CA Review k-G-- ~ CITY COUNCIL • Staff Report Meeting Date: To: From: Staff Contact: Subject: July 23, 2019 Mayor and City Council Scott Chadwick, City Manager Kyle Lancaster, Interim Parks & Recreation Director kyle.lancaster@carlsbadca.gov or 760-434-2941 Approving contract documents, plans and specifications for the Stagecoach Community Park Synthetic Turf Replacement Project and authorizing the City Clerk to advertise the project for public bids Recommended Action Adopt a Resolution approving the contract documents, plans and specifications for the Stagecoach Community Park Synthetic Turf Replacement Project (CIP Project No. 47421) and authorizing City Clerk to advertise the project for public bids. Executive Summary On January 29, 2019, the City Council received a staff report recommending the adoption of a resolution approving the contract documents, plans and specifications for the Stagecoach Community Park Synthetic Turf Replacement Project, and authorizing the City Clerk to advertise the project for public bids. The City Council also received a resident's comment and handout (Exhibit 1) for the item to be rescheduled, to acknowledge and discuss various public safety concerns related to synthetic turf, particularly to the infill material. After posing a series of questions to staff and its consultant, the City Council approved a minute motion to continue the item and directed staff to return with a report on the pros and cons of alternative turf options. Discussion Background The existing synthetic turf on the two multi-purpose fields at Stagecoach Community Park is nearly 14 years old and is in need of replacement due to age and wear. The existing synthetic turf has surpassed its eight-year warranty period and its expected useful life. The significant use of these multi-purpose fields over the nearly 14-year period has resulted in corresponding splits/tears and diminished overall quality of the synthetic turf. On January 29, 2019, the City Council received a staff report that recommended adoption of a resolution approving the contract documents, plans and specifications for the Stagecoach Community Park Synthetic Turf Replacement Project (CIP Project No. 47421), and authorization for the City Clerk to advertise the project for public bids. The replacement project included removal of the existing synthetic turf with a sand and non-coated crumb rubber granulate infill from the multi-purpose fields; minor re-grading and re-compaction of the subsurface; and installation of high-quality synthetic turf with a sand and coated crumb rubber granulate infill. July 23, 2019 Item #10 Page 1 of 213 Both the specified synthetic turf and infill material were to be warrantied for a period of eight years and were intended to meet the community's usage demand at this park for a full decade. The synthetic turf specified was a heavyweight, tufted product (i.e., Astroturf-Game Day 3D Extreme 52, Sprinturf-DFE 52 Nylon Thatch, or equal). The infill specified was a base of sand, with an overlay of crumb rubber granulate (i.e., recycled from automotive tires) coated with a green acrylic and then a clear polyurethane. According to the Sports Turf Managers Association, the application of such coated crumb rubber granulate can reduce a field's surface temperature by three to ten degrees, over traditional uncoated crumb rubber granulate. The coated crumb rubber granulate also retains like resiliency performance characteristics to that of traditional uncoated crumb rubber granulate within athletic fields. The application of coated crumb rubber granulate represents an advancement of technology in synthetic turf systems. Under normal conditions, there is little potential for direct exposure of patrons to the crumb rubber. Other public agencies in California have previously applied the coated crumb rubber granulate infill to their synthetic turf field projects. Its effectiveness at Stagecoach Community Park was to be monitored, for possible future application to other synthetic turf field projects in the Carlsbad parks inventory. This agenda item was pulled from the City Council Consent Calendar for comment by a member of the community. The community member expressed concern over potential health impacts from the specified infill material -i.e., an acrylic and polyurethane coated crumb rubber granulate. The City Council then asked questions of staff regarding synthetic turf and its infill alternatives, as well as the application of a "precautionary principle" in specifying materials for the project. Staff and its consultant (Bob Harding, Principal with DA Hogan and Associates) responded to those questions and provided a summary of previous and ongoing studies on synthetic turf and infill materials -particularly the crumb rubber infill material. Staff additionally advised that the project could be postponed for a short period, at the City Council's discretion, during which time additional information on alternative materials could be compiled. By minute motion, the City Council continued the item and directed staff to return with a report on the pros and cons of alternative turf options. Health Considerations Staff and Mr. Harding are aware of studies associated with the use of crumb rubber granulate as an infill material in synthetic turf fields. Provided below is a synopsis of the findings from those studies, as offered by Mr. Harding, who has forty years of experience as a practicing landscape architect, over thirty-five years of which have been in athletic field design and construction monitoring. His portfolio includes the design of over 150 athletic fields, including the City of Carlsbad's five synthetic turf field replacements -i.e., Poinsettia, Aviara, Pine Avenue and Stagecoach Community Parks -between 2013 and 2018. The predominant infill material used with synthetic turf systems continues to be uncoated crumb rubber granules. This infill material is used on the overwhelming majority of the 1000 +/-synthetic turf fields that are installed each year. The crumb rubber, also known as SBR (Styrene-Butadiene Rubber), is typically derived from tread material removed and granulated from recycled automotive tires. There has been an July 23, 2019 Item #10 Page 2 of 213 ongoing national debate about the possibility that exposure to SBR products poses a health risk, most often specifically a cancer risk. Much of the summary of scientific studies leads one to understand there is no causal link between the use of SBR products and increased health risks specific to cancers. There are many studies and news reports regarding purported health risks, however, those ultimately tend to be opinion based and/or anecdotal in nature. Based on independent studies commissioned to measure heavy metals as well as PAH levels, risks involved with SBR as an infill material trend to the less than 1:1,000,000 chance of increased health risks, which is classified as "de- minimus" (medically negligible). [Teter Engineering, Analysis of Crumb Rubber Infill, Sprinturf, March 7, 2015] In 2015, an industrial toxicologist was retained by a client of DA Hogan & Associates to evaluate current published literature regarding the ongoing issue of crumb rubber infill. After a review of 32 study documents, the conclusion was: "Based on the scientific research, there is neither the dose, nor the exposure route, to indicate a health hazard for artificial turf /crumb rubber field users. All studies acknowledge that additional data is needed to more fully assess potential exposures and possible health risks associated with the use of artificial turf fields with crumb rubber. In the meantime, leading public health agencies, such as the EPA and Consumer Product Safety Commission, are supporting continued use of artificial turf fields with crumb rubber." [Elizabeth Black, EMP Consulting, LLC, April 14, 2015] The US Environmental Protection Agency and the Consumer Products & Safety Commission have both been tasked with performing a comprehensive review of existing studies, identifying gaps in our collective knowledge, and directing research in those current areas lacking in data. No such comprehensive study has yet been published. Anticipated release dates of preliminary findings have continually been pushed out since the original target date of December 2017. Synthetic Turf and Natural Grass Comparison The following summary reviews the cost and operational considerations for synthetic turf and natural grass surfacing systems, both generally and specific to the environment and program at Stagecoach Community Park. For the purposes of comparison, the options include: 1. Removal and replacement of the existing synthetic turf surface, utilizing the permeable aggregate base and a coated crumb rubber infill material, as initially recommended by staff. The current estimated construction cost for this project is $1,588,663. This estimate includes a premium of $149,064 for the application of coated crumb rubber granulate over traditional uncoated crumb rubber granulate within these fields; or 2. Removal of the existing synthetic turf and aggregate base, converting the field surface to a vertically drained, sand based natural turf field. The initial construction cost for this field incudes removal of the surface, 12" depth aggregate/soil, replacement of the existing field drainage system, import and placement of an aggregate drainage layer, 9" July 23, 2019 Item #10 Page 3 of 213 depth root zone sand, irrigation system (using reclaimed water) and natural turf sod. The current estimated construction cost for this project is $2,083,289. The overall cost of the synthetic turf field during a 20-year period will be approximately $1,000,000 less than the overall cost of a sand based natural grass field. The potential available hours of use for the synthetic turf field, however, will be at least two times greater annually than the sand based natural grass field. Note: This study is site specific. For typical outdoor recreational fields, the total cost of building and maintaining synthetic turf exceeds that of natural grass until approximately year 20. In this case, the base of the fields was constructed nearly 14 years ago, and the residual value from that initial construction is not reflected. For ease of discussion, all opinions of value are 2019 dollars and are "line item only, labor, equipment, and materials". Where a range is given for a component, the higher value is aggregated. It is assumed the fields, to accommodate multiple sports, will be 185,750 sf. 1. Synthetic Turf a. Initial capital investment of approximately $8.55/sf total cost for coated crumb rubber infilled synthetic turf, installed over existing permeable aggregate base. i. Surface In general terms, 2" lnfilled synthetic turf should cost between $4.00 and $4.25/sf installed over a prepared base. ii. Base or Foundation Assumed the continued use of the existing permeable aggregate base. b. Maintenance costs for infilled synthetic turf i. Depending upon inlaid or painted field markings, cost will vary depending on the turn-around expectations of the program. Assumed a basic level of maintenance, representing approximately 10 hours per week. The 10 hours represent grooming, debris clean up, brushing etc. to complete typical maintenance functions recommended by tu rf vendors. ii. Materials related to infill maintenance would be furnished and installed by the synthetic turf vendor. c. Intangibles i. The amount of field use available for general use and rental is essentially unlimited given the current sports field lighting system. In general, and based upon typical maintenance, environmental and other intangible conditions, a synthetic turf field can support greater than 750 "high quality uses" during a year, with essentially equal playing conditions during those times. A "high quality use" is defined as a 4-hour practice or competition. This relates to approximately 3,000 hours of use during the year {365 days/8 hrs. per day of use), which is relatively conservative. When compared to a sand based natural turf, this is approximately 2.5-4 times the amount of use potential. July 23, 2019 Item #10 Page 4 of 213 2. Natural Grass a. Initial capital investment of approximately $5.00-$15.00/sf total cost. There are many variations of natural grass. Recommend and assume a vertically draining, irrigated, under-drained sand based natural grass system. Assumed a 9" depth of root zone sand and 3" depth of drainage aggregate for a total section of 12". This is a typical depth of root zone sand, given the anticipated uses and periods. i. Surface -Recommend initially a fairly thin cut of hybrid Bermuda Grass. Following installation of the sod, expect a series of core-aerification and top-dressing operations will be required to insure the integrity of infiltration properties designed into the profile. ii. Base -Assume 9" of root zone sand over the site soils. Assume this mix will be installed in one 9" lift, with a 90-10 blend of sand and an approved organic material i.e., milled sedge peat or similar. b. Maintenance Costs i. For a high-quality natural grass field of this size, basic maintenance costs are anticipated to be approximately $80,000/yr. This figure represents an average of 30 hours of maintenance per week throughout the year. Maintenance work includes mowing, edging, fertilizing, aeration and irrigation repair. Materials include fertilizer, seed, sprinklers, paint and other surface treatments, such as pesticides (organic and synthetic). ii. The natural grass is to be heavily renovated at least annually (i.e., drop- cut, verti-cut, de-thatched, aerated, amended, leveled, fertilized, over- seeded/sodded and top-dressed. iii. Water use should be expected to be at average 1" per week throughout the year -more intensive in the summer and less intensive during the winter. The irrigation of the fields would utilize reclaimed water sources. c. Intangibles i. The amount of field uses available for unscheduled and rental is similar to that of the synthetic turf field given existing sports field lighting on site. However, there is a maximum amount of use a natural grass field can withstand during a calendar year without impacting the quality of play. In general, and based upon typical maintenance, environmental and other intangible conditions, a .sand based natural turf field can support approximately 200-300 "high quality uses" during a year, with essentially equal playing conditions during those times. A "high quality use" is equivalent to a 4-hour practice or competition. This relates to approximately 800-1200 hours of use during the year. ii. As a live system, natural grass fields are subject to a pattern of dormancy and vigorous growth. Damage during dormancy does not self-repair and so accumulates over time. Typical dormant seasons are late-October to late-March. The fields will need to be closed to the public for approximately one month annually in order to address the above described heavy renovation. July 23, 2019 Item #10 Page 5 of 213 iii. Other scheduling conflicts may be present. Turf paint will need to be used to indicate field markings. Painting the blades of the grass is inherently bad for growth, but it is considered necessary. Depending on the seasonal uses, paint may be required through the winter, without opportunities for photosynthesis. iv. Overall usage of the field surface will need to be reduced considerably in order to maintain the standards of the primary user. With a natural grass surface, priority will need to be shifted to maintaining the quality of the surface, from the quantity of hours of service provided when compared to a synthetic turf system. Synthetic Turf Infill Material Options D.A. Hogan & Associates' understanding of and experience with synthetic turf infill material options is summarized below, as commonly requested by clients for their specific situational consideration. All of these material options are typically used in conjunction with sand infill material. The sand costs are fairly consistent with each option and are therefore not accounted for in the pricing summaries. SBR (Crumb Rubber) Infill: There have been innumerable studies and documents from various sources and agencies relative to SBR infill material and synthetic turf. As noted in most of these studies, there are heavy metals and other known carcinogenic materials such as PAHs (polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons) in the chemical make-up of SBR. These materials are, however, essentially locked into the SBR and are typically not considered as being bio-available. With that noted, identifying a reliable and proven source for any infill material is critical. For many years, the standard has been to allow only passenger vehicle and truck tires manufactured in North America to be used as the raw material ("feed stock") for the granulating process when used in synthetic turf infill. This standard is intended to ensure that only tires produced under stricter environmental standards make it into the finished product.· There has been a significant amount of study and experience with the SBR infill material. The alternative infill materials are typically less proven and have not been studied as extensively as the SBR infill material. As an example, nine fields installed for the Los Angeles Unified School District (which was referenced in reporting by NBC News as not allowing SBR) in 2010 used TPE infill (see below) manufactured in Asia that has melted or clumped together. SBR Pros: 1. SBR infill is durable and has a proven track record of long-term success 2. SBR infill materials provide for softer footing characteristics and are consistent with the majority of other existing synthetic turf playing fields 3. SBR infill has relatively low maintenance requirements 4. SBR resiliency does not mandate use of a supplemental pad system 5. SBR infill provides the lowest material installation cost July 23, 2019 Item #10 Page 6 of 213 SBR Cons: 1. SBR infill has perceived health and water quality concerns 2. SBR infill can increase already high surface temperatures during hot and sunny weather 3. SBR infill emits some odor with a newly installed field surface SBR Costs: Unit Cost: $0.15 per lb. Installation Rate: 2.4 -2.8 lb./sf (for 2" pile height) Cost per sf: $0.36 -$0.42 Cost for 185,750 sf field : $72,443 (average) Coated SBR (Crumb Rubber) Infill: This infill material includes use of SBR granulate that is first coated with an acrylic colorant and then coated with a polyurethane exterior. The acrylic colorant allows for the granules to be green, similar to the synthetic turf fiber, while the polyurethane exterior remains clear. Combined, the coating restricts the potential direct exposure of the rubber to patrons' skin. This material also retains the resilient performance characteristics of the SBR infill. Although time consuming, quality control on the uniformity of the coatings is needed prior to installation of the infill. In addition, durability of the coatings needs to be closely monitored. Guaranteeing this durability and ensuring the warrantor's follow-up service over the full eight- yearwarranty period, will require the city's due-diligence to thoroughly research the warrantor's track record and projected long-term viability. Coated SBR Pros: 1. Coated SBR infill is durable and has a proven track record of long-term success 2. Coated SBR infill materials for footing characteristics that are consistent with the majority of other existing synthetic turf playing fields that include SBR infill materials 3. Coated SBR infill has relatively low maintenance requirements 4. Coated SBR infill resiliency does not mandate use of a supplemental pad system 5. Surface temperatures are slightly reduced from temperatures of fields with black SBR 6. Coated SBR infill is relatively odor free 7. Reduction of perceived health and water quality concerns Coated SBR Cons: 1. It is still SBR at its core, with perceived health and water quality concerns 2. Coated SBR infill is a higher cost than standard SBR infill Coated SBR Costs: Unit Cost: $0.45 per lb. Installation Rate: 2.5 -2.8 lb./sf (for 2" pile height) Cost per sf: $1.125 -$1.26 Cost for 185,750 sf field:$ 221,507{average) Increase for 185,750 sf field above standard SBR: $149,064 (average) Total Estimated Project Increase: $149,064 (This infill material was, and remains, staff's recommended selection for the subject project.) July 23, 2019 Item #10 Page 7 of 213 Granular Cork Infill: This infill material consists of cork that has been granulated into material of similar size and shape to the SBR infill material typically used with synthetic turf surfacing. Generally, cork is grown in a relatively small region of southern Europe (Portugal and Spain specifically). While technically sustainable as a historically well-managed forest product harvested as the bark of the cork oak, its availability is limited and can create some market volatility in pricing. Between 2016 and 2018, there were shortages of this infill due to turf vendors "locking up" majority supply contracts and inhibiting competition to suppliers not able to maintain quality control at the source due to overwhelming demand. However, costs have fallen over the past two years. Since 2016, granular cork has proven to be the choice of the majority of DA Hogan and Associates clients as an alternative to SBR infill. In some respects, the footing conditions are firmer that those of SBR infill, thereby more closely replicating those of natural grass. While granular cork has some resiliency, it is insufficient to provide adequate shock absorption and requires the use of a supplemental pad system. The cost of the pad system is about $2.00 per sf. It is anticipated that the pad system can function for two to three turf installations/replacements. Granular Cork Pros: 1. Granular cork infill is a natural material that does not include the perceived health concerns associated with rubber materials 2. Granular cork infill materials reduce surface temperatures 3. Granular cork infill has relatively low short-term maintenance requirements (long term maintenance requirements are somewhat uncertain) 4. Granular cork is relatively odor free 5. Reduction of perceived water quality concerns Granular Cork Cons: 1. Granular cork infill has a less proven track record of long-term success 2. Granular cork infill is a higher cost than standard SBR infill 3. Granular cork infill resiliency requires use of a supplemental pad system 4. Granular cork infill on some fields has been hydrophobic during the first year, resulting in some floating of the top layer of material during heavy precipitation 5. Granular cork infill retains some moisture and can lock together during frozen conditions resulting in firmer than desired footing conditions Granular Cork Costs (with supplemental pad system): Unit costs and installation rates will vary based on the density of the cork available. There are multiple densities of cork. The volume and shipping costs of the cork will resultantly vary depending upon the density available at the time of the project. Cost per sf: $1.25 -$1.45 Cost for 185,750 sf field: $250,763 (average) Increase for 185,750 sf field above standard SBR: $178,320 Increase for 185,750 sf field for supplemental pad: $371,500 Total Estimated Project Increase: $549,820 July 23, 2019 Item #10 Page 8 of 213 TPE Infill: TPE is an acronym for Thermo Plastic Elastomer. This infill material has been used more extensively in Europe, but it has also been used on a number of fields in North America. DA Hogan and Associates' understanding is that this material does not contain any chemicals or substances that are on the State of California Proposition 65 list of know carcinogenic materials. This material is green or tan in color and will typically result in somewhat lower field surface temperatures during periods of warm or hot weather. This material is expensive, but it can be re-used on future turf replacements. As the TPE material is resilient, it does not require any special maintenance considerations. This infill has been installed in Europe for several years without any signs of significant deterioration. As the cost of this infill is quite high, it is most often installed with a turf system with a shorter pile height and a supplemental pad or with a resilient underlayment. As noted above, using a reliable source for this material is critical. Nine ofthe fields installed for the Los Angeles Unified School District and a number of others that used TPE infill manufactured in Asia have failed. With high surface temperatures, the TPE infill melted and clumped together. TPE Pros: 1. TPE infill chemical components are known and controlled 2. TPE infill provides for footing characteristics that are consistent with the majority of other existing synthetic turf playing fields that include SBR infill materials 3. TPE infill has relatively low maintenance requirements 4. Surface temperatures are slightly reduced from temperatures of fields with black SBR 5. TPE infill is odor free TPE Cons: 1. TPE infill is a significantly higher cost than standard SBR infill 2. If TPE is not properly sourced, it can fail TPE Costs (with supplemental pad system): Unit Cost: $1.15 per lb. Installation Rate: 1. 75 lb./sf (for 2" pile height) Cost per sf: $3.45 Cost for 185,750 sf field: $640,838 Increase for 185,750 sf field above standard SRB: $568,395 Increase for 185,750 sf field for supplemental pad: $371,500 Total Estimated Project Increase: $939,895 EPDM Infill: EDPM is a manufactured rubber product typically used as the wearing course on running tracks as well as the colored fall protection areas below playground equipment. EPDM is an acronym for Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer. This infill material has been used more extensively in Europe, but it has also been used on a number of fields in North America. As the EPDM material is resilient, it does not require any special maintenance considerations. The material July 23, 2019 Item #10 Page 9 of 213 has been installed in Europe for several years without any signs of significant deterioration. As the cost of this infill material is quite high, it is most often installed with a turf system with a shorter pile height and a supplemental pad or with a resilient underlayment. Current pricing for this infill material is approximately $1.00 per lb. or $0.85 per lb. more expensive than SBR infill. Again, there is less study and data on this material than the SBR infill material and given the high price point, TPE may offer a better option at a similar price point as the chemical composition is better documented and it is manufactured for these applications. EPDM Pros: 1. EDPM infill provides for footing characteristics that are consistent with the majority of other existing synthetic turf playing fields that include SBR infill 2. EDPM infill has relatively low maintenance requirements 3. Surface temperatures are slightly reduced from temperatures of fields with black SBR EPDM Cons: 1. EPDM infill is a significantly higher cost than standard SBR infill EPDM Costs (with supplemental pad system): Unit Cost: $1.00 per lb. Installation Rate: 1.75 lb./sf (for 2" pile height) Cost per sf: $1.75 Cost for 185,750 sf field: $325,063 Increase for 185,750 sf field above standard SRB: $252,620 Increase for 185,750 sf field for supplemental pad: $371,500 Total Estimated Project Increase: $624,120 Coconut-Based Organic Infill: Coconut-based organic infill is a granulated and fibrous plant-derived material that includes coconut husks, cork, and rice husks. Fields using this infill material should always include a supplemental pad system as the organic materials are less resilient and will compact over time. This infill material also requires regular irrigation during any periods of dry weather, even when fields are not in use. This can be achieved with either a booster pump and large radius sprinkler heads around the field perimeter or with portable traveling sprinkler heads. The traveling sprinkler heads require on site maintenance staff to connect, set up, and remove for each irrigation cycle. During summer months, it is anticipated that this would occur one to three times per week depending on temperature and humidity levels. Evaporation of the infill moisture provides a significant cooling effect resulting in surface temperatures that are consistent with natural grass fields. As this material compresses over time, additional infill needs to be added on an annual basis. The required quantities of additional infill material are significantly less that those associated with the initial installation but must be budgeted and planned for accordingly. July 23, 2019 Item #10 Page 10 of 213 Coconut-Based Organic Pros: 1. Coconut-based organic infill is a natural material that does not include the perceived health concerns associated with rubber materials 2. Coconut-based organic infill significantly reduces surface temperatures to those similar to a natural grass surface 3. Coconut-based organic infill provides footing characteristics that are more similar to those of a natural grass surface 4. Coconut-based organic infill is relatively odor free 5. Reduced water quality concerns Coconut-Based Organic Cons: 1. Coconut-based organic infill requires regular irrigation during dry weather conditions 2. Coconut-based organic infill requires annual top dressing with additional material 3. Coconut-based organic infill has less proven track record of long-term success in region 4. Coconut-based organic infill is a significantly higher cost than standard SBR infill 5. Coconut-based organic infill resiliency requires use of a supplemental pad system 6. Coconut-based organic infill retains moisture resulting in a damp surface which doesn't allow for sitting on the field surface without getting wet Coconut-Based Organic Costs (with supplemental pad system): Unit costs and installation rates will vary based on the density of the coconut available. There are multiple densities of coconut. The volume and shipping costs of the coconut will resultantly vary depending upon the density available at the time of the project. Cost per SF: $0.80 -$1.20 Cost for 185,750 sf field: $185,750 (average) Increase for 185,750 sf field above standard SBR: $113,307 (average) Increase for 185,750 sf field for supplemental pad: $371,500 Increase for 185,750 sf field for irrigation: $129,875 Total Estimated Project Increase: $614,682 Nike Grind Infill: Nike Grind infill includes ground rubber either from the residual material from the shoe manufacturing process or from recycled (used) shoes. This material is multi-colored but has similar physical characteristics (size, shape, and resiliency) to standard SBR infill material. Currently, this material is proprietary to Astroturf products and is typically in limited supply. Nike has detailed guidelines on the chemical composition of their products which should apply to the Nike Grind infill material. To date, however, there has been no independent testing provided for the composition of these materials. The Nike Grind infill material is multicolored. On recent installations, a green coating has been applied to the material which partially mitigates the unusual appearance. As the Nike Grind material is resilient, it does not require any special maintenance considerations. The material has been used for many years on baseball infields without any signs of significant deterioration. The material does appear to lose some of its resiliency over time at the surface of the infill profile perhaps through UV exposure. As the cost of this infill July 23, 2019 Item #10 Page 11 of 213 material is quite high, it is most often installed with a turf system with a shorter pile height and a supplemental pad system or with a resilient underlayment. Nike Grind Pros: 1. Nike Grind infill is durable and has a proven track record of long-term success 2. Nike Grind infill provides for footing characteristics that are consistent with the majority of other existing synthetic turf playing fields that include SBR infill materials 3. Nike Grind infill has relatively low maintenance requirements 4. Nike Grind infill resiliency does not mandate use of a supplemental pad system 5. Surface temperatures are slightly reduced from temperatures of fields with black SBR 6. Nike Grind infill is relatively odor free Nike Grind Cons: 1. Nike Grind infill is a significantly higher cost than standard SBR infill 2. Nike Grind infill is limited to the Astroturf product line for turf selection 3. Nike Grind infill has limited availability 4. Nike Grind infill appearance is somewhat irregular with multiple colors Nike Grind Costs (with supplemental pad system): Unit Cost: $0.65 per lb. Installation Rate: 2 lb./sf (for 2" pile height) Cost per sf: $1.30 Cost for 185,750 sffield: $241,475 Increase for 185,750 sf field above standard SBR $169,032 Increase for 185,750 sf field for supplemental pad: $371,500 Total Estimated Project Increase: $540,532 Other Organic Infill Materials: There are other organic materials in the marketplace for use as synthetic turf infill, but these materials are new to the marketplace. These include kiln-fired granulated pinewood (Brockfill), granulated walnut shells (Safeshell), and granulated olive pits (Pure Select with Fieldturf). These materials are not inherently resilient and rely on displacement for footing and surface give. They always require use of a supplemental pad system. They have a higher density than cork and will be less susceptible to movement if there is any surface saturation. These materials are new to the marketplace with no regional installations. The Brockfill product will have a very competitive price point with only a $0.10/sf cost increase over standard SBR rubber infill, not including the cost of the supplemental pad system. Coated Sand and Zeolite Infill Materials: There are also several mineral-based infills comprised of coated sand or zeolite materials. These materials are not inherently resilient and rely on displacement for footing and surface give. The zeolite is a relatively low-density porous mineral. It is relatively soft and may be susceptible to breaking down into smaller particles with wear. It has been used on a number of fields in southern California with the Astroturf product line. These fields have a relatively short pile July 23, 2019 Item #10 Page 12 of 213 height with a high fiber density so very little of the infill material is exposed to the surface. Without the infill volume to support the fiber there is a significant amount of directional horizontal fiber that can result in uneven traction characteristics. The coated sand materials include both hard and somewhat thin resilient coatings. The most common coated sand is the Envirofill product which has been used on several projects nationwide. The coating used on the sand is a colored acrylic which also make the sand rounder and more resistant to compaction, as it is easily displaced. The product that included a resilient coating is FlexSand. It has been DA Hogan and Associates' experience with previous synthetic turf systems which included 100% sand infill that the sand particles tended to lock together over time, resulting in a compact surface. These systems, however, included significantly higher fiber density -so it is unclear as to whether this is an analogous comparison. Fiscal Analysis The current estimated construction cost for this project is $1,588,663. This estimate includes a premium of $149,064 for the staff recommended application of coated crumb rubber granulate infill material, instead of traditional uncoated crumb rubber granulate infill material, within these fields. This estimate is subject to change should the City Council select a natural grass option, or a synthetic turf with an alternate infill material option. Funding for the project, in the amount of $1,800,000, was approved in FY 2018-19 Capital Improvement Program Budget. Maintenance costs for these fields are expected to decrease with the installation of new synthetic turf, due to the repair of most splits/tears being covered under a normal use eight- year warranty. Next Steps In accordance with the recommended action, staff will release the contract documents, plans and specifications for the solicitation of bids. The bid solicitation period will be at least 30 days. Staff will then evaluate the responsive bids received, and subsequently return to City Council with a recommendation to award a construction contract. The project is expected to be completed within 120 days after the award of a construction contract. Should the City Council select a natural grass option, or a synthetic turf with an alternate infill material option, staff and its consultant would subsequently make the applicable changes to the project's contract documents, plans and specifications. The period needed to make the changes would range between one and three months, depending option selected. Upon completion of those changes, .staff would return to the City Council for approval of the project's contract documents, plans and specifications and authorization for the City Clerk to advertise the project for public bids. Environmental Evaluation (CEQA) This project has been determined to be exempt from environmental review per CEQA Guidelines Section 15301, minor alteration of existing facilities. Public Notification This item was noticed in accordance with the Ralph M. Brown Act and was available for public viewing and review at least 72 hours prior to the scheduled meeting date. July 23, 2019 Item #10 Page 13 of 213 Staff included the athletic groups that ordinarily play on these multi-purpose fields in the review/revision of the project plans. Staff also advised those groups of the fields' scheduled closure during construction. Additionally, staff will provide general public notification of the fields' scheduled closure via the placement of signage on site, and the posting of bulletins on the Parks & Recreation Department webpage.

Bidders are further urged to review sections 2-3 SUBCONTRACTS of the General Provisions. CAUTIONS This form will be used by the Agency to determine the percentage of work that the Bidder proposes to perform. Bidders are cautioned that failure to provide complete and correct information may result in rejection of the bid as non-responsive. Any bid that proposes perfor- mance of more than 50 percent of the work by subcontractors or otherwise to be performed by forces other than the Bidder’s own organization will be rejected as non-responsive. Specialty items of work that may be so designated by the Engineer on the “Contractor’s Proposal” are not included in computing the percentage of work proposed to be performed by the Bidder. INSTRUCTIONS The Bidder shall set forth the name and location of business of each and every subcontractor whom the Bidder proposes to perform work or labor or render service in or about the work or improvement, and every subcontractor licensed as a contractor by the State of Cali-fornia whom the Bidder proposes to specially fabricate and install any portion of the work or im-provement according to detailed drawings contained in the plans and specifications in excess of one-half of one percent (0.5%) of the Bidder’s total bid or, in the case of bids or offers for the construction of streets and highways, including bridges, in excess of one-half of one percent (0.5%) or ten thousand dollars ($10,000) whichever is greater.

The value of material incorporated in any Subcon- tractor-installed bid item that is supplied by the Bidder shall be included as a part of the work that the Bidder proposes to be performed by the Subcontractor installing said item. When a Subcontractor has a Carlsbad business license, the number must be entered on the proper form. If the Subcontractor does not have a valid business license, enter “NONE” in the appropriate space. When the Bidder proposes using a Subcontractor to construct or install less than 100 percent of a bid item, the Bidder shall attach an explanation sheet to the Designation of Subcontractor form. The explanation sheet shall clearly apprise the City of the specific facts that show the Bidder proposes to perform no less than fifty percent (50%) of the work with its own forces.

Award and execution of Contract will be as provided for in the Specifications, Instruction to Bidders, or Notice Inviting Bids. 2-2 ASSIGNMENT. No Contract or portion thereof may be assigned without consent of the Board, except that the Contractor may assign money due or which will accrue to it under the Contract. If given written notice, such assignment will be recognized by the Board to the extent permitted by law. Any assignment of money shall be subject to all proper withholdings in favor of the Agency and to all deductions provided for in the Contract. All money withheld, whether as- signed or not, shall be subject to being used by the Agency for completion of the Work, should the Contractor be in default. 2-3 SUBCONTRACTS. 2-3.1 General. Each Bidder shall comply with the Chapter of the Public Contract Code including Sections 4100 through 4113. The following excerpts or summaries of some of the requirements of this Chapter are included below for information: The Bidder shall set forth in the Bid, as provided in 4104: “(a) The name and location of the place of business of each subcontractor who will perform work or labor or render service to the prime contractor in or about the construction of the work or improvements, or a subcontractor licensed by the State of California who, under subcontract to the prime contractor, specially fabricates and installs a portion of the work or improvement according to detailed drawings contained in the plans and specifications, in an amount in excess of one-half of 1 percent of the prime contractor’s total bid, or, in the case of bids or offers for the construction of streets or highways, including bridges, in excess of one-half of 1 percent of the prime contractor’s total bid or ten thousand dollars ($10,000), which- ever is greater.” “(b) The portion of the work which will be done by each such subcontractor under this act. The prime contractor shall list only one subcontractor for each such portion as is defined by the prime contractor in his bid.” If the Contractor fails to specify a Subcontractor, or specifies more than one Subcontractor for the same portion of the work to be performed under the Contract (in excess of one-half of 1 percent of the Contractor’s total Bid), the Contractor shall be qualified to perform that portion itself, and shall perform that portion itself, except as otherwise provided in the Code. As provided in Section 4107, no Contractor whose Bid is accepted shall substitute any person as Subcontractor in place of the Subcontractor listed in the original Bid, except for causes and by procedures established in Section 4107.5. This section provides procedures to correct a clerical error in the listing of a Subcontractor. Section 4110 provides that a Contractor violating any of the provisions of the Chapter violates the Contract and the Board may exercise the option either to cancel the Contract or assess the Con-tractor a penalty in an amount of not more than 10 percent of the subcontract involved, after a public hearing. July 23, 2019 Item #10 Page 67 of 213 Revised 6/15/17 Contract No. 4742 Page 52 of 104 Should the Contractor fail to adhere to the provisions requiring the Contractor to complete 50 percent of the contract price with its own organization, the Agency may at its sole discretion elect to cancel the contract or deduct an amount equal to 10 percent of the value of the work performed in excess of 50 percent of the contract price by other than the Contractor’s own organization. The Board shall be the sole body for determination of a violation of these provisions. In any proceed-ings under this section, the prime contractor shall be entitled to a public hearing before the Board and shall be notified ten (10) days in advance of the time and location of said hearing. The deter- mination of the City Council shall be final. 2-3.2 Additional Responsibility. The Contractor shall give personal attention to the fulfillment of the Contract and shall keep the Work under its control. The Contractor shall perform, with its own organization, Contract work amounting to at least 50 percent of the Contract Price except that any designated “Specialty Items” may be performed by subcontract, and the amount of any such “Specialty Items” so performed may be deducted from the Contract Price before computing the amount required to be performed by the Contractor with its own organization. “Specialty Items” will be identified by the Agency in the Bid or Proposal. Where an entire item is subcontracted, the value of work subcontracted will be based on the Contract Unit Price. When a portion of an item is subcontracted, the value of work subcontracted will be based on the estimated percentage of the Contract Unit Price. This will be determined from information submitted by the Contractor, and subject to approval by the Engineer. Before the work of any Subcontractor is started, the Contractor shall submit to the Engineer for approval a written statement showing the work to be subcontracted giving the name and business of each Subcontractor and description and value of each portion of the work to be so subcon-tracted. 2-3.3 Status of Subcontractors. Subcontractors shall be considered employees of the Con-tractor, and the Contractor shall be responsible for their work. 2-4 CONTRACT BONDS. Before execution of the Contract, the Bidder shall file surety bonds with the Agency to be approved by the Board in the amounts and for the purposes noted below. Bonds issued by a surety, who is authorized to issue bonds in California, and whose bonding limitation shown in said circular is sufficient to provide bonds in the amount required by the Con-tract shall be deemed to be approved unless specifically rejected by the Agency. Bonds from all other sureties shall be accompanied by all of the documents enumerated in Code of Civil Proce-dure 995.660 (a). The Bidder shall pay all bond premiums, costs, and incidentals. Each bond shall incorporate, by reference, the Contract and be signed by both the Bidder and Surety and the signature of the authorized agent of the Surety shall be notarized. The Contractor shall provide a faithful performance/warranty bond and payment bond (labor and materials bond) for this contract. The faithful performance/warranty bond shall be in a sum not less than one hundred percent of the total amount payable by the terms of this contract. The Contractor shall provide bonds to secure payment of laborers and materials suppliers in a sum not less than one hundred percent of the total amount payable by the terms of this contract. Both bonds shall extend in full force and effect and be retained by the Agency during this project until they are released according to the provisions of this section. July 23, 2019 Item #10 Page 68 of 213 Revised 6/15/17 Contract No. 4742 Page 53 of 104 The faithful performance/warranty bond will be reduced to 25 percent of the original amount 30 days after recordation of the Notice of Completion and will remain in full force and effect for the one year warranty period and until all warranty repairs are completed to the satisfaction of the Engineer. The bonds to secure payment of laborers and materials suppliers shall be released six months plus 30 days after recordation of the Notice of Completion if all claims have been paid. All bonds are to be placed with a surety insurance carrier admitted and authorized to transact the business of insurance in California and whose assets exceed their liabilities in an amount equal to or in excess of the amount of the bond. The bonds are to contain the following documents: 1) An original, or a certified copy, of the un-revoked appointment, power of attorney, by laws, or other instrument entitling or authorizing the person who executed the bond to do so. 2) A certified copy of the certificate of authority of the insurer issued by the insurance commis-sioner. If the bid is accepted, the Agency may require a financial statement of the assets and liabilities of the insurer at the end of the quarter calendar year prior to 30 days next preceding the date of the execution of the bond. The financial statement shall be made by an officer's certificate as defined in Section 173 of the Corporations Code. In the case of a foreign insurer, the financial statement may be verified by the oath of the principal officer or manager residing within the United States. Should any bond become insufficient, the Contractor shall renew the bond within 10 days after receiving notice from the Agency. Should any Surety at any time be unsatisfactory to the Board, notice will be given the Contractor to that effect. No further payments shall be deemed due or will be made under the contract until a new Surety shall qualify and be accepted by the Board. Changes in the Work or extensions of time, made pursuant to the Contract, shall in no way release the Contractor or Surety from its obligations. Notice of such changes or extensions shall be waived by the Surety. 2-5 PLANS AND SPECIFICATIONS. 2-5.1 General. The Contractor shall keep at the Work site a copy of the Plans and Specifica-tions, to which the Engineer shall have access at all times.

All soil and test hole data, water table elevations, and soil analyses shown on the drawings or included in the Specifications apply only at the location of the test holes and to the depths indicated. Soil test reports for test holes which have been drilled are available for inspection at the office of the Engineer. Any additional subsurface exploration shall be done by Bidders or the Contractor at their own expense. The indicated elevation of the water table is that which existed on the date when test hole data was determined. It is the Contractor’s responsibility to determine and allow for the elevation of groundwater at the date of project construction. A difference in elevation between groundwater shown in soil boring logs and groundwater actually encountered during construction will not be considered as a basis for extra work. 2-8 RIGHT-OF-WAY. Rights-of-way, easements, or rights-of-entry for the Work will be pro-vided by the Agency. Unless otherwise provided, the Contractor shall make arrangements, pay for, and assume all responsibility for acquiring, using, and disposing of additional work areas and facilities temporarily required. The Contractor shall indemnify and hold the Agency harmless from all claims for damages caused by such actions. 2-9 SURVEYING. 2-9.1 Permanent Survey Markers. The Contractor shall not cover or disturb permanent survey monuments or benchmarks without the consent of the Engineer. Where the Engineer concurs, in writing, with the Contractor that protecting an existing monument in place is impractical, the Con- tractor shall employ a licensed land surveyor or a registered civil engineer authorized to practice land surveying within the State of California, hereinafter Surveyor, to establish the location of the monument before it is disturbed.

July 23, 2019 Item #10 Page 78 of 213 Revised 6/15/17 Contract No. 4742 Page 63 of 104 SECTION 3 – CHANGES IN WORK 3-1 CHANGES REQUESTED BY THE CONTRACTOR. 3-1.1 General. Changes in the Plans and Specifications, requested in writing by the Contractor, which do not materially affect the Work and which are not detrimental to the Work or to the inter-ests of the Agency, may be granted by the Engineer. Nothing herein shall be construed as grant-ing a right to the Contractor to demand acceptance of such changes. 3-1.2 Payment for Changes Requested by the Contractor. If such changes are granted, they shall be made at a reduction in cost or no additional cost to the Agency. 3-2 CHANGES INITIATED BY THE AGENCY. 3-2.1 General. The Agency may change the Plans, Specifications, character of the work, or quantity of work provided the total arithmetic dollar value of all such changes, both additive and deductive, does not exceed 25 percent of the Contract Price. Should it become necessary to exceed this limitation, the change shall be by written Supplemental Agreement between the Con- tractor and Agency, unless both parties agree to proceed with the change by Change Order. Change Orders shall be in writing and state the dollar value of the change or established method of payment, any adjustment in contract time of completion, and when negotiated prices are in-volved, shall provide for the Contractor’s signature indicating acceptance. 3-2.2 Payment. 3-2.2.1 Contract Unit Prices. If a change is ordered in an item of work covered by a Contract Unit Price, and such change does not involve substantial change in character of the work from that shown on the Plans or specified in the Specifications, then an adjustment in payment will be made. This adjustment will be based upon the increase or decrease in quantity and the Contract Unit Price. If the actual quantity of an item of work covered by a Contract Unit Price and constructed in con-formance with the Plans and Specifications varies from the Bid quantity by 50 percent or less, payment will be made at the Contract Unit Price. If the actual quantity of said item of work varies from the Bid quantity by more than 50 percent, payment will be made per Section 3-2.2.2 or 3-2.2.3 as appropriate. If a change is ordered in an item of work covered by a Contract Unit Price, and such change does involve a substantial change in the character of the work from that shown on the Plans or specified in the Specifications, an adjustment in payment will be made per Section 3-2.4. 3-2.2.2 Increases of More Than 50 Percent. Should the actual quantity of an item of work cov-ered by a Contract Unit Price and constructed in conformance with the Plans and Specifications, exceed the Bid quantity by more than 50 percent, payment for the quantity in excess of 150 per-cent of the Bid quantity will be made on the basis of an adjustment in the Contract Unit Price mutually agreed to by the Contractor and the Agency, or at the option of the Engineer, on the basis of Extra Work per Section 3-3. The Extra Work per Section 3-3, basis of payment, shall not include fixed costs. Fixed costs shall be deemed to have been recovered by the Contractor through payment for 150 percent of the Bid quantity at the Contract Unit Price. July 23, 2019 Item #10 Page 79 of 213 Revised 6/15/17 Contract No. 4742 Page 64 of 104 3-2.2.3 Decreases of More Than 50 Percent. Should the actual quantity of an item of work covered by a Contract Unit Price, and constructed in conformance with the Plans and Specifica- tions, be less than 50 percent of the Bid quantity, an adjustment in payment will not be made unless so requested in writing by the Contractor. If the Contractor so requests, payment will be made on the basis of an adjustment in the Contract Unit Price mutually agreed to by the Contractor and the Agency, or at the option of the Engineer, on the basis of Extra Work per Section 3-3; however, in no case will payment be less than would be made for the actual quantity at the Con-tract Unit Price nor more than would be made for 50 percent of the Bid quantity at the Contract Unit Price. 3-2.3 Stipulated Unit Prices. Stipulated Unit Prices are unit prices established by the Agency in the Contract Documents as distinguished from Contract Unit Prices submitted by the Contrac-tor. Stipulated Unit Prices may be used for the adjustment of Contract changes when so specified in the Special Provisions. 3-2.4 Agreed Prices. Agreed Prices are prices for new or unforeseen work, or adjustments in Contract Unit Prices per Section 3-2.2, established by mutual agreement between the Contractor and the Agency. If mutual agreement cannot be reached, the Engineer may direct the Contractor to proceed on the basis of Extra Work in accordance per Section 3-3, except as otherwise spec-ified in Sections 3-2.2.2 and 3-2.2.3. 3.2.4.1 Schedule of Values. Prior to construction, Contractor shall provide a schedule of values for all lump sum bid items that shall be used for the purpose of progress payments. The prices shall be valid for the purpose of change orders to the project. 3.2.5 Eliminated Items. Should any Bid item be eliminated in its entirety, payment will be made to the Contractor for its actual costs incurred in connection with the eliminated item prior to notifi-cation in writing from the Engineer so stating its elimination. If material conforming to the Plans and Specifications is ordered by the Contractor for use in the eliminated item prior to the date of notification of elimination by the Engineer, and if the order for that material cannot be canceled, payment will be made to the Contractor for the actual cost of the material. In this case, the material shall become the property of the Agency. Payment will be made to the Contractor for its actual costs for any further handling. If the material is returnable, the material shall be returned and payment will be made to the Contractor for the actual cost of charges made by the supplier for returning the material and for handling by the Contractor. Actual costs, as used herein, shall be computed on the basis of Extra Work per Section 3-3. 3-3 EXTRA WORK. 3-3.1 General. New or unforeseen work will be classified as “extra work” when the Engineer determines that it is not covered by Contract Unit Prices or stipulated unit prices. 3-3.2 Payment. 3-3.2.1 General. When the price for the extra work cannot be agreed upon, the Agency will pay for the extra work based on the accumulation of costs as provided herein. July 23, 2019 Item #10 Page 80 of 213 Revised 6/15/17 Contract No. 4742 Page 65 of 104 3-3.2.2 Basis for Establishing Costs. (a) Labor. The costs of labor will be the actual cost for wages of workers performing the extra work at the time the extra work is done, plus employer payments of payroll taxes, workers com-pensation insurance, liability insurance, health and welfare, pension, vacation, apprenticeship funds, and other direct costs, resulting from Federal, State, or local laws, as well as assessments or benefits required by lawful collective bargaining agreements. The use of a labor classification which would increase the extra work cost will not be permitted unless the Contractor establishes the necessity for such additional costs. Labor costs for equip-ment operators and helpers shall be reported only when such costs are not included in the invoice for equipment rental. The labor cost for foremen shall be proportioned to all of their assigned work and only that applicable to extra work will be paid. Nondirect labor costs, including superintendence, shall be considered part of the markup of Sec-tion 3-3.2.3 (a). (b) Materials. The cost of materials reported shall be at invoice or lowest current price at which such materials are locally available and delivered to the job site in the quantities involved, plus sales tax, freight, and delivery. The Agency reserves the right to approve materials and sources of supply, or to supply materials to the Contractor if necessary for the progress of the Work. No markup shall be applied to any material provided by the Agency. (c) Tool and Equipment Rental. No payment will be made for the use of tools which have a replacement value of $200 or less. Regardless of ownership, the rates and right-of-way delay factors to be used in determining rental and delay costs shall be the edition of the, “Labor Surcharge and Equipment Rental Rates” pub-lished by CALTRANS, current at the time of the actual use of the tool or equipment. The right-of- way delay factors therein shall be used as multipliers of the rental rates for determining the value of costs for delay to the Contractor and subcontractors, if any. The labor surcharge rates published therein are not a part of this contract. The rental rates paid shall include the cost of fuel, oil, lubrication, supplies, small tools, necessary attachments, repairs and maintenance of any kind, depreciation, storage, insurance, and all inci-dentals. Necessary loading and transportation costs for equipment used on the extra work shall be included. If equipment is used intermittently and, when not in use, could be returned to its rental source at less expense to the Agency than holding it at the Work site, it shall be returned, unless the Con-tractor elects to keep it at the Work site, at no expense to the Agency. All equipment shall be acceptable to the Engineer, in good working condition, and suitable for the purpose for which it is to be used. Manufacturer’s ratings and approved modifications shall be used to classify equipment and it shall be powered by a unit of at least the minimum rating rec-ommended by the manufacturer. The reported rental time for equipment already at the Work site shall be the duration of its use on the extra work. This time begins when equipment is first put into actual operation on the extra work, plus the time required to move it from its previous site and back, or to a closer site. July 23, 2019 Item #10 Page 81 of 213 Revised 6/15/17 Contract No. 4742 Page 66 of 104 (d) Other Items. The Agency may authorize other items which may be required on the extra work, including labor, services, material, and equipment. These items must be different in their nature from those required for the Work, and be of a type not ordinarily available from the Con-tractor or Subcontractors. Invoices covering all such items in detail shall be submitted with the request for payment. (e) Invoices. Vendors’ invoices for material, equipment rental and other expenditures shall be submitted with the request for payment. If the request for payment is not substantiated by invoices or other documentation, the Agency may establish the cost of the item involved at the lowest price which was current at the time of the report. 3-3.2.3 Markup. (a) Work by Contractor. The following percentages shall be added to the Contractor's costs and shall constitute the markup for all overhead and profits: 1) Labor …………………………..… 20 2) Materials .……………………….. 15 3) Equipment Rental ………………. 15 4) Other Items and Expenditures … 15 To the sum of the costs and markups provided for in this section, 1 percent shall be added as compensation for bonding. (b) Work by Subcontractor. When all or any part of the extra work is performed by a Sub- contractor, the markup established in Section 3-3.2.3(a) shall be applied to the Subcontractor's actual cost of such work. A markup of 10 percent on the first $5,000 of the subcontracted portion of the extra work and a markup of 5 percent on work added in excess of $5,000 of the subcon-tracted portion of the extra work may be added by the Contractor. 3-3.3 Daily Reports by Contractor. When the price for the extra work cannot be agreed upon, the Contractor shall submit a daily report to the Engineer on forms approved by the Agency. Included are applicable delivery tickets, listing all labor, materials, and equipment involved for that day, and other services and expenditures when authorized. Payment for extra work will not be made until such time that the Contractor submits completed daily reports and all supporting doc-uments to the Engineer. Failure to submit the daily report by the close of the next working day may waive any rights for that day. An attempt shall be made to reconcile the report daily, and it shall be signed by the Engineer and the Contractor. In the event of disagreement, pertinent notes shall be entered by each party to explain points which cannot be resolved immediately. Each party shall retain a signed copy of the report. Reports by Subcontractors or others shall be submitted through the Contractor. The report shall: 1. Show names of workers, classifications, and hours worked. 2. Describe and list quantities of materials used. 3. Show type of equipment, size, identification number, and hours of operation, including loading and transportation, if applicable. 4. Describe other services and expenditures in such detail as the Agency may require. July 23, 2019 Item #10 Page 82 of 213 Revised 6/15/17 Contract No. 4742 Page 67 of 104 3-4 CHANGED CONDITIONS. The Contractor shall promptly notify the Engineer of the fol- lowing Work site conditions (hereinafter called changed conditions), in writing, upon their discov-ery and before they are disturbed: 1. Subsurface or latent physical conditions differing materially from those represented in the Contract; 2. Unknown physical conditions of an unusual nature differing materially from those ordinarily encountered and generally recognized as inherent in work of the character being per-formed; and 3. Material differing from that represented in the Contract which the Contractor believes may be hazardous waste, as defined in Section 25117 of the Health and Safety Code, that is required to be removed to a Class I, Class II, or Class III disposal site in accordance with provisions of existing law. The Engineer will promptly investigate conditions which appear to be changed conditions. If the Engineer determines that conditions are changed conditions and they will materially affect perfor-mance time, the Contractor, upon submitting a written request, will be granted an extension of time subject to the provisions of 6-6. If the Engineer determines that the conditions do not justify an adjustment in compensation, the Contractor will be notified in writing. This notice will also advise the Contractor of its obligation to notify the Engineer in writing if the Contractor disagrees. The Contractor’s failure to give notice of changed conditions promptly upon their discovery and before they are disturbed shall constitute a waiver of all claims in connection therewith. The Contractor shall not be entitled to the payment of any additional compensation for any act, or failure to act, by the Engineer, including failure or refusal to issue a change order, or for the hap- pening of any event, thing, occurrence, or other cause, unless the Contractor shall have first given the Engineer due written notice of potential claim as hereinafter specified. Compliance with this section shall not be required as a prerequisite to notice provisions in Section 6-7.3 Contract Time Accounting, nor to any claim that is based on differences in measurement or errors of computation as to contract quantities. The written notice of potential claim for changed conditions shall be submitted by the Contractor to the Engineer upon their discovery and prior to the time that the Contractor performs the work giving rise to the potential claim. The Contractor’s failure to give written notice of potential claim for changed conditions to the agency upon their discovery and before they are disturbed shall constitute a waiver of all claims in connection therewith. The Contractor shall provide the City with a written document containing a description of the par-ticular circumstances giving rise to the potential claim, the reasons for which the Contractor be-lieves additional compensation may be due and nature of any and all costs involved within 20 working days of the date of service of the written notice of potential claim for changed condi- tions. Verbal notifications are disallowed. The potential claim shall include the following certification relative to the California False Claims Act, Government Code Sections 12650-12655. July 23, 2019 Item #10 Page 83 of 213 Revised 6/15/17 Contract No. 4742 Page 68 of 104 “The undersigned certifies that the above statements are made in full cognizance of the California False Claims Act, Government Code Sections 12650-12655. The undersigned further under- stands and agrees that this potential claim, unless resolved, must be restated as a claim in re-sponse to the City’s proposed final estimate in order for it to be further considered.” By: ___________________________________ Title: ______________________________ Date: _________________________________ Company Name: ______________________________________________________________ The Contractor’s estimate of costs may be updated when actual costs are known. The Contractor shall submit substantiation of its actual costs to the Engineer within 20 working days after the affected work is completed. Failure to do so shall be sufficient cause for denial of any claim sub-sequently filed on the basis of said notice of potential claim. It is the intention of this section that differences between the parties arising under and by virtue of the contract be brought to the attention of the Engineer at the earliest possible time in order that such matters be settled, if possible, or other appropriate action promptly taken. 3-5 DISPUTED WORK. The Contractor shall give the agency written notice of potential claim prior to commencing any disputed work. Failure to give said notice shall constitute a waiver of all claims in connection therewith. If the contractor and the agency are unable to reach agreement on disputed work, the Agency may direct the contractor to proceed with the work. Prior to proceeding with dispute resolution pursuant to Public Contract Code provisions specified hereinafter, the contractor shall attempt to resolve all disputes informally through the following dispute resolution chain of command: 1. Project Inspector (a.k.a. Parks Inspector) 2. Construction Manager (a.k.a. Parks Supervisor) 3. Parks Services Manager 4. Engineer (or Parks and Recreation Director, as Engineer’s approved representative) 5. City Manager The Contractor shall submit a complete report within 20 working days after completion of the disputed work stating its position on the claim, the contractual basis for the claim, along with all documentation supporting the costs and all other evidentiary materials. At each level of claim or appeal of claim the City will, within 10 working days of receipt of said claim or appeal of claim, review the Contractor’s report and respond with a position, request additional information or re-quest that the Contractor meet and present its report. When additional information or a meeting is requested the City will provide its position within 10 working days of receipt of said additional information or Contractor’s presentation of its report. The Contractor may appeal each level’s position up to the City Manager after which the Contractor may proceed under the provisions of the Public Contract Code. The authority within the dispute resolution chain of command is limited to recommending a reso-lution to a claim to the City Manager. Actual approval of the claim is subject to the change order provisions in the contract.

July 23, 2019 Item #10 Page 89 of 213 Revised 6/15/17 Contract No. 4742 Page 74 of 104 SECTION 4 – CONTROL OF MATERIALS 4-1 MATERIALS AND WORKMANSHIP. 4-1.1. General. All materials, parts, and equipment furnished by the Contractor in the Work shall be new, high grade, and free from defects. Quality of work shall be in accordance with the gener-ally accepted standards. Material and work quality shall be subject to the Engineer’s approval. Materials and work quality not conforming to the requirements of the Specifications shall be con- sidered defective and will be subject to rejection. Defective work or material, whether in place or not, shall be removed immediately from the site by the Contractor, at its expense, when so di-rected by the Engineer. If the Contractor fails to replace any defective or damaged work or material after reasonable no-tice, the Engineer may cause such work or materials to be replaced. The replacement expense will be deducted from the amount to be paid to the Contractor. Used or secondhand materials, parts, and equipment may be used only if permitted by the Spec- ifications. 4-1.2 Protection of Work and Materials. The Contractor shall provide and maintain storage facilities and employ such measures as will preserve the specified quality and fitness of materials to be used in the Work. Stored materials shall be reasonably accessible for inspection. The Con-tractor shall also adequately protect new and existing work and all items of equipment for the duration of the Contract. The Contractor shall not, without the Agency’s consent, assign, sell, mortgage, hypothecate, or remove equipment or materials which have been installed or delivered and which may be neces-sary for the completion of the Contract. 4-1.3 Inspection Requirements. 4-1.3.1 General. Unless otherwise specified, inspection is required at the source for such typical materials and fabricated items as bituminous paving mixtures, structural concrete, metal fabrica-tion, metal casting, welding, concrete pipe manufacture, protective coating application, and similar shop or plant operations. Steel pipe in sizes less than 18 inches and vitrified clay and cast iron pipe in all sizes are accepta-ble upon certification as to compliance with the Specifications, subject to sampling and testing by the Agency. Standard items of equipment such as electric motors, conveyors, elevators, plumbing fixtures, etc., are subject to inspection at the job site only. Special items of equipment such as designed electrical panel boards, large pumps, sewage plant equipment, etc., are subject to in-spection at the source, normally only for performance testing. The Specifications may require inspection at the source for other items not typical of those listed in this section. The Contractor shall provide the Engineer free and safe access to any and all parts of work at any time. Such free and safe access shall include means of safe access and egress, ventilation, lighting, shoring, dewatering and all elements pertaining to the safety of persons as contained in the State of California, California Code of Regulations, Title 8, Industrial Relations, Chapter 4, Division of Industrial Safety, Subchapter 4, Construction Safety Orders and such other safety July 23, 2019 Item #10 Page 90 of 213 Revised 6/15/17 Contract No. 4742 Page 75 of 104 regulations as may apply. Contractor shall furnish Engineer with such information as may be nec-essary to keep the Engineer fully informed regarding progress and manner of work and character of materials. Inspection or testing of the whole or any portion of the work or materials incorporated in the work shall not relieve Contractor from any obligation to fulfill this Contract. 4-1.3.2 Inspection of Materials Not Locally Produced. When the Contractor intends to pur-chase materials, fabricated products, or equipment from sources located more than 50 miles out-side the geographical limits of the Agency, an inspector or accredited testing laboratory (approved by the Engineer), shall be engaged by the Contractor at its expense, to inspect the materials, equipment or process. This approval shall be obtained before producing any material or equip-ment. The inspector or representative of the testing laboratory shall judge the materials by the requirements of the Plans and Specifications. The Contractor shall forward reports required by the Engineer. No material or equipment shall be shipped nor shall any processing, fabrication or treatment of such materials be done without proper inspection by the approved agent. Approval by said agent shall not relieve the Contractor of responsibility for complying with the Contract requirements. 4-1.3.3 Inspection by the Agency. The Agency will provide all inspection and testing laboratory services within 50 miles of the geographical limits of the Agency. For private contracts, all costs of inspection at the source, including salaries and mileage costs, shall be paid by the permittee. 4-1.4 Test of Material. Before incorporation in the Work, the Contractor shall submit samples of materials, as the Engineer may require, at no cost to the Agency. The Contractor, at its ex-pense, shall deliver the materials for testing to the place and at the time designated by the Engi-neer. Unless otherwise provided, all initial testing will be performed under the direction of the Engineer, and at no expense to the Contractor. If the Contractor is to provide and pay for testing, it will be stated in the Specifications. For private contracts, the testing expense shall be borne by the permittee. The Contractor shall notify the Engineer in writing, at least 15 days in advance, of its intention to use materials for which tests are specified, to allow sufficient time to perform the tests. The notice shall name the proposed supplier and source of material. If the notice of intent to use is sent before the materials are available for testing or inspection, or is sent so far in advance that the materials on hand at the time will not last but will be replaced by a new lot prior to use on the Work, it will be the Contractor’s responsibility to renotify the Engineer when samples which are representative may be obtained. Except as specified in these Provisions, the Agency will bear the cost of testing of locally produced materials and/or on-site workmanship where the results of such tests meet or exceed the require-ments indicated in the Standard Specifications, Technical Specification, and any Supplemental Provisions. The cost of all other tests shall be borne by the Contractor. At the option of the Engineer, the source of supply of each of the materials shall be approved by the Engineer before the delivery is started. All materials proposed for use may be inspected or tested at any time during their preparation and use. If, after incorporating such materials into the Work, it is found that sources of supply that have been approved do not furnish a uniform product, or if the product from any source proves unacceptable at any time, the Contractor shall furnish approved material from other approved sources. If any product proves unacceptable after im-proper storage, handling or for any other reason it shall be rejected, not incorporated into the work and shall be removed from the project site all at the Contractor’s expense. July 23, 2019 Item #10 Page 91 of 213 Revised 6/15/17 Contract No. 4742 Page 76 of 104 Compaction tests may be made by the Engineer and all costs for tests that meet or exceed the requirements of the specifications shall be borne by the Agency. Said tests may be made at any place along the work as deemed necessary by the Engineer. The costs of any retests made nec-essary by noncompliance with the specifications shall be borne by the Contractor. 4-1.5 Certification. The Engineer may waive materials testing requirements of the Specifica-tions and accept the manufacturer’s written certification that the materials to be supplied meet those requirements. Material test data may be required as part of the certification. 4-1.6 Trade Names or Equals. The Contractor may supply any of the materials specified or offer an equivalent. The Engineer shall determine whether the material offered is equivalent to that specified. Adequate time shall be allowed for the Engineer to make this determination. Whenever any particular material, process, or equipment is indicated by patent, proprietary or brand name, or by name of manufacturer, such wording is used for the purpose of facilitating its description and shall be deemed to be followed by the words or equal. A listing of materials is not intended to be comprehensive, or in order of preference. The Contractor may offer any mate-rial, process, or equipment considered to be equivalent to that indicated. The substantiation of offers shall be submitted as provided in the contract documents. The Contractor shall, at its expense, furnish data concerning items offered by it as equivalent to those specified. The Contractor shall have the material tested as required by the Engineer to determine that the quality, strength, physical, chemical, or other characteristics, including durabil-ity, finish, efficiency, dimensions, service, and suitability are such that the item will fulfill its in- tended function. Test methods shall be subject to the approval of the Engineer. Test results shall be reported promptly to the Engineer, who will evaluate the results and determine if the substitute item is equivalent. The Engineer’s findings shall be final. Installation and use of a substitute item shall not be made until approved by the Engineer. If a substitute offered by the Contractor is not found to be equal to the specified material, the Contractor shall furnish and install the specified material. The specified Contract completion time shall not be affected by any circumstance developing from the provisions of this section. The Contractor is responsible for the satisfactory performance of substituted items. If, in the sole opinion of the Engineer, the substitution is determined to be unsatisfactory in performance, ap-pearance, durability, compatibility with associated items, availability of repair parts and suitability of application the Contractor shall remove the substituted item and replace it with the originally specified item at no cost to the Agency. 4-1.7 Weighing and Metering Equipment. All scales and metering equipment used for propor- tioning materials shall be inspected for accuracy and certified within the past 12 months by the State of California Bureau of Weights and Measures, by the County Director or Sealer of Weights and Measures, or by a scale mechanic registered with or licensed by the County. July 23, 2019 Item #10 Page 92 of 213 Revised 6/15/17 Contract No. 4742 Page 77 of 104 The accuracy of the work of a scale service agency, except as stated herein, shall meet the standards of the California Business and Professions Code and the California Code of Regula- tions pertaining to weighing devices. A certificate of compliance shall be presented, prior to oper-ation, to the Engineer for approval and shall be renewed whenever required by the Engineer at no cost to the Agency. All scales shall be arranged so they may be read easily from the operator’s platform or area. They shall indicate the true net weight without the application of any factor. The figures of the scales shall be clearly legible. Scales shall be accurate to within 1 percent when tested with the plant shut down. Weighing equipment shall be so insulated against vibration or moving of other oper-ating equipment in the plant area that the error in weighing with the entire plant running will not exceed 2 percent for any setting nor 1.5 percent for any batch. 4-1.8 Calibration of Testing Equipment. Testing equipment, such as, but not limited to pres-sure gages, metering devices, hydraulic systems, force (load) measuring instruments, and strain-measuring devices shall be calibrated by a testing agency acceptable to the Engineer at intervals not to exceed 12 months and following repairs, modification, or relocation of the equipment. Cal-ibration certificates shall be provided when requested by the Engineer. 4-1.9 Construction Materials Dispute Resolution (Soils, Rock Materials, Concrete, Mortar and Related Materials, Masonry Materials, Bituminous Materials, Rock Products, and Mod-ified Asphalts). In the interest of safety and public value, whenever credible evidence arises to contradict the test values of materials, the Agency and the Contractor will initiate an immediate and cooperative investigation. Test values of materials are results of the materials’ tests, as de-fined by these Specifications or by the special provisions, required to accept the Work. Credible evidence is process observations or test values gathered using industry accepted practices. A contradiction exists whenever test values or process observations of the same or similar materials are diverse enough such that the work acceptance or performance becomes suspect. The inves- tigation shall allow access to all test results, procedures, and facilities relevant to the disputed work and consider all available information and, when necessary, gather new and additional in-formation in an attempt to determine the validity, the cause, and if necessary, the remedy to the contradiction. If the cooperative investigation reaches any resolution mechanism acceptable to both the Agency and the Contractor, the contradiction shall be considered resolved and the co-operative investigation concluded. Whenever the cooperative investigation is unable to reach res-olution, the investigation may then either conclude without resolution or continue by written noti-fication of one party to the other requesting the implementation of a resolution process by com-mittee. The continuance of the investigation shall be contingent upon recipient’s agreement and acknowledged in writing within 3 calendar days after receiving a request. Without acknowledge-ment, the investigation shall conclude without resolution. The committee shall consist of three State of California Registered Civil Engineers. Within 7 calendar days after the written request notification, the Agency and the Contractor will each select one engineer. Within 14 calendar days of the written request notification, the two selected engineers will select a third engineer. The goal in selection of the third member is to complement the professional experience of the first two engineers. Should the two engineers fail to select the third engineer, the Agency and the Con-tractor shall each propose 2 engineers to be the third member within 21 calendar days after the written request notification. The first two engineers previously selected shall then select one of the four proposed engineers in a blind draw. The committee shall be a continuance of the coop-erative investigation and will re-consider all available information and if necessary gather new and additional information to determine the validity, the cause, and if necessary, the remedy to the contradiction. The committee will focus upon the performance adequacy of the material(s) using standard engineering principles and practices and to ensure public value, the committee may July 23, 2019 Item #10 Page 93 of 213 Revised 6/15/17 Contract No. 4742 Page 78 of 104 provide engineering recommendations as necessary. Unless otherwise agreed, the committee will have 30 calendar days from its formation to complete their review and submit their findings. The final resolution of the committee shall be by majority opinion, in writing, stamped and signed. Should the final resolution not be unanimous, the dissenter may attach a written, stamped, and signed minority opinion. Once started, the resolution process by committee shall continue to full conclusion unless: 1. Within 7 days of the formation of the committee, the Agency and the Contractor reach an acceptable resolution mechanism; or 2. Within 14 days of the formation of the committee, the initiating party withdraws its written notification and agrees to bear all investigative related costs thus far incurred; or 3. At any point by the mutual agreement of the Agency and the Contractor. Unless otherwise agreed, the Contractor shall bear and maintain a record for all the investigative costs until resolution. Should the investigation discover assignable causes for the contradiction, the assignable party, the Agency or the Contractor, shall bear all costs associated with the investigation. Should assignable causes for the contradiction extended to both parties, the investigation will assign costs cooperatively with each party or when necessary, equally. Should the investigation substantiate a contradiction without assignable cause, the inves-tigation will assign costs cooperatively with each party or when necessary, equally. Should the investigation be unable to substantiate a contradiction, the initiator of the investigation shall bear all investigative costs. All claim notification requirements of the contract pertain-ing to the contradiction shall be suspended until the investigation is concluded. 4-2 MATERIALS TRANSPORTATION, HANDLING AND STORAGE. The Contractor shall order, purchase, transport, coordinate delivery, accept delivery, confirm the quantity and quality received, prepare storage area(s), store, handle, protect, move, relocate, remove and dispose excess of all materials used to accomplish the Work. Materials shall be delivered to the site of the work only during working hours, as defined in Section 6-7.2, and shall be accompanied by bills of lading that shall clearly state for each delivery: the name of the Contractor as consignee, the project name and number, address of delivery and name of consignor and a description of the material(s) shipped. Prior to storage of any materials which have been shipped to or by the Contractor to any location within the Agency’s boundaries the Contractor shall provide the Engi-neer a copy of lease agreements for each property where such materials are stored. The lease agreement shall clearly state the term of the lease, the description of materials allowed to be stored and shall provide for the removal of the materials and restoration of the storage site within the time allowed for the Work. All such storage shall conform to all laws and ordinances that may pertain to the materials stored and to preparation of the storage site and the location of the site on which the materials are stored. Loss, damage or deterioration of all stored materials shall be the Contractor’s responsibility. Conformance to the requirements of this section, both within and outside the limits of work are a part of the Work. The Engineer shall have the right to verify the suitability of materials and their proper storage at any time during the Work. July 23, 2019 Item #10 Page 94 of 213 Revised 6/15/17 Contract No. 4742 Page 79 of 104 SECTION 5 – UTILITIES 5-1 LOCATION. The Agency and affected utility companies have, by a search of known rec-ords, endeavored to locate and indicate on the Plans, all utilities which exist within the limits of the work. However, the accuracy and/or completeness of the nature, size and/or location of utili-ties indicated on the Plans is not guaranteed. Where underground main distribution conduits such as water, gas, sewer, electric power, tele-phone, or cable television are shown on the Plans, the Contractor shall assume that every prop- erty parcel will be served by a service connection for each type of utility. As provided in Section 4216 of the California Government Code, at least 2 working days prior to commencing any excavation, the Contractor shall contact the regional notification center (Under-ground Service Alert of Southern California) and obtain an inquiry identification number. The California Department of Transportation is not required by Section 4216 to become a member of the regional notification center. The Contractor shall contact it for location of its subsurface installations. The Contractor shall determine the location and depth of all utilities, including service connections, which have been marked by the respective owners and which may affect or be affected by its operations. If no pay item is provided in the Contract for this work, full compensation for such work shall be considered as included in the prices bid for other items of work. 5-2 PROTECTION. The Contractor shall not interrupt the service function or disturb the sup-port of any utility without authority from the owner or order from the Agency. All valves, switches, vaults, and meters shall be maintained readily accessible for emergency shutoff. Where protection is required to ensure support of utilities located as shown on the Plans or in accordance with Section 5-1, the Contractor shall, unless otherwise provided, furnish and place the necessary protection at its expense. Upon learning of the existence and location of any utility omitted from or shown incorrectly on the Plans, the Contractor shall immediately notify the Engineer in writing. When authorized by the Engineer, support or protection of the utility will be paid for as provided in Section 3-2.2.3 or 3-3. The Contractor shall immediately notify the Engineer and the utility owner if any utility is disturbed or damaged. The Contractor shall bear the costs of repair or replacement of any utility damaged if located as noted in Section 5-1. When placing concrete around or contiguous to any non-metallic utility installation, the Contractor shall at its expense: 1. Furnish and install a 2 inch cushion of expansion joint material or other similar resilient material; or 2. Provide a sleeve or other opening which will result in a 2 inch minimum-clear annular space between the concrete and the utility; or 3. Provide other acceptable means to prevent embedment in or bonding to the concrete. July 23, 2019 Item #10 Page 95 of 213 Revised 6/15/17 Contract No. 4742 Page 80 of 104 Where concrete is used for backfill or for structures which would result in embedment, or partial embedment, of a metallic utility installation; or where the coating, bedding or other cathodic pro-tection system is exposed or damaged by the Contractor’s operations, the Contractor shall notify the Engineer and arrange to secure the advice of the affected utility owner regarding the proce-dures required to maintain or restore the integrity of the system. 5-3 REMOVAL. Unless otherwise specified, the Contractor shall remove all interfering por-tions of utilities shown on the Plans or indicated in the Bid documents as “abandoned” or “to be abandoned in place”. Before starting removal operations, the Contractor shall ascertain from the Agency whether the abandonment is complete, and the costs involved in the removal and disposal shall be included in the Bid for the items of work necessitating such removals. 5-4 RELOCATION. When feasible, the owners responsible for utilities within the area affected by the Work will complete their necessary installations, relocations, repairs, or replacements be-fore commencement of work by the Contractor. When the Plans or Specifications indicate that a utility installation is to be relocated, altered, or constructed by others, the Agency will conduct all negotiations with the owners and work will be done at no cost to the Contractor, except for man-hole frame and cover sets to be brought to grade as provided in the Standard Specifications for Public Works Construction, 2012 Edition, and the supplements thereto. Utilities which are relo-cated in order to avoid interference shall be protected in their position and the cost of such pro-tection shall be included in the Bid for the items of work necessitating such relocation. After award of the Contract, portions of utilities which are found to interfere with the Work will be relocated, altered or reconstructed by the owners, or the Engineer may order changes in the Work to avoid interference. Such changes will be paid for in accordance with Section 3-2. When the Plans or Specifications provide for the Contractor to alter, relocate, or reconstruct a utility, all costs for such work shall be included in the Bid for the items of work necessitating such work. Temporary or permanent relocation or alteration of utilities requested by the Contractor for its convenience shall be its responsibility and it shall make all arrangements and bear all costs. The utility owner will relocate service connections as necessary within the limits of the Work or within temporary construction or slope easements. When directed by the Engineer, the Contractor shall arrange for the relocation of service connections as necessary between the meter and prop-erty line, or between a meter and the limits of temporary construction or slope easements. The relocation of such service connections will be paid for in accordance with provisions of Section 3-3. Payment will include the restoration of all existing improvements which may be affected thereby. The Contractor may agree with the owner of any utility to disconnect and reconnect in-terfering service connections. The Agency will not be involved in any such agreement. In conformance with Section 5-6 the Contractor shall coordinate the work with utility agencies and companies. Prior to the installation of any and all utility structures within the limits of work by any utility agency or company, or its contractor, the Contractor shall place all curb or curb and gutter that is a part of the work and adjacent to the location where such utility structures are shown on the plans and are noted as being located, relocated or are otherwise shown as installed by others. In order to minimize delays to the Contractor caused by the failure of other parties to relocate utilities that interfere with the construction, the Contractor, upon the Engineer’s approval, may be permitted to temporarily omit the portion of work affected by the utility. If such temporary omission is approved by the Engineer the Contractor shall place survey or other physical control markers sufficient to locate the curb or curb and gutter to the satisfaction of the utility agency or company. Such temporary omission shall be for the Contractor’s convenience and no additional compensa- July 23, 2019 Item #10 Page 96 of 213 Revised 6/15/17 Contract No. 4742 Page 81 of 104 tion will be allowed therefore or for additional work, materials or delay associated with the tempo-rary omission. The portion thus omitted shall be constructed by the Contractor immediately fol- lowing the relocation of the utility involved unless otherwise directed by the Engineer. 5-5 DELAYS. The Contractor shall notify the Engineer of its construction schedule insofar as it affects the protection, removal, or relocation of utilities. Said notification shall be included as a part of the construction schedule required in Section 6-1. The Contractor shall notify the Engineer in writing of any subsequent changes in the construction schedule which will affect the time avail-able for protection, removal, or relocation of utilities. The Contractor will not be entitled to damages or additional payment for delays attributable to utility relocations or alterations if correctly located, noted, and completed in accordance with Sec-tion 5-1. The Contractor may be given an extension of time for unforeseen delays attributable to unrea-sonably protracted interference by utilities in performing work correctly shown on the Plans. The Agency will assume responsibility for the timely removal, relocation, or protection of existing main or trunkline utility facilities within the area affected by the Work if such utilities are not iden-tified in the Contract Documents. The Contractor will not be assessed liquidated damages for any delay caused by failure of Agency to provide for the timely removal, relocation, or protection of such existing facilities. If the Contractor sustains loss due to delays attributable to interferences, relocations, or altera-tions not covered by Section 5-1, which could not have been avoided by the judicious handling of forces, equipment, or plant, there shall be paid to the Contractor such amount as the Engineer may find to be fair and reasonable compensation for such part of the Contractor’s actual loss as was unavoidable and the Contractor may be granted an extension of time. 5-6 COOPERATION. When necessary, the Contractor shall so conduct its operations as to permit access to the Work site and provide time for utility work to be accomplished during the progress of the Work. July 23, 2019 Item #10 Page 97 of 213 Revised 6/15/17 Contract No. 4742 Page 82 of 104 SECTION 6 – PROSECUTION, PROGRESS, AND ACCEPTANCE OF THE WORK 6-1 CONSTRUCTION SCHEDULE AND COMMENCEMENT OF WORK. Except as other-wise provided herein and unless otherwise prohibited by permits from other agencies as may be required by law the Contractor shall begin work within 15 calendar days after receipt of the "Notice to Proceed". 6-1.1 Pre-Construction Meeting. After, or upon, notification of contract award, the Engineer will set the time and location for the Preconstruction Meeting. Attendance of the Contractor’s man-agement personnel responsible for the management, administration, and execution of the project is mandatory for the meeting to be convened. Failure of the Contractor to have the Contractor’s responsible project personnel attend the Preconstruction Meeting will be grounds for default by Contractor per Section 6-4. No separate payment will be made for the Contractor’s attendance at the meeting. The notice to proceed will only be issued on or after the completion of the precon- struction meeting. 6-1.1.1 Baseline Construction Schedule Submittal. The Contractor shall submit the Baseline Construction Schedule per the submittal requirements of Section 2-5.3. The submittal of the Base-line Construction Schedule shall include each item and element of Sections 6-1.2 through 6-1.2.9 and shall be on hard (paper) copy and electronic media conforming to Section 6-1.3.3 Electronic Media. 6-1.2 Preparation and Review of the Baseline Construction Schedule. The Contractor shall prepare the Baseline Construction Schedule as a Critical Path Method (CPM) Schedule in the precedence diagram method (activity-on-node) format. The Baseline Construction Schedule shall depict a workable plan showing the sequence, duration, and interdependence of all activities re-quired to represent the complete performance of all project work as well as periods where work is precluded. The Baseline Construction Schedule shall begin with the projected date of issuance of the notice to proceed and conclude with the date of final completion per the contract duration. The Baseline Construction Schedule shall include detail of all project phasing, staging, and se-quencing, including all milestones necessary to define beginning and ending of each phase or stage. 6-1.2.1 Time-Scaled Network Diagram. As a part of the Baseline Construction Schedule the Contractor shall prepare and submit to the Engineer a complete time-scaled network diagram showing all of the activities, logic relationships, and milestones comprising the schedule. 6-1.2.2 Tabular Listing. As a part of the Baseline Construction Schedule the Contractor shall prepare and submit to the Engineer a tabular listing of all of the activities, showing for each activity the identification number, the description, the duration, the early start, the early finish, the late start, the late finish, the total float, and all predecessor and successor activities for the activity described. 6-1.2.3 Bar Chart. As a part of the Baseline Construction Schedule the Contractor shall prepare and submit to the Engineer a chart showing individual tasks and their durations arranged with the tasks on the vertical axis and duration on the horizontal axis. The bar chart shall use differing texture patterns or distinctive line types to show the critical path. 6-1.2.4 Schedule Software. The Contractor shall use commercially available software equal to the Windows 2000 compatible “Suretrak” program by Primavera or “Project” program by Microsoft July 23, 2019 Item #10 Page 98 of 213 Revised 6/15/17 Contract No. 4742 Page 83 of 104 Corporation to prepare the Baseline Construction Schedule and all updates thereto. The Contrac-tor shall submit to the Agency a CD-ROM data disk with all network information contained thereon, in a format readable by a Microsoft Windows 2000 system. The Agency will use a “Suretrak”, “Project” or equal software program for review of the Contractor’s schedule. Should the Contractor elect to use a scheduling program other than the “Suretrak” program by Primavera or “Project” program by Microsoft Corporation the Contractor shall provide the Engineer three copies of the substituted program that are fully licensed to the Agency and 32 class hours of on-site training by the program publisher for up to eight Agency staff members. The classes shall be presented on Mondays through Thursdays, inclusive, between the hours of 8:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m. The on-site training shall be held at 1635 Faraday Avenue, Carlsbad, California. The dates and times of the on-site training shall be submitted to the Engineer for approval five working days before the start of the on-site training. The on-site training shall be completed prior to the submittal of the first Baseline Construction Schedule. 6-1.2.5 Schedule Activities. Except for submittal activities, activity durations shall not be shorter than 1 working day nor longer than 15 working days, unless specifically and individually allowed by the Engineer. The Baseline Construction Schedule shall include between 100 and 500 activi-ties, including submittals, interfaces between utility companies and other agencies, project mile-stones and equipment and material deliveries. The number of activities will be sufficient, in the judgment of the Engineer, to communicate the Contractor’s plan for project execution, to accu-rately describe the project work, and to allow monitoring and evaluation of progress and of time impacts. Each activity’s description shall accurately define the work planned for the activity and each activity shall have recognizable beginning and end points. 6-1.2.6 Float. Float or slack time within the schedule is available without charge or compensation to whatever party or contingency first exhausts it. 6-1.2.7 Restraints to Activities. Any submittals, utility interfaces, or any furnishing of Agency supplied materials, equipment, or services, which may impact any activity’s construction shall be shown as a restraint to those activities. Time periods to accommodate the review and correction of submittals shall be included in the schedule. 6-1.2.8 Late Completion. A Baseline Construction Schedule showing a project duration longer than the specified contract duration will not be acceptable and will be grounds for determination of default by Contractor, per Section 6-4. 6-1.2.9 Early Completion. The Baseline Construction Schedule will show the Contractor’s plan to support and maintain the project for the entire contractual time span of the project. Should the Contractor propose a project duration shorter than contract duration, a complete Baseline Con- struction Schedule must be submitted, reflecting the shorter duration, in complete accordance with all schedule requirements of Section 6-1. The Engineer may choose to accept the Contrac-tor’s proposal of a project duration shorter than the duration specified; provided the Agency is satisfied the shortened Baseline Construction Schedule is reasonable and the Agency and all other entities, public and private, which interface with the project are able to support the provisions of the shortened Baseline Construction Schedule. The Agency’s acceptance of a shortened du- ration project will be confirmed through the execution of a contract change order revising the project duration and implementing all contractual requirements including liquidated damages in accordance with the revised duration. July 23, 2019 Item #10 Page 99 of 213 Revised 6/15/17 Contract No. 4742 Page 84 of 104 6-1.2.10 Engineer’s Review. The Construction Schedule is subject to the review of the Engineer. The Engineer’s determination that the Baseline Construction Schedule proposed by the Contrac- tor complies with the requirements of these supplemental provisions shall be a condition prece-dent to issuance of the Notice to Proceed by the Engineer. If the Engineer determines that the Construction Schedule does not meet the requirements of these specifications the Contractor shall correct the Construction Schedule to meet these specifications and resubmit it to the Engi-neer. Failure of the Contractor to obtain the Engineer’s determination that the initial Construction Schedule proposed by the Contractor complies with the requirements of these supplemental pro- visions within thirty (30) working days after the date of the preconstruction meeting shall be grounds for termination of the contract per Section 6-4. Days used by the Engineer to review the initial Construction Schedule will not be included in the 30 working days. The Engineer will review and return to the Contractor, with any comments, the Baseline Construc-tion Schedule within 15 working days of submittal. The Baseline Construction Schedule will be returned marked as per Sections 6-1.2.10.1 through 6-1.2.10.3. 6-1.2.10.1 “Accepted.” The Contractor may proceed with the project work upon issuance of the Notice to Proceed, and will receive payment for the schedule in accordance with Section 6-1.8.1. 6-1.2.10.2 “Accepted with Comments.” The Contractor may proceed with the project work upon issuance of the Notice to Proceed. The Contractor must resubmit the schedule incorporating the comments prior to receipt of payment per Section 6-1.8.1. 6-1.2.10.3 “Not Accepted.” The Contractor must resubmit the schedule incorporating the cor-rections and changes of the comments prior to receipt of payment per Section 6-1.8.1. The Notice to Proceed will not be issued by the Engineer if the changes of the comments are not submitted as required hereinbefore and marked “Accepted” or “Accepted with Comments” by the Engineer. The Contractor, at the sole option of the Engineer, may be considered as having defaulted the contract under the provisions of Section 6-4 DEFAULT BY CONTRACTOR if the changes of the comments are not submitted as required hereinbefore and marked “Accepted” by the Engineer. 6-1.3 Preparation of Schedule Updates and Revisions. The Contractor shall meet with the Engineer during the last week of each month to agree upon each activity’s schedule status and shall submit monthly updates of the Baseline Construction Schedule confirming the agreements no later than the fifth working day of the following month. The monthly update will be submitted on hard (paper) copy and electronic media conforming to Section 6-1.3.3 Electronic Media per the submittal requirements of Section 2-5.3 and will include each item and element of Sections 6-1.2 through 6-1.2.9 and 6-1.3.1 through 6-1.3.7. 6-1.3.1 Actual Activity Dates. The actual dates each activity was started and/or completed dur-ing the month. After first reporting an actual date, the Contractor shall not change that actual date in later updates without specific notification to the Engineer with the update. 6-1.3.2 Activity Percent Complete. For each activity underway at the end of the month, the Contractor shall report the percentage determined by the Engineer as complete for the activity. 6-1.3.3 Electronic Media. The schedule data disk shall be a CD-ROM, labeled with the project name and number, the Contractor’s name and the date of preparation of the schedule data disk. The schedule data disk shall be readable by the software specified in Section 6-1.2.4 “Schedule Software” and shall be free of file locking, encryption or any other protocol that would impede full access of all data stored on it. July 23, 2019 Item #10 Page 100 of 213 Revised 6/15/17 Contract No. 4742 Page 85 of 104 6-1.3.4 List of Changes. A list of all changes made to the activities or to the interconnecting logic, with an explanation for each change. 6-1.3.5 Change Orders. Each monthly update will include the addition of the network revisions reflecting the change orders approved in the previous month. The network revisions will be as agreed upon during the review and acceptance of the Contractor’s change orders. 6-1.3.6 Bar Chart. Each monthly update will include a chart showing individual tasks and their durations arranged with the tasks on the vertical axis and duration on the horizontal axis. The bar chart shall use differing texture patterns or distinctive line types to show the critical path. 6-1.4 Engineer’s Review of Updated Construction Schedule. The Engineer will review and return the Updated Construction Schedule to the Contractor, with any comments, within 5 working days of submittal. The Updated Construction Schedule will be returned marked as per Sections 6-1.4.1 through 6-1.4.3. Any Updated Construction Schedule marked “Accepted with Comments” or “Not Accepted” by the Engineer will be returned to the Contractor for correction. Upon resub-mittal the Engineer will review and return the resubmitted Updated Construction Schedule to the Contractor, with any comments, within 5 working days. Failure of the Contractor to submit a monthly updated construction schedule will invoke the same consequences as the Engineer re-turning a monthly updated construction schedule marked “Not Accepted”. 6-1.4.1 “Accepted.” The Contractor may proceed with the project work, and will receive payment for the schedule in accordance with Section 6-1.8.2. 6-1.4.2 “Accepted with Comments.” The Contractor may proceed with the project work. The Contractor must resubmit the Updated Construction Schedule to the Engineer incorporating the corrections and changes noted in the Engineer’s comments prior to receipt of payment per Sec- tion 6-1.8.2. 6-1.4.3 “Not Accepted.” The Contractor must resubmit the Updated Construction Schedule to the Engineer incorporating the corrections and changes noted in the Engineer’s comments prior to receipt of payment per Section 6-1.8.2. The Contractor, at the sole option of the Engineer, may be considered as having defaulted the contract under the provisions of Section 6-4 DEFAULT BY CONTRACTOR if the changes of the comments are not submitted and marked “Accepted” by the Engineer before the last day of the month in which the Updated Construction Schedule is due. If the Contractor fails to submit the corrected Updated Construction Schedule as required herein the Contractor may elect to proceed with the project at its own risk. Should the Contractor elect not to proceed with the project, any resulting delay, impact, or disruption to the project will be the Contractor’s responsibility. 6-1.5 Late Completion or Milestone Dates. Should the Schedule Update indicate a completion or contractually required milestone date later than the properly adjusted contract or milestone duration, the Agency may withhold Liquidated Damages for the number of days late. Should a subsequent “Accepted” Schedule Update remove all or a portion of the delay, all or the allocated portion of the previously held Liquidated Damages shall be released in the monthly payment to the Contractor immediately following the “Accepted” schedule. 6-1.6 Interim Revisions. Should the actual or projected progress of the work become substan-tially different from that depicted in the Project Schedule, independently of and prior to the next monthly update, the Contractor will submit a revised Baseline Construction Schedule, with a list July 23, 2019 Item #10 Page 101 of 213 Revised 6/15/17 Contract No. 4742 Page 86 of 104 and explanation of each change made to the schedule. The Revised Construction Schedule will be submitted per the submittal requirements of Section 2-5.3 and per the schedule review and acceptance requirements of Section 6-1, including but not limited to the acceptance and payment provisions. As used in this section “substantially different” means a time variance greater than 5 percent of the number of days of duration for the project. 6-1.7 Final Schedule Update. The Contractor shall prepare and submit a final schedule update when one hundred percent of the construction work is completed. The Contractor’s Final Sched-ule Update must accurately represent the actual dates for all activities. The final schedule update shall be prepared and reviewed per Sections 6-1.3 Preparation of Schedule Updates and Revi-sions and 6-1. 4 Engineer’s Review of Updated Construction Schedule. Acceptance of the final schedule update is required for completion of the project and release of any and all funds retained per Section 9-3.2. 6-1.8 Measurement and Payment of Construction Schedule. The Contractor’s preparation, revision and maintenance of the Construction Schedule are incidental to the work and no separate payment will be made therefore. 6-2 PROSECUTION OF WORK. To minimize public inconvenience and possible hazard and to restore street and other work areas to their original condition and state of usefulness as soon as practicable, the Contractor shall diligently prosecute the Work to completion. If the Engineer determines that the Contractor is failing to prosecute the Work to the proper extent, the Contractor shall, upon orders from the Engineer, immediately take steps to remedy the situation. All costs of prosecuting the Work as described herein shall be included in the Contractor’s Bid. Should the Contractor fail to take the necessary steps to fully accomplish said purposes, after orders of the Engineer, the Engineer may suspend the work in whole or part, until the Contractor takes said steps. As soon as possible under the provisions of the Specifications, the Contractor shall backfill all excavations and restore to usefulness all improvements existing prior to the start of the Work. If Work is suspended through no fault of the Agency, all expenses and losses incurred by the Contractor during such suspensions shall be borne by the Contractor. If the Contractor fails to properly provide for public safety, traffic, and protection of the Work during periods of suspension, the Agency may elect to do so, and deduct the cost thereof from monies due the Contractor. Such actions will not relieve the Contractor from liability. 6-2.1 Order of Work. The work to be done shall consist of furnishing all labor, equipment and materials, and performing all operations necessary to complete the Project Work as shown on the Project Plans and as specified in the Specifications. 6-2.3 Project Meetings. The Engineer will establish the time and location of weekly Project Meetings. The Contractor’s Representative shall attend each Project Meeting. The Project Rep-resentative shall be the individual determined under Section 7-6, “The Contractor’s Representa-tive”. No separate payment for attendance of the Contractor, the Contractor’s Representative or any other employee or subcontractor or subcontractor’s employee at these meetings will be made. 6-3 SUSPENSION OF WORK. 6-3.1 General. The Work may be suspended in whole or in part when determined by the Engi-neer that the suspension is necessary in the interest of the Agency. The Contractor shall comply July 23, 2019 Item #10 Page 102 of 213 Revised 6/15/17 Contract No. 4742 Page 87 of 104 immediately with any written order of the Engineer. Such suspension shall be without liability to the Contractor on the part of the Agency except as otherwise specified in Section 6-6.3. 6-3.2 Archaeological and Paleontological Discoveries. If discovery is made of items of ar-chaeological or paleontological interest, the Contractor shall immediately cease excavation in the area of discovery and shall not continue until ordered by the Engineer. When resumed, excavation operations within the area of discovery shall be as directed by the Engineer. Discoveries which may be encountered may include, but not be limited to, dwelling sites, stone implements or other artifacts, animal bones, human bones, and fossils. The Contractor shall be entitled to an extension of time and compensation in accordance with the provisions of Section 6-6. 6-4 DEFAULT BY CONTRACTOR. If the Contractor fails to begin delivery of material and equipment, to commence the Work within the time specified, to maintain the rate of delivery of material, to execute the Work in the manner and at such locations as specified, or fails to maintain the Work schedule which will insure the Agency’s interest, or, if the Contractor is not carrying out the intent of the Contract, the Agency may serve written notice upon the Contractor and the Surety on its Faithful Performance Bond demanding satisfactory compliance with the Contract. The Contract may be canceled by the Board without liability for damage, when in the Board’s opinion the Contractor is not complying in good faith, has become insolvent, or has assigned or subcontracted any part of the Work without the Board’s consent. In the event of such cancellation, the Contractor will be paid the actual amount due based on Contract Unit Prices or lump sums bid and the quantity of the Work completed at the time of cancellation, less damages caused to the Agency by acts of the Contractor. The Contractor, in having tendered a Bid, shall be deemed to have waived any and all claims for damages because of cancellation of Contract for any such reason. If the Agency declares the Contract canceled for any of the above reasons, written notice to that effect shall be served upon the Surety. The Surety shall, within five (5) days, assume control and perform the Work as successor to the Contractor. If the Surety assumes any part of the Work, it shall take the Contractor’s place in all respects for that part, and shall be paid by the Agency for all work performed by it in accordance with the Contract. If the Surety assumes the entire Contract, all money due the Contractor at the time of its default shall be payable to the Surety as the Work progresses, subject to the terms of the Contract. If the Surety does not assume control and perform the Work within 5 days after receiving notice of cancellation, or fails to continue to comply, the Agency may exclude the Surety from the prem-ises. The Agency may then take possession of all material and equipment and complete the Work by Agency forces, by letting the unfinished Work to another Contractor, or by a combination of such methods. In any event, the cost of completing the Work shall be charged against the Con-tractor and its Surety and may be deducted from any money due or becoming due from the Agency. If the sums due under the Contract are insufficient for completion, the Contractor or Surety shall pay to the Agency within 5 days after the completion, all costs in excess of the sums due. The provisions of this section shall be in addition to all other rights and remedies available to the Agency under law. July 23, 2019 Item #10 Page 103 of 213 Revised 6/15/17 Contract No. 4742 Page 88 of 104 6-5 TERMINATION OF CONTRACT. The Board may terminate the Contract at its own dis-cretion or when conditions encountered during the Work make it impossible or impracticable to proceed, or when the Agency is prevented from proceeding with the Contract by act of God, by law, or by official action of a public authority. 6-6 DELAYS AND EXTENSIONS OF TIME. 6-6.1 General. If delays are caused by unforeseen events beyond the control of the Contractor, such delays will entitle the Contractor to an extension of time as provided herein, but the Contrac-tor will not be entitled to damages or additional payment due to such delays, except as provided in 6-6.3. Such unforeseen events may include: war, government regulations, labor disputes, strikes, fires, floods, adverse weather or elements necessitating cessation of work, inability to obtain materials, labor or equipment, required extra work, or other specific events as may be further described in the Specifications. No extension of time will be granted for a delay caused by the Contractor’s inability to obtain materials unless the Contractor furnishes to the Engineer documentary proof. the proof must be provided in a timely manner in accordance with the sequence of the Contractor’s operations and the approved construction schedule. If delays beyond the Contractor’s control are caused by events other than those mentioned above, the Engineer may deem an extension of time to be in the best interests of the Agency. The Con-tractor will not be entitled to damages or additional payment due to such delays, except as pro-vided in Section 6-6.3.

July 23, 2019 Item #10 Page 116 of 213 Revised 6/15/17 Contract No. 4742 Page 101 of 104 Whenever immediate action is required to prevent injury, death, or property damage, and precau-tions which are the Contractor’s responsibility have not been taken and are not reasonably ex-pected to be taken, the Agency may, after reasonable attempt to notify the Contractor, cause such precautions to be taken and shall charge the cost thereof against the Contractor, or may deduct such cost from any amount due or becoming due from the Agency. Agency action or inaction under such circumstances shall not be construed as relieving the Contractor or its Surety from liability. Payment shall not relieve the Contractor from its obligations under the Contract; nor shall such payment be construed to be acceptance of any of the Work. Payment shall not be construed as the transfer of ownership of any equipment or materials to the Agency. Responsibility of owner-ship shall remain with the Contractor who shall be obligated to store any fully or partially com-pleted work or structure for which payment has been made; or replace any materials or equipment required to be provided under the Contract which may be damaged, lost, stolen or otherwise degraded in any way prior to acceptance of the Work, except as provided in Section 6-10. Guarantee periods shall not be affected by any payment but shall commence on the date of re-cordation of the “Notice of Completion.” If, within the time fixed by law, a properly executed notice to stop payment is filed with the Agency, due to the Contractor’s failure to pay for labor or materials used in the Work, all money due for such labor or materials will be withheld from payment to the Contractor in accordance with appli-cable laws. At the expiration of 35 days from the date of acceptance of the Work by the Board, or as pre-scribed by law, the amount deducted from the final estimate and retained by the Agency will be paid to the Contractor except such amounts as are required by law to be withheld by properly executed and filed notices to stop payment, or as may be authorized by the Contract to be further retained. 9-3.2 Partial and Final Payment. The Engineer will, after award of Contract, establish a closure date for the purpose of making monthly progress payments. The Contractor may request in writing that such monthly closure date be changed. The Engineer may approve such request when it is compatible with the Agency’s payment procedure. Each month, the Engineer will make an approximate measurement of the work performed to the closure date as basis for making monthly progress payments. The estimated value will be based on contract unit prices, completed change order work and as provided for in Section 9-2 of these General Provisions. Progress payments shall be made no later than thirty (30) calendar days after the closure date. Five (5) working days following the closure date, the Engineer shall complete the detailed progress pay estimate and submit it to the Contractor for the Contractor’s information. Should the Contractor assert that additional payment is due, the Contractor shall within ten (10) days of receipt of the progress estimate, submit a supplemental payment request to the Engineer with adequate justification supporting the amount of supplemental payment request. Upon receipt of the supplemental payment request, the Engineer shall, as soon as practicable after receipt, determine whether the supplemental payment request is a proper payment request. If the Engi-neer determines that the supplemental payment request is not proper, then the request shall be returned to the Contractor as soon as practicable, but not later than seven (7) days after receipt. The returned request shall be accompanied by a document setting forth in writing the reasons why the supplemental payment request was not proper. In conformance with Public Contract Code Section 20104.50, the City shall make payments within thirty (30) days after receipt of an July 23, 2019 Item #10 Page 117 of 213 Revised 6/15/17 Contract No. 4742 Page 102 of 104 undisputed and properly submitted supplemental payment request from the Contractor. If pay-ment of the undisputed supplemental payment request is not made within thirty (30) days after receipt by the Engineer, then the City shall pay interest to the Contractor equivalent to the legal rate set forth in subdivision (a) of Section 685.010 of the Code of Civil Procedure. From each progress estimate, 10 percent will be deducted and retained by the Agency, and the remainder less the amount of all previous payments will be paid. After 50 percent of the Work has been completed and if progress on the Work is satisfactory, the deduction to be made from re- maining progress estimates and from the final estimate may be limited to $500 or 10 percent of the first half of total Contract amount, whichever is greater. No progress payment made to the Contractor or its sureties will constitute a waiver of the liqui-dated damages under 6-9. As provided in Section 22300 of the California Public Contract Code, the Contractor may substi-tute securities for any monies withheld by the Agency to ensure performance under the Contract. After final inspection, the Engineer will make a Final Payment Estimate and process a corre-sponding payment. This estimate will be in writing and shall be for the total amount owed the Contractor as determined by the Engineer and shall be itemized by the contract bid item and change order item with quantities and payment amounts and shall show all deductions made or to be made for prior payments and amounts to be deducted under provisions of the contract. All prior estimates and progress payments shall be subject to correction in the Final Payment Esti-mate. The Contractor shall have 30 calendar days from receipt of the Final Payment Estimate to make written statement disputing any bid item or change order item quantity or payment amount.

The government studies are intended to close knowledge and data gaps about the potential harmful impacts of tire crumb particles, especially exposure to and absorption of toxic chemicals by ingestion and the dermal pathway.6 Another issue is that Prop 65 warning signage may be required in future for any synthetic turf fields containing Prop 65 listed carcinogenic or reproductive toxins above a specified threshold. I am also requesting you consider public concerns7 about the sustainability8 of synthetic turf over the long-run. CALRecycle is a taxpayer-funded CA state recycling program that also promotes products made from scrap tires, as an alternative to scrap tires ending up in landfills.9 Although generally speaking, recycling is very good for our environment, there is also public concern about the sustainability 10 efficacy of this recycling program in regard to synthetic turf. According to a CALRecycle report11 perhaps as much as 85% of synthetic field material is not recycled and ends up in a landfill.

Public concern prompts us to err on the side of caution when it comes to protecting the health of children, athletes, residents and our environment. Some of you took action in December of 2017 to make public health a priority when you approved an organics-first landscape maintenance policy for all Carlsbad public open spaces. I hope you agree that the public concern over health impacts of tire crumb infill in synthetic turf deserves similar consideration. Thank you. Thank you. Background information: A Senator Jerry Hill, CA-Dem, San Mateo County, introduced the original SB-47 bill, Environmental health: artificial turf, Due to "mounting public concerns about potential health impacts to children and athletes who are exposed to the tire crumb infill in synthetic turf and playgrounds, and to the environment."13 He said that "we have a responsibility to ensure that our children are not being harmed by materials used to make their fields and playground surfaces. "14 "SB 47 requires OEHHA, in consultation with CalRecycle, DPH, and DTSC, to submit a report to the Legislature by July 1, 2017, analyzing turf containing waste tires for potential adverse health impacts." 15 The original bill, which died in committee, would have required a health study, and prohibited contracts or installation of synthetic turf with tire crumb infill until January 1, 2018, at public or private schools and local government recreational facilities.16 The amended bill would have required any school or local government to approve artificial turf based on a properly noticed agenda item, where data on alternatives are gathered and considered, and public comment time is provided for; and also requested a health study be done.17 13 https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billAnalysisClient.xhtml?bill id=201520160SB47, see Bill Analysis, 3/16/15-Senate Environmental Quality 14 ibid 15 ibid 16 ibid 17 ,https://legi nfo. legislature.ca .gov /faces/bi!

"18 and only the health study survived the bill. According to the SB 47 bill, "Tire rubber crumb contains a range of organic contaminants and heavy metals that can volatilize into the air and/or leach into the percolating rainwater, thereby posing a risk to and in the environment. Questions also arise as to the direct exposure risks associated with contact with the crumb rubber and whether ingestion, inhalation, eye or skin/abrasion contact with the rubber present health risks." In response to a 11/ 2015 written request19 by the CA Office of Environmental Health Hazard Assessment (OEHHA) for assistance in its Environmental Health Study of Synthetic Turf0, the National Toxicology Program (NTP) is conducting research on the "health impacts of chemicals released from tire crumb infill in synthetic turf'.21 The NTP research program will be working together with the CA OEHHA Synthetic Turf Study and the Federal Research Action Plan on Recycled Tire Crumb Used on Playing Fields, begun in 2016.22 According to the Federal Research Action Plan: "Concerns have been raised by the public about the safety of recycled tire crumb used in playing fields in the United States. Limited studies have not.shown an elevated health risk from playing on fields with tire crumb, but the existing studies do not comprehensively evaluate the concerns about health risks from exposure to tire crumb. Because of the need for additional information, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention/Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry (ATSDR), and the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) are launching a multi-agency Federal Research Action Plan on Recycled Tire Crumb Used on Playing Fields and Playgrounds to study key environmental human health questions."23 According to the Agency for Toxic Substances Disease Registry (ATSDR) 2017 report's executive summary, "Over the past several years, parents, athletes, schools, and communities have raised concerns about the safety of recycled tire crumb rubber used as infill for playing fields and playgrounds in the United States. The public has expressed concerns that the use of these fields could potentially be related to certain health effects. Studies to date have not shown an elevated health risk from playing on 18 ,https://www.sfchronicle.com/bayarea/article/California-to-study-health-effects-of-crumb- 6380727.php 19 https://oehha.ca.gov/media/downloads/risk-assessment/general-info/oehhantp110915.pdf 20 https :// oeh ha .ca .gov /risk-assessment/synthetic-turf-studies 21 https://ntp.n iehs. ni h.gov / results/areas/synthetictu rf /index.htm I 22 https ://ntp. n iehs. ni h.gov /resu Its/ areas/ synthetictu rf /index.html 23 https://www.epa.gov/sites/production/files/2016- 02/documents/federal research action plan tirecrumb final 2.pdf 4 July 23, 2019 Item #10 Page 208 of 213 CALRecycle is a taxpayer-funded CA state recycling program that also promotes products made from scrap tires, as an alternative to scrap ti res ending up in landfills.26 Although generally speaking, recycling is very good for our environment, there is also public concern about the sustainability27 efficacy of this recycling program in regard to synthetic turf. According to a CALRecycle report28 perhaps as much as 85% of synthetic field material is not recycled and ends up in a landfill. Degradation of the plastic can potentially produce green house gases, other potentially toxic chemicals29, micro-plastic pollution, and tons of the tire crumb infill can potentially degrade, leach out and off-gas into the environment.

According to the Sports Turf Managers Association, the application of such coated rubber granulate can reduce a field's surface temperature by three to ten degrees, over traditional non-coated rubber granulate. The coated rubber granulate retains like resiliency performance characteristics to that of traditional non-coated rubber granulate within fields. The application of coated rubber granulate represents an advancement of technology in synthetic turf systems. Other public agencies in California have recently applied coated rubber granulate to their synthetic turf field projects. Its effectiveness at Stagecoach Community Park will be monitored, for possible future application to other synthetic turf field projects in the . Carlsbad parks inventory. Fiscal Analysis Estimated construction costs for this project are $1,571,830. This estimate includes a premium of $139,310 for the application of coated rubber granulate over traditional non-coated rubber granulate within these fields. Funding for the project, in the amount of $1,800,000, was approved in the FY 2018-19 Capital Improvement Program Budget. Maintenance costs for these fields are expected to decrease with the installation of the new synthetic turf, due to the repair of most splits/tears being covered under a normal use warranty. Next Steps Staff will release the contract documents, plans and specifications for the solicitation of bids. The bid solicitation period will be at least 30 days. Staff will then evaluate the responsive bids received, and subsequently return to City Council with a recommendation to award a construction contract. The project is expected to be completed within 90 days after the award of a construction contract. Environmental Evaluation (CEQA) This project has been determined to be exempt from environmental review per CEQA Guidelines Section 15301, minor alteration of existing facilities. Public Notification This item was noticed in accordance with the Ralph M. Brown Act and was available for public viewing and review at least 72 hours prior to the scheduled meeting date. Staff included the athletic groups that ordinarily play on these multi-purpose fields in the review/revision of the project plans. Staff also advised those groups of the fields' scheduled closure during construction. Additionally, staff will provide general public notification of the fields' scheduled closure via the placement of signage on site, and the posting of bulletins on the Parks & Recreation Department webpage.
