FISCAL YEAR 2008/09 ALLOCATION OF FUNDING FOR RIVERSIDE COUNTY TRANSIT SERVICES Fina Clemente, Staff Analyst, presented the FY 2008/09 allocation of funding for Riverside County transit services and announced that there will be a public hearing regarding the proposed Section 5307 Program of Projects (POP) at the July Commission meeting. She then discussed the request to allocate interim funding to the city of Beaumont (Beaumont). Commissioner Chris Carlson expressed concern regarding Beaumont's submittal of its FY 2010/11 Short Range Transit Plan (SRTP). Fina Clemente responded that staff is continuing to work with Beaumont to complete its SRTP. Commissioner Carlson requested additional information to clarify the circumstances with Beaumont. Anne Mayer, Executive Director, responded that staff is working with Commissioner Roger Berg and Beaumont to complete the SRTP. The $270,000 will provide interim funding for one quarter of the fiscal year. Commissioner Carlson expressed concern that this is a habitual issue with Beaumont. She requested milestones be established if interim funding is provided to ensure the Commission is not subject to exposure on how these funds are distributed. Anne Mayer responded that staff will work with Beaumont to set milestones that will be defined in an action plan and included in the staff report that is presented to the Commission. In response to Commissioner Marion Ashley's concern that Beaumont may opt out of the TUMF program, Anne Mayer explained that if Beaumont were to remove itself from the TUMF program, it would be ineligible for Measure A funding as well. Additionally, opting out would impact the Commission's TUMF Regional Arterial program. • RCTC Plans and Programs Committee Minutes June 23, 2008 Page 6 M/S/C (Carlson/Busch) to: 1) Allocate up to $270,000 of interim Local Transportation Fund (LTF) funds to the city of Beaumont in place of its annual allocation pending submittal and approval of its FY 2008/09 through FY 2010/11 SRTP; 2) Approve the FY 2008/09 Federal Transit Administration's (FTA) Section 5307 and 5311 Program of Projects (POP) for Riverside County; 3) Conduct a public hearing at the July Commission meeting on the proposed Section 5307 POP as attached; 4) Direct staff to add projects into the Regional Transportation Improvement Plan (RTIP); 5) Approve the FY 2008/09 LTF and State Transit Assistance (STA) fund allocations for transit as attached; 6) Adopt Resolution No. 08-018, "Resolution of the Riverside County Transportation Commission to Allocate State Transit Assistance Fund and 7) Forward to the Commission for final action. 13.

Field Exploration, Testing Services and Technical Evaluations for the Proposed Irvine to Corona Expressway Project STAFF RECOMMENDATION: This item is for the Committee to: 1) Approve Agreement No. 07-65-105-04, Amendrnent No. 4 to Agreement No. 07-65-105-00, with Kleinfelder to provide geotechnical field exploration, testing services and technical evaluations for the proposed Irvine to Corona Expressway project based on the negotiated project scope, schedule and cost that is attached to this agenda item for a not to exceed amount of $743,652; 2) Authorize the Executive Director, pursuant to legal counsel review, to execute amendments for non -cardinal changes to the scope of work up to a maximum of $250,000 for unforeseen optional tasks bringing this total request to $993,652; 3) Authorize the Chair, pursuant to legal counsel review, to execute the agreement on behalf of the Commission; 4) Authorize the Executive Director or designee to approve contingency work of optional tasks as may be required for the project; and 5) Forward to the Commission for final action. BACKGROUND INFORMATION: In 2006, the Commission executed a cooperative agreement with the Orange County Transportation Authority (OCTA) and the Foothill/Eastern Transportation Corridor Agency (TCA) to develop and manage geotechnical feasibility studies for a potential transportation and utility corridor linking Riverside and Orange Counties. The purpose of the agreement is to jointly exercise the common powers of its parties as the Riverside Orange Corridor Authority (ROCA). The Commission is charged with administering the cooperative agreement and is responsible for the Agenda Item 8 1 receipt and expenditure of federal and state funds to accomplish the geotechnical studies. At its February 14, 2007 meeting, the Commission awarded Agreement No. 07-65-105-00 to Kleinfelder to provide supplemental geotechnical field exploration, testing services, and technical evaluations for the proposed Irvine to Corona Expressway project for a total not to exceed amount of $6,158,608. Administrative Amendment Nos. 07-65-105-01, 07-65-105-02, and 07-65-105-03 were issued within the currently authorized budget to Kleinfelder on August 2007, June 2008, and August 2008, respectively. Amendment No. 1 covered additional costs for the web -based management system. Amendment No. 2 covered the costs associated with bringing in fire monitors required by the forest Service. Amendment No. 3 covered the cost associated with bringing in the Technical Advisory Panel to determine tunnel feasibility for this project. These three amendments did not increase the approved budget of $6,158,608 by the Commission at its February 14, 2007 meeting. At its July 9, 2008 meeting, the Commission authorized an additional $650,000 for the deepening of two corehole locations as requested by Congressman Calvert, ROCA Board and Metropolitan Water District. These additional funds {originally identified as part of Amendment 3) will be rolled into this requested Amendment 4. To date, two out of the five coreholes have been drilled to their projected depth. Two of the coreholes have been drilled to an approximate half way of their projected depth leaving one corehole that is scheduled to commence drilling during the week of August 25, 2008. Since at least half of the proposed work has been completed to date, staff and the consultant team have a better understanding of tasks and effort it will take to complete the geotechnical work. The actual drilling field work started in April 2008 at a rate of 27 feet per day. This rate was below the expected drilling rate of 35 feet per day. Due to this drilling rate, the duration of the drilling program is being lengthened, which in turn lengthens the duration of the field geologist and support staff. In addition, monthly meetings have been taking place with Forest Service staff to keep them informed on activities currently been performed on forest lands. At the request of Forest Service staff, additional water monitoring sites were added to the scope of work. These additional sites required monitoring equipment and multiple visits to gather the requested water data. Table 1(attached) describes other reasons for the extended duration for the completion of this project. Staff recommends that the Commission approve Amendment No. 4 to Kleinfelder for the continuation of the drilling of coreholes to provide geotechnical field exploration, testing services, and technical evaluations for the proposed Irvine to Corona Expressway project.

Staff plans to issue several competitive solicitations for additional rehabilitation work, such as glass replacement, and bring these contract awards to the Commission at a future date. Tropical Plaza Nursery, Inc. In January 2008, as a result of a competitive solicitation, the Commission entered into an agreement with Tropical Plaza Nursery, Inc. (Tropical) to provide landscape maintenance services at the five Metrolink stations. The current agreement is for a single year term with options for a value of $225,000, which includes $135,000 for monthly maintenance and $90,000 for repairs on an as needed basis. The work performed to date by Tropical has been satisfactory; therefore, it is requested to increase the Tropical contract to address the landscape rehabilitation needs for a not to exceed amount of $100,000 a year for the first year and $100,000 for the second year if the option is exercised. The new total amount of the contract after the proposed increase and if all the options were exercised would be $650,000. Process Communication Developers Inc. In January 2008, as a result of a competitive solicitation, the Commission entered into an agreement with Process Communication Developers, Inc. to provide for on -call general commuter rail station maintenance for $100,000 a year for three years. Since that time the contractor has demonstrated an ability to be responsive and perform quality work. Staff has deemed this contractor to be vital to the successful implementation of the rehabilitation and security plans for this project and as such, is recommending that its contract be amended for an increase of $300,000 to account for the additional work. Process would provide the type of maintenance activities currently being performed under the existing contract such as, installation of fencing, bollards, lighting upgrades, window replacement, station access and platform improvements, signage, and a variety of other general requirements identified in the plan. The new total amount of the contract after the proposed increase and if all the options were exercised would be $600,000. Inland Vault and Security Since June 2004, the Commission has utilized Inland Vault. and Security as the primary contractor to maintain, repair, and expand the commission's closed circuit security system (CCTV). The original contract for CCTV maintenance was for $30,000 a year and since then it has been amended four times, due to the contractor's quality work and the need to increase the scope to address additional repairs. This contractor has intimate knowledge of the commission's complex CCTV system and would be the most capable vendor to provide for an expanded Agenda Item 9 • • 12 " " C C T V n e t w o r k a s i d e n t i f i e d i n t h e s e c u r i t y p l a n .

BACKGROUND INFORMATION: Proposition 1, or the Safe, Reliable High -Speed Passenger Train Bond Act for the 21 st Century will appear on the November 2008 ballot and asks voters to approve the issuance of $9.95 billion of general obligation bonds. This would partially fund a $40 billion, 800-mite high speed train under the supervision of the California High -Speed Rail Authority (CHSRA). The train would run between San Francisco and Los Angeles, with Anaheim designated as the southern terminus of the initial segment of the high-speed rail (HST) system. Estimates are that the rail system would be completed in 2030, and that it would take passengers between San Francisco and Los Angeles in about 2 hours and 40 minutes. A total of $950 million of the bond proceeds would be available for capital projects on other passenger rail lines to provide connectivity to the high-speed rail system and for capacity enhancements and safety improvements to those lines. Proposition 1 came about from the Legislature's approval of SB 1856 back in 2002. That bill directed that the bond measure be put forward to the voters in 2004. Subsequent legislation pushed the election off until 2006 and another postponement moved the item to this year's General Election ballot. Agenda Item 11 22 The delays were the result of various state budget problems in 2004 and the effort was nixed in 2006 because of the Governor's concern that it would divert attention and support away from his infrastucture bond program. Legislative intrigue has not been limited to the two postponements. This year, Assemblywoman Cathleen Galgiani (D-Stockton) introduced AB 3034, which amends and expands descriptions of route segments of the high speed rail system, makes the $9 billion for high-speed trains available on all of the 800 mile high-speed rail route, limits the amount of bond funds that can be spent on preconstruction and preliminary engineering activities, requires detailed funding plans for each corridor or usable segment, and establishes peer review and legislative oversight and approval. Opening up the entire route for funding eligibility means that extensions to San Diego which would likely include an alignment through Riverside County, would make funding available for local rail improvements. This would be Especially, true regarding the $950 million that is being made available for complementary rail services. Without the amendments provided by AB 3034, high-speed rail bond proceeds would only be made available for the initial, priority segment between Anaheim and San Francisco. The Commission took a SUPPORT position on AB 3034 at its June Commission meeting primarily because of the liberalized funding eligibility and because the bill requires greater accountability and oversight over the CHSRA. While the bill has garnered widespread support, prompt action from the Legislature was necessary given the impending election in November. The Legislature finally approved the bill on Wednesday August 13 and immediately sent it to Governor Schwarzenegger, who has vowed to veto all bills from the Legislature until a budget is passed. To further complicate the issue, August 16 is the deadline day for information to rnake it into the voter information book that is sent out by the Secretary of State. If the Governor vetoes the bill, the original form of the high-speed rail bond act will appear on the ballot as Proposition 1. Should he act after the August 16 deadline, it will likely have to appear on the ballot as Proposition 1A and a supplemental ballot pamphlet at greater cost to the state. At the time, the Governor has yet to act on this proposition. Memorandum of Understanding Sought - Action Postponed Although passage of a _$9 billion bond is far from certain and, possible construction still years off into the future, that hasn't stopped some interests from quickly acting to capitalize on the potential opportunities that this bond act could create. The San Diego Association of Governments (SANDAG) is keenly interested in evaluating the high-speed rail alignments that could serve San Diego County and Agenda Item 11 • • • 23 " h a s b e e n i n c o m m u n i c a t i o n w i t h t h e C H S R A , S a n B e r n a r d i n o A s s o c i a t e d G o v e r n m e n t s ( S A N B A G ) , t h e S a n D i e g o R e g i o n a l A i r p o r t s A u t h o r i t y , a n d t h e S o u t h e r n C a l i f o r n i a A s s o c i a t i o n o f G o v e r n m e n t s ( S L A G ) t o d e v e l o p a m e m o r a n d u m o f u n d e r s t a n d i n g ( M O U ) f o r p l a n n i n g s t u d i e s f o r w h a t i s d u b b e d a s t h e " L o s A n g e l e s t o S a n D i e g o v i a R i v e r s i d e C o r r i d o r .

To date, efforts include the 2006 grade separation funding strategy, the completion of the Multi -County Goods Movement Action Plan = a master plan for goods movement in the region, and the on -going Environmental Justice Analysis and Community Outreach Study effort — a three -county study reviewing the impacts of goods movement. An additional work effort was the submittal of applications to the California Transportation Commission securing $162.7 million in Proposition 1 B funds for 12 grade separations and the I-2151Van Buren Interchange project. Discussion: WRCOG recently received a grant of 070,000 from SCAG to advance the work it started in September 2006. To avoid duplication of work efforts, WRCOG approached the Commission to enter into a MOU to promote goods movement through the Inland Empire. In a letter dated May 30, 2008 from SCAG, SCAG confirmed WRCOG's request to coordinate work efforts by the two agencies and to include SCAG in a three -party MOU. Through preliminary discussions with WRCOG and SCAG, it is anticipated that the work product for the Inland Empire goods movement initiative will include the following elements: • Compendium of studies and accomplishments on goods movement as it relates to the Ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach and other points of entry in Southern California; • Workshop on goods movement to include an overview of goods movement projects, project status, and potential future funding sources from federal, state and local sources; and • Update of the Commission's 2007 goods movement video and circulation of the video to key federal legislators. Over the next several weeks, it is anticipated that the scope of work will be finalized to further refine agency responsibilities. Commission staff is requesting approval to enter into an MOU with WRCOG and SCAG to receive $56,000 of the $70,000 in SCAG funds as a "pass through" to conduct the work.
