CITY a waiver of any right to subrogation which any insurer of CONTRACTOR may acquire
against CITY by virtue of the payment of any loss under such insurance. CONTRACTOR
agrees to obtain any endorsement that may be necessary to effect this waiver of subrogation, but
this provision applies regardless of whether or not CITY has received a waiver of subrogation
endorsement from the insurer.

termination of this Agreement, said insurance coverage shall survive for a period of not less than
five years.
6. The insurance policies shall provide for a retroactive date of placement
coinciding with the effective date of this Agreement.

insured.

satisfied by either the named insured or CITY or other additional insured party. At CITY's option,

related investigations, claims administration, attorney's fees and defense expenses.

MANAGER or CITY'S City Attorney all of the following: (1) Certificates of Insurance
evidencing the insurance coverage required in this Agreement; (2) a copy of the policy
declaration page and/or endorsement page listing all policy endorsements for the commercial
general liability policy, and _(3) excerpts of policy language or specific endorsements
evidencing the other insurance requirements set forth in this Agreement. CITY reserves the
right to obtain a full certified copy of any insurance policy and endorsements from
CONTRACTOR. Failure to exercise this right shall not constitute a waiver of the right to
exercise it later. The insurance shall be approved as to form and sufficiency by PROJECT
MANAGER and the City Attorney.

A. Except as otherwise provided in Paragraph B., CONTRACTOR shall, to the
fullest extent permitted by law, indemnify, release, defend with counsel approved by CITY, and
hold harmless CITY, its officers, agents, employees and volunteers (collectively, the "City
Indemnitees"), from and against any claim, demand, suit, judgment, loss, liability or expense of
any kind, including but not limited to attorney's fees, expert fees and all other costs and fees of
litigation, (collectively "CLAIMS"), arising out of CONTRACTOR'S performance of its
obligations or conduct of its operations under this Agreement. The CONTRACTOR's
obligations apply regardless of whether or not a liability is caused or contributed to by the active
or passive negligence of the City Indemnitees. However, to the extent that liability is caused by
the active negligence or willful misconduct of the City Indemnitees, the CONTRACTOR's
indemnification obligation shall be reduced in proportion to the City Indemnitees' share of
liability for the active negligence or willful misconduct. In addition, the acceptance or approval
of the CONTRACTOR's work or work product by the CITY or any of its directors, officers or
employees shall not relieve or reduce the CONTRACTOR's indemnification obligations. In the
event the City Indemnitees are made a party to any action, lawsuit, or other adversarial
proceeding arising from CONTRACTOR'S performance of or operations under this
Agreement, CONTRACTOR shall provide a defense to the City Indemnitees or at CITY'S
option reimburse the City Indemnitees their costs of defense, including reasonable attorneys'
fees, incurred in defense of such claims.
B. Where the services to be provided by CONTRACTOR under this Agreement are
design professional services to be performed by a design professional as that term is defined
under Civil Code Section 2782.8, CONTRACTOR shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law,
indemnify, release, defend and hold harmless the City Indemnitees from and against any
CLAIMS that arise out of, pertain to, or relate to the negligence, recklessness, or willful
misconduct of CONTRACTOR in the performance of its duties and obligations under this
Agreement or its failure to comply with any of its obligations contained in this Agreement,
except such CLAIM which is caused by the sole negligence or willful misconduct of CITY. In
no event shall the cost to defend charged to the design professional exceed the design
professional's proportionate percentage of fault.
C. The defense and indemnification obligations of this Agreement are undertaken in
addition to, and shall not in any way be limited by, the insurance obligations contained in this
Agreement, and shall survive the termination or completion of this Agreement for the full period
of time allowed by law.
12. NONDISCRIMINATION.
CONTRACTOR shall not discriminate, in any way, against any person on the basis of age,
sex, race, color, religion, ancestry, national origin or disability in connection with or related to the
performance of its duties and obligations under this Agreement.

and hold harmless CITY, its officers, agents and employees from any and all damages, liabilities,
penalties, fines and all other consequences from any noncompliance or violation of any laws,
ordinances, codes or regulations.
14. NO THIRD PARTY BENEFICIARIES.
CITY and CONTRACTOR do not intend, by any provision of this Agreement, to create in
any third party, any benefit or right owed by one party, under the terms and conditions of this
Agreement, to the other party.

Re: Geotechnical Observation and Testing During Construction
Multi -Use Pathway — Phase 1
Second Street to Andersen Drive
City Project 11309
San Rafael, California
Introduction
D
MUM RUN
fNGIRffBIH6 GROUP
As requested, this letter includes our scope of services and budget estimate for the construction
phase of the Multi -Use Pathway between Second Street and Andersen Drive in San Rafael. The
work will include about %2 -mile of new pathway, some of which will be pile supported and some
will be "at -grade" and supported by new sheetpile or block retaining wall. We understand it will
take an estimated three weeks to install the 52 new piles and four weeks for sheetpile installation.
Other details about the construction schedule are also uncertain.
Scope of Services
Based on our understanding of the plans, experiences with similar projects and understanding of
the City's desires, our scope of services will include intermittent and full time geotechnical
observation and testing of the foundation (concrete) piles and steel sheetpiles, as follows:
1. Attendance at a pre -construction meeting to discuss the schedule, geotechnical testing
and other items. Consultation about other "geotechnical" aspects of the project is also
included in our budget estimate.
2. Observation of pile driving, including "test" piles and review of the provided CapWap
analysis.
3. Intermittent observations and/or be available for consultation during sheet pile installation
4. Preparation of a letter report upon completion of site work summarizing our observations
and tests.
Budget Estimate
We will provide our services on a time -and -expense basis in accordance with the terms and
conditions of our existing "on-call" Agreement with the City. The attached budget spreadsheet
summarizes our anticipated site visits (number and duration) for the work items listed above, and
we estimate our fees will be $26,000. We have included a contingency based on the potential for
inadequate, incomplete or "extra" work at the time of our site visits and note our fees will be
dependant on the contractor's workmanship, scheduling, the presence of soft soils and other
factors. We will work closely with the project consultants, contractor and City Staff to efficiently
