This project improved a treatment plant by installing a booster station, rehabilitating a well, installing an
arsenic treatment system, and constructing a steel
bolted backwash tank and chemical building with the
capacity of 3,200 gallons-per-minute (GPM). Concrete
mortar lined and coated (CML&C) piping and ductile
iron piping were installed. Additionally, the project
added a new Southern California Edison service
antenna that was integrated into the existing SCADA
system and modifications to site grading, paving, and
drainage were made to plant. This plant contained
two welded steel reservoirs and boosters. These
reservoirs and boosters were demolished upon
completion of the new booster station. Patrick was

DATES 2021-2024
The City of Santa
Monica is
undertaking a
progressive
design/build
project that will
involve an approximate $72M expansion and upgrade
of the Santa Monica Arcadia Water Treatment Plant
(AWTP) located in the City of Los Angeles. This
project includes the restoration of the Olympic Well
Field's pumping capacity by adding and/or improving
new treatment facilities (Olympic Advanced Water
Treatment Facility) within the AWTP, which will also
allow the additional use of a new raw water source
from the Olympic Well Field. This advanced treatment
will require additional treatment processes, including
UV-AOP and granulated activated carbon (GAC), to
remove several contaminants found in the well water.

This work will also require additional yard piping and
electrical upgrades within the boundaries of the
AWTP. Another major component of this project is the
upgrade and expansion of the AWTP to increase the
current reverse osmosis treatment system’s overall
recovery to 90% by using new flow reversal (FFRO)
technology. The overall goal is to increase raw water
treatment efficiency and capacity from reversal
gallons per day (MGD) to 13 MGD while maximizing
local water supplies and reducing reliance on
imported water supplies. Appurtenant electrical and
control systems additions and upgrades are also part
of these plant modifications. MNS is providing
construction inspection and teamed with Z&K to
provide these services.

5. Proposed Method to Accomplish the Work
5A. Project Understanding
After review of the RFP, city agendas, City website resources, bidding records, submitted proposals and other details we could procure, MNS understands the Grand Well and Treatment Plant Project represents a key infrastructure initiative aimed at addressing the City’s long-term water system needs—particularly emergency flow capacity through maximizing the new well’s full 2500 GPM, and to provide system relief by balancing out the City’s water sourcing to limiting use of pumping of water from the eastern wells. Treatment design was engaged to provide iron and manganese removal and to address taste, color, and odor of the extracted well water. This project began with replacement of the existing Grand Well, built in
1992. This effort found its funding through the
American Rescue Plan Act of 2021 and the
Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act of 2021 and
led to the completion of the Grand Well drilled in
2022 by Yellow Jack Drilling. However, the project
timelines were impacted due to the necessary
reallocations of funding to prioritize the Bath Well
Treatment Plant Design and Construction. The
Project continued along into design after Council
acceptance of Civiltec on December 5, 2023, and
additional funding sources were identified to
complete the Grand Well facilities. The design
contract schedule anticipated a target date of the
bidding release of July 24, 2024; however, the
construction RFP was not released until February
2, 2025 with subsequent City Council approval on
April 15, 2025, awarding these efforts to Pacific
Hydrotech, who is currently building the Bath Well
Treatment Plant Design and Construction. The
contractor Notice-to-Proceed (NTP) for construction
of the Project was Issued July 1, 2025. Total
construction duration, as understood by the
construction schedule provided within the RFP, has
commenced in July and is anticipated to run to
January 2027. The detailed construction duration in
total is anticipated to be 400 working days.

City of San Jacinto

Construction of Grand Treatment Plant and Equipping of Grand Well PAGE 16
Regarding project site specifics, the project includes construction of a new welded steel clarifier tank, well equipping, installation of owner procured Pureflow treatment system, new fabricated steel treatment enclosure building, fabricated hypochlorite system, new generator, site piping and electrical, and demolition and removal of prior equipment and structures. It is understood that the existing site’s treatment equipment and clarifier tank are currently offline and pose no operationally intensive impact for removal. The existing tank, booster station, and generator, however, are critical items that must be sequenced properly and performed within strict timelines.
5B. Project Keys
Quick Start As was communicated within the on-site pre-proposal meeting, the City is looking to expeditiously have the contract issued to have the construction management begin. Our team will work to coordinate with the City and contractor to strike off as many open items to bring the project back towards the contractor’s included schedule.

Additionally, it was communicated that the contractor was already issuing submittals which, at the time of onboarding, may be nearly 30 days in queue for review. We assume that most of these submittals are Pacific Hydrotech’s critical long lead procurement items. Given that the Design Engineer included engineering services during construction in Task 5 of their proposal (refer to Civiltec’s design proposal scope), we would highly recommend having the EOR begin the process of review while selections are made. Document control regarding these items can be handled at a later date, during onboarding of the CM consultant.

Contractor Sequencing
and Procurement
Our team will connect at the start of the project to coordinate with the contractor for an updated schedule and clear timelines for the long lead procurement items. These start with physically received purchase orders indicating the manufacturer’s production timelines. Once these are provided and the updated schedule is received, we will look to review discrepancies.

Per the demolition plan, the contractor is to provide a clear sequencing plan that minimizes downtime of the site operations. These efforts are not detailed on the schedule. Once submitted, we will coordinate with the Operations staff to determine the acceptability of such tasks before any activities on-site begin.

Electrical and Power
Equipment Lead Times
We have found that without a
purchase order and submitted and
reviewed shop drawings, the
timeline for the critical electrical
equipment is generally
underestimated by the contractor.

We are hopeful that the contractor
has achieved their due diligence;
however, the City should be ready
City of San Jacinto
Construction Management Services for
Construction of Grand Treatment Plant and Equipping of Grand Well PAGE 17
for potential delivery of up to 18 months from the time the supplier is released to perform procurement and construction of the equipment (generally after review of submittal). The highest priority discussions at the time of the project start will be for these items: MCC, switchboard, MPZ-100, and generator. Should there be delays, we will look to work with the contractor on how they plan to mitigate the impacts of such delays and continue with the site improvements and work onsite to make all things ready for receipt of this equipment.

Coordination of 2MG
Tank and Existing
Booster Shutdown
Plans
It is not uncommon for these plans to become an afterthought to contractors when the priority is to keep crews busy and to keep work moving onsite.

Reviewing the contractor’s schedule, there are no line items for critical efforts such as the shutdown requirements for the site. Per the contract, the shutdown of the tank necessitates a two-week advance notice, and a limitation of four hours. In addition, the contractor appears to have these efforts aligned to occur during August of 2026. The plans specifically call for work to be limited to the winter months during low demand.

There is, however, a bit of conflict
between the notes on Page C7/Note 3
and that of the plan page C2/Demolition Phasing Note 3, as plant page C7 does not call for limiting the
work to four-hour windows. We will work
with the City operations team prior to
beginning these discussions with the
contractor prior to mobilization, as it is
highly likely they may desire to rearrange their schedule to accommodate these efforts sooner rather than later as intended.

Coordination with
Edison
The plans indicated that the process for site power turnover is to keep the existing service in place prior to tie over and start-up of the new electrical power. We will look to work with the City and the contractor to coordinate with Edison if this is an acceptable option, as we have found Edison does not typically like to provide an interim condition of two live services for a singular site requiring only one metered service. If such an option is not feasible, we will work with the contractor to coordinate alternative options for site power for interim conditions.

Pre-Fabricated
Products
There are a few prefabricated assemblies for the project in addition to the typical power equipment. These items additionally can have very long lead times from the design, production, and assembly process. Additionally, it is not uncommon for these assemblies to have the majority of all requested deviations on a project, which will generally lead to delays in the submittal process. Therefore, it will be critical for our team to understand where these items are in the process of submission, and to expedite them to the position of procurement.

City of San Jacinto
Construction Management Services for
Construction of Grand Treatment Plant and Equipping of Grand Well PAGE 18
Owner Procured
Materials
In the pre-proposal meeting, it was detailed that the owner-procured materials would be ready for receipt come this October and November. This is great news, and generally, such expeditious delivery before construction is not common. We are hopeful that Pureflow’s timelines remain on track.

Given such early delivery, we will ensure the contractor is clear that they have received all necessary parts with the delivery at the time of arrival and take the necessary measures to protect and secure the materials onsite.

Additionally, we will look to coordinate another review a few months prior to installation to confirm no materials were displaced during the time awaiting installation.

Availability of Asphalt
Cutbacks
We have provided CM services for a few recent welded tank projects. Most of these projects required a different mixture of oil sand that did not include either an SC250 or SC70 cutback. One of the recent projects required these cutbacks for prime coating for the asphalt concrete paving; however, we were unable to have these cutbacks provided as refinery availability for production, given the product’s undesirable environmental characteristics, hindered provision. We will look to address this early in the project to clarify that these impacts are no longer of concern. If they are, we will coordinate with the City and the EOR for an alternative.

Pump-to-Waste
Capacity
At 2500 GPM, the capacity of
the sludge drying pit may be
limited to facilitate contractual
flushing/ pumping to waste of
the well. We estimate that the
current timeline to fill would be
around 35 minutes.

Subsequently, testing will also
be dependent on percolation rate. This may introduce another factor to consider. We will work with the City and contractor prior to getting to these efforts to determine the best route forward.

Wire Mesh Screen
Between Flange
Eventually, the
existing 2MG
tank will require
a recoat to
extend the life of
the tank in
excess of that
intended at the
isolated inlet
and outlet of this
project. We
have observed where blast media found its way into the tank overflow.

Subsequently, this material was trapped by the mesh, hindering overflow.

Luckily, at this particular tank, the mesh was banded to the exterior of the pipe and the mesh pulled away from the water pressure. However, in the City of San Jacinto
Construction Management Services for
Construction of Grand Treatment Plant and Equipping of Grand Well PAGE 19
orientation of the tank here, this type of occurrence would lead to very poor outcomes. Although this occurrence was solely the product of the contractor’s errors, such an occurrence would fall upon the City to address when the risk would be easy to mitigate. As such, we would recommend reconsidering this outlet orientation, or at a minimum, accounting for this grate and its need for removal prior to any recoating.

Concrete Encasement
of PTW Pipe
We have performed a few plant work operations where we have encountered significant impacts to plant modifications incurred by large encasements poured beyond the limits necessary. We will work with the contractor to ensure the limits do not go beyond what is necessary for the project.

Epoxy Anchorage
Deviations
We have worked with a few
pump and well companies that
have attempted to deviate from
the anchorage requirements as
stipulated within the plans.

Often, epoxy is requested
because of the generally
reduced effort to install;
however, this is not advised as
from our experience, the epoxy
anchor ESR reports do not
provide clear provisions of the
acceptability of this anchorage
method under vibration loading. We will remind the contractor that contract requirements will be enforced regarding the type of anchors.

Coordination of
Recycling of Waste
Concrete and Asphalt
The contract documents (Plan Page C-3, Compaction Notes) include provisions for the recycling of removed concrete and asphalt concrete that are part of the project. It is unclear if the contractor is anticipating such requirements from the schedule; however, we will work with the City and the contractor with the desired location of this materials application and ensure the contractor is compliant.

Location of
Downspouts
The steel building details indicated that the downspouts are to be placed at the north; however, there are man doors located at both these locations, with site drainage detailed to flow from north to south. We would recommend relocation of these downspouts to the south to mitigate storm flowing across the path of access to the electrical room/interior of the treatment building.

Bollards outside of RollUp DoorsDetail I14/A10 shows bollards desired to be placed outside the jambs of the roll-up
overhead doorways six inches from the wall
face. Detail A1/S6 would appear to show the
footings eight inches below the surface and
thus would be in the way of such an
installation. However, the layout plan (S1)
shows these outside the building pier
foundations. Details generally govern layout
plans, so it will be important to clearly detail that the layout with the bollards outside the footing below is the proper location.
5C. The MNS Approach
MNS provides proven professional
construction management techniques that
support the safe construction of a highquality project delivered on time and within budget. This is achieved by establishing
systems and procedures that promote
effective project controls. The MNS
Construction Manager (CM) will facilitate
communication among all parties regarding roles and responsibilities, including the City (project management and operations), the Design Engineer, Pacific Hydrotech, and the MNS Team.

Time Management
Time management uses scheduling to accurately manage and track the restrictive elements of time and resources throughout the project. A properly developed, implemented, and maintained schedule is a critical management tool. MNS will review the contractor’s baseline schedule to ensure it is accurate and reasonable. Activity durations and logic ties will be examined for accuracy and constructability. The earned value approach will be utilized to manage the progress of the contractor to achieve the project schedule milestones.

Our team has extensive experience in dealing with changes from unforeseen conditions, owner-initiated changes, and other types of delays. We will require the contractor to submit a time impact analysis for any issue with the potential to delay the overall progress of the work, and we will seek ways to mitigate the delay as the first course of action. The MNS team will strive to foster an ongoing positive working relationship between the team members to facilitate creative solutions to time management concerns.

Information Management – Procore
Proper information flow is crucial to the success of a project. A construction project generates a large amount of information which must be promptly disseminated to all parties. The source of this information will cover the full spectrum, including contracts, meeting minutes, drawings and Construction management tools utilized to meet
project objectives include Time Management,
Information Management, Cost Management,
QA/QC, and Contractor Management.

City of San Jacinto
Construction Management Services for
Construction of Grand Treatment Plant and Equipping of Grand Well PAGE 21
specifications, submittals, requests for information (RFIs), pay requests, invoices, inspection reports, and so forth. MNS has successfully used Procore on prior projects, has team members familiar with its terminology and procedures, and will quickly implement the City’s procedures at the onset of the project.

MNS, as your CM, will act as the hub for the management of all information flow, including document control using Procore project management software. Documents include letters, memoranda, submittals, RFIs, meeting minutes, drawings, and any other data transmitted electronically or by mail. MNS has extensive experience providing web-based document management solutions.

Our approach to information management also
includes building a communication framework to
continually foster partnering and teamwork
relationships for all the project stakeholders; the
key component is holding regular project
progress meetings. MNS builds this framework
from the start of the project with an all-inclusive
kick-off meeting where the lines of
communication and project responsibilities will be
clearly explained to all project stakeholders.

Cost Management
MNS will take the lead to ensure a cost management system is properly implemented and maintained. MNS’ cost management role will be twofold: 1) MNS will track the value of the completed work to ensure accurate and detailed monthly progress billing by the contractor; and 2) MNS will proactively manage the change order process. The Procore cost management module will be utilized for budget management, potential change orders (PCOs), field orders, contract change orders (CCOs), and monthly invoice billings reviews.

Each month, our CM will review and approve the updated cost-loaded CPM and verify that work activities and material deliveries are assigned the correct completion percentage by the contractor. If necessary, the contractor will revise and resubmit the schedule of values. This process ensures the Owner is accurately billed for the completed work each month.

Quality Assurance and Quality Control
MNS is experienced in all aspects of quality management and understands our role in providing quality assurance to help the City receive a high-quality finished product. While the contractor is responsible for quality control, the MNS observation team will monitor work to verify conformance with project specifications and industry standards. Quality issues will be addressed as they occur in the field, with follow-up and resolution tracked through ongoing communication and during weekly progress meetings.

MNS will review the contractor’s quality control procedures for adequacy, and a deficiencies and corrective items list will be maintained and updated regularly based on the contractor’s progress.

Contractor Management
MNS has experience using a variety of webbased document management platforms. For example, we have successfully used Procore
to support document control on several multimillion dollar public works projects, including pipeline installations, new treatment plant
construction, and retrofit projects.

City of San Jacinto
Construction Management Services for
Construction of Grand Treatment Plant and Equipping of Grand Well PAGE 22
MNS has executed numerous construction projects and has worked with a wide range of contractors to successfully deliver them. We are currently working with and have worked with Pacific Hydrotech on several projects and are familiar with their operations, management style, and field approach. In addition, we have worked directly with several of their key subcontractors, including Best Drilling and Crosno Construction, further strengthening our understanding of their broader project teams.

Even highly capable contractors can face challenges when their subcontractors or suppliers fall behind or struggle with documentation and coordination. These delays, especially with long-lead materials or complex scopes, can hinder progress and lead to administrative bottlenecks. Our team understands how to navigate these dynamics and maintain focus on delivering a quality project.

These outcomes begin with clearly defined scopes, plans, and specifications that reduce ambiguity during construction. We also recognize that the management style of a contractor’s on-site leadership, whether collaborative or confrontational, can significantly influence project outcomes. With this in mind, MNS uses a team-oriented approach to build trust and foster synergy, which often results in fewer claims and more successful projects.

The City utilizes Procore extensively to manage its projects. MNS, as well as the contractor, are expected to do the same to promote efficiency and transparency. MNS will monitor and enforce all Procore-related requirements to support consistent project documentation and communication. 5D. Project Scope
MNS has reviewed and understands the City’s construction management requirements for this important project.

Task 1. Coordination between the City, Project Stakeholders, and the Contractor MNS will provide comprehensive coordination services to ensure seamless execution of all construction activities among the Project Engineers, treatment equipment manufacturer, general contractor (Pacific Hydrotech), subcontractors, the City, and other relevant stakeholders. Coordination efforts will be focused on maintaining alignment across the project team, minimizing disruptions, and ensuring timely and efficient decision-making throughout the duration of the project.

MNS will serve as the central point of contact for all construction-related communications and will oversee the alignment of project work with contract documents, scheduled milestones, and field operations. To support this, MNS will actively manage interface points between trades and disciplines, facilitate daily collaboration between construction crews and technical support personnel, and monitor field activities to identify and resolve conflicts early.

Project coordination will include review and monitoring of sequencing and phasing plans, tracking critical dependencies between vendors and trades, and ensuring lead times for long-lead equipment are understood and incorporated into the construction schedule. This coordination will be informed by regular review of the Contractor’s schedule and three-week look-aheads, which will be discussed during the proposed weekly City of San Jacinto
Construction Management Services for
Construction of Grand Treatment Plant and Equipping of Grand Well PAGE 23
construction meetings. MNS will also coordinate directly with the City and its operations staff to mitigate any impacts to plant operations or access during construction.

To ensure issues are promptly addressed, MNS will initiate coordination meetings as needed between the contractor, City representatives, and subject matter experts, including the treatment equipment manufacturer, to resolve field issues, clarify design intent, and support timely procurement and installation of materials. MNS will track all coordination-related action items, assignments, and deadlines through the Procore platform, ensuring full transparency for the City and project team members.

In conjunction with other related tasks (e.g., document control, materials testing, change management), MNS will integrate these coordination services to support a responsive, well-organized construction management process and maintain clear communication channels throughout the project duration.

Task 2. Document Control
Procore
We understand the City, along with Pacific Hydrotech, use the Procore project management software extensively to manage its capital projects and it is understood that this project will adopt the Procore application for our use during the project. MNS will utilize the Procore platform to coordinate, review, upload, and access all construction-related documents, including RFIs, RFQs, submittals, shop drawings, inspection reports, change orders, and photos.

MNS will document all relevant project communication and promptly distribute it to the City and applicable parties using Procore web-based project management software (furnished by the City or contractor).

Throughout the project, MNS will maintain accurate records of all project documentation using various modules of Procore. We will furnish all original project documents and final project reports to the City within 30 calendar days following the filing of the notice of completion for the project. These documents and reports can also be furnished in electronic format on flash drives at the conclusion of the project to the City, if desired. At the start of the project, MNS will develop a communications matrix to clearly define who needs to receive specific information and the timing for those communications.

Procore includes logs for tracking both submittals and RFIs. All submittals and RFIs will be tracked and discussed at the progress meetings with the contractor to ensure each issue is resolved quickly. MNS will monitor the logs and coordinate with the City as needed to ensure a timely response to RFIs and submittals.

RFI and Submittal Review
One of the most critical aspects of successfully managing a construction project requires the timely review and processing of submittals and responses to RFIs. MNS understands, per the RFP Q&A, that the City expects the CM to facilitate these responses. We also recognize that the EOR’s Grand Well Design proposal (dated October 25 and approved December 5, 2023) includes submittal and RFI support under Task 5 for Construction Support.

City of San Jacinto
Construction Management Services for
Construction of Grand Treatment Plant and Equipping of Grand Well PAGE 24
To maximize value for the City, MNS will minimize EOR involvement where feasible. However, if the City prefers the engineer to continue providing this support through our team, we see value of streamlining such reviews along with the preservation of CM budget, should contract timelines persist beyond January of 2027.

Regardless, MNS will collaborate with the
contractor to prioritize critical submittals and
RFIs and seek early input from the City on
such priority submittals and long lead items.

Acting as the gatekeeper, we will ensure
responses align with contract intent. When
further input is needed, we’ll coordinate with
the City to limit EOR involvement. If EOR
input becomes necessary, we will consult the
City before proceeding.

MNS will also work with the City and Design Engineer to issue any major design changes or clarifications needed to resolve technical issues.

MNS Assumes:
• Review of up to 71 total submittals, including resubmittals, based on the contractor’s schedule. Our review will be limited to contract conformance only. We assume all technical reviews will be performed by the City or EOR and are therefore not included in our fee. A 10-working-day turnaround is assumed, excluding City or EOR review time if required.
• No more than 20 total RFIs shall be submitted by the contractor. MNS assumes no technical review to be necessary and that review will be solely in conformance with the contract requirements or EOR/City issued changes - thus no deviations, substitutions, or ”or-equals” will be reviewed. Time for review is assumed to be five working days and does not include City or EOR review time, should it be necessary.

Optional Service:
• During our conversations with Procore,
we were informed Pacific Hydrotech
currently holds an active Procore license
for this project. Based on that information,
we have assumed shared access will be
provided directly through the contractor,
which would mitigate the need for the City
to procure its own license. However,
should the City require separate licensing,
we have obtained project-specific pricing
from Procore. Please refer to the Fee Schedule for a breakdown of these services. The proposed rates include a one-time training session, which City staff are welcome to attend virtually.

Potential Savings: MNS sees potential savings
in either direction if the City desires the EOR to
provide their services from Task 5 of the design
contract, or should the City determine to not use
this previously allocated funding and in lieu have
the CM prioritize the review.

Potential Savings: Based on our discussions
with Procore, the MNS team was informed that
joint access to the platform can be provided
through the contractor’s existing license. This
presents a potential cost savings opportunity for
the City by avoiding overlapping licensing fees.

City of San Jacinto
Construction Management Services for
Construction of Grand Treatment Plant and Equipping of Grand Well PAGE 25
‒ Alternatively, MNS can provide access to our own proprietary CMIS web-based service at no cost to the project.

Task 3. Materials Testing (Geotechnical and Concrete)
MNS will perform general observation on the job site for materials and workmanship as indicated with Task 6.

The additional responsibilities include disallowing any deviations from the contract documents unless proper approvals have been obtained from the City and/or EOR, verifying only conforming materials are incorporated into the work, and scheduling required materials testing.

MNS, with and through our materials testing subconsultant, LandMark, will be responsible for quality assurance material and soil sampling, field analysis, and laboratory testing as noted in the contract documents. MNS will coordinate these services with LandMark to ensure the materials incorporated into the project meet the specified requirements. We will upload and share all materials testing reports with the City on Procore.

MNS Assumes:
• Specialty inspections beyond Geotechnical Observation and Testing and Concrete Observation, Collection, and Testing are not to be provided as per the clarifications detailed within the Q&A. However, LandMark is fully fit to provide such inspections if desired by the City. • Services included within our scope and fee include:
‒ Rough grading observation and testing
‒ Compaction testing of trenches, C&G, subgrade and basegrade, driveway approaches and sidewalk ‒ Concrete inspection, including onsite inspection of the reinforcement, and collection and testing of concrete cylinders
‒ 3 maximum density/optimum moisture tests will be performed. ‒ 25 concrete cylinders are assumed to be collected and tested. ‒ 20 half-time and 10 full-time site visits by a Soil Technician, and 10 full-time ICC concrete inspections ‒ Visits to site are subject to a two-hour surcharge for the respective staff assigned ‒ A two-hour minimum will be charged for all field work and thereafter in four-hour increments ‒ No night work is assumed. Requests for night work will be subject to the availability of personnel, will require no less than five working days’ notice, and will be charged at premium time of no less than

1.5x the standard rate and that required by law.

Value-Added Optional Service:

MNS has included an optional service for coating inspection for the tanks, covering both field and shop operations, which we recommend the City consider incorporating into the project. Coating inspection is a common practice for tank installations, as it helps ensure long-term performance, protects structural integrity, and verifies compliance with specifications during both fabrication and on-site application. This level of oversight is particularly valuable for welded steel tanks, where shop-applied coatings must meet strict quality City of San Jacinto
Construction Management Services for
Construction of Grand Treatment Plant and Equipping of Grand Well PAGE 26
standards before delivery to the field. We have experience working with Crosno Construction, the tank subcontractor identified in the proposal, and understand the importance of verifying coating quality at both their facility and during field operations. Please refer to the attached Fee Schedule for detailed costs related to this optional service.

Task 4. Meetings
MNS will schedule regular and ad hoc project meetings. MNS will develop the agenda and meeting minutes to have a written record of any agreements and action items. A list of anticipated routine meetings expected during this project includes the following:
• Internal Kick-Off: Immediately after receiving a CM contract NTP, MNS will hold an internal kick-off meeting with all key stakeholders to go over project goals and key intermediate milestones to meet the project cost, quality, and schedule objectives.
‒ MNS assumes a single one-hour virtual recorded meeting attended by the Construction Manager and Observer.
• Pre-Construction: This is one of the most comprehensive meetings and is held with all key project stakeholders and the contractor immediately after the award of the construction contract. It covers scope, plant operations disruptions, submittal procedures, bonds and insurance, certified payroll verification, safety, invoicing, and associated forms and/or software to be utilized throughout the project. MNS will develop the agenda with City concurrence and will lead the conference as well as develop the meeting minutes for the team.
‒ MNS assumes a single hour and a half virtual recorded meeting attended by the Construction Manager, Technical Support and Labor Compliance.
• Weekly Construction Meetings: This important weekly meeting includes MNS, the City, Design Engineer, contractor, and its main subconsultants/subcontractors and will address the day-to-day issues on- and off-site, including procurement issues. MNS develops the agenda, leads the meeting, and distributes the minutes. At this meeting, the schedule, permitting, scope changes, submittals, safety, onsite coordination, and logistic issues will be addressed. The contractor will also review the three-week look-ahead schedule with the team.
‒ MNS assumes up to 75 one-hour virtual progress meetings. These meetings will be recorded and attended by the Construction Manager. Technical support staff are assumed to participate in no more than 16 of these meetings. Additionally, MNS assumes up to four one-hour onsite meetings, to be held during the Observer’s scheduled half-time shift. The Observer will attend meetings the first week of Mobilization.
‒ MNS assumes four such one-hour meetings on-site by the Construction Manager and Observer. The time of meeting will be during the Observer’s half-time shift on-site.

Task 5. Contractor’s Construction Schedule Review
MNS anticipates the general schedule included in this proposal, adapted from the contractor’s schedule provided within the RFP, will serve as the framework for core project milestones and guide our construction management services. As part of our role in supporting the City’s requirement to maintain the master City of San Jacinto
Construction Management Services for
Construction of Grand Treatment Plant and Equipping of Grand Well PAGE 27
construction schedule, MNS will monitor, review, and evaluate the contractor’s baseline schedule and subsequent updates to help keep the project aligned with overall goals.

The Monthly Progress Report, prepared by MNS, will include the current schedule status, identifying any activities on the critical path and noting risks to milestone completion. Should delays arise, we will request detailed recovery plans from the contractor and assist the City in evaluating the adequacy of proposed adjustments. MNS will also assess productivity trends and sequencing to help identify any early warning signs of schedule slippage.

We understand that contractors typically utilize scheduling platforms such as Microsoft Project or Primavera P6, and our team is experienced in interpreting and analyzing these tools. While the contractor is responsible for maintaining their construction schedule, MNS will provide timely reviews and recommendations to the City in support of keeping the overall master schedule on track.

As noted in the “Project Keys” section of the Approach, we have already completed a cursory review of the contractor’s schedule included with the RFP and identified several items requiring immediate attention. Prior to mobilization, we will work with both the City and the contractor to resolve these inconsistencies and develop a coordinated approach that sets the project on solid footing from the outset.

Task 6. Construction Observation
MNS’ CM and our observation subconsultant, Z&K, will enforce all contractual requirements of the scope performed by the contractor. Z&K’s seasoned construction observers will proactively monitor the quality and conformance of the work during construction to minimize any non-compliant activities whenever feasible.

Recognizing that construction can involve unforeseen tasks or short-notice schedule changes, MNS and Z&K have proactively arranged for additional local observers to ensure adequate coverage and meet the project’s observation needs.

MNS understands the value of photo documentation and will utilize it for the City’s benefit in any disputes and claims against the contractor. Our inspectors will document the construction progress daily. These project progress photos will be uploaded to Procore for easy project stakeholder access.

MNS Assumes:

To provide the City with efficient and cost-effective field support, half-time (maximum of four hours per day including portal-to-portal) construction observation will be provided from mobilization (November 7, 2025) through project closeout (January 21, 2027) – a total of 300 working days. This flexible, part-time observation model is structured to meet project needs while maintaining budget discipline. Any site visits that conclude without requiring further inspection or are canceled same-day will be billed at a minimum of four hours.

This approach represents another value-add for the City, as it allows for targeted observation during critical construction activities without the cost of full-time, on-site staffing. To support this model, MNS has teamed with Z&K—a trusted partner with the right staff geographically located to provide responsive and reliable observation services. Z&K’s proximity and availability help us ensure timely support while maximizing City of San Jacinto
Construction Management Services for
Construction of Grand Treatment Plant and Equipping of Grand Well PAGE 28
efficiency and minimizing unnecessary travel costs. Their familiarity with local practices and our successful history of collaboration further strengthens our ability to deliver a high-quality project outcome. All costs associated with cancellations with less than one working day’s notice provided by the contractor will be paid for by the contractor but billed through the consultant contract to the City.

Value Added Optional Service:
• MNS has included an optional service available to the City of Shop and Coating Observation. Please refer to the attached Fee and associated resumes.
• As part of our proposed approach for the Grand Treatment Plant and Equipping of Grand Well Project , MNS is offering part-time construction observation, which we believe is the most appropriate and costeffective solution given the scope, duration, and nature of the work. While full-time inspection services are available if requested by the City, our experience suggests that part-time observation is the preferred and most efficient course for this type of project. We are currently working with Pacific Hydrotech on another project where part-time inspection is being successfully implemented. This model provides the flexibility to monitor key construction activities while managing costs and resources effectively. Should the project conditions change or the City prefer full-time observation, our team is fully capable of adjusting staffing to meet that need.

Task 7. Site Maintenance and Best Management Practices
As part of its CM responsibilities, MNS will monitor the implementation of required Best Management Practices (BMPs) to ensure compliance with the project's environmental obligations, including California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) requirements and the approved Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP). MNS will compile the documented observations, maintain compliance records, and communicate any corrective actions required to the contractor and the City to ensure continued environmental compliance throughout the project duration.

MNS Assumes:
• SWPPP creation, monitoring, and uploading will be provided by others. • MNS assumes the contractor is solely responsible for compliance with the SWPPP, including the installation, maintenance, inspection, and reporting of all BMPs. • MNS will not be responsible for preparing, certifying, updating, or amending the SWPPP or any CEQArelated documentation or permits. • MNS assumes the SWPPP and all CEQA mitigation measures have been fully approved by the City and applicable regulatory agencies prior to the start of construction. • MNS will not be liable for any enforcement actions, penalties, or violations related to SWPPP compliance, CEQA mitigation measures, or environmental permit conditions. • MNS will not perform sampling, laboratory analysis, or water quality testing. Any such services, if required, must be contracted separately.

City of San Jacinto
Construction Management Services for
Construction of Grand Treatment Plant and Equipping of Grand Well PAGE 29
• MNS assumes no archaeological, cultural resource, or biological monitoring responsibilities unless explicitly directed by the City through a separate agreement.

Task 8. Reports
MNS will provide all key project stakeholders with weekly working day statements (WDS) detailing general project progress, milestones accomplished since the last report, challenges, and interface coordination points needing assistance. Risks are monitored and discussed for what the project team must do to minimize negative risk impacts. The City and MNS can discuss the format and deliverables during the internal kick-off meeting.

At the onset of construction, Each MNS Inspector is required to submit an inspector’s daily report to document the work being performed, labor and equipment, materials, item quantities, and significant conversations or events. The MNS CM will review these reports to ensure accuracy and will have the subject daily reports uploaded to Procore within three business days for project stakeholder access.

MNS Assumes:
• 77 WDS will be provided as per the times set forth by the contract. • Daily reports will be provided by the Construction Observers for efforts performed onsite and will be provided in digital format only.
• Procore will serve as the onsite repository for all construction documentation for project stakeholder access.

Task 9. Project Cost Control and Certified Payroll
Cash flow is the lifeline of the contractor. For the contractor to execute the job effectively, they must be paid on a timely basis, yet too many contractors do not submit their monthly invoices on time. Beginning with a proper schedule of values (not allowing the contractor to front-load it), MNS will work closely with the contractor to ensure timely monthly progress payments.

Aaron will work with our construction observers to evaluate the actual work completed during the previous billing period before recommending payment approval to the City. Extra work and supplemental work costs will be tracked and compared against the authorized change order amounts.

MNS will monitor and update the status of the project costs and budget throughout the project. MNS will track and monitor the actual construction costs of a project including contract item payments and quantities, contract change orders, and extra work. The project contingency balance will be verified as part of the monthly progress pay estimate review.

MNS will additionally provide certified payroll in accordance with the RFP requirements. The following defines the task that will be performed to meet such requirements:

9.1 Pre-Construction Services
City of San Jacinto
Construction Management Services for
Construction of Grand Treatment Plant and Equipping of Grand Well PAGE 30
Pre-Construction Meeting. MNS will attend/participate in a pre-construction meeting to present local State Labor Compliance requirements to contractors of all tiers. MNS will also obtain signatures from contractors to confirm they have been informed of the project’s compliance requirements and forms. This may be in the form of a sign-in sheet or a confirmation form that MNS will create and utilize with the City’s approval.

Prior to the meeting and with the City’s approval, MNS will create a Labor Compliance Reporting packet that contains all applicable Federal and State Labor Compliance documents. This package will provide a detailed explanation of each form and instructions on how to complete it and when to submit. Also, MNS will acquire the City’s approval to include language in the Compliance Reporting Packet that no lower tier subcontractors shall be allowed to work without timely notification to the City and verification of contractor eligibility. The categories of documents to be included in the Welcome Package include:

I. First-Time One-Time Documents
II. During Construction Documents – weekly, monthly and if applicable, quarterly III. Close-Out Labor Compliance Documents

9.2 Construction Phase Services
Certified Payroll Reporting. MNS will request, obtain and review weekly payrolls from each contractor on the project; this will include all lower tier subcontractors. MNS will ensure payrolls have been properly completed and reflect correct information such as trade/classification and group/period number, appropriate wage rates, fringe benefits, and deductions.

MNS will ensure all contractors are employing and working apprentices in ratios that conform to the apprenticeship regulations. From each apprentice reported on payroll, documentation will be obtained to prove apprentices and trainees are registered with an approved apprenticeship program.

Site Visits. MNS will conduct verifications of contractors working onsite. We will keep a log of verifications to confirm all contractors are submitting labor compliance documents and payrolls. MNS will also conduct onsite craftworker interviews to ensure craftworkers believe they are being paid the appropriate wage rate and fringe benefits for their trade/classification. MNS will conduct follow-up interviews with the same craftworkers to confirm the wages/fringes being paid are no less than the applicable wage determination. MNS will ensure at least 10% of each contractor’s work crew for each trade is interviewed.

Status Report. MNS will provide a monthly Labor Compliance Status Report that will outline each contractor’s compliance status with the project. The report will contain detailed descriptions of contractors’ delinquencies, discrepancies (suspected violation), clearance of issues and recommendation for payment withhold for outstanding discrepancy/delinquencies. Withholding of payment will be recommended when a contractor fails to respond and submit documents in a timely manner.

MNS will provide reports to the City’s Project Manager and prime contractor. MNS will follow up with the prime contractor to discuss remedy of Labor Compliance issues and coordinate deadline to remedy issues.

MNS will provide a final Labor Compliance Report to the City’s Project Manager and prime contractor to confirm when all contractors have properly closed out their compliance requirements for the project.

City of San Jacinto
Construction Management Services for
Construction of Grand Treatment Plant and Equipping of Grand Well PAGE 31
Project Files. All written documentation provided by MNS for the purpose of Labor Compliance reporting to the City will be concise and organized in a manner that will be easily understood. All files related to the assigned project will be organized and ready to submit at the request from the City. The Labor Compliance files for projects will generally be organized as follows:
• First-time One-Time documents
‒ Worker’s Compensation Certification
‒ Certificate of Authorization and Understanding (authorized signer of payrolls and compliance documents)
‒ DAS 140 and 142 (for each trade that will be utilized for the project) with proof of transmittal ‒ Fringe Benefit Statement
• During Construction documents – weekly, monthly and quarterly (if applicable) ‒ Weekly Certified Payrolls with Statement of Compliance or Statement of Non-Performance with DIR eCPR confirmation
‒ Apprenticeship Certificate (State certificate for each new apprentice reported on payroll) ‒ Authorization for Payroll Deduction (for each new deduction reported on payroll for each craftworker) ‒ Revised payrolls with proof of restitution payment and Confirmation of Receiving Restitution signed by affected craftworker
‒ Monthly Apprenticeship Training Funds Report with proof of payment ‒ Monthly Labor Compliance Reports (sorted in date descending order) ‒ Craftworker Interview forms
‒ Conditional and Unconditional Lien Releases
• Close-Out Labor Compliance documents
‒ Final Certified Payroll with Statement of Compliance or Statement of Non-Performance with DIR eCPR confirmation
‒ Apprenticeship Declaration (signed by contractor to certify that all apprentice hours reported on payrolls are true and conformed to the apprenticeship regulations) ‒ Final Labor Compliance Certificate (signed by the contractor to certify that all compliance documents and payrolls submitted to the City are true and correct) LCP Tracker and Other File Upload Website. If LCP Tracker is provided by the City or the prime contractor, MNS will utilize the online submittal portal as MNS is very experienced in navigating the website. MNS is also experienced in using Elations and QuickBase. We will download all documents from the website to review and file into the project compliance files.

Electronic Submittal Process. For this project, MNS will share the company’s Box file sharing website and upload links. The Box website is secure and free of charge for contractors and the City to utilize. MNS will download each document from Box to review files into the Project Compliance files.

9.3 Post-Construction Services
City of San Jacinto
Construction Management Services for
Construction of Grand Treatment Plant and Equipping of Grand Well PAGE 32
Once the construction has been completed, MNS’ compliance staff will work with contractors to properly close out their Labor Compliance requirements for the project. If any issues arise during the time of compliance close-out, MNS will notify the City Project Manager and prime contractor. MNS will work with contractors to remedy issues and assist contractors to submit their final compliance documents in a timely manner.

Once the Labor Compliance files are complete, MNS will submit a request form for file review and schedule the meeting. At the file review meeting, MNS will present the Labor Compliance files and walk the auditor though the entire project and answer any questions. If the auditor requests any additional documentation, MNS will gather the information and submit it to the auditor for final file review approval. Once final approval is received, MNS will deliver the entire Labor Compliance files to the City by City’s desired method of delivery.

MNS will provide Labor Compliance monitoring in a manner that minimizes the demands placed on City staff.

In addition to Labor Compliance monitoring, MNS staff will make certain that all required agency reports are submitted to the appropriate agencies prior to their due dates to ensure compliance and timeliness.

MNS Assumes:
• 18 complete progress payment packages (progress payment estimate, all unconditional and conditional waivers) submissions and subsequent reviews with no resubmissions from the contractor. • The City has conducted and filed the contractor verifications at the time of project award (pre-construction phase). If the City wishes for MNS to conduct and file the contractor verification files, MNS can perform this service for additional fee.
• If the City receives a Request for Public Information, it is assumed the City will prepare the response. If the City wishes for MNS to prepare the response, MNS can perform this service for additional fee. • MNS will provide pre-construction meeting Labor Compliance notes or recordings, compliance reporting and onsite posting package to contractors, and applicable prevailing wage determination and booklet in electronic format to contractors.
• All labor compliance documentation will be uploaded by the contractor (or City) to its file repository system, Box.
• MNS will provide all compiled contractor files – originals with wet signature and in electronic format by online shared drive Box, craftworker interview forms, and Labor Compliance status reports. • MNS will provide one final Labor Compliance Status Report, and complete project files for closeout after the cessation of all work onsite. It is assumed the contractor will provide all documentation organized as necessary.
• The project is funded with local funds, such as CIP and direct bank loans. Project is subject to State Department of Industrial Relations (DIR) prevailing wage and State Labor Compliance. Project is not subject to Federal Funding Requirements.
• If LCP Tracker is provided, MNS will utilize the software program to maintain project compliance files.

Task 10. Change Order and Claims Review
City of San Jacinto
Construction Management Services for
Construction of Grand Treatment Plant and Equipping of Grand Well PAGE 33
As one of the highest priority CM tasks, potential claims and change orders will be reviewed and addressed by our CM. The MNS team will review the proposed change order entitlement and amount justified, if any, and make a specific recommendation to the City.

All CCOs must have a defined project scope of work and limits and comply with the project documents. Upon reaching an agreement of the change, a detailed scope, and independent cost analysis and time impact analysis will be prepared. This will form the basis for evaluating the contractor’s submitted costs and time impact analysis for the changed work and negotiating a change order with the contractor. Once finalized, MNS will compile the negotiated details on the City’s change order form, issue for signature, and will return to the City for execution and processing.

A discussion of changes and potential changes will be a key agenda item for the weekly coordination meetings with the contractor to ensure the proper monitoring for changed work and effective mitigation of impacts to the project. Any potential claims associated with changes to the work will be addressed before becoming actual claims. MNS will bring its lessons learned knowledge of resolving disputes and claims at the lowest level in the chain of command for the project.

MNS Assumes:
• Coordination and review of four complete contractor potential change orders with no requested revisions. • Coordination, review, and issuance upon City authorization of two CCOs with no requested revisions. • No project claims will be submitted by the contractor.

Task 11. Start-Up Coordination, Observation, and System Documents The contractor’s team of subcontractors, as well as equipment vendors, will provide startup assistance and training for the City operations staff. MNS’ Construction Observer will provide onsite observation of the testing, pre-final, and final stages of startup alongside the contractor’s representatives and City Operations team. As part of the project handover phase tasks, the contractor will provide the O&M Manuals to the City. MNS will review these O&M Manuals for the entire project to ensure they meet the contractual obligations. In addition, MNS will ensure the contractor has provided actual spare parts called for in the contract or a list suggesting the need for critical spare parts and normal spare parts and tracked in an agreed master list.

Task 12. Notice of Completion
Following confirmation from the City that all construction work has been satisfactorily completed and accepted, MNS will initiate the Notice of Completion (NOC) process. This begins with MNS preparing a draft NOC that includes all required project details such as the project title, contract number, location, contractor’s name, completion date, and a concise description of the work performed.

MNS will then submit the draft to City staff for review and approval. Once approved, MNS will coordinate with the appropriate City representative—typically the City Engineer or Director of Public Works—to obtain an authorized signature and notarization.

City of San Jacinto
Construction Management Services for
Construction of Grand Treatment Plant and Equipping of Grand Well PAGE 34
After notarization, MNS will proceed to record the NOC with the Riverside County Recorder’s Office electronically. Upon successful recording, MNS will obtain a certified copy of the recorded document and provide it to the City for its records. MNS will also document the official recording date, which initiates the statutory lien period, and notify the contractor and other relevant parties that the NOC has been filed. This process is included as part of the overall project closeout responsibilities managed by MNS.

MNS Assumes:
• The City will provide the authorized signature and notarization. • The City is an eRecording Vendor with the County of Riverside.

Task 13. Closeout
MNS understands the value of meticulous records and project information that ultimately will be handed over to the City for long-term use. MNS will ensure the contractor adequately addresses all closeout requirements such as equipment warranties, spare parts lists, record-set of drawings, and training are adequately addressed. MNS will determine when substantial completion is achieved (generally after beneficial use of water is achieved) and coordinate with the City to issue the notice of substantial completion if so desired.

MNS will develop a punch list for the work performed, distribute to the City’s operations team for concurrence, and subsequently notify the contractor, and re-inspect the completed work. A final walk-through of the project will be scheduled with the City, the contractor, and any other party the City may wish to attend (we anticipate Pureflow and the EOR). MNS will evaluate the contractor’s completion of work and make a final acceptance recommendation to the City.

MNS will prepare a final report detailing the work completed, costs, changes, warranties, and documentation provided to the City. The report will also include a section on future suggestions and lessons learned and an evaluation on overall performance. MNS will additionally provide a contractor evaluation on the City’s form, if so desired.

As per the construction contract terms, the contractor is required to maintain the latest set of plans and specifications on-site. MNS will ensure the contractor is recording any field modifications on the redline drawings during onsite observations; full-time construction observers will track and record as-built conditions.

At the conclusion of construction, the contractor will furnish to the City with the complete set of plans and specifications updated to reflect actual construction via Procore.

MNS Assumes:
• One project close-out report will be provided to the City in electronic format via Procore.

5E. Proposal Draft Schedule
From the schedule as provided by the contractor and included within the RFP, the below is an anticipated abbreviated draft schedule. From thorough review, our understanding is that this schedule will need to be revised and updated by the contractor to reflect secured procurement timelines, shutdown requirements, demolition sequencing, availability of temporary power, and testing/training requirements. Additionally, many of the contractor’s critical submittal dates are before or shortly thereafter the onboarding of the CM consultant, so impacts to the Critical Path should likely be anticipated by the City.

A one-mile, 24-inch pipeline extension was constructed
along Blosser Road to the Santa Maria River Levee,
where it was bored and jacked under the levee. The pipe then transitioned to a 30-inch high-density polyethylene (HDPE) pipe, which was installed 100 feet under the
riverbed by horizontal directional drilling (HDD). The new pump station construction included a booster pump
station; electrical system (including portable backup
generator); water chloramination system and
appurtenances; approximately 1,720 linear feet of access road to the pump station site; and 1,750 linear feet of 24- inch ductile iron pipe. The project was constructed within highly sensitive environmental habitat, which required
extensive surveying and coordination with permitting
agencies as well and the surrounding farmland owners.

Joshua Road Pump Station Reservoir, Nipomo
Community Services District, Nipomo, CA.

Construction Inspector. The $3M Joshua Road Pump
Station Reservoir project was phase 2 of the larger
Supplemental Water Project completed in 2016 for the
Nipomo Community Services District (District). Water
purchased by the District from the City of Santa Maria
and imported through the Supplemental Water Project
pipeline allowed the District to reduce pumping from its existing wells. Taking action to slow the depletion of
groundwater to reduce the potential for seawater
intrusion on the Nipomo Mesa was a shared
responsibility of all groundwater users on the basin. By providing an additional source of water other than
groundwater, this project increased the reliability and security of the community’s water supply. This project
constructed a 500,000 gallon, partially-buried concrete reservoir at the Joshua Road Pump Station. Additional
construction elements involved associated piping,
electrical, instrumentation, grading, and landscape
improvements. This project increased delivery capacity to at least 800-acre-feet-per-year and provided operational flexibility. MNS provided construction management
services.
