Executive Summary
Mikhail Ogawa Engineering (MOE) is a local North San Diego County based engineering and environmental firm that has a
focus on urban runoff management program development and implementation, watershed management, regulatory support,
and effectiveness assessment of storm water programs. MOE brings extensive experience in working in the Carlsbad Watershed
Management Area (CWMA) serving as the Watershed Coordinator for the past eleven years. MOE has unique qualifications of
CWMA-specific knowledge, hands-on understanding of the regulations, and connections to regional issues. These credentials
position MOE as qualified lead for the CWMA Water Quality Improvement Plan (WQIP) Coordinator and Annual Report project.
MOE has assembled a team that brings together the region’s most highly qualified professionals and expertise to assure that
the MOE Team provides the CWMA Copermittees with the right technical and regulatory resources to best meet the WQIP
compliance requirements both cost effectively and based on proven science. The MOE Team includes Wood, who has extensive
regional and watershed experience in water quality and special studies and will support the water quality analysis and
assessment. Their expertise and understanding of the CWMA, urban runoff management programs, and monitoring will provide
valuable support for annual reporting and any miscellaneous tasks that may be needed by the CWMA Copermittees.
The MOE Team has the following key experience and expertise to successfully complete the scope of work (RFP18-385ENV)
that includes coordination efforts, annual reporting, and additional tasks over the course of the contract.
Local Team with Extensive Knowledge of CWMA – The MOE Team has unparalleled knowledge of the CWMA
through the role as serving as the CWMA Watershed Coordinator, developing the CWMA WQIP and WQIP Annual
Report, both preparing and reviewing the CWMA Section of the Regional Monitoring Annual Report, Lower San Marcos
Hydrologic Area (HA) TMDL compliance and reporting, coordination with Escondido Creek Hydromodification Plan
(HMP) Exemption, and knowledge of monitoring and special studies implemented within the CWMA. We can begin
work immediately and reduce upfront efforts keeping costs down and the project on schedule.
Team has Previously Developed Carlsbad WMA WQIP and WQIP Annual Report– The MOE Team has worked
collaboratively with the Carlsbad WMA Copermittees in the development of the Carlsbad WMA WQIP and the January
2018 WQIP Annual Report. Our Team is also entrenched in regional efforts allowing consistency with other watersheds
while providing efficiencies. Our approach is to use our collective knowledge and previously developed
documents to cost effectively develop the CWMA WQIP Annual Report.
Unmatched Working Relationships - The MOE Team has a unique and unparalleled experience in the CWMA
understanding the history of program development, challenges and opportunities, and implementation efforts currently
underway by each Copermittee. Our Team has worked directly with CWMA jurisdictions and Regional Water Quality
Control Board (RWQCB) staff specifically for the CWMA. These direct experiences have fostered great working
relationships and ensure mutual understanding of implementation efforts and regulatory requests. Through hands-on
experience we understand what has worked in the Carlsbad WMA and have developed essential trusted
relationships with Regional Water Quality Control Board staff.
Our proposed method to accomplish the work begins with strong project leadership. Kelly Ogawa, who currently serves as the
CWMA Watershed Coordinator (for the past two years), will be the Team’s Project Manager. Kelly will maintain a strong presence
and role in all project tasks to assure a seamless team effort with high quality work products and minimal administrative burden
on the CWMA Copermittees. The Team’s strategy for accomplishing the work is to use our team’s collective experience, local
and regional knowledge, and trusted working relationships to lead watershed coordination and annual reporting efforts.
Our Team can build on the strong foundation created over the past eleven years with the CWMA Copermittees to further improve
program management, reporting, and coordination. We can leverage our experience and knowledge to deliver clear, concise,
and straightforward deliverables on-time and within budget. For annual reporting, this will be accomplished through close
Copermittee coordination, comprehensive data collection, and early communication with RWQCB staff on required timelines for
data submittal. Our Team members collaborate frequently and will work seamlessly to meet the CWMA Copermittee requests.
Additionally, our Team is prepared to implement any miscellaneous tasks that may be needed as demonstrated through our
current Watershed Coordinator services (e.g. RWQCB GIS data request and 3rd party report review for WQIP Annual Report
inclusion).

Program Effectiveness and Assessment
The Team’s experience in the San Diego region has established trusted reputations and relationships with not only Copermittees
but also stakeholders and regulators. These relationships are invaluable for coordination and management of implementation
and annual reporting.
Below are three project examples that demonstrate our expertise and knowledge of the CWMA, CWMA Copermittees and
watershed/jurisdictional planning and implementation. One of the priceless outcomes of all the various projects that the MOE
Team has been a part of is the lessons learned. The Team will bring these learned lessons to the CWMA WQIP Coordinator
and Annual Reporting project which will streamline the process and produce efficient work products.
Carlsbad Watershed Coordinator: City of Carlsbad and CWMA Copermittees
MOE provides technical support,
guidance, and expertise to the
Copermittees in the CWMA for their
WQIP efforts. The support includes
program development, Copermittee
and RWQCB coordination, setting
and facilitating meeting agendas,
development of watershed activities
and annual reporting. MOE led the effort to develop the Carlsbad WQIP which included an
active diverse group of stakeholders. MOE was instrumental in the refinement of the WQIP
that included re-evaluation of priorities, sources, strategies, and goals based on RWQCB
direction. For the WQIP Annual Report, MOE introduced an approach to integrate the
reporting of Copermittee’s jurisdictional, watershed, and regional programmatic activities to
provide a more comprehensive evaluation of the activities conducted in the CWMA and each
of the distinct Hydrologic Areas (HAs). By collecting and reporting data and information not
typically presented, the approach provided a more accurate accounting of the substantial
efforts undertaken by the CWMA to address water quality. The reporting process included
meeting with Copermittees, coordination with RWQCB staff, analysis and assessment of
program activities and developing draft documents for review by Copermittees. The final
versions were produced and submitted to the RWQCB as required by the Municipal Separate
Storm Sewer System (MS4) permit. MOE provided this support in an effective and efficient
manner that allowed the Copermittees to focus on their continued program implementation.
MOE coordinated with RWQCB staff and facilitated communication to reach common ground
for documents, analyses, and programs. MOE’s extensive knowledge, expertise, and trusted
relationships with RWQCB staff were invaluable in moving program development and
coordination efforts in a positive and collaborative direction.
This project continued to expand MOE’s knowledge and familiarity with CWMA
characteristics, and the regional, watershed and jurisdictional programmatic activities
implemented to address water quality conditions. MOE consistently delivered exceptional
work products, addressed multiple unanticipated work efforts and remained within, and often
under budget, over the course of the five-year contract.

3 Proposed Method to Accomplish the Work
MOE has served in the role of watershed coordinator for the past eleven years in the CWMA. MOE recognizes the level of effort
that the Lead Copermittee and CWMA Copermittees have put forth over the past eleven years with respect to coordination and
administrative efforts. Kelly Ogawa, as the Project Manager, will ensure minimal administrative burden on the Lead Copermittee
and CWMA Copermittees and, maintain high quality work products by being a strong Team lead in all tasks associated with the
project.
Carlsbad Watershed Management Area Water Quality Improvement Plan Coordinator and Annual Report Proposal May 4, 2018

Our experiences with the CWMA Copermittees, both individually and collectively, allows the MOE Team to maintain consistency
and provide uninterrupted services through project initiation. We will not be stalled by learning about the watershed, jurisdictions
and the existing program implementation, goals, and procedures. There is a highly effective approach to accomplish the goals
set forth in the RFP. Our fundamental strategy for accomplishing the work will be to capitalize on the existing efforts that have
taken place in the CWMA and San Diego County Region.
Our general approach to the WQIP Annual Report development process and WQIP Coordinator efforts will be to:
Facilitate communication and meetings with the CWMA group. This will include relevant Ralph M. Brown Act (Brown
Act) meetings and procedures the CWMA group deems necessary. The Team will coordinate with the RWQCB, other
watershed groups, and other stakeholders as applicable and requested by the CWMA Copermittees.
Collect data and information from Copermittees. MOE implemented this process for the January 2018 WQIP Annual
Report and will be efficient by implementing “lessons learned” from data collection efforts, and use of existing
jurisdictional reporting templates.
Once the initial WQIP Annual Report information is received, the Team will work with CWMA Copermittees to evaluate
and determine strategies to highlight within the body of the WQIP Annual Report. Additionally, the Team will work with
the Carlsbad WMA Copermittees to determine progress towards goals and the presentation of goal achievements.
The Team will develop the WQIP Annual Report in a similar format and structure as the January 2018 WQIP Annual
Report. The format and structure may be revised after discussions with the Carlsbad WMA Copermittees based on
RWQCB comments received or applicable input from other watershed groups or the region.
For miscellaneous tasks identified during the contract, the Team will coordinate with the CWMA Copermittees to
determine the appropriate resources to complete the tasks in the most efficient and effective manner.
The following sub-sections describe the technical approach the MOE Team proposes to perform the tasks as identified in the
RFP scope of work.
3.1 RFP Task 1: WQIP Annual Report
MOE has provided similar services for the past eleven years through the development of Watershed Urban Runoff Management
Plan Annual Reports and the January 2018 Carlsbad WMA WQIP Annual Report. The first year of the WQIP Annual Report
provided a foundation for report structure and format along with data and information collection and analysis processes.
The approach to the WQIP Annual Report development and completion is described in the sub-sections below.
3.1.1 WQIP Annual Report Development Project Schedule
The proposed schedule is presented in Figure 1 and is based upon the requirements in the RFP which included two draft WQIP
Annual Reports, 30-day review period per draft, and a Final WQIP Annual Report to be submitted 30 days prior to January 30,
2019. As the incumbent, the MOE Team can leverage existing resources and contract to begin the data request if a notice to
proceed has not been issued by August 1, 2018. This benefit assists in ensuring required submittal and review milestones in
the schedule can be met. The CWMA WQIP group currently meets the 3rd Tuesday of every month. To meet the project schedule,
the Team is proposing to shift the November 2018 meeting to allow for discussion of comments received before the final draft
submittal. Additionally, the January 2019 meeting can be used for “Brown Act” voting to approve the submittal of the Final
January 2019 Carlsbad WMA WQIP Annual Report to the RWQCB and posting to the Project Clean Water website. The MOE
Team will prepare a detailed project schedule to be reviewed and approved by the CWMA Copermittees prior to the start of the
Annual Report process.
3.1.2 CWMA Copermittee Data and Information Requests, Collection, and Coordination
The Team will manage the required solicitation of data and information from the Copermittees to be included in the WQIP Annual
Report. The Team recognizes the challenges of providing data and information during annual reporting “season”, and our Team
strives to make the process well-organized and straightforward. As noted in the schedule (Figure 1), the data collection process
will begin in August 2018. There are numerous data elements that must be collected and compiled to develop and present a
comprehensive WQIP Annual Report. The sub-sections below provide a summary listing of the specific types of data and
information that will be requested. MOE will send an email to the RWQCB staff person for the Carlsbad Watershed as a
notification that data or information to be considered for the January 2019 WQIP Annual Report shall be submitted to MOE no
later than August 31, 2018. This has been discussed with current RWQCB staff to prevent receiving data and information late
in the reporting process for inclusion in the Annual Report.

3.1.2.1 JRMP Data and Information
CWMA Copermittees use significant resources, funding, and staff to implement JRMP-related programs. This data and
information is important to provide a holistic perspective of efforts implemented to protect, preserve, and enhance water quality
throughout the WMA and the hydrologic areas. JRMP forms and fiscal analysis information will be requested from Copermittees,
and the Team will compile all the data and information for inclusion and presentation in the WQIP Annual Report. The Team will
use the existing MOE-developed templates to consolidate data for Annual Report presentation. Based on recent discussions
with RWQCB staff, the Team will also request trash program information (i.e. track selection and additional applicable
information) for inclusion in the WQIP Annual Report. RWQCB staff have indicated that the expectation is for Trash Amendment
information to be a part of each Copermittee’s JRMP Annual Report Form submittal, and the Team can help facilitate
presentation of this information for the WQIP Annual Report.
3.1.2.2 TMDL or Regulatory Required Documents / Submittals
The CWMA is unique not only due to the six distinct hydrologic areas but also due to the various separate regulatory
requirements. Data and information from the following regulatory efforts are required to be included in the WQIP Annual Report
and will be requested from the respective Copermittee or applicable group of Copermittees.
Loma Alta Slough Resolution R9-2014-0020
Moonlight Beach Bacteria TMDL
Lake San Marcos Remediation
It is important to note that the documents associated with the above regulatory implementation items are often not finalized or
available for review and inclusion in the early phase of the WQIP Annual Report development schedule. In the past, the Team
has worked with the respective Copermittees to ensure information is included in drafts and the final WQIP Annual Report. The
Team will continue to provide this coordination as part of this project.
3.1.2.3 WQIP Strategy Implementation Updates and Progress toward Goals
The Team developed and used jurisdictional reporting templates for the January 2018 WQIP Annual Report to facilitate data
collection and reporting. Copermittee feedback on the forms were received and the necessary revisions, along with applicable
updates, will be made before distribution to Copermittees under this project. The forms help to consolidate the applicable
information on WQIP strategies and goals for each jurisdiction individually. Once the information is received, it will be compiled
to present the implementation efforts for the watershed and individual hydrologic areas.
3.1.2.4 Monitoring Data, Information, and Assessments
The CWMA monitoring contractor is responsible for providing Storm Water Monitoring Coalition (SMC), wet and dry weather
data and information to the Watershed Coordinator in the form of three separate technical memorandums for incorporation into
the WQIP Annual Report. Wood is the current monitoring contractor for the CWMA which will make the coordination to receive
monitoring data and information seamless for our Team. MOE will receive the memorandums, review and provide quality control
on the data before summarizing the information in the WQIP Annual Report. MOE established templates for producing the
necessary data reviews and creating appropriate graphs and figures for the WQIP Annual Report and will use them for these
efforts.
Due to the timing of the monitoring programs, the SMC and wet weather monitoring technical memorandums will be provided to
MOE by the monitoring consultant no later than August 31, 2018 and the dry weather monitoring technical memorandum will be
provided no later than October 30, 2018. With the dry weather season ending September 30, 2018 and the necessary timing of
deliverables with review periods, the dry weather monitoring information, analysis and assessments will not be included in the
first draft of the WQIP Annual Report. This information will be incorporated into the final draft of the WQIP Annual Report.
The requests referenced in Sections 3.1.2.2 and 3.1.2.3 above, will also be used for special study data, information, and final
reports as well as TMDL or regulatory required monitoring efforts.
MOE will incorporate all the applicable monitoring information and summaries into the WQIP Annual Report. Wood will review
the monitoring sections of the CWMA WQIP Annual Report final draft as part of this contract to ensure the accuracy and
consistency of incorporating the monitoring technical memorandum information into the report.
3.1.2.5 Regional Implementation Efforts (including Integrated Regional Water Management Plan Efforts)
There are numerous regional efforts that are undertaken by the CWMA Copermittees to implement effective and efficient water
quality programs. This information will be requested from the County of San Diego and other identified jurisdictions by the Team
for inclusion in the WQIP Annual Report. It is important to summarize and highlight these efforts to present the comprehensive
Carlsbad Watershed Management Area Water Quality Improvement Plan Coordinator and Annual Report Proposal May 4, 2018
8
implementation efforts in the watershed. The Team has a list of contacts and regional efforts developed from previous reporting
efforts that can be used to ensure the appropriate information is included in the Annual Report.
Sub-task Deliverables:
The Team will prepare the following materials as part of the efforts for sub-sections described above:
1. Detailed project schedule based on Figure 1 for review and confirmation by the CWMA Copermittees
2. Revised jurisdictional reporting templates to collect WQIP strategy implementation updates and goal updates
3. Email correspondence with County of San Diego to request regional reporting items
4. Email correspondence to each jurisdiction detailing requested items and documents necessary for WQIP Annual
Report development
5. Email correspondence with RWQCB staff on reporting information deadlines
6. Completed templates of consolidated reporting information
3.1.3 WQIP Annual Report Draft
Based on the data and information received through the process identified in Section 3.1.2 above, the Team will generate a
draft WQIP Annual Report for review and comment. With our knowledge of Copermittee existing program implementation, the
Team can work closely with individual Copermittees to determine desirable strategy highlights and presentation of progress
toward goals for applicable hydrologic areas. The Team has existing templates for report structure and data consolidation that
will facilitate efficiencies in developing the draft of the WQIP Annual Report. Unless comments or direction is received from
RWQCB, CWMA Copermittees, or the region, the Team plans to use the format and structure of the 2018 WQIP Annual Report.
Sub-task Deliverables:
1. WQIP Annual Report Draft
2. List of outstanding items of information needed from each CWMA Copermittee
3.1.4 WQIP Annual Report Final Draft
The Team will incorporate, as appropriate, comments received on the Draft WQIP Annual Report or outstanding data and
information that was received during the Draft comment period. The Team will create a response to comments document to
catalog all the comments received and provide an accounting of how each was addressed.
Sub-task Deliverables:
1. WQIP Annual Report Final Draft
2. Response to Comments Table for the WQIP Annual Report Draft
3. List of outstanding items of information needed from applicable CWMA Copermittee(s)
3.1.5 WQIP Annual Report Final
The MOE Team will prepare a Final WQIP Annual Report for submittal to CWMA Copermittees a minimum 30 days prior to the
due date of January 30, 2019. It is important to note that some documents or report items may not be ready by the proposed
December 28, 2018 timeframe (Figure 1). The MOE team will discuss with the CWMA Copermittees how this may be addressed
if applicable. Applicable GIS information associated with the Annual Report will also be provided and posted to the Regional
Clearinghouse by MOE.
Sub-task Deliverables:

3.2 RFP Task 2: CWMA Copermittee Coordination
MOE, as the current CWMA Coordinator, has continued to provide successful coordination and administrative services for the
CWMA Copermittees under the WURMP from 2007 to 2013 and the WQIP from 2013 to the present time. These services have
included setting monthly meetings, meeting facilitation, and the preparation and provision of meeting agendas and summary
notes. As part of the Coordinator position, Kelly Ogawa has provided general coordination and lines of communication for
ongoing activities throughout the CWMA in multiple forms including: recommending specific meeting agenda topics; facilitating
discussions with Copermittees and RWQCB; and dissemination of information to watershed Copermittees. Kelly was
instrumental in facilitating meetings with the CWMA Copermittees and RWQCB staff to complete the Carlsbad WMA WQIP from
December 2015 through November 2016. While this was unexpected and unprecedented, the Team adjusted priorities and

budget to accomplish weekly meetings and deliverables on behalf of the CWMA Copermittees. The Team’s commitment to
coordinating efforts for the watershed led to a WQIP used as an example by RWQCB staff for development of other WQIP(s).
The Team will continue to deliver the same high-level service MOE has been providing for the past eleven years. Our approach
to the task is to maintain cost effective coordination. This begins with close coordination with the Lead Copermittee to set
meeting agendas and discuss pertinent issues for the CWMA Copermittees. Kelly will also communicate, for discussion with the
CWMA Copermittees, regional and statewide issues that MOE is aware of through our various experiences and exposure.
The Team is directly involved with other WMA groups, non-profit environmental groups, regulators and other stakeholders in
the region. Through this involvement and experience, the Team will, as appropriate, coordinate with these groups on behalf of
the CWMA Copermittees. Coordination may include correspondence, setting meetings, requests for review of CWMA
documents, or to simply share information and receive input.
The Team recognizes recent developments in the meeting procedures and group coordination and is prepared to provide
Coordinator services in compliance with the Brown Act. Adherence to meeting and communication requirements will be ensured
through close coordination with the CWMA Lead Copermittee as part of the monthly contract management meetings. MOE has
been active in current Brown Act meeting discussions and has a proven track record of being flexible to satisfy Copermittee-
needs to meet Brown Act requirements while the current Regional Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) is in place. Agendas
will be drafted in accordance with the Brown Act format and provided to the CWMA Lead Copermittee for posting by the Carlsbad
City Clerk prior to WQIP meetings (provided no later than the Thursday preceding the meeting date). Materials or draft
documents necessary for decisions at the WQIP meetings will also be provided in advance. Meeting action summaries will be
drafted detailing actions taken and provided to the CWMA Lead for review and posting. Additionally, the Team can assist the
CWMA Lead and attorney in regional discussions for changes to the MOU Brown Act language or establishment of different
workgroup meeting formats.
As the CWMA Coordinator, Kelly will also ensure the Carlsbad Watershed page on the Regional Clearinghouse is up to date
and make requested changes or updates to the website. This effort also includes checking links monthly for the Carlsbad
Watershed webpage of the Regional Clearinghouse to ensure the links are working. If a link is broken, the Team will notify the
respective Copermittee(s) for correction.
Sub-task Deliverables include, at a minimum:
1. Meeting agendas distributed in accordance with Brown Act requirements;
2. Meeting action summaries that document actions taken by the CWMA Copermittees provided within one week of
meetings or in accordance with Brown Act requirements;
3. Technical materials and draft documents for review and discussion by the group; and
4. Review of links on Regional Clearinghouse Carlsbad Watershed webpage, with notifications of broken links when
applicable.
3.3 RFP Task 3: Miscellaneous Activities
The Team proposes that the potential services to be provided under this task are performed on an as-needed basis with a not
to exceed amount. Over the past few years, there have been tasks and items requested by the RWQCB that have resulted in
unanticipated work items for the CWMA Copermittees. While the tasks could not be predicted, they were necessary to complete
for the RWQCB’s interpretation of compliance. As demonstrated through our project experience and resumes, our Team
provides the necessary expertise and resources to successfully develop, coordinate, or implement any work efforts that may be
necessary as part of this project. The work efforts that may be provided under this task can include a variety of options, including:
Data coordination and/or analysis;
Rigorous data analysis and/or modeling;
Review and assessment of third party studies or
reports;
Background research;
Guest speaker coordination;
Watershed research;
Coordinating comments from the CWMA for the
MS4 Permit Reissuance Process;
TMDL requirements;
Response(s) to RWQCB correspondence or
requests;
Preparation for regulatory hearings;
Representation at regional meetings;
Presentations;
WQIP updates and associated tasks (public
process, RWQCB coordination); and
Compilation and submittal of 303(d) delisting
applications and/or basin plan amendments.
Carlsbad Watershed Management Area Water Quality Improvement Plan Coordinator and Annual Report Proposal May 4, 2018
10
If the CWMA Copermittees deem it necessary for the Team to provide miscellaneous activity services, the Team will prepare a
brief scope and fee estimate to be approved prior to initiating work. Apart from developing rigorous analysis or modeling, the
proposed not to exceed amount for Task 3 services is $20,000.
Due to the complexity of scoping rigorous analysis or modeling efforts, the Team requests that if CWMA Copermittees elect to
perform a rigorous analysis or modeling, a more detailed process ensues to adequately scope and prepare cost estimates for
such efforts. Our Team is capable and prepared to meet with the CWMA Copermittees to further discuss these options.
3.4 RFP Task 4: Contract Completion
The MOE Team will provide, as requested and at the conclusion of the contract, electronic versions of the formal documents
developed for the CWMA Copermittees. The documents will be provided in both PDF and original format, e.g., Microsoft Excel,
Microsoft Word, AutoCAD, ArcGIS, etc.
4 Knowledge and Understanding of Local Environment and Issues
The MOE Team consists of 100% local service providers whose aim is to provide timely and responsive services to the CWMA
Lead Copermittee and staff of the CWMA jurisdictions. The Team’s project manager, Kelly Ogawa, has been interfacing and
providing services to jurisdictions of the CWMA for over nine years. This includes providing direct services to urban runoff
programs, and coordinating and providing services to planning development and engineering departments throughout the
CWMA. This broad spectrum of services provided over the years has given MOE a tremendous understanding of the local
environment and issues.
Kelly, during her time as a municipal employee, led watershed efforts for the entire region. This experience brings a perspective
that other consulting firms do not have. Being on the “inside” gives Kelly insights into challenges and opportunities that impact
Copermittees. This experience also brings a sensitivity to what the CWMA Copermittees face on a day-to-day basis. The
experience of preparing for presentations and meetings with and responding to elected officials, jurisdictional executive
management, and a wide variety of jurisdictional departments provides the basis for this sensitivity.
Since 2013, MOE has led the efforts of developing the Carlsbad WQIP and the 2018 Carlsbad WQIP Annual Report. Through
coordination with CWMA Copermittees, MOE has developed strong working relationships with staff and gained an
understanding of individual Copermittee needs. This local experience and knowledge of local government operations and
management decisions that will influence contract tasks is invaluable for WQIP coordination efforts and Annual Report
development.
The Team has experience in working with the local stakeholders, such as the Carlsbad Watershed Network (CWN), and RWQCB
staff assigned to the CWMA. Given the increased role of the RWQCB in the WQIP, this familiarity and experience is an asset to
assist the CWMA Copermittees with communication and coordination with the RWQCB as demonstrated over the course of the
current Watershed Coordinator contract.
In addition to the services Kelly and MOE have provided directly, our local Team has extensive knowledge of CWMA water
quality and watershed management. The Team has been working in the Carlsbad watershed on water quality and watershed
management issues for over 15 years. Our knowledge of the water quality issues is based on compiling, interpreting and
presenting receiving water and MS4 outfall data from the Carlsbad Watershed through the Regional Monitoring Program, CWMA
monitoring, Lagoon TMDL monitoring, and Lake San Marcos monitoring. This historical and current knowledge of watershed
water quality is instrumental in interpreting and assessing water quality data, presentation of information, and discussions with
stakeholders or the RWQCB. It is beneficial for the analysis and interpretation of data or information that may be requested to
be reviewed by the RWQCB. Our Team can address these items for the CWMA in an efficient and effective manner based on
a working knowledge of the Carlsbad Watershed and specific HA conditions that drive water quality priorities.
The MOE Team has a robust understanding of local laws, ordinances, regulations, policies, requirements and permitting. MOE
has drafted ordinances for local jurisdictional programs and led (as a Copermittee representative) Permit re-issuance efforts for
the San Diego region during the 2013 Permit renewal process. The Team is abreast of federal and state programs that may
impact local efforts and participates in a multitude of groups and organizations that provide insight to local programs.
5 Project Organization and Key Personnel
The MOE Team is comprised of local technical experts in the field of urban runoff. All team members were selected for their
knowledge of existing programs as well as their ability to be innovative. The organizational structure of the Team that will be
providing professional services is provided below in Figure 2. The proposed staffing classifications of key personnel are identified

The Client Communications Plan details the level of effort needed to ensure clear communication between the City of Carlsbad,
CWMA Copermittees, MOE, and our subconsultant involved in the project. This Plan outlines contact information for all parties,
and enables the project to progress with minimal issues, both technically and contractually. Communication involves relaying
information on budget, schedule, and deliverables and promotes efficiency and effectiveness. Kelly Ogawa will be the lead
communicator with the City of Carlsbad, CWMA Copermittees and our subconsultant; all communication will be directed through
her unless otherwise noted or directed. Due to several entities being involved in this project, this eliminates the potential for
miscommunication. Kelly Ogawa will provide the City of Carlsbad and CWMA Copermittees with updates of timelines and
milestones to ensure that the project is completed according to plan as well as to keep staff apprised of document status.
Mikhail Ogawa will prepare the Quality Control Plan (which forms part of the Project Control Plan), for all tasks related to this
RFP, and he will ensure it is executed accordingly. At a minimum, the Quality Control Plan will contain the following elements:
The level of review that will be applied to each review;
The project milestones that will require a QC review;
The type of reviews that need to be performed; and
A QC Review Log – used to track and document the entire QA/QC process.

Mr. Burns is the Project Manager for the development of a Study Plan that includes a conceptual model for
the complete system from the reservoir through the watershed. This project was driven by direction from
the Regional Board that nutrient impairments within the reservoir should be addressed in addition to the
highest priority water quality conditions stated in the San Dieguito WMA Water Quality Improvement Plan.
The development of the Study Plan included development of a conceptual model providing a high-level
assessment of potential nutrient transport pathways, a data gap analysis to assess previous and ongoing
monitoring and future data needs as indicated by the conceptual model, and recommended monitoring to
address data gaps. The long-term goal of this project is the development of a functional model that assesses
nutrient transport from MS4s, direct and indirect tributaries, wetland function upstream of the reservoir,
and internal cycling within the reservoir.
Weir Design, Installation, and Low-Flow Monitoring, San Diego, CA
Mr. Burns is the Project Manager for this study that measures dry weather flows at 30 sites throughout San
Diego County for a five-month period. To accurately measure the very low flows, Mr. Burns and his team
designed custom v-notch weirs to install inside pipes, on headwalls, and in channels. Water level loggers
are installed behind the weirs and used to calculate flows through the weir. Field measurements are made
throughout the monitoring to provide calibration points for final flow calculations. Mr. Burns and his team
addressed concerns from County Flood Control of obstructions to flow in the MS4, by developing
“breakaway” weirs. These weirs are held in-place by rated wires that break under specified loads. The wires
were selected to break under water pressure loads experienced during high flow events (i.e., when the weir
is over-topped). The current program is expanding to include telemetry at key sites, to allow for high flow
alerts and near-real-time tracking to support a concurrent residential land use inspection program
(conducted by Wood under separate TO).
Carlsbad Hydrologic Unit Lagoon TMDL Monitoring, City of Encinitas, CA
Associate Scientist: Water quality monitoring, data assessment and reporting for the Lagoon TMDL
Monitoring Program at four Carlsbad HU lagoons, Buena Vista Lagoon, Loma Alta Slough, Agua Hedionda
Lagoon, and San Elijo Lagoon. Analyzed the continuous flow data collected from mass emission stations,
index and transect data collected within the lagoons, and ocean inlet data. Worked with Stakeholders in a
collaborative effort to develop the Final Monitoring Report evaluating patterns in bacteria, nutrients, and
sediment data during wet and dry weather conditions.
