Subject: Proposal for Stabilization Project Construction, Engineering, and Compliance Management and Phase 2 Preconstruction Engineering and Management at the City of San Leandro Water Pollution Control Plant (WPCP) Former Polishing Pond, San Leandro, California
Dear Mr. Morehouse:

This proposal describes the scope of work and requested budget for Terraphase Engineering (Terraphase) to provide to the City of San Leandro (City) with engineering and construction support services for implementation of the City WPCP Treatment Wetland Project as defined in the following overview:

1. Engineering oversight/quality control, construction management, and State Water Resources Control Board (SWRCB) Stormwater Construction General Permit (CGP) compliance management during construction of the Phase 1 sludge-soil-cement stabilization and fill project (Stabilization Project) at the WPCP former polishing pond, as requested by the City during an April 18, 2025 project meeting.

2. Additional Engineering and Construction Management Support during preconstruction planning and procurement of the Phase 2 Treatment Wetland Construction Project (Phase 2) as discussed with the City in May 2025.

The Stabilization Project generally includes the following construction scope:

1. Demolition, clearing and grubbing, of the entire perimeter and surrounding working area of the former polishing pond.

2. Sludge-soil-cement stabilization of the former polishing pond sludge surface using soil from the on-site soil stockpile.

3. Import, placement, compaction, and grading of earth fill atop the stabilized pond surface to proposed final pond surface design elevation.

4. Installation of a temporary pond surface dewatering system.

Terraphase prepared Issued for Bid engineering design documents for the Stabilization Project and is supporting the City during construction bidding and procurement for the Phase 1 Stabilization Project. The City will serve as Owner of the project and hold all construction contracts, with Terraphase proposing to provide full engineering, construction quality assurance (QA), construction management (CM), and CGP compliance support during construction of the Stabilization Project.

Based on our deep knowledge of the project and sharing the City’s objectives of efficient and high-quality execution of the Stabilization Project, we have developed a “combined services” approach where an June 11, 2025

experienced core Terraphase team provides full engineering, construction QA, construction management, and CGP compliance management services. The Terraphase team includes team members with extensive project experience with experience developing the engineering design, specifications, and compliance strategy for the Stabilization Project and who have the experience and expertise to serve these multiple roles simultaneously, providing the City a unified point of contact when managing this project.

This proposal first describes Terraphase’s proposed overall management role and responsibilities during construction of the Stabilization Project, then organizes this scope of work into proposed Tasks 1-5, which are primarily organized by the following operational phases of the Stabilization Project:

1. Premobilization Phase

2. Mobilization/Site Setup Phase

3. Stabilization Phase

4. Fill Phase

5. Closeout Phase
This proposal includes CGP compliance during construction of the Stabilization Project as Task 6. The duration of the above phases of Stabilization Project is based on review of the schedule information provided in the provisionally awarded contractor’s proposal with allowances for minor schedule extension. The assumed duration of each phase is provided in the detailed scope descriptions for Tasks 1-5.

Task 7 of this proposal includes additional engineering and construction management support for the City to:
• Provide construction and contract management support during Phase 2 bidding and procurement, as Terraphase has provided during Stabilization Project bidding and procurement. • Provide a more extensive Phase 2 cost estimate update than the currently contracted update. • Provide engineering and coordination support with the City and others to integrate the Phase 2 instrumentation and controls (I&C) system into the WPCP I&C system. • Revise the design of the WPCP effluent tie-in valve as discussed with the City and facilitate a constructability review of the Phase 2 treatment wetland subgrade liner by a qualified contractor. • Revise and maintain the Phase 2 project schedule with additional detail and information as Phase 2 preconstruction planning and design updates progress.

Stabilization Project Engineering, Construction, and CGP Compliance Management Scope of Work
Terraphase will provide the following engineering, construction, and compliance management services through the duration of the Stabilization Project, from City Notice to Proceed through project closeout.

1. Set up and administer a Construction Management Information System (CMIS) using Procore, for the Stabilization Project to be used by the City, contractors, and Terraphase to manage project workflows and documentation.

2. Receive, manage/organize, review and approve construction contractor’s submittals as detailed in the project specifications. The proposed level of effort for submittal management assumes that all submittals can be approved and closed after a maximum of two revision and resubmittal iterations.

This task assumes a 2-week field duration and subsequent 2-week off-site duration for this phase of the Stabilization Project, based on review of the provisionally selected Contractor’s proposal. Terraphase will not be on-site during this phase other than as described above. If the Contractor’s actual construction schedule requires additional on-site oversight, Terraphase will confirm the additional effort with the City, including requesting additional budget if required.

As this task does not include full-time oversight for the full duration of this phase, the assumed level of effort for this task does not cover any additional required pre-, during-, or post-storm SWPPP BMP inspections during this phase if these are required when Terraphase staff are not already on site. This task does not include monthly CGP inspections after the site has been transitioned to Inactive status under the CGP, which would take place after completion of all Stabilization Project field activities and Terraphase demobilization from the site. If required, Terraphase will confirm the additional effort with the City, including potentially requesting additional budget.

Task 6: CGP SWPPP Reporting
Terraphase will complete and upload periodic Construction General Permit CGP compliance reports to the SWRCB’s Storm Water Multiple Application and Report Tracking System (SMARTS) throughout the Mobilization through Fill phases of the Stabilization Project.

During the Closeout phase of the Stabilization Project, Terraphase will prepare and submit a Change of Information (COI) in SMARTs for the site to go into inactive status after this first phase of construction is completed. This process includes the submittal of an updated site map and photo log approval from the RWQCB prior to the site being able to go to inactive status.

This task does not include development of the project SWPPP and CGP registration documents, which will be completed by Terraphase under a separate contract. The proposed Terraphase scope of work for periodic CGP compliance inspections performed during active construction operations are described in Tasks 2-5 above.

This task does not include Terraphase site inspections after the site transition to inactive status.

Task 7: Phase 2 Preconstruction Engineering and Management The scope of work for this task includes engineering and construction management support through construction bidding and procurement for the Phase 2 project, beyond Terraphase’s currently contracted Phase 2 preconstruction engineering support scope, as detailed below:
• Provide construction and contract management support during Phase 2 bidding and procurement, as Terraphase has provided during Stabilization Project bidding and procurement. This includes:
o Providing construction and contract management strategic support to the City during development of the front-end specifications for the Phase 2 RFP. The current contracted Terraphase scope of work does not include development of City contract/procurement documentation (e.g., the City Contract Book).
o Supporting the City during development of the scope of work, contract requirements, and construction management elements of the Phase 2 RFP, similar to the contracting and June 11, 2025
Proposal for Stabilization Project Construction, Engineering, and Compliance Management and Phase 2 Preconstruction Engineering and Management WPCP Former Polishing Pond
City of San Leandro, San Leandro, California
Terraphase Engineering Inc. Page 12 of 14
construction management support provided by Terraphase during the City’s development of the Stabilization Project RFP. The current contracted scope of work is limited to Terraphase response to technical requests by others and one review of a draft RFP prepared by others. o Management support to the City for the Phase 2 pre-bid conference, including agenda development and conference preparation and development of post-conference actions/next steps. The current contracted scope of work is limited to Terraphase attendance of the prebid conference and response to technical requests during conference planning performed by others.
• Develop a more extensive Phase 2 cost estimate update than the currently contracted update. The current contracted Terraphase scope of work is limited to removing Stabilization Project line items from the 100% Design cost estimate and escalating existing estimate unit rates to 2025 values using estimating software. The requested additional scope of work includes outreach to material suppliers and subcontractors to provide a more detailed estimate of significant and higher-risk construction tasks, including the MABR system and treatment wetland subgrade liner. • As discussed with the City in May 2025, Terraphase will provide engineering and coordination support with the City and others to integrate the Phase 2 instrumentation and controls (I&C) system into the WPCP I&C system. This was identified as a potential schedule and cost risk to the City, as the currently approved Phase 2 design identifies MABR operational parameters and shows Phase 2 communications cables terminating at a junction box at the WPCP. The objective of the proposed I&C integration effort is to describe the Phase 2 system’s control strategy, how Phase 2 controls are integrated with the WPCP controls system, and how the WPCP controls system displays and controls the Phase 2 system.

The deliverable for this effort is a technical memorandum that describes these parameters such that the City’s I&C engineer can design the required I&C infrastructure and WPCP I&C system modifications as needed. Terraphase will be subcontract engineering services from Presidio Systems, Inc. (PSI), and Fluence Corporation (Fluence) to provide I&C engineering support during delivery of this task. • As discussed with the City in May 2025, Terraphase will reevaluate and revise the design of the WPCP effluent tie-in valve. This revision may include potentially changing the valve type (e.g., changing from a gate valve to a butterfly valve), providing a make/model specification for the appropriate motorized actuator for the valve, design of structural valve supports, and potential revision of the specified valve vault to accommodate the confirmed valve, actuator and appurtenances. The objective of this additional design scope is to not scope detailed design of the tie-in valve as contractor design-build scope in the Phase 2 RFP.
• As discussed with the City in May and June 2025, Terraphase will facilitate a constructability review of the Phase 2 subgrade liner system. This will include identifying and subcontracting a qualified liner installation contractor, providing Phase 2 project background information and design documents, coordinating with the constructability contractor during their review, and discussing findings with the City. This task does not include revision of Phase 2 project plans, specifications, or cost estimate to incorporate approved design changes identified during the constructability review; any resulting revisions to Phase 2 design documents will be scoped and proposed at City direction after completion of the constructability review.

will be revised to add further task detail and updated task start dates as the Phase 2 construction planning, engineering, and procurement progresses.

It is anticipated that this task will begin during construction of the Stabilization Project and continue through bidding and procurement of Phase 2, likely in Q1 of 2026.

Project Management Team
The Terraphase scope of work will be led by Shakeel Jogia, PE, PMP, CCM, QSD, who will serve as the Terraphase engineering/CM lead as described in this proposal. Mr. Jogia is a licensed Civil Engineer and Certified Construction Manager with over 25 years of experience in infrastructure engineering and construction and is the Engineer of Record for the Stabilization Project design documents. Mr. Jogia will also serve as Project Manager for this contract and will directly oversee all on-site engineering, CM, and construction QA activities and personnel.

Lucas Paz, PhD, CPESC, QSD, QISP ToR will continue to serve this project as Principal In Charge and Client Manager. Dr. Paz will attend Stabilization Project meetings and serve as the primary Terraphase resource for integrating the Stabilization Project with the overall San Leandro WPCP Treatment Wetland program.

Jeff Raines, PE, GE will continue to serve as the project geotechnical engineering subject matter expert (SME) for technical review and consultation during stabilization and fill operations. Mr. Raines will provide SME support during review of critical Contractor submittals, will periodically visit the site to observe operations and provide recommendations, will support RFI review and responses, will review all geotechnical-related design modifications and field orders, and will be engaged as needed to evaluate and help resolve quality issues.

Project Financial Management and Invoicing
Terraphase will perform all financial management for this contract during delivery of Tasks 1-5 and 7 as described above.

Schedule
Terraphase has submitted this proposal with the intention of meeting the submittal schedule for the City’s June 2025 Council meeting. Terraphase is prepared to initiate the proposed scope of work immediately upon receipt of the City’s authorization to proceed in alignment with the approved construction schedule for the Stabilization Project.

Budget
Terraphase will perform the services described herein on a time-and-materials basis utilizing Terraphase’s 2025 Schedule of Charges with a 10% discount and otherwise in accordance with the previously agreed upon Terms and Conditions of the existing contract between Terraphase and the City. The total requested budget for the proposed scope of work is $403,601
A breakdown of this effort is included in Table 1 (attached). Terraphase will not exceed this budget without prior authorization from the City.

Based on the proposed budget in the provisionally selected Contractor’s proposal, (not including alternate tasks), the proposed Task 1-6 budget for Stabilization Project engineering support, construction management, QA, and CGP compliance management equates to less than 6% of the likely selected construction contract.

We believe we can provide this value to the City due to our deep technical knowledge of this project, our understanding of the City’s objectives and constraints, and our engineering, construction management, and compliance experience, and we are confident that our proposed combined services approach provides real value and efficiency compared with the City procuring these services separately.

Closing
We appreciate the opportunity to support the City on this important project. If you have any questions regarding this proposal or would like to discuss any adjustments to our approach, please contact Shakeel Jogia at 510-388-0692 / [email protected] or Dr. Lucas Paz at 510-697-1238 / [email protected].

Sincerely,
For Terraphase Engineering Inc.
