A. The CITY has established a DBE goal for this Agreement of 12.0%.
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 should take all necessary and
reasonable steps for this assurance. The CONSULTANT shall not
discriminate on the basis of race, color, national origin, or sex in the award
and performance of subcontracts.

institutions owned and controlled by DBEs.
D. It is the CONSULTANT's responsibility to be fully informed regarding the
requirements of 49 CFR, Part 26, and the Department of Transportation's
DBE program developed pursuant to the regulations. Particular 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.
3. 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:
a. The proposer is a DBE and will meet the goal by
performing work with its own forces.
b. The proposer will meet the goal through work performed by
DBE subcontractors, suppliers or trucking companies.
4
c. The proposer, prior to proposing, made adequate good
faith efforts to meet the goal.
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. CONSULTANT shall adhere to the following regarding subcontracts:
1. Nothing contained in this Agreement or otherwise, shall create any
contractual relation between the CITY and any subcontractor, and
no subcontract shall relieve the CONSULTANT of his/her
responsibilities and obligations hereunder. The CONSULTANT
agrees to be as fully responsible to the CITY for the acts and
omissions of its subcontractors 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 subcontractors is an
independent obligation from the CITY's obligation to make
payments to the CONSULTANT.
2. 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 subcontractors.
3. CONSULTANT shall pay its subcontractors within ten (10)
calendar days from receipt of each payment made to the
CONSULTANT by the CITY.
5
4. Any substitution of subcontractors must be approved in writing by
the CITY's PROJECT MANAGER in advance of assigning work to
a substitute subconsultant.
F. The following shall pertain to the performance of DBE consultants and
other DBE Subcontractors/Suppliers:
1. 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.
3. 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:
1. No retainage will be held by the CITY from progress payments
due the prime contractor. Any retainage held by the prime
contractor or subcontractors from progress payments due
subcontractors shall be promptly paid in full to subcontractors
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 CITY's prior written approval. Any
violation of this provision shall subject the violating prime
contractor 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,
6
otherwise available to the prime contractor or subconsultant in the
event of a dispute involving late payment or nonpayment by the
prime contractor, deficient subconsultant performance, or
noncompliance by a subconsultant. This provision applies to both
DBE and non-DBE prime contractor and subcontractors.
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:
1. 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 PROJECT 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 PROJECT 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 CITY's PROJECT MANAGER within 30 days

bound to CONSULTANT and CITY in the same manner and to the same
extent as CONSULTANT is bound to CITY under this Agreement. All
subcontractors shall provide insurance with a blanket additional insured
endorsement or coverage at least as broad as ISO form CB 20 38 04 13, and
CONSULTANT shall provide a copy of such endorsement of policy provision
to CITY.
E. Proof of Insurance. CONSULTANT shall provide to the CITY's PROJECT
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
12
to obtain a full certified copy of any insurance policy and endorsements from
CONSULTANT. 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 CITY Contract Manager and the CITY's City Attorney.
17. INDEMNIFICATION.
A. Except as otherwise provided in Subparagraph B below, CONSULTANT
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
CONSULTANT'S performance of its obligations or conduct of its operations
under this Agreement. The CONSULTANT'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 CONSULTANT's indemnification obligation shall be
reduced in proportion to the CITY lndemnitees' share of liability for the
active negligence or willful misconduct. In addition, the acceptance or
approval of the CONSULTANT's work or work product by the CITY or any
of its directors, officers or employees shall not relieve or reduce the
CONSULTANT's indemnification obligations. In the event the CITY
Indemnitees are made a party to any action, lawsuit, or other adversarial
proceeding arising from CONSULTANT'S performance of or operations
under this Agreement, CONSULTANT 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 CONSULTANT 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, CONSULTANT
shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, indemnify, release, defend and
hold harmless CITY, its officers, and employees, against any claim,
demand, suit, judgment, loss, liability or expense of any kind, including
attorney's fees, that arises out of, pertains to, or relates to the negligence,
recklessness, or willful misconduct of CONSULTANT in the performance of
its duties and obligations under this Agreement.
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.

complete the plans, specifications and estimate, the CONSULTANT may
request review by the CITY COUNCIL of unresolved claims or disputes,

will excuse the CONSULTANT from full and timely performance in
accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

estimate in Word 2010 will be provided. All electronic files of all deliverables will be
delivered in PDF format.
TASK 7— ENVIRONMENTAL COMPLIANCE AND PERMITTING
NEPA/Caltrans Assumptions
The City will prepare the Caltrans Preliminary Environmental Studies (PES) Form (and
supporting information) for submittal to Caltrans. The City can then schedule the Field Review.
The PES Form will be used by Caltrans to determine the environmental studies required for
the project. Because the Field Review has not yet been conducted, the following Scope of
Work describes the studies that Siegfried believes could ultimately be required by Caltrans,
based on our recent experience. Should any of the studies not be required, this scope will be
narrowed. This scope includes time for project management and coordination with City staff
and Caltrans on the PES Form and Field Review. Siegfried will invoice on a time and
materials basis only for actual work completed.
It is also assumed that a Categorical Exclusion (Cat Ex) is the appropriate document for the
project under NEPA. Siegfried will coordinate the preparation of all the necessary technical
reports/memos required for the Cat Ex, as described below. The cost estimate includes one
revision to each report. Once the reports are approved, Caltrans will compile them into one
document that becomes the NEPA Cat Ex.
Report Preparation and Caltrans Coordination
Based on the Field Review, project plans, and any previously completed studies, Siegfried will
prepare technical reports per City standards and Caltrans' Standard Environmental Review
(SER) formats for such reports. Siegfried will submit the reports to Caltrans as they are
prepared. Below is a discussion of all reports/ memos we expect Caltrans to require:
Water Quality Study
Siegfried will prepare a Water Quality Study (Memo) according to the requirements of
Caltrans. The memorandum will focus on the measures and best management practices
(BMPs) included in the project to reduce water quality impacts, based upon information
provided to Siegfried by the Project Team. The memorandum will also describe how the
project will comply with the latest regulations designed to prevent or reduce water quality
impacts.

Biological Resources Technical Memo
Siegfried will prepare a Biological Resources Technical Memo, which will describe the lack of
known biological resources in San Rafael Canal. The memo will also evaluate any impacts to
trees and the project's consistency with the Migratory Bird Treaty Act, and will identify
mitigation measures, if needed.
Community Impact Memo
Siegfried will prepare a Community Impact Memo to address right-of-way take and planned
road closures/detours during construction.
Section 106 Compliance(Cultural Resources)
Because the project would include sub-surface excavation, it is anticipated that the completion
of the Section 106 (Historic Preservation Act) process will be required. This process will be
completed by Archaeological/Historical Consultants, as a subconsultant to Siegfried, per
Caltrans requirements. It should be noted that the scope below does not include any
mechanical testing. If required, this process can be added to this scope as an additional work
item. The Section 106 process will include the following tasks and incorporate the results of
previously completed analyses in the project area, to the extent feasible:
• An archaeological Area of Potential Effect(APE) map will be prepared by the City for use
by Archaeological/Historical Consultants in the preparation of cultural resources reports.
The APE map will be submitted to Caltrans for approval and signature.
• A records search will be conducted at the Northwest Information Center of the California
Historical Resources Information System (NWIC) by Archaeological/Historical Consultants
of all cultural resources and studies within one-quarter mile of the APE and any additional
resources or investigations that might be applicable. This will include archival research
and review of maps and literature on file. Existing information will be used to the extent
possible.
• Native American consultation will be conducted with representatives from the Graton
Rancheria.
• An archaeological survey and land use history research will be conducted for 711 and 375
Grand Avenue.
• An Archaeological Survey Report(ASR) and Historic Properties Survey Report(HPSR)
will be prepared based on Caltrans guidelines and consultation with their Professionally
Qualified Staff(PQS). The ASR will include a summary of the records search results,
Native American consultation, and the field survey. Although it is not anticipated that any
structures will be affected by the project, an HPSR will be required per Caltrans
