MANIS, CITY MANAGER. DATE: AUGUST 23, 2016 SUBJECT: ASSIGNMENT OF ENVIRONMENTAL CONSULTING SERVICES CONTRACT TO MIG, INC. (MIG) FOR A NEW 21 -UNIT PLANNED DEVELOPMENT SUMMARY The City has received entitlement applications from Orange Rosemead Investors, LLC (developer) requesting to develop a new 21 -unit residential development with an attached two -car garage for each dwelling unit and guest parking on the proposed private streets. Each residential unit will range in size from 1,750 square feet to 2,200 square feet. The subject site is currently located at 1151 San Gabriel Boulevard in the P -D (Planned Development) zone. On June 28, 2016, the Community Development Department issued a Request for Proposal (RFP) to seek a qualified environmental consultant to assist with the preparation of required California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) studies. The cost to hire the consultant will be paid for in full by the developer. Staff Recommendation It is recommended that the City Council take the following actions: 1) Authorize the Mayor to execute a contract agreement with MIG to assist in the preparation of required CEQA studies; and REM NUMBER: City Council Report August 23, 2016 Paqe 2 of 2 2) Direct staff to obtain a deposit of $39,205 from the developer to cover the full cost for contract services prior to authorizing the environmental studies consultant to proceed. ANALYSIS The RFP for environmental planning services was mailed to five (5) qualified consulting firms and opened up to any interested party on the City's website. The RFP requested consultant services to prepare all of the appropriate CEQA documentation and studies. Five (5) firms submitted formal bid proposals: CASC Engineering and Consulting, MIG, Phil Martin & Associates, Inc., UltraSystems, and Willdan. A comparison of the costs and services provided by each firm is outlined in "Attachment D: Mitigated Negative Declaration Bid Comparison Chart'. After reviewing the proposals, staff narrowed the proposals down to two (2) consultants, Phil Martin & Associates, Inc. and MIG, and discussed this with the applicant. The applicant has submitted a letter to the City (attached as Attachment "E ") requesting the City to select MIG at a higher bid than Phil Martin & Associates, LLC. The applicant also acknowledges that additional costs may be added to the contract with MIG as additional studies may be required. For this reason, staff is in agreement with applicant to select MIG for this project. MIG is a multidisciplinary consulting firm that specializes in urban planning and design, multimodai transportation planning, public outreach, consensus building, communications and technology tools, and environmental review. The firm is familiar with Rosemead, as Hogle- Ireland (which merged with MIG) wrote the last two (2) General Plans for Rosemead. Most recently, MIG was selected by the City as the consulting firm working on the Garvey Avenue Specific Plan and Environmental Impact Report (EIR). Authorization of this contract will allow staff to manage the environmental review process without overextending existing resources while providing a comprehensive analysis to study the impacts that such a development would have on the surrounding neighborhoods. All associated studies will be completed prior to conducting the required public hearings before the Planning Commission and City Council. T r by: Submitted by: Lily T.

Page 11 of 23 EXHIBIT "A" SCOPE OF SERVICES MIG proposes the following work product to prepare the environmental document for the project. Work Proposal Initial Study Scope Phase 1: Technical Review and Project Description MIG will review the project plans and prepare all technical reports for the project. We will prepare a memorandum, if necessary, identifying any deficiencies or concerns related to the project data and its ability to support preparation of the Initial Study. The project description will concisely articulate the key features of the project, including: (1) regional and local setting; (2) project history; (3) project objectives; (4) project characteristics, and (5) intended uses of the Initial Study including a list of lead, responsible, and other agencies expected to use the document in decision making (if applicable) and a list of approvals for which the Initial Study will be used. A draft project description will be submitted for review and comment by City staff to ensure that the description presented throughout the Initial Study is properly representative of the proposed project and reflects the same understanding by all team members with regard to the environmental issues that will be screened from the further review or may require additional analysis. MIG will respond to one round of one consolidated set of comments on the project description. Any changes to the project description after approval by the City will likely require budget and schedule adjustments commensurate with the degree of changes to the project. Phase 2: Tec hnical Reports MIG will prepare technical reports for the project as commented on during the pre - application review of the project. Air Quality/Greenhouse Gas Assessment MIG will prepare an Air Quality and Climate Change Assessment to analyze the following (please see Attachment A for the Terms of Agreement for preparation of our air quality studies): • Consistency with the Air Quality Management Plan (AQMP) • Construction and demolition emissions • Comparison of existing conditions to proposed use • Long -tens emissions associated with project mobile, operational, and area sources • Carbon monoxide hotspots • Odors • Cumulative Impacts MIG, Inc. Page 12 of 23 Noise MIG will prepare a noise study that will include analysis of construction noise and vibration impacts on noise sensitive receptors in the project vicinity. Operational impacts related to increases in traffic will be analyzed. Mitigation will be identified to reduce noise impacts to less than significant levels, where possible and necessary. Cultural Resources MIG will conduct a Cultural and Paleontological Resources Records search, a Sacred Lands File and Follow -up Native American Consultation, a Pedestrian Field Survey and will also prepare a Phase I Cultural Resources Technical Report to determine if the presence of any cultural resources have been identified in the project vicinity (see Attachment B for a detailed scope of work). Traffic The traffic impact analysis by Kunzman Associates will consist of preparing an objective report suitable for submission to the reviewing agency. The report will be prepared in accordance with accepted professional transportation engineering standards. The final illustrated report will summarize the traffic impact analysis findings, methodology, and supportive data. It will quantify existing traffic conditions, traffic conditions upon project completion, and recommend mitigation measures. Specifically, the focused traffic analysis will consist of (1) discussing the proposed development with the applicant; (2) submitting a scoping agreement/memorandum of understanding, including assumptions and methodology, for governmental agency approval; (3) conducting a study area field survey of intersection traffic control devices, intersection approach lanes, and roadway link through travel lanes; (4) documenting existing traffic conditions; (5) obtaining weekday moming /evening peak period turning movement counts at the study area intersections; (6) determining project trip generation based upon the Institute of Transportation Engineers, Trip Generation Manual, 9th Edition, 2012; (7) distributing the project trip generation to the street system; (8) determining the project's traffic impacts; (9) analyzing study area intersection Levels of Service; (10) examining internal circulation including emergency vehicle access; (11) mitigating the impacts, if necessary; and (12) preparing a written letter -report that is stamped and signed by a Registered Engineer in the State of California. The focused traffic analysis will include calculation of intersection delay utilizing the Highway Capacity Manual methodology at up to two (2) study area intersections during the peak hours for existing conditions as well as with the proposed project. Ph ase 3: Initial Study This phase includes preparation of an Initial Study to determine if an EIR or an MND will be the appropriate environmental clearance documentation for the project pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). We assume that at a minimum a site plan, elevations, and estimates on importlexport of soil will be provided by the City. Other submittal requirements requested by the City will also be forwarded to MIG for inclusion in the environmental analysis. It is further assumed that sufficient information concerning the local water, sewer, and storm drainage systems and local public services will be provided by City Staff in response to our inquiries. MIG, Inc. Page 13 of 23 MIG will coordinate with the City to refine and confirm the project description. We will then prepare a fully annotated Initial Study checklist, with explanatory responses to the 80+ questions, sufficient to analyze the environmental effects of the project. Electronic copies of the completed Initial Study will be submitted for review and comment by the City. Please note that any changes to the project after completion of the project description could require schedule and budget adjustments to incorporate the changes into the Initial Study. The budget assumes that MIG will respond to one round of City comments on the administrative draft Initial Study before finalizing the draft for public review and comment. Preparation of the Initial Study is subject to the Terms of Agreement. Mitigated Negative Declaration Scope Phase 3A: Draft Mitigated Negative Declaration If the Initial Study supports adoption of a Mitigated Negative Declaration (MND), MIG will package the Initial Study for circulation as an MND including any special MND forms that the City of Rosemead may require. If no specialty forms are required, then Section 2 (Environmental Determination) of the Initial Study will serve as the MND for the project. We will have the Environmental Determination signed by the City for inclusion in the Initial Study. This phase includes completion of the Mandatory Findings of Significance consistent with the adoption of the MND. Phase 3B: Notice of Intent MIG will prepare a Notice of Intent to Adopt a Mitigated Negative Declaration (NOI) for public circulation to request comments on the Initial Study. We will complete the standard NOI form or use a preferred template from the City. This phase includes circulation of the Initial Study and MND for public review. We will mail an electronic copy of the Initial Study and MND to up to 50 agency recipients or other entities included on the City of Rosemead's standard environmental distribution list. If the City requires circulation to surrounding properties, we will mail a notice to properties within the required distance of the project site. We anticipate a 30 -day review period will be required and will thus send the document to the State Clearinghouse. We assume that the City will post the NOI at City Hall and in the local newspaper (if required) in accordance with their own policies for CEQA implementation. Phase 3C: Response to Comments At the conclusion of the public review and comment period, MIG will prepare written responses to comments concerning the adequacy of the environmental impact analysis, if necessary and requested by the City. Individual responses would be at the discretion of the City as they are not required by CEQA. If minor revisions, corrections, or clarifications to the Initial Study are warranted, we will make those changes and compile a final Initial Study for adoption by the City decision - makers. MIG will also prepare a Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program, pursuant to Section 15097 of the CEQA Guidelines. Phase 3D: Hearings MIG will attend meetings and hearings as requested by the City, at cost of time and materials. This task will also include periodic coordination with the City Staff, including MIG, Inc. Page 14 of 23 conference calls. For budgeting purposes, this proposal assumes a MIG team memberwill attend one City of Rosemead Planning Commission and /or City Council meeting leading to project approval. Phase 3E: Notice of D Within five days of approval of the project, MIG will prepare and file the Notice of Determination (NOD) with the County, provided the City of Rosemead permits us to do so. Phase 4: Environmental Impact Report Environmental Impact Report Scope Phase 4A: Notice of Preparation If the results of the Initial Study identify the need for an EIR, or if the City requires preparation of an EIR in light of controversy, MIG will prepare a Notice of Preparation of a Draft Environmental Impact Report (NOP) in accordance with Section 15082 of the State CEQA Guidelines to announce the City's determination that an EIR will be prepared and to request comments concerning the scope of issues to be addressed in the EIR. The primary purpose of an NOP is to solicit comments from other governmental entities that may have jurisdiction and /or interest involving the environmental resources that may be affected by the project in order to define their area of authority, issues of concern, and to suggest approaches to avoid or reduce the potentially adverse effects of the proposed project. The NOP also provides an opportunity to involve special interest groups, local residents and businesses, and the community at large in the scoping process. MIG will produce and distribute printed and electronic copies of the NOP in accordance with a distribution list to be developed in consultation with the City. Distribution of the NOP will initiate a 30-day review and comment period. MIG will address all relevant comments related to potential environmental impacts raised through the NOP in the EIR. This phase does not include hosting of a scoping meeting; however, MIG can host such a meeting at the City's request and with Client approval at cost of time and materials. Phase 413: Draft EIR A project -level EIR will be prepared with an anticipated focus on impacts involving aesthetics, air quality, biological resources, cultural resources, greenhouse gases, hazards and hazardous materials, hydrology and water quality, land use and planning, noise, transportation and traffic, and utilities and service systems. This task consists of preparation, production, submittal, review and comment by City Staff, and document revisions for the Administrative Draft EIR. MIG will address one round of comments from the City. Immediately following City Staff review and comment on the Administrative Draft EIR, MIG will prepare the Draft EIR (DEIR). Phase 4C: Notice of Availability MIG will prepare a Notice of Completion (NOC) for submittal to the State Clearinghouse and will prepare a Notice of Availability (NOA) to be transmitted to other government and quasi - governmental agencies, special interest groups, and interested persons that have MIG, Inc. Page 15 of 23 requested notification of environmental documents prepared for projects under City review. This proposal assumes the City will publish the NOA in a local newspaper of general circulation and post it at the usual locations where planning actions are announced to the public. Circulation of the DEIR will initiate a mandatory 45-day public review period. Phase 4D: Final EIR A Final EIR (FEIR) will be prepared pursuant to Section 15132 of CEQA Guidelines. The main purpose of a Final EIR (FEIR) is to present comments received on the adequacy of the DEIR and the City's written responses to those comments. The FEIR would also include an erratum to address corrections and clarifications to the DEIR and a Mitigation Monitoring Reporting Program (MMRP), as detailed below. MIG will provide up to 15 printed copies of the FEIR for distribution to the City Board of Directors. Any additional copies can be provided at cost of labor and materials. This proposal assumes the County will prepare and file the Notice of Determination (NOD) with the appropriate fees. Phase 4E : Hearings MIG will attend meetings and hearings as requested by the City. For budgeting purposes, this proposal assumes attendance at the following milestone meetings and hearings: • Project Initiation: A project "kick -off" meeting to discuss the project description and scheduling objectives, and receive required materials. MIG will also visit the project site and take photos to include in the EIR. • Two meetings with City staff to address specific issues of concern as the EIR is being prepared • Responses to Comments: Meet with staff to discuss public comments concerning the DEIR and devise a strategy for responses. • Public Hearings: MIG's project manager and /or primary analyst will attend three public hearings leading to certification of the Final EIR assumed to include one City Board of Directors meeting. Attendance at additional meetings or hearings is not covered by this task budget; therefore, this would require City authorization and payment of additional fees for the non - budgeted staff time and travel expenses involved. Phase 4F: Notice Determin Within five days of approval of the project, MIG will prepare and file the Notice of Determination (NOD) with the County, provided the City permits us to do so. MIG, Inc. Page 16 of 23 EXHIBIT "B" Schedule SCHEDULE OF SERVICES Based on the proposed scope of work, we anticipate the technical studies and Initial Study will be completed in eight to ten weeks from authorization to proceed. We will complete the administrative draft of the Initial Study within two weeks of completion of the traffic study. Depending on the level of environmental clearance required by the City, preparation and adoption of an MND will take approximately two to three months including mandatory public review and City review cycles. If an EIR is required, it could take between six months to a year to complete the process including mandatory 105 -day (NOP) and 45 -day review (DEIR) periods, the City review and potential third party review, and hearings. MIG, Inc. Page 17 of 23 EXHIBIT "C" COMPENSATION Mitigated Negative Declaration Budget The base cost to prepare the technical reports and Initial Study as required by the City is estimated to cost $34,155. Upon agreement and /or determination by the City of Rosemead as to the type of environmental clearance necessary for the project, we have provided budget estimates below based on their decision. The cost to prepare a Mitigation Negative Declaration (MND) is estimated at $5,050 for a total of $39,205.

Consultant and City agree to the following with respect to insurance provided by Consultant: 1. Consultant agrees to have its insurer endorse the third party general liability coverage required herein to include as additional insureds City, its officials, employees and agents, using standard ISO endorsement No. CG 2010 with an edition prior to 1992. Consultant also agrees to require all contractors, and subcontractors to do likewise. 2. No liability insurance coverage provided to comply with this Agreement shall prohibit Consultant, or Consultant's employees, or agents, from waiving the right of subrogation prior to a loss. Consultant agrees to waive subrogation rights against City regardless of the applicability of any insurance proceeds, and to require all contractors and subcontractors to do likewise. 3. All insurance coverage and limits provided by Contractor and available or applicable to this agreement are intended to apply to the full extent of the policies. Nothing contained in this Agreement or any other agreement relating to the City or its operations limits the application of such insurance coverage. 4. None of the coverages required herein will be in compliance with these requirements if they include any limiting endorsement of any kind that has not been first submitted to City and approved of in writing. 5. No liability policy shall contain any provision or definition that would serve to eliminate so- called "third party action over" claims, including any exclusion for bodily injury to an employee of the insured or of any contractor or subcontractor. 6. All coverage types and limits required are subject to approval, modification and additional requirements by the City, as the need arises. Consultant shall not make any reductions in scope of coverage (e.g. elimination of contractual liability or reduction of discovery period) that may affect City's protection without City's prior written consent. 7. Proof of compliance with these insurance requirements, consisting of certificates of insurance evidencing all of the coverages required and an additional insured endorsement to Consultant's general liability policy, shall be delivered to City at or prior to the execution of this Agreement. In the event such proof of any insurance is MIG, Inc. Page 21 of 23 not delivered as required, or in the event such insurance is canceled at any time and no replacement coverage is provided, City has the right, but not the duty, to obtain any insurance it deems necessary to protect its interests under this or any other agreement and to pay the premium. Any premium so paid by City shall be charged to and promptly paid by Consultant or deducted from sums due Consultant, at City option. 8. Certificate(s) are to reflect that the insurer will provide 30 days notice to City of any cancellation of coverage. Consultant agrees to require its insurer to modify such certificates to delete any exculpatory wording stating that failure of the insurer to mail written notice of cancellation imposes no obligation, or that any party will "endeavor" (as opposed to being required) to comply with the requirements of the certificate. 9. It is acknowledged by the parties of this agreement that all insurance coverage required to be provided by Consultant or any subcontractor, is intended to apply first and on a primary, noncontributing basis in relation to any other insurance or self insurance available to City. 10. Consultant agrees to ensure that subcontractors, and any other party involved with the project who is brought onto or involved in the project by Consultant, provide the same minimum insurance coverage required of Consultant. Consultant agrees to monitor and review all such coverage and assumes all responsibility for ensuring that such coverage is provided in conformity with the requirements of this section. Consultant agrees that upon request, all agreements with subcontractors and others engaged in the project will be submitted to City for review. 11. Consultant agrees not to self- insure or to use any self- insured retentions or deductibles on any portion of the insurance required herein and further agrees that it will not allow any contractor, subcontractor, Architect, Engineer or other entity or person in any way involved in the performance of work on the project contemplated by this agreement to self- insure its obligations to City. If Consultant's existing coverage includes a deductible or self - insured retention, the deductible or self - insured retention must be declared to the City. At that time the City shall review options with the Consultant, which may include reduction or elimination of the deductible or selfinsured retention, substitution of other coverage, or other solutions. 12. The City reserves the right at any time during the term of the contractto change the amounts and types of insurance required by giving the Consultant ninety (90) days advance written notice of such change.

MIG, Inc. Page 22 of 23 14. Consultant acknowledges and agrees that any actual or alleged failure on the part of City to inform Consultant of non -compliance with any insurance requirement in no way imposes any additional obligations on City nor does it waive any rights hereunder in this or any other regard. 15.Consultant will renew the required coverage annually as long as City, or its employees or agents face an exposure from operations of any type pursuant to this agreement. This obligation applies whether or not the agreement is canceled or terminated for any reason. Termination of this obligation is not effective until City executes a written statement to that effect. 16. Consultant shall provide proof that policies of insurance required herein expiring during the term of this Agreement have been renewed or replaced with other policies providing at least the same coverage.

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 limiting or all-inclusive- 19. These insurance requirements are intended to be separate and distinct from any other provision in this agreement and are intended by the parties here to be interpreted as such. 20.The requirements in this Section supersede all other sections and provisions of this Agreement to the extent that any other section or provision conflicts with or impairs the provisions of this Section. 21. Consultant agrees to be responsible for ensuring that no contract used by any party involved in any way with the project reserves the right to charge City or Consultant for the cost of additional insurance coverage required by this agreement. Any such provisions are to be deleted with reference to City. It is not the intent of City to reimburse any third party for the cost of complying with these requirements. There shall be no recourse against City for payment of premiums or other amounts with respect thereto. MIG, Inc. Page 23 of 23 22. Consultant agrees to provide immediate notice to City of any claim or loss against Consultant arising out of the work performed under this agreement. 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. �i: .

A budget for preparation of an Environmental Impact Report (EM) has also been included in the unlikely event the City of Rosemead detennines that an FIR will be required for the project. The budget of $39,205 presented herein includes preparation of draft and final technical reports and an Initial Study, as well as administrative draft, public review, and final versions of the MND. We will work closely with the City to ensure a thorough and efficient environmental review process. We assume that base maps, information on existing conditions, specific project characteristics, technical studies, and other pertinent information that has yet to be provided will be forwarded to us as it becomes available. If needed, the proposed scope for an E.IR can be completed for an estimated budget of $79,155. The proposed project Will be billed on a time and materials basis. Payments are due and payable to MIG within thirty days of invoice. MIG is very familiar with the City of Rosemead. In 2008, MIG (as MIGj Hogle-Ireland) prepared a comprehensive Program EIR to evaluate the long -term and cumulative effects of implementing the Rosemead General Plan. The focus of our approach was to coordinate the analysis with the goals of the proposed Genael Plan to ensure that policies were integrated to make each element "self-mitigating," thus minimizin theneed for mitigation measures in the EIR and reduced long -term monitoring requirements on the City. Additionally, MUG reviewed and required revisions to the project air quality study in order to adequately support the CEQA documentation.

Phase 3: Initial Study This phase includes preparation of an Initial Study to determine if an EIR or an MND will be the appropriate environmental clearance documentation for the project pursuant m the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). We assume that at a minimum a site plan, elevations, and estimates on import /export of soil will be provided by the City. Other submittal requirements requested by the City will also be forwarded to MIG for inclusion in the environmental analysis. It is further assumed that sufficient information concerning the local water, sewer, and storm dra systems and local public services will he provided by City Staff in response to our inquiries. MIG will coordinate with the City to refine and confirm the project description. We will then prepare a fully annotated hutial Study checklist, with explanatory responses to the 80+ questions, sufficient to analyze the environmental effects of the project Electronic copies of the completed Initial Study will be submitted for review and comment by the City. Please note that any changes to the project after completion of the project description could require schedule and budget adjustments to incorporate the changes into the Initial Study. 21 -Unit Residential Development 3uh/ 19, 2016 Initial Study and MND /EIR Proposal The budget assumes that MIG will respond to one round of City comments on the administrative draft Initial Study before finalizing the draft for public review and comment Preparation of the Initial Study is subject to the Terms of Agreement included as Attachment C. Mitigated Negative Declaration Scope Phase 3A: Draft Mitigated Negative Declaration If the Initial Study supports adoption of a Mitigated Negative Declaration (MIdD), MUG will package the Initial Study for circulation as an MND including any special MND forms that the City of Rosemead may require. If no specialty forms are required, then Section 2 (Environmental Detem ination) of the Initial Study will serve as the MND for the project We will have the Environmental Determination signed by the City for inclusion in the Initial Study. This phase includes completion of the Mandatory Findings of Significance consistent with the adoption of the MND. Phase 3B: Notice of Intent MIG will prepare a Notice of Intent to Adopt a Mitigated Negative Declaration (NOI) for public circulation to request comments on the Initial Study. We will complete the standard NOI form or use a preferred template from the City. This phase includes circulation of the Initial Study and MND for public review. We will mail an electronic copy of the Initial Study and MND to up to 50 agency recipients or other entities included on the City of Rose runes standard environmental distribution list. If the City requires circulation to surrounding properties, we will mail a notice to properties within the required distance of the project sire. We anticipate a 30-day review period will be required and will thus send the document to the State Clearinghouse. We assume that the City will post the NOI at City Hall and in the local newspaper (if required) in accordance with their own policies for CEQA implementation Phase 3C: Response to Comments At the conclusion of the public review and comment period, MG will prepare u %trm responses to comments concerning die adequacy of the environmental impact analysis, if necessary and requested by the City. Individual responses "old be at the discretion of the City as they are not required by CEQA. If minor revisions, corrections, or clarifications in the Initial Study are warranted, we will make those change and compile a final Initial Study for adoption by the Cry decision- makers. MIG will also prepare a Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program, pursuant to Section 15097 of the CEQA Guidelines. Phase 31): Hearings MIG will attend meetings and hearings as requested by the City, at rest of time and materials. This task will also include periodic coordination with the City Staff; including conference calls. For budgeting purposes, this proposal assumes a MIG team member will attend one City of Rosemead Planning Commission and /or City Council meeting leading to project approval. Determination Within five days of approval of the project, AEG wig prepare and file the Notice of Determination (NOD) with the County, provided the City of Rosemead permits us to do so. Phase 4: Environmental Impact Report _ Environmental Impact Report Scope Phase 4A: Notice of Preparation If the results of the Initial Study identify the need for an EIR, or if the City requires preparation of m EIR in light of controversy, MIG will prepare a Notice of Preparation of Draft Environmental Impact Report (N OF) in accordance with Section 15082 of the Stare CEQA Guidelines to announce the City's determination that an 21 -Unit Residential Development July 19, 2016 Initial Study and MND /ER Proposal EIR will be prepared and to request comments concerning the scope of issues to be addressed in the EIR. The primary purpose of an NOP is to solicit comments from other governmental entities that may have jurisdiction and /or interest moving the environmental resources that may be affected by the project in order to define their area of authority, issues of concern, and to suggest approaches to avoid or reduce the potentially adverse effects of the proposed project The NOP also provides an opportunity to involve special interest groups, local residents and businesses, and the community at large in the scoping process. AUG will produce and distribute printed and electronic copies of the NOP in accordance with a distribution list to he developed in consultation with the City. Distribution of the NOP will initiate a 30 -day review and comment period. bfIG will address all relevant comments related to potential environmental impacts raised through the NOP in the EIR This phase does not include hosting of a seeping meeting; however, MIG can host such a meeting at the Cites request and with Client approval at cost of time and materials. Phase 4B: Draft EIR A project -level EIR will be prepared with an anticipated focus on impacts invoking aesthetics, air quality, biological resources, cultural resources, greenhouse gases, hazards and hazardous materials, hydrology and water quality, land use and p lanning, noise, transportation and turffic, and utilities and service systems. This task consists of preparation, production, submittal, review and comment by City Staff, and document revisions for the Administrative Draft EIR MIG will address one round of comments from the Cry. Immediately following City Staff review and comment on the Admicustretive Draft EIR, MIG will prepare the Draft EIR (DEIR). Phase 4C: Notice of Availability MUG will prepare a Notice of Completion (NOC) for submittal to the State Clearinghouse and will prepare a Notice of Availability (NOA) to be transmitted to other government and quasi - governmental agencies, special interest groups, and interested persons that have requested notification of environmental documents prepared for projects under City review. This proposal assumes the City will publish the NOA in a local newspaper of general circulation and post it at the usual locations where planning actions are announced to the public Circulation of the DEIR will initiate a mandatory 45-d2y public review period. Phase 41): Final ER A Final EIR (FEIR) will be prepared putsuant to Section 15132 of CEQA Guidelines. The main purpose of a Final EIR (FEUR) is to present comments received on the adequacy of the DEIR and the City's written responses to those comments. The FEIR would also include an erratum to address corrections and clarifications to the DEIR and a Mitigation Monitoring Reporting Program (MMRP), as detailed below. MG will provide up to 15 printed copies of the FEIR for distribution to the City Board of Directors. Any additional copies can be provided at cost of labor and materials. This proposal assumes the Cowry will prepare and file the Notice of Determination (NOD) with the appropriate fees. MUG will attend meetings and hearings as requested by the City. For budgeting purposes, this proposal assumes attendance at the following milestone meetings and hearings: • Project Initiation: A project "kickoff' meeting to discuss the project description and scheduling objectives, and receive required materials. AUG will also visit the project site and take photos to include in the EIR • Two meetings with City staff to address specific issues of concern as the EIR is being prepared • Responses to Comments: Meet with staff to discuss public comments concerning the DEIR and devise a strategy for responses. • Public Hea MIG's project manager and /or primary analyst will attend three public hearings leading to certification of the Final EIR assumed to indude one City Board of Directors meeting. 21 -Unit Residential Development Initial Study and MND /FIR Proposal July 19, 2016 Attendance at additional meetings or hearings is not covered by this task budget; therefore, the would require City authorization and payment of additional fees for the non - budgeted staff time and travel expenses involved. Phase 4F: Notice of Determination Within five days of approval of the project, MIG will prepare and file the Notice of Determination (NOD) with the County, provided the City permits us to do so. Based on the pmposed scope of work, we anticipate the technical studies and Initial Study will be completed in eight to ten weeks from authorization to proceed We will complete the administrative draft of the Initial Study within two weeks of completion of the traffic study. Depending on the level of environmental deatauce required by the City, preparation and adoption of an MND will take approximately two to three months including mandatory public review and City review rydes. If an EIR is re it could take between six months to a year to complete the process including mandatory 105 - day (NOP) and 45-day review (DEIR) periods, the City review and potential third patty review, and beatings. 21 -Unit Residential Development Initial Study and MND /EIR Proposal July 19, 2016 Budget The base cost to prepare the technical reports and Initial Study as required by the City is estimated to cost $34,155. Upon agreement and /or determination by the City of Rosemead as to the type of environmental clearance necessary for the project, we have provided budget estimates below based on their decision. The cost to prepare a Mogation Negative Declaration (MND) is estimated at $5,050 for a total of $39,205.

The enclosed scope of work and corresponding budget and schedule do not account for review by legal counsel Our environmental documents and technical reports are prepared using our expertise and understanding of the letter and spirit of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and /or the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) rooted ur the principles of scientific research and discovery. Consideringthe interpretative nature of CEQA and varying ideologies and concerns related to the contents of CEQA environmental documents, widely differing opinions on what constitutes a defensible document is common among attorneys. If review by legal counsel is requested by the Clim;wewill request anincrease in the budget and extend the schedule to account for additional comments and potential meetings associated with the addition of attorney review. 2. Our technical reports are prepared in accordance with our knowledge and interpretation of the regulatory requirements and industry standards in place at the time authorization to proceed is issued. If regulatory requirements or industry standards change duangpreparation of the technical report, changes to our scope of work, schedule, and /or budget may be recommended or required to ensure the technical report meets the latest legal, professional, and /or ethical standards. 3. Should responses to more sets of comments from the Client and /or the local jurisdiction or responses to comments over additional rounds beyond those specified in the scope of work be requested, the schedule will likely be delayed in preparation of the technical report and will likely requite a budget increase to complete the additional work. 4. Second round comments are assumed to be in response to the adequacy of revisions made as a result of first round comments. No new comments will be addressed during the second round without authorization by the Client after consideration of potential cha to the scope of work, increase in budget, and /or delays in schedule 5. MIG is not responsible for delays in schedule or increases in budget caused by review by the local jurisdiction, sickness, stripe, boycott, equipment failure, communications delays, or Acts of God. 6. MIG is not responsible for any actual or perceived health impacts that may indirectly result from the preparation of our technical reports. Out modeling, analysis, and reporting is based on our expertise and knowledge of the modeling software, scientific methodologies, regulatory requirements, thresholds of significance, and industry knowledge utilized in the preparation of our technical reports. The physical effects of a project are projected and the resulting, potential impacts to the environment am assessed with mitigation applied as reasonable and feasible, pursuant to CEQA.
