This project may utilize the Owner’s Procore (www.procore.com) online project management and document control platform. The intent of utilizing Procore is to reduce cost and schedule risk, improve quality and safety, and maintain a healthy team dynamic by improving information flow, reducing non-productive activities, reducing rework and decreasing turnaround times. The Contractor is required to create a free web-based Procore user account(s) and utilize web-based training / tutorials (as needed) to become familiar with the system. Unless the Engineer approves otherwise, the Contractor shall process all project documents through Procore because this platform will be used to submit, track, distribute and collaborate on project. If unfamiliar or not otherwise trained with Procore, Contractor and applicable team members shall complete a free training certification course located at http://learn.procore.com/procore-certification- subcontractor. The Contractor is responsible for attaining their own Procore support, as needed, either through the online training or reaching out to the Procore support team. It will be the responsibility of the Contractor to regularly check Procore and review updated documents as they are added. There will be no cost to the Contractor for use of Procore. It is recommended that the Contractor provide mobile access for Windows, iOS located at https://apps.apple.com/us/app/procore-construction-management/id374930542 or Android devices located at https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.procore.activities with the Procore App installed to at least one on-site individual to provide real-time access to current posted drawings, specifications, RFIs, submittals, schedules, change orders, project documents, as well as any deficient observations or punch list items. Providing mobile access will improve communication, efficiency, and productivity for all parties. The use of Procore for project management does not relieve the contractor of any other requirements as may be specified in the contract documents. 7.STATUS OF CONTRACTOR Contractor will perform the Services in Contractor's own way as an independent contractor and in pursuit of Contractor's independent calling, and not as an employee of City. Contractor will be under control of City only as to the result to be accomplished, but will consult with City as necessary. The persons used by Contractor to provide services under this Agreement will not be considered employees of City for any purposes. The payment made to Contractor pursuant to the Agreement will be the full and complete compensation to which Contractor is entitled. City will not make any federal or state tax withholdings on behalf of Contractor or its agents, employees or subcontractors. City will not be required to pay any workers' compensation insurance or unemployment contributions on behalf of Contractor or its employees or subcontractors. Contractor agrees to indemnify City within thirty (30) days for any tax, retirement contribution, social security, overtime payment, unemployment payment or workers' compensation payment which City may be required to make on behalf of Contractor or any agent, employee, or subcontractor of Contractor for work done under this Agreement. At the City’s election, City may deduct the indemnification amount from any balance owing to Contractor. 8.SUBCONTRACTING Contractor will not subcontract any portion of the Services without prior written approval of City. If Contractor subcontracts any of the Services, Contractor will be fully responsible to City for the acts and omissions of Contractor's subcontractor and of the persons either directly or indirectly employed by the subcontractor, as Contractor is for the acts and omissions of persons directly employed by Contractor.

Contractor will maintain the types of coverages and minimum limits indicated below, unless Risk Manager or City Manager approves a lower amount. These minimum amounts of coverage will not constitute any limitations or cap on Contractor's indemnification obligations under this Agreement. City, its officers, agents and employees make no representation that the limits of the insurance specified to be carried by Contractor pursuant to this Agreement are adequate to protect Contractor. If Contractor believes that any required insurance coverage is inadequate, Contractor will obtain such additional insurance coverage, as Contractor deems adequate, at Contractor's sole expense.

Cover Letter November 19, 2024 Graham Jordan Contract Administrator City of Carlsbad 1635 Faraday Avenue Carlsbad, California 92008 Subject: Proposal for ADA Beach Access Ramps North of Pine Avenue and at Tamarack State Beach (RFP24-3461TRAN) Dudek understands that the City of Carlsbad (City) requires experienced consultants to develop professional services for the construction of new American with Disabilities Act (ADA) compliant ramps and other site accessibility improvements at two beach access locations: Pine Avenue and Tamarack Avenue. Our proven track record of completing similar projects demonstrates that we have the experience, local knowledge, and technical expertise necessary to complete this project. We offer a deep array of engineering, coastal planning, permitting, environmental, and other technical capabilities as well as a holistic, inclusive, and resilient approach. As local beach- going residents with loved ones with disabilities, we also have a vested interest in this project’s success. The Dudek Team provides the City with several distinct advantages: Proven History with the City and Local Project Management Team. Dudek as a firm has supported the City on a variety of complex and high-profile engineering and environmental projects for the past 21 years. Recent projects include the Park Drive Slope and Drainage Improvement, Merwin Drive Storm Drain Improvement, and Ponto Sewer Manhole Rehabilitation. Headquartered in Encinitas, our locally based project management team will leverage lessons learned from these projects and our intimate understanding of City processes to design and permit the proposed ADA beach access ramps to reflect the City’s priorities and the community’s values. We will hit the ground running and work collaboratively with City staff every step of the way. Relevant ADA and Coastal Structure Experience. As trusted experts in the region, Dudek staff have successfully completed a variety of coastal engineering projects throughout California, specifically for the design of ADA accessibility and beach access structures. The Dudek Team’s engineers combine a broad understanding of coastal processes and advanced technical engineering capabilities to design structures that are resilient in the face of coastal hazards and sea level rise. Our engineering team is composed of experienced senior- and principal-level engineers, with multiple layers of quality assurance and quality control to ensure safety and success. Patrick Miskel, PE, will lead the team as project manager and lead coastal engineer. Mr. Miskel will be supported by Principal-in-Charge Charles Greely, PE, LEED AP, QSD, a principal engineer with 26 years’ experience in project management and large-scale structural engineering projects. Mr. Miskel and Mr. Greely will draw from their extensive ADA accessibility experience to lead the ADA design to ensure all ADA components and intricacies can be directly conveyed by the first mode of contact for the City and other involved parties.

Our team has past project experience working together, making it easy for us to collaborate on this multidisciplinary project. Relationships with California Coastal Commission and California State Parks Staff. Our scientists and planners have established strong working relationships with regulatory agency staff, which is vital for keeping projects moving forward and obtaining final approvals. Specifically, our team includes multiple former California Coastal Commission (CCC) staff, including from the San Diego Coast District office, who have in-depth knowledge of all aspects of California coastal laws, regulations, procedures, and policy interpretation. Dudek coastal planners know how to coordinate with CCC staff early and often throughout projects, prepare complete permit applications, anticipate issues, and successfully navigate conflict before the public hearing, which keeps projects within budget and on schedule. Additionally, as former CCC staff, Dudek coastal planners have coordinated with California State Parks staff on similar beach access projects, such as Beacon’s Beach Access and Cardiff State Beach Living Shoreline Projects; therefore, they have direct experience balancing multiple objectives and regulatory requirements. We are excited by the opportunity to work with the City of Carlsbad on this important project. The new beach access structures and site improvements will provide residents and visitors with their waterfront of the future that can be enjoyed by all, underscoring the City’s commitment to fostering an accessible and welcoming environment.

Executive Summary The area of Carlsbad was once home to the Luiseños and Kumeyaay native people who inhabited the area in harmony with the coastal environment. Today, the City of Carlsbad acts as stewards of the land in both protecting the environment and promoting the well-being of residence and visitors. Following this principle, the City is undertaking this project to enrich the daily experience of pedestrians by improving coastal accessibility. Dudek is teaming with engineering firms GeoEngineers and Reid Middleton to complete this project and achieve the City’s goals to build a modern state-of-the-art waterfront. This proposal presents our project team’s staff expertise and project experience, a detailed summary of our project approach and work plan, and a schedule, budget, and other related addenda.

Consultant Experience Firm Qualifications Dudek is staffed by more than 800 engineers, planners, scientists, outreach specialists, landscape architects, and support staff. We assist local governments, agencies, nonprofits, and developers on a broad range of projects that improve our clients’ communities, infrastructure, and natural environment. Since its inception, Dudek has been performing engineering services and environmental permitting for clients throughout San Diego County, including the City of Carlsbad. Our headquarters in Encinitas is down the road from the project sites and City office, which will bring unique local knowledge, easy access to the sites, and the convenience of face-to-face meetings for seamless collaboration. Firm Expertise Successful execution of waterfront engineering projects is a formidable challenge given the intricate interplay of natural forces that shape shorelines, and the importance of public access to the coast. To address these complexities and ensure project success we’ve assembled a specialized core team with expertise in structural, geotechnical, and coastal engineering, ADA accessibility, environmental documentation and coastal permitting, architectural history, public outreach, and other services. STRUCTURAL ENGINEERING Structural engineering will play an essential role in the project design of the ADA ramps, retaining walls, and beach access staircases. Therefore, the Dudek Team will apply our principal knowledge of physics, mechanics, and materials properties to design structures that have the strength and durability to withstand the harsh coastal environment. Our teaming partner Reid Middleton, a structural engineering firm specializing in commercial waterfront pile-supported structures, has been assisting cities, ports, and other public agencies in repair, rehabilitation, and expansions to marine infrastructure for over 70 years. GEOTECHNICAL ENGINEERING Geotechnical engineering is vitally important in the design of both pile- supported and slab-on-grade foundation systems because it’s required to assess subsurface soil conditions that provide foundational support. Dudek has teamed with GeoEngineers for geotechnical engineering services due to our firms’ close working relationship and GeoEngineers’ proven track record of successful project completion of coastal projects in the San Diego region. The geotechnical engineering team will develop seismic design parameters as well as all soil and foundation-related variables, including pile embedment depth, lateral pile capacity, friction factors, and others. STRUCTURAL ENGINEERING COMPONENTS ▪ Concrete, Timber, and Steel Engineering Materials ▪ Seismic Analysis ▪ Pile-Supported Platform Design ▪ Retaining Wall Design ▪ Elevated Ramp Analysis ▪ Corrosion-Resistant Materials Docusign Envelope ID: 2F0B5F07-88B0-43CD-A60C-A4FD3BE63060 Dec. 3, 2024 Item #9 Page 25 of 98 ADA Beach Access Ramps North of Pine Avenue and at Tamarack State Beach 5 GeoEngineers’ staff also includes geologists who will provide insight to coastal bluff conditions, such as potential for erosion or liquefaction. COASTAL ENGINEERING Assessing the project site and components from a coastal engineering perspective is critical for ensuring safety from coastal hazards such as waves, sea level rise (SLR), and erosion. Our coastal engineers combine a broad understanding of coastal processes and advanced technical engineering capabilities to ensure that coastal projects are resilient, mitigate damage from wave runup, overtopping, and bluff erosion, and safeguard communities, critical infrastructure, and ecological resources. ADA ACCESSIBILITY Accessibility improvements require an all-encompassing vision of how to safely and simply provide access from start to finish of an accessible path of travel, beginning at the street and leading to viewing platforms, restrooms, and accessible parking stalls. Dudek provides this vision as well as the high level of precision and careful consideration of each detail down to the fraction of inches for ramp slopes and handrail diameters. Dudek’s mission extends beyond our projects as we have an active Employee Resource Group (ERG)—the Disabilities and Accessibility Alliance—with a mission to create a more equitable and inclusive environment for Dudek employees by advocating for accommodations and resources for individuals with disabilities. ENVIRONMENTAL DOCUMENTATION AND COASTAL PERMITTING Dudek has one of California’s largest, most experienced teams for CEQA and National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) document preparation for over 30 years. Combining comprehensive analysis and evidence-based findings, we provide legally defensible documents that are supported by substantial evidence, none of which have ever been successfully overturned in court. For over 15 years our specialized coastal practice has effectively led clients through California Coastal Commission (CCC) planning and permitting processes. We have successfully prepared and processed hundreds of coastal development permit (CDP) and local coastal program (LCP) projects for both public- and private-sector applicants throughout the state. As former CCC staff, Dudek coastal planners have an in-depth understanding of all aspects of California coastal laws, regulations, procedures, and policy interpretation. With this understanding, we can anticipate key coastal resource issues and leverage our positive working relationships with local CCC staff to facilitate coordination and issue resolution, thereby streamlining the CCC review process for this project. ARCHITECTURAL HISTORY The Tamarack Avenue Comfort Station was found eligible for the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP) and therefore qualifies as a historical resource for purposes of CEQA. Dudek’s Historic Built Environment Team is staffed by dedicated, experienced architectural historians and historic preservation experts. We specialize in historic resource surveys and significance evaluations in consideration of the NRHP, California Register of Historical Resources (CRHR), and local-level evaluation criteria and integrity requirements. In terms of key staff assigned to this contract, conducting impacts analyses and Secretary of the Interior’s Standards project reviews are areas of specialty for our team.

Project Approach/Work Plan Project Understanding The City of Carlsbad’s iconic sandy beaches fronting coastal cliffs combine with its mild climate to attract a diversity of beachgoers year-round. As guardians of this valuable public resource, the City has committed to equitable enjoyment of its coastal resources and has now committed to act upon this mission by enhancing beach accessibility for individuals with disabilities. This project includes installing beach ADA-access ramps and completing other site improvements that will increase accessibility and enhance the enjoyment of the built environment. To attain this result, an all-encompassing design approach will be taken to develop project components that will best enhance lived experiences at the City’s coastline while preserving the natural environment to the greatest extent possible. Through these efforts, the Dudek Team will work with the City to uphold ADA and CCC principles and pave the way for fostering a more inclusive society. Value Engineering Our multidisciplinary project team, in collaboration with the City, will apply value engineering analyses at each milestone throughout the design process to ensure that costs are minimized where possible without sacrificing quality, functionality, or performance. Innovation in Design and Construction Approach Dudek and our subconsultants are widely recognized as industry leaders in our fields, and we pride ourselves on staying on top of the latest in design and construction innovations. Some example innovative options include, but are not limited to, the following: ▪ UAV Orth-Imagery Surveying: The City can significantly benefit from UAV-derived ortho-imagery for monitoring the construction of the new ADA beach access locations. Utilizing geo-referenced orthomosaic images, the City can ensure precise, up-to-date visual data for assessing construction progress and compliance. Regular flights conducted bi-weekly, monthly, or at intervals specified by the City, enable timely detection of issues, facilitate better project management, and enhance communication among stakeholders, ultimately ensuring that the projects stay on schedule. ▪ Construction Materials, Fiber Reinforced Plastic Decking: Fiber Reinforced Plastic Decking (FRP) or concrete decking are recommended for the ADA ramp material instead of the wood described in the RFP. Wood is not highly durable in marine environments, and it is highly important that the surface of ADA paths is smooth and even without any damage that someone could trip on or that would make it difficult to roll a wheelchair over. Unlike traditional materials such as wood, steel, or concrete, FRP decking is impervious to the deleterious effects of saltwater, preventing issues such as rust, rot, and decay. This resistance to moisture and chemical attack ensures a longer lifespan and reduces maintenance costs. FRP decking can also include a non-slip surface that is much safer for ADA access and other pedestrians, making a safer option. ▪ Construction Materials, Stamped Concrete and Retaining Wall Surfacing: Where concrete is used in areas highly visible to the public, stamped or texturized concrete may be applied. This would make any concrete structures more visually appealing and enjoyable to the public and a small additional cost. Similar to stamping concrete, a variety of retaining wall surface alternatives will be presented to the City and/or Docusign Envelope ID: 2F0B5F07-88B0-43CD-A60C-A4FD3BE63060 Dec. 3, 2024 Item #9 Page 34 of 98 ADA Beach Access Ramps North of Pine Avenue and at Tamarack State Beach 14 public to choose from what would be most appealing instead of the standard industrial looking surface. Options include a living wall, stamped concrete, natural stone, veneer stone, brick, and others. ▪ Beach ADA-Accessible Mat: ADA accessibility to coastal sites has historically ended at the landward edge of the beach because there are not many options for providing access onto the sand without negatively impacting the environment. ADA-accessible mats, such as Mobi-mats, are a nonharmful solution where prefabricated mats are laid on top of the sand such that wheelchairs can easily roll onto them onto the beach and the mats do not permanently impact the environment. ▪ Artificial Intelligence in Graphic Design: Artificial Intelligence is revolutionizing the field of graphic illustration by enhancing creativity, efficiency, and precision in project workflows. Through the use of sophisticated algorithms and machine learning models, AI can quickly generate conceptual high-quality illustrations and assist artists in visualizing concepts with minimal effort. Project Element Scope Details Project Element 1: Project Management Effective project management is critical to project success. As a medium-sized firm, we provide the personal service of project managers combined with the breadth and depth of technical capabilities characteristic of larger firms to meet the City’s project requirements. Our project managers are empowered to be problem solvers with the ability to make decisions in a timely fashion to maintain project momentum.

The investigations completed under this project element differ from Project Element 3 in that the investigations performed under this element are not specific engineering investigations aimed at collecting engineering data for design. Under this project element, the Dudek team will accomplish the following: ▪ Review existing improvement plans and revise per staff’s recommendations with consideration for limits of construction for environmental and stormwater requirements ▪ Evaluate recent practices for providing enhancements that benefit all modes of travel ▪ Limit impervious surfaces to not exceed thresholds requiring substantial changes in design as required to meet stormwater regulations as outlined in Volume 5 of the City of Carlsbad BMP Design Manual ▪ Consider the existing landscaped areas and common areas for enhancement and modifications, including low-impact-development and utilizing green street exemptions for ground water recharge ▪ Evaluate existing conditions that can be improved when implementing this project and current operations at the park, school, and residential neighborhoods Under this task, project team members with critical central roles dependent upon a close familiarity with project site conditions and physical details will visit the sites to assess conditions and discuss the project plan with involved parties. For example, Dudek’s qualified historic preservation specialists will conduct literature review and research to accurately characterize the character-defining features and setting of the Tamarack Avenue Comfort Station. The information gathered as part of this task will inform the historic resources-related tasks completed during Project Element 3 (Engineering Services), which includes historic preservation input to the design team, and Project Element 4 (Permitting and Environmental Processing Services), which includes preparation of the required Historical Resources Technical Report (HRTR). Project Element 3: Engineering Services Dudek and our teaming partners GeoEngineers and Reid Middleton will provide engineering services, as described in the following subtasks. Task 3.1 Existing Conditions Review The first step in engineering design of the project components is to develop a full set of accurate and relevant engineering data and a thorough understanding of existing site conditions. This process involves a detailed assessment of the physical environment, including topography, soil composition, existing structures, utilities, and environmental factors to help identify data gaps, assess feasibility, and develop an engineering design plan. By thoroughly evaluating existing conditions, engineers can develop informed strategies, mitigate risks, and ensure that the project integrates seamlessly with the current environment, ultimately leading to more efficient and successful project outcomes. Existing conditions data resources reviewed will include construction documents for the existing site, technical reports, maps, topographic surveys, the City’s General Plan, and geographic information system (GIS) inventory/database, and any other relevant resource. Assumptions: ▪ City staff will provide all relevant record data in their possession for all eight project locations. This includes as-built drawings, permits, specifications, etc. These documents will be provided to Dudek without us needing to make additional public information requests to the City or navigate archives. Docusign Envelope ID: 2F0B5F07-88B0-43CD-A60C-A4FD3BE63060 Dec. 3, 2024 Item #9 Page 36 of 98 DUDEK ADA Beach Access Ramps North of Pine Avenue and at Tamarack State Beach 16 Task 3.2 Drainage Study The Dudek team will review the existing documents and prepare a drainage study to determine and quantify existing and proposed stormwater runoff flow rates and analyze and evaluate the capacity of the existing and proposed storm drain infrastructure. The analysis will be based on the County of San Diego hydrology and hydraulic design manuals as well as City standards and the project design will be evaluated and designed for the 100-year, 6-hour storm event. It is assumed the modified rational method will be used to calculate the existing and proposed condition flow rates. The drainage design will use existing drainage infrastructure where feasible and will include outlet protection analysis to minimize impacts to the beach. The study will be updated as needed for each design submittal. Task 3.3 Historic Preservation Project Review and Design Team Input The Tamarack Avenue Comfort Station located west of the intersection at Carlsbad Boulevard and Tamarack Avenue was found eligible for the NRHP and therefore qualifies as a historical resource for purposes of CEQA. Drawing on information gathered through the Investigations phase (Project Element 2), the consultant team’s qualified historic preservation specialists will coordinate with the design team and review project plans early in the process to recommend strategies for the proactive avoidance of potential impacts to the setting of the historical resource. This project review will be documented in a due-diligence HRTR, which is described in Project Element 4, Permitting and Environmental Processing Services. As part of early design process, historic preservation project input will focus on recommending strategies to facilitate project compliance with the Secretary of the Interior’s Standards for the Treatment of Historic Properties (Secretary’s Standards). According to CEQA Guidelines Section 15064.5(b)(3), projects that comply with the Secretary’s Standards are generally considered mitigated to a level of less than significant. This scope of work does not include a re-evaluation of the property; previous documentation will be utilized to characterize the historical resource and its character-defining features. Task 3.4 Surveying Services Dudek will perform traditional topographic surveys and terrestrial scanning to support civil design and development efforts. Traditional topographic surveys utilize ground-based surveying techniques, including the use of total stations, GNSS receivers, and leveling instruments to accurately measure and record the elevations and positions of various site features. This method ensures a high degree of accuracy and detail, capturing essential topographic data that will inform civil engineering designs and construction plans. Dudek will establish horizontal and vertical control in accordance with the City of Carlsbad Survey Control Network. All survey data collected will maintain a horizontal and vertical accuracy of 0.02 feet or better. All data will be post-processed using Trimble, Carlson, and Civil 3D software. The final deliverables will include a Civil 3D drawing featuring field survey points, 3D breaklines, a Civil 3D surface, and data derived from the 3D scanner. All survey work for this scope will be in conformance with the California Land Surveyors Act and City of Carlsbad standards. Dudek will utilize NAD ’83 for horizontal and NGVD ’29 for the vertical datum. Deliverables: ▪ Data from one pre-construction survey ▪ Data from one post-construction survey Assumptions: ▪ The post-construction survey may reveal that slopes and grades deferred from the project plans as a result of contractor error, and therefore site components may not be ADA-accessible. Any contractor errors revealed by the post-construction survey are not the responsibility of the Dudek team. Docusign Envelope ID: 2F0B5F07-88B0-43CD-A60C-A4FD3BE63060 Dec. 3, 2024 Item #9 Page 37 of 98 DUDEK ADA Beach Access Ramps North of Pine Avenue and at Tamarack State Beach 17 Task 3.5 Utility Coordination and Relocation The Dudek team will utilize CivilGrid software to conduct our utility research. CivilGrid software will be used to streamline and enhance the planning and design processes by aggregating the site utility data in a single geospatial data form at a low cost. Any necessary utility relocation will be coordinated with the relevant agencies (e.g., San Diego Gas and Electric, AT&T, Spectrum, Crowncastle, etc.) to avoid conflicts for proposed improvements. Task 3.6 California Coastal Commission and State Parks Coordination We understand that CCC and California State Parks (State Parks) will be key decision makers in the approval and implementation of this project. Early coordination with CCC staff is important to discuss the appropriate permitting strategy and the consistency of the proposed designs with applicable California Coastal Act (CCA) and Local Coastal Program (LCP) policies. The City has a certified LCP, granting the City authority to issue CDPs within its jurisdiction, with the certified LCP as the standard of review. The RFP states that the Pine Avenue location is in the City’s CDP jurisdiction and the CCC CDP appeal jurisdiction. Therefore, the City could issue the CDP for the Pine Avenue location, but it could be appealed to the CCC. Conversely, the Tamarack Avenue location is in the CCC CDP jurisdiction; therefore, CCC would issue the CDP for this location with the policies of Chapter 3 of the CCA as the standard of review. Both locations are owned and managed by State Parks. As such, State Parks will need to be a co-applicant with the City in the CDP process. The appropriate permitting pathway would be one topic for early coordination because the project spans two jurisdictions. It is our understanding that the City seeks to issue the appealable CDP for the Pine Avenue location and apply for a CDP from CCC for the Tamarack Avenue location (January 20, 2020, City Response to CCC Comments). This approach upholds the City’s local authority over the Pine Avenue location. The alternative approach would be the City pursuing a consolidated CDP from CCC for the entire project (proposed ADA ramps at both locations)1. Based on our experience, this consolidated CDP option is typically preferred by CCC because it is a more holistic, efficient approach. However, we understand the City’s intent to process the CDP at the Pine Avenue location, as decisions made at the local level ensure that approvals are made by the people who know the City best, and City-issued CDPs often benefit from a more streamlined permitting process. We will support the City in discussions with CCC regarding its preferred permitting strategy so that CDP submittals at both locations are synchronized as much as possible. Dudek coastal planners will then review project information, including any available correspondence between CCC, State Parks, and the City, and other relevant documents to evaluate the project’s consistency with applicable CCA/LCP policies to identify potential issues. Coordination prior to preparation and submittal of the formal CDP application package will ensure a more complete application and minimize the additional requests during the CDP application review process (Task 4.2). It also reduces the risk of CCC appeal of the Pine Avenue location. Based on this evaluation, Dudek coastal planners will prepare for and attend up to three meetings with City, CCC, and State Parks staff to discuss the proposed design and proactively solve any issues related to the following: ▪ Public access: The provision of public access to the coast is one of the main CCA tenets. Constructing new ADA ramps to increase accessibility for all members of the public is consistent with this goal. However, consideration of the construction schedule, staging, and signage will be necessary to minimize temporary public access impacts, e.g., maintaining access during the peak use summer period, staging in developed areas off the beach, etc. Coordination with State Parks will also be needed to address impacts to adjacent public amenities. 1 Section 30601.3 of the CCA authorizes CCC to process a consolidated CDP application, when requested by the local government and approved by the Executive Director of CCC, for projects that straddle jurisdictions of the CCC and the local government. Docusign Envelope ID: 2F0B5F07-88B0-43CD-A60C-A4FD3BE63060 Dec. 3, 2024 Item #9 Page 38 of 98 DUDEK ADA Beach Access Ramps North of Pine Avenue and at Tamarack State Beach 18 ▪ Geologic stability: There is always a risk involved with work on coastal bluffs. The Dudek team will demonstrate how the design minimizes these risks and assures stability and structural integrity. ▪ Coastal hazards: Both project sites are in a coastal zone susceptible to coastal hazards, such as erosion, wave runup, and SLR. In particular, the proposed ADA access ramp north of Pine Avenue is located just north of the existing beach pathway and seawall, and the U.S. Geological Service Coastal Storm Modeling System indicates that this location may be vulnerable to storm damage around mid-century because the end of the walkway ramp is at grade and not protected. To ensure CCA and LCP consistency, the proposed project will need to consider a range of coastal hazard scenarios, and any shoreline protection associated with the proposed project will need to be consistent with the latest SLR guidance. The Dudek team has the full in-house coastal engineering capabilities to complete this analysis. Our positive working relationship with CCC staff will facilitate discussion regarding policy interpretations and any additional data/information requests needed to avoid appeal of the City CDP and delays of the CCC CDP. To engage CCC staff, these discussions could occur as part of the City and CCC’s monthly coordination meetings. As appropriate, and based on CCC and State Parks staff feedback, Dudek coastal planners will assist the City in making project modifications to demonstrate the project’s consistency with coastal resource protection policies. Deliverables: ▪ Attendance at up to three meetings with City/CCC/State Parks staff, including one in-person and two via conference call ▪ Development of meeting materials for up three meetings, including agenda, presentation, and summary with action items/next steps Task 3.7 Geotechnical Exploration and Reporting GeoEngineers will perform geotechnical exploration and reporting. The geotechnical investigation and engineering services will consist of an optional subsurface investigation program, a geologic hazard analysis, the development of seismic design criteria, recommendations for the site, and the preparation of a draft and final geotechnical report summarizing our findings and conclusions. The GeoEngineers scope of work includes the following: 1. Perform a review of readily available plans and reports, including the geotechnical investigation report provided by the City as part of the project award as referenced in RFP Project Element 3.7. 2. Perform a geologic site reconnaissance to characterize the site conditions. Assume one day visit, including four hours on site, two hours of transportation, and two hours of documentation. Geotechnical Investigation (Conditional) Under the condition where the geotechnical information provided by the City is insufficient for the geotechnical engineering design of the improvements, we propose to perform a geotechnical investigation to characterize subsurface conditions, described as follows: 1. Provide exploration coordination with the subcontractors prior to the commencement of the field exploration program, including USA DigAlert and a third-party utility mark out. Acquire the necessary permit from the County of San Diego Department of Environmental Health (DEH) Monitoring Well Program prior to the commencement of fieldwork. 2. Explore subsurface conditions by advancing up to two hollow stem auger borings, including one boring (B- 1) in the vicinity of the North of Pine Avenue access ramp location, and another boring (B-2) in the vicinity of the Tamarack State Beach access ramp location. The borings will be advanced to depths of approximately 50 feet below the ground surface (bgs). Preliminarily, we anticipate that B-1 may be performed within the existing parking lot at the northern improvement location, and B-2 may be Docusign Envelope ID: 2F0B5F07-88B0-43CD-A60C-A4FD3BE63060 Dec. 3, 2024 Item #9 Page 39 of 98 DUDEK ADA Beach Access Ramps North of Pine Avenue and at Tamarack State Beach 19 performed within the grass landscaping west of Carlsbad Avenue, to the northeast of the comfort building. The asphalt concrete at location B-1 will be patched at the ground surface. Care will be taken to minimize disturbance to the grass at location B-2. The drilling will generate soil drill cuttings (investigation-derived waste) which will be drummed and temporarily stored on-site pending characterization and subsequent off-site disposal at an appropriate regulatory facility. The borings will be backfilled, in accordance with the County of San Diego DEH requirements. 3. If requested by the project team, we can perform up to four percolation tests in shallow boreholes (at a maximum depth of 5 feet bgs). The percolation test holes will be advanced using a drill rig. The percolation test sites will be located based on input regarding the layout of proposed stormwater BMPs, if considered as part of the improvements. Our percolation testing will be performed in accordance with the City of Carlsbad BMP Design Manual (January 2024). 4. Submit a soil sample of the investigation-derived waste for laboratory chemical analysis for the following analytes on standard turnaround time: Total Petroleum Hydrocarbons, Volatile Organic Compounds, and Title 22 Metals. 5. Complete laboratory testing of select soil samples to assess pertinent physical and engineering characteristics of the soils encountered within the borings during our investigation. We anticipate the laboratory testing program will include moisture content/dry density, Expansion Index, strength (including direct shear), Atterberg Limits, percent passing the U.S. No. 200 sieve, R-Value, soil pH, resistivity, soluble sulfate, and chloride analysis testing. Task 3.8 Public Outreach Services Dudek understands that the City’s communications staff will lead the creation of all outreach media with assistance from the consultant team regarding content. Dudek will work directly with the City’s Communication Department on all public outreach efforts, specifically providing technical support, content review, and preparation of graphics. This support may include suggested materials such as postcard fliers, website updates, public meeting materials with residents and businesses, and social media posts that accompany promoting meetings or events. Our team can establish a template for branded website, social media posts, emails, presentations, meeting summaries, etc. so that all materials are easily identifiable and have the same look and feel. Our team will provide support for the City's anticipated number of meetings and presentations, including one public meeting for each ramp location, one presentation to the City’s Traffic Safety and Mobility Commission, and one presentation to City Council. Dudek also recommends the creation of an online survey for gathering public feedback. Deliverables: ▪ No more than five distinct postcard flier templates/styles ▪ No more than 12 discrete website updates ▪ Generation of one online survey (if requested by the City as recommended by Dudek), which can also be promoted at public meetings and a pop-up event or resident/businesses meeting, if selected ▪ Technical assistance and review of meeting materials for no more than 2 public workshops, one pop- up event or resident/businesses meeting, one public meeting for each location where a ramp is proposed (up to 5 locations), one presentation to the City’s Traffic Safety and Mobility Commission ▪ Run ADA accessibility compliance review on materials including agenda, meeting summary, PowerPoints, meeting handouts, and/or FAQ Assumptions: ▪ The City will provide one round of comments on all draft deliverables before they are finalized. Docusign Envelope ID: 2F0B5F07-88B0-43CD-A60C-A4FD3BE63060 Dec. 3, 2024 Item #9 Page 40 of 98 DUDEK ADA Beach Access Ramps North of Pine Avenue and at Tamarack State Beach 20 Task 3.9 Engineering Design Services Dudek and subconsultants GeoEngineers and Reid Middleton will provide engineering design services. Dudek will be the engineer of record responsible for the design of overall site development; GeoEngineers will be responsible for geotechnical engineering design of the pile foundation supporting the elevated ADA ramp platforms; and Reid Middleton will be responsible for structural engineering design of the ADA ramp platforms and Tamarack Avenue site retaining wall. The construction document package will include plans, special provisions, calculations, a SWPPP, and cost estimates. The Dudek team will also calculate all necessary quantity estimates needed for construction and permitting, but these estimates will not be an independent submittal. Structural design services for the Pine Avenue ADA Ramp will consist of designing the ramp structure, including foundations. For development of the 30% design submittal to the City, we propose evaluating the feasibility, durability, and cost for constructing a concrete ramp structure or an FRP ramp structure. Given the coastal site location, a structure that is resistant to corrosion is essential. The geotechnical investigation will provide some qualifying data regarding whether FRP piles are feasible or not. A system with concrete foundations and an FRP structure and deck is also a possibility. We believe it would be the best value to the City to evaluate these alternatives at the 30% design submittal for final decision on which system to select for complete design. Upon selection of the structural system to be used, our team will progress in completing the design, providing design submittals at the 60%, 90%, 100%, and Final Submittal phases as required in the RFP. No matter the structural system selected, our team will provide the structural design considering the geotechnical recommendations determined following the geotechnical investigation, resisting the corrosive coastal environment, minimizing any maintenance, and emphasizing long term public use. Autodesk Civil 3D will be used as the primary CAD software. All Civil 3D objects, including, grading, TIN surfaces, alignments, cross sections, and feature lines are part of a dynamic model. This means that when the design changes for the grading or TIN surfaces, all other design elements, including labels, automatically update. Dudek has full in-house capabilities to provide urban landscaping services if the City is interested in including this as an additional service to the scope of this proposal. * Staircase replacement is no longer within the scope of this project, per discussions following the initial proposal submittal; the staircase will be repaired/enhanced instead of fully replaced. Staircase enhancements consist of resurfacing the damaged concrete and replacing rebar where necessary, and adding a slip-free nosing to improve safety. Site Development Engineering Design Dudek will primarily perform this design work as well as internal quality control (QC). Site development engineering design includes all project design components other than the two elevated ADA ramps and their pile foundation, and the retaining wall. This work consists of sidewalk improvements including the new 8-foot wide ramp at the Tamarack Avenue site near the restroom, replacing all existing blue guardrails within the project area, changes to the riprap layout at the Pine Avenue site, staircase repairs at the Tamarack Avenue site, parking lot regrading/resurfacing/restriping and sidewalk improvements for ADA compliance at the Pine Avenue parking lot only, electrical engineering for path lighting, and planting area edging at the Tamarack Avenue site. * The ADA parking stalls at the Tamarack site will be surveyed for this project but no resurfacing, restriping, or other parking lot work will be performed at this location as part of this project. The City is completing a separate Parking Lot Improvement Project at Tamarack Avenue that may include upgrades or changes to the ADA stalls.

Structural design services for the Pine Avenue ADA Ramp will consist of designing the ramp structure, including foundations. For development of the 30% design submittal to the City, we propose evaluating the feasibility, durability, and cost for constructing a concrete ramp structure or an FRP ramp structure. Given the coastal site location, a structure that is resistant to corrosion is essential. The geotechnical investigation will provide some qualifying data regarding whether FRP piles are feasible or not. A system with concrete foundations and an FRP structure and deck is also a possibility. We believe it would be the best value to the City to evaluate these alternatives at the 30% design submittal for final decision on which system to select for complete design. Upon selection of the structural system to be used, our team will progress in completing the design, providing design submittals at the 60%, 90%, 100%, and Final Submittal phases as required in the RFP. No matter the structural system selected, our team will provide the structural design considering the geotechnical recommendations determined following the geotechnical investigation, resisting the corrosive coastal environment, minimizing any maintenance, and emphasizing long term public use. Tamarack Avenue Structural Engineering Design Ried Middleton will primarily perform this work, with Dudek performing the QC. Structural design services for the Tamarack Avenue ADA Ramp will consist of designing the ramp structure including foundations, and a concrete retaining wall from the boardwalk to the beach. For development of the 30% design submittal to the City, we propose evaluating the feasibility, durability, and cost for constructing a wood ramp structure, a concrete ramp structure, or an FRP ramp structure. The geotechnical investigation will provide some qualifying data regarding whether wood or FRP piles are feasible or not. As previously mentioned for Pine Avenue, a combined system such as concrete foundations and an FRP structure and deck is also a possibility. We believe it would be the best value to the City to evaluate these alternatives at the 30% design submittal for final decision on which system to select for complete design. Upon selection of the structural system to be used, our team will progress in completing the design, providing design submittals at the 60%, 90%, 100%, and Final Submittal phases as required in the RFP. No matter the structural system selected, our team will provide the structural design considering the geotechnical recommendations determined following the geotechnical investigation, resisting the corrosive coastal environment, minimizing any maintenance, and emphasizing long term public use. Geotechnical Engineering Design GeoEngineers will primarily perform this task, which includes the following subtasks: 1. Complete geotechnical engineering analyses and provide a draft engineering report that summarizes the findings and recommendations, including the following at a minimum: ▪ The general characterization of soil, rock, and groundwater conditions across the site ▪ Opinion as to the adequacy of the proposed development from a geotechnical engineering standpoint ▪ Recommendations for seismic design parameters ▪ Geomorphic characterization of the bluff, bluff stability, coastal bluff retreat and erodibility ▪ Recommendations for deep foundation support of the ramps, including static and seismic axial capacity, lateral pile capacity, settlement, and pile installation ▪ Recommended type(s) of retaining wall systems to support the proposed development ▪ Slope stability and simplified seismic deformation (Newmark) analyses Docusign Envelope ID: 2F0B5F07-88B0-43CD-A60C-A4FD3BE63060 Dec. 3, 2024 Item #9 Page 42 of 98 DUDEK ADA Beach Access Ramps North of Pine Avenue and at Tamarack State Beach 22 ▪ Construction considerations and recommendations, including excavation, subgrade preparation, material requirements, and compaction requirements 2. Prepare the final geotechnical engineering report capturing review comments from the City and project team Stormwater Quality Management Plan The project is required to comply with the 2013 San Diego Municipal Separate Storm Sewer System permit, and it is assumed that the project will be subject to the Standard Project requirements as it will stay under the new and/or replaced impervious area threshold for a priority development project. The team will work with the design team to incorporate site design and source control BMPs to minimize the project’s impact on stormwater quality. To meet the City’s permit obligations, a Standard Storm Water Quality Management Plan (SWQMP) will be prepared for and will include the stormwater quality management plan (Form E-35), a standard project requirement checklist (Form E-36). It is assumed that after 60% design, only minor modifications to the documents will be required. Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan Dudek will review the project design disturbance area to determine what tier level of SWPPP will be necessary for the project. It is assumed that a Tier 3 SWPPP will be required, and the document will be prepared according to requirements outlined in the NPDES Construction General Permit SWRCB Order No. 2022-0057-DWQ and under the guidance of a qualified SWPPP Developer (QSD). Based on an initial review of the project parameters, it is assumed the project will have a high receiving water risk and low sediment risk; therefore, it will be Risk Level 1. The SWPPP will be based on the latest California Stormwater Quality Association SWPPP template. This task assumes that there will be electronic submittals of the SWPPP and one review cycle with comments. It is assumed that Dudek will be the QSD through the design process, and the Contractor’s QSD will assume all SWPPP responsibilities after the project is awarded. Dudek will help prepare the permit registration document in SMARTS for the City. The costs are based on preparing a Risk Level 1 SWPPP. Task 3.9 Deliverables: ▪ Construction Drawings: 30%, 60%, 90%, 100%, and Final ▪ Technical Specifications: 60%, 90%, 100%, and Final ▪ Engineering Calculations: 100% and Final ▪ Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP) ▪ Cost Estimates: 90%, 100%, and Final Task 3.9 Assumptions: ▪ The City will provide comments to each draft document submittal within 10 business days of submission. ▪ The existing retaining wall adjacent to the Tamarack Avenue restroom will not require enhancement or replacement. ▪ Restrooms at each site are already ADA-compatible or ADA-exempt or will be upgraded separately from this project; therefore, restroom upgrades are not part of this project. ▪ All submittals except for the technical specifications will be submitted in scalable digital files compatible with the standard Adobe Acrobat PDF software; technical specifications will be submitted in Word format compatible with the Microsoft Office Suite. ▪ Final project drawings will additionally be submitted in AutoCAD .dwg format. ▪ The City will provide a specification template to the Consultant. The City’s specifications are currently based on the “Greenbook” and the City of Carlsbad standards.

Project Element 4: Permitting and Environmental Processing Services Our environmental permitters and planners will prepare and obtain the necessary project permits, conduct technically sound assessments, and manage the environmental review processes in a streamlined, compliant, and straightforward manner. In addition to CCC, two key resource agencies regulate impacts to tidal waters in southern California: the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) and Regional Water Quality Control Board (RWQCB). Based on recent field observations of the high tide line coupled with a review of shoreline modeling data provided by the U.S. Geological Service Coastal Storm Modeling System accessed via the Our Coast Our Future web platform, it appears that the proposed project is landward of the mean high water line and high tide line. Since no work components appear to extend into these tidal waters, wetlands regulatory permits from USACE and RWQCB are not required, and wetlands regulatory permitting services are therefore excluded from this proposal. The following sub-tasks describe the required environmental documentation and CDP permitting. Task 4.1 CEQA Documentation Based on the RFP and our previous project experience in the City, the environmental documentation appropriate for this project consists of a Mitigated Negative Declaration (MND) addressing the environmental effects of the proposed action and associated approvals. The following details describe our approach to completing each task necessary for the MND, as well as the technical studies to be prepared to adequately support the findings of the MND. The technical studies to be prepared include air quality/greenhouse gas, biology, cultural resources, paleontological resources, historical resources, and noise, which are outlined as follows: 4.1.1 Preparation of the MND In close cooperation with City staff, Dudek will prepare the MND in conformance with the criteria, standards, and provisions of CEQA and City guidelines. A total of two screenchecks will be prepared and provided to the City for review and approval before the release of the final Draft MND to the public. The document will identify potentially significant environmental effects and will identify all feasible measures to mitigate those effects to a less-than-significant level. A Notice of Completion and Notice of Availability will accompany the public review documents. It is assumed the City will be the lead for mailing out all notices. Dudek will provide copies of the Draft MND to City staff for distribution during the 30-day public review period. Following conclusion of the public review period, Dudek will address public comments on the Draft MND, provide responses to comments, and prepare revisions to the Draft MND text, if necessary. This proposal assumes that Dudek will respond to no more than 30 individual public comments on the Draft MND from all comment letters received (note that a single comment letter may contain multiple comments). Dudek will prepare the Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program (MMRP) for inclusion in the Final MND. The MMRP will include a brief project description, a list of agencies with jurisdiction over the project, monitoring roles and responsibilities, and general monitoring procedures. Based on comments from City staff, Dudek will prepare the Final MND for certification. We assume preparation of two Screencheck Final MNDs, followed by a Final MND for production, incorporating City comments. Dudek will assemble the Final MND and provide the necessary copies and digital files to City staff to take the MND through the hearing process to certification. This task includes project management and administration, regular progress reports and communication with the City, coordination of the project team, and quality control. It is assumed that six meetings will be necessary during the approximately 12-month period for MND processing. Additionally, Dudek will attend one Planning Commission hearing and one City Council hearing, as necessary. Docusign Envelope ID: 2F0B5F07-88B0-43CD-A60C-A4FD3BE63060 Dec. 3, 2024 Item #9 Page 44 of 98 DUDEK ADA Beach Access Ramps North of Pine Avenue and at Tamarack State Beach 24 4.1.2 Air Quality and Greenhouse Gas Assessment Dudek will prepare an assessment of the air quality and greenhouse gas (GHG) impacts of the proposed project utilizing the significance thresholds in Appendix G of the CEQA Guidelines and the San Diego County Air Pollution Control District’s (SDAPCDs) emissions-based thresholds as the basis. The air quality and GHG sections of the Initial Study (IS)/MND will include a brief discussion of criteria air pollutants, regional meteorology, the attainment status of the San Diego Air Basin, global climate change and a summary of applicable regulatory measures. We will identify federal, state, and local regulatory agencies responsible for air quality management; summarize applicable federal, state, and local air quality policies, regulations, and standards, including applicable SDAPCD rules and regulations. Daily criteria air pollutant emission calculations will be included in a technical appendix to the IS/MND. Dudek will estimate criteria air pollutant and GHG emissions associated with the construction phase of the proposed project using the California Emissions Estimator Model (CalEEMod). Dudek will then evaluate the significance of the construction emissions based on the thresholds established by SDAPCD. The GHG emissions analysis will follow the City’s Guidance to Demonstrating Consistency with the City’s Climate Action Plan (CAP) for discretionary projects subject to CEQA (July 2020). The emissions from the project will be compared to the screening threshold of 900 metric tons of carbon dioxide equivalent defined within the City’s CAP. We anticipate operational activities associated with the project would be negligible, consisting only of routine maintenance. As such, a qualitative discussion of potential operational emissions will be included. Additional Appendix G thresholds will also be evaluated, including the potential for the project to expose sensitive receptors to substantial pollutant concentrations, to cause objectionable odors, or to impede attainment of the SDAPCD air quality plans, specifically the Regional Air Quality Strategy or whether a project would generate GHG emissions, either directly or indirectly, that may have a significant impact on the environment and conflict with an applicable plan, policy, or regulation adopted for the purpose of reducing GHG emissions. 4.1.3 Biological Survey Memorandum Dudek biologists will work with City staff to determine the limits of the study area. For purposes of this proposal, it is assumed that the study areas at the Pine Avenue site and Tamarack site will be approximately 0.5 acres each, for a total approximate study area of 1 acre. A search of existing records will be performed for each project site, which will include a 1-mile radius prior to the on-site general biological survey. Land cover types within the study area will be mapped, and an assessment of suitable habitat for special-status species will be conducted. Vegetation mapping will follow Holland (1986), as modified in the Draft Vegetation Communities of San Diego County (Oberbauer et al. 2008), with modifications to accommodate the lack of conformity of the observed communities. Plant and wildlife species encountered during the survey will be recorded and compiled into an index for the brief Biological Survey Memorandum. The memorandum will include photos and GIS-based graphics. No focused or protocol surveys for sensitive plants or animals will be conducted as part of this task, but the location of any sensitive species, if observed, will be documented. Dudek will prepare GIS shapefiles of the data. Concurrent with the biological survey, both sites will be reviewed for potentially jurisdictional aquatic resource features that may be under the jurisdiction of USACE pursuant to Section 404 of the Clean Water Act (CWA) and Section 10 of the Rivers and Harbors Act, the San Diego RWQCB pursuant to CWA Section 401 and the Porter–Cologne Act, California Department of Fish and Wildlife pursuant to California Fish and Game Code Sections 1600–1603, and CCC pursuant to the CCA. Dudek anticipates that the study areas will be located on the coastal bluff slopes themselves and will not extend down onto the beach. This scope does not include a stand-alone Aquatic Resources Delineation Report (ARDR), which if requested by the agencies during the permitting process, may be completed under a separate task. Dudek will review and address one round of consolidated City comments on the Biological Survey Memorandum from the City. This cost proposal does not include addressing comments by permitting agencies. It is assumed that the site does not Docusign Envelope ID: 2F0B5F07-88B0-43CD-A60C-A4FD3BE63060 Dec. 3, 2024 Item #9 Page 45 of 98 DUDEK ADA Beach Access Ramps North of Pine Avenue and at Tamarack State Beach 25 support potential for special-status species occurrences that would influence the project alternatives or methods aside from typical breeding season and jurisdictional status restrictions. It is assumed that no jurisdictional aquatic resources are present on the coastal bluff slopes of the study areas. 4.1.4 Cultural Resources Study The Dudek cultural resources inventory will include a records search, initiation of correspondence with the Native American Heritage Commission (NAHC), a pedestrian survey, and report preparation. Dudek will begin by conducting a California Historical Resources Information Systems (CHRIS) records search of the project area and a one-mile radius at the South Coastal Information Center (SCIC), which houses cultural resource records for San Diego County. Dudek will request a search of the California Native American Heritage Commission’s (NAHC) Sacred Lands File and will send letters to each of the tribal contacts identified by the NAHC to request information on any resources they may know of in the area. These efforts do not constitute consultation under Assembly Bill (AB) 52. This scope and fee assume that the City will handle AB 52 consultation without Dudek assistance. If needed, Dudek will work with the City to augment this scope to include AB 52 assistance. Upon completion of background research, Dudek will conduct a pedestrian survey of the proposed project area for cultural resources (including both prehistoric and historic archaeological resources). Dudek will subcontract a Luiseño Native American monitor from Saving Sacred Sites who will participate in the survey. The pedestrian survey will be completed for the entire project area where the ground surface is visible. Survey transects will be spaced at maximum intervals of 10 meters where earthen exposures exist. Dudek assumes that the survey will require no more than one qualified archaeologist and one Luiseño Native American monitor no more than one day to complete. The proposed cultural resources scope of work only includes services related to archaeological resources. Dudek assumes that the survey will be negative for archaeological resources and that a letter report will be sufficient to document the study. The cultural resources study will be completed in accordance with CEQA and City of Carlsbad guidelines. The report will identify potential impacts to archaeological and tribal cultural resources and will make recommendations for mitigation measures and other management considerations, pursuant to CEQA, as appropriate. If cultural resources are identified, then an augment to this scope of work may be required. The report will take 6-8 weeks to complete from Notice to Proceed. Dudek assumes that no more than two rounds of comments from the City will require a response for the cultural resources report. Dudek will revise the draft report based on comments and submit a final report in PDF. Upon acceptance of the final report by the City, Dudek will submit a copy to the SCIC. 4.1.5 Paleontological Resources Study Dudek will complete a paleontological resources assessment pursuant to CEQA requirements and the Society of Vertebrate Paleontology guidelines. Dudek's qualified paleontologists will request a paleontological records search through the San Diego Natural History Museum to determine the location of any previously recorded fossil discoveries within or nearby the project site. Following the records search, a Dudek paleontologist will survey the project site for surficial paleontological resources potentially exposed along the bluff. The archaeologist conducting the archaeological survey will be dual-trained in paleontological surveying techniques, thereby negating the need for a separate paleontological survey. In addition, Dudek paleontologists will review available geological maps, geological and paleontological literature, geotechnical reports, and grading plans pertinent to the project. The paleontological survey, background geological and paleontological desktop review, and paleontological records search results will provide information necessary to develop paleontological sensitivity determinations for the project site. Dudek will prepare a paleontological resources survey letter report that will include all necessary information and provide recommendations for future management considerations or treatment. It is assumed that any existing geotechnical and paleontological resource reports will be provided to Dudek if available. This cost assumes one round of review comments/editing of the letter report.

In this task, the results of literature review and project analysis tasks will be documented in a due-diligence HRTR. The HRTR will facilitate compliance with CEQA by examining the proposed project plans for potential direct or indirect impacts as well as compliance with the Secretary’s Standards. According to CEQA Guidelines Section 15064.5(b)(3), projects that comply with the Secretary’s Standards are generally considered mitigated to a level of less than significant. This analysis will include one site visit to understand and characterize project goals and the setting of the historical resource. This scope does not include preparation of a new historic context or a re-evaluation of the property; previous documentation will be utilized to characterize the historical resource and its character-defining features. 4.1.7 Noise Study Dudek will conduct a noise and vibration analysis of construction activities associated with the proposed project and assess adverse effects to the surrounding area with respect to relevant City standards and other guidance. Dudek will perform investigator-attended short-duration (i.e., 15 minutes each) measurements of sample daytime outdoor sound level at up to four on site and/or nearby off site locations to quantify and characterize the pre- existing environment. Collected data may be used to help validate estimated levels during typical evening and nighttime periods. Using available information on the anticipated construction equipment roster and schedule, we will use the Federal Highway Administration (FWHA) Roadway Construction Noise Model (RCNM) or a comparable tool/technique at our discretion to predict construction noise levels at up to four nearest representative noise- sensitive receivers, for each of up to five sequential phases of project activities. If exceedances of applicable noise and vibration standards are predicted, we will provide conceptual mitigation measure recommendations that, if implemented properly, would be anticipated to result in less than significant impacts. Dudek proposes to prepare a draft IS/MND noise section, backed by a technical appendix containing details as needed. Task 4.2 Coastal Development Permits Dudek will coordinate with City and CCC staff throughout the CDP process. Because the project spans both City CDP/CCC appeal jurisdictions and CCC CDP jurisdiction, this task assumes that the City will issue the CDP for the proposed ADA ramp at the Pine Avenue location and request CCC to issue the CDP for the proposed ADA ramp at the Tamarack Avenue location, as described in Task 3.6. Alternatively, Dudek coastal planners could support City staff through the consolidated CCC CDP process for the entire project with tasks generally similar to those described herein, but with slight modifications that may be subject to a revised scope and fees (e.g., increased efficiencies associated with preparing a single application package). As such, this proposal covers coastal support services related to the preparation, submittal, and processing of two separate CDPs by the City and CCC. City Coastal Development Permit (CDP) Dudek will assemble the City CDP application package, including completing the City CDP application form, compiling all required attachments, and preparing a submittal letter that summarizes environmental information and technical studies to demonstrate compliance with applicable LCP policies, which is utilized by City staff to write its staff report findings. Following the City’s first 30-day review of the application submittal, Dudek coastal planners will review any requests for additional project information and provide recommendations to deem the application complete and prepare for a decision-maker hearing. Because of the early coordination effort conducted in Task 3.6, this scope assumes one 30- day City incomplete letter/review cycle to thoroughly address potential impacts to coastal resources. After the CDP application is formally filed, Dudek will coordinate with City staff during development of the staff recommendation.

As needed, Dudek will support the City in preparing a presentation to address the staff recommendation and any specific special conditions. In addition, Dudek will attend the public hearing and be available to answer questions that come up during the hearing. Assuming that the City approves the CDP and wants to seek release of the permit, Dudek will help the City compile all the materials needed to satisfy the special conditions of the permit. Dudek will coordinate with the City, as necessary, to oversee issuance of the permit, which must occur before construction can begin. CCC Coastal Development Permit (CDP) Dudek will assemble the CCC CDP application package, including completing the CCC CDP application form, compiling all required attachments, and preparing a submittal letter that summarizes environmental information and technical studies to demonstrate compliance with applicable CCA policies, which is utilized by CCC staff to write its staff report findings. Following the CCC first 30-day review of the application submittal, Dudek coastal planners will review any requests for additional project information and provide recommendations to deem the application complete and prepare for a decision-maker hearing. Because of the early coordination effort conducted in Task 3.6, this scope assumes one 30-day CCC incomplete letter/review cycles to thoroughly address potential impacts to coastal resources. After the CDP application is formally filed, Dudek will coordinate with CCC staff during development of the staff recommendation. Prior to the public hearing on the CDP application, Dudek will review the final CCC staff report/recommendation and discuss the findings with the City. As needed, Dudek will support the City in preparing a presentation to address the staff recommendation and any specific special conditions. In addition, Dudek will attend the CCC hearing and be available to answer questions that come up during the hearing. Assuming that the City approves the CDP and wants to seek release of the permit, Dudek will help the City compile all the materials needed to satisfy the special conditions of the permit. Dudek will coordinate with CCC, as necessary, to oversee issuance of the permit, which must occur before construction can begin. Deliverables: ▪ City and CCC CDP application package ▪ Response to a City and a CCC incomplete letter ▪ Review of City and CCC staff report, including conditions of approval and findings ▪ Preparation for and attendance of City public hearing and a CCC hearing to support the City’s presentation, if necessary ▪ Compilation of City and CCC CDP condition compliance materials Assumptions: ▪ Dudek will be required to provide responses to one round of consolidated City comments on the permit applications. ▪ If comments received by the City and CCC require additional planning, coordination, or meeting time that exceeds the allotted task budget, a change order will be issued to continue work obtaining the necessary approvals. ▪ This task assumes that a Dudek coastal planner will prepare for and attend one in-person meetings with City and CCC staff and participate in two additional meetings, via conference call, to resolve any potential policy or procedural issues that may arise during the review process for the CDPs.

Served as project manager. The existing 300-linear-foot segment of sewer within Knoll Road near State Route 78 had several sags in the vertical alignment that were reducing capacity. Dudek was hired to design the replacement of the existing sewer within the same vertical and horizontal profile, mitigating the sagging issue. The project impacted the State Route 78 off- ramp and therefore required substantial coordination with the California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) to design the rerouting of traffic around the project construction site. The resulting project utilized bypass pumping to address ongoing sewer flows and allowed for the successful replacement of the pipeline, providing improved performance and reliability. Bay Crossing Water Main Replacement, City of Newport Beach, California. Serving as project manager. The Newport Beach Peninsula and surrounding islands (Balboa, Harbor, Linda, Lido, and Channel) are provided water service through a combination of existing bridges and under the bay through a pipeline installation technique called subaqueous crossing. Many of these subaqueous crossings are between 40 and 60 years old; if a failure were to occur, it could affect the ability to provide adequate fire flow to homes and businesses. Dudek conducted an evaluation of potential impacts in 2011 and is currently working on the preliminary design of eight new water pipeline crossings using a combination of construction methods, including HDD and microtunneling. Being adjacent and under the bay, the project includes the preparation of an Environmental Impact Report to address the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) requirements associated with the construction process. Once complete, the new pipelines will provide the City with the reassurance of continued reliable water service to the public in and around the peninsula. Rochester Road Storm Drain Replacement, City of San Diego, California. Served as project manager. During the winter of 2019, a short segment of 18-inch corrugated metal storm drain pipe failed, causing local erosion. Dudek, along with Flatiron Construction were hired to design and build the replacement pipeline. The new 18-inch reinforced concrete pipeline was substantially extended in length, using a deep-pit jack-and-bore casing to roughly triple the pipe length into the neighborhood canyon. The final project completely eliminates the potential for localized erosion, protecting the neighborhood properties and roadway. Upper and Lower System Recycled Water System Expansion, City of Oceanside, California. Served as project manager. The City of Oceanside wanted to construct a new recycled water system. Starting from preliminary GIS data from the master plan, Dudek developed the complete water distribution system model using Innovyze InfoWater to validate and improve the hydraulics of the system. The upper system design included 15 miles of water distribution pipelines and two water storage tanks (both approximately 2.5 million gallons) with booster pump stations feeding upper closed hydropneumatic pressure zones. Construction began in 2020 for the upper system, with the lower system projected to begin construction in 2022. Anaheim South Recycled Water Project, City of Anaheim, California. Served as pipeline engineer. The City of Anaheim was seeking to supplement potable water demands in and around the Disneyland Resort with recycled water. Dudek was hired to prepare a hydraulic model using Innovyze InfoWater software during the preliminary design phase, allowing for the identification of necessary infrastructure (turnout, 7 miles of pipeline, and booster pump station) to support the distribution of up to 3,500 gallons per minute of recycled water to the region. Following the modeling process, Dudek prepared the complete design plans and bid documents for the construction of the $25 million infrastructure project. Once construction is complete, the project will provide a supplement to the Southern California water supply and convert the substantial Disneyland irrigation demand to a sustainable water supply.
