOP
REVIEW
To support the CEQA Exemption and NEPA Exclusion, and
the Caltrans Preliminary Environmental Study (PES), we
will conduct a desktop biological resources assessment.

Because all work and staging areas will be conducted
from the roadway or developed roadside areas, impacts
to jurisdictional features and special-status species and resources are not anticipated. We will conduct a records search of species known to occur in the area using the
California Natural Diversity Database (CNDDB), California Native Plant Society Rare Plant Inventory, and USFWS
Information for Planning and Consultation (IPaC).

SUBTASK 2.6.3 PRELIMINARY ENVIRONMENTAL STUDY
(PES)
Following the collection of existing site information and meeting with Caltrans to discuss the project, we will
prepare the project-specific Preliminary Environmental
Study (PES) Form, and associated field forms for submittal to Caltrans for approval, which is required by Caltrans as the project is federally funded. The PES Form is intended to be a scoping document to identify the following: the scope of the project, existing conditions of the project area, the potential existence of sensitive environmental resources within the project area, required technical
studies, the responsible or regulatory agencies where
early coordination or consultation is necessary or where approvals and permits are needed, and the NEPA Class
of Action (environmental document classification). The
PES Form will be updated in accordance with Caltrans
guidance provided in the LAPM, Exhibit 6-B: Instructions for Completing the PES Form.

In the event Caltrans determines additional studies are required other than those identified in the draft PES
Form, we can provide the City with a scope and budget to authorize those tasks.

SUBTASK 2.6.4 CEQA DOCUMENT – CATEGORICAL

EXEMPTION (CE)
The proposed bridge improvements propose preventive
maintenance work without permanent impacts. Therefore,
this scope of work provides the necessary work program
to support a CE. Public Resources Code section 15301
categorically exempts projects from CEQA analysis when
the project involves “the operation, repair, maintenance, permitting, leasing, licensing, or minor alteration of
existing public or private structures, facilities, mechanical equipment, or topographical features involving no
expansion of existing or former use,” which we believe
applies. The exemption specifically applies to Section
15301(d) for the removal of potential lead based paint.

We will prepare a Notice of Exemption (NOE) pursuant to State CEQA Guidelines Section 15301 (Existing Facilities).

We will complete the NOE form, as well as prepare a
technical memorandum that outlines the proposed
project components and compliance with the
requirements of the State CEQA Guidelines Section 15301.

We will submit a draft of the NOE and Technical Memo to the City for review.
