PROJECT UNDERSTANDING
AND APPROACH
The Valencia Industrial Center Bicycle and Pedestrian Improvement project proposes to construct new sidewalk and dedicated bike lanes along Avenue Scott and Rye Canyon Road in the industrial area of Valencia in order to improve pedestrian and bicycle circulation and safety.
The project will also investigate the feasibility of providing dedicated parking and buffered bike lanes along Avenue Scott. The proposed project limits are along both sides of Avenue Scott from the proposed San Francisquito Trail connection to Rye Canyon Road, along the west side of Rye Canyon Road from Avenue Scott to Gateway Village and along the south side of Rye Canyon Road between Avenue Stanford and Avenue Scott. This project will be divided into 2 phase s. Phase 1 will include the improvements along Rye Canyon Road and along Avenue Scott from Rye Canyon Road to Avenue Tibbitts. Phase 2 will include the improvements along Avenue Scott from Avenue Tibbitts to the proposed San Francisquito Trail connection.
ECG has prepared a systematic and thoughtful approach to manage this project from start to finish, getting ahead of challenges and preparing solutions to issues upfront.
The following table summarizes anticipated key issues and our plan to address them in the most effective and efficient manner to successfully meet this project’s requirements. A n itemized plan description follows, with detailed exhibits supporting ECG’s approach to this project. Our plan includes various design options to best meet the City’s desired expectations.

ECG Approach and Advantage ECG Team Experience
4. Driveways
There are multiple existing driveways that will need to be crossed by the new sidewalk. • Verify existing ADA accessible path of travel is compliant by code. • Confirm driveway limits to assure adequate room is available for ADA accessibility.
• Prepare right of way mapping along entire corridor to determine how much room is available for the proposed improvements.
• Prepare driveway design options (Type A, B or C) that is most desirable for the City at each location.
• Minimize impacts to private property
• ECG has in-house engineers
have ADA accessibility design
experience.
• We recently successfully
completed The Santa Clarita
on Sierra Highway Project
which required this same type
of driveway design.
5. ADA Ramps
New access ramps will be needed at many of the intersections within the project limits. • Upon preliminary investigation, there appear to be right of way and surface feature constraints on many of the intersection corners. • Prepare right-of-way mapping to determine ADA ramp limits. Minimize impacts to private property.
• Prepare alternative ADA ramp configurations such as Case A, Type 2 or 3 or Case B style ramps.
• ECG will provide detailed access ramp design for all necessary corners within the project limits.
• We will examine each ramp location individually and special consideration will be made pertaining to existing pedestrian push button locations.
• We will work closely with the City staff to design the type of ramp in the location that is most desirable for the City at each corner.
ECG has extensive experience
with this type of ramp design.
We have recently successfully
completed ramp designs on
multiple projects including with
the
• City of Santa Clarita on the
Sierra Highway sidewalk
project.
• City of Santa Clarita
Circulation projects Phase II
and II
• City of Santa Clarita on
Centre Pointe Parkway
BIKE LANES
Avenue Scott and Rye Canyon Options
This project will investigate the feasibility of replacing the existing shared bike and parking lanes with a dedicated parking lane and a dedicated buffered bike lane.
Based on our initial investigations, ECG has developed lane configuration options for the following:
• Avenue Scott - West of Avenue Tibbitts (see attached Exhibit C). • Avenue Scott - East of Avenue Tibbitts (see attached Exhibit D) • Rye Canyon Road- Option 1 (see attached Exhibit E)
• Rye Canyon Road- Option 2 (see attached Exhibit F)
• Rye Canyon Road- Option 3 (see attached Exhibit G)
• ECG and its traffic engineering subconsultant, Lin Consulting, will work closely with the City to develop a layout that is most desirable for this corridor.
ECG and Lin Consulting have
been working together on similar
projects for 5 years. Our team has
extensive experience with this
type of striping design. We have
recently successfully completed
the following:
• Circulation Project Phase II
• Circulation Project Phase III
involved very detailed signing
and striping designs including
bike lanes and buffers.

Currently there is no sidewalk along both sides of a large portion of Avenue Scott and Rye Canyon Road. On Avenue Scott pedestrians frequently utilize the bike lanes to walk which is not safe for them or the bicyclists and motorists.
This project proposes new sidewalk along both sides of Avenue Scott from the proposed San Francisquito Trail connection to Rye Canyon Road, along the west side of Rye Canyon Road from Avenue Scott to Gateway Village and along the south side of Rye Canyon Road between Avenue Stanford and Avenue Scott. The addition of new sidewalk in these locations will present some unique design challenges in the form of tree and utility conflicts. With our design we will try to avoid these conflicts wherever possible. Where conflicts are unavoidable, we will work with the utility providers to coordinate adjustment or relocation of their facilities
Also required with the addition of the new sidewalk will be the addition of retaining curbs or walls in many areas, the reconstruction of existing driveways to provide an ADA path of travel and the construction of new ADA access ramps at many intersections. We have conducted a preliminary site investigation and have highlighted the major conflicts in Exhibit A, attached.

TREE AND UTILITY CONFLICTS
There are a number of trees along both Avenue
Scott and Rye Canyon Road that will conflict with
the new sidewalk. ECG will perform a detailed
topographic survey of the project area in which we
will document the size and location of all affected
trees. We w ill work closely with the City project
manager and the Urban Forestry Department to
analyze each tree conflict to determine whether the
tree can be avoided or whether it needs to be
removed. We will provide design options and
recommendations for meandering , jogging or
narrowing the proposed sidewalk to assist the City
in the decision making process. For trees that can
remain in place and will be in close proximity to the
new improvements, special care will be taken to
minimize the impacts to the root system.
In addition to tree conflicts, there are many utility
appurtenances and above ground fixtures that will
conflict with the new sidewalk. The types of utility
conflicts that were observed in the field are manholes, meters, vaults, pull boxes, backflow preventers,
sprinklers and irrigation systems, fire hydrants, air vac cans, storm drain catch basins, traffic signs, monument signs, utility cabinets and traffic signal poles. Our
topographic survey will locate and identify the surface utility items within the p roject area including size and type of utility. We will also perform detailed existing utility research to acquire existing as -built plans and, where necessary, we can utilize a subsurface utility
location consultant, Spearhead Locators, to locate
underground utility lines. With our design, ECG will try to avoid these conflicts wherever possible to minimize
costs and construction time frame. Where conflicts are
unavoidable, our in -house utility coordinat or, will
manage adjustments or relocations with the affected utility providers. It will be crucially important to get the affected utility providers onboard as early as possible in the design process. ECG has extensive experience coordinating with the local utility providers including Santa Clarita Valley Water Agency, Southern California Edison, Southern California Gas Company, Los Angeles County Flood Control District, Los Angeles County Sanitation District, Spectrum, AT&T, etc.

RETAINING CURBS AND WALLS
Much of the area where the new sidewalks are proposed consists of relatively steep slopes and mounding. Because the new sidewalk will be designed with a maximum cross slope of 2% per code requirements, there will be a significant length of retaining curbs or walls that will be needed to make up for the grade difference created at the new back of walk.
The majority of the retaining locations appear to require a minimal amount of retaining, on the order of 6” to 18” which can be retained with a small curb or slough wall.
However, it appears that there are some locations that
may require up to 3’ to 4’ of retaining, which would
require retaining walls to be designed. ECG will utilize a geotechnical subconsultant (Earth Systems) to perform
soil testing in the areas that require retaining walls in order to gather structural design recommendations for
any retaining curbs or walls. Our in-house retaining wall design engineer will provide the structural design and
calculations for any required retaining walls.
It should be noted that there may be opportunity to minimize or avoid retaining in some areas by re-grading to daylight to existing ground behind the new sidewalk. This will depend on the amount of right of way available and whether the City desires to acquire temporary construction easements outside of their right of way for the purposes of regrading. ECG has much experience with this type of design in the City of Santa Clarita and will perform a thorough grading analysis and provide design options and recommendations to assist the City in deciding whether retaining or re-grading is most advantages on a location by location basis.

Clarita (Centre Pointe Pkwy) that

DRIVEWAYS
There are also a large number of existing driveways
within the project limits. Upon field inspection it does not appear that any of the existing driveways provide
an ADA accessible path of travel across the driveway
as required by code and detailed in the Standard Plans
for Public Works Construction (SPPWC). After
researching the existing right of way widths within the project limits, it also appears that the existing driveways are constructed up to the right of way limits leaving no room behind them within the right of way for an ADA
accessible path of travel. As a result, it is most likely that all the existing driveways will need to be
reconstructed. ECG will provide detailed driveway re-
design for all substandard driveways to comply with
SPPWC Standard Plan 110-2 and City details and specifications. We will examine each driveway location individually to account for all surface conflicts and work closely with the City staff to design the type of driveway (Type A, B or C) that is most desirable for the City at each location. ECG has extensive experience with this type of design on similar recent City of Santa Clarita projects.
ACCESS RAMPS
In conjunction with adding new sidewalk, new access ramps will need to be added at many of the intersections within the project limits. After researching the existing right of way configurations, it does not appear that any right of way corner cut -offs exist within the project limits. Additionally, there are obstructions such as monument signs or landscape walls on many of the corners. As a result of these constraints, the standard SPPWC Standard Plan 111- 5, Case A, Type 1 ramp will Sample driveway re-design providing
ADA accessible path of travel (shown as
Type A style driveway)
Example access ramp configuration at southwest corner of Avenue Scott and Avenue Stanford (SSPPWC Standard Plan 111-5, Case B style ramp shown)

most likely not be feasible. Instead, we will need to utilize Case A, Type 2 or 3 or Case B style ramps. ECG will provide detailed access ramp design for all necessary corners within the project limits to comply with SPPWC Standard Plan 111- 5 and City details and specifications. We will examine each ramp location individually to account for all surface conflicts. Special consideration will also be made pertaining to existing pedestrian push button locations to ensure that all new ramps are within minim um distances to the push buttons including identifying any push buttons that need to be relocated. We will work closely with the City staff to design the type of ramp in the location that is most desirable for the City at each corner. ECG has extensive experience with this type of design on similar recent projects.
BIKE LANES
Currently shared bike and parking lanes exist on both sides of Avenue Scott within the project limits while no bike lanes exist within the project limits along Rye Canyon Road. Along Avenue Scott , this project will investigate the feasibility of replacing the existing shared bike and parking lanes on both sides of the street with a dedicated parking lane and a dedicated bike lane. This project will also investigate the feasibility of buffering the bike lanes along Avenue Scott. Along Rye Canyon, this project proposes a new bike lane along the east side of Rye Canyon Road from Avenue Scott to Gateway Village and along the south side of Rye Canyon Road from Avenue Stanford to Avenue Scott.
Avenue Scott – West of Avenue Tibbitts
The existing curb to curb width of Avenue Scott, west of Avenue Tibbitts is 84’. In the existing condition, it consists of a 12’ number one through lane, an 11’ number two through lane and one 12’ shared bike and parking lane in each direction with a 14’ median in the middle. ECG has performed a preliminary analysis of the possible lane configurations for this corridor to investigate the feasibility of adding a dedicated bike lane and buffer. We have developed two lane configuration options:
- Option 1 – Parking, Bike Lane and Buffer
This option includes all three of the items the City desires; a parking lane, a bike lane and a bike lane buffer. With this configuration we would need to use the minimum parking lane width of 8’ (per Caltrans standards) and the minimum bike lane width of 5’ (per MUTCD standards). Then if we reduce both through lanes to 10’, this leaves a 2’ bike lane buffer.
See attached Exhibit B. Although this provides all three items that the City desires, the City will need to determine whether this configuration is ideal since Avenue Scott is more heavily travelled by large trucks than a typical street and 10’ lanes may not be ideal for this type of traffic. Additionally, the minimal 2’ buffer may not be worth the reduction in through lane width.
City of Santa Clarita
Valencia Industrial Center Bicycle and Pedestrian Improvements Proposal # CIP-22-23-C1017
Encompass Consultant Group PAGE 21 An Employee-Owned Company
- Option 2 – Parking and Bike Lane (No Buffer)
This option includes a parking lane and a bike lane without a bike lane buffer. This configuration also uses the minimum parking lane width of 8’ (per Caltrans standards) and the minimum bike lane width of 5’ (per MUTCD standards ). However, without the 2’ bike lane buffer the two through lanes can be 11’ wide which may be more advantageous for large truck traffic. The City will need to make this determination.
See attached Exhibit C.
ECG and Traffic Engineering subconsultant, Lin Consulting, will work closely with the City to review the advantages and disadvantages of the above options and develop a layout that is most desirable for this corridor given the C ity’s hierarchy of priorities. ECG and Lin Consulting have extensive experience with this type of design on similar recent projects in the City of Santa Clarita.
Avenue Scott – East of Avenue Tibbitts
The existing curb to curb width of Avenue Scott, east of Avenue Tibbitts is 64’. It consists of two 11’ through lanes and one 5’ dedicated bike lane in each direction with a 10’ striped two way left turn median in the middle. Given the street width it doesn’t appear feasible to add a parking lane unless the City wants to reduce the number of through lanes. However, it is feasible to provide a 2’ bike lane buffer if the through lanes are reduced to 10’ wide. This configuration would consist of two 10’ through lanes, a 2’ buffer and a 5’ bike lane in each direction.
See attached Exhibit D. The
City will need to determine whether this configuration is ideal since Avenue Scott is more heavily travelled by large trucks than a typical street and 10’ lanes may not be ideal for this type of traffic.
Additionally, the minimal 2’ buffer may not be worth the reduction in through lane width. ECG and team will work closely with the City to develop a layout that is most desirable for this corridor.
Rye Canyon Road
The existing curb to curb width of Rye Canyon Road is 84’. In the existing condition, it consis ts of a 13’ number one through lane, a 10’ number two through lane and a 12’ number three through lane in each direction with a 14’ median in the middle. ECG has performed a preliminary analysis of the possible lane configurations for this corridor to investigate the feasibility of adding a dedicated bike lane and buffer. We have developed two lane configuration options:
- Option 1 – Maintain 3 through lanes with bike lane (No buffer) This option includes adding a dedicated bike lane while maintaining the three through lanes. With this configuration we would need to use the minimum bike lane width of 5’ (per MUTCD standards) and reduce all three through lanes to 10’ wide. A bike lane buffer would not be feasible in this configuration.
See attached Exhibit E. Although this configuration
maintains the same number of through lanes as the existing condition, the City will need to determine whether this configuration is ideal given the amount and type of traffic on this road.
City of Santa Clarita
Valencia Industrial Center Bicycle and Pedestrian Improvements Proposal # CIP-22-23-C1017
Encompass Consultant Group PAGE 22 An Employee-Owned Company
- Option 2 – Reduce to 2 through lanes and add buffered bike lane This option includes reducing the number of through lanes to two in order to add a buffered bike lane. In this configuration the existing 12’ wide right through lane could be converted to a 7’ bike lane with a 5’ buffer. See attached Exhibit F. The City will need to determine if a reduction in the number of through lanes is desirable for this location. If this lane reduction is desirable, the bike lane and buffer can begin just north of Avenue Stanford. About 350’ south of Avenue Stanford there are only two through lanes and Rye Canyon opens to 3 through lanes utilizing a shared through and right turn lane. See attached Exhibit G. This shared through and right turn lane could be converted to a dedicated right lane with minimal signing and striping revisions and the two through lane configuration could be continued through the intersection where the new 7’ bike lane and 5’ buffer could begin. This would create a very smooth transition into the buffered bike lane configuration should the City desire this configuration.
ECG and Traffic Engineering subconsultant, Lin Consulting, will work closely with the City to review the advantages and disadvantages of the above options and develop a layout that is most desirable for this corridor gi ven the City’s hierarchy of priorities. ECG and Lin Consulting have extensive experience with this type of design on similar recent projects in the City of Santa Clarita.

WORK STATEMENT
We have reviewed the work statement and scope of work provided with the RFP. Based on our initial site walk of the project limits and our understanding of the project requirements we have provided the following scope of services required to successfully deliver this project with Tasks, Subtasks, and Deliverables. In addition to the general scope based on the RFP, we have prepared an Optional Services Tasks 4 below that are related to similar projects ECG has completed. These items include environmental reports, LID report, bid phase and construction phase services.
TASK 1: PRELIMINARY INVESTIGATIONS
Subtask 1.1: Field Reconnaissance
Using available mapping our team will walk the entire site to document the existing conditions.
Pictures and video will be taken and cataloged for use by the entire design team. We will identify areas requiring topographic surveying (e.g., curb ramps, utilities), as well as any other conditions that may require coordination with our sub-consultants and/or other agencies. ECG shall note existing conditions that may impact the design. Extra time will be spent documenting existing utilities within the locations designated for demolition and where existing utilities may require relocation.
ECG will identify the items to be catalogued through field surveying existing utilit ies such as, irrigation facilities, traffic facilities, wet and dry utilities, monument signs and any other conditions that may require team coordination and/ or coordination with other agencies.
ECG and its sub consultants shall evaluate all components against current California MUTCD standards, Caltrans Standard Specification and Standard Specifications and Plans for Public Works Construction (Greenbook)
Output:
1. Document and map existing conditions for use on design basemap.
2. Determine topographical survey limits.
3. Photograph/ Video and identify existing utilities
4. Detailed field notes will be prepared

Subtask 1.2: Document Research, Utility Mapping
Along with the initial site investigation, ECG will contact dry and wet utility companies and agencies to obtain record drawing information to document existing utilities within the work area specifically where relocations, grading and removals are proposed. Record utility maps will be compiled onto an existing utility basemap used for design.
Out team will reference and review all documents received from the City and agencies including the existing buildings, site facilities, and street improvement drawings.
ECG will contact USA Dig Alert to obtain a list of providers and utility owners for the project area.
We will send a letter, on City letterhead, and map to each entity on the list with a request for maps or a clearance statement. A log will be maintained documenting the contacted utility companies’ responses and coordination notes.
Once the existing utilities are compiled onto the survey design basemap, ECG will overlay the proposed improvements and develop a plan showing potential existing utilit y relocations and conflicts. Existing utility plans will be submitted and reviewed to confirm potential tree removals, utilities conflicts and design options to avoid relocations.
Based on the existing utility research and field investigations performed by the team, ECG will verify the plans provided by the City are reasonably accurate. Information gathered will be used to determine the location and feasibility of improvements to be included in the current scope. Our goal is to develop a basemap that is as accurate at possible utilizing the most current information available.
Output:
1. Existing utility basemap
2. Existing utility response log

Subtask 1.3: Survey Mapping
Aerial Survey
Perform aerial survey of the
entire project limits shown in
green. The aerial imagery and
mapping will be performed by
AeroTech Mapping and will be
used as basemap for the
proposed bicycle and striping
improvements. The aerial
mapping will allow us to
accurately and efficiently
obtain geometric and
horizontal measurements for
re-striping options.
Aerial photography will be captured at an accuracy that is suitable to compile topographic mapping at a scale of 1- inch equals 20
feet, with a 1- foot contour
interval. The aerial photography will be processed to create a single ortho- rectified photo of the project site.
Supplement Survey
Supplemental topographical survey, limits shown in red, will be performed along the business corridor for the proposed pedestrian improvements. Perform supplemental survey along an approximately 25’-foot wide corridor delineated by red pathways within the aerial mapping limits to locate pavement, curbs, drives, walks, building footprints, fences, walls, planters, and visible surface utilities, together with topographic features such as tops, toes, flow lines, grade breaks, etc. This corridor is proposed to extend from lip of gutter to approximately 25 feet behind existing curb. Spearhead locating services paint markings denoting approximate underground utility locations will also be located as a part of this work.
Additional topographic information will be collected outside of the above-described areas to include curb and gutter, and striping information on both sides of the roadways where needed, in support of striping and lane realignment for the proposed bicycle improvements.
Record Right of Way Compilation
Perform field survey to search for and recover existing record monuments sufficient in number to compile the record documents. The monuments will be tied to the project control survey, and will be used to orient the boundary to the project mapping datum.
Research of pertinent recorded maps and documents. Compile road right of way based on the information contained in the latest available assessor site information. The computed road right of way will be added to the AutoCAD drawing base map. Resolving boundary problems, such as conflicting descriptions and misclosures, are beyond the scope of this proposal.

record are required to be plotted, a current preliminary title report will need to be provided by client to determine additional level of effort, if any.
Output:
1. Deliverables include an AutoCad drawing file of the topographic mapping. We will add a title sheet with surveyor’s notes, vicinity map, legend, and a control point listing with descriptions and coordinates for use in construction documents. Digital format shall include AutoCAD, PDF and SHP files.
2. Aerial imagery
3. Right of way compilation in CAD
Subtask 1.4: Utility Potholing and Utility Locating
Pothole and map existing utilities to ev aluate potential utility conflicts during project design. Taft Electric will perform potholing services to confirm critical utilities. An assumed 1 field day (approx. 4 to 6 locations) for potholing will budgeted if needed. Potholing shall be performed after proposed utility locations have been approved by the City. Pothole information shall be identified on the plans. ECG will prepare pothole locations exhibit to identify the proposed potholing based on utilities encountered.
Perform subsurface utility locating for areas designated for widening.
Spearhead Locating Services will locate and mark underground utilities including gas, water, electric, fiber optic, storm drain, water and sewer.
They will utilize electromagnetic location equipment to positively identify utilities in the median to be removed. Once the utilities are marked, and paint is still fresh, our survey crews will collect the markings during the supplemental survey field work. Findings will be photographed and documented in a report.
Output:
1. Potholing report
2. Subsurface utility location report.
Subtask 1.5: Geotechnical Investigations and Report
Perform geotechnical investigations and provide recommendations for design. ECG will review the survey topographical map to identify locations for potential retaining wall locations. Hight of the retaining walls will be considered. Testing for expansive soils will also be included. The expansive soils index will be used when designing concrete structural section to avoid potential uplift. ECG will coordinate with the geotechnical subconsultant Earth Systems to identify testing locations and report revisions. Earth Systems will use the field exploration data and laboratory testing results to
City of Santa Clarita
Valencia Industrial Center Bicycle and Pedestrian Improvements Proposal # CIP-22-23-C1017
Encompass Consultant Group PAGE 27 An Employee-Owned Company
base their recommendations. Seismic requirements and expansive soil characteristics will be used for design of the proposed retaining walls and concrete work.
Output:
1. Geotechnical report
Subtask 1.6: Environmental Compliance
ECG will work with the City and our environmental/planning subconsultants, Rincon Consulting and SitesPacific, Inc., to review the environmental requirements for this project. Out team will meet with city staff to discuss the environmental review process and assist with any environmental review requirements for the project PS&E. Once we can determine what documents and process the city has taken so far, we can better evaluate and recommend a process. For the purposes of this proposal, we propose a stepped approach to the environmental process. First, SitesPacific, Inc. will prepare an Initial Study to determine if the project may have a significant effect on the environment. Second, If the initial study determines there is a potential for a significant impact to the environment, ECG will work with our subconsultants to prepare an additional proposal for the environmental review document required, plus any additional studies that may need to be done to satisfy the environmental review requirements.
Output:
1. Environmental Initial Study Report
TASK 2: PROJECT MANAGEMENT
ECG’s project manager, Josiah Jenison, will work closely with the City’s project manager to administer the flow of information to and from the project team. Project updates and design constraints will be brought up early to best mitigate and resolve issues to keep the project on schedule.
Subtask 2.1: Kick-Off and Monthly PDT Meetings
The first step in the process will be to meet with City staff via video conference call to review the details of the project with a Project Kick-off Meeting. We believe it is important for the team to understand the nuances of the project, as well as all special concerns, before proceeding.
Members of the PDT shall include Consultant and sub-consultants as required, City staff and other agency representatives, as necessary.
Monthly progress reports shall be prepared and submitted with the monthly invoice which is to include progress schedule updates and supporting data. The progress report shall include accomplished tasks for the month, anticipated progress for the next month, pending issues, and schedule completion target dates.

Subtask 2.4: Utility Coordination
We anticipate adjustments and relocations of existing utilities and will require extensive coordination. ECG will lead the utility coordination effort throughout the project. ECG shall gather the potholing information, subsurface identification data, and existing utility markings onto a single existing utility basemap. The proposed improvements will be overlayed to create and utility conflict plan. The existing utilities identified to be in conflict and require relocation will be coordinated. ECG will engage the utility agencies to coordinate and meet with each agency. Early utility coordination will help minimize the duration required to resolve conflicts.
In addition to the utility notices requesting record drawings noted in Subtask 1.2, ECG will be prepared and send the following notices for the following:
1) Record drawings Request (per subtask 1.2)
2) Notice for potential conflicts - Follow up meetings may be required with utility agencies to coordinate and discuss their utilities in conflict. Our goal is to obtain an understanding with the utility agency on the plan for relocation. Plans and exhibits will be prepared in support of these meetings.
3) Notify agency to relocated utility- Once the utilities to be relocated and have been agreed upon, ECG will prepare and send a notice to relocate the utility. The goal is to put the utility agency on notice to prepare for relocation either prior or during construction. 4) Notice for construction. This will be the final notice identifying the estimated construc tion date and provide copies of the final construction plans.
A utility coordination log, or matrix, will be prepared to easily track and document communication and coordination efforts with utility agencies.
• Attend meeting with City
• Initiate and conduct meeting utility companies
• Coordinate with utility companies to realize a relation plan • Submit plans for review and comments
• Process applications for approvals

Subtask 2.5: Quality Control
Quality Assurance and Quality Control is are two critical steps that is applied to all of ECG projects.
ECG has developed and will implement a QA/ QC plan throughout the entire duration of the project.
An internal constructability review shall be performed by one of our Principals with extensive construction management and inspection experience to provide perspective from the contractor’s point of view.
Output:
1. Quality Control Plan and Check list.
TASK 3: DESIGN
Following the Kick off meeting and once the utility investigations and topographical mapping is completed, ECG shall prepare design plans for review at 30%, 60%, 90%, 100% complete and Final, (5 total submittals) including approved plans, construction estimates and specifications for bidding. Plans shall comply with the latest City of Santa Clarita Standards, City of Santa Clarita Landscape Maintenance District Standards, Standard Specifications for Public Works Construction (Greenbook).
Plan sheets shall be compiled and grouped in such a way that they can be easily referenced during construction. It is understood that the project may require a permit for the relocation of existing facilities associated with the proposed pedestrian improvements. ECG will prepare separate plan submittals for the effected utilities company review and approval.
Design plans shall include the following:
Demolition Plans
A construction demolition plan shall be prepared for the project. The plan shal l indicate grading and drainage, striping and signage, utility and landscape demolition, general demolition notes and details if necessary. Plan shall also indicate features and utilities that need to be either relocated or protected in place. The plan s hall minimize the number of removals from the property outside of City right of way.
Output:
1. Demolition plans
Grading and Drainage Improvement Plans
Prepare sidewalk and ADA improvement plans. Grading plan views shall show flow lines, existing top of curb elevations, stationing, grade breaks, and saw cut limits. Cross sections at every 50’ intervals and details shall be shown on a separate sheet with legends. It is understood that the proposed improvements, including relocations that may impact private property improvements.
City of Santa Clarita
Valencia Industrial Center Bicycle and Pedestrian Improvements Proposal # CIP-22-23-C1017
Encompass Consultant Group PAGE 32 An Employee-Owned Company
These impacts will be coordinated with the City and the utility providers. ECG will make every effort practicable to avoid relocations by including meandering sidewalk options.
The sidewalk and ADA design shall consider existing drainage patterns, existing improvements, utilities and pedestrian safety. The plan shall comply with the City of Santa Clarita standards and Greenbook.
Grading and drainage plans shall consider the geotechnical finding for the design of concrete improvements. The potential for expansive soils will be reviewed and mitigated in design.
Output:
1. Prepare Grading and drainage improvement plans.
Utility Relocation Plans
ECG shall prepare a Utility Relocation Plan for existing utilities in conflict with the proposed pedestrian improvements. The plan will include existing information compiled from information gathered during Task 1 Preliminary Investigations phase. Proposed utility relocations will be presented to the City during the 30% submittal prior to submitting relocation plans to the corresponding agencies. It is anticipated that relocations will be necessary and plan approvals from outside agencies will be required.

Prepare specifications in a format consistent with the latest edition of the Standard Specifications for Public Works Construction (SSPWC). For work items not adequately covered in the SSPWC.
Output:
1. Technical specification will be delivered at the 90%, 100% and final submittals.
Specifications will be prepared using Microsoft Word format.
Estimates
Estimates of probable implementation cost will be maintained throughout the course of the design. The estimates are prepared using the project quantity takeoffs and current unit prices. Unit costs for civil, landscape and traffic items such as standards, mast arms, detector loops, conduit, interconnect cable, pull boxes, AC paving, curb, striping and other such work items are all maintained in a spreadsheet and updated whenever new cost information is available. ECG will prepare solicitation bid documents in compliance with the City’s requirements and Greenbook standards.

Subtask 3.1- Schematic Preliminary Engineering Plans
Prepare schematic plan drawings illustrating all components of the Project including utilities, limits of improvements, tree removals, impacts to private properties, right of way issues, ADA ramp types, ADA compliant driveways, utility relocations, striping and signage and design options. The schematic plan will look at designs for the proposed pedestrian improvements.
Once the plan is developed, we shall meet with the Project Development Team to further enhance the schematic preliminary plan. Meeting minutes shall be prepared for meetings during this phase. If required, a field meeting can be arranged to further understand any issues that may come up during our initial investigations and studies. Comments will then be incorporated onto the preliminary plan. A meeting with agencies and utility companies will be held to ensure that we address any potential utility conflicts. Once the schematic preliminary design plan is reviewed and approved by the City, ECG will move ahead toward the 60% design.
Output:
1. Schematic preliminary plans
Subtask 3.2- 60%, 90%, 100% and Final PS&E
Once the schematic preliminary plan review comments are received, we shall proceed to develop construction documents. ECG will conduct a team design meeting to review the documents and discuss City comments. We will incorporate review comments into the subsequent submittal and provide the City with a log of how each comment was addressed. If it is determined that more field data is necessary, ECG shall obtain further supplemental survey data to refine the Preliminary plan set. ECG shall submit construction documents for plan review at 60%, 90%, 100% and Final, and issue approved plans and specifications for bidding. A separate Project Development Team Meeting (PDT) shall be held after each plan check to go over comments and design direction on the project.

TASK 4 - OPTIONAL SERVICES
LID (OPTIONAL)
The project scope in this RFP does not identify compliance with the City of Santa Clarita LID requirements. As an optional service, ECG can prepare a LID Report based on the City of Santa Clarita Green Street LID standards and County of LA LID standards. It is understood that the project site has limited right of way which will make it difficult to implement some LID applications without acquiring right of way. ECG will look for opportunities to implement LID applications to the maximum extent practicable. The findings will be discussed with the City to make a determination for the proper approach to the LID requirements.
Environmental (OPTIONAL)
If the initial study (Per Subtask 1.6) determines there is a potential for a significant impact to the environment, ECG will work with our environmental subconsultant Rincon Consulting to prepare an additional proposal for the environmental review document required, plus any additional studies that may need to be done to satisfy the environmental review requirements.
Landscape and Irrigation Plans (OPTIONAL)
Based on the RFP scope of work and the pre-proposal meeting presentation, it is understood that landscape and irrigation plans are not anticipated. ECG has successfully completed similar projects for the City of Santa Clarita without landscape and irrigation plans. The adjustments to the existing landscape and irrigation were identified by a plan call out and in the specifications for the contractor to adjust as part of their contract documents. No issues or change orders were issued. If during the negotiations with the business owners it is determined that enhanced landscape plans are required, then ECG will work with
Pacific Coast Land Design to develop a
separate scope and fee if necessary.
Bid Phase Support and Construction Phase Services (OPTIONAL) ECG will provide technical support during the bid phase of the project. Assist the City’s Project Manager in responding to questions related to the plans and technical specifications during the bid phase. If necessary, update the plans and technical specifications based on questions during the bid phase. Assist the City’s project manager in rev iew and making recommendations to contract change orders.

limitation, incidental and consequential damages, court costs, attorneys’ fees, litigation expenses and fees of expert consultants or expert witnesses incurred in connection therewith and costs of investigation) that arise from or relate to, directly or indirectly, in whole or in part, from: (1) any negligent act or omission of CONSULTANT, any subconsultant, anyone directly or indirectly employed by them, or anyone that they control; (2) any actual or alleged infringement of the patent rights, copyright, trade secret, trade name, trademark, service mark or any other intellectual or proprietary right of any person or persons in consequence of the use by CITY, or any other Indemnitee, of articles or Services to be supplied in the performance of this Agreement; or (3) any breach of this Agreement (collectively “Liabilities”). Such obligations to defend, hold harmles s and indemnify any Indemnitee shall not apply to the extent such Liabilities are caused by the sole or active negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee, but shall apply to all other Liabilities.
The foregoing indemnification provisions will not reduce or affect other rights or obligations which would otherwise exist in favor of the CITY and other Indemnitees.
CONSULTANT shall place in its subconsulting agreements and cause its subconsultants to agree to indemnities and insurance obligations in fa vor of CITY and other Indemnitees in the exact form and substance of those contained in this Agreement.
II. INSURANCE
(A) Before commencing performance under this Agreement, and at all other times this Agreement is effective, CONSULTANT will procure and mainta in the following types of insurance with coverage limits complying, at a minimum, with the limits set forth below:
Type of Insurance Limits
Commercial general liability: $1,000,000
Professional liability $1,000,000
Business automobile liability $1,000,000
Workers compensation Statutory requirement
(i) Commercial general liability insurance will meet or exceed the requirements of ISO-CGL Form No. CG 00 01 11 85 or 88. The amount of insurance set forth above will be a combined single limit per occurrence for bodily injury, personal injury, and property damage for the policy coverage.
Automobile coverage will be written on ISO Business Auto Coverage Form CA 00 01 06 92, including symbol 1 (Any Auto). Liability policies will be endorsed to name CITY, its officials, and employees as “additional insureds” under said insurance coverage and to state that such insurance will be deemed “primary” such that any other insurance that may be carried by CITY will be excess thereto. Such endorsement must be reflected on ISO Form No. CG 20 10 11 85 or 88, or equivalent. Such insurance will be on an “occurrence,” not a “claims made,” basis and will not be cancelable or subject to reduction except upon thirty (30) days prior written notice to CITY. (ii) Professional liability coverage will be on an “occurrence basis” if such coverage is available, or on a “claims made” basis if not available. When coverage is provided on a “claims made basis,” CONSULTANT will continue to renew the insurance for a period of at least three (3) years after this Agreement expires or is terminated. Such insurance will have the same coverage and limits as the policy that was in effect during the term of this Agreement, and will cover CONSULTANT for all claims made by CITY arising out of any errors or omissions of CONSULTANT, or its officers, employees or agents during the time this Agreement was in effect.
CONSULTANT will furnish to CITY duly authenticated Certificates of Insurance evidencing maintenance of the insurance required under this Agreement, including endorsements, and such other evidence of insurance or copies of policies as may be reasonably required by CITY from time to time.
Insurance must be placed with California- admitted insurers with (other than workers compensat ion) a current A.M. Best Company Rating of at least “A:VII.”
Waiver of Subrogation: The insurer(s) agree to waive all rights of subrogation against CITY, its elected or appointed officers, officials, agents, volunteers and employees for losses paid under the terms of the workers compensation policy which arise from work performed by CONSULTANT for CITY.
Should CONSULTANT, for any reason, fail to obtain and maintain the insurance required by this Agreement, CITY may obtain such coverage at CONSULTANT’s expense and deduct the cost of such insurance from payments due to CONSULTANT under this Agreement or terminate pursuant to TERMINATION section. In the alternative, should CONSULTANT fail to meet any of the insurance requirements under this Agreement, City may terminate this Agreement immediately with no penalty.
Should CONSULTANT’S insurance required by this Agreement be cancelled at any point prior to expiration of the policy, CONSULTANT must notify City within 24 hours of receipt of notice of cancellation.
Furthermore, CONSULTANT must obtain replacement coverage that meets all contractual requirements within 10 days of the prior insurer’s issuance of notice of cancellation. CONSULTANT must ensure that there is no lapse in coverage.
The CITY shall be entitled to any coverage in excess of the minimums required herein.
I
have read and understand the above requirements and agree to be bound by them for any work performed for the City.

Since 1969, the Earth Systems gr oup of companies has provided expert geo -professional se rvices to ass ist our client s through all aspects of geotechnical and geologic engineering, environmental engineering, and co nstruction related materials testing and inspection services . Through our previous work in the region, our dedicated staff understands the diverse geotechnical, geologic, and construction-related issues that may affe ct the proposed project a nd will work t o dev elop practical and economical geotechnical engineering solutions through innovative approaches.
We have prepared this proposal based on our understanding of preliminary project information provided in emails from Mr. Sal Contreras on October 17 , 20 22. We un derstand that the proposed project will be developed under the regulation of the 2019 California Building Code (CBC).

November 2, 2022 2 Proposal No.: PAL-22-11-001
EARTH SYSTEMS PACIFIC
Preliminary design plans were not available at the time that this proposal was prepared ; however, most of the improvement areas are generally flat and, as such, we have assumed that proposed finished grades will likely be within five feet of existing site grades.
The purpose of our study will be to explore the subsurface conditions and provide g eotechnical recommendations for project design. This proposal contain s a brief project descrip tion, our proposed approach to the project based upon our initial asses sment of s ite conditions and readily available information, our proposed scope of services, schedule, and proposed fee.
Since d etailed servic es may involve gr eater expense, we ask that our cli ents participate in determining t he level of service, that will provide adequate in formation for t heir purposes.
Please review this information and our proposed scope. If you s hould have any questions or suggested revisions to our scope, please do not he sitate to contact the sig natory of this proposal.
Our p roposal is ba sed upon th e assump tion that we will be provide d full access to the site during normal business hours (M -F, 7am to 6pm) to complete fie ld activities and that drilling with a gasoline powered drill rig equipped with a 140-pound hammer to drive the soil samplers can be used at the site.
PROPOSED SCOPE OF SERVICES
Our scope will include performing subsurface exploration, laboratory testing, and preparing one report of our fi ndings in ac cordance with the 2019 CBC. Once field and laboratory te sting is completed, the data will be organiz ed by a member of our professional staff to develop conclusions and recommendations relevant to site devel opment as we unde rstand it . As required by the CBC, our report will be signed and stamped by a California registered Engineer.
Task 1 - Literature Review
We propose to begin our services by reviewing select ge otechnical literature pert aining to the project area. This will include a review of various hazard, fault and geologic maps prepared by the Califo rnia Geological Survey, the U.S. Geological Surv ey, Los Angeles County, and other governmental agencies as they relate to the site.
Task 2 - Utility Coordination, USA Layout, and Permitting Each of our proposed fi eld exploration l ocations will be located and marked in the field and cleared with known utility lines as identified by Underground Service Alert (USA). Our proposed exploration locations will be l ocated in the field by hand measuring devices such as tape or a wheel, based on the control provided, and a cons umer grade hand-held GPS (accuracy + /- 15 feet). The accuracy of locations will be governed by the method used.
We will apply for any necessary “no fee” permits within the City of Santa Clarita as needed for our field exploration. Our fee does not include a n estimate for traffic control. O ther permitting that we are not currently aware of is outside the scope of this proposal and will be charged on a time and expense basis.
Task 3 – Field Exploration
November 2, 2022 3 Proposal No.: PAL-22-11-001
EARTH SYSTEMS PACIFIC
We propose to evaluate the ge neral subsurface conditions at the site b y rubber-tire mounted drill rig utilizing hollow -stem auger type techniques . Borings will be performe d to collect soil samples and evaluate the general nature of the anticipated site soils. Our proposed exploration locations will be selected based on the email information or additional information provided by the client.
Our planned geotechnical explor ation will in clude approximately five geotechnical borings.
Boring depths will range from approximately 5 to 25 feet belo w the existing ground surface.
Boring depths are as measured below the existing ground surface and will be excavated to the approximate stated depths or to practical refusal, whichever occurs first.
A representative of Earth S ystems will log subsur face cond itions and will obtain samples f or visual o bservation, classification and labora tory testing. Soils w ill be logged in g eneral accordance with the Unified S oil Classification System . Our ty pical sampling interval will be approximately every 2½ to 5 feet to the full depth explo red; however, sampling intervals may be adjusted depending on the materials encountered. Bulk samples of the soil materials will be obtained. The num ber of blow s necessary to drive either a Sta ndard Penetration Tes t (SPT) sampler or a California-type sampler within the borings will be recorded. The depth to groundwater will be measured, if encountere d. Borings wi ll be backfilled wi th the soils from the cuttings and ta mped upon completion. Cont rolled compaction of t he backfi ll is not proposed.
Our field exploration will be provided u nder the direction of a St ate of Ca lifornia Cert ified Engineering Geologist or a Registe red Engineer from our firm. In the event that un usual site conditions not presently anticipated are encountered during the exploration, we will bring it to your attention and will discuss with you the e ffect of thes e conditions on both the estimated cost and timing of the report.
Task 4 - Laboratory Testing
Laboratory tests will be per formed on selected samples to evaluate the physical characteristics of the mate rials e ncountered du ring ou r fiel d exploration. We anticipate laboratory test ing may include moisture content, dr y unit weight, maximum density/optimum moisture content, sieve analysis, shear strengt h, and Expansion Index testing . Te sting will be p erformed in general accordance with American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) or appropriate test procedure. The tests selected an d the frequency of testing may be mo dified and will be based on the subsurface conditions actually encountered.
Task 5 – Analysis and Report
Earth Systems will analyze the fie ld data obtained, p erform preliminary engineering analyses, and, as needed and ap plicable, provi de recommended design parameters for earthwork and foundations for the proposed retaining walls . The results of our field e xploration and engineering analysis will be summarized i n a report prepared un der t he supervisio n o f a Registered Engineer and Certified Engin eering Geologist as required by t he 201 9 CBC. Based upon the reporting requirements, we anticipate that our report will include:

• An a ppendix, w hich wil l include a summary of the field e xploration and laboratory testing program.
Task 6 – Consultation
If needed, w e have included 6 hours of consultation during r eport preparation an d design, or unforeseen iss ues that m ay occur during our explorat ion or analysis. This fee is Time an d Materials and will only be used if needed.
FEES
It is our desire to provide you with the highest quality services at reasonable fees. On behalf of Earth Systems, we look forward to working with you. For this project our estimated fees are provided below.
We propose to complete the proposed scope of work on a fixed fee basis as detailed below:
Geotechnical Engineering Report (Tasks 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5) $15,800.00
Consultation T&M (Task 6) $1,140.00
The fee for Tasks 1-5 should be sufficient to provide a report typically approved by reviewing agencies. However, if there is request for additional review, responses, plan reviews, reporting, November 2, 2022 5 Proposal No.: PAL-22-11-001
EARTH SYSTEMS PACIFIC
meetings, information beyond the normal review proce ss and reporting re quirements detailed herein, or any other service no t sp ecifically d etailed, additional fees will be required.
Additionally, our fee does not include testing or observation during construction or consultation. If required, se rvices in ad dition to the scope of w ork described above ca n b e billed on a time-and-expense basis, based on the fee schedule in effect at that time.
SCHEDULE
Based on the requested information, we feel confident that we can provide the geotechnical engineering report as outlined in this pr oposal in an expeditio us manner. Typically, once authorization to ent er the prop erty and a si gned contract is received, we can mark respective boring locations in the field. Subsequ ent to field marking, we will contact Underground Service Alert which require s 48 hours notific ation p rior to any und erground ex cavation or dr illing.
Depending on s ubcontractor availability, we anticipate excavating ou r field borings within two to three weeks after the minimum 48 hours wait re quired by Underground Service Alert.
Drilling operations will take approximately one day.
Laboratory testing is anticipated to take three weeks after drilling is completed. This time frame is governed by the type of testing pe rformed as certain tests anticipated for this project require at least one week to run. Norm al time frames f rom receipt of a uthorization to report submittal is approximately six to eight weeks. If reques ted, we ca n provide design data in the interim period before the report is finalized.
Our proposal is bas ed on the understanding that o ur services, as outlined in this proposal, are not subject to Prevailing Wage Law for non-professional field staff (i.e., drillers and helpers).
