RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the City Council adopt a resolution to:

1. Authorize the City Manager to, sign, apply for, and accept a United States Bureau of Reclamation WaterSMART: Water and Energy Efficiency Grant for Federal FY 24 in the amount not-to-exceed of $4,273,925 on behalf of the City of Stockton.

2. Authorize the City Manager to finalize the grant application and all information submitted for consideration and to certify that the Municipal Utilities Department has and will provide $4,273,925 in non-federal cost-share funding and/or in-kind contributions specified in the grant funding plan of $8,547,850.

3. Authorize the City Manager to certify that the City has and will comply with all statutory and regulatory requirements related to any grant funds.

4. Authorize the City Manager to negotiate and execute a financial assistance agreement and any amendments thereto on behalf of the City of Stockton.

It is further recommended that the City Manager be authorized to take all necessary and appropriate actions to carry out the purpose and intent of this resolution.

Summary
The United States Bureau of Reclamation (USBR) Sustain and Manage America’s Resources for Tomorrow (WaterSMART): Water and Energy Efficiency Grant Program (USBR WaterSMART Program) supports projects that result in quantifiable and sustained water savings, implement renewable energy components, and support broader sustainability benefits.

On March 19, 2024, the City Council approved the Municipal Utilities Department (MUD) Advanced Meter Infrastructure and Meter Replacement project. This project will replace outdated manual and touch-read meters with Advanced Meter Infrastructure (AMI) at residential, commercial/institutional, and irrigation properties within the City’s water service area to support more efficient operation, management, and conservation of potable water supplies.

In addition, MUD submitted initial grant application information for the Advanced Meter Infrastructure and Meter Placement project - Phase I to the USBR Sustain and Manage America’s Resources for Tomorrow (WaterSMART): Water and Energy Efficiency Grant Program for $4,273,925 in possible grant funding.

On August 2, 2024, the USBR provided a letter wherein it stated that it anticipates awarding a grant to the City for the project and included information needed to complete the application. To receive the $4,273,925 in program grant funding, the City must provide information and complete several pre- award clearance items (Attachment A).

Staff recommends the City Council adopt a resolution authorizing the City Manager to take all actions, including signing, applying for, accepting, and finalizing the grant application and other documentation to receive $4,273,925 from the USBR WaterSMART: Water and Energy Efficiency Grant Program for Federal Fiscal Year 2024.

DISCUSSION
Background
The USBR WaterSMART Program provides a framework for Federal leadership and assistance to stretch and secure water supplies for future generations. The Program leverages Federal and non- Federal funding to work cooperatively with States, Tribes, and local entities as they plan for and implement actions to increase water supply sustainability through investments in existing infrastructure and attention to local water conflicts.

The USBR Water and Energy Efficiency Grants
provide financial assistance to support projects that result in quantifiable and sustained water savings, implement renewable energy components, and support broader sustainability benefits.

The City’s AMI and Meter Replacement project qualifies for the grant because it will save an estimated 1,003 acre-feet per year (AFY) of potable water, which will result in an estimated energy savings of 330,589 kilowatt-hours (kWh). The AMI and Meter Replacement project will improve water management with real-time data, early leak detection, and remotely read water meters.

The City’s AMI and Meter Replacement project consists of the purchase and installation of meters, reading equipment, software, technical support, data transmission, and receiving systems. The City will replace its existing manual meter-reading system with automated AMI equipment and software.

The transition to a fully scalable AMI system will improve water conservation, energy efficiency and contribute to the sustainability of the San Joaquin River and Eastern San Joaquin Subbasin, thus supporting USBR’s water conservation goals.

Present Situation
Water demand in the City of Stockton is expected to increase by approximately 39 percent by 2045, according to the City of Stockton 2020 Urban Water Management Plan. By replacing its existing manual meter reading system with AMI, the City will reduce future water demands by improving water conservation and efficiency.

If approved by the City Council, MUD staff, at the direction of the City Manager, will complete the grant application and provide all documentation needed to receive $4,273,925 in grant funding from the USBR WaterSMART Program (Attachment A). The grant funding will be used to help fund the Advanced Meter Infrastructure and Meter Placement project - Phase I.

FINANCIAL SUMMARY
The Advanced Meter Infrastructure and Meter Placement project - Phase I (UH22001) is eligible to receive $4,273,925 in USBR WaterSMART Program grant funding. If funded, the required non- federal cost share of at least 50 percent will consist of $4,273,925 in MUD funding, totaling a minimum project cost of $8,547,850. The total approved project budget is $17,220,369.72.

Grant funding for this project is expected to be available in FY 2025 through FY 2027. Financial participation in other state and federal grant activities will be reviewed by the Department as additional opportunities become available.

There is no impact to the General Fund, or any other unrestricted fund, from this action.

AWARD A PROFESSIONAL SERVICES AGREEMENT TO GATEWAY PACIFIC CONTRACTORS, INC. TO DESIGN AND CONSTRUCT THE DELTA WATER TREATMENT PLANT GROUNDWATER

RECHARGE BASIN PROJECT

RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the City Council adopt a resolution to:

1. Approve findings pursuant to Stockton Municipal Code section 3.68.070 in support of an exception to the competitive bidding process.

2. Award a Professional Services Agreement to Gateway Pacific Contractors, Inc. of Sacramento, CA, in the not-to-exceed amount of $11,483,248 to design and construct the Delta Water Treatment Plant Groundwater Recharge Basin Project (UH21005) and associated infrastructure.

It is also recommended that the City Manager be authorized to take all appropriate and necessary actions to carry out the purpose and intent of this resolution.

Summary
The Municipal Utilities Department (MUD) investigated the potential of groundwater recharge at the Delta Water Treatment Plant (DWTP) as part of the City conjunctive water management program.

The program combines the use of surface water and groundwater in a coordinated way to ensure a reliable and sustainable water supply, particularly in dry years or during extended droughts.

To further investigate the potential for groundwater recharge at the DWTP, the MUD contracted with Geosyntec Inc. to conduct a geotechnical investigation and preparation of a hydrogeologic characterization report on a 70-acre field at the DWTP site. The report’s findings confirmed that the soil characteristics support the feasibility of constructing a groundwater recharge project at the DWTP.

Staff recommends the City Council adopt a resolution awarding a Professional Services Agreement to Gateway Pacific Contractors, Inc. of Sacramento, CA, in the not-to-exceed amount of $11, 483,248, to design and construct the Delta Water Treatment Plant Groundwater Recharge Basin Project (UH21005).

DISCUSSION
City of Stockton Printed on 9/5/2024Page 1 of 4

216
File #: 24-0851, Version: 1
Background
In 2012, the MUD dedicated the Delta Water Supply Project (DWSP), a key component of the City’s conjunctive use program and, to help balance groundwater levels in the Eastern San Joaquin Groundwater Subbasin. The DWSP provides surface water supplies to nearly 200,000 customers in north Stockton. The project included a river diversion and pumping station to convey water to the 30- million gallon per day DWTP located along Lower Sacramento Road, north of Eight Mile Road between the City of Stockton and the City of Lodi.

The DWSP was designed, in part, to protect the groundwater basin through conjunctive management of water resources and to improve the City’s water supply reliability portfolio. The construction of groundwater recharge basins adjacent to the treatment plant will increase the City conjunctive management capacity. When complete, the project will allow the City to directly recharge the groundwater basin using water from sources including Water Right Permit 21176, contract supplies from Woodbridge Irrigation District (WID), and possibly stormwater runoff from the City of Lodi. Water recharged into the groundwater basin can be stored and pumped during dry years or extended droughts. The basins will also help to balance groundwater levels in the critically over-drafted Eastern San Joaquin Groundwater Subbasin to help meet the Region’s Sustainable Groundwater Management Act requirements.

On June 14, 2022, by Resolution 2022-06-14-1208, the City Council awarded a professional services agreement to Geosyntec Inc. to perform geotechnical investigations and hydrogeologic characterization of the soil profiles at the DWTP site. Geosyntec Inc. completed the subsurface investigation in December 2023. The study confirmed the feasibility of constructing a groundwater recharge project at the DWTP.

Present Situation
On February 2, 2024, the City advertised an RFP to design and construct groundwater recharge basins at the DWTP. On April 4, 2024, four (4) proposals were received from the following firms:

Consultant Location Price
Gateway Pacific Contractors, Inc. Sacramento, CA $11,483,248 George Reed Inc. Modesto, CA $21,380,290
Goodfellow Bros. Lodi, CA $24,861,000
Mountain Cascade, Inc. Livermore, CA $20,534,862
Engineering Estimate with 10% Contingency $11,377,631
A selection committee comprised of staff and consultants evaluated and ranked all proposals based on each firm’s understanding of the work, experience with similar work, qualifications of proposed team, project approach, and cost. Gateway Pacific Contractors, Inc. met or exceeded the requirements and was found to be the most qualified based on the RFP criteria and their proposal (Attachment A). Furthermore, Gateway Pacific Contractors, Inc. was the only firm with specific experience in the design and construction of groundwater recharge basins in California.

217
File #: 24-0851, Version: 1
Findings
Pursuant to Stockton Municipal Code section 3.68.070, the City Council may approve findings which support and justify an exception to the competitive bidding process. The following findings support such an exception:

1. A strict cost-competitive basis for the selection of professional services may lower the quality and thoroughness of the services provided.

2. Use of the RFP process is appropriate for this Professional Services Agreement because it relies on the evaluation of professional qualifications and performance as the basis for the selection of a vendor, which is a typical practice for this type of work. Use of these criteria resulted in the selection of a vendor with specific experience in design and construction of groundwater recharge basins in California.

3. Considering the size, complexity, and schedule requirements of the project, the City does not have sufficient staff resources nor the expertise to design and construct a project of this size.

4. The City negotiated the contract following a regular Request for Proposal process in accordance with SMC section 3.68.070.A.3.

Staff recommends that the City Council adopt a resolution to award a Professional Services Agreement to Gateway Pacific Contractors, Inc. in the not-to-exceed amount of $11,483,248 to design and construct the Delta Water Treatment Plant Groundwater Recharge Basin Project (Exhibit 1 to the Resolution).

LOCAL EMPLOYMENT ORDINANCE
On September 1, 2009, the City Council adopted a Local Employment Ordinance requiring that 50 percent of the workforce on public works projects of at least $100,000 reside in the City of Stockton.

The contract amount for this project is more than $100,000 and subject to the Local Employment Ordinance.

COMMUNITY WORKFORCE AND TRAINING AGREEMENT
On July 26, 2016, the City Council adopted a Community Workforce and Training Agreement (CWTA). The CWTA became effective on August 25, 2016, and applies to all Public Works projects over $1,000,000 that are bid after the effective date. This project is subject to the requirements of the CWTA.

FINANCIAL SUMMARY
In 2021, the MUD applied for grant funding for project feasibility and future construction under the Department of Water Resources Sustainable Groundwater Management Act (SGMA) Round 1 grant program and the Integrated Regional Water Management Program. The project will be granted $300,000 and $2,000,000 from these programs, respectively.

Subject Proposal for the City of Stockton Design Build Services for the Delta Water Treatment Plant Groundwater Recharge Basin
Dear Ms. Garza and Members of the Selection Committee:

Gateway Pacific Contractors, Inc. and NEXGEN Utility Management, Inc. are pleased to submit this Proposal to provide design-build services for the Delta Water Treatment Plant groundwater recharge basin for the City of Stockton.

We understand the City of Stockton is seeking a reliable and cost -effective solution to maximize the beneficial use of the City’s full groundwater allotment to optimize the water supply reliability and raise groundwater levels in the Eastern San Joaquin Subbasin.

We have assembled a design -build team for the Delta Water Treatment Plant Groundwater Recharge Basin that has the design -build experience to provide you with an optimal project—on schedule and within budget. Our design -build team has maintained a full workforce in Northern California since 1987 with local offices in Northern California.

This Gateway Pacific Contractors and NEXGEN Utility Management team, with offices exclusively in California, includes the same design -build partners who have successfully partnered on recharge for the City of Colusa and the Stockton East Water District . These projects have included building 60 + acre basins, larger (48 inch +) pipes and automatic valves to recharge groundwater similar to this project.

As evidenced by the enclosed resumes, most of our expert team members have had many years of experience with the engineering and construction of municipal water projects. We know that smaller, specialized, and nimble design and construction teams are able to provide more innovative design, more highly responsive service, and more project capacity within the budget. The key to this success is maintaining dir ect involvement of the team’s most experienced staff throughout the project.

ATTACHMENT A

4.5.2 QUALIFICATIONS INFORMATION

10 Gateway Pacific has developed a good relationship with suppliers and subcontractors during our 30 years in the business. Several subcontractors that currently work for Gateway Pacific in Northern California previously worked on our projects in Oregon.

GPC, as the lead Constructor for the Team, has agreements with the ABC registered apprenticeship program approved by the California Apprenticeship Council that has graduated apprentices in each of the past five years.

Ninety-eight percent of the contracts performed by Gateway Pacific are governed by State Prevailing Wage laws. Gateway Pacific Contractors, Inc. will be providing over 70% of the labor for the project with its own employees.

We recently completed earthwork for the following projects that are comparable to what will be required by this Project:
• Biggs WWTP Pond, (Biggs, CA)
Our crews moved over 120,000 c ubic yards of dirt to create twin 50 -million gallon detention basins.
• Gray Lodge Wildlife Area Water Supply Project, (Gridley, CA) GPC rebuilt the canal system for the Gray Lodge Wildlife Area. We moved 100,000 cubic yards of dirt to create a high -capacity canal system to convey water from the Oroville Dam.
• SEWD – Raw Water Delivery Reliability Improvement Project, (Stockton, CA) In creating the 73-acre groundwater recharge basin, our crews moved 150,000 c ubic yards of dirt.

Our workforce is a dynamic group of individuals that are adaptable and well-trained in many parts of the industry. We have equipment operators on staff. We have completed many projects that included installing reinforcement steel, forming and placement of concrete.

Most of our plant work has our crews installing mechanical piping as well as equipment (i.e. pumps, generators, mixers, aeration piping, clari fier equipment, and headwork screens & compactors).

4.5.3 TECHNICAL PROPOSAL

12 To assist the City in the review of this proposal, we have included the City’s specific requests (RFP items a – v) and our responses below. We have also included a detailed scope of work in Appendix C.
a) Demonstrate the Respondent’s understanding of the RFP, describing how the Respondent intends to satisfy the requirements of the RFP and the Contract.

For completeness we have included the detailed scope of work/project understanding of the Project as Appendix C of this proposal. This information is adapted from the City’s RFP, job walk, and others from the project team. b) Describe Respondent’s understanding of the project objectives and desired outcomes.

The goal of the Recharge Basins Project is to design and construct groundwater recharge basins and associated infrastructure. The construction of groundwater recharge basins will improve water supply reliability and raise groundwater levels in the Eastern San Joaquin Subbasin. The recharge basins shall also be designed and constructed to provide benefits including habitat for birds, providing water, shelter, and/or breeding places during their migration along the Pacific Flyway.

The Recharge Basins shall be designed and constructed to achieve at least the infiltration rates rang ing from approximately 15,000 AF to 30,000 AF/year (1 -2 AF/day), assuming the basins are used 335 days/year. The design should consider operational needs and flexibility and the required maintenance of the basins.

A comprehensive geotechnical investigation was performed by Geosyntech in 2022-2023 to determine the feasibility of groundwater recharge at the site.

Electrical resistivity testing, soil borings, CPT, soil characterization/sampling, groundwater water quality sampling, and modeling were performed as part of the investigation. Groundwater wells were installed, and a utility survey was also completed as part of the project. We have reviewed this work and believe this supports the desired percolation.

13 Project construction. This is needed to pursue additional Delta diversions for groundwater recharge and to meet future potable water demand.

The figure below shows a preliminary layout of fencing and piping created by our design-build team.

This project is well-suited for Design-Build due to the extensive field work already completed and the “greenfield” nature of the site. The City will also see a compressed schedule that meets its funding constraints and will have total project costs known upfront.
c) Describe the Respondent’s intended approach toward providing the Scope of Services described in Section 3 of this RFP and otherwise achieving the City’s goals for the project.

ATTACHMENT A
242

4.5.3 TECHNICAL PROPOSAL

14 The following table includes some of our key approaches, the resulting benefits, and our team experience to meet these challenges.

Our Approach Benefits to the Project Team Experience
We will provide the City a turn-key
solution that banks water below while
creating habitat above. Our team
includes planners, geologists, landscape
architects, engineers, surveyors,
constructors, and project managers to
complete all aspects of the project.

We will provide a guaranteed
cost and firm schedule to the
city
As one nearby example, this
Team’s $6 million Recharge Basin
Project for Stockton East WD
(SEWD) was constructed in 9
months with zero change orders.

We will obtain percolation rates
described in the Feasibility Study. In
addition to removing the top 3 feet of
soil, we have shown options for
enhancing percolation within the drywell,
including over-excavating at 2:1 and
filling the entire space with angular rock.

We believe an over-excavated
drywell is a faster and safer
way to construct the wells and
will provide 10x more surface
area for percolation across the
well depth.

We have designed and constructed
eight percolation systems and
accounted for over 100,000 ac-ft a
year of recharge in California. The
60-acre basin we did for SEWD
percolates 8,600 ac-ft/ year though
clayey soils. In this project. the
over-excavation and drywell will
greatly enhance those rates.

We recommend one CEQA document
(and IS/MND) that covers both the
construction and future WTP expansion.

The technical analyses will focus on
construction emissions estimates as well
as required biological and cultural
surveys.

One comprehensive document
can be completed in nine
months and allow construction
to start in Spring of 2025.

An IS/MND is appropriate here
and is a much more
streamlined process than an
EIR.

Our Environmental permitting
team, led by Helix Environmental
Planning, has successfully
completed similar CEQA
documents for Yuba City and the
City of Modesto.

We will connect above the 54-inch raw
water pipe, neck piping and valves/ flow
meter to 24-inch above ground.

Transition to 36-inch and then to 30-inch
at each perc basin at each of those
valves.

We also recommend that the valves at
each perc basin control the flow
independently into each perc basin by
programmed setpoints at each
transducer. The valves at the connection
to the 54-inch supply would only be
needed for isolating the system
We estimate these pipe sizes
will save over $200,000 in
upfront costs and will reduce
the plant shut down time.

Our Project for the Stockton East
WD involved 60-, 54-, and 36-inch
coated steel pipes, butterfly control
valves, air release valves, and
automated metering

ATTACHMENT A
243

4.5.3 TECHNICAL PROPOSAL

15 Our Approach Benefits to the Project Team Experience We will specify and install pipe materials
and equipment that are consistent with
the existing facilities and City
Standards. For example, buried
transmission pipes shall be cement
mortar lined and coated steel pipe per
AWWA C205. Exposed pipe shall be
epoxy lined and coated.

These pipe materials and proper
bedding will minimize O&M and
extend facility life.

We have used cement mortar lined
and coated steel pipe (buried) and
epoxy coated (exposed) on most
water supply projects that use this
size pipe.

We recommend sloping the interior
levees at 3:1 to encourage habitat and
reduce wave action while maintaining
about 4 feet of water depth in the basins
themselves to discourage vegetation.

This design will create habitat
for waterfowl along the basin
perimeter but still allow a
majority of the basin to
percolate.

Our team has used approach for all
the wetland work for Ducks
Unlimited in Sutter, Yuba, and
Colusa County.

We can install perimeter fencing and
gates this year in fall to secure the site
and pre-order long lead time equipment
after the 60% Design Review. These
activities can be accomplished
independent of CEQA.

The site will be prepped and
secured for construction to start
when conditions allow in early
2025.

As one example, we installed
perimeter fencing and other
ancillary facilities to secure the site
at City of Woodland percolation
ponds so the project schedule was
not delayed by burying owl’s
mating season.

We recommend directly controlling flow
of water into each basin by having a
transducer at each stilling well modulate
the control valve directly upstream of it
This is the simplest and most
reliable way to control water
levels in each basin
We have used this control
approach successfully at Stockton
East Recharge Project

The following figure shows an overview of some of basin design features.

4.5.3 TECHNICAL PROPOSAL

16 d) City review of work products is an essential part of the working relationship with the Design - Builder. Technical proposal shall describe communications methods and tools to facilitate City review of work products at key milestones to ensure that the completed Recharge Basins meet the City’s requirements for performance and quality.

Gateway Pacific Contractors and our partner NEXGEN Utility Management, have rigorous procedures for project management. These have been developed and refined over our 30 -year history and contribute to why our clients retain us for additional work. Key elements of our management approach include:

✓ Emphasis on communication with the client and within the project team ✓ Identifying the appropriate staff to perform the work, with key senior staff involvement.

ATTACHMENT A
245

4.5.3 TECHNICAL PROPOSAL

17 ✓ Frequent comparison of planned-versus-actual budget and schedule.

The City’s PM will receive a concise progress report every month that highlights the work progress, upcoming work, and a budget update. You can call our team’s Project Manager or Principal-in-Charge at any time and discuss concerns.

Communication
All communication on the project will go through Gary Bechtel at Gateway Pacific.

During the design and permitting phase of the project , Dan Rich, P.E (NEXGEN) will also share a direct communication role with the design team and the City.

Our most direct way to communicate with you will be by meetings with you. Regular progress meetings will be scheduled monthly, during design, and weekly, during construction. We will prepare an agenda and typically forward it one week in advance so that staff is made aware of the issues to be discussed and the people required to make the necessary decisions can be in attendance. Meeting notes will be prepared for each meeting to document decisions made. Meeting notes will be distributed within three busine ss days. Items documented in the meeting notes will include:
attendees; meeting time, date, and location; record of discussion; project status; decisions made; action items; and outstanding issues. We will schedule informal meetings through our project manager to maintain proper communication channels.

These meetings can be in person or virtual, whichever is more convenient for the City’s Project Manager and staff.

Project Staffing Plan
Staffing is key to successful project management and an integral part of our quality management program. Our fundamental approach is to assemble the best qualified team to match the project requirements. We then review the scope of the project and review s taffing levels and budgets from similar projects to estimate labor requirements to complete a project. The project schedule has a significant impact on staffing planning. Project milestones are identified and labor hour requirements per task are estimated to determine staffing levels to complete the task by the milestone date. The staffing levels are broken down by discipline to determine overall office personnel planning. A database on staffing needs and current staff assignments is maintained and updated monthly, both company -wide and in our local office. The

ATTACHMENT A
246

4.5.3 TECHNICAL PROPOSAL

18 database allows us to project workloads and identify when and if staff becomes over or under committed.

Maintaining Project Schedule
Schedules are established by identifying project milestones and determining when each task must be complete to meet the milestone dates. The schedule is reviewed to determine staff requirements to
complete the project on schedule. If a
project is needed on a fast track, more
staff are assigned than for a project with
a longer schedule. On a monthly basis,
Gary will assess the percent complete for
the project. The p ercent complete is
estimated on a per task basis, in a defined
manner, and is done independen tly of
budget review. The estimated percent
complete is compared to the planned
percent complete to determine if the
project is on schedule. If the project is not
on schedule, staffing adjustments or
other corrective measures are
implemented.

Monitoring Budgets
The Project Manager has access to the labor hours charged to each job and can monitor project budgets daily. Using the cumulative hours, the percent of budget used is calculated and plotted on the project S -curve. We can then assess the following:
• Are percent complete and percent budget expended close to the planned curve?
• Are percent complete and percent budget expended curves parallel, converging, or diverging?
• Does the rate of progress match the budget expenditure rate? Schedule and labor-hour budgets are established to provide sufficient resources to complete each aspect of a project. This is monitored monthly in relation to the

ATTACHMENT A

4.5.3 TECHNICAL PROPOSAL

19 progress of the project to allow early detection of potential budget or schedule problems.
e) Present the technical aspects of the proposed plan to complete the project. It shall contain sufficient technical information to convey a clear understanding of the Scope of Services and the proposed approach toward developing Recharge Basins design criter ia for the City to ascertain the Respondent’s ability to perform under Contract. Technical proposal shall explain the rationale behind the Respondent’s intended approach to accomplish the project.

We have included a detail technical scope of work as Appendix C. f) Describe Respondent’s approach toward defining components of the Recharge Basins including but not limited to civil/site work, structural design, mechanical, electrical, SCADA, CMMS.

We have attached example Contract Documents that this team completed (Gateway Pacific and NEXGEN) for the Stockton East Water District that was completed in 2020. Similar to the Delta Recharge Project, the SEWD project was a 60-acre recharge basin with 60, 54, 48 and 36 concrete cylinder and lined welded steel pipe, automated control valves, meters, and habitat creation. This project was the archetype for the plant’s new SCADA and CMMS systems. There was considerable detail in how these large valves are co ntrolled to open slowly to avoid damaging surge conditions and automation to make sure the basins stay full and, if necessary, route water directly to the plant or to different basins. g) Detailed design and construction services, including approach to developing the design, cost model, preconstruction services, construction, start up and commissioning, and project closeout.

A general flowchart of each phase during project design , and a checklist of what information is cemented in each phase, is provided below. We have successfully implemented this approach with every design project.

21 h) Detailed approach to evaluate the Feasibility Study and make any recommended changes.

As part of this proposal effort , we have reviewed the Feasibility Study and associated geotechnical investigations. We note that the perc olation basin we designed and built for the Stockton East Water District achieved similar percolation rates through the basin’s bottom as estimated in the Feasibility Study.

Therefore, our focus with the City will be to make sure the drywells are constructed for maximum flowrates and to minimize clogging. i) Innovative ideas to reduce schedule, cost, improved O&M, enhance project performance, or other benefits.

Our ideas to shorten schedule and cost include:

1) Complete both the basin construction and DWTP expansion in one CEQA IS/ MND document. This will save time and budget. 2) Pre-ordering long lead time equipment (valves, actuators, control panels, and possibly pipe) after the 60 percent design review. As the City is probably aware, electrical switchgear can take 40 weeks or more to procure nowadays.
3) Fencing and securing the expanded site in late 2024 so work can begin in 2025. This effort is independent of CEQA documentation.

Our ideas to improve O&M and enhance performance include:
1) Installing a baffle curtain at each forebay’s overflows (drawing included below) to minimize sediment into percolation basin. 2) Consider over- excavating the drywell to increase percolation area through additional rock fill (see figure below).

23 3) The 24-inch drain line could be constructed of corrugated HDPE pipe, perforated , and backfilled with gravel to allow percolation along its 2,400 -foot length. The City could achieve additional recharge without much additional cost.
4) There are many options for the visitors parking and observation area. For the purpose of establishing a preliminary budget, we have assumed there will be a short walk to the viewing area that will be raised a few feet to allow visitors to look over the fence , a 500 sf shade structure, handrail, and two weather proof signs mounted on pedestals. The area around the visitors viewing area will be natural- type landscaping and irrigation. An example of our team’s project in Elk Grove is shown below.

5) We consulted with Ducks Unlimited (one of our long -standing clients) regarding this project, and they suggested constructing islands with several bird houses, bird perches, and snags (like poles or dead trees) for raptors.

4.5.3 TECHNICAL PROPOSAL

24 Our ideas to reduce costs include:

1) Connecting into the 54-inch supply above instead of below the pipe.

This will also reduce plant shut down time during tie-in. 2) Necking down the 36-inch pipe to 24-inch at the 54 inch connection and to 30 inch at each percolation basin. We believe there is sufficient pressure to make these reductions and still deliver desired flows to each basin. This will allow smaller valves and flowmeters at these locations (see figure below).

3) The costs to install five 200-foot deep nested monitoring wells are several hundred thousand dollars . We have shown those costs in our cost proposal , but the City could also consider the costs of shallow wells or some combination of deep and shallow wells.

Savings to reduce the number of wells is included in the cost proposal.
4) Excluding the barbed wire at the top of the new fencing around the

ATTACHMENT A
253

4.5.3 TECHNICAL PROPOSAL

25 ponds will result in fairly significant savings. Cost savings for this approach are included in cost proposal.
5) If budgets are constrained, we have included an option for the City to remove Basin and Forebay #3 completely . This item has been credited separately in the cost estimate.
6) We have included an option to eliminate 1,350 linear feet of concrete weirs and wood baffles at the overflow of the forebay. This item has been credited separately in the cost estimate. j) Approach to Quality Control and Quality Assurance.

Our team has developed defined Quality Control Procedures, including:
✓ We will prepare a Project Checklist that lists various project steps. This checklist guides the project team to identify the necessary quality management steps. The checklist helps confirm that the project follows our quality management procedures. This can include special permits and regulatory approvals that could affect schedule, teaming arrangements, and project delivery issues. ✓ NEXGEN has developed several design aid manuals and other Quality Control Tools.

These manuals are maintained both as hard copies and on our intranet. These documents are regularly used on our projects to provide a consistent approach to quality management.
✓ A work plan is established to sequence the work effort, outlines when work needs to occur within the project schedule, schedules meeting times, identifies topics of discussion at the meetings, highlights key decisions to be made, and tracks the status of the project deliverables.
✓ A Project Management Plan documents the lines of communication, overall schedule, project scope and budget, staffing plan, and any special requirements . Projects receive a series of reviews at various project points as part of the Quality Control Procedures. These include a peer review at the 30 percent design phase and owner review at set milestones (60 and 90 -percent). These checklists will be modified b ased on the particular task order that we will work on under the contract.

26 k) Understanding of site conditions.

This project is unique in that there are many elements that each cost several hundred thousand dollars to complete:
✓ Perimeter Fencing
✓ Moving and stockpiling dirt
✓ Forebay construction
✓ Levee Construction
✓ Deep monitoring wells
✓ Welded steel pipe procurement and installation (this is probably the single largest cost)
✓ Control valves and metering
✓ Drywell construction
✓ Visitors viewing and parking area
As a result, it requires the team to focus on each project element and understand how changes to one area could impact system performance and project costs. l) Risk identification and mitigation plan.

See above discussion on site conditions.
m) Development of a definitive project schedule, clearly defining all major tasks, milestones, interdependencies, and critical path.

Our team schedule is included on the next page.

4.5.3 TECHNICAL PROPOSAL

28 n) Approach to cost control through the use of early procurement and work packages.

Our approach is to complete non -CEQA related construction this year (fencing, gates, possibly some access road improvements) to allow construction to start in early 2025.

We will order long-lead time equipment after City review of the 60 Percent Design.

This is described in the section above.
o) Detailed internal and external communication plans.

See section above on Project Management
p) Approach to managing cost escalation.

We are committing to a total project costs and schedule as part of this proposal.

Our company has a proven track record of controlling costs and we encourage the City to discuss this with our references. We note that our project for SEWD’s Perc Basin was a $6 million construction project that had zero cost change orders.

As described previously, our approach is to provide the City with a detailed schedule of values at the beginning of the project and each month we would track “percent complete” on each task and subtask.
q) Approach to selecting and managing subconsultants and subcontractors.

We have worked with this team of subconsultants and subcontractors for the last 20 years. They represent the very best expertise and value to the City. Specifically:
• The Design Team : NEXGEN (Civil/Mechanical Design), Control Point (Electrical and Controls Design), Raney Geotechnical (Geotech) and Helix (Environmental and Landscape Design). This group successfully completed our work for Stockton East, Wheatland, Auburn, Colusa, and West Sacramento. Our teams ’ surveyor is Matt Rodgers at MRPE, who completed the survey for the Feasibility Study. • The Construction Team : Gateway Pacific Team will consist of the same personnel that constructed the Stockton East Water District Ground Recharge Project. Evan Lundin and Gary Bechtel will continue over sight of the Design Build and Construction. Jay Hall will be the Project Manager assisting Gary Heim our Superintendent/Project Manager full time on site. Our Subcontractors (listed in

ATTACHMENT A
257

4.5.3 TECHNICAL PROPOSAL

29 the fee proposal) have all worked with Gateway Pacific on past projects. Gateway Pacific has 40 employees to select from in and around Stockton and Sacramento area. Most of them worked on the SEWD project.
r) Approach to cost control and change management.

Discussed in Project Management above.
s) Approach to operator engagement and training.

Consistent with the RFP, we have several design deliverables (initial validation, 30%, 60%, 90% and final). At e ach of these milestones , we will conduct a workshop with City operations and engineering staff. General themes to be discussed include:
1) How is water controlled into each basin.
2) What failsafes exist if water overflows a basin
3) Are valves controlled as open / close or do they modulate. 4) The importance of valves closing slowly to avoid surge conditions. 5) If a valve fails, does it fail open or closed.
6) What alarms are desired.
7) Access to the valves and flow meter for maintenance
8) Expectations for drywell repair and maintenance
9) Frequency of forebay cleaning operations and access for vehicles and equipment.
10) Trade-offs between emerging vegetation along perimeter for habitat creation and additional maintenance along the levees.
t) Procedures to develop the design, project management, QA/QC, permitting, key risk factors, and other services described in Section 3 as follows:
i. Procurement of equipment and materials separately from construction phase as necessary to achieve project delivery schedule.

Discussed above.
ii. Integration with the City’s SCADA system.

Our electrical and controls engineer ControlPoint has worked with the City’s SCADA consultant John Wooton on several projects and is currently working with

ATTACHMENT A
258

4.5.3 TECHNICAL PROPOSAL

30 him and NEXGEN on the City of Galt’s WWTP upgrade. We routinely program in City’s Aveva (Wonderware) SCADA software.
iii. Compliance with all permitting terms and conditions.

Our scope includes all work for an approved Mitigated Negative Declaration for the project construction and DWTP expansion, as well as all permitting needed for drilling of monitoring wells.
iv. Compliance with all environmental mitigation requirements if required.

See above.
v. Completion of all construction per the approved drawings and specifications.

Due to the numerous similarities in project scope between this and our project for Stockton East Water District, we have provided the Contract Documents for that project as a separate attachment.
vi. Site safety and security during construction including coordination of site visits.

At Gateway Pacific, our goal is to create a Safety Culture that is valued and prioritized by the entire organization beginning with upper management. Our Safety is our highest priority and is instilled within the Gateway family as a mindset we enhance each day. All employees are encouraged to be our eyes and ears in the workplace and to immediately take action to remedy the problem and/or stop work and notify supervision whenever an unsafe situation is discovered. To this end, Gateway Pacific is committed to providing employees with the proper equipment, PPE, training and safe work procedures to make informed decisions and achieve our objective of no lost time incidents.

All project sites hold weekly tailgate safety meetings directed by our experienced Site Superintendents. Site superintendents are kept current in the following areas of safety training:
• First Aid/CPR
• Personal Protective Equipment (PPE)
• Housekeeping/Site Cleanliness

Description of Service: Stockton East Water Treatment Plant, Storage, and Recharge Basin Project
NEXGEN completed design and construction support for new pipelines, control valves, percolation and pretreatment basins at the Stockton East Water Treatment Plant.

Gateway Pacific Con tractors was the General Contractor on this important project.

The plant has capacity to treat 60 mgd and serves several hundred thousand residences and businesses in Stockton.

The plant is supplied by two different water sources that are conveyed in two separate 54 inch and 60 inch transmission pipes. Our project added a new 60 MG percolation and
pretreatment basin and eight large (36-inch, 48-inch, and 54- inch) control valve structures to allow the water to be automatically routed to different basins or processes. About 5,000 feet of 48 -, 54-, and 60-inch cement lined and treated steel cylinder pipe was designed and constructed.

The project included hydraulic modeling of 10 miles of
transmission piping and a surge analysis to minimize
transient conditions that can occur with larger flows and long pipes like this.

The project was located near sensitive Native American
historical sites. We hired a team of a dozen archaeologists to canvas the site, carefully auger 5 foot soil samples in 50 foot grids and determine the presence of any artifacts. The approach was endorsed and the results supported by tribes in the area and allowed the project to be constructed without any delays or added costs.

The project was also the District’s first significant design build project. Gateway Pacific gave the District a firm cost based on our 60% design documents. The approach allowed the
project to be constructed over one year instead of two. There were zero cost change orders on this project.

PROJECT EXPERIENCE
Pump Station Design Experience
City of West Sacramento Coke Street Pump
Station Upgrades (2019-2020). Dan served as
Project Manager for design and construction of
upgrades for two sewer pump stations (Coke
Street and Triangle lift station upgrades had a
combined construction cost of $1.42 million).

Coordinated field surveying and mapping,
condition assessment, hydraulic evaluation,
coordinated with geotechnical engineering and
structural sub-consultants. Design included a new
wet well made of fiber reinforced plastic (FRP),
two submersible pumps, emergency bypass
connection to the force main, emergency
generators, FOG and odor control, and a secure
concrete building. Provided constructability review,
bid support, and engineering support during
construction.

City of West Sacramento Triangle Lift Station
(2021). NEXGEN utilized the same design as the
Coke Street PS for the Triangle Lift Station. This
resulted in significantly reduced costs in design
and construction.

City of Auburn Pump Station Rehabilitation
Projects (ongoing). Dan is the Project Manager
for four PS upgrades (Vista, Monicello, Vintage
Oaks, Diamond Ridge) which included the
following improvements:
✓ New standby generators
✓ Odor scrubbers

keep everyone informed of latest updates during
the project.

City of Wheatland Regional Sewer Project
Pump Station Design (Current). NEXGEN
performed an alternatives analysis to determine
the best regionalization option for the City of
Wheatland’s wastewater treatment. We
determined that a pipeline to a neighboring
community’s WWTP was the most cost effective
solution. NEXGEN is working with the City to
determine placement of the 3 pump stations
required to transport Wheatland’s wastewater.

All three pump stations are being designed with
submersible pumps, a “trench” style concrete wet
well with epoxy liners to allow self-cleaning
operation, grade valves and flow meter, alarms
and operation tied to City SCADA, a control
building, and an emergency generator or diesel

PROJECT EXPERIENCE

City of Wheatland – Regional Sewer Pipeline
Project (2020-Present). This $120 million
regionalization project is designed to convey the
entire City of Wheatland sewer flow to the OPUD
wastewater collection system approximately 5
miles to the north. It involves the replacement of
one sewer pump station at a constrained site, a
new large pump station with on-site equalization
storage, and a booster station to convey peak
flows to an OPUD pump station.

Joe’s work is primarily on the pump station design
and includes coordination with several other firms
and Cities’ staff on the pipeline design, WWTP
decommissioning, and necessary improvements at
the OPUD facilities. The work also requires
coordination with the development community,
State and other regional agencies for grant
funding, and PG&E for utility coordination,
including relocation of transmission lines.

The project incorporates self-cleaning wet well
design, extensive odor abatement, and SCADA
improvements that will incorporate the City of
Wheatland “satellite” lift stations in one unified
system that will allow full monitoring and
operations of the pumping systems from a new
central control building. The control building as
well as City maintenance facilities will be located
at the largest of the new Pump Stations.

City of Auburn Pump Station Improvements
(2020-Present)
✓ Vista del Valle PS (2020-21)
✓ Diamond Ridge PS (2022-23)
✓ SCADA Upgrades (System-wide) (2023)
The City of Auburn proactively budgeted to
refurbish their aging sewer pump stations at a rate
of one per year. This work typically requires
construction of a new submersible pump wet well
while the existing station remains in service, all on
constricted neighborhood sites.

Improvements are focused on replacing aging
equipment, increasing reliability, and incorporating
SCADA systems to allow remote monitoring and
operations. A key upgrade is the use of engine
driven pumps, in lieu of generators, to address
power outages and provide dual redundant
pumping capacity.

Joe’s work as Project Manager included design,
environmental (neighborhood) impact mitigation,
easement coordination, and bid and construction
services. The Vista del Valle project was bid

City of Auburn WWTP – 2020 Sludge
Dewatering Upgrades (2020-2023). Joe served
as Project Manager for this $7 million project
which replaced an aging belt filter press process
with a screw press in a new building and truck
loading dock. It also upgraded several other
WWTP facilities including major upgrades to the
plant water system, influent sewer bypass and
metering facility, and the RAS/WAS system.

The project included integration of the dewatering
facility into the WWTP SCADA system allowing
remote operation and monitoring of the process, a
screw conveyor loading system, and a process
pipe trench in the building to allow future process
modifications/additions and provide full
containment for chemical spills. The emergency
shower heating system is utilized to provide
hydronic floor heating to the main process room to
provide a comfortable winter working environment
even with full ventilation as required when
handling sludge.

Calaveras County Water District – West Point
and Wilseyville Wastewater Treatment
Facilities Consolidation Project (2021-2022).

Joe served as Project Manager for this project
which replaced an aging pond treatment system
with a pump station and pipeline to convey raw
sewage to an adjacent recirculating sand filter
WWTP. It also incorporates a septage receiving
and sludge handling facility at the WWTP. The
raw sewage pipeline is routed through
environmentally and historically sensitive areas.

The sludge handling facility includes dual
stabilization basins with a triple duty pump station
which can decant, recirculate/aerate, and remove
sludge from the basins. The removed sludge is
then dewatered in a series of draining dumpsters
which can be directly transported to off site
disposal or reuse sites, thereby minimizing WWTP
staff labor.

Joe’s work included coordination with State
funding staff for environmental clearance and he
assisted in obtaining a doubling of the initial $4
million grant to cover COVID related escalations in
construction costs.

work which consisted of on-site inspection of the
City of Willows sewer lift stations and WWTP and
resulted in recommendation a series of staged
capital improvement projects, short term and long
term, so the City could set appropriate future
sewer rates and connection fees.

Major factors included wear and tear of facilities
and projection of remaining useful life, operator
and public safety, regulatory requirements, and
ease of maintenance. This was a competitively
bid project and was completed 5% under budget.

City of Colfax WWTP – Algae Removal Project
(2019 – Present). The Colfax WWTP has
significant equalization storage to manage large
I&I flows before tertiary treatment and discharge to
a sensitive mountain stream. Algae that grows in
the equalization basin has plagued the tertiary
filter systems as it tends to clog them and require
diversion of unfit effluent back to storage. Several
algae removal processes have been tried over 10
years and all failed due to clogging and
unsatisfactory performance.

This project, to be constructed in 2023, will utilize
the innovative SAF (Suspended Air Floatation)
system to remove algae without filtration. Joe
coordinated with the manufacturer to pilot test the
system at the WWTP and Joe designed the site
and process improvements required to fully
incorporate this process into the WWTP. Design
work also identified significant deficiencies in the
aging WWTP power distribution and SCADA
systems.

Joe, as Project Manager, worked with multiple
electrical engineers, City staff and system
integrators to design upgrades included in this
grant funded project to address the deficiencies
and allow full tablet based control of the facilities
both on and off site.

City of Dixon WWTP – Solids Handling Plan
(2022-2023). The 2017 Dixon WWTP
Improvements Project was completed with the
plan for waste sludge to be stabilized in basins

(SSB)which would be periodically drained and the
residual dried sludge sent to the local landfill.

Dixon is now planning to double the WWTP
capacity and with new State regulations that
discourage landfill disposal of organic wastes they
requested alternative plans for long term
sustainability in sludge handling.

Joe worked with WWTP staff, and used Nexgen’s
experience with other similar facilities, to carefully
assess operational data and special lab testing to
confirm that the SSBs can be drained and the
sludge dried in place to produce Class A
exceptional quality sludge without requiring
expensive additional processes. The exceptional
quality sludge will be utilized on-site on a 120 acre
field leased by a local farmer and/or be made
available to the local farmers as unrestricted soil
amendment/fertilizer, resulting in substantial long-
term savings to the City, compared to conventional
alternatives.

City of Auburn/CALTRANS – Highway 49
Roundabout Project (2020-Present). Caltrans is
constructing a new roundabout at a major State
Highway intersection in the City of Auburn. The
necessary site grading will hit existing sewer
piping, necessitating a realignment of sewer pipes
and manholes in the vicinity of the Project.

As Project Manager, Joe worked with Caltrans,
UPRR, City staff, and other utilities to design the
new sewer alignment which will be constructed in
early 2023.

Bodega Bay P.U.D. – Chlorine Bleach
Conversion Project (2022-Present). The
Bodega Bay WWTP currently uses gaseous
chlorine for disinfection. This project is to install a sodium hypochlorite facility as a safer and more
sustainable disinfectant.

As Project Manager, Joe evaluated the existing
structure and coordinated with WWTP staff to
develop a plan for a new fiberglass structure to
enclose the chemical storage tank and metering
pumps, while providing full containment in case of
tank failure. Joe also coordinated electrical design
work necessary to upgrade the existing electrical
distribution system and SCADA programming
necessary for this project.

Stockton East Water District – Phase 1 North
Site Groundwater Recharge Project (2017 to
2019). Joe was the lead engineer for design and
construction support for new pipelines, control
valves, percolation, and pretreatment basins at the
Stockton East Water Treatment Plant. This project
added a new 60 MG percolation and pretreatment
basin and eight large (36-inch, 48-inch, and 54-
inch) control valve structures to allow the water to
be automatically routed to different basins or
processes. About 5,000 feet of 48, 54 and 60-inch
cement lined and treated steel cylinder pipe was
designed and constructed.

Georgetown Divide PUD – Auburn Lake Trails
WTP Improvement Project (2017-2019). Joe
provided on-site construction management and
inspection services throughout the course of the
$10.5 million water treatment plant construction
project. A key challenge was working with the
agency to keep the old failing plant on-line while
commissioning the new facilities with
inexperienced construction staff.

City of Dixon – Wastewater Treatment Plan
Permitting and Improvements Project (2005-
2017). Joe was responsible for developing the
studies and negotiating with the Regional Board to
rescind a precedent-setting Cease and Desist
Order related to salinity compliance. A series of
public hearings occurred over five years and
ultimately a process was selected that could meet
the salinity requirements at a savings to the
community of over $30 million compared with the
conventionally-proposed reverse osmosis process.

Joe continued to serve as Project
Manager/Designer on the $28.5 million WWTF
Improvements Project. This is a design that,
instead of utilizing an energy intensive and
expensive reverse osmosis system, replaces an
ageing pond system while conserving more than

30% of the City’s annual water use that was
previously lost to evaporation and returns it to the
local aquifer as high-quality recharge.

He also served as Construction Manager on this
project and worked with the Contractor after
bidding to value engineer the project to mitigate
cost escalations as the project was delayed by
years due to a citizens group legal challenges.

The value engineering changes involved a deletion
of $4 million from the bid project and an addition of
less than $3 million in alternative facilities for a net construction savings of more than $1 million,
thereby meeting the City’s funding budget for the
project.

This project included the design, environmental
permitting and construction monitoring of a 2.1-
mile-long 12” diameter water pipeline as a change
order when the planned on-site well became too
expensive to drill due to the drought. Defining
property owner constraints as well as coordination
with Solano County road agencies were important
to the successful installation of the water pipeline.

The project also included approximately 3,200 feet
of 24-inch gravity flow effluent pipe and 1200 feet
of 16- to 18-inch process pipe.

The entire existing WWTF was bypassed for the
duration of construction with a dual redundant
electric/diesel pump system rated at 1,800 gpm
capacity. The bypass system included a cellular
alarm monitoring system and operated as intended
for the duration of construction.

This project was completed in 2017 and was
recognized with the Envision Silver Sustainability
Award by the Institute for Sustainable
Infrastructure which evaluates all lifecycle phases
of the Project from planning through
decommissioning.

City of Lincoln – Wastewater Treatment Plant
Expansions. This project involved a series of
expansions of an aging existing WWTP over
several years as a new replacement facility was
constructed at another site as part of a major City
development expansion. A portion of the
expansion processes were located in proximity to
the new replacement facility so that they could be
incorporated as part of that facility and not “thrown
away”.

Joe’s work included I/I analysis, and design and
commissioning WWTP hydraulic and process
improvements. These included a 195 mg storage
reservoir, five-mile effluent pipeline, and 300 acres
of reclamation disposal fields. The 1.4 mgd
expansion was completed $100,000 under budget
and included an innovative wet well siphon
connection to return an abandoned pump station
to service. The effluent pipeline crossed a creek
with sensitive habitat. The 2.0 mgd expansion was
similarly under budget and included provision for a
final process expansion to 2.4 mgd. All of the
effluent disposal upgrades were incorporated into
the new Title 22 replacement facility.

City of Lincoln WWTRF – Phase 1 Earthwork
Project, Phase 2 WWTRF Project. Joe served on
this $7-million Phase 1 project involving the design
of the first portion of a new $40 million Phase 2
Title 22 treatment facility. Included are 250 mg of
storage basins approximately one-mile of large
diameter pipelines, and four pump stations that
provided interim disposal capacity for the City’s
existing WWTP. Excess fill from the construction
of the Phase 1 facilities were used to raise the site
of the Phase 2 facilities to be well above potential
flooding elevations.

Once the new Title 22 plant was built, these
facilities were integrated as emergency storage
and trace metals effluent compliance process
components. The basins were designed with
wetland marsh regions to complete a planned
adjacent wetland restoration area. The facility now
serves as a popular regional birding observation
area open to the public
Joe also served as a design engineer and
provided design services during construction and
start-up services for the new Title 22 treatment
facility. This facility included large process piping
installations: 600 LF of 36-inch, 1,600 LF of 42-
inch, 2,800 LF of 48-inch, 300 LF of 54-inch, 400
LF of 60-inch, and 200 LF of 66-inch PVC and T-
lock line reinforced concrete pipe.

Joe DiGiorgio P.E.

Senior Engineer

NEXGEN Utility Management, Inc.

City of Lincoln – Chambers and Douglas Drive
Project. This project involved approximately
2,500 LF of 30” diameter sewer pipe that was
designed to serve as a pressure force main to
initially convey flows from the old WWTP to the
new WWTRF disposal ponds. It was converted to
a gravity sewer line as downstream gravity pipes
up to 66” diameter were installed to the new
WWTRF and the old WWTP was taken off line.

Joe served as a design engineer and engineering
services during construction, including the 180 LF
creek crossing, and working with affected
landowners during construction.

City of Lincoln – Mid-West Placer Regional.

Pipeline Project. A key aspect of this
regionalization project involved the design of the
control facilities and on-site improvements for a
five-mile long recycled water distribution line to
local farms for crop irrigation. This project allows
for the Regional WWTRF to avoid discharges to a
sensitive stream when necessary for permit
compliance and provides a drought proof supply to
a local farm that can avoid pumping water from the
local over drafted aquafer. Joe coordinated
construction work with farming operations and
negotiated easements and State required recycled
water use agreements with property owners.

The raw sewage component was a 16-mile 22-
inch diameter force main which included a 66LF,
34-inch diameter jack and bore tunnel for a steel
casing pipe under State Hwy 193. The design
also had two horizontal direction drilling locations,
one 300 LF across Auburn Ravine Creek, the
other 200 LF across Doty Ravine.

City of West Sacramento – Sewer Force Main
Project. Joe served as a design engineer for this
project. Work included modeling a complicated
sewer force main system that pumped to an aging
WWTP located on the highest ground in the City.

The system and pump stations needed to be
modified to tie into the Sacramento regional gravity
trunk collection system. The modeling identified
optimum tie-in configurations and recommended
modifications to seven major pumping facilities.

Joe was also the design engineer to implement the
changes to the force main and pumping system as
the City decommissioned its WWTP and directed
sewage flow into the Sacramento Regional
system.

The design work came in well under budget as Joe
utilized the newly available Google Earth system
to produce construction drawings, instead of costly
ground and aerial surveys that were typical for
such work at the time.

Mountain House CSD - 30-Inch Water
Transmission Main, Main Pump Station, and
Booster Pump Station. Joe served as Project
Manager and Project Engineer for this project,
which was conceived to service a new community
and included a raw water intake pump station, 5-
mile-long 30-inch raw water pipeline and 2-mile-
long 30-inch potable water pipeline. Joe’s work
included design and engineering services during
construction, right of way acquisition; and
coordinating with three counties, State DWR, and
Federal BOR. The main pump station is located
on the Central Valley Project aqueduct just
upstream of the Banks pumping plant and required
30-foot-tall sheet piles and dewatering to
construct. Continuous access through the
construction work area was required to maintain
aqueduct operations.

The raw water pipeline crosses the Delta-
Mendota canal, a State Highway and UPRR
railroad tracks and then and parallels the UPRR
R/W. The crossing of the state highway and
UPRR tracks necessitated boring and jack
tunneling to install a 180 LF 42-inch diameter steel
casing pipe. Early coordination with UPRR and oil
pipeline owners avoided costly delays when fuel
contaminated soils were encountered.

The potable water pipeline continues parallel to
the UPRR tracks and Chevron fuel lines with two
perpendicular jack and bore tunnel locations to
install 42-inch diameter steel casing pipes under
the RR tracks, fuel lines and State Highway. One
was 144 LF the other 177 LF.

Joe also assisted with permitting work for the
community wastewater discharge to the sensitive
waters of the Delta.

convey raw sewage to the City of Fairfield
collection system for years but were facing
increasing flows, rising maintenance costs, and
concerns for worker safety. A brand-new
replacement pump station proposed by another
firm was too expensive.

Joe evaluated the existing pumping structure for
concrete and metal corrosion, and structural
compliance with new equipment loading and
recent seismic code compliance and found the old
dry pit could be rehabilitated and converted to a
new wet well with submersible pumps at a 30%
total project savings. This project required a
bypass pumping plan on a 24-inch sewer that was
active for the duration of construction.

City of Fresno – Sewer Rehabilitation/Bypass
Project. Joe’s work was under contract to a
sewer slip-lining firm and consisted of third-party
engineering review of proposed sewer bypass
plans. Work included close coordination with City
sewer staff, affected home and business owners,
railroads and State transportation agencies.

Projects included:
✓ Milbrook & Ashlan Avenue; 15,675 LF of 18-
24-inch, 7 bypasses, 2,500 gpm, 4 weeks
each
✓ S. Maple Avenue; 989 LF of 27-inch, 2
bypasses, 1,100 gpm
✓ E. California & S. East Avenue; 2,271 LF of
30-inch, 4 bypasses, 1,000 gpm
✓ Garland Avenue; 2,750 LF of 27-inch, 2

✓ Iowa/Blackstone Avenue; 11,750 LF of 15 to
21-inch, 10 bypasses, 1,500 gpm
✓ N. Del Mar Avenue; 4,200 LF, 3 bypasses,
1,500 gpm
City of Stockton -North Stockton Interim Sewer
Improvement Project. Joe served as Project
Engineer during construction, primarily involved
with equipment troubleshooting and design
remedies during construction related to pump
vibrations. This project included improvements to
seven major pumping plants and installation of
large diameter gravity flow sewer pipes to 39 mgd.

The March Lane sewer improvement component
included monitoring installation of 5,180 LF of 18
to 24-inch sewer pipe in open trenches in a busy
thoroughfare and a 165 LF jack and bore 33-inch
diameter tunnel across Eldorado Street under
numerous utilities. Bypass and dewatering
pumping, as well as traffic control, were required.

City of Stockton – North Area Pump Stations
Control Modifications Project
Joe was Project Manager for this work which
involved analysis of the control modifications
required to integrate the network of North Area
pump stations with the nearly completed 66-inch
diameter Westside sewer project and design of
equalization storage facilities. Several North Area
pump stations were switched over to pump to the
Westside system to relieve a bottleneck in the
North Area System. The initial excess capacity
volume in the large diameter system was utilized
to provide equalization storage during peak sewer
flow events which allowed postponement of
bottleneck relief projects for years until funding
became available.

City of Woodlake - WWTP Improvements. Joe
provided design and engineering services during
construction for this $20 million project which
converted an existing pond treatment plant to
oxidation ditch activated sludge. He provided
inspection services for the local CM firm and
spoke at and coordinated the public dedication

COMMERCIAL AUTOMOBILE BROAD FORM

ENDORSEMENT

This endorsement modifies insurance provided under the following:

BUSINESS AUTO COVERAGE FORM

To the extent that the provisions of this endorsement provide broader benefits to the "insured" than other provisions of the Coverage Form, the provisions of this endorsement apply.

1. BROAD FORM INSURED
Paragraph .1. - WHO IS AN INSURED - of
Section II - Liability Coverage is amended to
add the following:
d. Subsidiaries and Newly Acquired or
Formed Organizations
The Named Insured shown in the
Declarations is amended to include:
(1) Any legal business entity other than a
partnership or joint venture, formed as a
subsidiary in which you have an
ownership interest of more than 50% on
the effective date of the Coverage Form.

However, the Named Insured does not
include any subsidiary that is an
"insured" under any other automobile
policy or would be an "insured" under
such a policy but for its termination or
the exhaustion of its Limit of Insurance.
(2) Any organization that is acquired or
formed by you and over which you
maintain majority ownership. However,
the Named Insured does not include any
newly formed or acquired organization:
(a) That is a partnership or joint
venture,
(b) That is an "insured" under any other
policy,
(c) That has exhausted its Limit of
Insurance under any other policy, or
(d) 180 days or more after its
acquisition or formation by you,
unless you have given us notice of
the acquisition or formation.

Coverage does not apply to "bodily
injury" or "property damage" that results
from an "accident" that occurred before
you formed or acquired the organization.
e. Employees as Insureds
(1). Any "employee" of yours while using a
covered "auto" you don't own, hire or
borrow in your business or your
personal affairs.
f. Lessors as Insureds
(1). The lessor of a covered "auto" while the
"auto" is leased to you under a written
agreement if:
(a) The agreement requires you to
provide direct primary insurance for
the lessor and
(b) The "auto" is leased without a
driver.

Such a leased "auto" will be considered a
covered "auto" you own and not a covered
"auto" you hire.
g. Additional Insured if Required by Contract
(1) When you have agreed, in a written
contract or written agreement, that a
person or organization be added as an
additional insured on your business auto
policy, such person or organization is an
"insured", but only to the extent such
person or organization is liable for
"bodily injury" or "property damage"
caused by the conduct of an "insured"
under paragraphs a. or b. of Who Is An
Insured with regard to the ownership,
maintenance or use of a covered "auto."
The insurance afforded to any such
additional insured applies only if the
"bodily injury" or "property damage"
occurs:
(a) During the policy period, and
(b) Subsequent to the execution of such
written contract, and

ATTACHMENT A
307

Page 2 of 5 ends

(c) Prior to the expiration of the period
of time that the written contract
requires such insurance be provided
to the additional insured.
(2) How Limits Apply
If you have agreed in a written contract
or written agreement that another
person or organization be added as an
additional insured on your policy, the
most we will pay on behalf of such
additional insured is the lesser of:
(a) The limits of insurance specified in
the written contract or written
agreement; or
(b) The Limits of Insurance shown in
the Declarations.

Such amount shall be a part of and not
in addition to Limits of Insurance shown
in the Declarations and described in this
Section.
(3) Additional Insureds Other Insurance
If we cover a claim or "suit" under this
Coverage Part that may also be covered
by other insurance available to an
additional insured, such additional
insured must submit such claim or "suit"
to the other insurer for defense and
indemnity.

However, this provision does not apply
to the extent that you have agreed in a
written contract or written agreement
that this insurance is primary and non-
contributory with the additional insured's
own insurance.
(4) Duties in The Event Of Accident, Claim,
Suit or Loss
If you have agreed in a written contract
or written agreement that another
person or organization be added as an
additional insured on your policy, the
additional insured shall be required to
comply with the provisions in LOSS
CONDITIONS 2. - DUTIES IN THE

EVENT OF ACCIDENT, CLAIM , SUIT
OR LOSS – OF SECTION IV –
BUSINESS AUTO CONDITIONS, in the
same manner as the Named Insured.

2. Primary and Non-Contributory if
Required by Contract
Only with respect to insurance provided to
an additional insured in A.1.g. - Additional
Insured If Required by Contract, the
following provisions apply:
(1) Primary Insurance When Required By
Contract
This insurance is primary if you have
agreed in a written contract or written
agreement that this insurance be
primary. If other insurance is also
primary, we will share with all that other
insurance by the method described in
Other Insurance 5.d.
(2} Primary And Non-Contributory To Other
Insurance When Required By Contract
If you have agreed in a written contract
or written agreement that this insurance
is primary and non-contributory with the
additional insured's own insurance, this
insurance is primary and we will not
seek contribution from that other
insurance.

Paragraphs (1) and (2) do not apply to other
insurance to which the additional insured
has been added as an additional insured.

When this insurance is excess, we will have
no duty to defend the insured against any
"suit" if any other insurer has a duty to
defend the insured against that "suit". If no
other insurer defends, we will undertake to
do so, but we will be entitled to the insured's
rights against all those other insurers.

When this insurance is excess over other
insurance, we will pay only our share of the
amount of the loss, if any, that exceeds the
sum of:
(1) The total amount that all such other
insurance would pay for the loss in the
absence of this insurance; and
(2) The total of all deductible and self-
insured amounts under all that other
insurance.

We will share the remaining loss, if any, by
the method described in SECTION IV-
Business Auto Conditions, B. General
Conditions, Other Insurance 5.d.

3. AUTOS RENTED BY EMPLOYEES
Any "auto" hired or rented by your "employee"
on your behalf and at your direction will be
considered an "auto" you hire.

The SECTION IV- Business Auto Conditions, B.

General Conditions, 5. OTHER INSURANCE
Condition is amended by adding the following:
e. If an "employee’s" personal insurance also
applies on an excess basis to a covered
"auto" hired or rented by your "employee" on
your behalf and at your direction, this
insurance will be primary to the
"employee’s" personal insurance.

4. AMENDED FELLOW EMPLOYEE EXCLUSION
EXCLUSION 5. - FELLOW EMPLOYEE - of
SECTION II - LIABILITY COVERAGE does not
apply if you have workers' compensation
insurance in-force covering all of your
"employees".

Coverage is excess over any other collectible
insurance.

5. HIRED AUTO PHYSICAL DAMAGE COVERAGE
If hired "autos" are covered "autos" for Liability
Coverage and if Comprehensive, Specified
Causes of Loss, or Collision coverages are
provided under this Coverage Form for any
"auto" you own, then the Physical Damage
Coverages provided are extended to "autos" you
hire or borrow, subject to the following limit.

The most we will pay for "loss" to any hired
"auto" is:
(1) $100,000;
(2) The actual cash value of the damaged or
stolen property at the time of the "loss"; or
(3) The cost of repairing or replacing the
damaged or stolen property,
whichever is smallest, minus a deductible. The
deductible will be equal to the largest deductible
applicable to any owned "auto" for that
coverage. No deductible applies to "loss"
caused by fire or lightning. Hired Auto Physical
Damage coverage is excess over any other
collectible insurance. Subject to the above limit,
deductible and excess provisions, we will
provide coverage equal to the broadest
coverage applicable to any covered "auto" you
own.

We will also cover loss of use of the hired "auto"
if it results from an "accident", you are legally
liable and the lessor incurs an actual financial
loss, subject to a maximum of $1000 per
"accident".

This extension of coverage does not apply to
any "auto" you hire or borrow from any of your
"employees", partners (if you are a partnership),
members (if you are a limited liability company),
or members of their households.

COVERAGE, in the event of a total "loss" to a
covered "auto", we will pay your additional legal
obligation for any difference between the actual
cash value of the "auto" at the time of the "loss"
and the "outstanding balance" of the loan/lease.
"Outstanding balance" means the amount you
owe on the loan/lease at the time of "loss" less
any amounts representing taxes; overdue
payments; penalties, interest or charges
resulting from overdue payments; additional
mileage charges; excess wear and tear charges;

warranties, credit life Insurance, health, accident

DETAILED SCOPE OF WORK

DESIGN BUILD SERVICES FOR THE DELTA WATER

TREATMENT PLANT GROUNDWATER RECHARGE BASIN

Project Overview
The goal of the Recharge Basins Project is to design and construct groundwater recharge basins and associated infrastructure. The construction of groundwater recharge basins will improve water supply reliability and raise groundwater levels in the Eastern San Joaquin Subbasin. The recharge basins shall also be designed and constructed to provide benefits including habitat for birds, providing water, shelter, and/or breeding places during their migration along the Pacific Flyway.

The Recharge Basins shall be designed and constructed to achieve at least the infiltration rates range from approximately 15,000 AF to 30,000 AF/year (1 -2 AF/day) assuming the basins are used 335 days/year. The design should consider operational needs and flexibility and the required maintenance of the basins.

A comprehensive geotechnical investigation was performed by Geosyntech in 2022 -2023 to determine the feasibility of groundwater recharge at the site. Electrical resistivity testing, soil borings, CPT, soil characterization/sampling, groundwater water quality sampling, and modeling were performed as part of the investigation. Groundwater wells were installed, and a utility survey was also completed as part of the project. We have reviewed this work and believe this supports the desired percolation.

The City also expects the Design -Build Team to complete California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) documentation for construction of additional treatment capacity for the Delta Water Treatment Plant (DWTP) in addition to Recharge Project construction. This is needed to pursue additional Delta diversions for groundwater recharge and to meet future potable water demand.

The Design Build Team shall provide engineering services including validation of pre-design conclusions contained in the Feasibility Study and preparation of sufficient plans, specifications,

9 of the appropriate USGS topographic maps where cultural resources are mapped, archaeological site and historic structure records, and data from previous surveys and research reports. In addition, the state of California Historical Landmarks, and the California Points of Historical Interest will be examined to ascertain the presence of designated, evaluated, and/or historic-era resources in the vicinity of the APE.

HELIX will also contact the Native American Heritage Commission (NAHC) to conduct a records search of their Sacred Lands File (SLF) for the presence of Native American sacred sites or human remains in the vicinity of the project area. Individual outreach t o Native American organizations and/or individuals will not be conducted.

Cultural Resources Survey: HELIX will conduct a survey of the project site to identify the presence of prehistoric and/or historic resources that might be impacted by project activities.

The fieldwork will consist of an intensive visual inspection of the project site ground surface by HELIX staff on foot using transects spaced 5- to 10- meters apart.

HELIX’s archaeologist will inspect all accessible portions of the project site. During the survey, the ground surface will be examined for the presence of prehistoric artifacts (e.g., flaked stone tools, tool-making debris, stone milling tools), historic artifacts (e.g., metal, glass, ceramics), sediment discoloration that might indicate the presence of midden, and depressions and other features that might indicate the former presence of structures or buildings (e.g., postholes, foundations). If resources are encountered during the survey, they will be photographed, and their position(s) will be recorded with GPS equipment. No artifacts will be collected during HELIX’s survey.

Cultural Resources Technical Report: The results of the records search, background research, NAHC coordination, and cultural resources survey will be presented in a CRA technical report. This report will include a description of the methods and results of the records search, background research, and field survey undertaken for the project. The report will conclude with recommendations for further study, evaluation, or mitigation of any cultural or historic resources that may be affected by the proposed project.

10 Deliverables: Draft and Final CRA Technical Report (electronic format) Task 3.1.4.4 – Noise Analysis and Vibration
HELIX will prepare a noise and vibration analysis technical letter report. HELIX will conduct a site visit to evaluate the existing noise environment on and around the Project site. The site visit will include up to three short -term (10- to 15-minute) noise measurements. HELIX will analyze the Project’s noise and vibration impact, addressing the issues described in the State CEQA Guidelines Appendix G. Because the Project site is located outside the City limits, Project noise will be analyzed in accordance with the significance criteria established in both the City’s and San Joaquin County’s code of ordinance and general plan, and/or significance criteria recommended by other public agencies. Based on estimates of construction equipment for the AQ/GHG Emissions analysis, HELIX will model off-road equipment noise levels received at nearby noise sensitive land uses (e.g., residences) using the Federal Highway Administration’s (FHWA’s) Roadway Construction Noise Model (RCNM) and provide noise modeling results for up to three noise sensitive land use locations around the Project site. HELIX will estimate changes in Project operational noise for the DWTP based on new stationary equipment assumptions and new or increased off -road maintenance equipment assumptions pr ovided by the Client. HELIX will estimate changes Project operational noise levels received at nearby noise sensitive land uses using appropriate calculation methodology or exterior noise computer aided modeling.

HELIX will provide the results of the noise and vibration analyses in a technical letter report.

The report will include descriptions of the existing noise environmental setting; a summary of applicable regulations and policies; a summary of the impact con clusions identified in the Stockton Delta Water Supply Project Program EIR; and the results of the analyses described above, including a determination of the level of significance of impacts in accordance with CEQA Guidelines. HELIX will revise the technical letter report once based on comments from the Client and/or City. Revisions to the modeling or report resulting from changes to the Project description or Project construction assumptions would require a contract augment.

11 Task 3.1.4.5 – CEQA Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration Based on review of the Project description and Feasibility Study Report, it is assumed a CEQA Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration (IS/MND) is the appropriate CEQA compliance document for the proposed Project. The IS/MND will follow the format in Appendix G of the State CEQA Guidelines. HELIX will develop a CEQA IS/MND that will tier from the Stockton Delta Water Supply Project Program EIR that was certified in 2005. The IS/MND will consist of Project description text and graphics, a summary of the Project’s environmental effects in the context of the certified EIR, as well as the supporting environmental checklist in Appendix G. HELIX will incorporate the findings of the technical studies into the IS/MND. All other environmental issue areas will be presented and analyzed qualitatively. The IS/MND will contain all mandatory elements including the following:
• Project Description. The Project description will describe the baseline information for the project site, as well as the major elements (expansion of capacity for the DWTP and construction of three groundwater recharge basins) of the Project, and will include a discussion of the proposed construction and operation of the Project; • Figures. Figures identifying the local and regional location of the Project site and other Project characteristics as relevant to the CEQA analysis; and
• Disclosure of potential environmental impacts resulting from implementation of the proposed Project. The IS/MND will contain a narrative for each resource issue in support of each conclusion and it will include, but may not be limited to, discussions relevant to aesthetics, agricultural and forestry resources, air quality, biological resources, cultural resources, energy, geology and soils, greenhouse gas emissions, hazards and hazardous materials, hydrology and water quality, land use, mineral resources, n oise, population and housing, public services, recreation, transportation, tribal cultural resources, utilities/service systems, wildfire, and mandatory findings of significance.

HELIX will produce an electronic version of the Administrative Draft IS/MND for City review.

Upon receipt of a single consolidated set of written comments, HELIX will revise the Administrative Draft IS/MND as necessary to address comments and will provide an electronic copy of the Public Review Draft IS/MND.

HELIX will provide the City with an electronic copy of the required Notice of Intent to Adopt a Mitigated Negative Declaration (NOI), Notice of Completion (NOC), and Summary Form for

ATTACHMENT A
351

12 review by the City. Following City approval of the Public Review Draft IS/MND and draft notices, HELIX will upload the Public Review Draft IS/MND, NOI, NOC, and Summary Form to the State Clearinghouse on behalf of the City. It is assumed that the City will circulate the NOI in accordance with Section 15072(b) of the CEQA Guidelines and file the NOI with the San Joaquin County Clerk. This scope of work does not include the production of hardcopies of the Public Review Draft IS/MND.

Following the close of the 30-day public comment period, HELIX will consult with the City and review written comments received on the Public Review Draft IS/MND. HELIX will prepare draft responses to comments received on the environmental document for City review. It is assumed that no more than ten public comment letters would be received, comments will be minor (not requiring additional analysis or studies), and responses will consist primarily of clarifying information and directing commenters to the appropriate discussion in the IS/MND.

Once the City has reviewed and approved the responses to comments, the comments and responses will be integrated by HELIX into a Final IS/MND.

HELIX’s Project Manager will plan to attend up to two (2) public hearings in-person to respond to questions on the analysis presented in the IS/MND as needed. HELIX will prepare the Notice of Determination (NOD) for filing. HELIX will file the NOD with the County Clerk and State Clearinghouse within five (5) working days following adoption of the Final IS/MND. It is assumed the City will pay associated CDFW filing fees.

STOCKTON CITY COUNCIL

AWARD A PROFESSIONAL SERVICES AGREEMENT TO GATEWAY PACIFIC CONTRACTORS, INC. TO DESIGN AND CONSTRUCT THE DELTA WATER

TREATMENT PLANT GROUNDWATER RECHARGE BASIN PROJECT

In 2012, the M unicipal Utilities Department (MUD) dedicated the Delta Water Supply Project (DWSP) to provide a supplemental surface water supply to the City of Stockton and protect the groundwater basin through conjunctive management; and

The project included a river diversion and pumping station, 12 miles of 54-inch raw water pipeline, and a 30 million gallon per day water treatment plant (DWTP), on a 130-acre parcel on Lower Sacramento Road; and

The next p hase of the DWSP is the development of additional conjunctive use capabilities through groundwater recharge and storage on a 70-acre site located at the DWTP; and

A groundwater recharge project will make use of water available under the City’s Water Right Permit 21176, contract supply from Woodbridge Irrigation District, and potentially other water sources; and

On February 2, 2024, the City advertised the Request for Proposals (RFP) for the design and construction of the Delta Water Treatment Plant Groundwater Recharge Basin Project (PUR 24-016); and

The Municipal Utilities Department staff recommends an award of a professional service agreement to Gateway Pacific Contractors, Inc. in the not-to-exceed amount of $11,033,248; and

DETAILED SCOPE OF WORK

DESIGN BUILD SERVICES FOR THE DELTA WATER

TREATMENT PLANT GROUNDWATER RECHARGE BASIN
Project Overview
The goal of the Recharge Basins Project is to design and construct groundwater recharge basins and associated infrastructure. The construction of groundwater recharge basins will improve water supply reliability and raise groundwater levels in the Eastern San Joaquin Subbasin. The recharge basins shall also be designed and constructed to provide benefits including habitat for birds, providing water, shelter, and/or breeding places during their migration along the Pacific Flyway.

The Project’s Feasibility Study and associated geotechnical investigations were completed by Geosyntech in 2022 and 2023. The Feasibility Study concluded possible infiltration rates between 15,000 AF to 30,000 AF/year (1-2 AF/day) assuming the basins are used 335 days/year. Electrical resistivity testing, soil borings, CPT, soil characterization/sampling, groundwater water quality sampling, and modeling were performed as part of the investigation. Groundwater wells were installed, and a utility survey was also completed as part of the studies. This field work will be the basis for the design of the recharge basins.

The City also expects the Design-Build Team to complete California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) documentation for construction of additional treatment capacity for the Delta Water Treatment Plant (DWTP) in addition to Recharge Project construc tion. This is needed to pursue additional Delta diversions for groundwater recharge and to meet future potable water demand.

The Design Build Team shall provide engineering services including preparation of plans, specifications, and other supporting documents to co nstruct the Recharge Basins. Services are to include, but are not limited to: final design, permitting, equipment and materials procurement, physical construction of the Recharge Basins, engineering design support during construction, construction management, record drawings, start-up, and acceptance testing.

EXHIBIT 1
371
also evaluate pertinent engineering properties of the subsurface materials from the geotechnical study.

Raney Geotechnical will evaluate the site, soil, and groundwater conditions across the site and provide geotechnical engineering conclusions and recommendations for the design and construction of the proposed improvements. Raney will also perform supplemental geotechnical exploration and laboratory testing, as needed, during the design phase of the project to assist the design team in preparing project documents.

As part of 30% Design Submittal, Raney would include one day of geotechnical drilling with a truck mounted drill rig to depths of about 20 feet below the existing ground surface. We will also perform laboratory testing to evaluate the engineering properties of the existing soils. The field and laboratory work will be evaluated to determine the suitability of the existing levees and shrinkage of the near- surface soils. The results of the field exploration, laboratory testing, and analysis will be provided in a technical memorandum with recommended geotechnical design criteria. Prior to drilling, we would obtain permits from the San Joaquin County Environmental Health Department and mark the exploration locations and notify the Underground Service Alert (USA) to obtain utility clearance. Note:

The final design of the wells will be based on the lithologic log collected during drilling. A draft design of the wells will be submitted based upon this log for approval by the City within 24-48 hours.

Corrosion protection analysis: Provide Cathodic Protection for pipelines and equipment as required.

3.1.4 Permitting Services
Our team, led by Helix Environmental Planning, shall coordinate with the appropriate regulatory agencies, resolve permitting issues, and prepare a sc hedule and action plan for obtaining all permits that are required to construct and operate the Recharge Basins.

A detailed scope of the recommended services to satisfy California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) requirements is provided below.

Task 3.1.4.1- Air Quality/Greenhouse Gas Emissions Analysis HELIX will prepare an air quality (AQ) and greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions analysis technical letter report addressing the issues described in the CEQA Guidelines Appendix G. HELIX will coordinate with Client to obtain the data relative to Project phasing, construction methods and timing, export and import of soils and materials, anticipated energy use, and other data relative to AQ and GHG emissions. HELIX

ATTACHMENT A

will calculate pollutant and GHG emissions associated with the construction and operation of the Project using the California Emissions Estimator Model (CalEEMod).

AQ and GHG impacts will be analyzed in accordance with the San Joaquin Valley Air Pollution Control District (SJVAPCD) Guidance for Assessing and Mitigating Air Quality Impacts and the SJVAPCD’s CEQA Air Quality Significance Thresholds. The air quality analysis will include qualitative discussions of the Project’s construction and operational potential toxic air pollutants and odor impacts. Because the Project is not anticipated to generate substantial new operational vehicle trips, local concentrations of carbon monoxide (CO hotspots) resulting from the addition of Project traffic to the areas road will be discussed qualitatively. The analysis will include a discussion of any Project potential conflicts with the SJVAPCD’s air quality plans, including the 2022 Plan for the 2015 8-Hour Ozone Standard Air Quality Management Plan and the 2018 Plan for the 1997, 2006, and 2012 PM2.5 Standards Western Riverside Council of Governments’ Subregional Climate Action Plan. HELIX will also analyze any potential Project inconsistencies with applicable state and regional GHG reduction plans including the California Air Resource Board’s (CARB’s) 2022 Scoping Plan for Achieving Carbon Neutrality and the San Joaquin Council of Governments’ (SJCOG’s) 2022 Regional Transportation Plan and Sustainable Communities Strategy. If new potential significant air quality or GHG impacts are identified, HELIX will recommend appropriate mitigation measures.

Revisions to the modeling or report resulting from changes to the Project description or Project construction assumptions would require a contract augment.

Deliverables: Draft and Final Air Quality and GHG technical letter report (electronic format) Task 3.1.4.2- Biological Resources Assessment
HELIX will prepare a Biological Resources Assessment for the 125-acre City of Stockton Delta Water Treatment Plant located in the City of Lodi, California.

ATTACHMENT A
EXHIBIT 1
373
Natural Diversity Database) for the Project site prior to conducting a field assessment. The biological study area to be utilized during the site assessment will consist of the Project site and a surrounding 250foot buffer, where accessible. HELIX will conduct a field survey to identify dominant plant communities on the site, identify sensitive vegetation communities (including potential aquatic resources), and evaluate the potential for the site to support special-status plant and wildlife species.

The report will also assess the potential for the site to support covered species under the San Joaquin Multi-species Conservation Plan (SJMSCP). The report will include a soils map and a map of biological communities consistent with SJMSCP classifications. Results of the assessments will be included in the Biological Resources Assessment. HELIX can prepare an augment for appropriate surveys for potentially occurring special-status species based on the findings contained in the Biological Resources Assessment.

An initial draft Biological Resources Assessment will be transmitted to Client for review and will then be finalized upon receipt of approval or incorporation of Client comments.

Deliverables: Draft and Final Biological Resources Assessment (electronic format) Task 3.1.4.3 – Aquatic Resources Delineation
HELIX wetland scientists will conduct an Aquatic Resources Delineation (ARD) of the approximately 125-acre City of Stockton Delta Water Treatment Plant Study Area. Mapping of aquatic resources will follow the mapping guidelines stipulated by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE; February 10, 2016) USACE Updated Map and Drawing Standards for the South Pacific Division Regulatory Program and will be consistent with the State Water Resources Control Board (SWRCB; April 6, 2021) Procedures for Discharges of Dredged or Fill Material to Waters of the State (Section III, Wetland Delineation). HELIX will also follow the USACE Wetlands Delineation Manual (USACE 1987), the Regional Supplement to the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Wetland Delineation Manual: Arid West Region (Version 2.0; USACE 2008), and the National Ordinary High-Water Mark (OHWM) Field Delineation Manual for Rivers and Streams (Version: Interim). As applicable, the ARD will also

ATTACHMENT A
EXHIBIT 1
374
incorporate the final rule amending the definition of Clean Water Act (CWA) "waters of the U.S.," as issued by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and USACE on August 29, 2023, in response to the May 25, 2023, U.S. Supreme Court Decision in Sackett v. EPA.

Upon completion of the desktop and field assessments, HELIX will prepare a preliminary ARD Report presenting the methods and results of the delineation. The ARD report will be based on HELIX’s quantification of waters of the U.S. and State on the Project site using the current regulations, written policies, and guidance from the regulatory agencies. The jurisdictional boundaries identified within the ARD are subject to verification by the applicable resource agencies. HELIX will also incorporate comments from the USACE and Regional Water Quality Control Board (RWQCB), as applicable, and will attend a field verification meeting with USACE, if necessary (assumes up to 6 staff hours for field verification and report revisions).

Deliverables: Draft and Final Aquatic Resources Delineation Report (electronic format) Task 3.1.4.3- Cultural Resources Assessment
HELIX will prepare a Cultural Resources Assessment (CRA) for the 125-acre City of Stockton Delta Water Treatment Plant located in the City of Lodi, California.

Records Search, Background Research, and Native American Outreach: HELIX will conduct an archaeological and historical records review and lit erature search through the Central California Information Center (CCIC) of the California Historical Resources Information System, California State University, Stanislaus. The records search area will include the Project site and a 0.25-mile radius. The purpose of the records search is to: (1) identify cultural resources previously documented within and immediately adjacent to the project site; (2) to determine if the project site has been previously surveyed, when those surveys took place, and how the surveys were conducted; and (3) to ascertain the potential for cultural resources to be found in the project site. The records search will include reviews of the appropriate USGS topographic maps where cultural resources are mapped, archaeological site and historic structure records, and data from previous surveys and research reports. In addition, the state of California Historical Landmarks, and the California Points of Historical Interest will be examined to ascertain the presence of designated, evaluated, and/o r historic-era resources in the vicinity of the APE.

ATTACHMENT A
EXHIBIT 1
375
the vicinity of the project area. Individual outreach to Native American organizations and/or individuals will not be conducted.

Cultural Resources Survey: HELIX will conduct a survey of the project site to identify the presence of prehistoric and/or historic resources that might be impacted by project activities. The fieldwork will consist of an intensive visual inspection of the project site ground surface by HELIX staff on foot using transects spaced 5- to 10- meters apart.

HELIX’s archaeologist will inspect all accessible portions of the project site. During the survey, the ground surface will be examined for the presence of prehistoric artifacts (e.g., flaked stone tools, tool- making debris, stone milling tools), historic artifacts (e.g., metal, glass, ceramics), sediment discoloration that might indicate the presence of midden, and depressions and other features that might indicate the former presence of structures or build ings (e.g., postholes, foundations). If resources are encountered during the survey, they will be photogr aphed, and their position(s) will be recorded with GPS equipment. No artifacts will be collected during HELIX’s survey.

HELIX will respond to one round of comments from the County on the CRA technical report. The comments are anticipated to be minor in nature a nd not require additional survey work or changes to the project’s APE.

Deliverables: Draft and Final CRA Technical Report (electronic format) Task 3.1.4.4- Noise Analysis and Vibration
HELIX will prepare a noise and vibration analysis technical letter report. HELIX will conduct a site visit to evaluate the existing noise environment on and around the Project site. The site visit will include up to three short-term (10- to 15minute) noise measurements. HELIX will analyze the Project’s noise and vibration impact, addressing the issues described in the State CEQA Guidelines Appendix G. Because the Project site is located outside the City limits, Project noise will be analyzed in accordance with the

ATTACHMENT A
EXHIBIT 1
376
significance criteria established in both the City’s and San Joaquin County’s code of ordinance and general plan, and/or significance criteria recommended by other public agencies. Based on estimates of construction equipment for the AQ/GHG Emissions analysis, HELIX will model off-road equipment noise levels received at nearby noise sensitive land uses (e.g., residences) using the Federal Highway Administration’s (FHWA’s) Roadway Construction Noise Model (RCNM) and provide noise modeling results for up to three noise sensitive land use locations around the Project site. HELIX will estimate changes in Project operational noise for the DWTP based on new stationary equipment assumptions and new or increased off-road maintenance equipment assumptions provided by the Client. HELIX will estimate changes Project operational noise levels received at nearby noise sensitive land uses using appropriate calculation methodology or exterior noise computer aided modeling.

HELIX will provide the results of the noise and vibration analyses in a technical letter report. The report will include descriptions of the existing noise environmental setting; a summary of applicable regulations and policies; a summary of the impact conclusions identified in the Stockton Delta Water Supply Project Program EIR; and the results of the analyses described above, including a determination of the level of significance of impacts in accordance with CEQA Guidelines. HELIX will revise the technical letter report once based on comments from the Client and/or City. Revisions to the modeling or report resulting from changes to the Project description or Project construction assumptions would require a contract augment.

Deliverables: Draft and Final Noise and Vibration technical letter report (electronic format) Task 3.1.4.5- CEQA Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration Based on review of the Project description and Feasibility Study Report, it is assumed a CEQA Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration (IS/MND) is the appropriate CEQA compliance document for the proposed Project. The IS/MND will follow the format in Appendix G of the State CEQA Guidelines.

HELIX will develop a CEQA IS/MND that will tier from the Stockton Delta Water Supply Project Program EIR that was certified in 2005. The IS/MND will consist of Project description text and graphics, a summary of the Project’s environmental effects in the context of the certified EIR, as well as the supporting environmental checklist in Appendix G. HELIX will incorporate the findings of the technical studies into the IS/MND. All other environmental issue areas will be presented and analyzed qualitatively. The IS/MND will contain all mandatory elements including the following:
x Project Description. The Project description will describe the baseline information for the project site, as well as the major elements (expansion of capacity for the DWTP and

ATTACHMENT A
EXHIBIT 1
377
construction of three groundwater recharge basins) of the Project, and will include a discussion of the proposed construction and operation of the Project; x Figures. Figures identifying the local and regional location of the Project site and other Project characteristics as relevant to the CEQA analysis; and x Disclosure of potential environmental impacts resulting from implementation of the proposed Project. The IS/MND will contain a narrative for each resource issue in support of each conclusion and it will include, but may not be li mited to, discussions relevant to aesthetics, agricultural and forestry resources, air quality, biological resources, cultural resources, energy, geology and soils, greenhouse gas emissions, hazards and hazardous materials, hydrology and water quality, land use, mineral resources, noise, population and housing, public services, recreation, transportation, tribal cultural resources, utilities/service systems, wildfire, and mandatory findings of significance.

HELIX will produce an electronic version of the Administrative Draft IS/MND for City review.

4.06, Section 4.06.010 of the Council Policy Manual.

Summary
On August 28, 2024, the Council Legislation/Environmental Committee reviewed, provided direction, and forwarded a recommendation that Council adopt changes to Chapter 4.06.010(2) of the Council Policy Manual regarding the use of electronic devices during meetings. Those changes are now presented for the City Council’s consideration.

DISCUSSION
Background
State law does not prohibit the use of electronic communication devices, such as cell phones, tablets, or laptops, during a public meeting. Yet, such use creates the potential for government transparency and open communication issues.

The Brown Act’s open meeting law requires that matters within the City's jurisdiction be discussed by a majority of the members of a legislative body in a manner that provides access to the public.

Although the Brown Act does not prohibit the sending of texts and emails during meetings, sending such communications to a majority of the body creates a risk for potential violation. Additionally, the concept of fair hearings is jeopardized when officials use electronic devices during a hearing because the decisions must be based on evidence “in the record.” Even if the use of electronic devices during the meeting is unrelated to any given hearing or other discussion item, it can give the appearance that the body and/or its individual members are receiving evidence unknown to the public. Further, Councilmembers have a general duty to avoid the appearance of impropriety or inattentiveness.

As technology became more prevalent, entities recognized the need to address the use of electronic devices during public meetings and did so in a variety of ways including outright bans, discouraging such use, and requiring disclosure during the meeting in real time.

Regardless of the approach, it was clear that in this new age of technology, public entities and the officials who serve, need to be mindful of the implications of using electronic devices during public City of Stockton Printed on 9/5/2024Page 1 of 3

meetings.

In 2013, on recommendation from the Council Legislation/Environmental Committee, the Council adopted a policy prohibiting the use of all electronic communication devices such as cell phones, ipads, and laptops, during Council meetings, except to access agenda materials (Resolution 2013-12 -17-1213).

In making its recommendation, the Committee noted that: 1) Electronic communication devices can be used to receive and send messages, so there is a concern that a council member could receive information about an item then under discussion to which the rest of the Council would not be privy; and 2) If the public observes a council member looking at his/her cell phone/other electronic device during a meeting, there is a perception that the council member is not fully engaged in the matter then under discussion.

Although the Committee recognized that messages might also be received on iPads, it concluded that the benefit of using such devices to access agenda materials (and thereby eliminating the need to print agenda materials) outweighed the potential for abuse. The use of electronic devices during closed session was not addressed and there have not been any amendments to this policy section since its inception.

In December 2023, the Legislation/Environmental Committee reviewed and discussed revisions to the entire council policy manual. Staff was directed to revise Section 4.06.010(2) regarding the use of electronic devices. Specifically, staff was asked to:
· Include language to allow limited flexibility in open session. · Prohibit the use of electronic devices in closed session.

In June 2024, the Grand Jury issued a report which included a recommendation that the City amend its Closed Session policies and procedures to prohibit the use of electronic devices during closed session.

Present Situation
At the August 28, 2024, Council Legislation/Environmental Committee meeting, proposed changes to Chapter 4.06, Section 4.06.010(2) of the Council Policy Manual were discussed by the Committee and a recommendation forwarded to Council.

Currently, Council Policy 4.06.010(2) reads as follows:
“USE OF ELECTRONIC COMMUNICATION DEVICES
“The Council's use of electronic communication devices, such as cell phones, during a City Council meeting may lead to the public's perception that a Councilmember is not paying attention to the subject matter at hand or that a Councilmember is receiving information relative to the subject matter at hand that other Councilmembers and members of the public are not receiving, either one of which is inimical to good government and transparency. Therefore, the Council's use of electronic communication devices (including cell phones), other than for the purpose of accessing City of Stockton Printed on 9/5/2024Page 2 of 3

communication devices (including cell phones), other than for the purpose of accessing agenda materials that are on a Councilmember's tablet or laptop computer, is prohibited during Council meetings.”
Attachment A includes amendments responsive to the Committee’s direction and the Grand Jury recommendation noted above.

Conclusion
Staff recommends that the City Council adopt by resolution the proposed redline changes to Chapter Policy 4.06, Section 4.06.010(2) of the Council Policy Manual regarding the use of electronic devices.

MUNICIPAL CODE REGARDING ILLEGAL DUMPING AND A PUBLIC HEARING TO ADOPT A RESOLUTION APPROVING THE AMENDMENT TO THE FISCAL YEAR 2024-25 FEE SCHEDULE

RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the City Council:

1. Adopt an Ordinance amending Chapter 8 of the Stockton Municipal Code (“SMC”) to adopt and add Chapter 8.104 regarding Illegal Dumping.

2. Adopt a Resolution approving an amendment to Fiscal Year 2024-25 Fee Schedule relating to illegal dumping fines.

3. Authorize the City Manager, or designee, to submit the approved ordinance and resolution to the San Joaquin County Civil Grand Jury, in response to Case No. 0519, Illegal Dumping:

Talking Trash.

4. Authorize the City Manager, or designee, to take all appropriate and necessary actions to carry out the purpose and intent of the ordinance and resolution.

Summary
In the interest of protecting the public health, safety, and welfare of its residents and businesses, the Legislation and Environmental Committee ("Committee") requested that staff draft a proposed ordinance regarding illegal dumping in the City to bring to City Council for approval. SMC Chapter 8 regulates Health & Safety matters. Currently, the Chapter has no provisions prohibiting illegal dumping in the City of Stockton (“City”).

On May 15, 2024, the draft ordinance was approved by the Committee and was recommended to be proposed to Council. The proposed ordinance to the SMC extends financial liability of the owner or operator of a vehicle or trailer used to facilitate incidents of illegal dumping and will assist in slowing or preventing this hazardous trend.

DISCUSSION
Background
Illegal dumping causes threats to public health and safety, with negative impacts on property values, business climate in the City, the City’s natural environment and waterways, water quality, and quality of life for the entire community. There is also a high cost to the public for removal of the illegally City of Stockton Printed on 9/5/2024Page 1 of 3
powered by Legistar™
449
File #: 24-0773, Version: 1
dumped items such as mattresses, large furniture, electronic items, large appliances, recreational vehicles, boats, and biological and hazardous wastes. Remedies and penalties for illegal dumping currently in State and local laws are inadequate to protect the public and the environment, to compensate the public and victims of such acts, and to deter illegal dumping.

The Stockton Police Department (SPD) has been working with other city departments to develop an illegal dumping ordinance. The proposed ordinance, Chapter 8.104 to the SMC regarding illegal dumping, was developed with the City Attorney’s Office and was pulled from other existing ordinances used by other government entities.

The draft ordinance was approved by the Legislative and Environmental Committee on May 15, 2024, to bring forward to Council for review and approval. A redline version of the proposed ordinance is included as Attachment A.

Present Situation
The City has recently seen a significant increase in cases of illegal dumping. Illegal dumping can consist of someone discarding bags of trash in public areas, discarding old mattresses, furniture, tires, boats or vehicles. This creates substantial blight and often leads to additional items being discarded in the same areas.

In 2022, there were 249 reported cases of illegal dumping, and 222 reported cases in 2023. Within these two years, only 4 arrests were made for illegal dumping under California Penal Code (PC 374.4 / PC 374.3). Violators typically commit illegal dumping in isolated areas and within hours of darkness to avoid being detected by law enforcement.

The proposed ordinance will help safeguard our neighborhoods and areas of business against the harms of illegal dumping. Through community reporting and support, law enforcement will be aided in holding those financially and or criminally accountable for their roles in illegal dumping. Further, the adoption of the ordinance will assist the City in recovering funds spent cleaning up areas affected by illegal dumping.

Based on research of municipalities that prohibit illegal dumping and the Committee’s feedback, staff propose adding Chapter 8.104 to the SMC prohibiting illegal dumping in the City. This proposed ordinance addresses the Committee’s feedback as follows:

Prohibiting Illegal Dumping
Under the proposed ordinance, a vehicle owner and trailer owner is liable and responsible for illegal dumping when the owner's vehicle or trailer is used for illegal dumping with the express or implied permission of the owner, irrespective of whether the owner knew or should have known of the intended use of the vehicle or trailer. Violations of the proposed ordinance shall read as follows:

1. Illegal dumping in violation of this Chapter is determined to be an infraction, in addition to being subject to any administrative or civil penalties.

2. A violation of this Chapter may be prosecuted by City authorities in the name of the people of the State of California, through civil action, and through administrative proceedings.

City of Stockton Printed on 9/5/2024Page 2 of 3

File #: 24-0773, Version: 1

3. Any person violating this Chapter shall be guilty of an infraction.

4. Violations of this Chapter are hereby declared to be a public nuisance.

5. All remedies prescribed under this Chapter are cumulative and the election of one (1) or more remedies does not bar the City from the pursuit of any other remedy to enforce this Chapter.

Violations and Penalties
Violations of the proposed ordinance is punishable by the following:

1. A fine/penalty of $1,000.00 for a first violation;

2. A fine/penalty of $2,000.00 for a second violation within one (1) year of action constituting the first violation;

3. A fine/penalty of $3,000.00 for each additional violation within one (1) year of action constituting the first violation.

The proposed ordinance provides, through cost recovery, that the City shall be reimbursed for all costs, including time, services, and materials needed to abate a violation of this Chapter and hold the dumping violator(s) accountable.

FINANCIAL SUMMARY
There are no General Fund costs associated with the adoption of the ordinance as drafted. As proposed, the City Manager may establish a special fund to pay rewards in the amount of no more than $250.00 to individuals providing information leading to identification of, and successful criminal or civil action against, any person violating this Chapter. The City Manager may create rules concerning administration of the fund and eligibility for rewards.

Upon approval, the FY 2024-25 Fee Schedule will be amended to include the following illegal dumping fines:

First Offense: $1,000
Second Offense: $2,000
Third or more Offense: $3,000

STOCKTON CITY COUNCIL

RESOLUTION TO APPROVE AMENDMENT TO THE FISCAL YEAR 2024 -25 FEE

SCHEDULE RELATED TO ILLEGAL DUMPING FINES

On May 15, 2024, the Legislation and Environmental Committee ("Committee") requested staff to draft a proposed ordinance regarding illegal dumping in the City of Stockton (“City”) and bring it forward to City Council for approval. Stockton Municipal Code Chapter 8 regulates Health & Safety matters. Currently, the Chapter has no provisions prohibiting illegal dumping in the City; and

This proposed ordinance will help safeguard our neighborhoods and areas of business against the har ms of illegal dumping. Illegal dumping creates significant blight within the City, and often leads to continuous dumping in repeated areas; and

The City seeks to implement a fine to curb the rise in illegal dumping in City limits as proposed in the new ordinance section 8.104. The amended fee schedule is intended to recover the costs of enforcing the new section and all associated work the enforcement creates; now, therefore,

BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF STOCKTON, AS FOLLOWS:

1. The City Council approves the amendment of the Fiscal Year 2024-25 Fee Schedule to create new fees concerning illegal dumping, attached as Exhibit 1, and incorporated by this reference.

2. The City Manager is authorized to take whatever actions are necessary and appropriate to carry out the intent of this Resolution.

PASSED, APPROVED, and ADOPTED September 10, 2024 .

CITY OF STOCKTON

ILLEGAL DUMPING ORDINANCE
City Council Meeting
September 10, 2024
Agenda Item 16.1
459
Background
• The PD has been working with other city departments to develop an Illegal Dumping Ordinance.
• The proposed ordinance, CHAPTER 8.104 TO THE STOCKTON MUNICIPAL CODE REGARDING ILLEGAL DUMPING, was developed with the City Attorney's Office and was pulled from other existing ordinances used by other government entities.
• The draft ordinance wa s approved by the Legislative Committee on May 15, 2024, and recommended to move to City Council for
review/approval.
460
Ordinance Summary
• It is the City’s purpose in adopting this Chapter to protect public and private property from illegal dumping and to hold any person who takes actions that substantially contribute to illegal dumping accountable. It is also the intent of this Chapter to deter illegal dumping and to mitigate the harms that the City has f ound are caused by illegal dumping. • Most of the illegal dumping is transported to the dump site, either by vehicle or vehicle pulling a trailer . This ordinance is more specific to vehicles/trailers and the registered owners of those vehicles. If a person was arrested for illegal dumping, the y would then be prosecuted as any other crime(Penal Code 374.4 / 374.3). These are very challenging cases to make an arrest on because the officers usually would need to witness the criminal act or respond during the commission of the crime.
• To assist with citing violators, this ordinance uses the assis tance of citizens reporting license plates of vehicles/trailers. Hopefully with photos or video. 461
Ordinance Summary
462
Ordinance Summary
• Funds have been allocated by the City of Stockton for a rewards program in hopes of holding violators accountable. There will be a media campaign to advertise the program and how to report through our existing Crime Stoppers Program/Partnership. • Any crime information will be sent to our Special Operation Division fo r follow‐up and if there is probable cause to issue a Stockton Municipal Code citation to the registered owner of the vehicle/trailer . The waste matter would then be disposed of by Public Works.

Liability of Owner or Operator of Vehicle or Trailer Used in Illegal Dumping • To the extent permitted by la w, a vehicle/trailer owner is liable and responsible for illegal dumping when the owner's vehicle/trailer is used for illegal dumping with the express or implied permission of the owner, irrespective of whether the owner knew or should have known of the intended use of the vehicle/trailer .
463
Ordinance Summary
• Penalties / Violation
 First ‐ $1,000
 Second ‐ $2,000
 Third ‐ $3,000
Cost Recovery
• The City shall be reimbursed for all costs, including time, services, and materials needed to abate a violation of this Chapter and hold the dumping violator(s) accountable unless the City waives reimbursement in whole or in part.

er may establish a special fund to pay rewards in the amount of no more than $250.00 to individuals providing information leading to identification of, and successful criminal or civil action against, any person violating this Chapter .
