Section 3. General Scope of Services Page 13 <br />IApproach for Technical Support Services <br />As discussed previously in this SOQ, Jones & Stokes has the technical capacity to address nearly <br />every environmental issue that arises. We will prepare appropriate technical reports to support <br />environmental documentation or as stand-alone studies, as necessary. These may include but would <br />not be limited to the following: <br />I ■ Aesthetics/visual resources (light and glare, shade/shadow studies). <br />■ Air quality. <br />■ Biology (plants/wildlife, aquatic, wetland). <br />I■ Cultural resources (archaeology/architectural history/paleontology). <br />i ■ Geology/soils. <br />■ Hazardous materials. <br />■ Hydrology and water quality. <br />■ Land use/policy analysis. <br />■ Mineral resources. <br />■ Noise/acoustics/vibration. <br />■ Population/housing/socioeconorrcs/environmental justice. <br />■ Public services and utilities. <br />■ Traffic/circulation/parking. <br />General Time Schedule <br />The schedule for any given project will vary based on complexity of the project, number and <br />magnitude of technical studies that may be required, public controversy, and review requirements. <br />Additionally, where NEPA is involved, the City is subject to the federal lead agency's staff <br />availability, review schedules, and other factors beyond the City's control that will impact the <br />schedule. In general terms, the following represents a range in the possible schedules for different <br />environmental processes: ' <br />■ Negative Declaration/Mitigated Negative Declaration: 60 days-4 months <br />■ Environmental Assessment/FONSI: 4 —6 months <br />■ EIR: 6 months-1 year <br />■ EIS: 1 year-18 months (depending on federal lead agency) <br />Fees <br />Comparable to the variability in schedules for the different environmental processes, the fees <br />associated with the reviews will also vary based on complexity of the project, number and magnitude <br />QY of Sena Ana r^�. ,Nnf 21, 2007 <br />SOOf" EnrimnnrenadCo,...
