The City intends to retain consultants on an as -needed <br />basis to perform professional services for a variety of <br />water resources engineering projects. The projects may <br />include water and sewer pipeline design, facility capital and <br />rehabilitation improvements, storm drain improvements, <br />and other related projects. On occasion, environmental and <br />planning support services may also be requested. Firms <br />selected for projects may need to include geotechnical, <br />electrical, mechanical, structural and other specific project <br />related services. <br />- Psomas professionals will provide in-house services for <br />civil/mechanical engineering, surveying, environmental, <br />and construction management. Psomas will retain subconsultants for all other <br />scope of service tasks listed in the RFP. A resource matrix, included on page 15, <br />identifies all scope tasks identified in the City's RFP and the team members who <br />will be responsible for execution of those tasks. <br />ISI: Envision Sustainability Rating System <br />We commend the City's continued efforts and commitment in regard to <br />implementation of sustainable projects. As a founding member of the Institute <br />for Sustainable Infrastructure (IS]) and key player in the development of ISI's <br />Envision rating system, Psomas has over 120 professionals credentialed as <br />ENV SPs (Envision Sustainability Professional). Maira Salcedo, PE, ENV SP, as <br />Psomas' Assistant Project Manager for the Walnut Pump Station Upgrade, was <br />responsible for nominating the project and ultimately obtaining a bronze level <br />award. Maira is also responsible for nominating the Well 29 Rehabilitation project <br />for an Envision award. <br />We look forward to assisting the City in any future efforts to construct sustainable <br />infrastructure projects and nominating them for potential Envision awards. While <br />not all projects will be appropriate for an Envision rating, Psomas endeavors <br />to incorporate sustainable elements in every infrastructure project we plan or <br />design. In order to demonstrate our approach to responding to a task order <br />request from the City of Santa Ana, we have provided on pages 16 and 17 a <br />typical scope of services and schedule for a sewer replacement project. <br />
