City, contractors, or governmental agencies.
9. HOLD HARMLESS
9.1 To the fullest extent permitted by law, Consultant shall indemnify, defend
and hold harmless City, its City Council, boards and commissions, officers, agents,

and all claims (including, without limitation, claims for bodily injury, death or damage to
property), demands, obligations, damages, actions, causes of action, suits, losses,
judgments, fines, penalties, liabilities, costs and expenses (including, without limitation,
attorneys' fees, disbursements and court costs) of every kind and nature whatsoever
(individually, a Claim; collectively, "Claims"), which may arise under this Agreement or in
any manner relate (directly or indirectly) to the negligence, recklessness, or willful
misconduct of the Consultant or its principals, officers, agents, employees, vendors,
suppliers, subconsultants, subcontractors, anyone employed directly or indirectly by any
of them or for whose acts they may be liable, or any or all of them.
9.2 Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall be construed to
require Consultant to indemnify the Indemnified Parties from any Claim arising from the
sole negligence, active 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 Agreement. This indemnity shall apply to
all claims and liability regardless of whether any insurance policies are applicable. The
policy limits do not act as a limitation upon the amount of indemnification to be provided
by the Consultant.
10. INDEPENDENT CONTRACTOR
It is understood that City retains Consultant on an independent contractor basis
and Consultant is not an agent or employee of City. The manner and means of
Ninyo & Moore Geotechnical & Environmental Sciences Consultants Page 4
conducting the Work are under the control of Consultant, except to the extent they are
limited by statute, rule or regulation and the expressed terms of this Agreement. No
civil service status or other right of employment shall accrue to Consultant or its
employees. Nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to constitute approval for
Consultant or any of Consultant's employees or agents, to be the agents or employees
of City. Consultant shall have the responsibility for and control over the means of
performing the Work, provided that Consultant is in compliance with the terms of this
Agreement. Anything in this Agreement that may appear to give City the right to direct
Consultant as to the details of the performance of the Work or to exercise a measure of
control over Consultant shall mean only that Consultant shall follow the desires of City
with respect to the results of the Services.
11. COOPERATION
Consultant agrees to work closely and cooperate fully with City's designated
Project Administrator and any other agencies that may have jurisdiction or interest in the
Work to be performed. City agrees to cooperate with the Consultant on the Project.
12. CITY POLICY
Consultant shall discuss and review all matters relating to policy and Project
direction with City's Project Administrator in advance of all critical decision points in
order to ensure the Project proceeds in a manner consistent with City goals and
policies.
13. PROGRESS
Consultant is responsible for keeping the Project Administrator informed on a
regular basis regarding the status and progress of the Project, activities performed and
planned, and any meetings that have been scheduled or are desired.
14. INSURANCE
Without limiting Consultant's indemnification of City, and prior to commencement
of Work, Consultant shall obtain, provide and maintain at its own expense during the
term of this Agreement or for other periods as specified in this Agreement, policies of
insurance of the type, amounts, terms and conditions described in the Insurance
Requirements attached hereto as Exhibit C, and incorporated herein by reference.
15. PROHIBITION AGAINST ASSIGNMENTS AND TRANSFERS
Except as specifically authorized under this Agreement, the Services to be
provided under this Agreement shall not be assigned, transferred contracted or
subcontracted out without the prior written approval of City. Any of the following shall
be construed as an assignment: The sale, assignment, transfer or other disposition of
any of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Consultant, or of the interest of any
general partner or joint venturer or syndicate member or cotenant if Consultant is a
partnership or joint -venture or syndicate or co -tenancy, which shall result in changing
Ninyo & Moore Geotechnical & Environmental Sciences Consultants Page 5
the control of Consultant. Control means fifty percent (50%) or more of the voting
power or twenty-five percent (25%) or more of the assets of the corporation, partnership
or joint -venture.
16. SUBCONTRACTING
The subcontractors authorized by City, if any, to perform Work on this Project are
identified in Exhibit A. Consultant shall be fully responsible to City for all acts and
omissions of any subcontractor. Nothing in this Agreement shall create any contractual
relationship between City and any 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 City. Except as specifically authorized herein, the
Services to be provided under this Agreement shall not be otherwise assigned,
transferred, contracted or subcontracted out without the prior written approval of City.

Any opinion of the construction cost prepared by Consultant represents the
Consultant's judgment as a design professional and is supplied for the general guidance

immediate right to appeal to the City Manager or designee with respect to such disputed
sums. Consultant shall be entitled to receive interest on any withheld sums at the rate of

withholding of any amounts found to have been improperly withheld.
23. ERRORS AND OMISSIONS

Newport Beach, California
Reference: 2015, Aerially Deposited Lead and Limited Site Investigation,
Newport Boulevard and 32nd Street, Modification Project, Newport Beach,

Dear Mr. Tran:
In accordance with the City of Newport Beach request, Ninyo & Moore is pleased to present this
proposal to provide environmental consulting services and soils and materials testing services
related to the Newport Boulevard and 32nd Street Modification Project (Project) in Newport
Beach, California (site).
Ninyo & Moore conducted an aerially deposited lead and limited site investigation for the
Project, the results of which were summarized in the referenced report. Due to the presence of
volatile organic compounds (VOCs), recommendations included that the soil excavated in the
vicinity of boring SI1 should be monitored by the contractor in accordance with South Coast Air
Quality Management District (SCAQMD) Rule 1166. The minimum area of soil to be monitored
is within the proposed right-of-way and bike lane to the northern site location boundary, and 280
feet to the south of boring Sl1 along the proposed bike lane on the western portion of Newport
Boulevard. A Rule 1166 Various Locations notification should be made prior to commencing any
excavation work. In addition, if any discolored, stained, or odoriferous soil is encountered in
other areas during construction, work at those locations should stop, and the soil should be
monitored and handled in accordance with SCAQMD Rule 1166.

Our scope for environmental consulting services described below is to notify and perform the
recommended VOC monitoring in accordance with SCAQMD Rule 1166 requirements.
• Ninyo & Moore will submit the SCAQMD Rule 1166 notification form and fees to the
SCAQMD at least 72 hours in advance if excavation activities.
• Up to ten 8 -hour day shifts of SCAQMD Rule 1166 monitoring will be performed by Ninyo &
Moore in accordance with our Various Locations SCAQMD Rule 1166 Contaminated Soil
Mitigation Plan (Rule 1166 Permit). Rule 1166 Permit requirements include monitoring for
emissions of VOCs at least once every 15 minutes commencing at the beginning of
excavation and recording concentrations of VOCs. VOC concentrations will be measured
using an organic vapor analyzer calibrated with hexane.
• VOC concentrations will be measured by placing the probe inlet at a distance of no more
than 3 -inches from the surface of the excavated soil and slowly moving the probe across
the soil surface, observing the instrument readout. If an increasing meter reading is ob-
served, monitoring will continue to screen the excavated soil until the maximum meter
reading is obtained.
• Written records containing the VOC concentrations will be included on the SCAQMD Rule
1166 Soil Monitoring Record forms. A letter report will be submitted to SCAQMD within 30
days of the initial detection of contaminated soil. The report will be prepared in accordance
with the requirements noted in the Rule 1166 Permit.

Ninyo & Moore at least one week prior to excavation activities which may impact soils that
are contaminated with VOCs.
• If VOCs greater than 50 parts per million by volume (ppmv) are measured in excavated soil,
that soil must be sprayed with water and stockpiled/removed from the site in accordance
with the Rule 1166 Permit.
• If VOCs greater than 1,000 ppmv are measured in the excavated soil, that soil must be
immediately containerized in vapor tight containers and removed from the site in
accordance with the Rule 1166 Permit.
• The contractor will be prepared to respond in accordance with the Rule.1166 Permit should
elevated VOCs be measured.
• Contaminated soil loading, transportation, and soil disposal is the responsibility of others.
• The contractor will provide soil disposal manifests, if any, to Ninyo & Moore within 2 weeks

B. City's Right to Revise Requirements. City reserves the right at any time
during the term of the Agreement to change the amounts and types of
insurance required by giving Consultant sixty (60) calendar days advance
written notice of such change. If such change results in substantial
additional cost to Consultant, City and Consultant may renegotiate
Consultant's compensation.
C. Enforcement of Agreement Provisions. Consultant acknowledges and
agrees that any actual or alleged failure on the part of City to inform
Consultant of non-compliance with any requirement imposes no additional
obligations on City nor does it waive any rights hereunder.
D. Requirements not Limiting. Requirements of specific coverage features
or limits contained in this Section 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
Consultant maintains higher limits than the minimums shown above, the
City requires and shall be entitled to coverage for higher limits maintained
by the Consultant. Any available insurance proceeds in excess of the
specified minimum limits of insurance and coverage shall be available to
the City.
E. Self-insured Retentions. Any self-insured retentions must be declared to
and approved by City. City reserves the right to require that self-insured
retentions be eliminated, lowered, or replaced by a deductible. Self-
insurance will not be considered to comply with these requirements unless
approved by City.
F. City Remedies for Non -Compliance. If Consultant or any subconsultant
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 Agreement, or to suspend Consultant'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 Consultant or
reimbursed by Consultant upon demand.
G. 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.
H. Consultant's Insurance. Consultant shall also procure and maintain, at its
own cost and expense, any additional kinds of insurance, which in its own
