STAFF REPORT
Meeting Date: September 22, 2026
SUBJECT: Consideration and Adoption of Resolution Authorizing Execution of Amendment to the Reimbursement Agreement between the City of Wheatland and Mercy Housing California 63, LP for Transit Services
PREPARED BY: Sean Grayson, City Manager
RECOMMENDATION:

Staff recommends that the Wheatland City Council consider adoption of a resolution authorizing execution of an amendment to the reimbursement agreement between the City of Wheatland and Mercy Housing 63, LP for transit services.

DISCUSSION:

The City of Wheatland and Yuba-Sutter Transit Authority (YSTA) entered into an agreement in July 2007 which provided that YSTA would provide Wheatland residents with one round trip between Wheatland and the City of Marysville three days per week. Those services are paid for, in part, by State Transit Assistance funds allocated to the City of Wheatland by the California Department of Transportation.

Mercy Housing California 63, LP (Mercy Housing) owns an 88 unit affordable housing apartment complex known as Sunset Valley, located at 512 Spruce Street. The City of Wheatland and Mercy Housing entered into an agreement in October 2015 which provided that Mercy Housing would reimburse the City for the cost of two additional days of transit service per week. Those funds are remitted by the City to YSTA.

YSTA has proposed an expanded level of transit service for Wheatland residents which would provide bidirectional fixed route service between the cities of Marysville, Wheatland and Lincoln/Roseville, including a demand-response service within Wheatland at least five days per week (Monday through Friday). Mercy Housing has agreed to reimburse the City of Wheatland for the additional cost of the expanded service. This change will result in improved transit service for Wheatland residents at no additional cost to the City.

FISCAL IMPACT:

There is no fiscal impact to the City associated with this item.

STAFF REPORT
Meeting Date: September 22, 2026
SUBJECT: Consideration and Adoption of Resolution Authorizing Acceptance of Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control’s ABC-OTS (Office of Traffic Safety) Grant Program for $22,000 PREPARED BY: Michael Garlock, Chief of Police
RECOMMENDATION:

Staff recommends that the Wheatland City Council consider adoption of a resolution authorizing the acceptance of an enforcement-only grant for $22,000 from the Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control for the purpose of enforcing and educating on alcohol-related statutes with the city’s alcohol establishments.

DISCUSSION:

The Wheatland Police Department has been awarded a $22,000 enforcement-only grant from the Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control ABC-OTS Grant Program from October 1, 2026, through September 30, 2027. This grant allows Wheatland Police Officers to conduct operations enforcing alcohol-related statutes with licensed alcohol establishments within the City of Wheatland.

The City of Wheatland has a population of 4,300 residents over 8 square miles, some of which is undeveloped land or farmland. The real concern involves the city’s geography and nearby venues.

Highway 65 is the main thoroughfare in the city of Wheatland, connecting residents to the Toyota Amphitheater and Hard Rock Casino, both in the unincorporated area of Yuba County, each less than 7 miles outside the city limits. Increased traffic and visitors from these venues will mean more people frequenting licensed alcohol on- or off-sale establishments within the city.

From September 6 through November 15, 2026, Bishop’s Pumpkin Farm will be open seven days a week, which can draw several thousand visitors per day, depending on the day or special event, such as movie night or fireworks. It is estimated that throughout the pumpkin season, 350,000 people, including numerous minors, will visit the pumpkin farm. The pumpkin farm also serves 6 flavors of hard cider at 5 serving venues. With this kind of activity, the police department would welcome the funding and the opportunity to work with ABC to keep alcohol violations at the pumpkin farm to a minimum, particularly by preventing the serving of minors and overserving patrons of legal drinking age. 23 Section 3, Item # 3.3
Additionally, Wheatland High School has a student body of 1,185, and the campus is located the following distances from the following off-sale establishments.  .4 mile from Raj’s Mini Mart: 100 D Street
 .8 mile from Chevron Gas Station: 500 McDevitt Drive
 .9 mile from Dollar General: 1920 Hwy 65
 .7 mile from Wheatland Liquor: 419 4th Street
 .5 mile from Big Al’s Market: 422 Main Street.

The department would work to ensure minors (under 21 years of age) are not possessing, stealing, or being sold alcohol at any of the 11 ABC-licensed establishments in the City of Wheatland, including those listed above. Enforcement and education would be conducted through IMPACT inspections and shoulder-tap programs, using minor decoy operations, including holiday enforcement. Conducting these operations will help minimize DUIs within the city, as DUIs were the top crime in the City of Wheatland in 2024, with 38, and again in 2025, with 23. Another goal is to ensure that all alcohol establishments comply with state statutes.

Accepting this grant would provide funding to enforce and educate citizens and businesses regarding alcohol violations within the City of Wheatland.

Finally, to ensure the community is aware of our facilitation and participation in enforcement operations, the Police Department is prepared to issue news releases regarding all Shoulder Tap and Minor Decoy Operations.

FISCAL IMPACT:

There is de minimus fiscal impact with officers' salaries and/or overtime for alcohol-related enforcement operations being funded by the grant.

STAFF REPORT
Meeting Date: September 22, 2026
SUBJECT: Consideration and Adoption of a Resolution Approving Modification of the Classifications in the Bargaining Unity Represented by the Wheatland Sergeants Association
PREPARED BY: Sean Grayson, City Manager
RECOMMENDATION:

Staff recommends that the Wheatland City Council consider adoption of a resolution approving modification of the classifications in the bargaining unit represented by the Wheatland Sergeants Association.

DISCUSSION:

Section 2.16.030(C) of the Wheatland Municipal Code states that the City Manager shall prepare City personnel rules and revisions and amendments to such rules. Section 2.16.050 of the Municipal Code provides that personnel rules shall be adopted by resolution of the City Council.

Section 25 of the Wheatland Personnel rules addresses employer-employee relations. Article II Subsection 8 prioritizes bargaining units comprised of the “broadest feasible grouping of positions that share an identifiable community of interest,” as well as similarity of work performed, qualifications required, the organizational structure of the City, the number of employees and classifications, and the effect on the administration and stability of employee relations.

The Wheatland Sergeants Association (WSA) has historically only had one person in the bargaining unit and currently has none. There are no current personnel filling a Police Sergeant position and there are no current WSA members. In order to best meet employer-employee relations the City has proposed that the Wheatland Police Officers Association (WPOA) become the exclusive bargaining unit representative of the Police Sergeant classification. The terms and conditions of the WSA memorandum of understanding (MOU) would remain in effect until it ends June 30, 2027 or when the WPOA negotiates a new WPOA MOU that includes the Police Sergeant classification, whichever comes first.

This proposed action to eliminate the WSA and for the WPOA to represent the Police Sergeant classification was reviewed with representatives of WPOA which were supportive of the action.

FISCAL IMPACT:

There is no fiscal impact associated with this item.

A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF WHEATLAND APPROVING

MODIFICATION OF THE CLASSIFICATIONS IN THE BARGAINING UNIT REPRESENTED BY THE

WHEATLAND SERGEANTS ASSOCIATION
WHEREAS, the Wheatland Police Officers Association (WPOA) is the exclusive bargaining representative of the classifications of Police Officer and Police Corporal; and WHEREAS, the Wheatland Sergeants Association (WSA) currently is the exclusive bargaining representative of the classification of Police Sergeant; and WHEREAS, the City wishes to modify its bargaining units consistent with Personnnel Rule Section 25, Article II, Sections 8 and 9 to have the Police Sergeant classification represented by the WPOA; and
WHEREAS, this change is consistent with Personnel Rule Section 25, Article II, Section 8 which prioritizes bargaining units comprised of the “broadest feasible grouping of positions that share an identifiable community of interest,” as well as similarity of work performed, qualifications required, the organizational structure of the City, the number of employees and classifications, and the effect on the administration and stability of employee relations; and WHEREAS, there currently are no filled Police Sergeant positions or WSA members, and the WPOA agrees to and supports being the exclusive bargaining representative for the Police Sergeant classification; and
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of Wheatland as follows:

1. The foregoing recitals are true and correct and are incorporated herein by this reference.

2. Effective the date of City Council approval of this Resolution, the WPOA rather than the WSA will become the exclusive bargaining representative of the Police Sergeant classification, and henceforth represent the classification of Police Sergeant classification in future meet and confer and other representation matters.

3. The terms and conditions set forth in the current City/WSA MOU with effective dates July 1, 2025 – June 30, 2027 shall continue to govern and apply to the classification of Police Sergeant moving forward until the City and WPOA in 2027 negotiate a new City/WPOA MOU that includes the Police Sergeant classification (or such sooner time should the City and WPOA negotiate and agree to a change in the City/WSA MOU prior to the City/WSA MOU expiring on June 30, 2027).

4. The City Clerk is authorized and directed to attest to the adoption of this Resolution and to maintain it in the official records of the City. 29 Section 3, Item # 3.4

The proposed project would require a Conditional Use Permit (CUP) to allow use of the site as an event venue for indoor and outdoor, small to mid-size gatherings such as 35 Section 3, Item # 3.5
2 weddings, receptions, ceremonies, and small concerts. Indoor gatherings would primarily take place in Durst Mansion. The proposed project would include the planting of a wildflower garden north of the existing Durst Mansion, the development of a parking area southwest of the existing Durst Mansion, and the development of a farm trail south of the existing Durst Mansion that would connect to the existing southern walnut orchards and centrally located barn. The southwestern existing rural residence would be used as a four-bedroom guest house.

The existing centrally located barn and northeastern walnut dryer would be preserved.

Raney assumes that all existing on-site structures would be improved as needed to adequately serve their intended uses, including new lighting, repainting, etc. The existing on-site dirt/gravel roads would be paved.

The proposed project would primarily be accessed through the three existing driveways off Spenceville Road.

APPROACH
Raney’s approach to environmental and planning services is to act as an extension of City of Wheatland (City) staff to review the application for completeness, assist with agency consultation, prepare staff reports, and attend meetings and public hearings.

Raney would coordinate extensively with City Departments to ensure a complete, thorough review of the application. Raney’s scope of work anticipates attendance at one in-person Planning Commission public hearing.

Based on Raney’s preliminary analysis of the proposed project and conversations with the City, Raney proposes to prepare an Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration (IS/MND) to analyze the potential environmental effects associated with the proposed project. The IS/MND would be prepared using the checklist contained in Appendix G of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines and the standard City of Wheatland format. Raney anticipates that the potential impacts would be less-thansignificant; therefore, the appropriate CEQA document would be an IS/MND.

Raney would work closely with City staff throughout the preparation of the IS/MND and determination of appropriate findings. The IS/MND would provide a discussion of the impacts related to implementation of the proposed project. 36 Section 3, Item # 3.5
3 Technical Reports to be provided by Raney
The air quality technical analysis would be conducted in-house by Raney’s Air Quality Division led by Vice President/Air Quality Specialist, Rod Stinson, and Division Manager/Air Quality Specialist, Angela DaRosa. All air quality studies would be prepared consistent with the regulations and requirements of Feather River Air Quality Management District (FRAQMD) and the City.

Subconsultants
Raney proposes to subcontract with the following consultants to prepare project-specific technical reports:
• Saxelby Acoustics (Saxelby) – Noise and Vibration Study; and • Kittleson & Associates – Transportation Impact Study.

Durst Mansion Event Center Transportation Impact Study Page: 2 of 5 Kittelson & Associates, Inc.

PART A - SCOPE OF WORK
Project Understanding
The proposed project consists of the development of an event center located on Spenceville Road in eastern Wheatland, California. The project involves limited site improvements, including the construction of an overflow parking area with ADA-compliant parking spaces and a small amphitheater.

The event center is intended to accommodate gatherings of up to 150 guests. Attendees will access the site via the western driveway to Spenceville Road, which provides direct access to the primary parking area. The main driveway entrance will be reserved for use by the bridal party and other event-related vehicles.

The site will provide approximately 20 parking spaces within the paved parking area adjacent to the residence, along with an additional 60 spaces in the overflow parking area, for a total of 80 on-site parking spaces. Should parking demand exceed the available on-site supply, a shuttle service will be provided to transport attendees from off-site parking locations.

Task 1: Project Management and Coordination
Kittelson staff will be available to participate in a kick-off meeting and two (2) project coordination calls, via videoconference. The kick-off meeting will be scheduled with the City staff and the applicant to discuss transportation scope, project schedule and to gain better project understanding.

The purpose of the project coordination calls is to discuss the methodology and results. Kittelson will share the materials in advance of each meeting and will distribute a summary of notes and action items following each meeting.

Kittelson’s project manager will prepare monthly invoices for the duration of the project. The project manager will provide regular updates to the City staff on the status of each task as well as the overall status of the project budget and schedule.

Task 1: Deliverables
 Attend up to three one-hour videoconference meetings (Kick-off and 2 project coordination calls)  Monthly invoices
Task 2: Scoping Memorandum
Kittelson will prepare a scoping memorandum to be reviewed and approved by City staff prior to initiating the technical analysis. The scoping memorandum will include a trip generation estimate for the project, and vehicle miles traveled (VMT) assessment methodology. Kittelson will identify an appropriate approach for VMT assessment in consultation with City staff.

Trip Generation: Kittelson will estimate the trip generation for the proposed project using the information provided by the project applicant and our experience with similar projects. The ITE Trip Generation Manual 12th Edition does not have a land use for the event center nor any land use that would be similar to the project. The 48 Section 3, Item # 3.5
33586
Durst Mansion Event Center Transportation Impact Study Page: 3 of 5 Kittelson & Associates, Inc.
trip generation will be estimated based on the capacity (150 guests) of the event center factoring that some of the visitors will be coming together in the same vehicle, vendors, and deliveries.

For the purpose of this scope we assume the project can screen out from a detailed VMT analysis, see Task 3 below. Kittelson will address one round of comments and will discuss the scope during the project coordination calls (Task 1). The scoping memorandum will be used to inform the preparation of the TIS for the project. One round of revision is included in this scope.

Kittelson will confirm the following information prior to beginning any technical analysis:
 Number of staff including catering, bartenders, servers, maintenance, security, valet, logistics and support staff
 What is the anticipated annual number of events?
 What are the expected peak days of the week?
 What are the peak months or seasons for events?
 Will multiple events occur simultaneously on-site?
 What are the typical event start and end times?
 How long do events generally last?
 What is the anticipated attendee arrival distribution (e.g., percentage arriving 1 hour before, 30 minutes before, etc.)?
 What is the anticipated attendee departure distribution?  Are there events that may end late at night?
 Are there events that may begin during weekday peak commute periods?  What are the anticipated busiest hours of operation?
 Will there be setup and breakdown activities occurring outside event hours? Task 2: Deliverables
 Scoping Memorandum (draft and final)
Task 3: CEQA Analysis
Subtask 3.1: VMT Screening Assessment
Pursuant to Senate Bill (SB) 743, the Governor’s Office of Land Use and Climate Innovation (LCI formerly OPR), updated the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines to identify vehicle miles traveled (VMT), rather than vehicle level of service (LOS), as the appropriate measure of transportation impacts under CEQA.

Kittelson will prepare a VMT assessment consistent with the methodology established in the Task 2 Scoping Memorandum and approved by the City.

Based on the project's size and operational characteristics, Kittelson anticipates that the project will qualify for screening as a small project and/or a local-serving land use and therefore may not require a detailed VMT analysis. Accordingly, this scope of work includes a screening-level VMT assessment only and does not include a detailed VMT analysis.

Subtask 3.2 CEQA Checklist Items
Kittelson will address the four transportation questions CEQA Guidelines Appendix G Checklist. These Transportation checklist questions, including VMT, are as follows:
49 Section 3, Item # 3.5
33586
Durst Mansion Event Center Transportation Impact Study Page: 4 of 5 Kittelson & Associates, Inc.

Would the project:
a) Conflict with a program, plan, ordinance or policy addressing the circulation system, including transit, roadway, bicycle and pedestrian facilities?
b) Whether the project conflicts, or is inconsistent, with CEQA Guidelines section 15064.3, subdivision (b). – [VMT Assessment completed in Subtask 3.1]
c) Substantially increase hazards due to a geometric design feature (e.g. sharp curves or dangerous intersections) or incompatible uses (e.g. farm equipment)? d) Result in inadequate emergency access?
Task 4: Non-CEQA Focused Transportation Analysis (Optional) If it is determined during preparation of the scoping memorandum in this Task 2 that additional transportation and circulation analysis is required, we propose to perform the following supplemental analyses. The scope may be refined based on those findings, and the fee will be adjusted accordingly.

Subtask 4.1: Study Location and Traffic Counts
Kittelson proposes to analyze up to four intersections. Traffic counts will be collected at the study intersections during the two 2-hour peak periods to be determined in consultation with the Project applicant and City staff.

Subtask 4.2: LOS, Queuing and Gap Analysis
Existing intersection lane configurations and peak-hour turning movement volumes will be used to evaluate intersection operations during the peak hours. Level of Service (LOS) and average delay will be calculated for the study intersections using Synchro traffic analysis software. This will be conducted for existing, and exiting plus project conditions only.

Kittelson will also conduct a vehicle queuing analysis at the study intersections and project driveways to assess whether the project would affect available storage lengths or result in operational deficiencies.

In addition, Kittelson will evaluate driveway access conditions to determine whether adequate gaps are available for event attendees to safely enter and exit the site without creating undue conflicts or requiring abrupt braking maneuvers by motorists traveling on Spenceville Road. A sight distance assessment will also be conducted to confirm that the project driveways provide adequate visibility for safe ingress and egress in accordance with applicable engineering standards. The sight distance analysis will be limited to reviewing the site plan for any obstructions and estimating the stopping sight distance as per the CA MUTCD, 2026.

Task 5: Focused Transportation Impact Study Documentation Kittelson will summarize the results of the CEQA VMT analysis and Non-CEQA LOS analysis in a draft TIS memorandum and submit it to the City staff for review. Kittelson will address two rounds of non-conflicting comments and submit a final TIS report to be included in the environmental analysis.

Task 5: Deliverables
 Draft TIS Memorandum
 Final TIS Memorandum
50 Section 3, Item # 3.5

Durst Mansion Event Center Transportation Impact Study Page: 5 of 5 Kittelson & Associates, Inc.

SCHEDULE
Kittelson will deliver a scoping memorandum within two (2) weeks of contracting, and a draft report within eight (8) weeks of written approval of the scoping memorandum.

BUDGET
Kittelson will perform the services described in this scope of work for a fee not to exceed $12,000. This fee excludes the optional Non-CEQA Focused Transportation Analysis task, which is estimated at $16,000. These costs do not include fees that the City may require to review the scoping agreement and studies. If the City elects to authorize the optional task, the total not-to-exceed fee for all services will be $28,000.

Monthly invoices will be issued based on time and materials basis. 51 Section 3, Item # 3.5

CITY COUNCIL MEETING STAFF REPORT
Meeting Date: September 22, 2026
SUBJECT: Consideration and Adoption of Resolution for Purchase of Environmental Mitigation Credits for Construction of the Wheatland Regional Sewer Pipeline Project PREPARED BY: Sean Grayson, City Manager
Dane Schilling, City Engineer
RECOMMENDATION:

Staff recommends that the Wheatland City Council consider adoption of a resolution approving the “Agreement for Sale of Mitigation Credits” with AKT Investments, Inc. for the Wheatland Regional Sewer Pipeline Project and authorizing staff to execute the agreement and purchase environmental mitigation credits for construction of the project.

DISCUSSION:

The Wheatland Regional Sewer Pipeline Project (“Project”) is a portion of the larger South Yuba County Wastewater Infrastructure Project (a coordinated effort between Yuba Water Agency (YWA), Olivehurst Public Utilities District (OPUD), Yuba County and the City of Wheatland). The Wheatland Regional Sewer Project consists of the first 7.72-miles of a conveyance pipeline and pump stations that are capable of transporting 1.5-million gallons of sewage daily from the Malone Avenue Pump Station in Wheatland to the southerly limits of the OPUD service area on Rancho Road in south Yuba County. OPUD will construct a pipeline from the terminus of this Project to the OPUD wastewater treatment plant.

The following is a partial list of City Council actions taken to advance the environmental work for the Project:
 On July 28, 2020, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 35-20 approving the $2.6M grant/loan agreement to fund environmental and design efforts for the Wheatland Regional Sewer Pipeline Project (Project) and authorizing the City Manager to sign the agreement.  On November 10, 2020, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 43-20 amending the FY 2020-21 Budget and authorizing the City Manager to proceed with environmental review and engineering design for the Project.
 The City conducted an environmental review and prepared an Environmental Impact Report (EIR) for the Project (SCH No. 2021110022). Based on the EIR, a Notice of Determination was made by the City Council on February 28, 2023, and was filed by the County Recorder on March 2, 2023.  On July 14, 2026, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 26-38, approving contract documents and authorizing a call for bids for construction of the Wheatland Regional Sewer Pipeline Project. 52 Section 3, Item # 3.6
City staff received bids for construction of the Project on August 25, 2026, and anticipates awarding the construction contracts on September 22, 2026. Prior to commencing construction, the City is required to purchase mitigation credits to satisfy the requirements of the environmental permits issued by the California Department Fish and Wildlife (CDFW) and United States Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) for the purpose of offsetting loss of environmental habitat associated with the project. In consultation with CDFW and USACE, the City’s environmental consultant for the Project, has identified the Antonio Mountain Ranch Mitigation Bank, owned by AKT Investments, Inc., as a suitable mitigation bank for meeting the requirements of the permits.

An “Agreement for Sale of Mitigation Credits” from AKT Investments, Inc. (Attachment ‘B’), has been provided to the City for purchase of the required mitigation credits. The City Attorney’s office has reviewed the agreement and has approved it as to form.

FISCAL IMPACT:

The total purchase price of the mitigation credits is $81,000. This cost was anticipated and included in the project budget. The purchase of environmental mitigation credits is a grant reimbursable expense.

No General Fund resources will be utilized to fund this action.

STAFF REPORT
Meeting Date: September 22, 2026
SUBJECT: Consideration of a Presentation and Update on the Status of an Agreement Between Olivehurst Public Utility District (OPUD) and the City of Wheatland Regarding the South Yuba County Regional Wastewater Project
PREPARED BY: Sean Grayson, City Manager
RECOMMENDATION:

Staff recommends that the Wheatland City Council receive the presentation and update and provide any needed direction.

DISCUSSION:

The City of Wheatland and Olivehurst Public Utility District, along with Yuba County and Yuba Water Agency have, for the past six years, been working together to develop a regional solution to wastewater treatment needs in South Yuba County. The City of Wheatland’s wastewater treatment plant is aging, has limited treatment capacity to accommodate infill growth and does not meet current environmental standards for disposal of municipal wastewater. A portion of the City’s wastewater treatment plant is located on the river side of the Bear River Levee, which leaves the plant at risk for potential flooding.

The South Yuba County Regional Wastewater Project will result in construction of a wastewater conveyance system from Wheatland to the OPUD wastewater treatment plant. The project has been separated into two segments. The first segment is Wheatland’s responsibility and will transport wastewater from Wheatland up Spenceville Road, Jasper Lane and South Beale Road to Pump Station No. 3 on Rancho Road. The second segment will be managed by OPUD and will continue the pipeline from Pump Station No. 3 to the OPUD wastewater treatment plant. Both Wheatland and OPUD have received bids for their portions of the project and are ready to award contracts once the project financing has been finalized.

OPUD and the City have been working to create a term sheet that outlines conditions and responsibilities for both agencies as it relates to the various stages and contracts involved in the project. Both agencies have tentatively approved a term sheet that is in legal review. Either the term sheet will be incorporated into amendments to the three agreements between OPUD and the City or an MOU will be developed to direct the implementation of the conditions of the term sheet. The updated agreements and/or MOU will be in a format approved by the City Attorney. OPUD has indicated they intend to call a special meeting to approve the agreements or MOU in the future. Given the timing of contract awards and the initiation of the Wheatland portion of the project, staff is requesting in another agenda item for the City Council to approve two construction contracts and a construction management contract for the Wheatland portion of the project referred to as “Contract 1”. Staff will proceed to work with the 64 Section 6, Item # 6.1
awardees toward pre-construction activities but will not issue a notice to proceed unless and until the agreements are amended or an MOU is approved by both OPUD and the City.

FISCAL IMPACT:

There is no direct fiscal impact associated with this action. The estimated construction cost of this project is more than $100 million. This regional solution has been endorsed by the State Water Resources Control Board, which has approved a $75 million grant to fund a major portion of the project. The Yuba County Board of Supervisors approved a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with Wheatland and OPUD wherein the County committed to loan up to $10 million for the construction phase of the project.

The Estom Yumeka Maidu Tribe of the Enterprise Rancheria (Enterprise) has also approved an MOU with OPUD and Wheatland for an additional $10 million loan. The landowner and developer AKT has offered to partner with the City for pre-payment of impact fees up to $5 million. A $23 million loan and $3.9 million grant from the United States Department of Agriculture is pending approval for the project.

CITY COUNCIL MEETING STAFF REPORT
Meeting Date: September 22, 2026
SUBJECT: Consideration and Adoption of a Resolutions Awarding Construction Contracts for Construction of the Wheatland Regional Sewer Pipeline Project [CWSRF Project No.

C-06-8753-110]; and Authorizing the City Manager to Execute Change Orders NotTo-Exceed the Project Budget.

PREPARED BY: Sean Grayson, City Manager
Dane Schilling, City Engineer
RECOMMENDATION:

Staff recommends that the Wheatland City Council consider adoption of resolutions rejecting a bid protest; awarding construction contracts to RCI General Engineering and Mountain Cascade, Inc.; and authorizing the City Manager to execute change orders not to exceed the project budget for the Wheatland Regional Sewer Pipeline Project.

DISCUSSION:

The Wheatland Regional Sewer Pipeline Project (“Project”) is a portion of the larger South Yuba County Wastewater Infrastructure Project (a coordinated effort between Yuba Water Agency (YWA), Olivehurst Public Utilities District (OPUD), Yuba County and the City of Wheatland). The Wheatland Regional Sewer Project consists of the first 7.72-miles of a conveyance pipeline and pump stations that are capable of transporting 1.5-million gallons of sewage daily from the Malone Avenue Pump Station in Wheatland to the southerly limits of the OPUD service area on Rancho Road in south Yuba County. OPUD will construct a pipeline from the terminus of this Project to the OPUD wastewater treatment plant.

The following is a partial list of City Council actions taken to advance the design and environmental work for the Project:
 On July 28, 2020, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 35-20 approving the $2.6M grant/loan agreement to fund environmental and design efforts for the Wheatland Regional Sewer Pipeline Project (Project) and authorizing the City Manager to sign the agreement.  On November 10, 2020, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 43-20 amending the FY 2020-21 Budget and authorizing the City Manager to proceed with environmental review and engineering design for the Project.
 April 27, 2021, the Basis of Design Report for the Project was presented to the Wheatland City Council and adopted by Resolution No.16-21.
66 Section 6, Item # 6.2
 October 11, 2022, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 34-22, which, among other actions, authorized acceptance of an additional $2 million loan from the Yuba Water Agency for work associated with environmental, engineering design, right-of-way acquisition and grant funding work for the Project.
 The City conducted an environmental review and prepared an Environmental Impact Report (EIR) for the Project (SCH No. 2021110022). Based on the EIR, a Notice of Determination was made by the City Council on February 28, 2023, and was filed by the County Recorder on March 2, 2023.  On November 25, 2025, City Council adopted Resolution No. 58-25 approving contract documents and authorizing a call for bids for construction of the Wheatland Regional Sewer Pipeline Project.
 On February 19, 2026, the bid period closed with the City receiving 13 bids for the Project. Per the bid documents, the bids were valid for 90-days after the bid opening (thru May 20, 2026).  On February 13, 2026, the Yuba Water Agency experienced a catastrophic failure of the penstock at the New Colgate Powerhouse. Shortly thereafter, Yuba Water Agency withdrew its intended future financial support for the Project. In response to that action, the City Council, on May 12, 2026, adopted Resolution No. 26-19 authorizing an extension to the 90-day bid expiration date by 35 calendar days, from May 20, 2026, to June 24, 2026, to provide additional time for staff to identify replacement funding for the Project.
 While potential additional funding sources have been identified, including loans from Yuba County and the Estom Yumeka Maidu Tribe of the Enterprise Rancheria, it has been determined that the project scope must be altered to enable the City to fully fund the Project.  Due to the sudden loss of funding, the City Council adopted a resolution on June 23, 2026 rejecting all bids for the February 19 bids and authorized staff to initiate revisions to alter the project scope and return to Council to rebid the Project.  On July 14, 2026, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 26-38, approving contract documents and authorizing a call for bids for construction of the Wheatland Regional Sewer Pipeline Project.

Accordingly, the Project was re-advertised for bids between July 17, 2026, and August 25, 2026 (39 days).

On August 25, 2026, the City received ten bids for the Project. Bidders were allowed to bid on just the pipeline portion (Schedule A), just the pump station portion (Schedule B), or to bid on both components (Schedule C). The City would award contracts to the contractor or contractors that provided the lowest possible monetary combination of bid results. The following is a summary of the bids received, with the apparent low bidders for Schedule A and Schedule B (equaling the lowest combined total bid amount) denoted by asterisks:
67 Section 6, Item # 6.2
On September 1, 2026, the City received a bid protest from Marques General Engineering (MGE), the apparent second low bidder on Schedule A, protesting the bid received from RCI General Engineering (RCI) the apparent low bidder (see Attachment 3). On September 9, 2026, RCI provided a formal response to the bid protest (Attachment 4). The protest from MGE and response from RCI were reviewed by the City Engineer and City Attorney, and on September 15, 2026, the City issued a response letter to MGE conditionally rejecting the bid protest (Attachment 5).

On September 15, 2026, the City Engineer issued a Notice of Intent to Award to RCI General Engineering of Oroville, California for work identified in Schedule A and to Mountain Cascade, Inc. of Livermore, California for work identified in Schedule B (see Attachment 6).

Staff performed a detailed review of the apparent low bids, insurance, license information, and other required documents and responses accompanying the bids, and no substantial irregularities were found.

Therefore, Staff is recommending that the City Council:

1. Reject the bid protest filed by Marques General Engineering against the bid submitted by RCI General Engineering for Schedule A - Pipelines;

2. Award a construction contract to RCI General Engineering in the amount of $16,618,050.00 for construction of the work in Schedule A;

3. Award a construction contract to Mountain Cascade, Inc. in the amount of $27,918,000.00 for Schedule B (Staff is not recommending awarding any Bid Alternatives at this time); 68 Section 6, Item # 6.2

4. Authorize the City Manager to execute contract change orders up to $1,442,968.00 for unforeseen and additional costs that may arise during the course of construction.

FISCAL IMPACT:

The total as-bid construction cost for the Project of $44,536,050.00 and contingency of $1,442,968.00 are within in the project budget and will be paid for under the various funding sources for the Project including State Water Resources Control Board grant funds, other outside loan funding, and City of Wheatland sewer impact fees. No General Fund resources will be utilized for this Project.

While the current funding package secured for the Project is sufficient to support the Phase 1A construction contracts, additional funding actions remain necessary to complete the broader Regional Wastewater Project. If additional funding is not secured and the Project is unable to proceed to completion as contemplated (both Phase 1A and Phase 1B), the City would remain responsible for funding any resulting shortfall and for satisfying its contractual obligations under the proposed construction contracts. Depending on the timing and circumstances, such obligations could include costs associated with work performed, contractor commitments, materials procurement, project delays, project administration, contract closeout, and other related expenses.

In addition, certain property acquisitions necessary for Project implementation remain outstanding.

Because these acquisitions are critical-path items, delays in securing the required property interests could affect Project scheduling, increase costs, delay construction activities, or otherwise impede completion of the Regional Wastewater Project.

Accordingly, successful completion of the Project remains dependent upon continued coordination of funding, interagency agreements, property acquisition efforts, and other implementation requirements.

Re: Response to Marques General Engineering, Inc. Bid Protest Wheatland Sewer Pipeline Project; Project C-06-8753-110 Dear Mr. Schilling:

This law firm represents RCI General Engineering (“RCI”). RCI is the lowest, responsive, responsible bidder for the Wheatland Sewer Pipeline Project; Project C-06-8753-110 (the “Project”).

This letter responds to the September 1, 2026 letter submitted by Marques General Engineering, Inc. (“MGE”) protesting the City of Wheatland’s anticipated award of the contract to RCI as the apparent low, responsive, responsible bidder (the “Protest”). We have extensively reviewed the Protest. It has no legal or factual merit and should be summarily rejected.

In its effort to persuade the City to pay over $500,000 more for the exact same scope of work, MGE’s Protest asserts objectively false facts that are foundational to its premise, manufactures requirements that don’t exist anywhere in the bid documents, and solely points to pure technicalities that have no practical impact on any aspect of RCI’s bid. It then tellingly proceeds to offer next to no analysis supporting the bald assertion that RCI’s bid “contains material irregularities that cannot be waived as a matter of law.” Remarkably, the Protest essentially concedes its extensive shortcomings. The Protest pointed to a delay by the City in providing information and claimed that the delay resulted in “inadequate time to prepare a proper protest.” The City responded by extending the protest period to September 8 and by expressly inviting MGE to supplement the Protest. Yet MGE tellingly did not accept the City’s invitation to supplement the Protest despite MGE’s claimed inability to “prepare a proper protest.”
Attachment 'D'
The Protest is not a close call and does not come remotely close to justifying the needless waste of over half a million dollars in taxpayer funds for which it advocates. Indeed, the Protest itself 79 Section 6, Item # 6.2
Dane H. Schilling
September 9, 2026

tells us everything we need to know about its merits: it is the product of MGE’s inability to “prepare a proper protest.” RCI respectfully requests that the City reject the Protest in its entirety and proceed promptly to award the contract to RCI, the lowest, responsive, responsible bidder.

I. The City’s Standard of Review.

The Protest points to five alleged irregularities in RCI’s bid in support of its assertion that the bid is materially non-responsive. As the protesting party, the burden is on MGE to establish that its claimed irregularities satisfy two different tests.

First, MGE must establish that a claimed irregularity renders the bid non-responsive. A bid is responsive if it conforms to, or is “responsive” to, the bid specifications. (Taylor Bus Service, Inc. v. San Diego Board of Education (1987) 195 Cal.App.3d 1331, 1341.) If the City concludes that the claimed irregularity does not render the bid non-responsive, the inquiry ends and the protest is summarily rejected without any further consideration.

Second, if MGE can establish that a claimed irregularity renders the bid non-responsive, it must also establish that the irregularity is “material.” An irregularity is immaterial as a matter of law if it does not affect price, quality, quantity, or give RCI a competitive advantage. (Konica Business Machines v. Regents of the University of California (1988) 206 Cal.App.3d 449, 454; Ghilotti Construction Co. v. Richmond (1996) 45 Cal.App.4th 897, 904.) California law dictates that if the irregularity is immaterial, the City has broad discretion to waive it—and generally should, so as to avoid the delay and expense to the public of rejecting the lowest bid over an immaterial technicality. (Ghilotti, supra, 45 Cal.App.4th at pp. 904–905.) In the event that the claimed variance is immaterial, the City may reject the Protest.

II. Each Ground Raised in the Protest is Meritless.

Although the Protest identifies five different claimed irregularities in RCI’s bid, it tellingly provides no argument or analysis regarding how each alleged irregularity: 1) makes the bid nonresponsive; and 2) is material and affects price, quality, quantity, or gives RCI a competitive advantage.

The only remote analysis provided relates to argument that RCI failed to “submit a valid bid bond” and that this failure resulted in a competitive advantage. (Protest at p. 4.) But there is zero analysis supporting the conclusion that RCI’s bid bond is not valid.

There is zero argument or analysis as to how any of the five claimed irregularities render RCI’s bid non-responsive, let alone how any of the five claimed irregularities are material (i.e. affect price, quality, quantity, or give RCI a competitive advantage).

For this reason alone, the City should reject the Protest. The burden was on MGE to establish both non-responsiveness and materiality. The Protest does neither.

Nevertheless, RCI addresses each claimed irregularity below. 80 Section 6, Item # 6.2
Dane H. Schilling
September 9, 2026

A. MGE is Mistaken About The Absence of A Corporate Seal.

MGE’s lead claimed irregularity is an assertion that RCI failed to emboss its bid with its corporate seal. That assertion is factually false. The bid that RCI submitted to the City included its embossed corporate seal. It appears that in its haste to come up with arguments to support its Protest, MGE did not consider that the scanned and emailed copy of RCI’s bid that it apparently received from the City did not capture the fact that the bid submitted to the City was, in fact, embossed. Therefore, the submitted bid is clearly responsive. For this reason alone, MGE’s lead argument must be summarily rejected.

However, even assuming that RCI did not emboss the bid it submitted to the City with its corporate seal, this would have been of no consequence whatsoever—i.e. it would not have been “material.” California law does not require a corporation to have or use a seal, and the absence of one does not affect the validity of an instrument the corporation executes. (Corp. Code, § 207.) RCI’s bid form was signed by Spencer Mendez, Chief Operating Officer, and attested by Jake Richter, Corporate Secretary — the two signatures the form itself requires — and Mr.

Mendez’s authority to bind RCI is independently confirmed by the Board of Directors’ and Shareholder’s written consents submitted with the bid. The absence of an impressed seal does not affect the amount or scope of RCI’s bid, does not create any doubt that RCI is bound by its bid, and confers no advantage on RCI relative to any other bidder.

B. RCI’s Bidder’s Bond Fully Complies with Section 00 40 10.

MGE next contends that the Bidder’s Bond “does not have an acknowledgement of the Principal’s or Contractor’s signature.” This mischaracterizes the bond form and manufactures a requirement that is not stated or even contemplated in the bid documents. Section 00 40 10 requires only the Principal’s signature, printed name, and business address — all of which RCI provided (Spencer Mendez; RCI General Engineering; P.O. Box 2531, Oroville, CA 95966).

The notarized acknowledgment included in RCI’s bid package authenticates the signature of Elizabeth Collodi as attorney-in-fact for Western Surety Company, because it is the surety’s delegated signing authority — not the contractor’s own signature — that requires notarial proof, consistent with the accompanying Western Surety power of attorney. RCI also submitted the California Department of Insurance Certificate of Authority confirming that Western Surety is an admitted surety in California, together with a Department of Insurance company-profile printout confirming the same, exactly as the Instructions to Bidders require. The bond, on its face, is fully executed, in the amount of ten percent of RCI’s total bid, on the form included in the Contract Documents.

Accordingly, this claimed irregularity is no irregularity at all. The bid bond is plainly valid and MGE has failed to establish that there is any responsiveness issue here.

C. RCI’s Listed Projects Satisfy Section 00 40 45, Which Does Not Request the Information MGE Claims Is Missing.

MGE next asserts that “none of the provided projects specifically indicate” that RCI meets the fused-HDPE/HDD experience threshold. But Section 00 40 45’s certification form does not ask bidders to state pipe material or linear footage for each listed project — it asks only for the 81 Section 6, Item # 6.2
Dane H. Schilling
September 9, 2026

project name, owner, construction cost, contract dates, and owner/engineer contacts, and RCI completed every field the form requests.

Several of RCI’s listed projects, including the Module 5 Phase C Project and the Palermo Dry Well Consolidation Project are pipeline installation projects of the type contemplated by the qualification standard. The form itself contemplates that the City will verify bidder experience with the listed references. Therefore, RCI’s bid included 100% of the information that the bid documents required for project experience. Therefore, this claimed irregularity is no irregularity at all. RCI’s bid is responsive.

That aside, RCI’s past projects do, in fact, satisfy the condition of pipeline installations of 2,000 feet or greater. RCI will separately provide supplemental information to the City establishing the details of the past projects and welcomes the City to contact its references.

Lastly, to the extent that this requirement was an issue (it isn’t), it bears on the question as to whether RCI is a responsible bidder, not whether RCI’s bid is responsive. Accordingly, as a matter of law, it could not even be a basis for summary rejection of RCI’s bid as non-responsive. (Great West Contractors, Inc. v. Irvine Unified School Dist. (2010) 187 Cal.App.4th 1425, 1447– 1450.)
D. RCI’s Corporate Authorization Documents Establish Mr. Mendez’s Authority to Execute the Bid and Bond.

Finally, MGE’s final two claimed irregularities point to a reference to “Bonds from InterWest” in RCI’s corporate resolutions, and to Richter Construction, Inc.’s appearance as the signing shareholder on the Shareholder’s written consent, as supposed inconsistencies. Neither undermines RCI’s bid.

The Board of Directors’ and Shareholder’s written consents broadly authorize Spencer Mendez to execute, among other things, “Bonds … for submitting with bids on Public Works projects” and “Proposal forms for submitting bids on Public Works projects.” The parenthetical reference to a particular bonding agency is, at most, descriptive template language; it does not purport to condition or narrow Mr. Mendez’s authority to bonds issued through any single agency, and MGE identifies no language in the resolutions that does so. Read as a whole, the resolutions satisfy the actual requirement of Article 10.3(C)(3) — a board resolution “showing the authority of the officer signing the Bid to execute Bid on behalf of the corporation” — which they plainly do.

Richter Construction, Inc.’s appearance as a shareholder is likewise unremarkable; it reflects RCI’s ownership structure and has no bearing on whether the Board of Directors validly authorized Mr. Mendez to sign. MGE has identified no evidence that Mr. Mendez lacked actual authority to execute RCI’s bid or bond.

Finally, we have reviewed a September 4 letter from John Hopkins, Vice-President of InterWest Insurance Company, which will be separately forwarded to the City. The Hopkins letter explains that InterWest is a licensed bond broker for various sureties, including Western Surety Company.

The Hopkins letter further explains that InterWest has the authority to legally bind Western 82 Section 6, Item # 6.2
Dane H. Schilling
September 9, 2026

Surety Company and that Mr. Mendez has express authority to sign bonds brokered by InterWest. Notably, Mr. Hopkins points out that this type of relationship is standard for all sureties that provide public works bonds. There is zero question as to the validity of the bid bond.

III. Conclusion.

For the foregoing reasons, RCI respectfully requests that the City summarily reject MGE’s protest and proceed promptly to award the Project contract to RCI as the lowest, responsive, responsible bidder.

RCI reserves all rights to supplement this response, to respond to any further submission by MGE, and to be heard before the City Council or other decisionmaker prior to any final determination adverse to RCI.

Please do not hesitate to contact me with any questions.

Sincerely,

Re: Response to Letter of Bid Protest for the Wheatland Regional Sewer Pipeline Project Dear Mr. Anderson:

The City of Wheatland is in receipt of a letter from Marques General Engineering (MGE) dated September 1, 2026, which protests the bid received by RCI General Engineering (RCI), the apparent low bidder (“Protest Letter”) for the above mentioned project.

City Staff, including legal counsel, have reviewed the Protest Letter which asserts that RCI failed to provide certain requisite information with their bid. The City provides the following responses to the five alleged irregularities contained in the Protest Letter:

1. Corporate Seal – The Protest Letter alleges that RCI’s bid lacked a corporate seal. While the corporate seal did not appear on the electronically scanned (PDF) file that was provided to MGE by the City, the City Clerk physically examined the original document in question and has verified that an embossed corporate seal is present on the original document.

2. Acknowledgment of Bidders Bond – The Protest Letter contends that the Bidder’s Bond “does not have an acknowledgement of the Principal’s or Contractor’s signature”. A notarized acknowledgement of the signature of the bidder on the bond is not a requirement stated in the bid documents. Section 00 40 10 only requires the Principal’s signature, printed name, and business address which were provided. In addition, the signatory’s signature is duly and properly acknowledged by notary as required elsewhere in the bid package submitted.

3. Fused HDPE Pipeline Experience – The Protest Letter alleges that “none of the provided projects specifically indicate” that RCI meets the fused-HDPE/HDD experience threshold. As part of the City’s review of bids submitted, the RCI’s experience claimed on various required in Section 00 40 45 was reviewed and validated by City Staff.

4. Written Consent of Bonding Company – The Protest Letter alleges “the Written Consent document outlines signatory authority for "Bonds from Interwest", however, the bid bond submitted and signed is from Western Surety”. The City has reviewed the documents provided Attachment 'E'
84 Section 6, Item # 6.2
and determined that Interwest is an authorized bonding agent for Western Surety and that the bond presented is valid.

5. Written Consent of RCI General Engineering – The Protest Letter alleges “the Written Consent document is for RCI General Engineering, however the signatory portion indicates Richter Construction, Incorporated”. The City has reviewed the documents provided and determined that Mr. Mendez is in fact duly authorized by RCI’s Board of Directors to execute bid documents on behalf of RCI.

In conclusion, City Staff has determined that assertions made in the protest letter are not valid and do not constitute rejecting the bid submitted by the apparent low bidder. Accordingly, City Staff has recommended to the City Council that they reject the protest made by MGE and award the Schedule APipelines construction contract to RCI General Engineering at their September 22, 2026, City Council meeting.

CITY COUNCIL MEETING STAFF REPORT
Meeting Date: September 22, 2026
SUBJECT: Consideration and Adoption of a Resolution Authorizing the City Manager to Execute a Professional Service Agreement for Construction Management and Inspection, and Issue Task Orders for Engineering and Environmental Support Services During Construction of the Wheatland Regional Sewer Pipeline Project [CWSRF Project No.

C-06-8753-110]
PREPARED BY: Sean Grayson, City Manager
Dane Schilling, City Engineer
RECOMMENDATION:

Staff recommends that the Wheatland City Council consider adoption of a resolution authorizing the City Manager to execute professional service agreements for construction management and inspection (CM&I) services, and issue task orders for engineering services during construction and environmental support services during construction of the Wheatland Regional Sewer Pipeline Project.

DISCUSSION:

The Wheatland Regional Sewer Pipeline Project (“Project”) is a portion of the larger South Yuba County Wastewater Infrastructure Project (a coordinated effort between Yuba Water Agency (YWA), Olivehurst Public Utilities District (OPUD), Yuba County and the City of Wheatland). The Wheatland Regional Sewer Project consists of the first 7.72-miles of a conveyance pipeline and pump stations that are capable of transporting 1.5-million gallons of sewage daily from the Malone Avenue Pump Station in Wheatland to the southerly limits of the OPUD service area on Rancho Road in south Yuba County. OPUD will construct a pipeline from the terminus of this Project to the OPUD wastewater treatment plant.

The following is a partial list of City Council actions taken to advance the design and environmental work for the Project:
 On July 28, 2020, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 35-20 approving the $2.6M grant/loan agreement to fund environmental and design efforts for the Wheatland Regional Sewer Pipeline Project (Project) and authorizing the City Manager to sign the agreement.  On November 10, 2020, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 43-20 amending the FY 2020-21 Budget and authorizing the City Manager to proceed with environmental review and engineering design for the Project.
87 Section 6, Item # 6.3
 October 11, 2022, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 34-22, which, among other actions, authorized acceptance of an additional $2 million loan from the Yuba Water Agency for work associated with environmental, engineering design, right-of-way acquisition and grant funding work for the Project.
 The City conducted an environmental review and prepared an Environmental Impact Report (EIR) for the Project (SCH No. 2021110022). Based on the EIR, a Notice of Determination was made by the City Council on February 28, 2023, and was filed by the County Recorder on March 2, 2023.  On July 17, 2026, the City advertised the Project for bids and on August 25, 2026, the City received ten bids for the Project.
 The award of construction contracts for the Project is anticipated at the September 22, 2026, City Council meeting.

On April 20, 2026, the City and OPUD jointly released a Request for Proposals (RFP) for construction Management and Inspection Services (CM&I) for the South Yuba County Wastewater Infrastructure Project (Attachment ‘B’). Six written proposals were received by May 20, 2026, submission deadline.

Proposals were evaluated by a review panel, consisting of the OPUD Public Works Manager Swarnjit Boyal, City Engineer Dane Schilling, a Principal Construction Manager from Coastland|DCCM and an Associate Engineer from Coastland|DCCM. Proposals were evaluated on the following criteria and weighted scoring:
 Project Understanding & unique ideas to enhance the project 20%  Experience of firm(s) and specific staff including QA/QC 20%  Ability to control costs and contractor schedule 30%
 References from former clients 20%
 Completeness and compliance with RFP format 10%
After individual evaluations were completed, the review panel met to confer and decided to invite five of the six firms to in-person interviews with the panel. Interviews were conducted on June 4, 2026. At the conclusion of the interviews, the selection panel deliberated and unanimously chose ICM Group (ICM) as its top-ranked proposer. ICM’s cost proposal was reviewed by City and OPUD staff and minor adjustments were made. ICM’s proposal and cost proposal are included in Attachment C.

Also, the City’s design engineering team, headed by Coastland|DCCM, is needed to provide technical support to ICM’s efforts in overseeing the proper construction of the City’s Regional Sewer Pipeline Project. When needed and requested, Coastland|DCCM will provide responses to design related questions from the contractor, review engineering submittals and perform as-needed construction observations during the course of the 30-month construction process.

Similarly, the City’s planning and environmental team, headed by Raney Planning and Management, will provide on-going environmental review and permitting services during construction of the project as required by the environmental permits issued by California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW) and the US Army Corps of Engineers (USACOE).
88 Section 6, Item # 6.3
FISCAL IMPACT:

The total proposed cost to the City for the above-described services are:

Construction Management and Inspection - ICM Group (City only) $2,943,829 Engineering Services During Construction-Coastland|DCCM $1,336,982 Environmental Services During Construction-Raney Planning & Mgmt $ 200,000 TOTAL $4,480,685
Although the CM&I services contract will be established with the City, the services and costs will be shared with OPUD in accordance with the individual fee proposals submitted by ICM Group for each agency’s project. These City’s costs for these services are within the project budget and will be paid for under the various funding sources for the Project including State Water Resources Control Board grant funds, potential USDA loan and grant funding, other outside loan funding, and City of Wheatland sewer impact fees. No General Fund resources will be utilized for this Project.

A Memorandum of Understanding between the City of Wheatland and OPUD (MOU) is being finalized.

Accordingly, a Notice to Proceed will not be issued by the City to either contractor until the MOU is executed by both parties.

RE: Proposal to Provide Construction Management and Inspection Services for the Wheatland-OPUD Regional Sewer Pipeline Project
(CWSRF Project No. C-06-8753-110)
Dear Gentlemen:

Inferrera Construction Management Group, Inc. (ICM) is excited to present you with our revised proposal for construction management (CM) and inspection services for the WheatlandOPUD Regional Sewer Pipeline Project! Constructing wastewater pump stations and force mains is exciting! New facilities, such as yours, requires attention to details and a team focused approach for success. Starting with reputable contractors, like Gateway Pacific, Mozingo and RCI General Engineering, will lessen the number of issues that arise. We know first-hand, having worked with Gateway Pacific and Mozingo on large complicated projects.

At ICM, all we do is construction management and inspection of local wastewater and water public works projects. We have one of the largest, if not the largest, team of professionals located here in the Sacramento area dedicated solely to the CM and inspection of local wastewater and water projects. Wastewater pump stations and pipelines are our specialty.

We recently completed or are about to complete the CM and inspection of the following projects:
• The $47 million Sly Park Intertie Project, with a pump station and 7 miles of pipeline. (El Dorado Irrigation District, Pollock Pines, CA)
• The $100 million Arden Area Mainline and Meter Replacement Project including 32 miles of pipeline. (Sacramento County Water Agency)
• The $240 million regional water treatment plant, pipeline, and pump station projects for Stanislaus Regional Water Authority in Hughson, CA (near Turlock).

Included under separate cover is our Cost Proposal. We look forward to helping you on this important project. If you have questions or comments, please call me at 530-683-4038.

Sincerely,
Inferrera Construction Management Group, Inc.

Project Understanding and Approach
Project Understanding
When completed, the Wheatland-OPUD Regional
Sewer Pipeline Project will be an important part of
the expansion of critical infrastructure in the area.

It will allow Wheatland to decommission their
wastewater treatment plant and send the area
wastewater flows to the OPUD wastewater
treatment plant. The City of Wheatland (City) and
Olivehurst Public Utilities District (OPUD) have
designed, bid, and issued Notices of Intent to
Award for three contracts to accomplish
conveyance of wastewater from the City of
Wheatland’s existing collection system to OPUD’s
wastewater treatment plant.

We understand the uniqueness of your Project – the
cooperation of two agencies, with multiple funding
sources, having three contractors build interconnected pipelines and pump stations and the most critical aspect of the project is that the pump stations need to communicate with Pump Station 2 where they will all be controlled.

We are experienced in this type of project and qualified to provide the construction management and inspection services for Wheatland and OPUD. ICM recently completed the construction management and inspection of the $240 million Stanislaus Regional Water Authority’s project that consisted of two cities, the City of Ceres and Turlock, cooperating in constructing a new water treatment plant, four pump stations, three reservoirs, and 10 miles of 42 inch pipeline, with four contractors. A critical component of the SRWA project, like your project, was the communication and control of the treatment plant, reservoirs, and pump stations.

However, the SRWA project is not our only large project similar to yours. We are currently completing the $47 million Sly Park Intertie Project that includes two pump stations, two treatment plants, three reservoirs, and 7 miles of 24 and 30 inch pipeline. The Sly Park Intertie Project also has a critical component of the need to communicate with and control of the pump stations. Plus, ICM has worked on over 100 pipeline and over 40 pump station projects, all having similarities with your Project.

Another important aspect of your Project are the horizontal direction drilling (HDD) and jack and bore components. ICM has inspected numerous HDD and jack and bore tunnelling operations; most recently at the SRWA project (described above), two trunk sewer projects for the City of Manteca, and the Motherlode sewer force main project for the El Dorado Irrigation District.

We understand the construction contracts are awarded, and in the process of being approved, to the following apparent low bidders:

To maintain meticulous and organized project documents for three projects, ICM will institute a separate document control system for each project. We prefer to use Procore for each project, but are flexible to use the document management system most effective for each project and each project team. For example, we are able to use one document management system, like ProCore, for Wheatland’s projects, and a different document management system, like VPM, for OPUD’s project. The key is to establish those
management systems that allow the project
teams to attain high performance.

All high performance construction teams have
similarities: great and open communication,
prompt resolution of issues, quick turn around
times, and finishing on time or early. ICM
excels at building high performance
construction teams and driving for project
success. The following are goals for the
Regional Sewer Pipeline Project.

Goals for the Regional Sewer
Pipeline Project
ICM will put your interests first and help you
achieve your goals for the Regional Sewer
Pipeline Project. We assume you will have the
following goals that we find important on this type of project:
➢ Complete the Project on time or early.
➢ Complete the Project on budget.
➢ Achieve quality construction as required by the Contract documents and industry standards.
➢ Avoid claim escalation such as litigation or arbitration. ➢ Comply with permits and environmental regulations.
➢ Maintain good relationship with other stake holders including CalTrans, the County Department of Transportation.
➢ Maintain good relationships with private landowners and the public. ➢ And other goals as identified by the Agencies.

ICM's Approach to Achieve the Project Goals
On Time, On Budget, High Quality, and No Claims - ICM believes that project goals are best achieved by taking a Team Approach. We will establish a good working relationship with the contractors at the start of their projects. ICM has been in the local construction business long enough that we have a well-known reputation as a fair, firm and talented construction management company that works hard to resolve issues quickly to keep the project progressing. By anticipating project issues and resolving them promptly, we keep the project on track, earning the trust and good will of the contractor, to the benefit of all parties.

As our team faces challenges, the best way to achieve the goals of the project (on time, on budget, with high quality and no claims) is to focus on quick responses to challenges so the contractor can complete the job on time or early. On-time project delivery provides the highest probability of a project that will also be on budget, have no claims, and has high quality construction.

Comply with Permits and Environmental Regulations - The key to maintaining compliance with permitting and environmental regulations is to enforce the permit requirements and maintain regular status updates with the contractors on permit compliance. As we have learned on other projects, even experienced contractors can employ staff who are inexperienced in complying with permits. So, we will be vigilant that permit compliance is maintained.

Maintain Good Relationship with Stakeholders,
Private Landowners, and the Public - We will keep
regular contact with the permitting agencies to keep
them informed of the Project status and allow them to
provide input if they have concerns and address those
concerns quickly. We will assist the Agencies with
addressing the concerns of landowners and the
public. For all stakeholders, prompt response and
quick resolution of issues goes a long way to build
trust and goodwill.

Other Agency Goals - ICM looks forward to learning
about other important goals of both Agencies. Once
identified, we will work with the team to plan an
approach and then achieve those goals.

Insights for Successful Completion of
Multi-Contract Pump Station and Pipeline
Projects
At ICM, we understand that the Project plans/specifications may be stamped and signed at bid time, but they are not 100% perfect. The project is fine-tuned and perfected as it is built in a collaborative approach with the contractor, engineer, and owner. The systems that have been developed to perfect the plans/specifications are the submittal process, RFIs, value engineering, and change orders. In addition, we get valuable information on how to resolve challenges from the contractor, who typically brings useful experience and ideas to the team that we can use to make the project better. At ICM, we leverage everyone's ideas to construct the better project to achieve the Agency’s goals.

To make this all happen successfully, we work collaboratively as a team: both Agencies, the design firms, the contractors, and ICM. Through subsidiarity, we resolve challenges at the lowest level possible while keeping all team members informed, thus progressing the work expeditiously and preventing claims. And based on our experience, we know where the challenges will be and we are proactive in resolving them before they negatively impact the Project. The list of Project Challenges below are some of the items that ICM will be proactive to help mitigate issues.

Project Challenges - Based on our extensive experience in the construction of pump stations and pipelines, we have identified the following list of project challenges:
➢ SCADA and PLC Controls - It just seems whether it is Tesco, Telstar, Primex, or any other integrator, instrumentation, controls, and SCADA seem to be one of the more frustrating aspects of pump station and treatment plant startups, hidden from most eyes except operations. Jeff Inferrera is experienced at testing and troubleshooting I&C and SCADA, (including SCADA architecture, loop to loop testing, alarm lists, historian and trending) and will take the lead so that there is a smooth transition for operations. ➢ Tunnelling - ICM has a specialty tunnelling inspector on our team to enforce Agency and CalTrans requirements.
➢ Difficult Pipeline Construction - Joe Saylor is our experienced pipeline inspector that is knowledgeable of rock excavation and different
types of tunnelling. If the contractor has
difficulties, Joe will inform the team if an extra
is warranted or not and any impacts.
➢ Narrow easements - The engineer will need to
design custom thrust blocks where there is
insufficient room to pour a standard thrust block.
➢ Congestion of Underground Utilities - As we
build the pipeline and fiber optic extension
through the treatment plant, we will encounter
underground utility conflicts that will need good
locational information for the engineer to decide
on alternative pipe and fiber optic locations. We
will give the engineer advice on how to route the
pipe and fiber optic around conflicts.
➢ Long Equipment Delivery Times - The District
should consider pre-purchase of equipment such
as the emergency generators, electrical panels
and switchgear, VFDs, and vertical turbine pumps to avoid project delays.

Construction Management and Inspection Tasks
We agree with the Scope of Services presented in the RFP under "Construction Phase" and "Construction Completion and Closeout". We acknowledge the "Assumptions” presented in the RFP. We would like to add the following tasks/clarifications:

1. We suggest ICM provides each Agency with a monthly report for each project (an example is provided in the Appendix)

2. We have included Madrone Ecological on our team to assist with environmental awareness training and ecological surveys to comply with permit requirements for Contract 2 only.

3. ICM field staff will assist with public relations on an as needed basis.

4. For general construction inspection services, we anticipate having full time inspection during excavations and underground pipeline installation. However, depending on the task, above ground work at pump stations and surface work at pipelines, may be full time or part time.

5. ICM’s construction managers will review the contractors’ CPM baseline schedules and updates. ICM will maintain a master schedule that will consist of time critical milestones and tasks, and share this schedule with the project teams. However, the master schedule will exclude the granularity that is required in the contractors’ baseline schedules.

6. For special inspection and material testing, ICM has included Youngdahl on our team.

7. We have included American River Environmental on our team to assist with SWPPP QA audits. Since all three contractors are responsible for SWPPP planning and inspection per their contracts, this task is oversight only.

8. Labor compliance monitoring will be done on a periodic basis by ICM staff, not with a specialty firm certified in labor compliance monitoring.

9. We have included a separate budget item for warranty assistance.

10. We will track our work under two task orders, one for Contracts 1A and 1B and the other for Contract 2 or to meet the needs of the Agencies.

Exclusions to our Scope of Services are as follows:

1. Environmental surveys to be performed by others for
Contract 1A and 1B.

2. We exclude ADA compliance certification and/or
warranty.

3. We exclude SWPPP plan development, SWPPP
certification and SWPPP uploading to State web site.

SWPPP monitoring to be performed by contractors.

4. We exclude surveying by a CA licensed Land
Surveyor, it is to be done by the contractor.

5. We exclude construction staking.

6. We exclude engineering support services such as
technical review of submittals and RFIs with the
exception of schedule submittal, schedule of values
submittal, and RFIs better answered by our field
staff.

7. ICM is not responsible for Contractor's safety or safety program.

8. ICM is not responsible for Contractor's schedule.

ICM is qualified to provide construction management and inspection services for the Regional Sewer Pipeline Project. With the successful completion of over 20 pump station projects (including potable water pump stations) and over 50 pipeline projects (including 30" mortar lined and coated steel pipe), the Regional Sewer Pipeline Project is exactly the type of project that we focus on and excel. We have the following unique ideas:

1. The HDD and jack and bore tasks have unique challenges. We have assigned an inspector who has successfully completed many tunnelling projects and will keep the tunnelling tasks on track.

2. To enhance project productivity and to build top performing teams, we encourage open team communication. This is accomplished in two very crucial ways. First, we believe in the practice of subsidiarity. This allows issues to be resolved at the field level while management is kept informed. As such, we allow the contractor and engineer to call each EID, Town Center Force Main

other and discuss the issues at hand for quick resolution. It may be a submittal missing a piece of information, or a conflict with an existing structure. These phone calls are followed up with emails and RFIs and are reviewed at each weekly progress meeting. In so doing, the project advances more rapidly and, at the same time, everyone is made aware of issues.

If the issue is too difficult or complex to handle at the field level, special meetings are held to resolve the issue. At any time this approach can be changed to a rigid hierarchical communication structure, depending on the project needs.

The second approach is to use the features of today’s
document management systems, such as ProCore, to
allow for concurrent review of submittals and RFIs. This means that the contractor will transmit a submittal
directly to the engineer who will answer that submittal directly back to the contractor, while the CM and Agency is reviewing the document concurrently. This concurrent review process saves a significant amount of time and
will help us to complete the projects on time. At any time this approach can be changed to the more traditional,
rigid “hub and spokes” approach, where all RFIs and
submittals are first routed through the construction
manager.

3. Open Item List. At 75 percent completion, ICM will
issue an Open Item List to the contractor. The Open Item List is similar to a Punchlist. It itemizes the incomplete work so that the contractor has a good understanding of the components ICM considers requiring attention. This allows the contractor to complete this work prior to demobilization, rather than later, after Substantial Completion. In this way, the Punchlist should be small and quickly resolved.

4. Control of Costs: ICM is firm but fair in determining equitable adjustments for time and money. We will keep the Agencies appraised of potential changes on a regular basis. We perform an independent cost estimate for change orders. We are meticulous in every change having a paper trail and detailed, appropriately approved paperwork.

5. Control of Contactor’s Schedule: ICM performs our own schedule review. We verify the schedule meets the requirements of the Construction Contract. We review the project milestones and critical tasks. We will develop a master schedule of the three projects that will allow all parties to see the track of the projects, especially as we get close to start up.

ICM will work with Control Point, Frisch, and the contractors to develop a master startup schedule, this being one of the most critical aspects of the projects.

The Agencies are starting their projects with excellent design firms and three successful contractors, all with great reputations. ICM offers the Agencies a local firm who knows the local project participants, a firm with the know-how to deliver you three successful projects and successfully get them to function together. Our approach is thorough, and detail oriented, but it is also simple, without many layers of redundancy. This allows you to be in direct contact with our team leaders on a daily basis.

Quality Assurance/Quality Control (QA/QC)
The purpose of ICM’s Quality Assurance/Quality Control
program is to verify that the Project is constructed to the highest levels of quality and for overall construction contract compliance. Our QA/QC program has two components: our staff and our standard operating procedures. All our staff are part of ICM’s QA/QC program in differing capacities as follows. The managers of the QA/QC program are Jeffrey Inferrera, Ricardo Bedoy, Paul Lopez, and Garrett Shonkwiler.

Jeffrey Inferrera is the lead manager of, and has ultimate responsibility for, ICM’s QA/QC program. Jeff is assisted by Ricardo Bedoy, Paul Lopez, and Garrett Shonkwiler. Ricardo is a California Licensed Civil Engineer with over 35 years of experience as a construction manager and resident engineer of small and large water and wastewater public works projects. Paul has over 35 years of experience as a construction inspector of small and large water and wastewater public works projects.

Garrett Shonkwiler has recently joined ICM to assist with our QA/QC program and has an accounting degree.

Supporting the QA/QC team are our experienced staff made up of two construction managers and 13 inspectors, each with more than 10 years in the water and wastewater public works industry. These engineers and inspectors are experienced and qualified. We love encouraging and training the next generation of engineers and inspectors. Currently, we have one “junior” engineer and one “junior” inspector, with less than 10 years of experience, and they are trained by our more experienced staff.

To maintain quality, we use Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs). These procedures include QA/QC procedures, inspection procedures and administration procedures.

The purpose of the QA/QC SOPs is to oversee our construction management and inspection services. This is accomplished by our QA/QC team. Through periodic, as well as random, review of ICM’s work products, we are able to maintain and improve our work.

The purpose of the inspection SOPs is to attain high quality construction. The inspection procedures set the standard for the review and inspection of the contractor’s quality of construction for each trade’s workmanship, products, and installation. It also includes quality control testing standards.

The purpose of the administration SOPs is to provide our Owner’s with the documentation needed to assist with project technical needs and for claims support. The administration procedures provide standards for project documentation, file retention and file retrieval. They address the accuracy, completeness and timeliness of project meeting minutes, contract change orders, progress payments, schedule reviews, submittal reviews, RFI reviews, labor compliance documentation, as-builts, and other
reports/deliverables.

Schedule/Schedule Impacts
Based on Mozingo's November 2026 schedule update, the Interim Milestone is scheduled to be completed significantly late, shown as September 22, 2026. The pump station is scheduled to be on-line by February 28, 2026. However, the pipeline is running late which can be traced back to the earlier project delays that are telegraphing through the schedule. The pump station cannot be started until the 24 inch Facility 10 pipeline is disinfected and accepted by the District. The Interim Milstone is expected to be completed in March or April but possibly to take until September 22, 2026 and is weather dependent.

Currently, winter weather is delaying the pipeline installation portion of the project because the earthwork equipment cannot work on the slick and steep soils in wet weather. However, with a number of dry and sunny days, the contractor is able to continue construction, thus the entire winter season will not be lost and some productive work will continue. The less rain means the closer the pipeline will be ready around the February 28, 2026 milestone.

Wheatland-OPUD
Regional Sewer Pipeline Project
Cost Proposal Assumptions
To plan construction management and inspection resource allocation for the Regional Sewer Pipeline Project, we used the requirements of the Agency’s Request for Proposal, project plans and specifications, and our experience on other similar projects. Assumptions we used to develop our proposed budget are explained below.

Important Dates and Times
• We assume that construction management services will start mid June 2026. • We estimate the latest Final Completion Date will be in September 2028. • We assume construction management services will end by September 2028. • Our budget assumes Contractor and all of its subcontractors will work 8-hour days. • We assume that the Contractor and all of its subcontractors will start their work day and end their work day at the same time.

Comments on Pipeline

1. In regards the duration of pipeline projects, typical production rates for these types of pipes are 200 to 400 LF per day. Considering the impact of existing utilities, we assumed the lower production rate of 200 LF per day. which equates to durations provided in the budget table. Our assumption is based on each pipeline project having one pipe laying crew for excavation, lay, and backfill, and one appurtenance crew.

2. In regards the duration of pump station and associated treatment plant work, we based their durations on our recently completed Bogue Road Wastewater Pump Station Project in Yuba City.

The Bogue Road Wastewater Pump Station has a similar size and complexity as Contract 1B pump stations 1, 2, and 3. We increased the duration for Pump Station 21.

Weather Impacts
We assume that inclement weather in the winter months will stop pipeline work for two months.

Assumptions for Resident Engineers Hours
For all three contracts of their size and complexity, an experienced construction manager, such as Jeffrey Inferrera and Ricardo Bedoy, will have a utilization on average of 50 percent. Their hours are reflected accordingly in the Proposed Budget Table.

Assumptions for Pipeline Inspector Hours
For this project, based on the pipe size and trenching, we assume a pipe installation production rate of 200 LF per day. It is common to have one pipe laying crew and one appurtenance crew working at the same time. One inspector with Scott Ahlstrom and Joe Saylor's experience can inspect two crews, one laying pipe and the other installing appurtenances on the same pipeline segment.
182
Section 6, Item # 6.3
5/20/26 2 ICM
Assumptions for Tunnelling Inspector Hours
We assume each trenchless crossing is 4 weeks long, with 2 weeks of boring, and they are all completed in the first dry season. Our team includes Casey Kirk, an experienced tunnelling inspector.

Assumptions for Pump Station Inspector Hours
We have budgeted for one full time pump station inspector for Contract 1B, Paul Lopez, and one full time pump station inspector for Contract 2, Matt Livingston. Paul Lopez and Matt Livingston are both experienced inspectors who are qualified to all trades. However, we have allotted additional hours for other inspectors to help them on an as needed basis. This additional support will be used for inspecting specific technical details or to supplement field staff when work is at peak construction activity.

Assumptions for Electrical Inspector Hours
Our electrical inspector, Akil Barris, ICC, will provide specialty electrical inspection for the pump stations on a part time basis, as needed. His hours are incorporated in the budget table.

Assumptions for Material Testing Inspector Hours
Youngdahl will provide material testing services for Contract 1A and 1B. For Contract 2, since the contractor is responsible for material testing, we have included QA testing services.

Youngdahl’s work is included in the budget table.

Assumptions for SWPPP Inspection Hours
All three projects require the contractors to provide SWPPP services including design and inspection. American River Environmental will provide SWPPP quality assurance on an as needed basis.

Assumptions for Public Relations Hours
CirclePoint, an experienced public relations firm, will provide public relations support on an as needed basis. We based their budget on their work for our recent Arden Area Main Lines Project for Sacramento County Water Agency.

NACE Certified Coatings Inspection
Wastewater pump stations normally have specialty coatings. We have included the services of Bay Area Coatings Consultants, a NACE certified coatings inspection firm, to provide these services. Our proposed budget includes an estimate of the needed resource allocation.

Licensed Land Surveying
Since there are multiple pipelines and connections, we have included R.E.Y. Engineers to provide survey quality insurance services. They will verify, at the start of the job, that all contractors are using the same coordinate systems and check for errors.

Assumptions for Labor Compliance
The Cummings Group used the project information to develop a labor compliance budget which is included in the budget table.
183
Section 6, Item # 6.3
5/20/26 3 ICM
Project Engineering
We have budgeted for an engineer, Roman Gary, M.S., to assist with conformed drawings, as built drawings, RFI and submittal coordination.

Administrative Services
We provide, on an as needed basis, the services of our administrators who are experienced with ProCore, VPM, and other document management systems and the other miscellaneous project tasks.

Warranty Support Services
We have provided warranty support services for past pump station and treatment plant projects.

The number of hours required to assist operations and maintenance staff is minimal. We included what we consider sufficient budget.

Other Considerations
• In the future event that we discover that our assumptions were not accurate, we will need to be afforded the opportunity to adjust our budget accordingly or change our scope of services so that we can meet the Agency's needs while being properly reimbursed for our services. This is because the actual construction management and inspection budget needed to provide the Agency with the resource allocation needed to meet their needs is dependent on the contractor's actual schedule, productivity and progression of their work, resource allocation, and material availability and delivery, which is not known at this time. Additional inspection support above and beyond what is budgeted may be appropriate depending on these and other factors.
• This budget is in agreement with RFP Scope of Services with comments in our Proposal. • This proposal is based on a time and materials contract. This cost proposal is only an estimate; actual labor effort will be dependent on the contractors’ schedule. Budgeted hours and cost proposal may change based on the actual project schedule. ICM reserves the right to transfer budgeted hours between contracts, between projects, and between tasks and subtasks.
• This proposal excludes hiring of an inspector apprentice which can be required by the State Department of Industrial Relations although we have not seen it done to date and have not included hours for an apprentice.
• Contractors will provide office space and utilities at the job site for construction management and inspection staff. These costs have not been included in the proposed budget.

Proposal Exclusions

1. We exclude ADA compliance certification and/or warranty.

2. Our inspectors will note and address SWPPP violations in their normal daily activities. However, ICM will not provide SWPPP special inspection services except for QA inspection as needed. We exclude SWPPP plan development, SWPPP certification and SWPPP uploading to State web site.

3. We exclude surveying by a California Licensed Land Surveyor except as QA inspection only.

4. We exclude construction staking.

5. We exclude litigation, arbitration, or other dispute resolution support. These are optional services we can add.

6. We exclude engineering support services such as technical review of submittals and RFIs with the exception of schedule submittal, schedule of values submittal, and RFIs better answered by our field staff.

7. We exclude submittal and RFI routing and/or review through or by ICM. Routing of submittals and RFIs will be by direct transmission from contractor to engineer (and vice versa) with copies to ICM and Owner. Transmission will be by ProCore, or equal, document management system. Review of submittals will be performed by the design engineer and Owner.

8. We provide daily field reports and daily inspection reports. We exclude building official reports or sign offs as well as project final inspection reports. However, this can be provided as additional services if needed.

9. ICM is not responsible for Contractor's safety or safety program.

10. ICM is not responsible for Contractor's schedule.
