APPROVED AS TO FORM City Attorney 0 U �- Engineers Planners Economists Scientists September 16, 1992 SFO340.21 Mr. Robert Pendoley Planning Director City of San Rafael 1400 Fifth Avenue San Rafael, CA 94915-1560 Dear Mr. Pendoley: EXHIBIT "A" Subject: Second Revised Scope of Work for Additional Consulting Services in Connection with the Shoreline Center Environmental Impact Report Pursuant to our telephone conversations with CH2M HILL and City Staff during the period of September 10 through September 16, 1992, we are pleased to submit a second revised scope of work for the Shoreline Center Environmental Impact Report (EIR). This revised scope of work is a modification of the original scope prepared in the August 11, 1992 letter proposal to the City for additional consulting services. The proposed services constitute Phase 2 of the original traffic study, an air quality analysis, and two additional project meetings. This second revised scope is detailed in Attachment A. The total cost for these services is $23,325.00. Based on the City's verbal authorization to proceed during our Septmeber 16, 1992 telephone conversation, we have commenced work on these tasks and will complete the Draft Environmental Impact Report by October 5, 1992. Please call if you have any additional questions. Sincerely, CHUM HILL Jill Shapiro Acting Project Manager CN.2M ,41LL I i I I droadwcv. Sine 12W Ocklcnd. CA 94607.,10-46 510.251.2426 Fox 310.893.8205 Attachment A Second Revised Scope of Work Traffic Study 1. Update and re -distribute the project trips for the Shoreline Center Master Plan (No extra fee). 2. Evaluate traffic impacts of the Shoreline Center Master Plan for the year 2000 (No extra fee). 3. Utifl zing the Highway Capacity level of service methodology, re-evaluate the traffic impacts of the proposed Shoreline Center Master plan at the study intersections (No extra fee). 4. Re-evaluate the level of service of unsignalized intersections by considering the major approaches of the intersections, as requested by the City (No extra fee). 5. Develop a year 2000 traffic network model assuming Kerner Boulevard extension to the project site. If the modelling indicates that mitigation measures are necessary, we will assume that the I-580 freeway improvements as discussed in the City of San Rafael General Plan and EIR will suffice. No additional mitigation will be evaluated for the project (New work). 6. prepare a traffic report documenting the level for service analyses based upon the Highway Capacity Manual methodology (New work). TOTAL COST: $15,840.00 (Task 5: $7,080.00; Task 6: $8,760) Air Quality Analysis 7. Using the CALINE4 computer model, CH2M HILL will estimate maximum ambient carbon monoxide (CO) concentrations from the following four scenarios: background conditions (1995 and 2000); Home Depot plus back¢�round (1995); and Shoreline Center Master Plan plus background (2000). It is assumed that the existing conditions scenario (1991) will not require revision (New work). In accordance with the original air quality study, maximum CO concentrations at nonresidential and residential receptors will be estimated near the intersections of Bellam/Westbound 1-580 Ramps, Bellam/Franciseo, and Bellam/Kerner. It is assumed that these three intersections will continue to possess the greatest potential for maximum CO impacts within the project study area. If it is determined that a different intersection within the project study area may produce maximura CO concentrations, additional scoping would be necessary because existing conditions (1991) would also need to be modelled at this location_ Composite vehicle emission factors for all modelling will be calculated using the most recent publicly available version of the computer model EMFAC7PC (New work). 8. Using the URBEMIS3 computer program, emissions of total organic gases, nitrogen oxides, particulate matter (less than 10 microns in aerometric diameter), and sulfur dioxides resulting from project -generated traffic will be estimated. Estimates for the Home Depot will be calculated for 1995; estimates for the Shoreline Center Master Plan will be calculated for 2000 (New work). 9. Determine the significance of the air quality impacts. CO impacts will be compared to ambient air quality standards. Project -generated emissions of other pollutants will be compared to BAAQMD significance criteria (New work). 10. Modify the air quality impacts and mitigation section to incorporate the results of this new modelling and to appropriately reflect the new assumptions. It is assumed that the existing setting section will not require any modifications (New work). TOTAL COST: $5,300.00 Additional Project Meetings H. CH2M HILL has participated in two project meetings on July 21 and August 6, 1992 with City Staff to discuss traffic issues for this project. The costs estimated for these meetings are based on meeting length and travel time between our Oakland CH2M HILL office and the City of San Rafael (New work). TOTAL COST: $2,185.00 Schedule and Fee Pursuant to our telephone conversation of September 16, 1992, CH2M HILL will initiate this new work immediately. The engineering aspect of this project can be completed by Wednesday, September 30, 1992. We will deliver the completed Draft EIR (DEIR), including the revised traffic and air quality analyses, on Monday, October S. If the City has any comments on other sections of the revised DEIR previously submitted, please contact Terry Babich so we can address these concerns before finalizing the document for public review. For services outline above, we propose an additional $23,325.00. Our proposed fee has been computed only for the services outlined above as "new work." Compensation will be based upon the terms and conditions of our existing Agreement dated September 3, 1991.
