Butl r Vice President, Business Unit Leader EXHIBIT A SCOPE OF SERVICES The Services to be performed for CITY by CONSULTANT under this Agreement are more fully described in CONSULTANT's proposal, which is attached to this Exhibit A. PROJECT SCOPE AND DELIVERABLES: Part A: Community -Informed Technical Feasibility Study For this part, the Consultant's primary responsibility is to complete a community -informed technical feasibility study to evaluate adaptation options that can increase community resilience to relative sea level rise and flooding in the Project Study Area (Figure 1). The options will reflect community priorities, ecological considerations, and technical feasibility, with at least one project option identified along with specific recommendations for further project development and implementation (i.e., considerations for landowner approval, project lead for CEQA and permitting, etc.). Figure 1: Project Study Area Boundary and Primary Engagement Area �� t IV San - Canal District Primary Engagement A� Area 1� OProject Study '". 14 Area Boundary _ 40 Flood Depth, cm t1 �j at 1 meter SLR 0 it•- ' 6 s : lei S The following tasks support development of the community -informed feasibility study. Task A.1: Summarize and confirm vulnerability information for the project study area with a "Briefing Book" Rev. 08.22 This task is intended to build upon prior work completed such as the BayWAVE Vulnerability Analysis, San Rafael Sea -Level Rise Adaptation Study (ESA 2020), and other regional studies. This task will review, synthesize, and present the vulnerability information in a more engaging and visual way than previous efforts. The consultant should strive to present this information in a non -technical way that is accessible to residents with different language and education backgrounds. From a technical perspective, this task will require new mapping and may require very basic modeling but should focus on synthesis. This task should include at a minimum an analysis of the implications of relative sea level rise that are consistent with these sea level rise scenarios used in the 2017 BayWAVE Vulnerability Assessment and the most recent state and federal guidance. 08.22 Working with the project team, the consultant may recommend adjusting these scenarios in order to capture current, near -term, mid-term, and long-term impacts to the Project Study Area. Because previous vulnerability assessments used inundation mapping that relied upon outdated elevation data, this task will require updating the expected flood extents and depths using the most recent 2019 Marin Countywide LiDAR, which will be provided to the consultant. This task will also require revisions to the digital elevation model and additional GIS work to better capture the Study Area's hydrologic connectivity to the Bay and to better reflect the Study Area's inundation paths, both along the shoreline and from interior drainage. The City will provide elevation data to support this work. Initial maps and vulnerability information may need to be revised later in the project to reflect the field data collected by the consultant in task B1. Confirmation of vulnerable assets should include at a minimum the number of impacted housing units, number of people, and businesses affected as well as vulnerability of existing habitats and ecological functions. This task should include a consideration of stormwater drainage, existing flooding, and future sea level rise, in dialogue with City of San Rafael Department of Public Works. The goal of this task is to create publicly accessible maps, visuals, or summaries of this vulnerability information for the community to review. Creative communication formats including video or interactive approaches are also welcome. This task is intended to be public -facing and to create the visual framework for the remainder of the project. Task A.1 Deliverables: Public Facing: A visually engaging and accessible "briefing book" that summarizes the vulnerability to relative sea level rise. This needs to include at a minimum: o An inventory of vulnerable assets o Vulnerability maps by asset type and sea level rise scenario o An executive summary in English and Spanish Corrected GIS maps of expected flood impacts for different sea level rise scenarios based on corrected elevation data and improved assumptions about hydrologic connectivity to SF Bay in the Project Study Area. Subtask A.2a Identify, analyze & present feasible adaptation approaches at different planning horizons The Consultant will identify and analyze a range of possible adaptation approaches to address flood vulnerabilities in the Project Study Area. These adaptation measures should include the full breadth of possibilities (typically described as nature -based, hybrid, and hard infrastructure); however, the framing of potential adaptation measures does not need to be constrained to these three categories and could take on a number of different forms, scenarios, or presentations. All analysis of adaptation approaches should be compared to a no action scenario. During this phase the consultant team will work with the project team to identify the planning horizons and flood impacts that are of greatest concern to the community and tailor adaptation approaches to those concerns. The analysis of adaptation measures should be framed in the context of a baseline scenario (a no action scenario). Analysis of adaptation approaches should include consideration of: • level of fluvial and tidal flood protection Rev. 08 22 • effectiveness at different planning horizons spatial and ecological requirements • permitting requirements (to demonstrate feasibility) • land ownership and access considerations (to demonstrate feasibility) • potential threats and benefits to community posed by each adaptation measure including flooding risks, catastrophic risks associated with infrastructure failure, and displacement non- structural threats like gentrification, economic losses, loss of open space or shoreline access, and other negative economic impacts • co -benefits such as public access, ecology, neighborhood beautification, transit network resilience, etc. (and others to be identified by the community, project team, and consultant) • implications for the preservation of affordable housing, community cohesion, displacement, and community resilience • implications for the resilience —or impairment —of ecological functions and ecosystem services (which may include habitat provision, habitat resilience to sea level rise, water quality improvement, sediment management, carbon sequestration, or other functions) • economic feasibility (which may include order of magnitude level life -cycle cost estimates for different adaptation approaches, losses avoided, fiscal impact analysis, economic modeling or other methods or metrics to be determined in dialog with the project team) Subtask A.2b Present feasible adaptation approaches to elicit feedback from the community The consultant will work with the project team to develop culturally relevant and non -technical visual materials that engage the community and clearly convey the implications of the feasible, cohesive adaptation approaches. The materials will show how each measure relates to relative sea level rise and compound flooding levels, so the community understands "what works when and where". Communication materials need to convey the broad benefits, limitations, and tradeoffs of these different options, including considerations listed above. "Adaptation pathways" or other tools should be used to analyze these approaches and show how adaptation can be phased, achieved incrementally, or when critical points require a change in plan. Quantitative analysis based on physical thresholds like water levels or other metric like economic or environmental damages should be used to demonstrate the implications and trade-offs associated with different measures and to illustrate future risks. Creative communication formats to accompany this analysis including video and interactive approaches are strongly desired. A number of engagement methods may be appropriate including workshops, charrettes, digital engagement or open houses. The consultant will participate in designing an accessible and engaging process and documenting public feedback and integrating that feedback into subsequent iterations. This will require personnel fluent in Spanish. Task A.2 Deliverables: • Public facing: Visual -appealing summaries including graphic renderings of a range of adaptation approaches accompanied by plain -language descriptions in English, Spanish, and ADA accessible formats. • Public facing: Draft and revised presentation of the implications of different adaptation options including the co -benefits and tradeoffs. • Public facing: A short visual summary of public feedback and preferences during this phase • A short technical memo documenting the methods and assumptions used in the analysis Subtask A.3a: Refine and analyze adaptation approaches based on community input Winnowing the range of adaptation measures to a narrower set for more detailed analysis will depend on community priorities, planning horizons and flood impacts that are of greatest concern to the community, technical analyses, feedback from the Steering and Technical Advisory Committees, regulatory feasibility, ecological considerations, alignment with City plans and priorities, and effectiveness at reducing risks from relative sea level rise. During this phase of the project, the broader set of feasible adaptation measures will be refined and developed into more detailed analyses based on the community's expressed priorities and community discussions with consultants and the Project Team about (1) the feasibility and (2) implications and ecological, physical, economic, and safety tradeoffs across different measures. The consultant will host and facilitate community workshops (or other engagement activities) to elicit feedback and refine the potential measures that address sea level rise overtime and spatially in the impacted areas. Place -based renderings and other visuals will be developed by the consultant to support informed discussion about the measures. The consultant will prepare a vivid summary that captures the priorities, reactions, and preferences expressed by community members. Creative and accessible formats for this are encouraged. At a minimum this summary should also describe major points of consensus, priorities, and any preferences that may eliminate other future choices. Documentation of community decisions will remain important beyond this grant -funded process. Subtask A.3b: Summarize technical feasibility study A draft and final study will summarize the benefits, limitations, and tradeoffs presented by the adaptation approaches (or pathways) based on the list considerations analyzed (i.e., physical flood protection, economic, public access, ecological benefits etc.). Synthesis of complex information and visually engaging materials are expected. Creative and engaging formats are very welcome. This study summary should focus on clearly and objectively describing the feasibility and implications of these adaptation approaches in San Rafael including the ecological performance, regulatory feasibility, and potential timelines required for implementation and the longevity of protection provided. This task will include documenting the assumptions, gaps, and constraints with the feasibility of adaptation measures supported by the community. Subtask A.3b: Conceptual design of one adaptation measure The consultant team will research, prepare, and scope at least one spatially specific measure identified through community input for further design. The team will assemble technical and other background documents to assist the city with preparation of a scope of work for undertaking 30% design in a future project phase. Subtask A.3 Deliverables: • Public facing: Summary documentation of community input and priorities, including a brief summary in Spanish • Public facing: Draft Community -Informed Technical Feasibility Study, including an executive summary in Spanish • Final Community -Informed Technical Feasibility Study, including an executive summary in Spanish • A minimum of one sea level rise adaptation measure completed to conceptual design level Part B: Task 131.1: Improve physical science data that underpins the understanding of climate hazards Address critical physical data gaps, including a lack of measurement of current groundwater and surface water levels and how those are responding to rising sea levels and differential settlement. This data is necessary to project how much time remains to deploy adaptation measures and to clarify the potential extent, depth, and severity of compound flooding under future climate conditions. For example, if groundwater is too shallow or too strongly tidally influenced, conventional adaptation measures such as levees may not work. Similarly, understanding the projected rate of subsidence (which has been as fast as 6 inches/decade in some areas) is critical to understanding relative sea level rise, the timing of climate impacts and the vulnerability of existing levees. Another large source of uncertainty are the shoreline elevations along the canal, which are obscured by buildings and other built infrastructure. Determining the condition, elevation, and the geometry of the existing shoreline is necessary to accurately model flood risks. Basic modeling of compound flooding will also help determine the potential severity of flooding in the short term. Information about the stormwater system will be provided by the City. Geotechnical assessments are also needed to determine the technical feasibility of certain adaptation measures, such as a levee district, that have been proposed previously. This task will require field work and knowledge of local hydrogeology. This task will also require providing guidance on how on -going changes related to sea level rise intersect with existing resilience challenges. The exact surveying, monitoring, and modeling completed under this task can be determined through discussions with the Project Team and the professional recommendations of the consultant. The scale of analysis will be the operational landscape unit that includes the Canal; however, the priority area for more detailed analysis is the most vulnerable and densely -populated area south of the canal. This task is intended to be more detailed, more technical, and more focused on engagement with public agencies. Materials produced do not need to be public facing. Task 131.1: Deliverables: • Deployment of additional monitoring equipment (such as surface or groundwater monitoring equipment) • Completion of necessary elevation surveys and/or geotechnical work • Report summarizing the findings from the surveys and geotechnical work. • Updated mapping of projected flooding hazards; summary of findings and recommendations for future monitoring Task B2.1: Detailed vulnerability assessment of critical community facilities For this task the consultant will gather essential information on the exposure, sensitivity, and consequence of a flooding -induced failure of critical facilities and infrastructure. This would focus on assets with the most significant risks to life and safety, such as levees, evacuation routes, water infrastructure, the community center, health facilities, emergency response facilities, underground infrastructure, and others. This work includes updating GIS data, modeling and mapping, interviews with asset owners/managers, and on -the -ground site assessments to identify critical thresholds and the potential consequences of cascading infrastructure failures. As one example, the wastewater lift station that conveys the majority of wastewater for east San Rafael is located right on the bank of the canal. Based on its ground elevation, flood waters would be expected to be several feet. However, there are substantial knowledge gaps, including the critical threshold elevations, consequences of failure, and adaptive capacity. This analytical phase would address these gaps and would explore the implications of compounding hazards (i.e., sea level rise, increasing groundwater levels, subsidence, and more intense rain events, which increase the potential for saltwater intrusion, corrosion, liquefaction, and other impacts to infrastructure). This phase will focus on working across government levels to identify the most critical near -term climate risks. This task is intended to be more focused on engagement with professional asset managers and public agencies and materials do not need to be publicly facing. Task B2.1: Deliverables: • Report summarizing the findings Task B2.2: Integrating community concerns into the vulnerability assessment of critical community facilities For this task, the project team will lead community asset mapping with Canal residents. These structured conversations led by the project team will help ensure that residents' main concerns are brought out early in the process to inform the analysis from the beginning. While there will be a discussion of climate risks there will also be a focus on the positive social and community assets that are most important to quality of life and ensuring residents feel safe, well, and connected to their community. The consultant will be responsible for reviewing the outputs of this community work and weaving the communities priorities into the vulnerability analysis and final prioritization of actions. Task B3: Prioritizing adaptation actions in concert with the community engagement Building directly on the community's expressed priorities and the findings from the vulnerability analysis, this task would rank and prioritize adaptation measures where they are most needed to ensure that infrastructure (including community infrastructure) can continue to provide essential services. Measures would be evaluated based on criteria developed collaboratively but would likely include their criticality, vulnerability, public health and safety implications, costs, and co -benefits identified. The consultant would be responsible for integrating community input shared during the community engagements. Task 133: Deliverables • Public facing: Report on the findings Task B4.1: Final community engagement All project partners, including the consultant, will be involved in hosting the final community engagements, which will focus on sharing the results and seeking the community's input on the most important adaptation actions that should be prioritized. Task B4.1 Deliverables •Public facing: A short summary in English and Spanish showing or describing how the final recommendations were changed to better reflect community priorities Task B4.2 Final Recommendations All prior project activities will feed directly into the development of the final recommendations, which will present a prioritized set of actionable adaptation actions. This will also include policy recommendations that would best address the Canal community's adaptation and resiliency priorities that are identified through this planning process. This final deliverable should speak directly to how risks that are being amplified by climate change relate to other on -going resilience stresses in the area and relate to other on -going planning initiatives such as the Priority Development Area plan for this same geography.

No representation is made that the minimum insurance requirements of this Agreement are sufficient to cover the obligations of the CONSULTANT under this Agreement. 9. CONSULTANT agrees to ensure that subcontractors, and any other party involved with the Services, who is brought onto or involved in the performance of the Services by CONSULTANT, provide the same minimum insurance coverage required of CONSULTANT, except as with respect to limits. CONSULTANT shall have subcontractors provide proof of coverage that is in conformity with the requirements of this Agreement. CONSULTANT agrees that upon request by CITY, all agreements with, and insurance compliance documents provided by, such subcontractors and others engaged in the performance of Services will be submitted to CITY for review. 10. CONSULTANT agrees to be responsible for ensuring that no contract used by any party involved in any way with the Services reserves the right to charge CITY or CONSULTANT for the cost of additional insurance coverage required by this Agreement. Any such provisions are to be deleted with reference to CITY. It is not the intent of CITY to reimburse any third party for the cost of complying with these requirements. There shall be no recourse against CITY for payment of premiums or other amounts with respect thereto. C. Deductibles and SIR's. Any deductibles or self -insured retentions in CONSULTANT's insurance policies must be declared to and approved by the CITY and shall not reduce the limits of liability. Policies containing any self -insured retention (SIR) provision shall provide or be endorsed to provide that the SIR may be satisfied by either the named insured or CITY or other additional insured party. At CITY's option, the deductibles or self -insured retentions with respect to CITY shall be reduced or eliminated to CITY's reasonable satisfaction. D. Proof of Insurance. CONSULTANT shall provide to the PROJECT MANAGER 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 copy of any insurance policy and endorsements from CONSULTANT with confidential information removed. 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 the CITY.
