City Council Agenda Item Report
Submitted by: Brandon Gray
Submitting Department: Police Department
Meeting Date: December 6, 2022

SUBJECT
Swearing-In Ceremony for Police Sergeant
Recommendation:

Administer the Oath of Office to Sergeant Jose Ramos.

Background:

Due to the resignation of a Police Sergeant, a supervisory level position was vacated. Leaving this position vacant would negatively impact necessary patrol deployment, and would increase overtime costs to cover staff shortages. To fill the vacancy, the Police Department utilized a current eligibility list. Based on a review of the qualifications of each eligible candidate, it was determined that Jose Ramos was the best qualified candidate for the Police Sergeant position.

Fiscal Impact:

Sufficient funds to cover the minimal expenses associated with the swearing-in ceremony, and the cost of the associated salary and benefits for the recently promoted Police Sergeant are available in the Police Department's budget for Fiscal Year 2022-2023.

Attachments:

None.

City Council Agenda Item Report
Submitted by: Sandra Dolson
Submitting Department: City Clerk
Meeting Date: December 6, 2022

SUBJECT
Conduct of Meetings via Teleconference Pursuant to Assembly Bill 361 Recommendation:

Background:

Assembly Bill 361 (AB 361) authorizes local agencies to use teleconferencing without complying with the teleconferencing requirements imposed by the Ralph M. Brown Act during a declared state of emergency. At a special meeting on October 21, 2021, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 2021-36 authorizing continued conduct of City Council and all other City legislative body meetings via teleconference, in accordance with AB 361, due to continued public health and safety concerns caused by COVID-19.

Pursuant to AB 361, it is necessary for the City Council to periodically declare that the City’s legislative bodies must continue to meet remotely to ensure the continued health and safety of the public. The City Council most recently ratified the findings of Resolution No. 2021-36 on November 1, 2022.

If the City Council determines the need to conduct meetings remotely still exists, the City Council should ratify the findings in Resolution No. 2021-36.

Fiscal Impact:

There is no fiscal impact associated with this report.

Attachments:

1. Resolution No. 2021-36
RESOLUTION NO. 2021-36

A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF VERNON

AUTHORIZING CONTINUED CONDUCT OF CITY COUNCIL AND ALL

OTHER CITY LEGISLATIVE BODY MEETINGS VIA TELECONFERENCE, IN ACCORDANCE WITH ASSEMBLY BILL 361 ( AB 361), DUE TO

CONTINUED PUBLIC HEALTH AND SAFETY CONCERNS CAUSED BY
COVID-19
SECTION 1. Recitals.

A. On March 4, 2020, Governor Newsom declared a State of Emergency to make additional resources available, formalize emergency actions already underway across multiple state agencies and departments, and help the State prepare for a broader spread of COVID-19.

B. On March 17, 2020, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 2020-06 ratifying Emergency Proclamation 2020-01, a proclamation of local emergency due to the serious and imminent threat of the Novel Coronavirus (COVID-19).

C. Also, on March 17, 2020, Governor Newsom issued Executive Order N-29-20, which suspended certain provisions of the Ralph M. Brown Act to allow local legislative bodies to conduct meetings telephonically or by other means. Additionally, the State implemented a shelter-in-place order, requiring all non-essential personnel to work from home.

D. The City Council, Commissions and Committees have utilized remote and hybrid meetings during the state of emergency, ensuring the member's and public's continued access to meetings while ensuring public safety.

E. On June 11, 2021, Governor Newsom issued Executive Order N-08-21, which extended the ability of agencies to hold remote meetings through September 30, 2021, after which agencies anticipated transitioning back to public meetings held in full compliance with the Brown Act.

F. Since issuing Executive Order N-08-21, the Delta variant emerged, causing a spike in COVID-19 cases throughout the state.

G. It is difficult to maintain social distancing requirements for the public, staff, Council Members, Committee Members and Commissioners in their respective meeting locations, therefore, the City of Vernon legislative bodies have utilized a hybrid model of meetings, with some members and the public participating remotely.

H. The Proclamation of a State of Emergency issued by Governor Newsom on March 4, 2020 continues to be in effect.

Resolution No. 2021-36

Page 2 ends

I. On September 16, 2021, Governor Newson signed AB 361, allowing local legislative bodies to continue to meet remotely after the September 30, 2021 expiration of the Governor’s executive orders.

J. Pursuant to AB 361, it is necessary for the City Council to declare every 30 days that the City’s legislative bodies must continue to meet remotely to ensure the health and safety of the public.

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF VERNON AS FOLLOWS:

SECTION 2. The City Council of the City of Vernon hereby finds and determines that the above recitals are true and correct.

SECTION 3. The City Council of the City of Vernon hereby approves the continuation of conducting the City Council and all other City Legislative Body meetings remotely due to continued public health and safety concerns caused by COVID-19.

SECTION 4. In compliance with AB 361, and to continue to teleconference without the usual teleconference requirements of the Brown Act, the City Council makes the following findings:
a. The City Council has reconsidered the circumstances of the state of emergency; and
b. The state of local emergency continues to directly impact the ability of the City Council and all other City Legislative Body meetings, as well as staff and members of the public, from meeting safely in person; and c. Health orders require all individuals in public spaces to maintain social distancing and to wear masks when inside public spaces; however, the City cannot maintain social distancing requirements for the Council Members, Commissioners, Committee Members, staff and public in meeting spaces.

SECTION 5. City Council and all other City Legislative Body meetings will continue to be conducted in a hybrid manner including remote and in person participation for the next 30 days in compliance with AB 361, to better ensure the health and safety of the public.

SECTION 6. The City Council will reconsider the above findings and the need to conduct meetings remotely within 30 days of the adoption of this resolution.

SECTION 7. If the City Council determines the need to conduct meetings remotely still exists at each 30-day interval, the City Council will make such findings by minute order.

Resolution No. 2021-36

Professional Services Agreement with Sespe Consulting, Inc.

Recommendation:

Background:

The Department of Health and Environmental Control (DHEC) serves as the Certified Unified Program Agency (CUPA) for the City of Vernon. The DHEC is authorized to provide oversight for specified contaminated sites to facilitate the completion of site clean-up projects in an expeditious manner. The oversight services provided by DHEC are in addition to the Department of Toxic Substances Control (DTSC) and Regional Water Quality Control Board (RWQCB) oversight programs. DHEC has identified the need to secure a qualified environmental consulting firm to assist with site clean-up/remediation projects that require indepth review and analysis of technical data by certified professionals with appropriate licenses or certifications.

Pursuant to Vernon Municipal Code (VMC) Section 3.32.070, the DHEC publicized the Request for Proposal (RFP) for Environmental Compliance and Remediation Technical Consulting Services, as the cost for the service over a three-year period was anticipated to exceed $50,000 and required competitive selection pursuant to VMC Section 3.32.080. The DHEC received five (5) proposals from qualified firms which were rated on their experience, overall cost, feedback from references, and responsiveness to the RFP. After thorough consideration, Sespe Consulting, Inc. (Sespe) was selected as the most qualified firm based upon the collective rating calculated by Department staff. Therefore, the DHEC recommends that Council award the contract to Sespe for environmental compliance and remediation technical consulting services for a three (3) year term. The proposed agreement has been reviewed and approved as to form by the City Attorney’s Office.

Fiscal Impact:

Sufficient funds for environmental compliance and remediation technical consulting services are available in the General Fund, Health Department, Technical Professional Services Account No. 011.1060.595200 in Fiscal Year 2022-23 and will be budgeted in subsequent Fiscal Years.

Services Agreement with Sespe Consulting, Inc.
out of or in connection with the work, operations or activities of Contractor, its agents, employees, subcontractors, or invitees, provided for herein, or arising from the acts or omissions of Contractor hereunder, or arising from Contractor’s performance of or failure to perform any term, provision, covenant or condition of this Agreement, except to the extent such claims or liabilities arise from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of City, its officers, elected officials, agents or employees.

10.0 INSURANCE. Contractor shall, at its own expense, procure and maintain policies of insurance of the types and in the amounts set forth below, for the duration of the Agreement, including any extensions thereto. The policies shall state that they afford primary coverage.
i. Automobile Liability with minimum limits of at least $1,000,000 combined single limit, including owned, hired, and non-owned liability coverage. ii. Contractor agrees to subrogate automobile liability resulting from performance under this Agreement by agreeing to defend, indemnify and hold harmless, the City, and its respective employees, agents, and City Council from and against all claims, liabilities, suits, losses, damages, injuries and expenses, including all costs and reasonable attorney’s fees (“Claims”), which are attributable to any act or omission by the City under the performance of the services.
iii. General Liability with minimum limits of at least $1,000,000 per occurrence and $2,000,000 aggregate written on an Insurance Services Office (ISO) Comprehensive General Liability "occurrence" form or its equivalent for coverage on an occurrence basis.

Premises/Operations and Personal Injury coverage is required. The City of Vernon, its directors, commissioners, officers, employees, agents, and volunteers must be endorsed on the policy as additional insureds as respects liability arising out of the Contractor's performance of this Agreement.
(1) If Contractor employs other contractors as part of the services rendered, Contractor's Protective Coverage is required. Contractor may include all subcontractors as insureds under its own policy or shall furnish separate insurance for each subcontractor, meeting the requirements set forth herein.

injuries and expenses, including all costs and reasonable attorney’s fees (“Claims”), which are attributable to any act or omission by the City under the performance of the services.
iv. Professional Errors and Omissions coverage in a sum of at least $1,000,000, where such risk is applicable. Applicable aggregates must be identified and claims history provided to determine amounts remaining under the aggregate. Contractor shall maintain such coverage for at least one (1) year after the termination of this Agreement. v. Contractor shall comply with the applicable sections of the California Labor Code concerning workers' compensation for injuries on the job. In addition, Contractor shall require each subcontractor to similarly maintain workers’ compensation insurance in accordance with the laws for California for all of the subcontractor’s employees. Compliance is accomplished in one of the following manners:
(1) Provide copy of permissive self-insurance certificate approved by the State of California; or
(2) Secure and maintain in force a policy of workers' compensation insurance with statutory limits and Employer's Liability Insurance with a minimal limit of $1,000,000 per accident. The policy shall be endorsed to waive all rights of subrogation against City, its directors, commissioners, officers, employees, and volunteers for losses arising from performance of this Agreement; or
(3) Provide a "waiver" form certifying that no employees subject to the Labor Code's Workers' Compensation provision will be used in performance of this Agreement.
vi. Each insurance policy included in this clause shall be endorsed to state that coverage shall not be cancelled except after thirty (30) days' prior written notice to City. vii. Insurance shall be placed with insurers with a Best's rating of no less than A-VIII. viii. Prior to commencement of performance, Contractor shall furnish City with a certificate of insurance for each policy. Each certificate is to be signed by a person authorized by that insurer to bind coverage on its behalf. The certificate(s) must be in a form approved by City. City may require complete, certified copies of any or all policies at any time. ix. Failure to maintain required insurance at all times shall constitute a default and material breach. In such event, Contractor shall immediately notify City and cease all performance under this Agreement until further directed by the City. In the absence of satisfactory insurance coverage, City may, at its option: (a) procure insurance with collection

Services Agreement with Sespe Consulting, Inc.

rights for premiums, attorney's fees and costs against Contractor by way of set-off or recoupment from sums due to Contractor, at City's option; (b) immediately terminate this Agreement and seek damages from the Agreement resulting from said breach; or (c) self-insure the risk, with all damages and costs incurred, by judgment, settlement or otherwise, including attorney's fees and costs, being collectible from Contractor, by way of set-off or recoupment from any sums due to Contractor.

Uniquely situated within the Los Angeles metropolitan area, the City of Vernon (City) was incorporated in 1905 as the first industrial municipality in California. With direct access to key infrastructure, the City has served as gateway for industry, ranging from manufacturing, processing, packaging and distribution. With its long‐standing history, however, some historic land uses have resulted in environmental impactsthat may require investigatory and/or remedial actions. As the City plans for its future, it is imperative that industry advance the mission of environmental stewardship to ensure sustainable growth.

Given the extensive industrial footprint, through its Health and Environmental Control Department (HECD), the City supports business with environmental permitting and regulatory compliance as a Certified Unified Planning Agency (CUPA), as well as assisting property owners and developers with clean‐up of contaminated sites. Accordingly, the City may require technical expertise and consulting services for a variety of projects, ranging from environmental assessment of existing facilities to investigation and clean‐up of historic releases to soil or groundwater. Given the diverse nature of the types of environmental matters, the firm selected to support the City must be able to provide a broad array of technical services, with background in industrial processes as well as the pertinent environmental statutes and regulations.

The City is requesting proposals from qualified firms to provide consulting services in defined service areas, as outlined in its Request for Proposal (RFP) for Environmental Compliance and Remediation Technical Consulting Services. In response, this proposal presents Sespe Consulting, Inc.’s (Sespe’s), a Trinity Consultants company, qualifications to provide the technical expertise required by the HECD, as outlined in the RFP. If selected, Sespe will employ a task‐based approach to provide a simple framework to measure performance and accomplishments during each phase of the project’s process. Each task represents a key milestone with either a deliverable product or an important milestone corresponding to a project work schedule.

2. General Scope of Work
Sespe envisions it may be called upon to provide technical review and consulting services to the HECD on a wide variety of tasks associated with oversight and cleanup of contaminated sites, including:
 Phase I and II Environmental Site Assessments (ESAs): A Phase I Environmental Site Assessment (Phase I ESA) is a scientific report following ASTM Standards that evaluates the environmental risks and liabilities of a property based on the current and historical uses of the property. It involves conducting file searches with various public agencies, examining historical aerial photos, a review of Federal, State, and Local databases of contaminated sites, etc. Although usually conducted as part of a commercial/industrial real estate transaction, it can be done at any time to develop a better understanding of potential environmental liabilities associated with a property. Sespe has conducted numerous ESAs on a number of different types of commercial and industrial properties.

A Phase II Environmental Site Assessment involves the actual sampling of soil and groundwater to determine if a contaminant is present as well as the levels and extent of the contamination. With professional geologists and engineers on staff, Sespe has experience in and is capable of conducting these assessments; however, it is expected that Sespe’s primary role would be reviewing workplans and assessmentreports prepared by others for the HECD.
 Residential Health Risk Assessments (RHRA) / Ecological Risk Assessments (ERA) / Screening Risk Assessments: Occasionally it may be prudent to allow some level of contamination to remain at a cleanup site, should remediation of remaining low‐level contamination becomes cost prohibitive or physically infeasible. Health risk assessments (HRAs) provide a tool to evaluate the level of health risk to workers or neighboring residential inhabitants resulting from contaminants left in place. HRAs can also be used to develop remediation goals based on residual risk. Sespe has extensive experience in preparing HRAs and has an on‐staff industrial hygienist available to QA/QC work products.

We envision thisservice area would be needed to support an evaluation of work exposure or community risk associated with a release of a hazardous substance into the environment. In those instances, where the nature and type of release are known and sensitive receptors are involved Sespe can utilize toxicologists from Trinity Consultants, our parent firm to perform site‐specific risk assessments, or review assessments prepared by project proponents.
 Air Quality Impact Assessments: An air quality impact assessment (AQIA) is often prepared to quantify and determine the significance of air quality and climate change impacts associated with a specific facility or proposed operation. It can also involve air

Page 19 of 89 ends

City of Vernon Response to Request for Proposals
Environmental/Technical Consulting Services September 8, 2022 02 ‐ Response to RFP_City of Vernon_09‐08‐2022 Sespe Consulting, Inc. quality modeling. For the tasks envisioned for this RFP, an AQIA could be required for large site cleanups or for emissions from remediation equipment (oxidizers, IC engines, etc.). Sespe has conducted numerous AQIAs for a broad array of commercial and industrial facilities.
 Water Quality Impact Assessments: As required for certain projects, an understanding of surface and groundwater quality is needed, particularly where there is a known or suspected release of a hazardous substance. Water Quality Impact Assessments provide an objective evaluation of site‐specific constituents and background geochemistry in relation to established limits, such as maximum contaminant levels or risk‐based screening criteria. These assessments provide the requisite background in which to determine if remedial investigation is warranted. With respect to thistask, we believe our role will be to provide technical critique and feedback on water quality studies and assessments that are prepared as part of the site investigation process.  Sampling Analysis Plans (SAPs): Key to the site assessment/characterization process is defining data quality objectives as part of the development of a sampling and analysis plan, whether applied to soil, groundwater or air. As most site assessments involve the collection and analysis of chemicals of concern identified at contaminated sites, a complete sampling and analysis plan is needed to establish the data quality objectives, rationale and methodology. In our experience, the level of detail required in a SAP is dependent, in part, on the nature of extent of the proposed investigation. That is, an initial soils investigation may only require a streamlined sampling plan, whereas a more extensive plan may be warranted where a decision point is anticipated. Thus, our approach is to guide the project toward the applicable and relevant SAP, instead of imparting a prescriptive scope.

Sespe and its parent firm, Trinity Consultants, has designed and implemented a variety of sampling and analysis plans for different environmental media types, including soil, soil gas, groundwater, surface water and air as part of the remedial investigation/feasibility study (RI/FS) phase of a project. Based on this experience and our understanding of the types of projects within the City, we envision providing technical review and comment on proposed sampling plans, as needed to support the RI/FS process. Moreover, in those instances where the project may involve consultation with other regulatory agencies, like the USEPA, regional water quality control boards or Department of Toxics Control Substances (DTSC), we will provide the requisite guidance to the responsible parties to assure the scope of these plans confirm with the pertinent agency format and content requirements.

City of Vernon Response to Request for Proposals
Environmental/Technical Consulting Services September 8, 2022 02 ‐ Response to RFP_City of Vernon_09‐08‐2022 Sespe Consulting, Inc.  Waste Analysis Plans (WAPs), including Precision, Accuracy, Representativeness, Completeness (PARCC): Similar to sampling and analysis plans, Waste Analysis Plans are designed to provide the applicable and relevant criteria that will be followed to ensure the proper collection and analysis of data related to waste characterization. Given our background with waste handling, storage and disposal projects, here we assume Sespe would assist in evaluating sampling plans designed to characterize and classify waste streams, and most notable hazardous waste, as such plans would need to conform to both federal and state hazardous waste statutes, specifically the Resource Conservation and Conservation Act (RCRA) and Title 22 of the state health and safety code. For these projects, we expect that our role would be to review and comment on plans, assubmitted to the City for approval as part of a site assessment or clean‐up action.  Quality Assurance Plans: Quality Assurance Plans (QAP) are a fundamental component of most sampling and analysis plans, as these aspects describe the process and actions employed to ensure the integrity of the data generated, which will be relied upon in the decision‐making process. Thus, well‐designed QA/QC plans are not only important for assuring the integrity of the laboratory analyses being performed, but also to ensure proper collection, management, and documentation of samples. With respect to this task, Sespe anticipates it would review QAPs submitted as a component in a SAP, or as a standalone document. Our review would be documented through technical memoranda as requested.
 CERCLA Superfund Site Support: The Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act (CERCLA), commonly known as Superfund, is a federal environmental law that provides a framework in which to address releases or threatened releases of hazardous substances that may endanger public health or the environment.

The Sespe team includes staff who have direct and applied experience working on projects sites listed under the CERCLA National Priorities List (NPL), as well as other sites overseen by State equivalent programs. With its extensive industrial background, we understand the City has provided oversight directly on contaminated sites subject to CERCLA under its CUPA authority, and also as a partner with USEPA, DTSC and the Los Angeles RWQCB when these agencies serve as lead regulatory body. Our technical expertise with these sites covers the complete CERCLA process, beginning with the preliminary endangerment/site inspection phase, through the RI/FS and remedial design stages. For this task, Sespe would assist the City in its role as lead agency or in the cases where it is consulting with other environmental agencies. More specifically, we anticipate this task would require not only technical review of various workplans, RI/FS reports, supporting studies and decisions, but also interface and dialogue with the primary overseeing agency as warranted.

City of Vernon Response to Request for Proposals
Environmental/Technical Consulting Services   September 8, 2022 02 ‐ Response to RFP_City of Vernon_09‐08‐2022 Sespe Consulting, Inc.  Data Quality Objectives (DQO)/Remedial Design Investigation (RDI): Data Quality Objectives (DQO) help guide the remedial design site investigation process for formulating a problem, identifying the decisions to be made, and specifying the quality requirementsfor the decisions. The DQOs essentially “drive” the quality requirementsfor the data and support the development of a defensible sampling and analysis plan. This structured planning process is intended to guide the collection of technically sound environmental data to support similarly sound decision‐making. It is our understanding that the review of DQOs would typically occur as part of the evaluation of a site workplan, which includes a formal sampling and analysis plan. In providing this review, Sespe would rely on USEPA guidance, as applicable as well as relevant guidance published by DTSC.  Removal Site Evaluation (RSE): Where risk‐based closure approaches are not technically practical or appropriate, conventional remedial design may be the preferred alternative, which typically entails direct mass removal or a contaminant or removal of the environmental containing the constituent.  In these cases, it may be necessary to assess the efficacy of the proposed remedial action, as compared to other alternatives.   For instance, it may be more practical to remediate soil vapor VOCs in the shallow subsurface by a conventional “dig and haul” approach ratherthan installing and operating a soil vapor extraction system (SVE).  In deciding which removal action is preferred, various factors must be considered such as remedial certainty, cost effectiveness, and potential for residual liability. For this task, our role will be to evaluate and compare alternatives presented, including those considered but not analyzed, and to provide an opinion as to the preferred RSE.
 Site Standard Operating Procedures (SOP): Certain projects may necessitate the use of subsurface exploration methods, sampling tools, installation of wells and related downhole equipment. With these types of applications, site investigation workplans may include formalized operating procedures, commonly referred to as SOPs, which detail the proper operating instructions and specifications.   In our role, we anticipate reviewing SOPsintegrated as part of project workplans. Thistask will entail examining the scope and applicability of the SOPs in the context of the workplan objectives, as well as assessing the suitability of the field application of the proposed equipment, instrumentation, and the data collection methods.
 Identification and Evaluation of Potential Constituents of Concern (PCOCs) and Constituents of Concern (COCs): While in many cases the project proponent will have already identified potential or known constituents of concern (COC), at some sites where an initial assessment has yet to be performed, the types of contaminants or other materials of interest may not be identified. Therefore, a screening assessment may be needed to establish potential and existing COCs.  Since Sespe will be guiding the City in its

Page 22 of 89 ends

City of Vernon Response to Request for Proposals
Environmental/Technical Consulting Services September 8, 2022 02 ‐ Response to RFP_City of Vernon_09‐08‐2022 Sespe Consulting, Inc. oversight of site assessment and the RI/FS process, as requested we will provide initial review of site history and uses to identify potential COCs, as well as conduct preliminary sampling as warranted to confirm the COCs. For thistask, we plan to utilize ourstaff‐level professionals to carry out the sampling, overseen by the firm’s principals.  Preliminary and Final Remediation Goals(PRGs) and Clean‐up Levels: A PRG isthe average concentration of a contaminant in an exposure area that will yield an acceptable health/environmental risk to an individual who is exposed at random within the exposure area. PRGs have been developed by a number of different regulatory agencies. Site specific PRGs can also be developed using site‐specific risk assessment methods mentioned above. For the tasks envisioned for this RFP, Sespe would evaluate the relevance and applicability of PRGs proposed by others and if necessary, prepare the pertinent assessment to develop site specific PRGs. Given our role with the RI/FS process, Sespe will advise and recommend the PRGs or other equivalent screening criteria, consistent with the current or intended future use(s) of contaminated sites.  COC Background Studies: In some situations, the natural level of background “contamination” may exceed potential PRGs for a specific site. This can occur for metals in soils. Contaminant of Concern (COC) Background Studies involve obtaining an appropriate number of samples (usually in soil) in areas believed to be “clean” or not adversely impacted by surface operations and comparing the lab results to those taken in areas of contamination.
 Site Removal Action Alternative Evaluations: Upon completion of site characterization, there may be one or more options to mitigate or fully remediate environmental impacts.

In some cases, these actions may be institutional in nature while others can require more extensive engineering approaches. Because each site is unique and other indirect factors may come into play, such as a change in land use or receptor, from time‐to‐time it may be necessary to evaluate and compare corrective actions, or in certain cases, provide an independent evaluation of a proposed mitigation or clean‐up measure. For this task, Sespe envisions providing the requisite technical expertise to identify remedial alternatives, including institutional and administrative controls as warranted, and proven technologies for evaluation of site clean‐up alternatives. Additionally, remedial actions identified and recommended by project proponents will be reviewed and assessed to gauge feasibility and efficacy. These types of reviews will be provided in the form of technical memoranda, which can be shared directly with the project proponent.  Decision Documents (DDs): As a Certified Unified Planning Agency (CUPA), the City maintains authority to oversee the planning, investigation, and remediation of contaminated sites within its jurisdictional area. Relatedly, the City is responsible for

Page 23 of 89 ends

City of Vernon Response to Request for Proposals
Environmental/Technical Consulting Services   September 8, 2022 02 ‐ Response to RFP_City of Vernon_09‐08‐2022 Sespe Consulting, Inc. determining if a subject site has been properly remediated and ultimately whether further action(s) is necessary.  This process requires that the City issue certain decision documents, including but not limited to types of abatement ordersin justified, No Further Action (NFA) letters and other types of notices/communications.  Additionally, based on our prior work for the City, Sespe expects that land use covenants placing certain restrictions or prohibitions on the types of activities permitted on a site with residual contamination will need to be prepared. For these kinds of decision documents, it is our understanding that we would be requested to prepare drafts on behalf of the City, as well as develop and review proposed conditional land use covenants from time to time.  Interface and Negotiations with Agencies: Although the HECD serves as the lead agency for most environmental projects in the City, our experience suggests that the City may desire to consult with other responsible agencies, including but not limited to the USEPA, DTSC and the Los Angeles Regional Water Quality Control Board (RWQCB), particularly in those instances where there are emergent compounds, complex risk scenarios and/or fate and transport considerations or the project proponent intendsto utilize novel or new remedial methods and technologies.  Here, Sespe seesitsrole asthe City’ssubject matter expert and technical advisor, ensuring that the City’s interests are appropriately addressed. More specifically, we believe our goal is to work collaboratively with these agencies to identify and effectuate solutions that are technologically sound and defensible, while ensuring sites are remediated to a satisfactory condition. When justified, Sespe believes that respectful critique and dialogue with agency staff is key to advancing project objectives, while continuing to strive for practical and feasible clean‐ up.
 Public Awareness and Presentations: Given that certain projects can elicit community concerns or include input from multiple stakeholders, it is imperative that technical information be communicated in a transparent and open manner that is readily understood by the public.  As Sespe, one of our principals is media trained and thus well‐ equipped to assist the City with strategic messaging, fact sheets and public engagement, as may be warranted.  Here, we assume our role will be to assist City staff in developing communications and presenting at town hall meetings, council meetings and other public forums, as requested.  Accordingly, for this task Sespe’s principals will be guided by our media‐trained staff to support the City in its messaging and interface with the public when circumstances require it.
 Certification and Property Restoration: Once a site has been remediated or suitable mitigation measures implemented, the project proponent will typically request a certificate of completeness or NFA letter.  As requested, Sespe will support the City in

3. Project Understanding / Work Plan
With Sespe’s technical expertise, we will Sespe will provide extensive environmental planning, permitting, and engineering services to meet the City’s specific needs. Besides the core service areas described above, the Sespe team can provide technical support related to stormwater compliance (SWPPPs,sampling, NPDES), CEQA determinations (IS, MND, EIR/EIS), environmental audits, toxicological studies, TRI inventory and reporting, noise and odor studies, air modeling, water resources investigations including well design and testing, as well as other environmental management and sustainability studies. Sespe also has close working relationships with various subcontractors, government agencies, and community groups, ensuring that each facet of a project can be completed on time and in a thorough and professional manner.

Our team approach to environmental consulting servicesisto provide accurate technical analysis and to balance the needs of each project with the needs of the environment. We are a team of engineers, geologists,scientists, and planners, and assuch are focused on problem‐solving, while respecting and embracing the regulatory process. Uniquely, our blend of science, engineering and the planning disciplines enables us to approach each project with a broad perspective and seek solutions that may sometimes be overlooked or unrecognized. We pride ourselves on designing and implementing projects that offer practical solutions, while ensuring a high level of environmental stewardship.

Sespe will employ a task‐based approach to provide a simple framework to measure performance and accomplishments during each phase of the project’s process. Based on our previous work with the City, we believe this task‐focused directive offers the greatest flexibility, and cost‐ effectiveness, as each work element is scoped individually to meet the project objective at hand.

The Sespe team, which includes key personnel from our parent firm Trinity Consultants, will be led by Brian Anderson, P.G., one of our Principal Consultants. Brian has served as the project manager/lead professional on City of Vernon projects previously, and therefore understands the specific needs and expectations of HECD leadership. Unlike other firms, where the project manager essentially does just that, administrates the project, our principals also provide direct subject matter expertise on projects. By doing so, our project managers are keenly engaged in discrete tasks and consequently well‐informed on project progress, as well as potential hurdles.

As lead for the City of Vernon, Brian will manage all facets of the work and serve as the primary point of contact with HECD leadership. Maintaining a single point of contact for all aspects of the work will provide the City with the most efficient process and ensure accountability for deadlines

Page 25 of 89 ends

City of Vernon Response to Request for Proposals
Environmental/Technical Consulting Services September 8, 2022 02 ‐ Response to RFP_City of Vernon_09‐08‐2022 Sespe Consulting, Inc. and quality. Brian will also be responsible for overseeing the overall work performance of the Sespe/Trinity team, tracking the individual project budgets and schedules, as well as interfacing with other responsible agencies, as may be appropriate.

Quality control and communication are important components of Sespe’s approach to project management. Throughout each task assigned, Sespe will maintain close and open communications with HECD leadership and staff to ensure every stakeholder remains informed of progress and is aware of any milestones and challenges ahead. Sespe utilizes a dual‐tier peer review process for all work product and client deliverables. This review process involves two (2) discrete levels of review. Each report prepared by Sespe isreviewed by both the project manager and second principal to ensure deliverables meet our firm’s standard of care and quality criteria.

Our dual‐tier review is also applied to engineering calculations as well as geologic analyses. In addition to standard deliverables such as technical memoranda or reports, our dual‐tier review is applied to engineering calculations and other quantitative analyses.

As part of Sespe internal controls, each project manager is responsible for completing work scopes within the authorized project budget. Accordingly, we use an electronic time‐keeping system for each project, which is updated no lessthan once per week. For our work with the City, this system will track all time and expenses according to Sespe’s assigned fee schedule, which will be used to prepare a monthly billing summary.

Unlike some other firms, where billing reports and invoicing are centralized through a standalone accounting function, at Sespe each project manager is required to review the individual project monthly billing and expense report. Additionally, once reviewed and the billings are confirmed, our project managers are tasked with preparing client invoices. In doing so, we believe this responsibility provides for a superior level of fiscal diligence and accountability. Sespe has found that our clients appreciate this level of detail to verify the time‐value quality of our project billings.

At Sespe, we are committed to a collaborative working relationship with our clients, by including them as part of the project team to ensure communication clarity and continuity. For larger scope projects or those with long‐term milestones, Sespe will maintain regular communication with projectstakeholdersthrough regularly scheduled status calls. These status calls will be used to convey progress and identify any issuesthat may arise; keeping communication open to assure we are on target with our deliverables and schedule. Additionally, the project manager will periodically schedule a one‐on‐one call with HECD to address any mattersthat require additional focus or follow‐up.

City of Vernon Response to Request for Proposals
Environmental/Technical Consulting Services September 8, 2022 02 ‐ Response to RFP_City of Vernon_09‐08‐2022 Sespe Consulting, Inc.

With the team above and our support staff, Sespe is uniquely suited to serve the entire suite of service areas described in Section 2 of this response. For further detail concerning each key member’s applied expertise, please refer to Attachment 3 of the response cover letter.

Relevant and applicable project experience demonstrating the firm’s qualifications is further described below. These summaries highlight Sespe’s breadth of technical expertise and knowledge as applied to projects covering the service areas identified in this RFP.

Former Pennzoil‐Quaker State Company Site – Vernon, CA: The Sespe team has advised the City and provided technical oversight for a risk‐based closure plan for an industrial property impacted by hydrocarbons, VOCs and the emergent compound 1,4‐dioxane. This work entailed reviewing comprehensive workplans, assessing the suitability of proposed soil screening criteria, and assisting in the drafting of a restrictive land use covenant. With the recent sale of the property and current redevelopment plans, Sespe has continued to provide input and guidance on subsequent investigations and proposed risk‐based closure approaches with the project proponent.

Pier Repair Rehabilitation – Ventura, CA: Sespe prepared a Water Quality Monitoring Plan for the City’s Ventura Pier Project in 2015‐2016. In addition to preparing the Plan, Sespe conducted baseline, daily, and weekly sampling on‐site, as well as monthly and annual water quality monitoring reports for the Los Angeles Water Quality Control Board.

Groundwater Monitoring Network, United Rock Products – Irwindale, CA: Sespe designed and implemented the installation and development of a network of groundwater monitoring wells, which were required as part of a site‐specific monitoring and reporting program for two Waste Discharge Orders adopted by the Los Angeles Regional Water Quality Control Board. Through part of this network, the client was able to fast‐track a key compliance objective with the Board and consequently move up the timeline for its business operations.

Soil Sampling, Analysis and Risk Assessment, Confidential Client – National City, CA: As part of a lease condition, Sespe developed and implemented a shallow subsurface soils sampling and analysis plan, designed to provide background data for an environmental disposition assessment.

The subject property, owned by the railroad, was under lease for the distribution of cement powder. Given the data quality objectives, this work involved analyzing the distribution of potential constituents of concern and comparing the results with applicable screening‐level thresholds. The data comparison was used to prepare a health risk assessment, which formed the basis for establishing baseline site conditions.

City of Vernon Response to Request for Proposals
Environmental/Technical Consulting Services September 8, 2022 02 ‐ Response to RFP_City of Vernon_09‐08‐2022 Sespe Consulting, Inc.

Soil vapor survey, monitoring of existing groundwater monitoring wells, and comprehensive technical review, Confidential Client – Marysville, CA: Sespe assisted a confidential client with the pre‐acquisition review and summary of more than fifteen years of existing environmental reports pertaining to a historic lumber mill. This work included supplementing the existing data with additionalsubsurface investigationsto delineate the extent of contamination. Based on our technical review and subsurface evaluation, significant VOC impacts to soil and groundwater were documented. As part of the project scope, Sespe also recommended additional soil vapor survey work in the areas of the former investigations, where elevated solvents had previously been detected back in the 1990’s. Following the soil vapor survey, an assessment of the residual environmental liabilities was prepared, so that the client could properly value the property.

Phase I/II Environmental Site Assessments, Confidential Client – Central Coast, CA: Conducted environmental due diligence (Environmental Site Assessments) involving three separate ownership properties, entailing almost 45 acres of land. Complex site history related to large lumber mill operation. Lumber mill history resulted in significant solvent contamination to both soil and groundwater. The contaminated property had undergone various rounds of remediation and is still an active Spills, Leaks, Industrial Cleanup (SLIC) property with oversight provided by the Central Coast Regional Water Quality Control Board. Ongoing monitoring is projected to occur for the foreseeable future. Since the purchase agreement stipulated the client would assume all environmental liability, additional assessment was recommended. Additional work included a risk evaluation of the ongoing/future environmental monitoring costs, budgets for additional remediation costs as well as costs to conduct supplemental Phase II (sampling) investigations.

Soil and Groundwater Assessment, Tri Valley Oil and Gas – Oxnard, CA: Sespe provided environmental services related to an offsite diluent hydrocarbon release. The diluent had migrated through the vadose zone and into groundwater through an underground tile drain system that reported to nearby agricultural fields. The initial work involved the characterization of the release in both soil and groundwater, in support of developing remedial site alternatives.

Soil and soil vapor survey assessment, Glenair – Glendale, CA: As part of the closure planning process, Sespe designed and implemented a field investigation to support the decommissioning of an industrial wastewater clarifier at an industrialsite situated within a CERCLA (Superfund)site area. The clarifier had been determined to contain a significant hydrocarbon residual mass.

Sespe completed a closure assessment to satisfy specific requirements of the local CUPA (Glendale Fire Department). The client received a closure letter and proceeded with additional work to delineate soil gas constituents, which may have been associated with a historic machine shop and/or injection molding operations. Because the subject site was located within a Superfund site area, a key objective of this project was to demonstrate that historic site activities had not contributed to regional groundwater contamination associated with solvent releases.

Environmental/Technical Consulting Services September 8, 2022 02 ‐ Response to RFP_City of Vernon_09‐08‐2022 Sespe Consulting, Inc.

Subsurface Site Assessment, Terminal Freezers – Oxnard, CA: Sespe provided technical support to address post‐closing environmental obligations associated with a property transaction involving a large industrial freezer storage building complex. This work entailed advancing soil borings in various areas of the property, including at two former fuel tank areas, and along a railroad spur line where evidence of a surface release had been confirmed. The assessment determined there was residual contamination in connection with the rail spur area contamination near the rail spur area, which resulted subsequent investigation to characterize the vertical and lateral extent of contamination, so that post‐closing conditions could be assigned.

Environmental Permit and Regulatory Compliance Audits, Confidential Client – Northern CA:

Sespe wasretained by a construction materialssupplier to design an audit program for the entire company profile, which involved multiple sites subject to various air permits, stormwater pollution prevention and spill control and countermeasures plans, hazardous materials business plans, underground storage tanks, hazardous waste management, waste discharge orders and other ancillary environmental permits. For this project, a company‐specific, multi‐media audit template was designed, which could be used by environmental personnel or outside parties.

Following creation of the audit template, Sespe was asked to perform an initial audit for each of the company facilities, which included ready mix concrete and hot mix asphalt plants, quarry operations, heavy duty equipment shops and storage yards. Through this audit program, a compliance gap was identified, specifically related to toxics release inventory (TRI) reporting under EPCRA Section 313. With this finding in advance of an agency inspection, the client was able to successfully resolve the matter and initiate actions to file the required TRI reports.

Experienced in negotiating modeling protocols with state agency modelers in Iowa, Michigan, Minnesota, North Dakota, and Wisconsin.

SUMMARY OF EXPERIENCE
Ms. Wanger is a Managing Consultant in Trinity’s
Minneapolis office. She assists clients in air and
odor projects. Her air-related project work involves
dispersion modeling analyses, permit applicability
reviews, emissions quantification, and preparing
permit applications. She is also recognized as an
odor expert and odor services lead within Trinity.

She was initially hired due to her undergraduate
research project with the Iowa DNR Air Quality
Bureau. In her research, she investigated
substitution methods for upper air meteorological
data and evaluated the impacts of substituted data
on AERMOD performance. She began her career
with Trinity as an air dispersion modeling expert,
experienced with U.S. EPA’s preferred model
AERMOD as well as SCREEN3 and the fogging
module of CALPUFF. She has experience
conducting air, odor, and fogging/icing modeling.

She has experience completing state and federal
air permit applicability reviews for various
industries. She has worked with chemical
processing and manufacturing, concrete, electric
power generation and utilities, electronics and
appliance recycling, fiberglass products, hot mix
asphalt, lime, medical device manufacturing,
refined petroleum pipelines, and storage
terminals.

Her odor project experience includes odor
sampling, monitoring, modeling, and complaint
response work. She is experienced utilizing the
Nasal Ranger field olfactometer along with the
FIDOL principles for gathering field observations.

She has worked with private industry,
government, tribal government, and attorneys,
thereby approaching odor projects with a varied
perspective. She teaches Trinity’s odor courses
and has presented at international conferences on
odor topics as well as provided expert testimony.

Odor Monitoring and Management – Designed and implemented odor monitoring programs to collect ambient air odor information in support of odor resolution projects. These projects include baseline studies, investigative analyses, and complaint response. Familiar with European field study methods described in EN16841. Developed best practice protocols for field odor assessors and experienced in administering odor sensitivity testing. Utilized the FIDOL principles and the Nasal Ranger field olfactometer for observing odor monitoring information. For a specific project, developed complaint response plan, including creation of odor complaint website and telephone hotline, to collect and respond to citizen odor complaints from surrounding communities for a two year period.

Odor Sampling and Modeling – Authored and reviewed odor sampling test protocols and building envelope study plans. Collected odor air samples from point and area source locations into Tedlar bags using a vacuum chamber and field dilution probe, as well as summa canisters. Experienced in characterizing analytical laboratory results to literature detection threshold values and integrating detection and recognition threshold odor panel results, incorporating both into air dispersion modeling analyses via AERMOD to consider odor impacts from a facility. Evaluated multiple operating scenarios and incorporated stack height iterations/refinements into modeling analyses to mitigate predicted odor impacts.

Expert Testimony & Litigation Support – Provided expert testimony focused on odor analysis, which was part of a class action lawsuit. Prepared an expert report as well as a supplemental report after deposition.

Researched international odor policies, practices, and regulations through a review of technical papers and interviews with international odor experts. Findings incorporated into technical arguments for litigation support.

Provided litigation support serving as a technical expert reviewing a third-party odor assessment for a concentrated animal feeding operation (CAFO) for swine. Prepared memorandum which critiqued odor emission rates and meteorological data utilized in odor modeling assessment.

Peer reviewer for expert reports related to odor detection and the appropriateness of an air permit for a surface lignite mine.

Prevention of Significant Deterioration Permitting – Participated as a lead consultant in three Prevention of Significant Deterioration (PSD) permitting projects and managed three PSD permitting projects in Wisconsin and Michigan in the power, lime, and chemical processing industries. In support of PSD applications, conducted complex regulatory air dispersion modeling in comparison to the Significant Impact Levels (SILs), National Ambient Air Quality Standards (NAAQS), Class II PSD Increment, and state toxics (Wisconsin’s NR445, Michigan’s Rule 225). Authored and reviewed permit application components including emissions quantification, state and federal regulatory applicability reviews, Best Available Control Technology (BACT), air dispersion modeling, additional impacts, and state application forms.

State Construction and Operating Permits – Assessed the applicability of state and federal construction and operating permits for existing sites without a permit as well as proposed sites. Completed applicability determinations for state permitting exemptions for proposed projects in various industries.

Authored a variety of state construction and operating permit applications (registration, general, individual state permits, permit amendments) for Michigan, Minnesota, and Wisconsin sources. Evaluated whether operating procedures and plans conform to new and revised permit conditions. Incorporated regulatory changes and proposed conditions in Title V renewal submittals.

Multimedia Modeling – Completed multimedia modeling analyses via AERMOD including fugitive dust optimization from coal piles and material transfer equipment. Evaluated mitigation measures using modeling. As part of a facility-driven safety directive, conducted fogging/icing modeling for three facilities in cold climates (Wisconsin; Alberta, Canada; British Columbia, Canada) via fogging module of CALPUFF.

Assessed potential fogging and icing impacts from process stacks located at nearby roadways, including an assessment of a proposed elevated roadway near a facility property.

Annual Emissions and TRI Reporting – Participated in site visits to develop source emissions inventories incorporating existing plans and permit conditions. Gathered information for the quantification of fugitive emissions from material handling. Quantified emissions inventories for power, chemical processing, lime, sandblasting, aggregates, electronics and appliance recycling, and general manufacturing industries.

Developed and optimized emissions inventory spreadsheets for state reporting in Michigan, Minnesota, and Wisconsin. Extensive experience with Wisconsin’s Air Reporting System Internet Reporting Software.
