BACKGROUND INFORMATION:
The Project was identified and approved by the voters in 2009 as part of Measure A and was
included in the 2009 Measure A 10-Year Western Riverside County Highway Delivery Plan. The
Project will improve mobility on SR-91 and SR-71 by enhancing operations and the capacity of
the 71/91 interchange by constructing a new, direct connector ramp from eastbound SR-91 to
northbound SR-71 and reconfiguring the eastbound SR-91 ramp between Green River Road and
the 71/91 interchange. The Project is also included in the SR-91 Implementation Plan adopted
by the Commission.
At its February 2012 meeting, the Commission awarded Agreement No. 11-31-110-00 to Parsons
to provide engineering services for the Project in the amount of $8,136,031, plus a contingency
of $804,537, for a total amount not to exceed $8,940,568. There have been 15 amendments to

The environmental document was prepared by Parsons under a separate contract and approved
in June 2011 and revalidated in November 2014. Subsequently, Parsons prepared the PS&E
package for the Project, which was conditionally approved by Caltrans in June 2015. Since that
time, the Commission has been acquiring right of way and relocating conflicting utilities required
for the Project in anticipation that construction funding would eventually become available.
On December 2, 2020, the California Transportation Commission approved Senate Bill 1 Trade
Enhancement Corridor Program funds for construction of this project.
Due to the length of time since approval of the latest environmental document revalidation, the
environmental document needs to be revalidated again, and the PS&E needs to be revised per
current Caltrans Highway Design Manual standards prior to construction. These tasks were
started over a year ago as full funding appeared more likely.
As the Project progressed, various out of scope items came up during the environmental and
engineering tasks. In order to keep the Project on schedule, staff issued a series of amendments
reallocating contract cost budgets from construction support services to cover these tasks with
the understanding that a future amendment would be needed to replenish the reallocated
2
Agenda Item 7
budgets as well as cover additional out of scope tasks (see Exhibits A and B). The changes to the
Project scope include:
• Updated topographic surveys along the west side of SR-71 where retaining walls are
proposed due to noticeable erosion;
• Supplemental Environmental Assessment (EA) required by U.S. Army Corps of Engineers
(USACE) due to the length of time elapsed from the approval of the original EA;
• Supplemental noise analysis including new noise measurements, a Supplemental Noise
Study Report, and a Supplemental Noise Abatement Decision Report required by Caltrans
due to a change in existing conditions (i.e., 91 Corridor Improvement Project construction
completion) from when the original analysis was performed;
• Revised right of way requirement maps due to the Commission’s ongoing negotiations
with property owners;
• Obtaining Caltrans approval to utilize 55-hour closures to construct and take down
falsework over SR-91 instead of utilizing repetitive night closures;
• Updating Traffic Management Plan to incorporate 55-hour closures and preparing detour
plans;
• Revised property owner driveway design and grading/drainage improvement adjacent to
driveway based on the Commission’s ongoing negotiations with the property owner;
• Updating the retaining wall designs due to new seismicity requirements from Caltrans;
• Adding a right turn pocket along Green River Road due to negotiations with the city of
Corona;
• Preparation of Chino Hills State Park Right-of-Entry Permit Application and
relinquishment of permit fee;
• Right of way support for eminent domain process;
• Revised USACE driveway design and addition of median barrier with sliding barrier for
emergency access;
• Preparation of Traffic Index Memo and revised pavement sections for Caltrans approval;
• Preparation of Landscape Fact Sheet to construct landscaping as part of overall Project;
• Preparation of Ramp Metering Exception to document no meters at connector ramps and
addition of Traffic Monitoring Station as part of the agreed to mitigation; and
• Revised electrical service point design adjacent and through Green River Properties per
the Commission’s on-going negotiations with the property owner.
Staff negotiated a scope of services and cost with Parsons for Amendment No. 16, which was
determined to be fair and reasonable, to complete the environmental document revalidation,
revise the PS&E, and provide bidding and construction phase support in the amount of
$1,293,547, for a total amount not to exceed to $14,167,025. This will enable the effort to finalize
the PS&E, bring the Project to a state of “Ready-To-List,” and prepare the construction contract
for advertisement.

SR 71/ SR91 PS&E – Scope of work Page 1
Date: 12-29-2020
SR 71/SR 91 Interchange Improvement Project
Scope of Work (Amendment #16)
Background:
The Riverside County Transportation Commission (RCTC), in cooperation with Caltrans, proposes to improve the
existing State Route 71 (SR-71)/State Route 91 (SR-91) interchange (Project) in the City of Corona, Riverside County.
The proposed improvements include constructing a new direct connector from eastbound (EB) SR-91 to northbound
(NB) SR-71 and reconfiguring the EB SR-91 ramp between Green River Road and the SR 71/91 interchange. The
proposed project is anticipated to improve mobility on SR-91 and SR-71 by enhancing operations and capacity at the
SR 71/91 interchange. The project limits extend from postmile (PM) R0.9 to PM R2.6 along SR-91 and PM 1.9 to PM
R3.0 along SR-71.
Final design for the project was completed in March 2015. The Final Structure Plans for three (3) bridges and eight (8)
nonstandard retaining walls were approved and signed by Caltrans. Additionally, Caltrans provided ‘Conditional
Approval’ on the 100% Plans, Specifications, and Estimate (PS&E) Package in March 2015. Due to a lack of funding,
the Project plans were shelved in March 2015.
In May 2018, RCTC approved Amendment No. 7 for the project for the purpose of ‘unshelving’ the project, updating
the PS&E to current standards, and obtaining final design approval. Amendment No. 7 included scope and fee for
Design Support During Construction and As-Built Drawing preparation. However, during the ‘unshelving’ process,
RCTC, Caltrans, and USACE requested several changes to the scope of work that resulted in ‘no cost change’
amendments to the contract in which budget from the future Construction Support and As-Built Drawing preparation
tasks were redistributed to cover the changes in scope required by the various agencies. Below is a summary of these
amendments that were approved by RCTC:
•Amendment No. 11; December 19, 2019 – transfer budget to perform updated survey along the existing
slopes along the west side of SR 71 due to noticeable erosion at the locations of proposed retaining walls.
•Amendment No. 12, June 26, 2020 – transfer budget to prepare Supplemental Environmental Assessment
required by USACE, Supplemental Noise Analysis required by Caltrans, Revised Right-of-Way Requirement
Maps requested by RCTC due to negotiations with property owners, and scope of work to obtain approval to
utilize 55-hour closures for falsework installation/takedown.
•Amendment No. 14, October 26, 2020 – transfer of budget to revise Sukut driveway design requested by
RCTC based on negotiations with property owner, revise Standard Type 1 Retaining Walls due to new
seismicity requirements as required by Caltrans, add right turn pocket along Green River Road requested by
RCTC in coordination with the City of Corona, and falsework design alternatives and E91-N71 Connector
column design analysis and workshops per RCTC’s request.
Additional Scope of Work Summary:
The additional scope of work in this Amendment No. 16 includes:
•Scope and fee to replenish the Design Support During Construction and As-Built Drawing preparation tasks
depleted by the above-mentioned amendments.
•Chino Hills State Park Right-of-Entry Permit Application and Coordination.
•Right-of-Way Support for Green River Properties Eminent Domain process.
•Revised USACE driveway design and addition of median barrier with sliding barrier for emergency access.
•Revised grading and drainage design adjacent to Sukut properties per RCTC’s negotiations with the property
owner.

SUBJECT:
Agreement with Stantec Consulting Services, Inc., for Preparation of the Final
Environmental Document, Preliminary Engineering, Plans, Specifications and
Estimates, and Construction Support Services Related to the Santa Ana River
Trail Project Phases 2, 2A and 3A in the Prado Basin
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
This item is for the Committee to:
1) Award Agreement No. 21-67-038-00 to Stantec Consulting Services, Inc. (Stantec) to
prepare a final California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) document; perform
preliminary engineering services; prepare plans, specifications, and estimates (PS&E); and
provide construction design support services for the construction of Phases 2, 2A and 3A
in the Prado Basin of the Santa Ana River Trail (SART 1) project (Project) in the amount of
$714,039, plus a contingency amount of $107,105 for potential changes in scope, for a
total amount not to exceed $821,144;
2) Authorize the Executive Director or designee to approve contingency work as may be
required for the Project;
3) Authorize the Chair or Executive Director, pursuant to legal counsel review, to finalize and
execute the agreement on behalf of the Commission; and
4) Forward to the Commision for final action.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION:
The concept for the overall Santa Ana River Trail from the San Bernardino Mountains to the
Pacific Ocean in Huntington Beach has been in development for many years. Much of the trail
has been built through Orange County with short segments remaining to be completed in
Riverside and San Bernardino Counties. The last remaining segment to be completed in Riverside
County is the segment from the Orange County line to the Hidden Valley Reserve in the cities of
Corona and Riverside.
In 2007, the Riverside County Regional Park and Open-Space District (Park District) was successful
in obtaining Proposition 84 Grant funds for the detailed alignment and construction of the section
18
Agenda Item 8
of trail from the Orange County line to the United States Army Corps of Engineers’ (USACE)
property in the Prado Dam basin.
In early 2015, the Park District requested the Commission to manage the delivery of the Project
between State Route 71 and the city of Eastvale. In March 2015, the Commission and Park
District entered into Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) No. 15-67-059-00, which
reimburses the Commission’s costs for providing project management services to complete the
design phase and procurement of construction services for the Park District’s Project.
Project Description
The proposed trail consists of a 10 feet-wide paved Class I bike path as well as a 10 feet-wide
decomposed granite equestrian and pedestrian trail for a total combined width of 20 feet.
From 2015 to 2019, staff worked with Park District’s design consultant to complete the design of
SART 1 and managed the consultant developing the environmental document for the Project
(Figure 1). In October 2019, the USACE provided extensive and significant comments on the SART
1 trail alignments. USACE noted that portions of the trail (Phases 1 and 2B) impacted recently
designated protected USACE mitigation land, and therefore the proposed alignment would not
be acceptable. Additionally, environmental studies determined that these two phases would
have significant impacts to waters of the United States, which would trigger extensive mitigation
requirements and a detailed alternatives analysis. Lastly, the USACE also rejected the placement
of the trail on top of the existing dikes due to changes in USACE policy.
These comments resulted in the need to revise the proposed trail alignments to avoid impacts to
the USACE mitigation land, relocate the trail off the USACE dikes, and identify ways to incorporate
the trail into planned USACE projects in the Prado Basin. This resulted in the revision of the
project phasing and placement of the trail on haul roads constructed for the USACE construction
projects. The revised SART 1 trail alignment phasing is briefly described below and shown in
Figure 2.
During this time period, the USACE commenced construction of its Alcoa Dike project, which
impacted the SART 1 Phase 2A and 4 alignments. The team was able to work with the USACE to
incorporate the SART 1 Phase 4 trail section into its project, which is scheduled to begin
construction in 2021.
Phase 1: Formerly Phase 1 and 2B, this phase will now be located on city streets. This phase will
be designed after the completion of the USACE construction projects in the Prado Basin, because
those projects need to be incorporated into the USACE construction packages. Phase 1 will be a
subject of a future Commission agenda item.
19
Agenda Item 8
Phase 2: This phase will connect Phase 1 (formerly Phase 1 and 2B) from Corydon Street to
Rincon Street in the city of Norco and to the Phase 4 section being built by USACE at the Alcoa
Dike. The trail will run parallel to Rincon Street and be placed adjacent to the edge of the street
pavement; this will require installation of a barrier to separate and protect the trail users from
the vehicular traffic.
Phase 2A: This phase will connect Phase 4 at Alcoa Dike to the future staging area (Phase 10) at
Auto Center Drive. The trail will use existing haul routes currently being utilized by USACE for the
construction of the Alcoa Phase II dike and will connect to the ends of the already constructed
SART trail at the sewer treatment plant.
Phase 3A: This phase connects the future staging area at Auto Center Drive to the trail near the
spillway. The proposed alignment will be located adjacent to the existing USACE maintenance
road at the base of the existing dike and cross over the dike and run at the base of the spillway.
The trail will be located within an area that the USACE proposes to use as a borrow pit for the
upcoming spillway project.
Phase 3: This route is pending an agreement between USACE and Park District/RCTC on how to
best cross the spillway channel. This will be a subject of a future Commission agenda item as it
will potentially require the design and construction of a bridge over the channel, which was not
anticipated in the original SART 1 design.
DISCUSSION:
Procurement Process for Final Environmental Document, Preliminary Engineering and PS&E
The Commission has identified portions of SART 1 (Phases 2, 2A and 3A) that can be constructed
as part of the USACE Emergency Spillway and Auxiliary Dike projects. These projects are currently
in final design and are scheduled to be advertised for construction in 2021 and 2022. Currently,
Stantec provides the design services for the SART 1 Phase 4 in conjunction with the
Butterfield/Rincon Street plans that are part of the USACE Alcoa Dike Phase II project.
At various meetings between the Commission, USACE and the Park District, an opportunity exists
to include the Phase 2, 2A and 3A trail onto the existing haul roads, adjacent to maintenance
roads, and within areas being used by USACE in its Emergency Spillway and Auxiliary Dike
projects. USACE, through its consultant, Stantec, is finalizing the environmental documents to
clear the areas and agreed to include the description of the trail in its environmental document.
USACE has agreed to develop the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) environmental
document for SART 1 Phase 2, 2A, and 3A. This should expedite the environmental process due
to USACE having all the existing studies and data from its projects in the Prado Basin. USACE
plans to commence this work in early 2021, and this will require an expedited design of the trail.
20
Agenda Item 8
The Commission proposes to procure the CEQA environmental and design services directly from
Stantec on a sole source basis, based on its existing project experience with the USACE and its
ability to expedite the design to meet the USACE project delivery schedules for inclusion of the
trail into the USACE projects. Stantec is the designer for the USACE’s Alcoa Dike project and is
experienced in the USACE requirements, standards, review process, and has the existing
electronic files and data to expedite the incorporation of the trail design into the USACE
construction bid packages. Stantec would provide preliminary engineering services to identify
the footprint for the trail, as well as prepare any necessary CEQA documentation to supplement
the USACE NEPA environmental document.
In addition to Stantec’s extensive USACE experience, it is uniquely positioned to quickly provide
the design required as it is the designer of record for the Phase 4 portion of SART at the Alcoa
Dike Phase II project and is deeply familiar with the proposal to prepare Phases 2, 2A and 3A into
its design plans, as it provided some preliminary work on Phase 2A. Stantec has knowledge of
the SART environmental and design requirements, standards, specifications, and it can obtain
the necessary approval of the design from the USACE within the time allotted.
The Phase 2, 2A and 3A designs must be completed and incorporated into the Emergency
Spillway and Auxiliary Dike projects design by June 2021 for review by the USACE. If the designs
are not included by that date, then they will not be included in the construction package for the
Emergency Spillway project. Stantec’s position as the designer of record for Phase 4 at Alcoa
Dike Phase II ensures that the design can be delivered within this tight schedule. Staff has also
discussed the acceleration of the design approval process with USACE and the limitation of the
number of submissions to ensure the design will meet USACE’s construction advertisement
schedule. This was a successful approach for Phase 4.
The Park District provided direction to the Commission to procure a sole-source contract with
Stantec. Per Amendment No. 2 to the MOU between the Commission and the Park District that
was executed in January 2018, the Commission is authorized to procure and manage all future
consultant contracts related to completion of the SART in Riverside County.
Staff negotiated the scope of work (including the appropriate level of effort, labor categories/mix,
etc.), cost, and schedule proposal received from Stantec for the Project services and established
a fair and reasonable price. The proposed cost, including contingency, is $821,144.
Staff reviewed the proposed costs with the Park District, and it concurs with the
recommendations included in this staff report.
Staff recommends award of Agreement No. 21-67-038-00 to Stantec to perform preliminary
engineering, environmental services, PS&E, and construction support services for the Project,
based on the final negotiated project scope and cost of $714,039, plus the contingency amount
of $107,105, for a total amount not to exceed $821,144. Additionally, staff recommends
authority for the Chair or Executive Director to execute the agreement on behalf of the
21
Agenda Item 8
Commission, pursuant to legal counsel review, and for the Executive Director or designee to
approve contingency work as may be required for the Project.
FISCAL IMPACT:
Costs for Commission project management; preliminary engineering, environmental document,
PS&E, and construction support services; and staff will be reimbursed by the Proposition 84 grant
secured by the Park District through the State Coastal Conservancy on September 28, 2017.
Amendment No. 2 to the Commission-Park District MOU provides for the reimbursement of the
Commission’s Project costs.

EXHIBIT A
Project Understanding
The Riverside Regional Park and Open Space District is continuing their expansion of the existing
Santa Ana River Trail (SART) network with the design and proposed construction of about 3.1
miles of trail referred to as Phases 2, 2A and 3A. Phase 2 will begin near Rincon Road and
Temescal Wash picking up at the end of proposed Phase 4 trail improvements. Phase 2 will
head northwesterly along Rincon Street and terminate at Stagecoach Road. Beginning at the
recently designed Phase 4 trail near Smith Road and Butterfield Drive in the City of Corona,
Phases 2A and 3A will proceed westerly and terminate below the Prado Dam spillway for a total
trail length of about 2.4 miles.
Phase 2 will include a dip crossing at Temescal Wash with most of the trail running roadway
adjacent along Rincon Street and Corydon Street.
Phase 2A will pick up where the recently designed Phase 4 terminates along Butterfield Drive just
east of the Corona Municipal Airport. Phase 2A will run parallel to Butterfield Drive heading
westerly, with at grade crossings at Aviation and Butterfield Drives. The trail will continue westerly
along existing Alcoa Dike haul roads and a USACE dike surrounding the City of Corona’s
wastewater treatment plant. The trail will then traverse across the southerly side of Alcoa Dike
borrow site, serpentine around existing soft rolling topography and then terminate at Auto
Center Drive. The borrow site is anticipated to be disturbed because of proposed Alcoa Dike
Phase 2 improvements and will require grading to establish a trail bench. Two existing natural
drainages will be crossed, and to avoid environmental impacts bridges are proposed to span
drainages. A drainage study will be performed to determine anticipated flow rates and erosion
potential with supplemental information provided by USACE.
Phase 3 A will commence at Auto Center Drive and head westerly and terminate below the
Prado Dam spillway. Phase 3A will run along the toe of a USACE dike, traverse over the dike and
then follow existing dirt access roads. The Phase 3A segment ends adjacent to the easterly side
of the Prado Dam outlet channel. A study and preliminary design will be prepared for the future
Phase 3B bridge below the existing Prado Dam spillway.
Trail designs will be based on criteria included in Chapter 1000 Bicycle Transportation Design –
Caltrans – 12/30/2015, Trail Development Standards – Riverside County Regional Park and Open-
Space District – 07/2009, and Comprehensive Trails Plan – Riverside County Regional Park and
Open-Space District – 08/2017. Phase 3A construction will be included with the USACE Prado
Dam Spillway Project and Phases 2 and 3A will be constructed by RCTC. Phases 2, 2A and 3A
designs will be coordinated with and reviewed by the USACE. Other entities with jurisdictional
review include City of Corona and County of Riverside.
Based upon Stantec’s experience with similar projects and our review of the California
Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines (2020) the proposed Project does not appear to
qualify for a Categorical or a Statutory Exemption and therefore, we believe the proposed

project will require preparation of an Initial Study (IS)/Mitigated Negative Declaration (MND) to
cover activities proposed for Phase 2, 2A, and 3A. Further, that the United States Army Corps of
Engineers (USACE) will prepare a joint CEQA/National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA)
document. The CEQA Lead Agency will be Riverside County Regional Park and Open-Space
District (Parks). Additionally, Riverside County Transportation Commission (RCTC) will be
responsible for providing information in support of the CEQA analysis to USACE on behalf of
Parks. Moreover, the CEQA analysis provided by RCTC via its consultant (Stantec) will augment,
where necessary (for the purposes of CEQA), the analysis prepared for the EA.
A summary of engineering and environmental services to be provided include the following:
1. Survey and Mapping – Survey will consist of field crews collecting data to support the
design. Monument and benchmark locations may be recorded to confirm vertical and
horizontal datums / basis of bearings. The USACE has supplied an overall topo that will
be used for the existing condition base with the field survey supplementing / verifying
the topo. A mapping base will be calculated based upon available boundary and
easement data and items listed in a current and open title report covering the project
area (title report provided by client).
2. Existing Utilities – An existing utility base will be created to depict locations and potential
conflicts. An existing SoCalGas line located within the Phase3A project is to be
relocated and coordination efforts are required to ensure the trail design and gas line
relocation do not conflict.
3. Right-of-Way / License Agreements – Support may be required for right-of-way
acquisition and/or license agreements. Initial efforts will include defining areas and
supporting exhibit preparation with legal descriptions provided per separate contract.
4. Geotechnical Investigation – Stantec subconsultant Ninyo & Moore will provide
geotechnical services including field investigation and report development. USACE
Geotech reports will be used to the extent practical with supplemental investigations
deemed necessary including borings at proposed bridge abutment locations and
pits/borings along the proposed trail alignments.
5. Drainage Studies – Drainage analyses will be conducted to develop existing and
proposed drainage conditions. Results will be compiled in a Drainage Report and used
to develop drainage design features required for the trail improvements. Studies will also
determine design flow rates and anticipated scour at the proposed dip crossing through
Temescal Wah for Phase 2 and proposed bridge locations for Phase 2A.
6. Trail Design – Trail alignments and profiles will be developed and refined during the
design process. Construction documents will be prepared including final plans,
specifications, and estimates.

Scope of Work – Phases 2, 2A and 3A CEQA Compliance
Task 1: Coordination with USACE on Joint EA/FONSE/IS/MND Outline, Content, and Analysis
Because the USACE will be preparing a joint document and relying on Parks and RCTC for the
CEQA portion of the analysis and associated mitigation measures (if any), it is important that a
joint discussion be held to clarify the outline of the document, its content and topical areas, and
the analysis required to address the CEQA component. We recommend this be accomplished
via a joint workshop (virtual WebEx meetings) to address these issues and to reduce duplication
of analysis and document delays. We recommend Parks, in conjunction with RCTC, take the
lead on this effort with support from Stantec. It is anticipated one meeting would suffice to
accomplish this task with follow up and confirmation of action items addressed via email.
Deliverable: Coordination meeting with Parks, RCTC, and USACE
Task 2: Prepare Supplemental and/or Required CEQA Analysis for Joint EA/FONSI/IS/MND
NEPA and CEQA have distinct preparation and analysis requirements. Given this, there will be
portions of the NEPA EA/FONSI that do not meet the requirements of CEQA. Utilizing information

derived from Task 1, Stantec will work with the USACE, Parks, and RCTC to determine where
CEQA-related analysis and methodologies are required and provide these in a format for easy
incorporation into the joint document. As part of this task, Stantec will identify feasible mitigation
measures if needed, to reduce potentially significant environmental impacts to less than
significant.
Deliverable: Preparation of supplemental CEQA analysis for incorporation into joint CEQA/NEPA
document
Task 3: Coordination with USACE, Parks, and RCTC on Circulation of the Notice of Intent to Adopt
a Mitigated Negative Declaration
After review and approval of the joint document by USACE, Parks, and RCTC, Stantec will
coordinate with both USACE and Parks to prepare and circulate the Notice of Intent (NOI) to
Adopt an MND to responsible agencies, trustee agencies, other interested parties and the
County Clerk, as mandated by CEQA. The NOI will start the 30-day review period for the CEQA
portion of the joint document. A certified mailing list of neighboring owners/occupants based
upon an agreed radius (generally 500-feet from the Project site) will be prepared by Stantec.
Stantec will prepare the agency mailing list for Parks and RCTC review and approval, coordinate
direct mailings (assumed to be limited to agencies and via FedEx or other traceable mailing
means), and circulate the NOI and/or joint document to the appropriate parties. Stantec will be
responsible for preparing the advertisement text for the local paper and for publishing the
notices. Stantec will provide an electronic/reproducible copy of the joint document and NOI,
including all technical studies (if applicable), to Parks and RCTC. It is assumed Parks will post the
NOI and associated documents on its website. We also understand USACE will post the EA/IS on
its website too.
Stantec understands the USACE will circulate the EA/IS under their cover letter. To ensure
compliance with CEQA, the cover letter will need to include required information and/or text.
Stantec, RCTC, and Parks in conjunction with USACE will jointly prepare the cover letter to ensure
it is CEQA and NEPA compliant for the EA/IS.
Deliverable: Coordination with Parks, RCTC, and USACE on circulation of EA/IS and Notice of
Intent to Adopt a Mitigated Negative Declaration
Task 4: Response to Comments on the Initial Study, Prepare Mitigation Monitoring & Reporting
Program, and File Notice of Determination
Upon completion of the public review period, Stantec will respond to comments on the CEQA
portion of the joint document. Public reaction to the EA/IS cannot be predicted with accuracy
and could range from a small number of generally positive comments to a substantial number of
strongly negative and technically sophisticated comments. For purposes of this proposal, it is
assumed that comments on the Draft EA/IS will be moderate. Further, the USACE will be
responsible for comments on the EA portion of the document and Stantec will provide support
on behalf of Parks and RCTC for this effort. As part of this task, Stantec will respond to each
comment individually, including each comment and response in the Final EA/IS, as noted
above. In addition, as part of this task, Stantec will prepare a Mitigation Monitoring and

Reporting Program (MMRP) for the Project, which is also required by CEQA. It is assumed that
USACE (in coordination with Stantec) will compile the Final joint document, and two rounds of
review and comment with Parks and RCTC are assumed. When the Final EA/IS/ is approved by
Parks and RCTC, Stantec will notify interested parties and those who commented that the Final
EA/IS has provided responses to their comments on the IS and that a Notice of Determination
(NOD) (for the purposes of CEQA) has been prepared. Stantec will further coordinate with Parks
and RCTC regarding the filing of the NOD with the County Clerk and State Clearinghouse, within
five (5) days of Project approval, after which a 30-day statute of limitations for CEQA challenges
to the Project begins. Stantec will pay the California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW) and
County Clerk filing fees at the time of filing the NOD. Stantec assumes the USACE will provide an
electronic/reproducible copy of the Final EA/IS for uploading to the Parks website.
Deliverable: Response to Comments on the joint CEQA/NEPA document, Prepare Mitigation
Monitoring & Reporting Program, and File Notice of Determination
PERMIT COMPLIANCE & TECHNICAL REPORTS
Task 5: Preparation of Jurisdictional Delineation (JD)/Wetlands Determination (WD)
To support the proposed Project, qualified Stantec wetland specialists will conduct a formal
JD/WDR within the Project study/survey area. After more precise Project boundaries are defined
during Project Description/Data Collection, Stantec will conduct a jurisdictional delineation of
“waters of the US,” including wetlands, waters of the State, and California Department of Fish
and Wildlife (CDFW) jurisdictional waters within 100 feet of the Project area (where accessible).
The jurisdictional limits of the waters of the US within the Project area will be delineated following
the methodology of the US Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) 1987 Wetland Delineation Manual
and the Interim Regional Supplement to the USACE Wetland Delineation Manual: Arid West
Region (2006). Identified jurisdictional boundaries will be delineated and mapped, with
acreages quantified using a GPS-enabled mapping tablet capable of sub-meter positional
accuracy.
Prior to conducting the field assessment, Stantec will review current and historic aerial
photographs, topographic maps, available soils information, and local and State hydric soil list
information to evaluate potential jurisdictional features within the Project area. Many potentially
jurisdictional features are often misidentified when reviewing aerial photography alone. As such,
each feature will be verified in the field.
To verify information described above, Stantec will conduct a field reconnaissance survey with
experienced wetland specialists, which will include a field investigation into the current status of
jurisdictional waters/wetland habitats within the Project area. Based on the data collected on
the Project area, the total area of State and federal jurisdictional features will be calculated.
Upon completion of fieldwork, Stantec will prepare a formal JD/WDR in a format acceptable to
support compliance with USACE, Regional Water Quality Control Board (RWQCB) – Santa Ana,
and CDFW requirements under the Federal Clean Water Act and CDFW requirements under the
Federal Clean Water Act and CDFW Code (including adherence to the Mapping Episodic
Stream Activity [MESA] guidelines where applicable). The report will include maps, figures, photo

documentation, and field data sheets. All shapefiles created as part of the Project will be
provided to Parks/RCTC/USACE with the final report. Stantec will respond to one set of
comments and issue final reports within two weeks of receiving comments from the
Parks/RCTC/USACE on the draft report package.
Deliverable: Draft and Final Delineation Report
Task 6: Prepare Biological Resources Technical Report (BRTR):
It is assumed that as part of the USACE EA preparation, a biological assessment will be prepared
by staff biologists and the results provided to Parks/RCTC/Stantec. Because the USACE focus is
primarily on federally protected species, it will be necessary for the purposes of CEQA to identify
non-federal species as well. Stantec biologists will conduct focused (non-protocol level) surveys
to provide a general biological resources inventory of the proposed Project study/survey area to
determine the presence/absence of and the potential for occurrence of comment and special
status plants or vegetation communities.
While the surveys will serve to document all plants and wildlife, they will generally focus on the
detection of sensitive birds, mammals, reptiles, invertebrates, and amphibians that may occur
on or near the Project site. To the extent possible surveys will conducted when special-status
plant species would be in bloom or identifiable, migratory birds would be passing through and
returning to the site, resident bird species would be nesting and fledging, small mammals would
be active, and above-ground amphibian and reptile movement would be detectable.
However, it is acknowledged that some wildlife species and/or individuals may be difficult to
detect due to their elusive nature, cryptic morphology, or nocturnal behavior.
Observations of sensitive wildlife will be logged using a Trimble GPS or GIS tablet and mapped
on aerial photography; Stantec biologists will also note the presence and distribution of invasive
plants wildlife within areas surveyed. The following is a summary of methodologies that will be
employed during the general biological surveys.
Literature Review: A literature search will be performed in conjunction with the field surveys for
the project site. A search of the CDFW California Natural Diversity Database (CNDDB) will be
conducted for the U.S. Geological Survey’s (USGS) 7.5-minute topographic quadrangle in which
the survey(s) occur along with the adjacent eight quadrangles. The purpose of the search is to
determine the special-status plants, wildlife, and vegetation communities that have been
documented within the vicinity of the project. Additional data regarding the potential
occurrence of special-status species and policies relating to these special-status natural
resources is generally gathered from the following sources:
• State listed endangered and threatened animals of California
• CDFW Special Animals List
• CDFW California Wildlife Habitat Relationships
• CNPS Inventory of Rare and Endangered Vascular Plants of California
• Consortium of California Herbaria
• Aerial photographs of the location to be surveyed and surrounding areas

Common and Sensitive Wildlife: Reconnaissance-level surveys will be performed by methodically
walking meandering transects through the entirety of the project site at an average pace of
approximately 1.5 km/hr. while visually searching for and listening to wildlife songs and calls and
searching for animal signs (i.e., scat, footprints, fur, burrows, etc.). The walking surveys will be
halted approximately every 50 meters to listen for wildlife or whenever necessary to identify,
record, or enumerate any other detected species.
Terrestrial insects and other invertebrates are searched for on flowers and leaves, under loose
bark and under stones and logs on the ground throughout the project site. Randomly selected
areas within appropriate micro habitats (i.e., leaf litter, underneath felled logs, etc.) will be hand
raked or visually inspected to determine the presence/absence of gastropods.
Surveys will be conducted during daylight hours when temperatures are such that reptiles would
be active (i.e., between 75 – 95F). Visual observations will be made to locate basking reptiles,
and potential refuge areas, such as debris piles (i.e., woody debris, trash, etc.), are searched. All
refugia sites search are returned to their original state upon survey completion.
Vegetation Mapping: Vegetation descriptions and names are based on Sawyer et al. (2009)
and will be defined at least to the alliance level. Vegetation maps are prepared by drawing
tentative vegetation type boundaries onto high-resolution aerial images while in the field, then
digitizing these polygons into GIS. Most boundaries shown on the resulting maps are accurate
within approximately three feet; however, boundaries between some vegetation types are less
precise due to difficulties interpreting aerial imagery and accessing stands of vegetation.
The Stantec Team utilizes the latest advances in technology to create highly accurate and
descriptive vegetation maps. Utilizing a GPS enabled tablet, along with sub-meter GPS receivers,
the Stantec Team can map vegetation communities while on-site and immediately upload the
data to the cloud for processing back at the office. This valuable tool limits the need for a large
amount of paper maps, thus reducing overall costs while being environmentally conscious. We
assume one round of consolidated comments for the review.

Utilizing information developed in Task 6 and by the USACE as part of their EA analysis related to
biological resources, a Habitat Assessment/MSHCP Consistency Analysis report will be prepared
based upon the literature review and field studies conducted for the proposed Project. The
report will address the proposed project in relation to the MSHCP requirements, including
applicable Criteria Cells and/or Cell Group, Cores and Linkages, and surveys required by the
MSHCP compliance. The report will also include a Reserve Assembly Analysis. Further, the report
will assess Section 6.1.2 resources, including riparian/riverine resources, vernal pools fairy shrimp,
and riparian birds; Section 6.1.3 Narrow Endemic Plant Species; and, Section 6.3.2 Additional

Survey Needs and Procedures, such as special criteria area species and burrowing owl. It should
be noted we understand trails to be a covered activity, per the MSHCP.
Upon finalization of the Habitat Assessment/MSHCP Consistency Analysis, the complete
proposed Project application will be submitted to the RCA. The RCA and wildlife agencies have
30 calendar days to review the application. The RCA and wildlife agencies typically have
comments on the application, which require revisions to the documents and extends the review
period. If the RCA finds that the project is consistent with the MSHCP, Consistency Findings are
submitted to the wildlife agencies for review. The wildlife agencies will then review the RCA’s
Consistency Findings and make a determination. Project proponents are always advised to
expect the process to take anywhere between 6 to 9 months.
Stantec will prepare a DBESP Report in compliance with the requirements of the Western
Riverside County MSHCP, which will describe in detail (i.e., map, qualify, and quantify) the
resources present, the resources to be impacted by the proposed project (both direct and
indirect), and the acres proposed to mitigate for the proposed impacts, and include a finding
that the proposed project would be biologically equivalent or superior to the avoidance
alternative.
The MSHCP requires that a DBESP include the following:
• A description of the project site;
• A written project description, demonstrating why an avoidance alternative is not
possible;
• A written description of biological information available for the project site, including
results of resource mapping;
• Quantification of unavoidable impacts, including direct and indirect effects, to
riparian/riverine areas and vernal pools associated with the project;
• A written description of project design features and mitigation measures that reduce
effects, such as edge treatments, landscaping, elevation difference, and minimization
and/or compensation through restoration or enhancement; and,
• A finding demonstrating that although the proposed project would not avoid impacts,
with proposed design and compensation measures, it would be biologically equivalent
or superior to that which would occur under an avoidance alternative without these
measures, based on one or more of the following factors:
o Effects on conserved habitats
o Effects on the species listed above under the heading “Purpose” in Section 6.1.2
o Effects on riparian linkages and functions of the MSHCP Conservation Area.

Task 8: Prepare Sections 401, 404, and 1602 Permits
Lake and Streambed Alteration Agreement: Stantec will prepare a Lake and Streambed
Alteration Notification for submittal to CDFW. The notification application will include the
appropriate notification form with supporting information included as an attachment. If CDFW
determines that the Project may substantially adversely affect existing fish or wildlife resources, a
Lake or Streambed Alteration Agreement will be required for the Project. Stantec will provide an
electronic version of the application to the Parks/RCTC for review and will address any
comments. Once finalized, Stantec will submit the finalized application to Parks/RCTC for
transmittal to CDFW. CDFW is also a CEQA responsible agency and will require documentation
that the CEQA process has been completed before a Lake or Streambed Alteration Agreement
is issued for the Project.
Section 401 Water Quality Certification: Stantec will prepare a Water Quality Certification
application for the waters of the United States and State that would be affected by the
proposed Project. A copy of the USACE pre-preconstruction notification would be included with
the application. Stantec will provide an electronic version of the application to the Parks/RCTC
for review and will address any comments. Once finalized, Stantec will submit the finalized
application to Parks/RCTC for transmittal to the RWQCB – Santa Ana. The RWQCB as a
responsible agency under CEQA, will require documentation that the CEQA process has been
completed before a Water Quality Certification will be issued for the Project.
Section 404 of the Clean Water Act: Based on the nature of the proposed Project and the
anticipated effects to Prado Dam, the proposed Project will likely qualify for coverage under
Nationwide Permit #14 for Linear Transportation Projects. To obtain coverage under the
Nationwide Permit, Stantec will prepare a pre-construction notification and provide details on
the anticipated Project impacts (i.e., placement of fill) to waters of the United States, including
wetlands. Stantec will provide an electronic version of the pre-construction notification to
Parks/RCTC for review and will address any comments. Once finalized, Stantec will submit the
pre-construction notification application to Parks for transmittal to the USACE.
Assumptions: Stantec assumes one (1) draft and (1) final version of each permit application
package will be provided to Parks/RCTC before submission to regulatory agencies. Permit
applications will be submitted with fees by Parks/RCTC staff. An incidental take permit for take of
a state-listed species is not expected at this time.
Task 9: Tribal Cultural Resources
As now required by AB 52, The tribal cultural resources section of the CEQA environmental
document will analyze direct and indirect impacts to tribal cultural resources because of the
proposed Project. If requested, Stantec will request a list of Native Americans from the Native
American Heritage Commission for AB 52 consultation or refer to consultation requests already
submitted to Parks. Draft letters initiating or continuing AB 52 consultation on behalf of Parks will
be drafted by Stantec for Parks. We assume that no tribal cultural resources are present in the
Project Area.

package and will be provided to RCTC before submission to regulatory agencies. An
incidental take permit for take of a state-listed species is not expected at this time.
• Since the actual number of acres affected by the proposed project is not known at this
time, Parks may be required to apply for an Individual Permit through USACE, assuming
Nationwide Permit #14 is not applicable. Provided this is the case, Stantec will prepare a
separate scope of work and fee estimate.
• 401 and 1602 estimated permit application fees are based on information known during
proposal effort and may be subject to change since the actual number of acres
affected by the project is not known at this time.
• No plan check fees anticipated from reviewing agencies.
Exclusions
• Legal descriptions for right-of-way / license agreements

38 Technology Drive, Suite 100
Irvine, California 92618
Subject: Proposal for Geotechnical Consulting Services
Santa Ana River Trail Phase 2
Corona, California
Reference: Ninyo & Moore, 2020, Geotechnical Earthwork and Preliminary Pavement Design
Recommendations, Santa Ana River Trail Phase 4, Corona, California, dated July
23.
Dear Mr. Brandt:
In accordance with your request, we have prepared this proposal to provide geotechnical consulting
services for Phase 2 of the Santa Ana River Trail (SART) project located in Corona, California. We
understand that an approximately 3,400-foot-long pedestrian, equestrian, and hiking trail is proposed
along the southwest side of West Rincon Street and along the northwest side of Corydon Street
roadway. We understand that the SART will be constructed as part of the Alcoa Dike project. Ninyo
& Moore previously performed a geotechnical evaluation for the SART Phase 4 project, the results
of which were presented in our report dated July 23, 2020. Details regarding the Phase 2 of the
SART project were not provided during the preparation of this proposal, however, based on our
previous evaluation of SART Phase 4, we understand that portions of the trail consist of natural
surface trail that will be capped with decomposed granite and multi-use path that will be paved with
asphalt concrete.
The primary geotechnical concerns for the project include evaluating the depths of remedial grading
that will be needed to remove loose surficial soils prior to placing fill to construct the SART Phase 2,
providing soil percolation rates for storm water infiltration facilities, and to provide recommendations
for structural pavement sections for the asphalt concrete paved trail and the decomposed granite
trail.
54
Ninyo & Moore | Santa Ana River Trail Phase 2, Corona, California | 208627004 | January 12, 2021 2
SCOPE OF SERVICES
Based on our understanding of the project, our scope of services will consist of a geotechnical
evaluation including the following:
• Project coordination, planning, and scheduling for subsurface exploration.
• Review of readily available topographic, geologic, fault, and flood maps, other published
literature, stereoscopic aerial photographs, and in-house information.
• Review previous geotechnical reports, addenda, and plans for the SART provided by the client.
• Performance of a geotechnical site reconnaissance and geologic mapping to observe the
general site conditions, surficial geology, and to mark proposed test pit locations for utility
clearance by Underground Service Alert (USA).
• Acquire encroachment permit to excavate along the City of Corona right-of-way, adjacent to the
existing pavement, if required.
• Subsurface exploration consisting of the excavation, sampling, and logging of three (3) backhoe
test pits to depths ranging from approximately 5 to 7 feet below existing grades, or refusal,
whichever is shallower. The test pits will be excavated in the shoulder areas of the roadways,
off of the pavement. The test pits will be logged by our engineer/geologist and samples will be
obtained at selected intervals. The soil samples will be transported to our laboratory for testing.
Following sampling and logging, the test pits will be backfilled with the excavated soil.
• Perform a two shallow percolation tests in accordance with the Riverside County guidelines.
• Laboratory testing of representative soil samples which may include in-situ moisture and dry
density, sieve analyses, consolidation, direct shear strength, R-value, and soil corrosivity, as
applicable.
• Compilation and geotechnical analysis of field and laboratory data, including analyses to
evaluate and provide recommendations pertaining to the following:
o Suitability of the site for the proposed construction from a geotechnical standpoint.
o Description of the geology, soils, and groundwater depth at the site.
o Evaluation of the site seismicity and potential geologic hazards.
o Excavation characteristics of the on-site materials, including anticipated difficult excavation,
caving potential, and oversize material handling.
o Evaluation of remedial grading depths for the proposed trail and associated slopes (if any).
o Fill material and compaction requirements, including suitability of the on-site soils for use
as engineered fill and trench backfill.
o Preparation of California Building Code seismic design parameters, if needed.
o Evaluation of in-situ infiltration rate at the site.
55
Ninyo & Moore | Santa Ana River Trail Phase 2, Corona, California | 208627004 | January 12, 2021 3
o Evaluation of structural pavement design for the asphalt concrete paved multi-use path and
the decomposed granite trail.
o Evaluation of the corrosion potential of on-site soils.
• Preparation of a geotechnical report for the site, presenting our findings, conclusions, and
recommendations pertaining to the project. Our report will include a site plan, test pit location
map, pertinent geologic and seismic hazard maps, test pit logs, and laboratory test results.
ASSUMPTIONS
In preparing this proposal, we have made the following assumptions:
• The test pit locations are accessible by a backhoe and the test pits can be performed during
regular business hours (Monday through Friday, 7:00 am to 5:00 pm). If test pits need to be
performed outside of these hours (after 5:00 pm on weekdays or during weekends), additional
fees will be charged by our backhoe subcontractor.
• We will be provided with plans showing the locations of existing utilities. Ninyo & Moore will not
be responsible for damage to utilities not shown on the plans nor marked out by USA.
• A permit for performing our test pits for the project within the City of Corona Right of Way, if
needed, will be provided to Ninyo & Moore at no cost.
• A permit for performing our test pits for the project from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers will
not be required.
• Our test pits will be excavated off of the pavement, on the shoulder areas of the roadway. Traffic
control will not be needed for our subsurface exploration. If traffic control is required, this can
be provided for an additional fee.
• Our evaluation will not include any sampling, testing, or chemical analysis of hazardous
materials, should they be encountered. These services can be provided, if warranted and if
requested, as an additional scope of work.
SCHEDULE
Following receipt of the Notice to Proceed, Ninyo & Moore will commence the services described
herein. We anticipate that our field work will begin within approximately two weeks after receipt of
permits. Our laboratory testing will be completed approximately two weeks after completion of the
field evaluation, and our report will be issued approximately two weeks after completion of the
laboratory testing. Preliminary design parameters can be provided upon completion of the laboratory
testing upon request.
FEE
Our services will be performed for a fee of $15,083. A breakdown of our fee and hours are presented
in the attached Table 1.

Subject: Proposal for Geotechnical Consulting Services
Santa Ana River Trail Phase 2A
Corona, California
Reference: Ninyo & Moore, 2020, Geotechnical Earthwork and Preliminary Pavement Design
Recommendations, Santa Ana River Trail Phase 4, Corona, California, dated July
23.
Dear Mr. Brandt:
In accordance with your request, we have prepared this proposal to provide geotechnical consulting
services for Phase 2A of the Santa Ana River Trail (SART) project located in Corona, California. We
understand that an approximately 6,400-foot-long pedestrian, equestrian, and hiking trail is proposed
to the north and west of Butterfield Park that terminates at the northeast corner of the City of Corona
Water Reclamation Plant (WCP), and continues from the southwest corner of the WCP towards Auto
Center Drive. We understand that the SART will be constructed as part of the Alcoa Dike project. In
addition, the Phase 2a of the SART will include two bridges that will span drainage swales. The
bridges are anticipated to be pre-fabricated steel structures that will be supported by abutments on
either side of the drainages. Ninyo & Moore previously performed a geotechnical evaluation for the
SART Phase 4 project, the results of which were presented in our report dated July 23, 2020.
Detailed plans for the Phase 2A of the SART project were not provided during the preparation of this
proposal, however, based on our previous evaluation of SART Phase 4, we understand that portions
of the trail consist of natural surface trail that will be capped with decomposed granite and multi-use
path that will be paved with asphalt concrete.
The primary geotechnical concerns for the project include evaluating the depths of remedial grading
that will be needed to remove loose surficial soils prior to placing fill to construct the SART Phase
2A, providing soil percolation rates for storm water infiltration facilities, to provide geotechnical
design recommendation for the proposed trail bridges, and to provide recommendations for
structural pavement sections for the asphalt concrete paved trail and the decomposed granite trail.
In addition, the site vicinity is mapped as being susceptible to liquefaction by the County of Riverside.
60
Ninyo & Moore | Santa Ana River Trail Phase 2A, Corona, California | 208627004 | January 12, 2021 2
Therefore, our services will include evaluating the liquefaction potential and the potential for dynamic
settlement for the new bridges.
SCOPE OF SERVICES
Based on our understanding of the project, our scope of services will consist of a geotechnical
evaluation including the following:
• Project coordination, planning, and scheduling for subsurface exploration.
• Review of readily available topographic, geologic, fault, and flood maps, other published
literature, stereoscopic aerial photographs, and in-house information.
• Review previous geotechnical reports, addenda, and plans for the SART provided by the client.
• Performance of a geotechnical site reconnaissance and geologic mapping to observe the
general site conditions, surficial geology, and to mark proposed test pit locations for utility
clearance by Underground Service Alert (USA).
• Subsurface exploration consisting of the drilling, sampling, and logging of four small diameter
borings to depths of up to approximately 60 feet below existing grades, or refusal, whichever is
shallower. The borings will be drilled utilizing a limited-access hollow-stem auger drill rig. The
borings will be logged by our engineer/geologist and samples will be obtained at selected
intervals. The soil samples will be transported to our laboratory for testing. Following sampling
and logging, the borings will be backfilled with the cement-bentonite grout. The cuttings will be
spread thinly on-site.
• Subsurface exploration consisting of the excavation, sampling, and logging of three backhoe
test pits to depths up to approximately 7 feet below existing grades, or refusal, whichever is
shallower. The test pits will be logged by our engineer/geologist and samples will be obtained
at selected intervals. The soil samples will be transported to our laboratory for testing. Following
sampling and logging, the test pits will be backfilled with the excavated soil.
• Perform a two shallow percolation tests in accordance with the Riverside County guidelines.
• Laboratory testing of representative soil samples which may include in -situ moisture and dry
density, sieve analyses, consolidation, direct shear strength, R-value, and soil corrosivity, as
applicable.
• Compilation and geotechnical analysis of field and laboratory data, including analyses to
evaluate and provide recommendations pertaining to the following:
o Suitability of the site for the proposed construction from a geotechnical standpoint.
o Description of the geology, soils, and groundwater depth at the site.
o Evaluation of the site seismicity and potential geologic hazards.
o Excavation characteristics of the on-site materials, including anticipated difficult excavation,
caving potential, and oversize material handling.
61
Ninyo & Moore | Santa Ana River Trail Phase 2A, Corona, California | 208627004 | January 12, 2021 3
o Evaluation of remedial grading depths for the proposed trail, bridge abutments, and
associated slopes (if any).
o Fill material and compaction requirements, including suitability of the on -site soils for use
as engineered fill and trench backfill.
o Development of site-specific response spectrum and acceleration parameters in
accordance with CBC and Chapter 21 of American Society of Civil Engineers 7-16
guidelines.
o Evaluation of the anticipated earthquake ground motions and appropriate 2019 CBC
seismic design parameters.
o Geotechnical engineering design parameters for new foundations for the bridges, including
allowable bearing capacity values, lateral earth pressures, and estimated total and
differential settlement. Recommendations will be provided for shallow foundations or a pile
system, as appropriate.
o Evaluation of in-situ infiltration rate at the site.
o Evaluation of structural pavement design for the asphalt concrete paved multi-use path and
the decomposed granite trail.
o Evaluation of the corrosion potential of on-site soils.
• Preparation of a geotechnical report for the site, presenting our findings, conclusions, and
recommendations pertaining to the project. Our report will include a site plan, boring test pit
location map, pertinent geologic and seismic hazard maps, boring and test pit logs, and
laboratory test results.
ASSUMPTIONS
In preparing this proposal, we have made the following assumptions:
• The boring and test pit locations are accessible by a limited-access drill rig and backhoe, and
the borings/test pits can be performed during regular business hours (Monday through Friday,
7:00 am to 5:00 pm). If the subsurface explorations need to be performed outside of these hours
(after 5:00 pm on weekdays or during weekends), additional fees will be charged by our
subcontractors.
• We will be provided with plans showing the locations of existing utilities. Ninyo & Moore will not
be responsible for damage to utilities not shown on the plans nor marked out by USA.
• A permit for performing our borings and test pits for the project from the City of Corona and the
U.S. Army Corps of Engineers will not be required.
• Our evaluation will not include any sampling, testing, or chemical analysis of hazardous
materials, should they be encountered. These services can be provided, if warrant ed and if
requested, as an additional scope of work.
