Michael Baker conducted an extensive site visit during the preliminary study, and has reviewed the study to refamiliarize with the project. In general, Michael Baker agrees with the proposed upgrades outlined In Alternative SA1 and F1 of the preliminary study.

B. Value Engineering Summary. Following the detailed site visit, Michael Baker will analyze the selected aftematives to identify value engineering opportunities. Potential value engineering opportunities that have been Identified during the proposal phase are Included in the Understanding of Need. These opportunities, as well as others, will be evaluated at the time of the site visit. C. Project Coordination. Michael Baker will provide project management and coordination, and will prepare progress reports, schedules and invoices according to the City's requirements. It is assumed progress reports, schedules and invoices will be provided or updated monthly. Michael Baker will secure permits for site work during the Pre -Design and Design phases, Construction phase permitting Is excluded, as it is assumed this will be the responsibility of the Contractor. It is assumed there will be three (3) Progress Review Meetings (not including the preconstruction meeting, see Task M). D. Records. Utilities. & Facilities Research. Michael Baker will research existing utility information, record drawings, and field conditions as outlined in the RFP. During the Preliminary Study, no record drawings of the Flower PS were available, and it is assumed that Michael Baker will be responsible for field measurements of the existing pump station to the extent required to produce the construction documents. E. Environmental Clearance Document. Based on a review of the proposed improvements and existing setting, it is anticipated that a CEQA Categorical Exemption will apply to each lift station project. Michael Baker proposes to utilize the exemption under Section 15301, Existing Facilities, which allows for the minor alteration of an existing public facility. As such, Michael Baker will prepare a Notice of Exemption (NOE) as required under CEQA. The NOE will cite the CEQA Guidelines, Section 15301, Existing Facilities. The NOE will provide a brief project description, a description of the project site and affected area, graphics to support the project description/location, and substantiation for the exemption. fOICAN\noNAL 19 25B-70
