insurance policies, at any time.

agreements with subcontractors or others with whom Consultant enters into
contracts with on behalf of City will be submitted to City for review. Failure

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 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.
E. 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.
F. 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.
G. 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.
H. Timely Notice of Claims. Consultant shall give City prompt and timely notice
of claims made or suits instituted that arise out of or result from Consultant's
performance under this Agreement, and that involve or may involve
coverage under any of the required liability policies. City assumes no
Pacific Towing, LLC Page C-4
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.
Consultant's Insurance. Consultant shall also procure and maintain, at its
own cost and expense, any additional kinds of insurance, which in its own
judgment may be necessary for its proper protection and prosecution of the
Work.

danger of being abandoned, and therefore has a likelihood of causing
environmental degradation or becoming a hazard to navigation.
(2) The decision to accept a vessel is based solely on the potential of the
vessel to likely be abandoned and cause environmental degradation or
become a hazard to navigation."
f. The funds provided under this Agreement shall not be utilized for surrender,
abatement, removal, storage, or disposal of commercial vessels. Commercial vessels
include those vessels for which the most recent registration or documentation was

a. Upon approval by DBW, pay Agency B the invoiced amount within 30 days
and record as a pass-through grant (or use your accounting method
preference).
b. Complete DBW's AWAF and/or VTIP Reimbursement Claim Form and
attach all supporting documents as listed in item b, c & d above, including
the verification of payment to Agency B i.e., cancelled check or statement
Contract # C19S0608. City of Newport Beach, Surrendered and Abandoned Vessel Exchange (SAVE) Fiscal Year 2019/2020. Date: 12/20/2019 Page: 15 of 37

any way to activities carried out by Agency A and B, its agents, officers, contractors,
subcontractors and/or employees, under this Agreement Agency A and B shall protect, hold

Bid/Proposal Attachment regarding the Darfur Contracting Act of 2008
Effective January 1, 2009, all Invitations for Bids (IFB) or Requests for Proposals (RFP) for goods or
services must address the requirements of the Darfur Contracting Act of 2008 (Act). (Public Contract
Code sections 10475, et seq,; Stats. 2008, Ch. 272). The Act was passed by the California
Legislature and signed into law by the Governor to preclude State agencies generally from contracting
with "scrutinized" companies that do business in the African nation of Sudan (of which the Darfur
region is a part), for the reasons described in Public Contract Code section 10475.
A scrutinized company is a company doing business in Sudan as defined in Public Contract Code
section 10476. Scrutinized companies are ineligible to, and cannot, bid on or submit a proposal for a
contract with a State agency for goods or services. (Public Contract Code section 10477(a)).
Therefore, Public Contract Code section 10478 (a) requires a company that currently has (or within
the previous three years has had) business activities or other operations outside of the United States
to certify that it is not a "scrutinized" company when it submits a bid or proposal to a State agency.
(See # 1 on the sample Attachment).
A scrutinized company may still, however, submit a bid or proposal for a contract with a State agency
for goods or services if the company first obtains permission from the Department of General Services
(DGS) according to the criteria set forth in Public Contract Code section 10477(b). (See # 2 on the
sample Attachment).
The following sample Attachment may be included in an IFB or RFP to satisfy the Act's certification
requirements of bidders and proposers.

EXHIBIT G - Grant Application: Letter of Intent, Scope of Work and Work Plan
Agency Type and Area of Responsibility (AOR)
Newport Harbor is one of the largest, small craft recreational harbors on the California Coast. Home to
approximately 4,500 vessels, Newport Harbor is a welcome port to many boaters as they cruise the Pacific or travel
within their home waters. The City of Newport Beach (City) manages many of the visitor -serving amenities within the
harbor. The goal of the City's Harbor Department is to provide information and services to harbor users whether
they are boating visitors, anchor their vessel year round or call the harbor home. The City also encourages public
access to the water, providing and maintaining slips and moorings available to rent for guests and locals alike. The
City operates five public pump outs, two marinas and twelve public docks. However, with the accessibility to these
public recreational amenities also comes abandonment, illegal berthing and derelict vessels. The City works with
vessel owners encouraging them to maintain their vessels in a seaworthy and operable manner. However, legal
action is sometimes required to handle impounds, liens, junking and demolition of vessels. Historically, the City has
assisted boaters in Newport Harbor, nearby harbors and even those with trailered boats, with the process of turning
in derelict vessels and removing those that inhibit the enjoyment and safety of harbor waters.
2. Statement of Need
The City has demonstrated both the need to remediate problem vessels through Abandoned Watercraft Abatement
Fund (AWAF), as well as the ability to assist boaters with Vessel Tum in Program (VTIP). The City was the recipient
of the SAVE 2017/18 grant and is close to exhausting all funds. With the help of the SAVE grant during this most
recent cycle, the City was able to remove and demolish more than 25 vessels. In addition, through the City's Code
Enforcement efforts approximately 200 cases were managed associated with the vessels that were either
inoperable, unseaworthy or in some state of disrepair. Of those cases, approximately 30 could have resulted in
abandonment if not for the efforts of the City to work to have the vessel owner remediate their condition.
Interested parties from all over the county continue to inquire as to how the City's grant funding can be used to
assist them. We currently have a VTIP waitlist of 12 vessels, in addition to 16 other vessels owners that have
expressed interest of adding their boats to the list.
The City of Newport Beach works to address abandoned watercraft in Newport Harbor. Duties to mitigate vessels
include:
• Regular and focused communication with vessel owners;
• Relocation of problem vessels;
• Pumping out vessels that have taken on water;
• Processing DMV paperwork for liens, junking, etc.; and
• Coordination with local marine contractors and shipyards to relocate vessels for haul -out and demolition

Contract* C19S0608, City of Newport Beach, Surrendered and Abandoned Vessel Exchange (SAVE) Fiscal Year 2019/2020, Date: 1212012019 Page: 32 of 37
EXHIBIT G - Grant Application: Letter of Intent, Scope of Work and Work Plan
1. Legal authority to remove abandoned vessels
The City of Newport Beach is the lead agency in Newport Harbor, according to State of Califomia Tidelands Grant
Section 1, Chapter 74, Statutes of 1978, and partners with the Orange County Sheriffs Department to enforce
boating safety. The O.C. Sheriff's Department Harbor Patrol has jurisdiction in Newport Harbor according to Harbors
and Navigation Code 510.
2. Agency Experience
As one of the largest small craft recreational harbors on the west coast, Newport Harbor welcomes and serves
transient and local boaters alike. However, over the years, some boaters have found themselves financially unable
to maintain their vessels, opting to turn in their vessel or simply letting the vessel become derelict and/or
abandoned. Transient boaters frequently abandon vessels in Newport Harbor with the idea that the local agencies
will remediate the blight.
The City of Newport Beach has previously received funding for VTIP and AWAF through multiple grant cycles. In FY
2014-2016, the City received $125,700. In FY 2017 - 2019, the City received $125,000 in SAVE Grant aid. Apart
from serving the needs of the Newport Harbor, the City works with the County of Orange to abate vessels from
coastal waterways and receive tum -ins from the local inland areas and other counties. The City is seeking an
increase in funds in order to further assist the many boat owners who are unable to financially maintain their boats
and are currently on a waitlist for VTIP. Current remaining SAVE Grant funds only suffice for at risk Abandoned and
Derelict Vessels (ADV) that have the potential to sink and are currently occupying space on City moorings and dingy
racks, inhibiting further public use of moorings and dingy racks.
City of Newport Beach staff has extensive experience working with boaters as they request assistance turning in
vessels. Due to the cost of hauling out and maintenance, some boaters resort to abandoning their vessels. In those
cases, the City of Newport Beach takes action to relocate, investigate the case and ultimately demolish the vessels.
The current SAVE agreement between the City and the State is nearly exhausted. At this time, there are
approximately 10 impounded and abandoned boats that the City will demolish pending a new grant agreement. In
addition, there are numerous parties on waitlist who have expressed interest in taking advantage of the VTIP
program should the City receive additional funding.
3a. Adjudication Procedures -identifying ADV's
The City of Newport Beach's Harbor Department along with the OC Sheriffs Department Harbor Patrol work to
identify problem vessels and make contact with the vessel owners. Staff will determine whether the vessel can be
brought into compliance and vessel owners are encouraged to work on their vessels. Other vessels that are
inoperable and not seaworthy are also solicited for the VTIP program.
City Harbor Department staff patrol the waters of Newport Harbor and identify vessel condition and ownership. The
City Harbor Department staff enforce Newport Beach Municipal Code Chapter 17, also known as the Harbor Code.
Since using the SAVE grant, the intensity of abandoned vessels have decreased due to the VTIP option. Staff
encourages owners of derelict and neglected vessels to turn in their vessels, and make the process as easy as
possible for those owners. However, there are instances when vessels are abandoned in the public anchorage,
piers and mooring fields.
3b. Adjudication Procedures -Removal Process
Large vessels that are abandoned or impounded are secured and locked to an offshore mooring. Small crafts are
hauled into dry storage. Staff attempts notification to the last owner for all vessels with identification markings (CF
Numbers or federal registration), especially those valued over $1,500. Small crafts such as dinghies, rowboats,
kayaks and other non -registered craft are auctioned to the public on a regular basis.
3 c. Adjudication Procedures - Lien proceedures
The City follows a multi -step adjudication process. The process begins by requesting vessel information from the
Contract # C19S0608, City of Newport Beach, Surrendered and Abandoned Vessel Exchange (SAVE) Fiscal Year 2019/2020, Date: 12/20/2019 Page: 33 of 37
EXHIBIT G - Grant Application: Letter of Intent, Scope of Work and Work Plan
Police Department's DMV information log, in attempts to identify the registered owner of the vessel. Once the City
obtains the registered owner's name and address, the City notifies the owner, via certified mail, that their vessel has
been impounded due to code enforcement violations or for abandonment. After at least 30 days and up to 90 days,
if the registered owner has not contacted the City, the vessel is prepared for a lien sale. For vessels with a value
over $1,500, the City submits a DMV Application for Lien Sale Authorization. In addition, the City notified the owner
and any interested parties of a pending Lien Sale, in addition to outlining how the vessel may be claimed before the
auction. The City then advertises the upcoming auction on the City's website and in local newspapers. On the
auction date, if the vessel is sold, the City holds the property for 10 days before releasing it to the buyer. If the
vessel is not sold, then bids are collected from our contractors for its destruction and removal.
3 d. Adjudication Procedures - Destruction of Vessels
The City's grant funding is used specifically for the destruction and removal of larger vessels that are costly and
have had DMV or USCG documentation records. Following the auction, if a vessel is not sold and has a clear title,
the City requests bids from qualified contractors for the vessel's destruction. The City then moves forward with the
lowest qualifying bid and authorizes the destruction.
4 a. Vessel Registration
Does your agency regularly check vessels in your AOR for current registrations? f? Yes r No
4 b. Agency prevention efforts of abandoned vessels
The City of Newport Beach Harbor Department staff works with the boating community to keep vessels seaworthy
and operable. Harbor Department staff conducts patrols of the offshore mooring field, anchorage, public piers and
marinas, actively inspecting vessel conditions. Staff investigates reports of distressed vessels and when issues of
concern are discovered, they make contact with owner on record. All mooring permittees are required to submit
proof of vessel insurance. All short-term mooring renters and marina slip tenants are also required to demonstrate
proof of insurance. Annually, mooring live-aboards are required to demonstrate vessel operability and
seaworthiness, as well as showing that the holding tank is in good working order and free of leaks. The Newport
Beach Harbor Commission supports staff in the identification and remediation of problem vessels.

Outreach / Advertising plan for implementing and / or increase the Vessel Turn -In Program
• The Newport Beach City Council and Harbor Commission have an active interest in the condition of
vessels in Newport Harbor. Staff regularly reports to Council and Commission on the progress or
remediating derelict vessels from the Harbor and those either trailered or towed for disposal. Interested
parties contact staff directly. The DBW SAVE Grant webpage directs people to contact the City on the
webpage. In the coming year, along with additional funding, the City would like to set aside a portion of the
SAVE Grant to specifically service VTIP vessels. The City has prepared a webpage and flyers for further
outreach. The City will also order VTIP flyers from the Division of Boating and Waterways.
• Newport Harbor is home to 1,200 moorings, 1,200 residential piers, dry storage and 60 marinas. There is
a need in Newport Harbor to assist with a deteriorating and aging boating community. Removing problem
vessels clears the mooring field, marinas and docks, creating more open space for recreation and
providing more availability for new boaters to store vessels in Newport harbor. The City certainly works to
remediate issues specific to Newport Harbor, yet accepts vessels from the surrounding area. City staff
understands that the grant funding should not only be used in our Harbor, but also assist the boating
community in our county's region, as a whole.
