period, the City shall have up to 3 days following the next regular meeting of the City
Council to provide the written statement. Payment of the undisputed portion of the claim
shall be made within 60 days after the City issues its written statement.

are identified in the Contractor's Proposal and are attached as part of the Contract
Documents. Contractor shall be fully responsible to City for all acts and omissions of any
subcontractors. Nothing in this Contract shall create any contractual relationship between
City and subcontractor, nor shall it create any obligation on the part of City to pay or to
see to the payment of any monies due to any such subcontractor other than as otherwise
required by law. City is an intended beneficiary of any Work performed by the
subcontractor for purposes of establishing a duty of care between the subcontractor and

demands, obligations, damages, actions, causes of action, suits, losses, judgments,
fines, penalties, liabilities, costs and expenses (including, without limitation, attorneys'

16.4 Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall be construed to require
Contractor to indemnify the Indemnified Parties from any Claim arising from the sole
negligence or willful misconduct of the Indemnified Parties. Nothing in this indemnity shall
be construed as authorizing any award of attorneys' fees in any action on or to enforce
the terms of this Contract. This indemnity shall apply to all claims and liability regardless

limitation upon the amount of indemnification to be provided by Contractor.

and former usefulness as soon as possible, and to protect public and private property.

EXHIBIT C
INSURANCE REQUIREMENTS — PUBLIC WORKS AND CONSTRUCTION
1. Provision of Insurance. Without limiting Contractor's indemnification of City, and
prior to commencement of Work, Contractor shall obtain, provide and maintain at
its own expense during the term of this Contract, policies of insurance of the type
and amounts described below and in a form satisfactory to City. Contractor agrees
to provide insurance in accordance with requirements set forth here. If Contractor
uses existing coverage to comply and that coverage does not meet these
requirements, Contractor agrees to amend, supplement or endorse the existing
coverage.
2. Acceptable Insurers. All insurance policies shall be issued by an insurance
company currently authorized by the Insurance Commissioner to transact
business of insurance in the State of California, with an assigned policyholders'
Rating of A- (or higher) and Financial Size Category Class VII (or larger) in
accordance with the latest edition of Best's Key Rating Guide, unless otherwise
approved by the City's Risk Manager.
3. Coverage Requirements.
A. Workers' Compensation Insurance. Contractor shall maintain Workers'
Compensation Insurance providing statutory benefits and Employer's
Liability Insurance with limits of at least one million dollars ($1,000,000)
each employee for bodily injury by accident and each employee for bodily
injury by disease in accordance with the laws of the State of California,
Section 3700 of the Labor Code. In addition, Contractor shall require each
subcontractor to similarly maintain Workers' Compensation Insurance and
Employer's Liability Insurance in accordance with California law for all of the
subcontractor's employees. The insurer issuing the Workers'
Compensation insurance shall amend its policy by endorsement to waive
all rights of subrogation against City, its elected or appointed officers,
agents, officials, employees and volunteers.. Contractor shall submit to
City, along with the certificate of insurance, a Waiver of Subrogation
endorsement in favor of City, its elected or appointed officers, agents,
officials, employees and volunteers.
B. General Liability Insurance. Contractor shall maintain commercial general
liability insurance, and if necessary umbrella liability insurance, with
coverage at least as broad as provided by Insurance Services Office form
CG 00 01, in an amount not less than one million dollars ($1,000,000) per
occurrence, two million dollars ($2,000,000) general aggregate and two
million dollars ($2,000,000) completed operations aggregate. The policy
shall cover liability arising from premises, operations, products -completed
operations, personal and advertising injury, and liability assumed under an
R.I.C. CONSTRUCTION CO., INC. Page C-1
insured contract (including the tort liability of another assumed in a business
contract).
C. Automobile Liability Insurance. Contractor shall maintain automobile
insurance at least as broad as Insurance Services Office form CA 00 01
covering bodily injury and property damage for all activities of Contractor
arising out of or in connection with Work to be performed under this
Contract, including coverage for any owned, hired, non -owned or rented
vehicles, in an amount not less than one million dollars ($1,000,000)
combined single limit for each accident.
4. Other Insurance Requirements. The policies are to contain, or be endorsed to
A. Waiver of Subrogation. All insurance coverage maintained or procured
pursuant to this Contract shall be endorsed to waive subrogation against
City, its elected or appointed officers, agents, officials, employees and
volunteers or shall specifically allow Contractor or others providing
insurance evidence in compliance with these requirements to waive their
right of recovery prior to a loss. Contractor hereby waives its own right of
recovery against City, and shall require similar written express waivers and
insurance clauses from each of its subcontractors.
B. Additional Insured Status. All liability policies including general liability,
products and completed operations, excess liability, pollution liability, and
automobile liability, if required, shall provide or be endorsed to provide that
City, its elected or appointed officers, agents, officials, employees and
volunteers shall be included as additional insureds under such policies.
C. Primary and Non Contributory. Contractor's insurance coverage shall be
primary insurance and/or the primary source of recovery with respect to
City, its elected or appointed officers, agents, officials, employees and
volunteers. Any insurance or self-insurance maintained by City shall be
excess of Contractor's insurance and shall not contribute with it.
D. Notice of Cancellation. All policies shall provide City with thirty (30)
calendar days' notice of cancellation or nonrenewal of coverage (except for
nonpayment for which ten (10) calendar days' notice is required) for each
required coverage except Builders Risk Insurance, which shall contain an
endorsement with said required notices.
5. Additional Agreements Between the Parties. The parties hereby agree to the
following:
A. Evidence of Insurance. Contractor shall provide certificates of insurance to
City as evidence of the insurance coverage required herein, along with a
waiver of subrogation endorsement for workers' compensation and other
endorsements as specified herein for each coverage. All of the executed
documents referenced in this Contract must be returned to City within ten
R.I.C. CONSTRUCTION CO., INC. Page C-2
(10) regular City business days after the date on the "Notification of Award".
Insurance certificates and endorsements must be approved by City's Risk
Manager prior to commencement of performance. Current certification of
insurance shall be kept on file with City at all times during the term of this
Contract. The certificates and endorsements for each insurance policy shall
be signed by a person authorized by that insurer to bind coverage on its
behalf. At least fifteen (15) days prior to the expiration of any such policy,
evidence of insurance showing that such insurance coverage has been
renewed or extended shall be filed with the City. If such coverage is
cancelled or reduced, Contractor shall, within ten (10) days after receipt of
written notice of such cancellation or reduction of coverage, file with the City
evidence of insurance showing that the required insurance has been
reinstated or has been provided through another insurance company or
companies. City reserves the right to require complete, certified copies of
all required insurance policies, at any time.
B. City's Right to Revise Requirements. The City reserves the right at any time
during the term of the Contract to change the amounts and types of
insurance required by giving Contractor ninety (90) calendar days' advance
written notice of such change. If such change results in substantial
additional cost to Contractor, City and Contractor may renegotiate
Contractor's compensation.
C. Right to Review Subcontracts. Contractor agrees that upon request, all
agreements with subcontractors or others with whom Contractor enters into
contracts with on behalf of City will be submitted to City for review. Failure
of City to request copies of such agreements will not impose any liability on
City, or its employees. Contractor shall require and verify that all
subcontractors maintain insurance meeting all the requirements stated
herein, and Contractor shall ensure that City is an additional insured on
insurance required from subcontractors. For CGL coverage,
subcontractors shall provide coverage with a format at least as broad as CG
20 38 04 13.
D. Enforcement of Contract Provisions. Contractor acknowledges and agrees
that any actual or alleged failure on the part of City to inform Contractor of
non-compliance with any requirement imposes no additional obligations on
City nor does it waive any rights hereunder.
E. Requirements not Limiting. Requirements of specific coverage features or
limits contained in this Exhibit A are not intended as a limitation on
coverage, limits or other requirements, or a waiver of any coverage normally
provided by any insurance. Specific reference to a given coverage feature
is for purposes of clarification only as it pertains to a given issue and is not
intended by any party or insured to be all inclusive, or to the exclusion of
other coverage, or a waiver of any type. If the Contractor maintains higher
limits than the minimums shown above, the City requires and shall be
R.I.C. CONSTRUCTION CO., INC. Page C-3
entitled to coverage for higher limits maintained by the Contractor. Any
available proceeds in excess of specified minimum limits of insurance and
coverage shall be available to the City.
F. Self -Insured Retentions. Contractor agrees not to self -insure or to use any
self-insured retentions on any portion of the insurance required herein and
further agrees that it will not allow any indemnifying party to self -insure its
obligations to City. If Contractor's existing coverage includes a self-insured
retention, the self-insured retention must be declared to City. City may
review options with Contractor, which may include reduction or elimination
of the self-insured retention, substitution of other coverage, or other
solutions. Contractor agrees to be responsible for payment of any
deductibles on their policies.
G. City Remedies for Non Compliance. If Contractor or any subcontractor fails
to provide and maintain insurance as required herein, then City shall have
the right but not the obligation, to purchase such insurance, to terminate this
Contract, or to suspend Contractor's right to proceed until proper evidence
of insurance is provided. Any amounts paid by City shall, at City's sole
option, be deducted from amounts payable to Contractor or reimbursed by
Contractor upon demand.
H. Timely Notice of Claims. Contractor shall give City prompt and timely notice
of claims made or suits instituted that arise out of or result from Contractor's
performance under this Contract, and that involve or may involve coverage
under any of the required liability policies. City assumes no obligation or
liability by such notice, but has the right (but not the duty) to monitor the
handling of any such claim or claims if they are likely to involve City.
Coverage not Limited. All insurance coverage and limits provided by
Contractor and available or applicable to this Contract are intended to apply
to the full extent of the policies. Nothing contained in this Contract or any
other agreement relating to City or its operations limits the application of
such insurance coverage.
J. Coverage Renewal. Contractor will renew the coverage required here
annually as long as Contractor continues to provide any Work under this or
any other Contract or agreement with City. Contractor shall provide proof
that policies of insurance required herein expiring during the term of this
Contract have been renewed or replaced with other policies providing at
least the same coverage. Proof that such coverage has been ordered shall
be submitted prior to expiration. A coverage binder or letter from
Contractor's insurance agent to this effect is acceptable. A certificate of
insurance and/or additional insured endorsement as required in these
specifications applicable to the renewing or new coverage must be provided
to City with five (5) calendar days of the expiration of the coverages.
R.I.C. CONSTRUCTION CO., INC. Page C-4
K. Maintenance of General Liability Coverage. Contractor agrees to maintain
commercial general liability coverage for a period of ten (10) years after
completion of the Project or to obtain coverage for completed operations
liability for an equivalent period.

Documents — all other conditions shall remain the same.
SPECIFICATIONS
1. Section 11310 Vertical Turbine Pumps
ADD Paragraph 2.03 C 18, with the following:
"Motors shall be equipped with a vibration switch (Robertshaw Model 366A8 or equal)."
ADD the following sentence to the end of Paragraph 2.03 C 2:

DELETE the following sentence from the end of Paragraph 1.06 C:
"All rooms housing liquid handling equipment are also classified as damp locations
regardless of grade elevation."
Pg. 2 of 3
3. Section 16481 Variable Frequency Drives
REPLACE Paragraph 2.03 N, with the following:
"Total Harmonic Distortion (THD) compliance to IEEE 519: The Drive Manufacturer shall
provide calculations showing total harmonic current distortion and total harmonic voltage
distortion is less than 5%, both with no individual harmonic greater than 3%, at the drive
input terminals. Calculations at the transformer are not acceptable. This requirement may
be met by VFD's that use Matrix conversion technology. VFD's employing the use of 6 -
Pulse, Passive Filters, 12 -Pulse, 18 -pulse or "LCL" filter schemes will be rejected.
Additional equipment required to meet this performance will be the responsibility of the
contractor with no additional cost to the owner."
REPLACE Paragraph 2.04 C, with the following:
"VFD shall employ use of matrix conversion technology for direct conversion of AC to AC.
Active AC to DC rectifier schemes are not acceptable and will be rejected. 6 pulse,

rejected.
Input / Output Section: VFD input power stage shall convert three-phase AC
line power directly into variable AC output. The main circuit shall consist of a
compact input filter and bidirectional switches. The bidirectional switches are
power devices that carry the full current of the drive."
REPLACE Paragraph 2.05 H, with the following:
"Resettable 100% rated, line current sensing circuit breakers with inverse time versus
current response shall be furnished and shall not automatically reset preventing restoration
of voltage if maintenance is being performed. This breaker shall protect the generator

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The following is a summary of our geotechnical investigation, conclusions, and
recommendations as presented in the body of this report. Please refer to the appropriate
sections of the report for complete conclusions and recommendations. In the event of a
conflict between this summary and the report, or an omission in the summary, the report
shall prevail.
The proposed project site is located within the Utility Yard on 16th Street and
Monrovia Avenue in Newport Beach. The site is bounded by 16th Street to the
north, an asphalt walkway to the east, and a concrete driveway to the southwest.
The site is located on a sloped lot with surface elevations ranging from 101 to 104
feet above mean sea level (amsl) respectively, with surface gradients flowing
down -gradient towards the west. The site coordinates are: Latitude: 33.63220
North, and Longitude: 117.93940 West.
■ The project consists of building a back-up generator capable of running three of
the 300 HP motors and supply 9000 gallons per minute (gpm) in the event of an
emergency. A geotechnical investigation is required for the design reinforced
concrete slab foundation to support the generator.
■ Our scope of work included project setup, subsurface exploration, laboratory
testing, engineering analysis, and preparation of this report.
■ To investigate the subsurface conditions at the project site, Converse drilled two
(2) exploratory borings (BH -1 and BH -2) on June 16, 2020. Borings BH -1 and BH -
2 were drilled using a 4 -inch diameter hand auger at the locations of proposed
structure pad foundation to a maximum depth of 21 feet below ground surface
(bgs).
■ The subsurface conditions consist of 2 feet of undocumented fill over native alluvial
soil deposits to the maximum explored depth of 21 feet bgs. The fill consists
primarily of dark brown, loose, fine to coarse grained clayey sand with few gravels.
The alluvial soils consist predominately of dark brown, fine to coarse grained
clayey sand and fine to medium grained clay.
■ Groundwater was not encountered during our subsurface exploration to a
maximum drilled depth of 21 feet bgs. Review of the Seismic Hazard Zone Report
for the South Gate 7.5 -Minute Quadrangle (CDMG, 1998), Plate 1.2, indicates the
historical high groundwater contours in the vicinity of the site was approximately 30
feet bgs. Groundwater is not anticipated during construction and need not be
considered in project design.
The site is not located within a State of California Earthquake Fault Zone. Based
on review of available geologic information, no major surface fault crosses through

or extends towards the site. The potential for surface rupture resulting from the
movement of nearby major faults, or currently unknown faults, is not known with
certainty but is considered low.
■ Based on our analysis, the site has low potential for liquefaction and seismically
induced settlement due to the clay -rich (cohesive) nature of the soils.
■ The risk to the site from seismically induced lateral spreading, landsliding, and
flooding is considered low.
■ Based on our field exploration, the soils at the site may be excavated with
conventional heavy-duty earth moving and trenching equipment.
■ The Expansion Index test results indicate the soils at the site have a "very low"
expansion potential. Mitigation for expansive soil is not considered necessary.
■ To provide uniform support for the proposed concrete slab foundation, the existing
soils should be overexcavated to a minimum depth of 2 feet below the bottom of
foundations, or 4 feet below the lowest adjacent grade, whichever is deeper. The
overexcavation should extend laterally at least 4 feet beyond the footprints of the
foundations. The overexcavation should be deepened as needed to remove any
existing fill, and any very soft or saturated soil. The bottom of excavation should be
scarified to a depth of 12 inches and compacted to at least 90 percent of the
laboratory maximum dry density as determined by ASTM D1557 test method.
Seismic design parameters determined based on the 2019 California Building
Code and ASCE 7-16 guidance document are presented in Table No. 1 in Section
8.1 of this report.
■ Foundation design parameters and recommendations are presented in Section 8.2
of this report.
Based on soil corrosivity test results and Caltrans Corrosion Guidelines, the soils are
considered non -corrosive to concrete and ferrous metals. According to ACI 318-14,
a minimum compressive strength of 2,500 psi for concrete is recommended based
on sulfate exposure category. Additional corrosion testing should be performed at
the completion of grading or as recommended by a qualified corrosion consultant.
Converse does not practice in the area of corrosion consulting. A qualified
corrosion consultant should provide appropriate corrosion mitigation measures.
The results of our investigation indicate that the site is suitable from a geotechnical
standpoint for the proposed development, provided the recommendations contained in
this report are incorporated into the design and construction of the project.

1.0 INTRODUCTION
This report contains the findings and recommendations of our geotechnical investigation
performed at the site for the proposed improvements for the existing 16th Street Pump
Station, located on the south side of 16th Street and west of Monrovia Avenue in Newport
Beach, Orange County, California as shown on Figure No. 1, Site Location Map.
This report is prepared for the project described herein and is intended for use solely by
Dudek, and its design team. It should not be used as a bidding document but may be
made available to potential contractors for information on factual data only. For bidding
purposes, contractors should be responsible for making their own interpretation of the
data contained in this report.
2.0 SITE AND PROJECT DESCRIPTION
2.1 Site Description
The proposed project site is located within the Utility Yard on 16th Street and Monrovia
Avenue in Newport Beach. The site is bounded by 16th Street to the north, an asphalt
walkway to the east, and a concrete driveway to the southwest. The site is located on a
sloped lot with surface elevations ranging from 101 to 104 feet above mean sea level
(amsl) respectively, with surface gradients flowing down -gradient towards the west. The
site coordinates are: Latitude: 33.6322° North, and Longitude: 117.93940 West.
2.2 Project Description
The project consists of building a back-up generator capable of running three of the 300
HP motors and supply 9000 gallons per minute (gpm) in the event of an emergency. A
geotechnical investigation is required for the design of reinforced concrete slab foundation
to support the generator.
3.0 SCOPE OF WORK

■ Notified Underground Service Alert (USA) at least 48 hours prior to drilling to clear
the boring location of any conflict with existing underground utilities.
■ Employed a drilling contractor and coordinated the drilling schedule with Dudek
and the City of Newport Beach staff.
During the site reconnaissance on June 8, 2020, the surface conditions were noted, and
the locations of the borings were determined to confirm that drill rig access to all the
locations was available. The borings were located using existing boundary features as a
guide and should be considered accurate only to the degree implied by the method used.
3.2 Subsurface Exploration
To investigate the subsurface conditions at the project site, Converse drilled two (2)
exploratory borings (BH -1 and BH -2) on June 16, 2020. The approximate locations of the
exploratory borings are shown in Figure No. 2, Boring Location Map. The exploration
locations and depths were selected by Converse in consultation with Dudek.
Borings BH -1 and BH -2 were drilled using a 4 -inch diameter hand auger at the locations
of proposed structure pad foundation to a maximum depth of 21 feet below ground surface
(bgs).
Since groundwater was not encountered during drilling, all the boreholes were
backfilledwith soil cuttings. No waste (extra soil cuttings) were generated.
Detailed descriptions of the field exploration and boring logs are presented in Appendix
A, Field Exploration.
3.3 Laboratory Testing
Representative samples of the site soils were tested in the laboratory to aid in the
classification and to evaluate relevant engineering properties. The tests performed
included:
■ In-situ Moisture Content and Dry Density (ASTM D2216 and D2937)
■ Expansion Index (ASTM D4829)
■ Soil Corrosivity Tests (CTM 643, 422, 417, and 532)
■ Grain Size Analysis (ASTM D6913)
■ Maximum Dry Density (ASTM D1557)
■ Direct Shear (ASTM D3080)
Description of the laboratory test methods and test results are presented in Appendix B,
Laboratory Testing Program. For in-situ moisture and density test data, see the Logs of
Borings in Appendix A, Field Exploration.

3.4 Engineering Analyses and Report
Data obtained from the exploratory fieldwork and laboratory testing program were
analyzed and evaluated. This report was prepared to provide the findings, conclusions
and recommendations developed during our investigation and evaluation.
4.0 SUBSURFACE CONDITIONS
A general description of the subsurface conditions, including various materials and
groundwater conditions encountered during our field exploration is discussed below.
4.1 Subsurface Profile
Based on our soil borings drilled at the site on June 16, 2020, the subsurface conditions
consist of 2 feet of undocumented fill over native alluvial soil deposits to the maximum
explored depth of 21 feet bgs.
Fill (Af): The existing fill consists primarily of dark brown, loose, fine to coarse grained
clayey sand (SC) with few gravels.
Alluvium (Qal): The alluvial soils consist predominately of dark brown, fine to coarse
grained clayey sand (SC) and clay with sand (CL).
For additional information on the subsurface conditions, see the Logs of Borings,
presented in Figure Nos. A-2 and A-3 in Appendix A, Field Exploration.
4.2 Groundwater
Groundwater was not encountered during our subsurface exploration to a maximum
drilled depth of 21 feet bgs. Review of the Seismic Hazard Zone Report for the Anaheim
and Newport Beach 7.5 -Minute Quadrangle (CDMG, 1997), Plate 1.2, indicates the
historical high groundwater contours in the vicinity of the site was approximately 30 feet bgs.
Groundwater is not anticipated during construction.
In general, groundwater levels fluctuate with the seasons and local zones of perched
groundwater may be present within the near -surface deposits due to local conditions or
during rainy seasons. Groundwater conditions below any given site vary depending on
numerous factors including seasonal rainfall, local irrigation, stormwater recharge,
groundwater recharge and pumping, among other factors. The regional groundwater table
is not expected to be encountered during the planned construction of surface
improvements.

4.3 Excavatability
Based on our field exploration, the soils at the site may be excavated with conventional
heavy-duty earth moving and trenching equipment. The onsite materials may contain
demolition debris and gravel and/or cobbles. Earthwork should be performed with suitable
equipment and methods for removal of debris from the engineered fill.
4.4 Expansive Soil
The Expansion Index test result, presented in Table B-1 in Appendix B, indicates the soils
at the site have a "very low" expansion potential. Mitigation for expansive soil is not
considered necessary.
4.5 Subsurface Variations
Based on results of the subsurface exploration and our experience with the subject area,
some variations in the continuity and nature of subsurface conditions within the project
site are anticipated. Because of the uncertainties involved in the nature and depositional
characteristics of the earth material at the site, care should be exercised in interpolating
or extrapolating subsurface conditions between or beyond the boring locations. If, during
construction, subsurface conditions are encountered that are different from those
presented in this report, this office should be notified immediately so that
recommendations can be modified, if necessary.
5.0 ENGINEERING GEOLOGY
The project site is located along the southern margin of the Orange County coastal plain
on the Newport Heights mesa. The Orange County coastal plain is a broad sediment -
filled basin located in the Peninsular Ranges geomorphic provinces of California. The
project site is underlain by Quaternary aged marine terrace deposits that form an elevated
mesa above the coastal plain that has undergone gradual erosion through Holocene time
(0-11,000 years before present). The Santa Ana River and local drainage tributaries have
deposited stream and flood sediments across the coastal plain during Holocene time to
form a broad alluvial flood plain geomorphic feature along the lower edges of the mesa.
Soils underlying the project site consist of silty sands, sands, silts, and clayey sand
sediments deposited over time by coastal ocean processes and local rivers and stream
tributaries which once drained across the basin along the edge of the Pacific Ocean. Most
of these natural river and stream channels are now controlled by dams, debris basins and
flood control channels that collect surface runoff and convey storm water to the ocean.
Figure No. 3, Regional Geologic Map, shows the project site with respect to regional
geology of the Orange County coastline.

6.0 FAULTING AND GEOLOGIC HAZARDS
Geologic hazards are defined as geologically related conditions that may present a
potential danger to life and property. Typical geologic hazards in Southern California
include earthquake ground shaking, fault surface rupture, liquefaction and seismically
induced settlement, lateral spreading, landslides, earthquake induced flooding, tsunamis
and seiches, and volcanic eruption hazard. Results of a site-specific evaluation for each
type of possible seismic hazards are discussed in the following sections.
6.1 Seismic Characteristics of Nearby Faults
The subject site is situated within a seismically active region. As is the case for most
areas of Southern California, ground shaking resulting from earthquakes associated with
nearby and more distant faults may occur at the project site. During the life of the project,
seismic activity associated with active faults can be expected to generate moderate to
strong ground shaking at the project site.
The project site is not located within a currently designated State of California Earthquake
Fault Zone (Alquist-Priolo Special Studies Zones) for surface fault rupture. No surface
faults are known to project through or towards the site. The closest known active fault
trace to the project site with a mappable surface expression is the Newport -Inglewood
fault located approximately 2,400 feet (0.45 mile) southwest of the project site along
Pacific Coast Highway and the base of the Newport Heights mesa.
Blind thrust faults are low -angle, reverse faults which generally have no surface trace.
These blind thrust faults include the Elysian Park Thrust, Puente Hills Thrust, and
Compton Thrust faults. Details concerning the blind thrust faults are limited by the fact
that the thrust fault is buried below ground surface — thus, the term "blind" thrust fault. The
geometry and location of the blind thrust fault structures are based on interpretation of oil
well data, seismic and strong motion data solutions, high resolution geophysical data,
paleoseismic studies and structural model analyses. The potential for damage from
earthquakes on blind thrust faults within the Los Angeles and Orange County Basins was
illustrated by the ML 5.9 Whittier Earthquake on October 1, 1987, and the Mw 6.7
Northridge Earthquake on January 17, 1994. The approximate locations of local and
regional active faults with respect to the project site are shown on Figure No. 4, Southern
California Regional Fault Map.
6.2 Seismic History
We have reviewed California Geologic Survey Map Sheet 49; Epicenters and Areas
Damaged by M >_ 5 California Earthquakes, 1800-1999, (CGS, Toppozada et al., 2000).
The mapped epicenters of earthquake with magnitude 5.0 or greater in Southern
California during the past 200 years are shown on Figure No. 5, Epicenter Map of
Southern California Earthquakes (1800-1999).

6.3 Surface Fault Rupture
The project site is not located within a currently designated State of California Earthquake
Fault Zone (formerly Alquist-Priolo Special Studies Zones) for surface fault rupture. The
Alquist-Priolo Earthquake Fault Zoning Act requires the California Geological Survey to
zone "active faults" within the State of California. An "active fault" has exhibited surface
displacement with Holocene time (within the last 11,000 years) hence constituting a
potential hazard to structures that may be located across it. Public school structures are
required to be set -back at least 50 feet from an active fault. The active fault set -back
distance is measured perpendicular from the dip of the fault plane. Based on a review of
existing geologic information, no known active faults project through or toward the site.
The potential for surface rupture resulting from the movement of the nearby faults is
considered low.
6.4 Liquefaction and Seismically Induced Settlement
Liquefaction is the sudden decrease in the strength of cohesionless soils due to dynamic
or cyclic shaking. Saturated soils behave temporarily as a viscous fluid (liquefaction) and,
consequently, lose their capacity to support the structures founded on them. The potential
for liquefaction decreases with increasing clay and gravel content but increases as the
ground acceleration and duration of shaking increase. Liquefaction potential has been
found to be the greatest where the groundwater level and loose sands occur within 50
feet of the ground surface. Liquefaction is the sudden decrease in the strength of
cohesionless soils due to dynamic or cyclic shaking. Saturated soils behave temporarily
as a viscous fluid (liquefaction) and, consequently, lose their capacity to support the
structures founded on them. The potential for liquefaction decreases with increasing clay
and gravel content but increases as the ground acceleration and duration of shaking
increase. Liquefaction potential has been found to be the greatest where the groundwater
level and loose sands occur within 50 feet of the ground surface.
The site is not located within a mapped potential liquefaction hazard zones per the State
of California Seismic Hazard Zones Map for the Earthquake Zones of Required
Investigation Newport Beach 7.5 -minute Quadrangle (1986 & 1997) as shown in Figure
No. 6, Seismic Hazard Zones Map.
The potential for liquefaction and seismically induced settlement at the site is considered
low due to clay -rich nature of the soils and absence of shallow groundwater.
6.5 Lateral Spreading
Seismically induced lateral spreading involves primarily lateral movement of earth
materials due to ground shaking. It differs from the slope failure in that complete ground
failure involving large movement does not occur due to the relatively smaller gradient of
the initial ground surface. Lateral spreading is demonstrated by near -vertical cracks with

predominantly horizontal movement of the soil mass involved. The topography at the
project site and in the immediate vicinity of the site is relatively flat, with no significant
nearby free -face slopes or embankments. Under these circumstances, the potential for
lateral spreading at the subject site is considered low.
6.6 Seismically Induced Slope Instability
Seismically induced landslides and other slope failures are common occurrences during
or soon after earthquakes. The project site is located on a relatively flat marine terrace
mesa. No mapped areas with potential for earthquake induced landslides are shown on
or near the project site. A mapped earthquake induced landslide zone is shown along the
edges of natural drainage canyon located southwest of the project site. The potential for
seismically induced landslides at the project site is considered remote.
6.7 Earthquake -Induced Flooding
Review of the Flood Insurance Rate Map (FIRM), Map Number 06059CO268J, effective
date December 3, 2009, from the FEMA Map Service Center (MSC) viewer website,
indicates that the site is designated as Zone "X", "Areas of minimal flood hazard".
The potential of earthquake -induced flooding at the project site is considered very low.
6.8 Tsunami and Seiches
Tsunamis are seismic sea waves generated by fault displacement or major ground
movement. Based on the location of the site from the Pacific Ocean (approximately
miles), it's elevation (101 to 104 feet) above the ocean, and review of the Tsunami
Inundation Map for Emergency Planning -Newport Beach Quadrangle, dated March 15,
2009, tsunamis do not pose a hazard. Seiches are large waves generated in enclosed
bodies of water in response to ground shaking. Based on site locations away from lakes
and reservoirs, seiches do not pose a hazard.
7.0 EARTHWORK RECOMMENDATIONS
Recommendations for site preparation and remedial grading and estimates of shrinkage
and subsidence are provided in the following sections.
7.1 General
This section contains our general recommendations regarding earthwork and grading for
the site. These recommendations are based on the results of our field exploration, laboratory
testing, our experience with similar projects, and data evaluation as presented in the
preceding sections. These recommendations may need to be modified based on
observation of the actual field conditions during grading.

Prior to the start of any earthwork, the site should be cleared of all vegetation, debris, and
trees (if any). If needed, existing building, foundations (if any), asphalt concrete (paving area)
should be removed from the site. All materials resulting from clearing and grubbing should
be removed from the site.
All underground existing utilities and appurtenances should be located at the project site.
Such utilities should either be protected in-place or removed and replaced during
construction as required by the project specifications. All excavations should be
conducted in such a manner as not to cause loss of bearing and/or lateral support of
existing structures or utilities.
The final bottom surfaces of all excavations should be observed and approved by the project
geotechnical consultant prior to placing any fill. Based on these observations, removal of
localized areas deeper than those documented may be required during grading. Therefore,
some variations in the depth and lateral extent of excavation recommended in this report
should be anticipated.
7.2 Remedial Grading
To provide uniform support for the proposed concrete slab foundation, the existing soils
should be overexcavated to a minimum depth of 2 feet below the bottom of foundations,
or4 feet below the lowest adjacent grade, whichever is deeper. The overexcavation should
extend laterally at least 4 feet beyond the footprints of the foundations. The overexcavation
should be deepened as needed to remove any existing fill, and any very soft or saturated
soil. The bottom of excavation should be scarified to a depth of 12 inches and compacted
to at least 90 percent of the laboratory maximum dry density as determined by ASTM
D1557 test method.
Variations in the depths and lateral extent of overexcavation, based on observations by the
geotechnical consultant during grading should be anticipated. The final bottom surfaces of
all excavations should be observed and approved by the project geotechnical consultant
prior to placing any fill or structures. If isolated pockets of very soft, loose, or pumping
subgrade are encountered, the overexcavation should be locally deepened, as needed, to
expose undisturbed, firm, and unyielding soils.
The contractor should determine the best manner to conduct the excavations, such that
there are no losses of bearing and/or lateral support to the existing structures or utilities.
7.3 Engineered Fill
No fill soils or aggregate base should be placed until excavations and/or natural ground
preparation have been observed by the geotechnical consultant. The native soils
encountered within the project site are generally considered suitable for re -use as
compacted fill. Excavated soils should be processed, including removal of roots and

debris, removal of oversized particles, mixing, and moisture conditioning, before placing
as compacted fill. On-site soils used as fill should meet the following criteria.
■ No particles larger than 3 inches in largest dimension.
■ Free of all organic matter, debris, or other deleterious material.
■ Expansion Index of 20 or less.
■ Sand Equivalent of 20 or greater.
■ Contain less than 30 percent by weight retained in 3/4 -inch sieve.
■ Contain less than 40 percent fines (passing #200 sieve).
Imported materials, if required, should meet the above criteria prior to being used as
compacted fill. Any imported fills should be tested and approved by geotechnical consultant
prior to delivery to the site.
7.4 Compacted Fill Placement
All surfaces to receive structural fills should be scarified to a depth of 12 inches. The soil
should be moisture conditioned to within ±3 percent of optimum moisture content for
coarse-grained soils and 0 to 2 percent above optimum moisture content for fine-grained
soils.
All fill placed at the site should be compacted to at least 90 percent of the laboratory
maximum dry density as determined by ASTM D1557 test method.
Fill materials should not be placed, spread, or compacted during unfavorable weather
conditions. When site grading is interrupted by heavy rain, filling operations should not
resume until the geotechnical consultant approves the moisture and density conditions of
the previously placed fill.
7.5 Shrinkage and Subsidence
Soil shrinkage and/or bulking as a result of remedial grading depends on several factors
including the depth of overexcavation, and the grading method and equipment utilized,
and average relative compaction. For preliminary estimation, bulking and shrinkage
factors for various units of earth material at the site may be taken as presented below:
The approximate shrinkage factor for the undocumented fill soils is estimated to
range from 10 to 15 percent.
The approximate shrinkage factor for the native alluvial soils is estimated to range
from 5 to 10 percent.
For estimation purposes, ground subsidence may be taken as 0.1 feet as a result
of remedial grading.
Although these values are only approximate, they represent our best estimates of the
factors to be used to calculate lost volume that may occur during grading. If more accurate

shrinkage and subsidence factors are needed, it is recommended that field testing using
the actual equipment and grading techniques be conducted.
7.6 Site Drainage
Adequate positive drainage should be provided away from the structure to prevent
ponding and to reduce percolation of water into foundation soils. A desirable slope for
surface drainage is 2 percent in landscaped areas and one percent in paved areas.
8.0 DESIGN RECOMMENDATIONS
The various design recommendations provided in this section are based on the
assumptions that in preparing the site, the earthwork and site grading recommendations
provided in the previous section of this report will be followed.
8.1 Seismic Design Parameters
Seismic parameters based on the 2019 California Building Code (CBC) and ASCE 7-16
with Supplement 1 are calculated using the site coordinates: Latitude = 33.6322 degrees,
Longitude = -117.9394 degrees. The recommended seismic design parameters are
presented below.

8.2 Foundation Design Parameters
8.2.1 Shallow Foundations
An allowable net bearing capacity of 2,000 pounds per square foot (psf) is recommended
for a shallow foundation with a minimum width of 4 feet and minimum embedment depth

of 12 inches below the lowest adjacent grade. This value may be increased by 250 psf
per additional foot of width to a maximum value of 3,000 psf.
Resistance to lateral loading may be provided by friction acting on the base of
foundations. A coefficient of friction of 0.34 may be applied to dead loads to obtain a
sliding resistance.
Passive pressure for structures founded in the engineered fill may be taken as 250 pcf of
equivalent fluid weight for resistance to lateral load. This value may be increased by 250
psf per additional foot of depth to a maximum value of 2,000 psf. When passive resistance
is used in conjunction with friction in determining the total lateral resistance, the passive
resistance should be reduced by one-half (1/2).
The bearing capacity and passive resistance values may be increased by up to one-third
(1/3) when transient loads such as wind and/or seismic loads are included.
8.3 Soil Corrosivity Evaluation
One (1) representative site soil samples were evaluated for corrosivity with respect to
common construction materials such as concrete and steel in contact with subsurface
soils. The test results are presented in the following table.
Test Results
According to Caltrans Corrosion Guidelines (Caltrans, 2018), soils are considered
corrosive if the pH is 5.5 or less, or chloride content is 500 parts per million (ppm) or
greater, or sulfate content is 1,500 ppm or greater, or resistivity less than 2,000 ohm -cm.
Based on Caltrans Corrosion Guidelines, the soils are considered non -corrosive to
concrete or ferrous metals.
Based on American Concrete Institute Publication 318, Building Code Requirements for
Structural Concrete (ACI, 2014), the sulfate content of the sampled soil corresponds to
American Concrete Institute (ACI) exposure category S0. A minimum compressive
strength of 2,500 psi is recommended based on sulfate content.
We anticipate that concrete structures such as footings, slabs, and flatwork will be
exposed to moisture from precipitation and irrigation. Based on the site location and the
results of chloride testing of the site soils, we do not anticipate that concrete structures
will be exposed to external sources of chlorides, such as deicing chemicals, salt, brackish

water, or seawater. ACI specifies exposure category C1 where concrete is exposed to
moisture, but not to external sources of chlorides (ACI 318-14, Table 19.3.1.1). ACI
provides concrete design recommendations in ACI 318-14, Table 19.3.2.1, including a
compressive strength of at least 2,500 psi and a maximum chloride content of 0.3 percent.
This is a conservative assessment based on limited sampling. Additional corrosion testing
should be performed at the completion of grading or as recommended by a qualified
corrosion consultant. Converse does not practice in the area of corrosion consulting. A
qualified corrosion consultant should provide appropriate corrosion mitigation measures.
9.0 CONSTRUCTION RECOMMENDATIONS
9.1 General
Prior to the start of construction, all existing underground utilities should be identified and
located. Such utilities should either be protected in-place or removed and replaced during
construction as required by the project specifications.
Where the side of the excavation is a vertical cut, it should be adequately supported by
temporary shoring to protect workers and any adjacent structures. All applicable
requirements of the California Construction and General Industry Safety Orders, the
Occupational Safety and Health Act, current amendments, and the Construction Safety
Act should be met. The soils exposed in cuts should be observed during excavation by
the owner's representative and the competent person employed by the contractor in
accordance with regulations. If potentially unstable soil conditions are encountered,
modifications of slope ratios for temporary cuts may be required.
9.2 Temporary Sloped Excavations
Based on the materials encountered in the exploratory borings, sloped temporary
excavations may be constructed according to the slope ratios presented in Table No. 8,
Slope Ratios for Temporary Excavation. Any loose utility trench backfill or other fill
encountered in excavations will be less stable than the native soils. Temporary cuts
encountering loose fill or loose dry sand may have to be constructed at a flatter gradient
than presented in table below.

Page 13
Any loose utility trench backfill or other fill encountered in excavations will be less stable
than the native soils. Temporary cuts encountering loose fill or loose dry sand should be
constructed at a flatter gradient than presented in the table above. Surfaces exposed in
slope excavations should be kept moist but not saturated to minimize raveling and
sloughing during construction. Adequate provisions should be made to protect the slopes
from erosion during periods of rainfall. Surcharge loads, including construction, should
not be placed within five (5) feet of the unsupported excavation edge. The above
maximum slopes are based on a maximum height of six (6) feet of stockpiled soils placed
at least five (5) feet from the excavation edge.
All applicable requirements of the California Construction and General Industry Safety
Orders, the Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1987 and current amendments, and
the Construction Safety Act should be met. The soils exposed in cuts should be observed
during excavation by the project's geotechnical consultant. If potentially unstable soil
conditions are encountered, modifications of slope ratios for temporary cuts may be
required.
9.3 Temporary Shoring
Temporary shoring will be required where open sloped excavations are not feasible due
to unstable soils or due to nearby existing structures or facilities. Temporary shoring may
consist of conventional soldier piles and lagging or sheet piles. The shoring for
excavations may be laterally supported by waters and cross bracing or may be
cantilevered. Drilled excavations for soldier piles will require the use of drilling fluids to
prevent caving and to maintain an opened hole for pile installation.
The active earth pressure behind any shoring depends primarily on the allowable
movement, type of backfill materials, backfill slopes, wall inclination, surcharges, and any
hydrostatic pressures.
The lateral earth pressures to be used in the design of shoring for each segment is
presented in the following table.

The provided pressures assume no hydrostatic pressures. If hydrostatic pressures are
allowed to build up, the incremental earth pressures below the groundwater level should
be reduced by 50 percent and added to hydrostatic pressure for total lateral pressure.
Passive resistance includes a safety factor of 1.5. The upper 1 foot for passive resistance
should be ignored unless the surface is confined by a pavement or slab.
In addition to the lateral earth pressure, surcharge pressures due to miscellaneous loads,
such as soil stockpiles, vehicular traffic or construction equipment located adjacent to the
shoring, should be included in the design of the shoring. A uniform lateral pressure of 100
psf should be included in the upper 10 feet of the shoring to account for normal vehicular
and construction traffic within 10 feet of the trench excavation. As previously mentioned,
all shoring should be designed and installed in accordance with state and federal safety
regulations.
The contractor should have provisions for soldier pile and sheet pile removal. All voids
resulting from removal of shoring should be filled. The method for filling voids should be
selected by the contractor, depending on construction conditions, void dimensions and
available materials. The acceptable materials, in general, should be non -deleterious, and
able to flow into the voids created by shoring removal (e.g. concrete slurry, "pea" gravel,
etc.).
Excavations should not extend below a 1:1 (H:V) plane extending from the bottom of any
existing structures, utility lines or streets. Any proposed excavation should not cause loss
of bearing and/or lateral supports of any existing utilities.
9.4 Geotechnical Services During Construction
The project geotechnical consultant should review plans and specifications as the project
design progresses. Such review is necessary to identify design elements, assumptions,
or new conditions which require revisions or additions to our geotechnical
recommendations.
Recommendations presented herein are based upon the assumption that adequate
earthwork monitoring will be provided by Converse. Footing excavations should be
observed by the geotechnical representative prior to placement of steel and concrete so
that footings are founded on satisfactory materials and excavations are free of loose and
disturbed materials. Trench backfill should be placed and compacted with observation
and field density testing provided by this office.
During construction, the geotechnical engineer and/or their authorized representatives
should be present at the site to provide a source of advice to the client regarding the
geotechnical aspects of the project and to observe and test the earthwork performed.
Their presence should not be construed as an acceptance of responsibility for the
performance of the completed work, since it is the sole responsibility of the contractor

performing the work to ensure that it complies with all applicable plans, specifications,
ordinances, etc.
This firm does not practice or consult in the field of safety engineering. We do not direct
the contractor's operations and cannot be responsible for other than our own personnel
on the site; therefore, the safety of others is the responsibility of the contractor. The
contractor should notify the owner if he considers any recommended actions presented
herein to be unsafe.
10.0 CLOSURE
This report is prepared for the project described herein and is intended for use solely by
Dudek and their authorized agents, to assist in the design and construction of the
proposed project. Our findings and recommendations were obtained in accordance with
generally accepted professional principles practiced in geotechnical engineering. We
make no other warranty, either expressed or implied.
Converse Consultants is not responsible or liable for any claims or damages associated
with interpretation of available information provided to others. Site exploration identifies
actual soil conditions only at those points where samples are taken, when they are taken.
Data derived through sampling and laboratory testing is extrapolated by Converse
employees who render an opinion about the overall soil conditions. Actual conditions in
areas not sampled may differ. In the event that changes to the project occur, or additional,
relevant information about the project is brought to our attention, the recommendations
contained in this report may not be valid unless these changes and additional relevant
information are reviewed and the recommendations of this report are modified or verified
in writing. In addition, the recommendations can only be finalized by observing actual
subsurface conditions revealed during construction. Converse cannot be held responsible
for misinterpretation or changes to our recommendations made by others during
construction.
As the project evolves, continued consultation and construction monitoring by a qualified
geotechnical consultant should be considered an extension of geotechnical investigation
services performed to date. The geotechnical consultant should review plans and
specifications to verify that the recommendations presented herein have been
appropriately interpreted, and that the design assumptions used in this report are valid.
Where significant design changes occur, Converse may be required to augment or modify
the recommendations presented herein. Subsurface conditions may differ in some
locations from those encountered in the explorations, and may require additional analyses
and, possibly, modified recommendations.
Design recommendations given in this report are based on the assumption that the
recommendations contained in this report are implemented. Additional consultation may
be prudent to interpret Converse's findings for contractors, or to possibly refine these
recommendations based upon the review of the actual site conditions encountered during

APPENDIX A
FIELD EXPLORATION
To investigate the subsurface conditions at the project site, Converse conducted two (2)
exploratory borings (BH -1 and BH -2) on June 16, 2020. The approximate locations of the
exploratory borings are shown in Figure No. 2, Boring Location Map. The exploration
locations and depths were selected by Converse in consultation with Dudek.
The borings were drilled using a 4 -inch diameter hand auger device to a maximum depth
of 21 feet below existing ground surface (bgs). Each boring was visually logged by a
Converse engineer and sampled at regular intervals and at changes in subsurface soils.
Modified California (Ring) samples and bulk soil samples were obtained for laboratory
testing. A 12 -inch long split -barrel sampler was driven at selected depths by dropping a
hammer weighing 45 pounds from a height of approximately 18 inches, not freely falling
but with additional force from the driller. The hammer blow counts were not recorded.
Modified California drive samples were collected with a 3.0 -inch outside diameter 2.5 -
inch inside diameter split -barrel sampler and a 2.42 -inch inside diameter cutting shoe.
The sampler barrel was lined with 12 inches of metal rings for sample collection. Stainless
steel or brass liner rings for sample collection are 1 -inch high, 2.42 -inch inside diameter,
and 2.5 -inch outside diameter. Modified California drive samples were retained in the
metal rings and placed in sealed plastic canisters to prevent loss of moisture.
Since groundwater was not encountered during drilling, all the boreholes were abandoned
after the investigation by backfilling with soil cuttings. No waste (extra soil cuttings) were
generated.
A key to soil symbols and terms is presented as Figure No. A-1, Unified Soil Classification
and Key to Boring Log Symbols. The logs of the exploratory borings are presented in
Figure Nos. A-2 and A-3.

APPENDIX B
LABORATORY TESTING PROGRAM
Tests were conducted in our laboratory on representative soil samples for the purpose of
classification and evaluation of their relevant physical characteristics and engineering
properties. The amount and selection of tests were based on the geotechnical
requirements of the project. Test results are presented herein and on the Logs of Borings
in Appendix A, Field Exploration. The following is a summary of the laboratory tests
conducted for this project.
Moisture Content and Dry Densit
In-situ moisture content and dry density tests were performed on relatively undisturbed
ring samples in accordance with ASTM D2216 and D2937 test methods, respectively.
The tests were conducted to aid in the classification of the soils and to provide quantitative
measure of the in-situ dry density. Data obtained from the tests provides qualitative
information on strength and compressibility characteristics of site soils. The test results
are presented in the Logs of Borings in Appendix A.
Expansion Index
One (1) representative bulk sample was tested to evaluate the expansion potential of
material encountered at the site. The test was conducted in accordance with ASTM
D4829. Test results are presented in the following table.
ion Index Test Result
Soil Corrosivity
One (1) representative bulk soil sample was tested to determine minimum electrical
resistivity, pH, and chemical content, including chloride concentrations, and soluble
sulfate. The purpose of these tests is to determine the corrosion potential of site soils
when placed in contact with common construction materials. These tests were performed
by EG Lab, Inc. in Arcadia, California. The test results received from EG Lab are included
in the following table.

Maximum Dry Density Test
A laboratory maximum dry density -moisture content relationship test was performed on
one (1) representative bulk soil sample. The test was conducted in accordance with
ASTM Standard D1557 laboratory procedure. The test result is presented on Figure No.
B-2, Moisture -Density Relationship Results.
Direct Shear
Direct shear test was performed on one (1) undisturbed soil sample in accordance with
ASTM D3080 test method in saturated condition. For this test, three (3) ring samples
contained in the Modified California drive sampler were placed, one at a time, directly into
the test apparatus and subjected to a range of normal loads appropriate for the anticipated
conditions. The samples were then sheared at a constant strain rate of 0.01 inch/minute.
Shear deformation was recorded until a maximum of about 0.25 -inch shear displacement
was achieved. Ultimate strength was selected from the shear -stress deformation data
and plotted to determine the shear strength parameters. For test data, including sample
density and moisture content, see Figure No. B-3, Direct Shear Test Results and
summarized in the following table.

1 Proposal Background
In December of 2019 Enterprise Automation (EA) was awarded a 5-year professional
services contract to provide as needed SCADA and controls integration services to the
City of Newport Beach.
The City of Newport Beach Public Works Department is planning to hire a contractor to
provide and implement instrumentation, control system hardware, and PLC/SCADA
programming upgrades for the City's 16th Street Pump Station Back -Up Generator. The
contractor hired for this project will hire the City's Approved System Integrator,
Enterprise Automation, to provide integration services for the pump station's PLC and
SCADA systems.
This proposal has been developed to address the services EA will be providing during
this project.
2 Project Goals
The goals of this project are:
1. Investigate the existing PLC panel to build an 10 list and Bill of Materials
2. Develop a control narrative to detail the PLC/SCADA program modifications to
be made during this project
3. Deliver the finished program by completing programming, testing, and
commissioning procedures
4. Assist the hired contractor throughout the project
a. Provide a hardware BOM
b. Provide work orders for electrical and hardware installation
3 Project Approach
Our project approach is designed to:
1. Reduce overall project risk by thoroughly reviewing construction design
documentation and instrument/equipment submittals prior to integration
2. Maximize client engagement at all necessary levels (operations, maintenance,
and management) to ensure that the project deliverables meet the needs of user
base
3. Utilize and leverage existing City standards and configurations

4. Test everything where practical, prior to site deployment to reduce the
probability of rework being necessary in the field
4 Scope of Work
This section details the scope of work for tasks included in the estimate in Appendix A,
which are arranged to represent the expected order of execution.
At the bottom of each section will be a summary of the deliverables to be produced.
• Client deliverables: items EA will produce and submit to the client
• Internal deliverables: items EA will produce for internal use (available by request)
4.1 Project Management
EA will provide a dedicated project manager to be the main point of contact and steward
all communication through EA. The PM has primary responsibility for this project's
scope, budget, and schedule.
The PM will prepare a project schedule, publish it, and periodically update it as the
project unfolds. At the commencement of the project, the PM will submit the schedule to
the City and their contractor in electronic format.
Throughout the life of the project, the PM will perform all commercial, budget, and
project tracking related updates. The labor estimate for project management is
comprised of the "Initiation" sheet in the cost estimate in Appendix A, plus a fixed
percentage of all other engineering hours (as shown in the estimate).
For each workshop or meeting involving key project decisions, EA's PM will draft and
release meeting minutes with action items and dates assigned within one week.
Key Project Management Roles and Activities:
1. Primary point of contact, communications coordination
2. Project scheduling
3. Internal project team meeting coordination
4. Project status tracking (daily/weekly)
5. Project status communication with the City and their contractor
6. Project invoices and tracking report (monthly)
7. Project coordination
8. Procurement oversight

Enterprise Automation
210 Goddard Irvine CA 92618 USA
Tel 949-769-6000 Fax 949-769-6005
www.eaintegrator.com
The PM will contact project manager of the City's contractor a minimum of once every
two weeks, via email, to provide status updates for all ongoing tasks. This standard
practice helps to maintain an open line of communication when current project activities
do not require direct contact between EA and the City's contractor.
4.2 Project initiation
The "Initiation" sheet in the estimate includes activities associated with starting the
project. This includes setting up the project in our accounting, project tracking, and
manpower planning systems.
4.2.1 Internal kickoff
Once a PM is assigned and an engineering team has been established, they will perform
an internal team kickoff to review the following:
• Customer history
• Relevant parties involved
• Relevant documentation (specs, designs, etc...;
• Project scope, budget, schedule, and risk areas
The risk register is an especially valuable tool that is developed during or shortly after
the internal kickoff. Engineers use it to track any and all risks (commercial, technical,
coordination, etc.) and develop mitigation strategies. The risk register is updated on a
regular basis throughout the life of a project and is available for client review at any time.
4.2.2 Onsite project kickoff meeting
Following the internal kickoff meeting EA will prepare for a formal kickoff meeting onsite
and release an agenda with items that EA wants to cover, at least one week prior to the
meeting. EA's project team, including project engineers and the project manager, will
attend the formal kickoff meeting with the City and their contractor.
Meeting minutes will be published containing action items with assigned responsibilities
and due dates. EA will schedule the formal kickoff as soon as possible.

Enterprise Automation
210 Goddard Irvine CA 92618 USA
Tel 949-769-6000 Fax 949-769-6005
www.eaintegrator.com
At EA, execution planning is an engineering activity whereby the engineers document
the systematic process required to generate each deliverable. These plans are
continually updated as engineering work is completed such that the team can accurately
predict their future budget performance. This is an elementary activity of EA's
preparation and quality control process.
EA engineers (typically the Lead Engineer) will set up the execution plan templates prior
to the kickoff meeting. The templates are based on this scope and estimate.
Once the kickoff meetings are complete and mutual understanding of the scope is
confirmed, EA will update and add more detail to the execution plans developed
previously.
4.2.3.2 Team check-in meetings
Internal project team meetings between the EA PM and EA engineering staff are
conducted regularly during all projects. These meetings are used to discuss overall
project status, budget, schedule, scope, and risk scenarios. The risk register is updated
as known risks are averted or mitigated and new risk scenarios are identified.
We consider these formal meetings a critical component to our success as they facilitate
team coordination and collaboration in an organized and controlled manner.
Initiation Key Deliverables
Client:
a) Kickoff meeting minutes
b) Project Schedule in Gantt format
Internal:

b) Initial risk register
4.3 Investigation
To fully understand what is in the existing generator panel, EA's team will visit and
investigate the PLC panel. EA will take detailed site pictures and notes while onsite to
use throughout the setup of this project.
From this site investigation, EA will be able to update and confirm the existing 10 list is
accurate. Additionally, this investigation will provide EA's team with enough information
to create a hardware BOM for the contractor. It is assumed EA will not do any
procurement for this project.

www.eaintegrator.com
EA will create a control strategy document to identify the modified/new PLC and SCADA
code and describe how the programs are expected to function. This will act as an
informal functional narrative for the PLC panel to be used for the scope of this project.
Based on discussion with the City, EA will address program modifications with both the
PLC program and the SCADA system. EA will add miscellaneous program modifications
if the contractor requests any during discussions.
EA will host a control strategy review meeting with the contractor to discuss control
strategy in more detail and to review the specifications EA created for the PLC and
SCADA program modifications. EA will also review and discuss the existing SCADA
graphics and screens as well as any notes or comments EA may have from the PLC
panel site investigation. The intent of this workshop is to confirm EA and the contractor
are on the same page and to ensure that all modifications requested by the contractor
will be addressed.

lead engineer. EA will develop test procedures and submit them to the contractor for
review. After their development, EA's team will execute the testing procedures and
checklists. The testing will cover the following items and more:
Point to point testing against the specification
Screen navigation and animations
Trending
As the test procedures are executed, the engineers will log all non -conformances in EA
standard format and make corrections. Once the project manager, lead engineer, and
testing engineers review and approve the completed test documentation, the system will
be released for witnessed FAT.
4.8.2 SCADA witnessed FAT
EA will host a witnessed SCADA FAT for City and contractor representatives virtually.
The FAT will cover the entire configured system through an abridged version of the
internal testing procedure. EA will work with the contractor to define the FAT procedure.
The FAT will conclude with formal sign -off by the contractor which signifies that the
software is approved for installation on site. If the FAT ends with a punchlist of non -
conformances, EA will address them before deployment.
The completed and signed -off FAT documentation will be scanned and submitted to the
City and contractor in electronic format within two weeks of FAT completion.
Testing Key Deliverables
Client:
a) Internal integrated testing procedures and checklists
b) FAT document draft
Internal:
a) Configured and tested SCADA platform
4.9 Commissioning
