B. DBEs and other small businesses are strongly encouraged to participate in the performance of
Agreements financed in whole or in part with federal funds (See 49 CFR 26, "Participation by
Disadvantaged Business Enterprises in Department of Transportation Financial Assistance
Programs"). The CONSULTANT should ensure that DBEs and other small businesses have the
opportunity to participate in the performance of the work that is the subject of this solicitation and

discriminate on the basis of race, color, national origin, or sex in the award and performance of
subcontracts.

controlled by DBEs.
D. It is the CONSULTANT's responsibility to be fully informed regarding the requirements of 49 CFR,

attention is directed to the following:
1. A DBE must be a small business firm defined pursuant to 13 CFR 121 and be certified through
the California Unified Certification Program (CUCP).
2. A certified DBE may participate as a prime contractor, subcontractor, joint venture partner, as a
vendor of material or supplies, or as a trucking company.
A DBE proposer not proposing as a joint venture with a non -DBE, will be required to document
one or a combination of the following:
i. The proposer is a DBE and will meet the goal by performing work with its own forces.
ii. The proposer will meet the goal through work performed by DBE subcontractors, suppliers
or trucking companies.
iii. The proposer, prior to proposing, made adequate good faith efforts to meet the goal.
Page 5 of 17
4. A DBE joint venture partner must be responsible for specific contract items of work or clearly
defined portions thereof. Responsibility means actually performing, managing, and supervising
the work with its own forces. The DBE joint venture partner must share in the capital
contribution, control, management, risks and profits of the joint venture commensurate with its
ownership interest.
5. A DBE must perform a commercially useful function pursuant to 49 CFR 26.55, that is, a DBE
firm must be responsible for the execution of a distinct element of the work and must carry out
its responsibility by actually performing, managing and supervising the work.
6. The proposer shall list only one subcontractor for each portion of work as defined in their
proposal and all DBE subcontractors should be listed in the bid/cost proposal list of
subcontractors.
7. A prime contractor who is a certified DBE is eligible to claim all of the work in the Agreement
toward the DBE participation except that portion of the work to be performed by non -DBE
subcontractors.
E. CONSULTANTS shall adhere to the following regarding subconsultants:
Nothing contained in this Agreement or otherwise, shall create any contractual relation between
the LOCAL AGENCY and any subconsultant, and no subcontract shall relieve the
CONSULTANT of his/her responsibilities and obligations hereunder. The CONSULTANT
agrees to be as fully responsible to the LOCAL AGENCY for the acts and omissions of its
subconsultants and of persons either directly or indirectly employed by any of them as it is for
the acts and omissions of persons directly employed by the CONSULTANT. The
CONSULTANT's obligation to pay its subconsultants is an independent obligation from the
LOCAL AGENCY's obligation to make payments to the CONSULTANT.
Any subcontract in excess of $25,000, entered into as a result of this Agreement, shall contain all
the provisions stipulated in this Agreement to be applicable to subconsultants.
CONSULTANT shall pay its subconsultants within ten (10) calendar days from receipt of each
payment made to the CONSULTANT by the LOCAL AGENCY.
4. Any substitution of subconsultants must be approved in writing by the LOCAL AGENCY's
Contract Manager in advance of assigning work to a substitute subconsultant.
F. The following shall pertain to the performance of DBE consultants and other DBE
Subconsultants/Suppliers:
A DBE performs a commercially useful function when it is responsible for execution of the
work of the Agreement and is carrying out its responsibilities by actually performing, managing,
and supervising the work involved. To perform a commercially useful function, the DBE must
also be responsible with respect to materials and supplies used on the Agreement, for negotiating
price, determining quality and quantity, ordering the material, and installing (where applicable)
and paying for the material itself. To determine whether a DBE is performing a commercially
useful function, evaluate the amount of work subcontracted, industry practices; whether the
amount the firm is to be paid under the Agreement is commensurate with the work it is actually
performing; and other relevant factors.
2. A DBE does not perform a commercially useful function if its role is limited to that of an extra
participant in a transaction, Agreement, or project through which funds are passed in order to
obtain the appearance of DBE participation. In determining whether a DBE is such an extra
participant, examine similar transactions, particularly those in which DBEs do not participate.
Page 6 of 17
If a DBE does not perform or exercise responsibility for at least 30 percent of the total cost of its
Agreement with its own work force, or the DBE subcontracts a greater portion of the work of the
Agreement than would be expected on the basis of normal industry practice for the type of work
involved, it will be presumed that it is not performing a commercially useful function.
G. The following shall pertain to Prompt Payment of Funds Withheld to Subcontractors:
No retainage will be held by the LOCAL AGENCY from progress payments due the prime
CONSULTANT. Any retainage held by the prime CONSULTANT or subconsultants from
progress payments due subconsultants shall be promptly paid in full to subconsultants within 30
days after the subconsultant's work is satisfactorily completed. Federal law (49 CFR26.29)
requires that any delay or postponement of payment over the 30 days may take place only for
good cause and with the LOCAL AGENCY's prior written approval. Any violation of this
provision shall subject the violating prime CONSULTANT or subconsultant to the penalties,
sanctions and other remedies specified in Section 7108.5 of the Business and Professions Code.
These requirements shall not be construed to limit or impair any contractual, administrative, or
judicial remedies, otherwise available to the prime CONSULTANT or subconsultant in the event
of a dispute involving late payment or nonpayment by the prime CONSULTANT, deficient
subconsultant performance, or noncompliance by a subconsultant. This provision applies to both
DBE and non -DBE prime CONSULTANT and subconsultants.
2. Any subcontract entered into as a result of this Agreement shall contain all of the provisions of
this section.
H. The following shall pertain to DBE Records:
The CONSULTANT shall maintain records of materials purchased and/or supplied from all
subcontracts entered into with certified DBEs. The records shall show the name and business
address of each DBE or vendor and the total dollar amount actually paid each DBE or vendor,
regardless of tier. The records shall show the date of payment and the total dollar figure paid to
all firms. DBE prime consultants shall also show the date of work performed by their own forces
along with the corresponding dollar value of the work.
2. Upon completion of the Agreement, a summary of these records shall be prepared and submitted
on the form entitled, "Final Report -Utilization of Disadvantaged Business Enterprise (DBE),
First -Tier Subcontractors," CEM -2402F (Exhibit 17-F, Chapter 17, of the LAPM), certified
correct by the CONSULTANT or the CONSULTANT's authorized representative and shall be
furnished to the Contract Manager with the final invoice. Failure to provide the summary of
DBE payments with the final invoice will result in 25% of the dollar value of the invoice being
withheld from payment until the form is submitted. The amount will be returned to the
CONSULTANT when a satisfactory "Final Report -Utilization of Disadvantaged Business
Enterprises (DBE), First -Tier Subcontractors" is submitted to the Contract Manager.
I. The following shall pertain to DBE Certification and Decertification Status:
1. If a DBE subconsultant is decertified during the life of the Agreement, the decertified
subconsultant shall notify the CONSULTANT in writing with the date of decertification. If a
subconsultant becomes a certified DBE during the life of the Agreement, the subconsultant shall
notify the CONSULTANT in writing with the date of certification. Any changes should be
reported to the LOCAL AGENCY's Contract Manager within 30 days.

Scope of Work — Southern Heights Bridge Replacement
PHASE 1 — PRELIMINARY ENGINEERING
For this HBP project, the MTCo team will follow the scope of work below for the Southern Heights Bridge Replacement Project
in the City of San Rafael. Based on our review of the project site, our knowledge of the area, previous projects within the City,
discussions with Caltrans staff, and information we have gathered from the RFP, these following scope items are necessary to
accomplish our proposed work approach. MTCo will diligently perform this scope of work and will be responsible for items of
work under this contract to the extent that issues arising from the performance of these services are within our reasonable
control, and that MTCo's obligation to indemnify and defend are limited to the extent actually caused by MTCo in the
performance of this scope of work.
TASK 1.0 PROJECT MANAGEMENT AND COORDINATION
MTCo will provide overall management of the project, including approvals for preliminary engineering, and coordination with
the City and other stakeholders.
1.1 Project Initiation
MTCo will coordinate a project kick-off meeting with the City and design team to discuss the project background, scope,
concepts, schedule, project management and issues with stakeholders. The project scope and schedule will be verified. MTCo
will provide a project information gathering checklist to collect data elements needed for the design including copies of
pertinent funding agreements and deadlines, completed Caltrans Local Assistance forms and exhibits, preliminary cost
estimates for construction, updated contact information for utilities in the project area, and available bridge as -built drawings,
survey control information, and City -owned facility maps and as -built drawings.
The data gathering process will include a review of the existing site characteristics. MTCo will conduct site visits and take
photographic inventory of existing conditions to reference during the design process. Plans and as-builts for improvements
within project limits will be reviewed.
The MTCo project team will review pertinent plans, studies, policies, and initiatives to ensure that the design complies with
City -approved documents, or to recommend modifications to the documents as necessary.
1.2 Project Management
MTCo will provide management of subconsultants in the performance of their work. Management activities shall also include
development and maintenance of a critical path method (CPM) design schedule and progress reports to be distributed monthly.
The schedule will be updated as progress is made, with critical path activities clearly shown for team review purposes. The
schedule and billings shall be submitted in the form and in sufficient detail to track the project status and contract expenditures
as outlined by the City at the beginning of the project.
1.3 Project Development Team Meetings
Project Development Team (PDT) meetings will be held at the City offices. A total of three PDT meetings are proposed during
this phase of the scope of work. The purpose of the PDT meetings is to provide a forum to share project information, identify
critical issues, make decisions, assign project tasks, identify design criteria, and items critical to project delivery. MTCo will
prepare agendas for each meeting and distribute them to the PDT prior to each meeting. MTCo will facilitate meetings and
prepare meeting minutes with action items. MTCo will endeavor to schedule these meetings to coincide with preparations for
public meetings and the submittal of preliminary studies and design packages.
MARK THOMAS &COMPANY
Scope of Work — Southern Heights Bridge Replacement
1.4 Agency Coordination / Grant Management
MTCo will comply with Caltrans' Local Assistance Procedures Manual (LAPM) and work with the City to develop project approval
documents for the project. It is anticipated that coordination with Caltrans, including Caltrans District 4 Local Assistance,
Structures Local Assistance, and Headquarters, will be required. MTCo will identify potential HBP non -participating items,
strategize solutions for full HBP participating and prepare memos and exhibits necessary for justification of full participation.
MTCo will prepare an updated HBP Funding Application to secure supplemental funding. MTCo will also prepare Requests for
Authorization (RFA) documents for right of way, utility relocation, and construction as the PE phase moves forward.
1.5 Quality Control
The MTCo Quality Control plan consists of established procedures for performing the work (which are reassessed with each
project), including methods for design calculations, establishing appropriate levels of design development for intermediate
submittals, identification of required plan checks, design checklists, and methods of project documentation.
Our QC/QA Manager will implement and maintain these quality control procedures during the preparation of the 35% design
plans and type selection.
Task 1 Deliverables:
• Project Information Gathering Checklist
• Kick-off Meeting Agenda and Minutes
• Monthly Invoices and Status Reports
• Project Schedule & Updates (MS Project)
• PDT Meeting Agendas and Minutes (Up to 3)
• Updated HBP Funding Application
• RFA Package for Right of Way, Utility Relocation, and Construction
TASK 2.0 PRELIMINARY STUDIES AND RESEARCH
2.1 Utility Coordination
MTCo will provide utility coordination for the project to address potential relocations of utility poles and overhead electric and
communications lines and to accommodate utilities on the bridge including natural gas and water. Coordination with utilities
for temporary service during construction will be included for relocated or rerouted facilities. Due to the federal funding
associated with the project, utility coordination services will be conducted in general conformance with Caltrans Local
Assistance and Utility Relocation Manuals. The MTCo team will follow the Utility A -B -C process and will prepare the required
utility certification documents (ROI, NTO, UA). As part of Phase 1 only Utility A letters will be sent. The remainder of the utility
coordination will occur in Phase 2.
A — MTCo will send letters to utility companies with facilities in the area of the project, requesting copies of their
existing facility maps. These maps will become the basis of the project utility mapping.
2.2 Survey and Base Mapping
2.2.1 Project Control
On-site control points and temporary benchmarks will be set for topographic survey tasks. Accurate use of as-builts will be
assisted by searching for benchmarks shown and, if located, tied into the project control network.
MARK THOMAS i COMPANY
Scope of Work — Southern Heights Bridge Replacement
The control will be based horizontally on the California Coordinate System of 1983, Zone 3. Project elevations could be based on
NGVD 29 or upon NAVD88 to facilitate use of as-builts. If provided with control information, MTCo will match that system.
Tnnnrimnhir Ciirvav
The topographic survey will be the primary source of topographic data for the project. The topo area will consist of a 40 -foot
wide corridor centered on Southern Heights Boulevard for 200 feet north and south of the bridge. The existing bridge will be
removed and replaced with this project so limited topographic data will be collected on the existing bridge.
2.2.3 koundary Surve,
MTCo will perform record research to locate recorded right-of-way maps, records of survey, corner records and other maps of
record necessary to determine the Right of Way (ROW) lines of Southern Heights Boulevard and the parcel lines of six parcels
within the area of the proposed project limits. It is assumed that the City will provide with the Preliminary Title Report (PTR) for
six parcels to discover other easements which may affect the project.
After gathering record ROW information, MTCo will conduct a field survey of the project area to search and collect survey
monuments and physical evidence required to establish existing ROW and parcel lines. This data will be analyzed and the
existing ROW of Southern Heights Boulevard and up to six parcels adjacent to the construction area will be delineated. MTCo
assumes centerline monuments or reference marks shown on various maps will be available to retrace ROW and parcels,
without extending the surveys outside the project limits.
During the course of a boundary survey, it is possible that the requirement to file a record of survey will be triggered. This most
often happens by the discovery of conflicts or alternate evidence not shown on recent maps. Should such a conflict or other
evidence be discovered, work will stop and the project team will be notified. Work will continue when an agreement has been
reached on a path forward and additional budget for a record of survey has been secured.
EVEI.ERF"
MTCo will prepare base mapping for the site using data gathered during the topographic field survey. Base maps will be
prepared at a scale of 1"=40' with a 1' contour interval and will be completed in AutoCAD Civil 3D 2012 format.
2.3 Geotechnical Investigation
MTCo's subconsultant, Parikh Consultants, Inc. (Parikh), will prepare foundation report and log of test borings for the proposed
new bridge structure. Following is a task breakdown for the proposed work.
2.3.1 research and uata Loilectimi
Parikh will review readily available geologic and soil literature in the vicinity of the site including review of any as -built
drawings and existing Log of Test Borings (LOTB), if any.
Parikh will comply with the Marin County Drilling Permit requirements and City of San Rafael encroachment Permit
requirements. It is expected that the borings will be in the open areas near the two abutments. A total of two borings are
assumed. Exploration through the bridge deck is not proposed since the bridge has a load limit and it is too narrow for a drilling
operation. Boring locations will be marked and USA will be called for clearances.
2.3.2 Field Exploration
The proposed boring program will include borings at or near the abutments to a depth of 80-100 feet maximum. The boring
locations will depend upon the permitted access and any boring data from previous studies. Parikh anticipates using a truck
mounted hollow stem auger drill rig (or mud -rotary drill rig if needed) for their work. No traffic control is assumed at this time
tMARK THOMAS &COMPANY
Scope of Work — Southern Heights Bridge Replacement
as it is expected that the City will close the bridge to facilitate the drilling. If traffic control is required it can be provided for
additional cost.
Parikh will classify and continuously log subsurface soil conditions encountered in each test boring at the time of drilling and
obtain "relatively undisturbed" and bulk samples of substrata from test borings. The borings will be drilled and capped in
accordance with the permit requirements.
aaoratory jesting
Parikh will perform laboratory tests on representative soil samples such as moisture density, unconfined compression,
gradation analyses, R -value tests, corrosion tests and Plasticity Index test, as necessary.
2.3.Z�naineerina Analvsis/Evaluation
Parikh will perform engineering analyses and develop design recommendations for the proposed bridge foundation system.
Parikh will prepare a brief Preliminary Foundation Memorandum summarizing anticipated earth materials and conditions
based on reference data, seismic input parameters consistent with current Caltrans practice, and feasible foundation types for
the structure. Alternate foundation systems such as CIDH piles, CISS piles, or Caltrans standard piles will be discussed.
Pavement design will be based on R -value test results and Traffic Index that will be provided by the City. Parikh will discuss
seismic considerations, evaluate the liquefaction potential and comment on the site soil conditions. Information related to
Caltrans Seismic Design Criteria (SDC v 1.7 - 2010 and updates 2012 version) will be provided. Information related to the revised
Seismic Design Guidelines (2010) and the ARS curves will also be provided.
Task 2 Deliverables:
• Utility A Letters
• Project Base Mapping (AutoCAD Civil 3D 2012)
• Preliminary Foundation Memorandum
TASK 3.0 PUBLIC OUTREACH
MTCo and our subconsultant, Moore lacofano Goltsman, Inc. (MIG), will provide public outreach services for the project.
Following is a task breakdown for the proposed work.
3.1 Project Team Meetings and Coordination
MIG will meet with the Project Team to discuss scope, schedule, budget, roles and responsibilities, coordination, and logistical
issues in order to tailor and refine the community outreach process. These meetings will provide an opportunity to discuss
desired outcomes for the process; review draft workshop content and stakeholder interview questions; and set preliminary
guidelines for the public workshop process.
3.2 Outreach and Engagement
3.2.1 Public Outreach Strategy
MTCo and MIG, will work with the City to develop a public outreach strategy to guide outreach activities. The Outreach Strategy
will identify key stakeholders, interested community groups, target audiences, and effective outreach approaches and a series
of outreach activities to engage these stakeholders in project conversations. Crucial to the strategy are project benchmarks and
a timeline.

MARK THOMAS &COMPANY
Scope of Work — Southern Heights Bridge Replacement
3.2.2 Outreach Template
MIG will develop a template that can be used for outreach and meeting materials. The template will incorporate the City's logo
and provide a standard look and feel for related materials. The template can be adapted for use as a print or electronic flyer
and/or email communication. The outreach template will also be adapted for use in presentations, agenda and related meeting
materials.
3.3 Community Workshops
3.3.1 Community Workshop Design and Preparation
MTCo and MIG will work with the City to confirm meeting objectives, finalize the meeting format and related materials for up
to three community workshops to engage the public in conversations about the bridge replacement. These workshops will also
present relevant background information on the planning process and will provide an opportunity for the community to
interact, discuss, and provide input on the project. MIG will rely on source materials and graphics of the bridge prepared by
MTCo to develop necessary materials for public presentation including digital presentations, polling, handouts, and/or poster
boards.
The workshops will be held at specific locations to be determined by City staff. The community workshops will be structured to
develop a clear understanding of the workshop purpose and to review key community issues related to the analysis of the
project. The workshop format can be fixed or flexible, as appropriate; MIG will work with the City and MTCo to develop a
suitable format. The workshops can be designed to include presentations, large or small group discussions, group
brainstorming, individual or group feedback exercises, and prioritization or ranking of community preferences. MIG will collect
and analyze all workshop results, and will prepare a brief report summarizing the results for each of the workshops. The reports
will be provided in digital format.
Workshop 1: The purpose of this workshop is to begin engaging residents in conversation to obtain their input on property
access issues and design preferences. The meeting will include a short presentation, facilitated discussions and an activity that
helps people share their concerns and values.
Workshop 2: MIG will take the feedback received from Workshop 1 and the resident survey (detailed below) and work with the
Project Team to ensure that community feedback is addressed and incorporated in the bridge redesign. MIG, along with the
MTCo team, will facilitate a community meeting where the conceptual bridge designs will be exhibited to the community. This
will provide stakeholders an opportunity to assess how the preliminary bridge replacement design addresses community
concerns and design preferences. MIG will record and synthesize the meeting discussion to capture all of the feedback.
Workshop 3: The purpose of this workshop will be to reveal the final design that will be presented to City Council at a City
Council meeting. MIG will give a short presentation that recaps the outreach process and results, exhibits the final design
details for the bridge and approaches, and describes upcoming activities for construction. Participants will provide feedback on
the final design, discuss how the design responded to their concerns and preferences and provide insight on how the final
design achieves the goal of the Southern Heights Bridge Replacement.
3.3.2 Sur%
K^�
Scope of Work — Southern Heights Bridge Replacement
MIG will develop a questionnaire, in cooperation with the MTCo team, to solicit input from residents and interested parties of
the Southern Heights Bridge. The survey will be made available on-line, typically open up to a month, requiring clear advance
communication to potential participants and frequent reminders to complete and submit the survey by the deadline. The
surveys will provide a convenient and effective opportunity for residents to voice their concerns, including property access
issues and design preferences for the bridge replacement. MIG will also develop a paper version of the survey, available to those
who do not have access to the internet in order to ensure that the opinions gathered are reflective of all residents. MIG will
prepare a top -line summary of findings, which will be a key resource designed to inform discussions during subsequent
meetings.

MIG and MTCo will work collaboratively with the City to refine the meeting formats and identify the information needs. MIG
will facilitate and conduct up to three workshops. MIG will bring two staff. Senior Facilitator, Noe Noyola, will serve as the
facilitator and be supported by Project Associate Molly Cooney-Mesker. City staff, community members and MTCo will
participate in the workshops as determined in Task 3.3.1. MIG assumes City staff will arrange for and reserve meeting locations.
MIG will prepare meeting materials. MIG will prepare the agenda, comment cards and sign in sheet for each meeting.
Task 3 Deliverables:
• Outreach Strategy and Materials Template
• Public Outreach Flyer and Survey
• Exhibits and Sketches for Public Meeting
• Public Workshop Presentation and Exhibits
• Public Workshop agendas, comment cards and sign in sheets
TASK 4.0 PRELIMINARY ENGINEERING
4.1 Preliminary (35%) Roadway Plans
This preliminary design phase consists of performing design to 35% level. This phase will define the project limits in support of
the environmental studies and document decisions made to permit final design to begin.
Upon completion of the base mapping and with consideration for stakeholder and public input, MTCo will prepare 35%
preliminary roadway plans (including horizontal alignment, vertical profile, typical roadway sections, and drainage
modifications) for review by the City. Concurrence from Caltrans District 4 Local Assistance will be required to document
approval of the roadway cross-section and approach limits for HBP funding. A preliminary cost estimate will be prepared for
the 35% design plans.
4.2 Structure Type Selection Report
MTCo will prepare a Structure Type Selection Report to assist the City in determining the best suited structure type for the
project. Two different alternatives will be presented in the report, which will include a General Plan, Foundation Plan, and
General Plan Estimate for each structure type. The report will discuss the advantages and disadvantages of the alternatives and
will address geotechnical and ROW constraints, environmental issues, accessibility issues, and drainage, as well as costs.
MARK THOMAS i COMPANY
Scope of Work — Southern Heights Bridge Replacement
Approval of the Structure Type is required from Caltrans Structure Local Assistance. The General Plan and Foundation Plan
constitute 35% bridge design.
Task 4 Deliverables:
Preliminary (35%) Roadway Plans
Structure Type Selection Report
35% Preliminary Cost Estimate
TASK 5.0 ENVIRONMENTAL INITIATION & TECHNICAL STUDIES
5.1 Project Initiation
LSA Associates (LSA) will participate in a project kick-off meeting with the project engineer and City staff to discuss project
details, access needs, schedule, environmental process and strategy; to receive relevant resource documentation or project
information; and to visit the project site.
5.2 Technical Studies
LSA proposes to conduct the following technical studies identified in the Preliminary Environmental Study (PES). Three copies
of each draft report will be submitted to the City for review, and two copies of each final report will be provided.
5.2.1
LSA will evaluate the biological resources present in the project area and determine project effects to those resources. Based on
a reconnaissance visit to the bridge site conducted by an LSA biologist on March 25, 2016, the site does not contain any
potentially jurisdictional drainages, wetlands, or other sensitive habitat types. There are no features within or adjacent to the
project site requiring a wetland delineation. Additionally, based on a review of the California Natural Diversity Data Base
(CNDDB) and our on-site observations, the project site is unlikely to provide suitable habitat for any federal or state listed
species with the potential to occur in the vicinity. Therefore, our assessment of biological resources will consist of the following:
Research/Coordination: LSA will compile a list of special status species with the potential to occur in the project vicinity from
the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS), the CNDDB and California Native Plant Society (CNPS) Online Database.
Field Survevs: An LSA biologist and certified arborist will conduct the following field surveys:
Determination of the Biological Study Area (BSA): LSA will prepare a map depicting the proposed BSA and submit to the
City for Caltrans approval.
General Field Surveys: LSA will conduct a general field survey within the BSA to map plant communities and assess
habitat conditions and evaluate potential impacts to sensitive biological resources from the projects. During this survey,
LSA will also inspect the existing bridges for the presence of bats and swallows or other nesting birds.
Tree Surveys: LSA will inventory all native trees within the project footprints. Information collected during the inventory
will include species, location, diameter breast height (dbh), height, crown width, and general health. Any distinguishing
characteristics will also be noted. A map and accompanying report will be prepared.
MARK THOMAS i COMPANY
Scope of Work — Southern Heights Bridge Replacement
Plant Surveys: If the initial field surveys indicate the presence of suitable habitat for special status plant species, LSA will
conduct botanical surveys in accordance with the normal blooming period of the target species to ensure that any special
status plants that may occur on the project site are readily identifiable during the surveys. All plant species observed on
the project site will be identified to an appropriate level of taxonomy to determine protection status (if any). A maximum
of two such surveys are assumed.
Documentation: LSA proposes to prepare a Natural Environment Study (Minimal Impacts) (NESMI) to document biological
resources in the project area and evaluate potential project effects to biological resources. The results of the field surveys will be
documented in an NESMI prepared in accordance with the most recent Caltrans' Guidance. The NESMI will include: a site
vegetation map, including the results of the tree survey; a discussion of plant communities present on the site and the
associated animal species expected to occur; an assessment of project impacts on the biological resources present including any
special status species; and recommended avoidance, minimization, and mitigation measures as appropriate. Based on the
CNDDB, the only special status species with the potential to occur in the project vicinity is white -rayed pentachaeta
(Pentachaeta bellidiflora), a state and federally -listed plant species; however the project site is unlikely to provide suitable
habitat for this species. There is the potential for special status bat species as well as nesting bird species to be affected by the
project. Appropriate avoidance and minimization measures will be included for bird and bats, as needed.
Based on our preliminary review, it appears highly likely that the project will have "no effect" or will be "unlikely to adversely
affect" federally listed species; the NES will document this finding. Therefore it is likely that Caltrans will concur that there will
be no need to prepare a Biological Assessment.
5.2.? I"ultural Resources
Evans & De Shazo, LLC, as a subconsultant to LSA, will conduct cultural resource studies that are needed for the City and
Caltrans to address requirements of Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act, NEPA, CEQA, and the Caltrans 2014
First Amended Programmatic Agreement Among The Federal Highway Administration, the Advisory Council on Historic
Preservation, the California State Historic Preservation Officer, and the California Department of Transportation Regarding
Compliance With Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act, as it Pertains to the Administration of the Federal -Aid
Highway Program in California (Section 106 PA).
Evans & De Shazo, LLC will conduct the following tasks to identify cultural resources in the project's Area of Potential Effects
(APE).
Research and Field Investiaation: A complete records search of the APE and a 0.5 -mile radius will be conducted at the NWIC.
The records search and will identify previously recorded or otherwise known cultural resources and previous cultural resource
studies within or adjacent to the APE.
A review of cultural resource inventories will be completed to identify cultural resources that may be listed within or adjacent to
the APE. The following lists will be reviewed: National Register of Historic Places, California Register of Historical Resources,
California Inventory of Historic Resources, California Historical Landmarks, California Points of Historical Interest, Caltrans
Historic Highway Bridge Inventory.
Background research and a literature review, consisting of a review of archaeological, ethnographic, historical, and
environmental publications and maps at historical archives will also be performed. The background research will identify
previously recorded or otherwise known cultural resources in or adjacent to the APE.

MARK THOMAS i COMPANY
Scope of Work — Southern Heights Bridge Replacement
Evans & De Shazo, LLC will contact the Native American Heritage Commission for (1) a review of the Sacred Lands File to
determine if the APE contains any listed sites, and (2) a list of Native American contacts who may have concerns about the APE.
Local Native Americans on that list will be contacted by letter and follow-up telephone calls, as necessary, to inquire about any
concerns or information they may have.
Evans & De Shazo, LLC will consult with Caltrans to determine which resources can be exempted and which will require
evaluation, contact the Marin County History Museum in San Rafael for any information or concerns they may have about the
APE and conduct a pedestrian survey to identify any cultural resources within the APE.
Documentation: Evans & De Shazo, LLC will prepare an Area of Potential Effects (APE) map, a Historic Property Survey Report
(HPSR), an Archaeological Survey Report (ASR), and a Historical Resources Evaluation Report (HRER) per Caltrans standards.
Evans & De Shazo, LLC will prepare DPR 523 forms for up to five built environment resources and one archaeological resource, if
encountered, within the APE.
Tprhnirzl Nnkp Mpmnnnrinm
LSA will prepare a technical noise memorandum consistent with the Caltrans Traffic Noise Analysis Protocol (May 2011)
because the proposed project is a Type 3 project based on 23 CFR 772 (i.e., would not involve in the construction of new
through lanes or auxiliary lanes and substantial changes in the horizontal or vertical alignment of the roadway). The technical
memorandum will also evaluate construction noise impacts in terms of maximum levels (Lmax) and the frequency of
occurrence at adjacent noise -sensitive locations. The construction noise analysis requirements will be based on the sensitivity of
the area and the City's Noise Ordinance specifications.
5.2.c disual Resource,
Construction of a new bridge may alter the appearance of the immediate area. LSA will prepare a Visual Resources Technical
Memorandum to evaluate the aesthetic compatibility of the proposed project with the surrounding area. The memorandum
will consider the consistency of the project with the applicable San Rafael General Plan visual resources policies, the Caltrans
SER, the FHWA Visual Impact Assessment for Highway Projects guidelines, and other applicable regulations and guidance.
Physical changes to the area as a result of the proposed project and the resulting change in appearance will be identified,
documented, and assessed in terms of their visual impact. The area within the project limits will be field inventoried and
documented. The analysis will include ground -level photographs from several viewpoints near the project site. Actual visual
simulations have not been included in this scope of work. Visual conditions and project impacts will be discussed qualitatively.
The gathered information will serve as the visual setting of the project and the baseline condition against which changes in
appearance and potential visual impacts will be determined. Field studies will determine potentially affected viewer groups
within and near the project limits. The nature and extent of evident changes will be described. This information will be used to
assess the potential visual impacts of the project.
The visual resources technical memorandum will determine whether the project will block or disrupt scenic views or vistas,
damage or remove any recognized scenic resources, substantially alter visual quality or visual character within the project
limits, or create a substantial new source of light or glare. The visual assessment will be presented in written form in a technical
memo with supporting maps and graphics. A licensed Landscape Architect will review and sign the Visual Resources Technical
Memo. Following final approval of this memorandum by Caltrans, the analysis and findings will be incorporated into the
environmental documentation for CEQA.
5.2.5 Land Use/Community Impacts Technical Memorandum
Scope of Work — Southern Heights Bridge Replacement
The Land Use Analysis will focus on the project's relationship to local land use patterns and potential land use conflicts,
including compatibility issues associated with nearby residences. Existing on-site and surrounding land uses will be described
and mapped. The compatibility of the proposed project's land uses with existing and planned area land uses will be evaluated
and described. LSA will include an analysis of the project's consistency with relevant, local land use policies (City of San Rafael
General Plan), and zoning regulations for projects adjacent to creeks.
The Community Impact Technical Analysis will be consistent with the guidelines in the FHWA Technical Advisory T6640.8A,
Caltrans CIA Handbook (1997), and other applicable guidance from the FHWA and the Caltrans SER Web sites. The analysis will
describe the public outreach program conducted for the project along with right of way needs, as defined by the project
engineer, including type of land use, how or where right of entry will be and how the proposed project will affect existing land
uses. The project may affect the local community in the short term due to the necessity for temporary detours. The analysis will
describe existing, adopted, and proposed land uses on and in the immediate vicinity project site. Based on the preliminary right
of way information from the project engineer, a technical memorandum will be prepared that summarizes the impacts to all
local right of way resources both during and post -construction. Should any significant right of way conflicts exist, a boundary
survey and further analysis will be necessary. The analysis will provide recommendations to avoid, minimize, and/or mitigate
potential adverse impacts of the proposed project where feasible.

Task 8 Deliverables:
• NEPA CE Checklist
• Administrative Draft IS/MND
• Public Review Draft IS/MND
• FinalIS/MND
It is anticipated that no permanent property acquisition will be required for the proposed project. However, there will be need
to obtain temporary right of entry to adjacent properties during the construction and potential need to acquire temporary
construction easements (TCE's). MTCo's subconsultant, Hamner, Jewel & Associates (HJA), will provide right of way acquisition
services to the City to support preparation of right of entry agreements and TCE's. All R/W activities will follow Caltrans Division
of Local Assistance procedures.
9.1 Right of Way Engineering
Once right-of-way needs have been identified, MTCo will prepare (11 "x17") exhibits for the six impacted parcels. These exhibits
will show the impacted area laid over an aerial photograph. Areas of temporary easement and encumbrances will be shown to
assist in the appraisal process. Additionally, MTCo will prepare up to six legal descriptions with 8-1/2" x 11" plats for Temporary

MARK THOMAS i COMPANY
Scope of Work — Southern Heights Bridge Replacement
Construction Easements. A draft of each legal description and exhibit drawing will be submitted to the City for review and
comments. The legal description and exhibit plat will be stamped and signed only after City approval.
9.2 Right of Way Acquisition
HJA will identify affected property owners; prepare nominal value wavers for up to three TCE's and appraisals for up to three
additional TCE's.
Once the valuation/appraisal process is complete, and the values are reviewed and pre -approved by the City, HJA will prepare
offer packages for each owner that would include an offer letter, Valuation/Appraisal Summary Statement, proposed ROW
Agreement and Temporary Construction Easement Deed, and a right of way acquisition informational brochure. These
documents would be presented to the City for its review and pre -approval prior to presenting offers to property owners. After
offer presentation, HJA would pursue agreements with each owner to finalize the right of way transfers. It is always our goal to
reach mutually acceptable amicable agreements on the City's behalf, and we have a very high success rate of doing so, however
if for any reason we do not gain property owner cooperation, we would consult with the project team and City Attorney if
appropriate to identify optional courses of action.
This scope is based on the understanding that no structures will be impacted and no occupant displacements will occur. No
permanent rights will be required.
Task 9 Deliverables:
• Plats & Legal Descriptions — Up to six (6) TCE's
• Nominal Value Waivers — Up to three (3) parcels
• Appraisals — Up to three (3) parcels
• Acquisitions — Up to six (6) TCE's
TASK 10.0 BIDDING/ CONSTRUCTION SUPPORT
10.1 Bidding / Construction Support
The MTCo team will provide assistance to the City during the bidding process and during construction of the project. The work
may include answering bid inquiries from prospective bidders, attending pre-bid meetings, and preparing addenda to the PS&E
documents during the advertisement period. During construction, the work may include responding to Requests for
Information (RFIs) by the contractor, providing consultation and interpretation of the contract documents, preparing Contract
Change Orders (CCOs), reviewing shop drawings, attending construction meetings and field visits, and preparing a substantial
completion punch list. MTCo has provided a "budget" amount of 80 hours to be used on a time and materials basis as
