Exhibit A -Scope and Services
City of Santa Rosa
ENVIRONMENTAL SITE ASSESSMENT SERVICES
Based on our review of EBA Engineering's Phase I Environmental Site Assessments (ESAs) prepared for the four City properties, it is Millennium's professional opinion that the requested Phase II Environmental Site Assessment is not necessary.
The results of the Phase I ESAs did not indicate the presence of any UST at these sites, with the exception of the 90 Santa Rosa Avenue site. The 90 Santa Rosa Avenue historical had USTs, however the previous site investigations were unable to locate any existing USTs, and the site has been closed by the North Coast Regional Water Quality Control Board (NCRWQCB).
Based on the City's specific request within the RFP, Millennium has prepared this scope of work. This scope of work will only take place if the City directs the work.
PROPOSED SCOPE OF WORK:
Task 1- Geophysical Survey
The geophysical surveys will be conducted by an experienced two-person crew led by a California Professional Geophysicist. They will be equipped with all the instrumentation and ancillary gear necessary to complete the surveys for USTs and the possible associated piping.
The survey will be using a combination of equipment including a Geometrics G858-G vertical magnetic gradiometer (VMG), a Fisher TW-6 electromagnetic metal detector (MD), and a GSSI SIR- 4000 ground penetrating radar (GPR). The VMG will be used to detect large ferrous metal objects that may represent possible USTs. It will be systematically used along traverses spaced approximately 5-ft apart in large open areas such as the parking lots and grass covered parcels, as access and site conditions allow. We will use the MD and GPR to surveys areas located near above ground objects that may cause magnetic interference to the VMG, such as the buildings and other above ground metal objects. We will also use the MD and GPR to further characterize any suspected features defined by the VMG. The survey will document the locations of all detected subsurface features on a scaled site plan.
The California Professional Geophysicist will review and process the recorded VMG field data and generate vertical magnetic gradient contour maps showing localized variations that may be due to possible subsurface sources such as USTs. The Professional Geophysicist will provide a brief letter report describing the geophysical methods, procedures, and results, as well as our interpretations. The report will include a site map in AutoCAD format showing the locations of all detected features that may be interpreted as representing USTs within the designated survey areas. The report will also include the appropriate contour maps. Depending upon the results, further intrusive work by others may be necessary to confirm our interpretation/ findings.
The report will be utilized for boring locations should the need arise for the additional Phase II ESA soil and groundwater sampling.
Optional Task 2- Fieldwork Planning/ Records Review/ Permitting Millennium will prepare a simplified work plan, including a Health and Safety Plan (HASP) for the drilling and sampling activities. The HASP will describe the minimum safety standards that shall be maintained during the proposed sampling activities. Millennium will conduct a site visit to mark proposed boring locations and observe a private utility survey for the proposed boring locations. USA 811 North will also be contacted to investigate underground utilities in public areas. Millennium will

also obtain the drilling permits and retain, coordinate, and schedule the fieldwork with the contractors/ vendors.
Optional Task 3- Fieldwork (Utility Locate, Drilling, Sampling) Millennium will retain geophysical surveying, and driller contractors to assist in locating the UST and surrounding utilities, drilling, and collecting soil and groundwater samples.
A geophysical survey will be conducted to explore the potential location of the former underground storage tank. Magnetometry and Ground Penetrating Radar: One or more of the geophysical instruments will scan the length of the survey and traverse at regular intervals in an attempt to detect the UST. Electromagnetic field detecting instruments may also be used.
The location of the UST and surrounding utilities will be marked and surveyed in the field.
Scope of Limited Soil and Groundwater Investigation:
Should an UST anomaly be detected during the geophysical survey, that the following scope of services will be proposed. Soil and groundwater sample collection will be conducted as follows:
a) Millennium will prepare a brief sampling workplan describing the sampling procedures, sampling methodologies/ decontamination procedures, and a health and safety plan to be used in the field.
b) Based on the unknown size of the tank, location of tank fill, and product lines, we recommend up to four (4) soil borings (BH-01, BH-02, BH-03, and BH-04) with samples collected at approximate 5 feet intervals from each boring to a maximum depth of 20 feet below grade (bgs) for a maximum of sixteen (16) soil samples. Deeper samples at 15 and 20 feet bgs will be placed on hold in the lab and will be analyzed only if soil samples from 5 and 10 feet bgs are elevated. The approximate location of the borings is shown in Figure 1 but will be confirmed in the field.
Depth to groundwater at this location is estimated based on available data on Geotracker at nearby sites to be anywhere from 10 to 20 feet below grade. If groundwater is encountered in the soil borings at 20 feet bgs, Millennium proposes to collect two groundwater samples. c) Since UST usage would be unknown, the following limited analysis is recommended to determine if the UST has had fuel releases to the environment:
• TPH, g,d mo EPA 8015/8021
• Volitile Organic Compumds (VOCs), including DIPE, ETBE, BTEX, TBA, TAME, Ethanol, BTEX, and Naphthalene EPA 8260B/C
• Lead by EPA 6010 / 6020
• Semi-volatile Organic Compounds (SVOCs) by EPA 8270E

Optional Task 4 - Summary Report
Millennium will prepare a final report summarizing the fieldwork, interpretation and visualization of the data, and will provide conclusions and recommendations.
Tank Removal (NOT Included in this phase)
Once the Ciry is reacfy to remove the UST, Millennium can assist ry filing the UST removal application with CUPA and retaining a California-licensed, OSHA-trained, and experienced contractor to peiform the tank cleaning, removal, and closing of the UST case.
Task 5 and 6 - Comprehensive lead-containing paint, PCBs, and asbestos inspections services - Surveying and Reporting
Given the size of the project (13-buildings) and varying sizes of buildings including multi-storied office buildings, sample planning and site access to all areas of the structures is paramount. At a high level, Millennium's strategy for this project includes the following:
o Onsite Sample Planning & Access Review includes a walkthrough of each building by Millennium inspectors to determine sampling schemes for asbestos, lead, PCBs, and Other Regulated Materials. Areas which cannot be accessed at this time will be logged and communicated with the client to ensure access is available for the surveying phase.
Additional reconnaissance will be made at this stage including the identification of special access areas (e.g., confined spaces, height constraints for aerial lifts, etc.).

o The Survey and Data Collection phase includes the sampling process of building materials for contaminants of concern.
o Reporting includes the development of the report to describe the findings and recommendations and to incorporate the requirements of the RFP. The minimum reporting requirements are:
o Sample location documentation and extent of identified hazardous materials; o Photographic logs of samples with location and sample identification; o Summary tables of estimated quantities of hazardous materials; o Analytical reports;
o Sampling team certifications
Included in the surveying task, Millennium will meet with the Project Manager and Client personnel to review any prior existing test data relating to the subject buildings at the project site prior to the start of work. Review and discuss the historic data and determine the reliability of incorporating the information into the project. Catalog Other Regulated Materials ( e.g., fluorescent lights/ballasts, other lighting of concern, exit signs, etc.). Develop sampling plans to thoroughly assess the buildings for contaminants of concern.
Project Approach for Surveying Buildings for Asbestos, Lead, and PCBs The physical surveying of the buildings includes conducting a building-by-building demolition survey in accordance with rules and regulations governing the site for building materials with the potential for asbestos, lead, PCBs, and Other Regulated Materials.
Asbestos: For asbestos, the BAAQMD Regulation 11, Rule 2 requires owners to thoroughly assess structures to identify the presences or absence of Regulated Asbestos-Containing Materials (RACM), Category I Non-Friable ACMs, and Category II Non-Friable ACMs. These inspections must be performed by Certified Asbestos Consultants and Certified Site-Surveillance Technicians.
Additionally, individuals who are in the process of becoming a CAC and/or CSST may participate in the work while under the supervision of the CAC/CSST as long as these individuals have the foundational accredited training classes (e.g., AHERA Building Inspector).
For the analysis of bulk asbestos samples, the method used is the EPA 600/R-93/116. This method is adequate to detect the concentration of asbestos in >1 %. Depending on the ACM type, additional analyses may be necessary. By rule, any friable asbestos material with a concentration of �10% must be "point counted" to confirm the concentration value or it is required to list this material as > 1 %.
The point counting analysis is a secondary method and is usually estimated at the proposal stage. ► For this proposal, Millennium is assuming five percent of samples with detected low levels of asbestos will be required to be additionally analyzed via point counting for compliance determinations.
Once ACM has been identified, categorized, and quantified into RACM, Category I Non-Friable, or Category II Non-Friable, the Owner can then present the findings to contractors for bidding purposes.
Contractors can easily change the disposition of the asbestos-containing waste material by their chosen demolition methods. At this stage, the Owner may want to restrict means and methods used by contractors to prevent Category I or II Non-Friable ACM from becoming RACM. There are
MILLENNIUM
CONSULTING ASSOCIATES

ENVIRONMENTAL SITE ASSESSMENT SERVICES
administrative and contractual techniques to accomplish this to reduce the amount of regulated waste.
These administrative and contractual techniques will be defined in the contract specifications.
Lead-Containing Materials: The regulatory environment that encompasses lead is more convoluted than asbestos due to additional rules and protections and the topic of childhood lead poisoning. The difference between these regulatory rules often applies to the level of lead detected and the matrix being sampled (i.e., coatings, dust, soil, water, or air). Similarly, during demolition projects, the issue of waste minimization ( e.g., recycling or reuse of materials such as concrete with painted surfaces) and the disposal of hazardous waste and non-hazardous waste must be defined in the project goals. ► Important: The Cal/OSHA 1532.1 lead standard has undergone significant revisions starting January 1, 2025. The demolition project for the City Hall Complex site will require compliance with the newly revised standard. Millennium can discuss in more detail the ramifications of this rule change upon request as it does impact every trade on a construction project.
Similar to asbestos, a contractor's means and methods can change the disposition of materials containing lead. The waste characterization process is an iterative process that must answer both federal and state waste rules. The analytical methods are known as the Total Threshold Limit Concentration (ITLC), Soluble Threshold Limit Concentration (STLC), and the Toxicity Characteristic Leaching Procedure (TCLP).
Any materials containing lead must be characterized by these methods if the material goes to a landfill.
There is no exemption in California to dispose of materials with intact lead-containing paint without going through the characterization process (refer to Title 22 66261.24 Characteristics of Toxicity). ► Waste characterization and re-use criteria can be a complicated topic at each stage from appropriate sampling and numbers of samples to the review of analytical data waste streams variabilities). Millennium is available to discuss in more detail if requested.
► Millennium has not included sampling or analyses for the TTLC, STLC, or TCLP methodologies for waste characterization of lead including for potential re-use criteria of concrete with paint coatings. The waste characterization and waste determination process are typically performed at the demolition phase.
Polychlorinated Biphenyls ()?CB): The requirement for the disposal of PCBs has been around for a long time (See 40 CFR 750 and 40 CFR 761, commonly known as the Mega Rule). Both Federal RCRA rules and CA specific waste rules list PCBs above certain amounts as hazardous waste. This project will require the removal and/ or minimization of suspect materials with PCBs above 50 parts per million (ppm or mg/kg) and the additional CA specific waste criteria for the STLC of 5.0 mg/L should these materials be present in the City Hall Complex. ► Important - PCBs are known to leach into porous substrates such as concrete and soils. At this time, this proposal does not include a leaching study to determine if and how far PCBs have leached into adjacent substrates. Should PCBs be identified in regulated concentrations, then additional testing may be required to minimize the PCB-waste amounts. This issue is discussed with the Client as results are received from the laboratory.

► It was noted in the Q/ A for the RFP the PCBs are at the recommendation of the consultant. For this project, PCB assessment is recommended given the Bay Area Municipal Stormwater Collaborative (BAMSC) Management of PCBs During Demolition requirement. However, discussions with the Santa Rosa Building Department indicate the department does not have a permit that requires PCB surveys prior to demolition. Even so, Owners are responsible for their waste streams and California Title 22, Section 66261.24 includes PCBs in the "List of Organic Persistent and Bioaccumulative Toxic Substances and Their Soluble Threshold Limit Concentration (STLC) and Total Threshold Limit Concentration (TTLC) Values" in (a)(2)(B) Table III.
Reporting and Specification Development
Upon completion of survey and testing, Millennium will provide the Project Manager with a written survey report detailing visual inspection, observation, material sampling, laboratory testing results, sample location maps, photographic documentation, and extent of identified contaminants of concern. The contents of the report are to meet the requirements of the agencies having jurisdiction of the site including the Bay Area Air Quality Management District and requirements of California Division of Occupational Safety and Health for communication of hazards to prospective bidders.
For materials identified with contaminant concentrations more than regulatory thresholds, provide general information and recommendations for:
► Methods or criteria to maximize work and minimize waste costs. ► Provide an estimate of construction document preparation costs. ► Estimate the amount of time required by the contractor to complete the related work.
Millennium will assist in the preparation of project construction documents for public bidding. In providing construction document services, Millennium will:
o Prepare plans, specifications, schedules and phasing for removal or containment of all hazardous materials identified in specific projects. Specifications and drawings produced will be in a format approved by the Client.
o Produce written specifications in a CSI format to provide guidelines for a qualified contractor to accomplish the removal and/ or disturbance of identified hazardous materials containing components from the project site.
o Provide Technical and Project Administrative Support, including assisting in project bid walks, review project bids/ estimates, prepare project addenda and related services as noted needed.
