SUBJECT: SURVEY ON -CALL SERVICES - APPROVAL OF AMENDMENT NO. 1
TO PROFESSIONAL SERVICES AGREEMENTS WITH COAST
SURVEY AND ADVANCED SURVEY CONCEPTS AND APPROVAL OF
PROFESSIONAL SERVICES AGREEMENT WITH BUSH AND
ASSOCIATES
RECOMMENDATIONS:
1. Approve Amendment No. 1 to Professional Services Agreement with Coast Survey,
Inc. and Amendment No. 1 to Professional Services Agreement with Advanced
Survey Concepts for on -call survey services and authorize the Mayor and City Clerk
to execute the Amendments.
2. Approve a Professional Services Agreement with Bush and Associates for on -call
survey services and authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to execute the Agreement.
DISCUSSION:
On June 28, 2005, the City Council approved Professional Services Agreements with
Coast Surveying (Coast), Advanced Survey Concepts (ASC), and Walden and
Associates (Walden) to provide as needed on -call survey services. On -call agreements
allow staff to retain specialized services that are regularly required for many
construction projects at fees that are set for a two year period of time.
Over the last two years, these on -call agreements have proven to be very effective and
efficient. Coast and ASC have performed survey services for about twelve (12) projects
for the City over the past two years. Walden has performed a few projects but
response times have been slow due to the firm's other demands. For that reason, staff
is recommending the approval of a Professional Services Agreement with Bush and
Associates (Bush).
• Survey On -Call Services — pro Professional Services Agreements
May 08, 2007
Page 2
The proposed Fiscal Year 2007/08 CIP has over 100 projects estimated at $37 million.
Survey services typically cost under $10,000 to produce survey base mapping or
perform construction staking. Many projects will require survey services. Staff
recommends approval of the attached amendments to extend the agreements with
Coast and ASC, which are set to expire on June 30, 2007, and authorization of a new
contract with Bush and Associates. Both Coast and ASC have provided exceptional
service on numerous projects. Rates included in the agreements are competitive and in
line with industry standards. Bush also has performed well previously under contract
with the City and as the designated subcontractor to design firms on larger projects.
Funding Availability:
Funds for these services are available in each of the speck project accounts within the
City Council approved Capital Improvement Programs.
Environmental Review:
Environmental clearances will be completed for each Capital Improvement Project.

EXHIBIT A
Subject: Qualifications to provide On -Call Soils, Material Inspection, and Testing
Services for the City of Newport Beach
Dear Mr. Badum:
Thank you for inviting Leighton Consulting Inc., to participate on your Request for
Qualifications (RFQ) dated May 25, 2005 for On -Call Soils, Material Inspection, and Testing
Services. In response to your request, we are pleased to submit this qualifications
document for providing On -Call Soils, Materials Inspection and Testing Services during the
planning, design, administration and inspection of capital projects, as well as special
investigations and reports.
Leighton is prepared to provide soils and materials inspection and testing services for your
CIP projects; our services are expected to include the following:
Field Observation and Testing: Our technicians and /or engineers will evaluate the
excavation, imported earth materials to be used for fill and backfill and compaction
procedures under the supervision of the project manager. We will provide backfill density
testing using nuclear gauges and sand cones, in accordance with ASTM (e.g. ASTM D 1556
and D 2922) and /or Caltrans (CT 231 and CT 375) standard test methods as required by the
right -of -way jurisdiction. Our technicians will submit an original copy of their Daily Field
Report (DFR) to your inspector or construction manager at end of each day. Our field
services will be mobilized from our nearby Irvine office.
Special inspectors will be initially scheduled through our Project Manager Mr. Olenik, with
subsequent needs for the same project scheduled directly through our dispatcher. He will
assign a "Lead Inspector" for each site based on the scope of work and construction
methods. Each Lead Inspector will be a multi - disciplined, experienced inspector, qualified
to handle all of the duties of inspection. This will help the City with cost containment, and
provides one constant, familiar person to respond to questions as they arise. Based on
construction methods and schedule, additional qualified and experienced inspectors can be
called in to help when needed and will be able to work together as one team.

Soil and material (i.e. concrete, and rebar) samples will be tested under strict quality control
to meet the specifications of the contract documents.
Reports of as- graded or compaction and materials testing indicating general compliance
with the project plans, specification and geotechnica) recommendations will be provided as
required. End of project deliverables will be mutually understood as outlined in our
estimated cost proposal prior to construction. As- graded and compaction reports are
prepared and coordinated by the Task Manager, while materials testing and deputy
inspection reports will be prepared and coordinated by Mr. Fakharpour, Teratest's Director
of Operations.
We understand the importance of the availability of Deputy Inspectors and Technicians
with the necessary certifications (i.e. City of Newport Beach, ICC and AG). Leighton has a
pool of 50 deputy inspectors that work for us almost every day, who can be dispatched to
your project site or for batch plant inspection.
Through our extensive inventory of equipment and the abilities of our cross - trained staff to
handle many types of samples and tests, we routinely accept large volumes of samples.
Our ability to load -level our tests between laboratories allows us to be responsive to our
client's needs when fast turn - around times are needed.
We appreciate the opportunity to submit this qualifications package and look forward to
continually working with you in the near future. To discuss our qualifications, please
contact me via phone at 949.253.5924, x 170.

CITY OF NEWPORT BEACH
CITY COUNCIL STAFF REPORT
Agenda Item No. 16
June 28, 2005
TO: HONORABLE MAYOR AND MEMBERS OF THE CITY COUNCIL
FROM: Public Works Department
Robert Gunther, P.E.
949 - 644 -3311
rgunther@city.newport-beach.ca.us
SUBJECT: GEOTECHNICAL, SURVEYING AND MAPPING, ARCHEOLOGICAL,
INSPECTION, AND ENVIRONMENTAL PLANNING /PERMITTING ON-
CALL SERVICES - APPROVAL OF PROFESSIONAL SERVICES
AGREEMENTS
RECOMMENDATIONS:
1. Approve Professional Services Agreements with Harrington Geotechnical and
Leighton and Associates for on -call geotechnical services and authorize the Mayor
and City Clerk to execute the Agreements.
2. Approve Professional Services Agreements with Coast Surveying, Advance Survey
Concepts, and Walden & Associates for on -call professional surveying and
mapping services and authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to execute the
Agreements.
3. Approve a Professional Services Agreement with LSA and Associates for on -call
archeological services and authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to execute the
Agreement.
4. Approve a Professional Services Agreement with Project Partners for on -call
supplemental public works inspection services and authorize the Mayor and City
Clerk to execute the Agreements.
5. Approve a Professional Services Agreement with J.H. Douglas & Associates for on-
call environmental planning and permitting assistance and authorize the Mayor and
City Clerk to execute the Agreements.
DISCUSSION:
Prior to the City Council meeting of November 26, 2002, geotechnical, survey,
archeological, and supplemental inspection services were regularly required for many
Capital Improvement Program (CIP) projects and a great number of small but time -
consuming Professional Services Agreements (PSA's) were executed between the City
SUBJECT: Geotechnical, Surveying And Mapping, Archeological, And Inspection On -Call Services - Approval Of Professional
Services Agreements
June 28, 2005
Page 2
and selected consultants to accomplish these on -going tasks. On November 26, 2002,
City Council approved the use of on -call PSA's with one soils firm and with three
surveying firms. Then on December 9, 2003, Council approved on -call PSA's for the
use of eight firms, (two soils, three survey, one archeological and two inspection firms).
These PSA's all expire on June 30, 2005.
Over the last few years, these on -call PSA's have proven to be very effective and
efficient. A request for qualifications was mailed to twelve firms to submit proposals
and eight firms responded. Staff now recommends executing new PSA's with these
eight firms as listed in the above recommendations, that is - two geotechnical firms,
three surveying and mapping firms, one archeological firm, one supplemental public
works inspection firm, and one environmental planning /permitting firm. To reduce time
in preparing individual PSA's for each CIP project, staff is recommending negotiating
with these select consultants to provide "as needed" services. Any other firms that may
be used would have individual PSA's prepared for their work and if greater than
$30,000 they would be brought to City Council for approval per Council Policy F -14.
The City Council approved a Fiscal Year 2005/06 Citywide CIP, which totals over
$30,000,000. More than 100 projects within the CIP will require some sort of
geotechnical and survey services as well as occasional archeological, supplemental
public works inspection services, or environmental permitting service. These services
are funded for from the individual project budgets.
On -Call Geotechnical Firms
Harrington Geotechnical and Leighton and Associates have performed geotechnical
services for more than 20 projects for the City over the past two years. The fee for their
services is typically under $5,000 to perform either soil and base compaction or asphalt
testing for a particular project. The firms have provided quality services to the City in
the past.
On -Call Surveying and Mappinq Firms:
Similar on -call Professional Services PSA's are recommended for surveying and
mapping services. The three recommended firms provide unique specialized services
that can be tailored to the City's individual projects, and have provided the City with
excellent services on previous projects. The City currently employs only one licensed
surveyor who utilizes other City staff to complete survey requests. The City Surveyor is
also involved with mapping, GIS coordination, and parcel map reviews, as well as other
duties. With the renewal of the on -call survey services PSA's many of these services
will be contracted with one of the above survey companies.
On -Call Archeological Services:
Archeological inspection and reports are required on a number of projects involving
excavation, particularly on projects in coordination with Caltrans. LSA has provided
timely inspections and reports on previous projects with the City.
SUBJECT: Geotechnical, Surveying And Mapping, Archeological, And Inspection On -Call Services - Approval Of Professional
Services Agreements
June 28, 2005
Page 3
On -Call Supplemental Public Works Inspection Firms:
Over the last four years staff has had to use two supplemental inspectors due to the
heavy project loads on our three full -time staff inspectors. Project Partners has
provided inspection services to the City for four years. Although the City's proposed
new budget includes an additional staff Inspector, it will take some time to hire the new
inspector and occasional use of a contract inspector may still be required.
On -Call Environmental Planning and Permitting Service:
Environmental permitting and planning assistance are often required in conjunction with
the CIP because the City must comply with land use and environmental laws such as
CEQA, and may be required to obtain permits from other public agencies. J.H. Douglas
& Associates has provided timely services and assistance on previous projects with the
City.
Standard On -Call Professional Services Agreement:
Attached is the standard PSA that was recently updated by the City Attorney's Office.
The On -Call PSA with the geotechnical, survey, archeological, inspection, and
environmental services firms is identical to the new standardized PSA's with the
exception of Section 2 (Services to be Provided) and Section 4 (Compensation to the
Consultant). These sections have been drafted to allow the consultant to provide
services for multiple projects. The proposed On -Call PSA's would be effective through
June 30, 2007.
Funding Availability:
Funds for these services are available in each of the specific project accounts within the
City Council approved Capital Improvement Programs.
Environmental Review:
Environmental clearances will be completed for each Capital Improvement Project.

949 - 644 -3311
rgunther@city.newport-beach.ca.us
SUBJECT: GEOTECHNICAL, SURVEYING AND MAPPING, ARCHEOLOGICAL,
AND INSPECTION ON -CALL SERVICES - APPROVAL OF
PROFESSIONAL SERVICES AGREEMENTS
RECOMMENDATIONS:
Approve Professional Services Agreements with Harrington Geotechnical and
Leighton and Associates for on -call geotechnical services and authorize the Mayor
and City Clerk to execute the Agreements.
2. Approve Professional Services Agreements with Coast Surveying, Duca- McCoy,
and Advanced Survey Services for on -call professional surveying and mapping
services and authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to execute the Agreements.
3. Approve a Professional Services Agreement with LSA and Associates for on -call
archeological services and authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to execute the
Agreement.
4. Approve a Professional Services Agreements with Project Partners and Hubell
Technical Services for on -call supplemental public works inspection services and
authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to execute the Agreements.
DISCUSSION:
Prior to the Council meeting of November 26, 2002, geotechnical, survey, archeological
and supplemental inspection services were regularly required for many projects and a
great number of small but time - consuming Professional Services Agreements (PSA's)
were executed between the City and selected consultants to accomplish these on -going
tasks.
On November 26, 2002, Council approved the use of on -call PSA's with one soils firm

tremendous efficiencies of using the on -call PSA's, staff now recommends executing

new agreements with an expanded list of firms as listed in the Recommendations
Section above, that is - two geotechnical firms, three surveying and mapping firms, one
archeological firm, and two supplemental public works inspection firms. To reduce time
in preparing individual agreements for each CIP project, staff is recommending
negotiating with these select consultants to provide "as needed" services. Any other
firms that may be used would have individual agreements prepared for their work and if
greater than $30,000 they would be brought to Council for approval.
The City Council approved a Fiscal Year 2003/04 City Wide Capital Improvement
Program (CIP), which totals over $33,000,000. More than 100 projects within the CIP
will require some sort of geotechnical and survey services as well as occasional
archeological or supplemental public works inspection services. These services are
paid for from the individual project budgets.
On -Call Geotechnical Firms:
Harrington Geotechnical and Leighton and Associates have performed geotechnical
services for more than 20 projects for the City over the past two years. The fee for their
services is typically under $5,000 to perform either soil and base compaction or asphalt
testing for a particular project. The firms have provided quality services to the City in
the past.
On -Call Surveying and Mapping Firms:
Similar on -call Professional Services Agreements are recommended for surveying and
mapping services. All three recommended firms provide unique specialized services
that can be tailored to the City's individual projects, and have provided the City with
excellent services on previous projects. The City currently employs only one licensed
surveyor who utilizes other City staff to complete his survey.party. In house City survey
is only done for selected projects with critical schedules and limited scope of work. The
City surveyor is also involved with mapping, GIS coordination, and parcel map reviews,
as well as other duties. With the renewal of the On -Call Survey Services Agreements,
many of these services will be contracted with one of the above survey companies.
On -Call Archeological Services:
Archeological inspection and reports are required on a number of projects involving
excavation, most recently on the Newport Boulevard - Balboa Boulevard Rehabilitation
project and most projects in coordination with Caltrans. LSA has provided timely
inspections and reports on previous projects with the City.
On -Call Supplemental Public Works Inspection Firms:
Over the last two years staff has had to use two supplemental inspectors due to the
heavy project loads on our three full -time staff inspectors. Both inspection firms
proposed are recommended and Project Partners has provided inspection services to
the City in the last year.

Standard On -Call Professional Services Agreement:
This is the standard agreement form that was recently updated by the City Attorney's
Office. The On -Call PSA with the geotechnical, survey, archeological and inspection
services firms is identical to the new standardized Professional Services Agreements
with the exception of Section 2 (Services to be Provided) and Section 4 (Compensation
to the Consultant). These sections have been drafted to allow the consultant to provide
services for multiple projects. Note - any services requiring expenditures more than
$30,000 for an individual project will require a separate City Council action in
accordance with Policy F -14. The proposed On -Call PSA attached to this item, would
be effective through June 30, 2005.
Fundina Availability:
Funds for these services are available in each the specific project accounts within the
City Council approved Capital Improvement Programs.
