in the PMP. SOJ will assume the lead in preparing the PMP with strong support from Cordoba and URS in terms of coordinating with and confirming the sponsoring agencies' participation and roles in the management leadership structure. The PMP will be consistent with 49 CFR USC 5327 and 49 CFR 633. SOJ has successfully managed the implementation of the first two modern streetcar systems in the U.S. using efficient project management plans resulting from a development practice rather than a transportation engineering practice, completing these projects within ambitious timelines and budgets. Under SOJ leadership, the Portland Streetcar Loop federal project submitted its PMP to FTA under its Small Starts application and successfully received its award. Buy -in and commitment from the sponsoring agencies regarding their integration with the project team and their roles in leadership and accountability was key to their success. The development of the PMP will be heavily influenced by decisions and agreements between the cities of Santa Ana and Garden and OCTA with respect to the ownership and operational management of the system. Cordoba and SOJ will consult with the cities and OCTA as they work toward agreements on these fundamental aspects of the project, and be fully prepared to develop a strong and compelling PMP based on the outcome. B. Tong, C. Higley, D. Levinsohn One electronic and 12 hard copies of the draft and the final PMP Task 3 - Safety & Security Management Plan (SSMP) Another element required to accompany the federal application, the SSMP will be prepared by SOJ with support from URS. The System Safety and Security Plan is actually two plans (Safety and Security). The SOXURS team prepared both plans for the entire Portland Streetcar system including the federally funded project (Loop), and SOJ continues to maintain the SSMP through Portland Streetcar Inc. operations. These documents include approaches to construction as well as the operation of the system. The format will include all of the elements listed in the RFP to comply with 49 CFR 633 and FTA Circular C 5800.1 Task 4 - Fleet Management Plan (FMP) The FMP will be prepared by SOJ with support from URS, using the successful FMP format that was developed for the Portland Streetcar Loop application. Portland's FMP is used to guide the current vehicle fleet operations for Portland Streetcar Loop under SOJ's direct management. The vehicle to be used for the Santa Ana -Garden Grove Fixed Guideway has yet to be selected. Unlike Portland, Santa Ana and Garden Grove will need to comply with the requirements of the California Public Utilities Commission. The vehicle used in Portland does not currently meet CPUC standards. To date, only the Seimens S70 light rail transit vehicle complies with CPUC standards, while providing physical and operating characteristics similar to modern streetcars. The CPUC is aware of the broad interest in modern streetcar throughout California and has indicated a willingness to revisit their standards and vehicle requirements in light of modern streetcar operating characteristics differing from traditional LRT. Continued attention to this issue will be required as the project continues to advance so that a viable vehicle can be identified. However, for the purposes of this effort, a Draft Fleet Management Plan will be prepared until such time a a vehicle is selected. Real-time, current operating and financial data from the Portland streetcar operations, coupled with input from OCTA, will be used to inform accurate assumptions for the Santa Ana — Garden Grove project. The FMP will be formatted consistently to conform to FTA Circular 9030.1 D. Section Three — Work Plan 32
