Executive Summary
The water and sewer mains along Carlsbad Boulevard north and south of Cannon Road and on
Cannon Road to just east of the railroad tracks were installed between 1958 and 1971. These
pipelines need to be replaced or rehabilitated to ensure the reliability of the water and
wastewater systems, and compliance with current city and Carlsbad Municipal Water District
design and construction standards.
This project will abandon or remove 7,600 feet of potable water distribution mains, construct
5,000 feet of new water mains and replace and/or rehabilitate 1,500 feet of sewer mains and
access holes along Carlsbad Boulevard and Cannon Road, as shown in the location map
attached as Exhibit 6.
Staff recommend that the CMWD Board and the City Council adopt resolutions to award a
construction contract to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder, SEMA Construction, Inc.,
in an amount not to exceed $4,783,628, for the construction of Carlsbad Boulevard Water Line
Improvements at Terramar, Capital Improvement Program Project No. 5048, and Carlsbad
Boulevard Sewer Line Improvements at Terramar, Capital Improvement Program Project No.
5503-20, attached as Exhibits 1 and 2. An additional appropriation of $1,750,100 is required to
fully fund Project No. 5048.
The CMWD Board and the City Council must approve all formally bid contracts when the value
exceeds $200,000 under Carlsbad Municipal Code Sections 3.28.080(C), 3.28.080(E) and
3.28.080(I)(6).
The project requires a license agreement with the North County Transit District (NCTD) because
it will install pipes under the railroad tracks. The authority to execute license agreements with
indemnities rests with the CMWD Board and the City Council, though the CMWD Board and the
City Council may delegate that authority to the Executive Manager or the City Manager,
respectively, in accordance with Carlsbad Municipal Code Section 2.12.035(L).
To minimize delay and facilitate the agreement approval process for this and future
construction projects involving NCTD’s property and right-of-way, staff recommend that:
•The CMWD Board adopt the resolution attached as Exhibit 3, providing the
approval specifically needed for the Carlsbad Boulevard Water Line
Improvements at Terramar Project;
•The CMWD Board adopt the resolution attached as Exhibit 4, delegating authority
to the Executive Manager to execute standard NCTD license agreements on
behalf of the CMWD; and
•The City Council adopt the resolution attached as Exhibit 5, delegating authority
to the City Manager to execute standard NCTD license agreements on behalf of
the city.

Explanation & Analysis
Overview
The project consists of two Capital Improvement Program projects – Carlsbad Boulevard Water
Line Improvements at Terramar, Project No. 5048, and Carlsbad Boulevard Sewer Line
Improvements at Terramar, Project No. 5503-20, which is part of the Sewer Line Rehabilitation
and Replacement Program, Project No. 5503. The two projects were offered for bids together
with four bid schedules and will be constructed under a single contract.
•On Feb. 13, 2024, the City Council and the CMWD Board approved the project’s
plans and specifications and authorized staff to seek bids for construction
(Resolution Nos. 2024-027 and 1728, respectively)
•On March 27, 2024, staff received eight bids for construction, ranging from
$4,783,628 to $7,589,775. The low bid was within 5% of the engineer’s estimate
of $4,593,000. An additional appropriation of funds at the time of contract
award was anticipated and noted when the project was authorized for bidding.
•Staff reviewed the bid proposals and determined SEMA Construction, Inc. to be a
responsible bidder and its bid of $4,783,628 to be responsive.
Staff recommend that the City Council and the CMWD Board accept the bids, award a
construction contract to SEMA Construction, Inc. and authorize an additional appropriation of
$1,750,100 to fully fund CIP Project No. 5048.
NCTD License Agreement
NCTD has policies regulating and governing the use of its property and right-of-way, requiring
standard agreements and permits. A portion of the project in Cannon Road involves trenchless
water main construction under the NCTD-controlled railroad tracks at Cannon Road. The
district’s policies require a license agreement for the water pipeline utility crossing beneath the
NCTD railroad tracks.
The authority to execute the license agreement rests with the CMWD Board and the City
Council but it may be delegated to the Executive Manager or the City Manager, respectively, as
provided in Carlsbad Municipal Code Section 2.12.035, subsection (L), which details the powers
and duties of the City Manager.
NCTD license agreements are not unique to this project. These agreements and permits are
required for any utility infrastructure or street improvement within the NCTD right-of-way, or
that cross under the railroad tracks. The swift processing of these agreements and permits
reduces the potential for cost increases due to construction delays.
Because of this, staff desire to streamline the approval process for these license agreements
and permits for future Capital Improvement Program projects and request that the CMWD
Board and the City Council delegate the authority to sign these agreements and permits to the
Executive Manager or the City Manager, respectively, when the agreements are:
•Necessary for utility, street improvement or other public works construction including
Capital Improvement Program projects
•Recommended by the City Engineer, Deputy City Engineer or District Engineer
•Approved as to form by the City Attorney’s Office or the Office of the General Counsel

Public notification
Staff conducted early public outreach in conformance with Council Policy No. 84, Development
Project Public Involvement Policy, to initiate communication with neighboring residents within
600 feet of the project site. Public notices were mailed in June 2023, and public notice signs
were posted at the project site.
Staff received no inquiries from adjacent or nearby property owners with questions or concerns
regarding the project.
•On Sept. 20, 2023, a Planning Commission public hearing was held in which the
project’s coastal development permit was approved. No public comment was
received at the hearing and the project was unanimously approved.
•On Oct. 12, 2023, the California Coastal Commission, which reserves the
permitting authority for the area in and north of Cannon Road, reported a
coastal development permit waiver (CDP Waiver 6-23-0472-W). No public
comment was received at the hearing.
The work will involve replacement of water meters, reconnection of private water services, and
restoration of private landscape and surface improvements and will be coordinated with the
property owners. Staff will engage a consultant to provide communication and outreach
services before construction to coordinate with nearby residents. The Executive Manager or
designee will procure these professional services in accordance with existing master
agreements and the authority provided in Carlsbad Municipal Code Section 3.28.060(D).
Fiscal Analysis
The total cost of $6,369,628 for Capital Improvement Program Project Nos. 5048 and 5503-20 is
detailed in the tables below.
An appropriation from the Water Connection Fund totaling $1,750,100 is required to fully fund
the conveyance capacity component of Project No. 5048. Staff will make a related reduction of
$904,100 from the previously appropriated $4,730,000 for Project No. 5048 in the Water
Replacement Fund because these project costs are related to conveyance capacity and can be
paid for out of the requested Water Connection Fund appropriation. The net additional funding
needed, from both funds, is $846,000.
Sufficient funding is available in the Water Connection Fund for the requested appropriation for
Project No. 5048. Sufficient funding is also available in the Sewer Replacement Fund for Project
No. 5503-20.

Carlsbad Municipal Code Section 3.28.040(C)(5) authorizes the Executive Manager and the City
Manager or designee to approve change orders in the amount equal to the contingency set at
the time the project is awarded. For this project, the amount is a total of $718,000.
Construction management and inspection services are necessary for the project. Staff plan to
issue a task order for these services in an amount not to exceed $718,000 through the
Executive Manager’s delegated authority under an existing master agreement for as-needed
horizontal construction management and inspection services, authorized by the CMWD Board
in Resolution No. 1644. The costs for these services will be billed to the appropriate water or
sewer funding source in proportion to the construction contract amounts for each portion of
the project.
Next Steps
With the City Council and the CMWD Board’s acceptance of bids and award of the construction
contract to SEMA Construction, Inc., staff will issue a purchase order, schedule a pre-
construction meeting with SEMA Construction, Inc. and issue a notice to proceed for
construction of the project.
With approval of the proposed resolutions, the Executive Manager or the City Manager will be
authorized to execute NCTD license agreements for this and future Capital Improvement
Program projects.
Staff will engage the consultants for community outreach, construction management and
inspection services, and environmental monitoring services during construction upon execution
of the agreements for those services.
The duration of the construction contract is an estimated 12 months, not including rainy days
and delays for change orders that may extend the contract duration. Construction is expected
to begin in mid-2024 and be completed in mid-2025. A notice of completion to release bonds
issued for the project will be recorded once the project is completed.
Environmental Evaluation
In accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act procedures and CEQA Guidelines
Section 1508 through 15097, a program environmental impact report (State Clearinghouse No.
2012021006) was certified by the City Council on Nov. 13, 2012, for the Sewer and Water
Master Plans. The master plans were updated in 2019 and 2022. On Sept. 20, 2023, the
Planning Commission adopted Resolution No. 7493, to approve a third addendum to the
program environmental impact report for the Sewer and Water Master Plan. Therefore, no
further environmental analysis is required.

LICENSE AGREEMENT
THIS LICENSE AGREEMENT (“Agreement”) is made and entered into as of the effective date of
____________________________, 2024 (“Effective Date”) by and between the North County Transit
District (“NCTD”), a public agency existing under the laws of the State of California, pursuant to California
Public Utilities Code sections 125000, et seq. and Carlsbad Municipal Water District (“Licensee”).
RECITALS
A. NCTD has policies regulating and governing the use of its property and Right-of-Way (“ROW”)
(collectively, the “Property”).
B. Licensee has applied for the issuance of a License for NCTD Property in accordance with such
policies and NCTD has agreed to allow Licensee to use that portion of the ROW at milepost 231.37
identified in Exhibit “A” ("License Area"), subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement.
C. NCTD and Licensee are parties to NCTD Agreement No. 231.37-969-PL-CSBD dated April 24,
1969, (“Original License”), to construct and maintain one (1) ten-inch (10’) water pipeline at the
Cannon Road crossing in Carlsbad (“Existing Facility”), attached as Exhibit “C”.
D. Licensee desires to remove and replace the Existing Facility and document the increase in pipe
size to twelve inches (12”).
E. NCTD and Licensee agree this Agreement shall replace and supersede all terms and conditions of
the Original License and agree to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Agreement.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the mutual promises contained herein,
the parties agree as follows:
1.License to Use. In consideration of the covenants and conditions set forth in this Agreement,
NCTD licenses and permits Licensee to own, operate and maintain a twelve-inch (12”) Polyvinyl
Chloride (PVC) water pipeline inside a twenty-four-inch (24”) steel casing and related
appurtenances (“Water Pipeline”), at milepost 231.37 in the City of Carlsbad, as depicted in Exhibit
“A” (“Facility”).
2.Authority Not Exclusive. This License is non-exclusive. The Licensee shall respect the rights
and property of NCTD and other authorized users of the ROW, easements, power poles, street

light poles, vaults, and conduits. Except as otherwise required by applicable law, disputes between
the Licensee and parties other than NCTD over the use , of the easements, power poles, street
light poles, vaults, conduits and other rights-of-way pursuant to this Agreement shall be submitted
to NCTD for resolution. Licensee expressly agrees the Facility shall not interfere with any use of
the surface property.
3.Relocation. Licensee acknowledges that the License Area is used in connection with NCTD’s
public purpose and other services to the public and agrees that such uses by NCTD are superior
in all respects to all uses by Licensee. Licensee shall, at Licensee's sole expense and within thirty
(30) days after receiving written notice from NCTD, protect, temporarily relocate, or remove the
Facility if NCTD determines, in its sole and absolute discretion that the Facility is inconsistent or
interferes with NCTD’s current or planned use of the License Area or ROW. In consideration of
NCTD’s agreement to enter into this Agreement, Licensee hereby waives any and all rights it may
now have, or hereafter obtain, to any “relocation assistance benefits” pursuant to the Federal
Uniform Relocation Assistance Act (42 U.S.C. § 4601 et seq.), the California Relocation Assistance
law (Cal. Gov. Code § 7260 et seq.) or any other statute that replaces or provides rights similar to
such statutes, if NCTD requires Licensee to relocate the Facility or makes use of the ROW in such
a way as to ‘displace’ Licensee from the License Area. Licensee shall in the future execute any
further documentation of the release and waiver provided hereby as NCTD may reasonably require.
4.Compensation. Pursuant to Board Policy No. 11 and Administrative Policy and Procedure DSD-
4000, NCTD is entitled to recover fair market value payment as compensation for the License. The
compensation includes the limited authorized non-transit use of the Property (“Incidental Use Fee”)
and the annual recurring fee to cover NCTD’s administrative costs (“Annually Recurring
Administrative Fee”). The Incidental Use Fee shall be two thousand two hundred eighty dollars and
00/100 ($2,280.00) and the Annually Recurring Administration Fee shall be two hundred twenty-
eight dollars and 00/100 ($228.00). The total amount Licensee shall pay to NCTD is the sum of
$2,508.00 per year ("License Fee") in advance, commencing on the Effective Date. The License
Fee is subject to adjustment after the Effective Date pursuant to the Board Approved Cost Recovery
Fee Schedule that is published annually, as may be amended from time to time, but no more than
once per year on the anniversary of the Effective Date (each such date called an "Anniversary
Reset Date").
4.1 Nothing in this Section 4 shall affect the right of NCTD to require Licensee to relocate or
remove the Facility as set forth in Section 3 and Section 5.2.
4.2 Late Charge. Licensee acknowledges that late payment by Licensee to NCTD of License
Fee, or other sums due under this Agreement will cause NCTD to incur costs not contemplated
by this Agreement, the exact amount of which will be extremely difficult to ascertain. Such
costs include, but are not limited to, processing and accounting charges and late charges
which may be imposed on NCTD. Accordingly, if any installment of License Fee or any other
sum due from Licensee shall not be received by NCTD or NCTD's designee within thirty (30)
days after such amount shall be due, then, without any requirement for notice from NCTD,
Licensee shall pay to NCTD a late charge equal to ten percent (10%) of such overdue amount.
The parties hereby agree that such late charge represents a fair and reasonable estimate of
the costs NCTD will incur by reason of late payment by Licensee. Acceptance of such late
charge by NCTD shall in no event constitute a waiver of Licensee's default with respect to
such overdue amount, nor prevent NCTD from exercising any of the other rights and remedies
granted under this Agreement or at law.
4.3 Payment of License Fee. Payments shall be made payable to NCTD at 810 Mission Avenue,
Oceanside, California 92054; provided that NCTD may by written notice to Licensee direct
that the License Fee be made payable to NCTD at such address as NCTD may designate in
May 14, 2024 Item #5 Page 16 of 41

policies regarding NCTD’s ROW and all other NCTD ordinances, rules and regulations.
Licensee shall comply with all applicable laws, rules, and regulations of the Federal, State,

5.2 Licensee acknowledges that the Property is used in connection with NCTD’s public purpose
and other services to the public and agrees that such uses by NCTD are superior in all
respects to all uses by Licensee. Licensee's use of the License Area must not in any way
interfere with NCTD's continuing control over the Property or NCTD's expressed continued
ability to carry out its functions. NCTD shall have the right, without further liability to Licensee,
to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Sections 12, 13 and 14 in order to maintain continuing
control over the License Area or NCTD’s expressed continued ability to carry out its functions.
5.3 Licensee shall not cause or permit any Hazardous Material to be used, stored, transported,
generated, or disposed in or about the License Area by Licensee, Licensee's agents,
employees, contractors, licensees, or invitees. "Hazardous Material" means any hazardous,
toxic, or infectious substance, material, or waste which is or becomes regulated by any local
governmental entity, the State of California, or the United States Government under any law,
regulation or ordinance regulating or controlling any Hazardous Material (the "Hazardous
Materials Laws"), including, without limitation, any material, or substance which is: (i) defined
as a "hazardous waste," "extremely hazardous waste" or "restricted hazardous waste" under

pursuant to § 101 of the Comprehensive Environmental Response Compensation and Liability
Act, 42 U.S.C. § 9601 et seq. (42 U.S.C. § 9601).
5.4 No use, construction, or maintenance by Licensee or on Licensee's behalf will interfere with
any railroad operations on the ROW in the License Area.
5.5 Licensee shall not cross or permit the crossing over of the railroad tracks on the ROW except

insurance in the amounts, coverage, and terms and conditions specified in Exhibit “B,”
INSURANCE REQUIREMENTS. The policies must name in the endorsements and schedules as
additional insureds NCTD and its directors, officers, agents, employees, and designated
volunteers, the National Railroad Passenger Corporation (“AMTRAK”), the Southern California
Regional Rail Authority (“SCRRA” or “Metrolink”), and the Burlington Northern Santa Fe Railway
Company (“BNSF”), and any other entity performing maintenance work on the ROW, any other
entity providing passenger rail operation services for NCTD on the ROW, and any other entity
providing dispatch services to NCTD for the ROW, their officers, agents, and employees. ”
NCTD takes no responsibility for the protection of Licensee’s property from acts of vandalism by
third parties. The insurance requirements may be changed by NCTD upon giving of notice to
Licensee; provided that the requirements set forth in Exhibit B shall be the minimum insurance
requirements during the Term.
7.Indemnification. Licensee agrees to protect, save, defend, and hold harmless NCTD and its
Board and each member of the Board, AMTRAK, SCRRA, and BNSF, and their respective officers,
agents and employees from any and all liability or claim of liability, loss or expense, including
defense costs and legal fees and claims for damages related to the installation, operation and
maintenance of the Water Pipeline, whether directly or indirectly arising from or connected with an
act or omission of Licensee, or any employee, agent, invitee, or contractor of Licensee, or other
person acting by or on behalf of Licensee on or about the ROW, including, but not limited to, liability,
expense, and claims for bodily injury, death, personal injury, or property damage; provided,
however, that nothing herein shall relieve any party indemnified hereunder from liability to the extent
that such liability arises from such party's negligence or willful misconduct. The requirements as
to the types and limits of insurance coverage to be maintained by Licensee as required by Section
6, and any approval of such insurance by NCTD, are not intended to and shall not in any manner
limit or qualify the liabilities and obligations otherwise assumed by Licensee pursuant to this
Agreement, including but not limited to the provisions concerning indemnification. This indemnity
shall not require payment of a claim by NCTD or any of its officers, employees, consultants,
contractors, and agents as a condition precedent to NCTD’s recovery hereunder. Licensee’s
obligation to indemnify hereunder shall not be restricted to insurance proceeds, if any, received by
NCTD and its directors, officers, employees, consultants, contractors, and agents.
Nothing contained herein shall prohibit NCTD, in its sole discretion, from participating in the defense
of any demand, claim, action, proceeding, or litigation. In no event shall NCTD’s participation in
the defense of any demand, claim, action, proceeding, or litigation affect the obligations imposed
upon Licensee herein.
8.Construction.
8.1 Any work performed or caused to be performed by Licensee on the License Area shall be
performed (a) at Licensee’s sole cost and expense; (b) in accordance with any and all

regulations); and (c) in a manner that is satisfactory to NCTD and which meets or exceeds the
then applicable standards of the industry for such work.
8.2 Prior to the commencement of any work, Licensee shall submit to NCTD for review and
approval construction drawings, specifications, work plans and any other relevant information
NCTD deems necessary, including but not limited to documents as required pursuant to
Section 8, to enable NCTD to determine the scope and nature of the proposed work and the
potential effect of such work on the ROW and train operations. NCTD may approve or
disapprove any work or provision in such documents in NCTD's sole and absolute discretion,
and NCTD may require such changes or impose such conditions as NCTD, in its sole and
absolute discretion, deems necessary or appropriate.

Licensee shall restore the License Area to its condition immediately preceding the
commencement of the work.
8.4 As applicable for any construction, the following shall apply to any entry or work within the
ROW:
8.4.1 Every individual who will be entering upon the License Area or ROW under this
Agreement, before entering, shall first attend a class conducted by NCTD or NCTD's
designee on Railroad Worker Protection Safety rules and regulations. Licensee shall
pay all costs associated with such class.
8.4.2 The need for flag protection for Licensee’s operations on or adjacent to the ROW shall
be determined in the sole discretion of NCTD or NCTD’s designee. In the event that
NCTD or NCTD’s designee determines that flag protection is necessary, Licensee shall
not enter upon or use the License Area until flag protection has been provided.
Licensee shall submit for flag protection services in accordance with NCTD policies and
procedures. Licensee shall pay all costs of flag protection. NCTD or NCTD’s designee
shall use reasonable efforts to provide flag protection on the dates and times of
Licensee's requested entries, provided that any work by NCTD, BNSF, or AMTRAK that
requires flag protection shall take priority. NCTD shall not be liable for any costs,
expenses, or claims if flag protection is not provided on Licensee's requested dates or
times of entry.
8.4.3 Licensee shall, upon NCTD's request and at Licensee's expense, install barrier fencing,
K-rail, and/or landscaping in the License Area to shield the railroad track area from
public access and/or the improvements thereon from public view. NCTD shall have the
right to review and approve fencing and/or landscaping plans prior to installation.
8.4.4 NCTD's review and inspection of the construction drawings, specifications, work plans,
and other construction documents, including but not limited to documents as required
pursuant to this Section 8 is for the purpose of examining the general arrangement,
design, details of the work for potential impact on the ROW, and ROW safety and
railroad operations. NCTD and NCTD's employees, consultants, and agents assume
no responsibility for and make no representations or warranties, express or implied, as
to the design, condition, workmanship, or adequacy of the drawings, specifications,
Permit Registration Documents (as defined below) or ESCP (as defined below), or
Licensee’s compliance with the same, construction documents, or work. No review,
comments, requirements, or inspection shall relieve Licensee or Licensee's engineers,
contractors, subcontractors, or consultants from the entire responsibility for the errors
or omissions in the drawings, specifications, Permit Registration Documents (as defined
below), ESCP (as defined below), or construction documents, or for the quality or
adequacy of the work.
8.5 Storm Water Pollution Prevention: Compliance with Construction General Permit for the
Agreement:
8.5.1 If coverage under the Construction General Permit and/or NCTD MS4 Program
requirements (as defined in this Section 8) pursuant to applicable NCTD, local, state,
and federal ordinances, laws, rules and regulations is required, Licensee shall prepare,
May 14, 2024 Item #5 Page 19 of 41
231.37-0524-PL-CSBD
6
implement and monitor a Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan (“SWPPP”) that is
consistent with the current NCTD SWPPP template and is in compliance with the current
Construction General Permit for the purpose of preventing, among other things, the
discharge of pollutants into receiving waters. This includes elimination of non-storm
water pollution discharges such as improper dumping, spills or leakage from storage
tanks or transfer areas. If coverage under the Construction General Permit is required,
Licensee shall not perform or cause to be performed any construction or demolition
activities on the License Area until Licensee obtains a Waste Dischargers Identification
number, as that term is defined in the Construction General Permit. For purposes of
this Section 8, “Construction General Permit” shall mean the State Water Resources
Control Board (“SWRCB”) National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (“NPDES”)
General Permit for Waste Discharge Requirements for Discharges of Storm Water
Runoff Associated with Construction and Land Disturbance Activities, as it may be
amended or superseded(currently Order No. 2012-0006-DWQ); and MS4 Program shall
mean the Regional Water Quality Control Board issued Phase II Small Municipal
Separate Storm Sewer System (“MS4”) Program (currently Order No. 2013-0001-DWQ)
as it may be amended or superseded.
8.5.2 The Licensee shall prepare, implement and monitor an Erosion and Sediment Control
Plan (“ESCP”) consistent with the current NCTD ESCP template for the purpose of
preventing the discharge of pollutants into receiving waters for all construction or
demolition activities performed or caused to be performed by Licensee on the License
Area for activities not requiring coverage under the Construction General Permit, the
industrial general permit or an individual NPDES permit, including activities that result
in a total land disturbance of less than one acre that are not part of a larger common
plan of development or sale. This includes elimination of non-storm water pollution
discharges such as improper dumping, spills or leakage from storage tanks or transfer
areas.
8.5.3 Without limiting the provisions set forth in Sections 5.1, 8.1, 8.5.1 and 8.5.2, the
Licensee shall comply with the NCTD Storm Water Management Program and all
NCTD, local, state and federal ordinances, laws, rules and regulations governing storm
water discharges, including but not limited to those associated with construction and
demolition activities such as clearing, excavating, grading, demolition and other land
disturbances.
8.5.4 The Licensee shall pay and be responsible for all fees, as applicable and as required
by SWRCB, during the term of this Agreement.
8.5.5 The Licensee shall submit all SWRCB required documentation, as applicable and
including but not limited to Permit Registration Documents, as that term is defined in the
Construction General Permit, to the SWRCB through the SWRCB SMARTS online
system and shall provide a copy of such documentation and proof of submittal to NCTD.
8.5.6 As required by NCTD’s Phase II MS4 Permit (Order No. 2013-0001-DWQ) (“MS4
Permit”), NCTD may conduct periodic water sampling associated with any drainage
facility installed by Licensee within the License Area. Licensee shall be required to
reimburse NCTD for costs associated with collection, sampling and reporting. NCTD
may require Licensee to perform corrective actions, at Licensee's sole cost and
expense, in order to meet the requirements of the MS4 Permit.
9.Reimbursement of NCTD. Licensee shall reimburse NCTD within thirty (30) days of invoice for
all cost and expense incurred by NCTD in connection with NCTD's review and processing of this
May 14, 2024 Item #5 Page 20 of 41
231.37-0524-PL-CSBD
7
Agreement and any work performed by or for Licensee on the License Area. These costs include,
but are not limited to, NCTD staff time and consultants’ fees for the expenses of reviewing
construction documents, ESCPs, Permit Registration Documents, ROW support services,
inspections, monitoring, security, the installation, and removal of false work beneath tracks,
equipment rentals, and restoration of the ROW to the same condition as when Licensee entered
thereon. Upon execution of this Agreement, Licensee shall deposit with the NCTD the amount
determined by NCTD to be the probable amount of reimbursable expenses. NCTD may deduct
the costs and expenses from the deposit as such costs and expenses are incurred. Costs of
services provided by NCTD employees will be charged at the employees' fully burdened hourly
rates (monthly salary and benefits). Services provided by NCTD consultants, equipment rentals,
and other third-party costs will be charged at cost. Upon demand by NCTD, Licensee shall make
any additional deposits that NCTD determines are necessary to reimburse NCTD for the costs and
expenses incurred by NCTD. In the event that the costs and expenses incurred by NCTD exceed
the amounts deposited, Licensee shall reimburse NCTD for all such costs and expenses within
thirty (30) days of invoice.
10.Maintenance and Repair. Licensee shall, at Licensee's sole expense, maintain the Facility and
License Area in a condition satisfactory to NCTD and in accordance with applicable governmental
codes. Licensee shall be responsible for any citations issued by any agency having jurisdiction as
a result of Licensee’s failure to comply with any applicable law, regulation, ordinance, rule, or order.
11.Taxes and Assessments. Licensee shall pay before delinquency any and all real and personal
property taxes, general and special assessments, license fees, and other charges of any
description including, without limitation, any possessory interest tax, that are levied and assessed
from the commencement of this Agreement until the expiration or termination of this Agreement
against the Property, Licensee's possessory interest in the Property, Licensee's Leasehold Estate,
any subleasehold estate, improvements located on the Property, or personal property installed or
located in or on the Property or improvements (collectively, "Taxes and Assessments"), to the full
extent of the installments of the Taxes and Assessments falling due during the term of this
Agreement. All payments of Taxes and Assessments shall be made directly to the taxing or
charging authority. Licensee shall provide receipts or other proof of payment of the Taxes and
Assessments to NCTD prior to the date that the Taxes and Assessments become delinquent.
11.1 Licensee's Right to Contest Taxes and Assessments. Licensee at its sole cost shall have
the right, at any time, to seek a reduction in the assessed valuation of the Property or to
contest any Taxes and Assessments that are to be paid by Licensee. If Licensee seeks a
reduction of or contests the Taxes and Assessments, the failure on Licensee's part to pay the
Taxes and Assessments shall not constitute a default as long as Licensee, before the
delinquency date, furnishes to NCTD a surety bond issued by an insurance company qualified
to do business in California in an amount equal to one hundred twenty-five percent (125%) of
the total amount of Taxes and Assessments in dispute. The bond shall hold NCTD and the
Property harmless from any damage arising out of the proceeding or contest and shall insure
the payment of any judgment that may be rendered. NCTD shall not be required to join in any
proceeding or contest brought by Licensee unless the provisions of any law require that the
proceeding or contest be brought by or in the name of NCTD. In that case NCTD shall join in
the proceeding or contest or permit it to be brought in NCTD's name as long as NCTD is not
required to bear any cost. Licensee, on final determination of the proceeding or contest, shall
immediately pay or discharge any decision or judgment rendered, together with all costs,
charges, interest, and penalties incidental to the decision or judgment.
11.2 Transfer Taxes. If a transfer tax is payable to any governmental agency or agencies as a
result of this Agreement, Licensee shall promptly pay such transfer tax directly to the taxing
authority or authorities when it is due.

11.3 Possessory Interest Tax Notice. Licensee acknowledges that NCTD has given notice to
Licensee that the property interest created by this Agreement may be subject to property
taxation pursuant to Revenue and Taxation Code § 107.6 or other statutes, and that Licensee
may be subject to the payment of property taxes levied on the possessory interest created by
this Agreement.
11.4 Indemnification. NCTD shall not be liable for, and Licensee shall indemnify, defend and hold
NCTD and its Board of Directors, officers, employees, consultants, contractors, and agents
and the Property and any improvements now or hereafter located on the Property free and
harmless from any claims, demands, liabilities, judgments, fines, losses, damages, expenses,
charges or costs of any kind or character, including attorneys' fees and court costs, resulting
from any Taxes and Assessments required by this Article to be paid by Licensee, and from all
interest, penalties, and other sums imposed thereon, and from any sale or other proceeding
to enforce collection of any Taxes and Assessments.
11.5 Payment by NCTD. Should Licensee fail to pay within the time specified in this Article any
Taxes and Assessments required by this Article to be paid by Licensee, NCTD may, without
notice to or demand on Licensee, pay, discharge, or adjust said Taxes and Assessments for
the benefit of Licensee. In such event, Licensee shall reimburse NCTD pursuant to Section 9.
12.Default. In the event that Licensee fails to perform any obligation under this Agreement, Licensee
shall pay all costs and expenses incurred by NCTD in obtaining performance of such obligations.
If Licensee uses the ROW or Property for any purpose not expressly authorized by this Agreement
or fails to act strictly in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement, and if such
default is not corrected within thirty (30) days' notice from NCTD to Licensee, NCTD may terminate
this Agreement and prevent Licensee from using or remaining upon the ROW. If NCTD determines
that any default by Licensee does or has the potential to cause a danger to the ROW or railroad
operations, NCTD may immediately and without prior notice to Licensee terminate this Agreement
and prevent Licensee from using or remaining upon the ROW or Property, with or without process
of law.
13.Termination for Convenience. Notwithstanding any other section or provision of this Agreement,
NCTD may terminate this Agreement for convenience by providing sixty (60) days written notice.
14.Termination. Upon termination of this Agreement, Licensee shall, at Licensee's sole expense,
remove the Facility and all other Licensee improvements in or upon the ROW or Property and
restore the ROW or Property to a manner satisfactory to NCTD. Should Licensee fail or refuse to
comply with the terms of this Section 14, NCTD may, at its option, perform such work, and Licensee
shall promptly reimburse NCTD for all costs and damages so incurred.
15.Service of Notice. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, any notice required or
permitted to be given hereunder shall be in writing and may be given by personal delivery or by
certified or registered mail, and shall be deemed sufficiently given if delivered or addressed to:

In the event the tracks become damaged, blocked, or fouled in any way, Licensee shall immediately
notify NCTD Rail Operations Center at (760) 966-6700.
16.Acceptance of License Area. Licensee accepts the License Area in its present physical "AS-IS"
condition and agrees to make no demands upon NCTD for any improvements or alterations. By
signing this Agreement, Licensee represents and warrants that Licensee has independently
inspected the License Area and the area immediately surrounding and made all investigations,
tests, and observations necessary to satisfy Licensee as to the condition of the License Area,
zoning and land use laws, regulations, and ordinances affecting the License Area, and all of the
conditions, restrictions, encumbrances, and other matters of record relating to the License Area.
Licensee agrees that Licensee is relying solely on Licensee's independent inspection and that
NCTD has made no warranty or representation with regard to the License Area. NCTD shall not
be responsible for any latent defect or change in condition in the License Area and Licensee's
obligations under this Agreement shall not be diminished on account of any defect in the License
Area, any change of condition, or any damages occurring on the License Area. In case of
Licensee’s eviction by anyone owning or claiming title to or any interest in the License Area, NCTD
shall not be liable to Licensee for any damage of any nature whatsoever or to refund any monies
paid hereunder. Licensee hereby releases NCTD from all future claims, actions, or demands that
Licensee may have or may hereinafter have, known and unknown, in any way relating to the quality,
fitness, or condition of the License Area, and Licensee specifically waives all rights under California
Civil Code section 1542, which provides as follows:
"A general release does not extend to claims that the creditor or releasing party does not
know or suspect to exist in his or her favor at the time of executing the release and that, if
known by him or her, would have materially affected his or her settlement with the debtor
or released party."
Licensee Initial: _________
17.General Provisions.
17.1 Waiver. No delay or omission in the exercise of any right or remedy of NCTD on any default
by Licensee shall impair such a right or remedy or be construed as a waiver. The receipt
and acceptance by NCTD of any delinquent License Fee shall not constitute a waiver of any
other default; it shall constitute only a waiver of timely payment for the particular License
Fee payment involved. NCTD's consent to or approval of any act by Licensee requiring
NCTD's consent or approval shall not be deemed to waive or render unnecessary NCTD's
consent to or approval of any subsequent act by Licensee. Any waiver by NCTD of any
default must be in writing and shall not be a waiver of any other default concerning the same
or any other provision of this Agreement.
17.2 Time of Essence. Time is of the essence for each and every provision of this Agreement.
17.3 Successors. This Agreement shall be binding on and inure to the benefit of the parties and

provisions of this Agreement.

Agreement are cumulative and not exclusive of any other remedies under this Agreement to
which the non-defaulting party may be entitled.
17.14 Entire Agreement. This Agreement, together with all attached addenda, exhibits and riders

with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement, and all prior or contemporaneous

acknowledges that railroad tracks are located on or adjacent to the License Area and that
the operation of trains over the tracks does and will produce vibrations which may affect the
Facility and Licensee's use of the License Area. With knowledge and understanding of these
facts, Licensee by execution of this Agreement, agrees that no legal action or complaint of
any kind whatsoever shall be instituted against NCTD by Licensee or on Licensee’s behalf
as result of vibrations or as a result of the use of the railroad tracks in general.
