TITLE- d RATIFICATION OF APPROVAL OF AN
AGREEMENT WITH OGDEN ENVIRONMENTAL AND
ENERGY SERVICES FOR CANNON ROAD WEST
BIOLOGICAL AND NOISE MONITORING, PROJECT NO. 3184
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
DEPT. HD.” k7.f
CITY ATTY. & ’
Adopt Resolution No. 9 ?-Jr 5 approving an agreement with Ogden Environmental and Energy Services, Inc., for Cannon Road West Biological and Noise Monitoring, Project No. 3184.
ITEM EXPLANATION:
This project involves the construction of Cannon Road West from its easterly terminus to El Camino Real. Features of the construction include the grading of the roadway, construction of the drainage system, construction of sewer, water, recycled water, underground utilities for San Diego Gas and Electric, streetlights, a signal, an enhanced median and three bridges. Construction is expected to take two years. The project also includes designing a revegetation plan for the temporary impacts to the wetlands that occur during the construction of the project.
Three environmental consulting firms responded to the Request for Qualifications and were evaluated based on their experience and expertise in biological, archaeological and paleontological monitoring on similar types of projects. The three firms were Ogden Environmental and Energy Services Company, Inc., P & D Technologies, and Mooney and Associates. Ogden Environmental and Energy Services was determined to be the most qualified consultant, by a four-person selection committee composed of City staff.
City staff negotiated a scope of work with Ogden Environmental and Energy Services, Inc. Cannon Road West has been broken into four discrete phases. Cannon Road Reach 1 includes grading and surface improvements to the Macario Canyon Bridge and grading of the easterly embankment for the Macario Canyon Bridge. The Cannon Road Macario Canyon Bridge project is a public works project that includes the construction of the Macario Canyon Bridge. Cannon Road Reach 2, Segment 1 is the construction of El Camino Real widening at the intersection with Cannon Road and Cannon Road from El Camino Real to Station 99. Cannon Road Reach 2 Segment 2 is the completion of Cannon Road from Station 99 to the Macario Canyon Bridge.
All projects, except the public works project, are either currently under construction, under private contract or will be under construction by private contract in the near-term. The scheduling of the projects was such that a construction schedule for the entire project was not available at the time of the start of the work. The City and Ogden agreed to enter into a smaller contract pending the approval or availability of the construction schedules. During this process a series of draft contracts exchanged hands between the City and Ogden and were not executed correctly or contract language changed and new contracts were required. The Contractor initiated work without the benefit of an executed agreement. Personnel on the project changed and insurance requirements were found unacceptable by the Contractor. The Contractor has requested that now that schedules are available, all work for the project fall under a single agreement. Task 0 represents the work completed to date. Tasks l-7 represent the work to be done.
The Contractor requested and received approval from the City Attorney to have a one-year insurance tail as opposed to the standard five-year. It was determined that the nature of the work is such that the one-year tail is sufficient to protect the City. The scope of work is verification of environmental permit compliance and production of reports indicating environmental permit compliance.
Page 2 of Agenda Bill No. 75: asg
FISCAL IMPACT:
The proposed budget for the monitoring services is $148,293. Sufficient funds are available for this work in the project account.
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT:
The Planning Director has determined that the requested action is consistent with prior CEQA
review. The project was reviewed in the Cannon Road Reach 1 Environmental Impact Report,
the Kelly Ranch Environmental Impact Report and the Mitigated Negative Declaration for Reach 2. Significant environmental impacts identified by those CEQA documents were
determined to be mitigable to levels of less than significant. Permits from the resource agencies have been received.

SCOPE OF WORK
CARLSBAD CANNON ROAD WEST
BIOLOGICAL AND NOISE MONITORING
CARLSBAD, CALIFORNIA
Ogden Environmental and Energy Services Company (Ogden) shall provide services for the
City of Carlsbad associated with the extension of Cannon Road between LEG0 Drive and
El Camino Real in the City of Carlsbad, California. The purpose of this Scope of Work is
outlined in the following tasks:
Task 1: Bioloaical Construction Monitorinq
Ogden shall provide weekly biological construction monitoring visits and submit monthly
construction monitoring letter reports in accordance with agency permit and agreement
requirements. The purpose of the biological construction monitoring visits is to ensure all
permit conditions are followed, construction impacts remain within the permitted construction
corridor, and all erosion control and environmental fencing remains in good repair throughout
the construction period.
The scope for this task assumes construction will continue until May 16, 2000, as shown in the
construction schedule prepared by Hazard Construction Company, dated November 23, 1998,
and provided to Ogden by the City of Carlsbad.
Task 2: Paleontolosical Monitoring
Ogden shall provide paleontological monitoring for the slope associated with the Macario Canyon surcharge fill. Ogden has retained Petra Paleontology as a subcontractor to
provide these services. Onsite paleontological monitoring shall be completed, and invertebrate
fossils located at the site on January 28, 1999, will be cleaned, identified, and prepared for
storage at the San Diego Natural History Museum. Two copies of the final report, including an
itemized taxa list, will be submitted to the City of Carlsbad. A copy of the final report will also be
included with the invertebrate fossils when they are sent to the museum. Curation fees charged
by the San Diego Natural History Museum of up to $200 are included in this Scope of Work and Cost Proposal.
Task 3: Acoustical Monitoring
Ogden shall provide acoustical monitoring along Cannon Road West Reach II so work may
continue during the bird breeding season in 1999. Ogden has retained Investigative Science and Engineering (ISE) as a subcontractor to provide these services. ISE will perform weekly
acoustical monitoring of the Reach II alignment for the period beginning March 1, 1999 and
concluding September 1, 1999. Data will be simultaneously logged at several points along the
Cannon Road West Reach II alignment directly adjacent to the endangered species habitat.
rev. 2/26/99
-14 -
Based on these findings, ISE will recommend mitigation measures which are consistent with the
U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS), noise monitoring plan that will allow work to continue.
All measurements will be conducted using integrating sound level meters, which meet the
American National Standards Institute (ANSI) requirements for a Type 2 meter. The sound
metrics gathered will be consistent with those identified in the City of Carlsbad Draft Noise
Guidelines Manual.
All recorded data will be logged with annotations regarding date of test, time of test, site
location (non-differential GPS mark), ambient conditions, temperature, wind speed and
direction, and observer comments.
ISE will provide a stand-alone summary report to Ogden indicating construction noise findings
and implemented mitigation measures. The report will be generated each month and Ogden
will include it with the monthly biological construction monitoring letter to the resource agencies.
As part of this task, ISE will attend up to two meetings of four hours each to discuss findings
and develop an agreeable noise mitigation monitoring plan.
Task 4: Aaencv Consultations
The City of Carlsbad intends to ask the agencies to allow work beyond the stated March 1
deadline for noise restrictions related to the breeding season for least Bell’s vireo and willow
flycatcher. Ogden shall provide assistance to help the City amend its permits and agreements with the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS), U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (ACOE), California Department of Fish and Game (CDFG), and California Coastal Commission (CCC).
Ogden shall prepare letters or other text to support the time extension, talk to the agencies by
phone, and attend up to two meetings in support of this task. Attendance at a CCC meeting
outside San Diego County is not included in the budget for this task, and would require authorization by the City as an additional work item.
Task 5: Bird Monitoring
Ogden shall provide bird monitoring to determine when least Bell’s vireo and/or southwestern
willow flycatcher arrive at the project site in 1999. Ogden’s biologist shall visit the project site
every weekday morning starting Monday, March 1, 1999, and continue until the birds arrive or
through March 12, 1999, whichever comes first. Ogden’s biologist shall arrive at the site each
morning about dawn and search for least Bell’s vireo and southwestern willow flycatcher. The biologist shall then prepare and deliver a handwritten report on that day’s findings to the City’s
project construction trailer and the USFWS field office in Carlsbad by 9:00 a.m. each morning.
Daily bird monitoring shall cease once the bird’s return to project habitat has been confirmed.
As soon as least Bell’s vireo and/or southwestern willow flycatcher have been confirmed to be
present in the habitat adjacent to the Cannon Road West Reach II alignment, or March 12, whichever comes first, Ogden shall provide weekly bird monitoring along Reach II until
September 1, 1999. This weekly bird monitoring shall consist of documenting least Bell’s vireo
and/or southwestern willow flycatcher presence, location, and any nesting in the project vicinity.
-15 -
rev. 2/26/99
The bird monitor shall also document whether least Bell’s vireo and/or southwestern willow
flycatcher successfully fledge nestlings.
Ogden’s bird monitor shall prepare a brief monthly report discussing bird monitoring. This report
will be incorporated into Ogden’s monthly biological construction monitoring letter to the
resource agencies. At the end of the bird monitoring period on September 1, 1999, Ogden’s biologist shall prepare a final brief written report with relevant graphics for the City, and submit it
to the agencies.
Task 6: Reveqetation Plan for Temporarv lmoacts
Ogden shall prepare a revegetation plan for temporary construction impact areas associated
with the Cannon Road West project. This plan will be submitted to ACOE and CDFG for their
approval, as called for in the project’s permits and agreements. Mitigation for permanent
impacts is not part of this project as the City has already implemented this program.
Task 7: Five-Year Bioloqical Monitorinq Proqram for Temporatv Construction Impact Areas
Ogden shall provide five years of horticultural and botanical monitoring for temporary
construction impact areas associated with the Cannon Road West Project. In years one and
two, Ogden shall inspect the mitigation site monthly. In year three, Ogden shall inspect the
mitigation site six times, and in years four and five, Ogden shall inspect the mitigation site four
times. Ogden shall provide direction to the landscape maintenance contractor at or after these
monitoring visits, as needed. Ogden shall prepare letter reports after each monitoring visit and submit them to the City of Carlsbad and landscape maintenance contractor.
Ogden shall establish permanent line intercept transects in the revegetation area and collect botanical data for the first time towards the end of the first year. Data collected will include total
cover and cover by species. Height data for trees will be collected as necessary. Using the
established transects, Ogden shall collect botanical data towards the end of each year. Ogden
shall also make a count of dead container plants and determine if replacements are necessary.
Ogden shall analyze this data and include it in each of the five annual reports required for the project. The annual reports shall describe both horticultural and botanical monitoring, compare
the project with its established success criteria, and make remedial recommendations, if
needed, to help meet success standards. The annual reports shall be submitted to the
agencies each year for five years.
Assuming the project meets all of its success criteria, Ogden shall recommend in the final
annual report that the project be accepted by the agencies as successful, because it has met its
success criteria. If conditions warrant and the project attains early success, Ogden will attempt
to gain early release from the five year maintenance and monitoring program. Ogden shall
attend either an office or site meeting with the agencies if they so desire, to help secure agency
approval of the mitigation area.
