FILE NUMBER
Authorize the City Manager to execute an agreement with Nichols Consulting Engineers to
provide pavement management consultant services for the two-year term beginning October 2,
2019, and expiring September 30, 2021, with an option for a one-year extension exercisable by
the City Manager and City Attorney, in the amount of $92,100 plus a 10 percent contingency of
$9,210, for a total amount not to exceed $101,310, subject to nonsubstantive changes approved
by the City Manager and City Attorney. The agreement will be funded by Measure M2 Local
Fairshare.
DISCUSSION
Approval of this recommended action will allow the City to retain professional services for
updating the City's Pavement Management Program (PMP). The PMP is an essential tool in
determining the condition, expected life, recommended improvements, and associated costs of
the City's pavement assets. The program enables the City to prioritize pavement rehabilitation
projects where they are most cost effective. In addition, an updated PMP is required for the City
to remain eligible for Orange County Transportation authority (OCTA) Measure M2 funding
programs, and to allow a reduced local match requirement for using those funds.
On July 16, 2019, the Public Works Agency released a Request for Proposals on the City's online
procurement portal, Planetbids for updating the City's Pavement Management Program. Three
proposals were received on August 6, 2019. The proposals were evaluated in a qualifications -
based selection and ranked by a review committee according to the criteria listed in the RFP.
Scoring criteria included firm and team experience, understanding of need, relevant project
experience, references, and schedule. The ranking of the firms is as follows:

The proposal by NCE demonstrated necessary labor capacity and deliverables to complete the
required services. The firm's rates are reasonable and within industry standard, the team
qualifications are appropriate for this program, and the proposal was found to provide the best
value for the City. The proposed fee, in the amount of $92,100, plus a ten percent contingency of
$9,210, yields a recommended not -to -exceed total contract amount of $101,310 (Exhibit 1).
A large proportion of the work under this agreement involves individual street assessments in the
field, and most of that work will take place during the current fiscal year. However, the firm must
be retained through 2022 for revisions to the Pavement Management analysis that may be
requested by OCTA, or by State and Federal grant funding agencies, as needed, in order to
assure the City maintains maximum funding eligibility.
The proposed services also include optional mapping and Geographic Information System (GIS)
support to help with the integration to the City's Asset Management System, currently under
implementation. The mapping and GIS will be compatible across all other infrastructure that is
being mapped for which the City is responsible.
STRATEGIC PLAN ALIGNMENT
Approval of this item supports the City's efforts to meet Goal #6 - Community Facilities &
Infrastructure, Objective #1 (establish and maintain a Community Investment Plan for all City
assets), Strategy A (develop a complete inventory of all assets to determine the scope of
improvements needed to sustain the City's current infrastructure investment), and Strategy F
(perform periodic measurements to monitor and update each asset's condition and ensure
adequate funding for repair and/or replacement costs in future budgets),
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT
There is no environmental impact associated with this action.
FISCAL IMPACT
Funding in the amount of $101,310 is available in the approved Fiscal Year 2019-20 Capital
Improvement Program (Project No. 20-6898), from the Measure M2 Program (Account No.
03217662-66220), for estimated expenditure as follows:

Pavement Design & Analysis
Pavement designs, plans, specifications, and
estimates (PS&E) for preventive maintenance,
rehabilitation, and reconstruction are NCE's
specialty and we offer extensive experience and
expertise with pavement treatment alternatives.
Our civil and geotechnical engineers not only
understand the types of pavements and
treatment options, they understand the significance and cost implications of proper roadway support on
competent subgrade soils to limit future settlement and cracking. Pavement design begins with an accurate
assessment of the existing structural adequacy. Unlike traditional civil firms who rely on core samples, we
employ our pavement survey expertise in conjunction with deflection data and materials testing to more
accurately assess the engineering properties of the existing roadway.
Sustainable and Innovative Pavement Technologies
There are numerous pavement rehabilitation techniques
available today with new binders, new additives, and
polymers that may be applied in various layers to preserve
pavement life. NCE constantly seeks to identify the most cost-
efficient alternatives for cities and counties, such as cold -in -
place recycling, full -depth reclamation, warm mix asphalt, and
terminal blend asphalt rubber binders. Many of the
technologies NCE can implement will meet the goals of the
City's Sustainable City Plan, even though specific pavement
strategies are not mentioned in the plan. Some examples of
cost-effective sustainable treatments are described in the
following paragraphs.

Sustainable Pavements - NCE is involved with projects at both the national and local levels on issues
such as sustainable pavements and premature failures. For example, Dr. Tom Van Dam is NCE's Principal
Investigator for the FHWA on Sustainable Pavement Systems. He has developed technical guidelines and
delivered a webinar series in 2015 on this subject.
Cool Pavements - NCE provided cool pavement testing in the
City to mitigate the urban heat island impact. NCE used an
albedometer that includes two separate pyranometers. The first,
located in a glass dome on the top of the unit, measures incoming
solar radiation. The second, located in a glass dome directly
beneath the first, measures radiation reflected off the pavement
surface. The ratio between the two measurements is the albedo
of the surface. The result is used to determine the use of
pavement alternatives, such as porous or permeable pavements,
pavers, concrete pavements, and use of light-colored aggregates.
Cool pavement is a road surface that uses additives to reflect solar
radiation, unlike conventional dark pavement. Conventional dark
pavements contribute to urban heat islands as they absorb 80 to
95 percent of sunlight and warm the local air. Conventional dark
140IN ,' Page 15

City of Santa Ana
Pavement Management Program Update RFP No, 19-070
August 6, 2019
pavements contribute to global warming because they radiate heat into the atmosphere. Cool pavements
are made with different surfaces to increase albedo, thereby reflecting ultraviolet radiation out of the
atmosphere. Increasing albedo reduces heat transfer to the surface and creates local cooling.
Composite Pavements — NICE worked for the Strategic Highway Research Program (SHRP2 R21) to
develop best practice standards for asphalt concrete (AC)/portland cement concrete (PCC) composite
pavements nationwide. This project resulted in the development of best practices in construction,
specifications, and quality management procedures for these pavements. NICE is currently teaching a
series of workshops for State Highway Agencies nationwide to assist them in implementing key best
practices for composite pavements. While this work was funded and ai
the fundamental concepts of composite pavements and the best ways
to implement them can be translated to cities, too.
Cold -in -place recycling (CIR) — A cost-effective alternative to
traditional mill and fill pavement treatments, cold -in -place recycling can
yield cost savings of as much as 30% by the use of existing AC
materials, which produces less truck hauling and better time efficiency
during construction. The technology involves milling of existing AC,
pulverizing, and processing it to a specified material size, adding
emulsion, mixing, and then placing and compacting it onto the roadway.
A thin AC overlay is typically placed as a smooth wearing course.
Longer pavement sections (generally at least 500,000 square feet of
pavement area) that require deeper mill and fills (typically at least three
inches) are good candidates for cold -in -place recycling with potentially
large cost savings.
Full -depth reclamation (FDR) — Full -depth reclamation is a process
that reconstructs failed AC pavements by recycling the existing
roadway materials. The old AC and aggregate base materials are
pulverized and mined using specialized equipment. The full -depth
reclamation method recycles the materials in -situ and can offer
significant cost savings over conventional roadway reconstruction
techniques. It is generally cost-effective for areas as little as 25,000
square feet.
City Owned Asset Collection
As an optional service (costs can be provided upon request), NICE can collect additional transportation
related asset information in the field concurrent with the pavement condition survey. Mobil data collection
units gather high -resolution 360-degree geo-referenced right-of-way street level digital imagery along with
3D point cloud data. Assets collected can include
curb/gutter, ADA compliance, streetlights, traffic signals
pavement markings, pavement, sidewalks, drainage
facilities, signage (including reflectivity), parking lots
bike trails, and pathways/walkways. a
We have and can work with the City to develop G` I(
customized condition rating standards where none exist. a
The data are entered into a database, either proprietary software, such as StreetSaverO, or custom
Page 16
25D-19
City of Santa Ana
Pavement Management Program Update RFP No. 19-070
August 6, 2019
databases developed by NCE. These are then analyzed to develop funding estimates for the future and
work plans. The results are typically presented in reports, AutoCAD maps, or GIS shape files.
Specialty Pavement Testing and Pavement Design Options
As an optional, added -value service (costs can be provided
upon request), NICE can perform non-destructive pavement
deflection testing to evaluate the subsurface or structural
capacity of the existing pavement on rehabilitation slated
streets. NCE owns and operates a Falling Weight
Deflectometer (FWD), which is a powerful device for
measuring the response of pavements under simulated
wheel loads and estimating their subsurface and structural
capacities. The test procedures are performed in accordance
with California Test Method (CTM) 356.
Deflection testing can quickly and cost-effectively measure
in -situ pavement section strength and can identify structural
deficiencies for a given traffic loading and future expected
traffic growth, which can help reduce the chance of under
designing or over designing pavement rehabilitation. Streets
identified for reconstruction can sometimes indicate that
reconstruction is not necessary and more cost-effective
rehabilitation alternatives are feasible. It should be noted that
FWD testing is time -sensitive and the data is only valid for
pavement design within two years of the testing.
Deflection testing must be correlated with knowledge of the pavement structural section (i.e., thickness of
AC and base) before meaningful analysis can be performed. Representative coring is budgeted on arterials
and collectors to provide this information following the clearing of utilities. The core holes are filled with
cold patch for AC roads and with rapid set grout for portland cement concrete roads.
NICE recently performed FWD testing, coring, analysis, and pavement design for the City of Lemon Grove,
and is currently providing similar services for the Montebello Grade Separation project's Haul Route in
Montebello.
Pavement and Civil Engineering
Street rehabilitation extends well beyond the pavement and often requires important considerations, such
as striping, curb and gutter repairs, pedestrian and bicycle improvements, signage, utility relocation,
drainage improvements, and ADA compliant curb ramps and sidewalks. NCE has developed outstanding
working relationships with our clients, implementing projects similar to the City's. NCE provides civil
engineering services on -time and designs that are technically innovative and highly cost-effective. NICE
has experience designing thousands of roads throughout California, including developing PS&E. We
thoroughly understand the impact recommended pavement designs can have on the roadway system.
Geotechnical Engineering
NCE's geotechnicai engineers understand the significance of proper support on competent subgrade soils
to limit damaging settlement and future cracking. For example, based on field exploration and soil/rock
laboratory testing, we are able to accurately assess the engineering properties and the presence of
4 °ONCE
Page 17
25D-20
City of Santa Ana
Pavement Management Program Update RFP No. 19-070
August 6, 2019
subgrade soils that might be soft and exhibit pumping under vehicle loads. We develop appropriate
subgrade stabilization techniques for problematic subgrade soils that may include moisture conditioning,
lime treatment, geotextiles, and/or over -excavation and replacement with aggregate materials. NICE
provides comprehensive geotechnical engineering services ranging from site investigation to thorough
review of plans and specifications, as well as critical follow up on services during construction.
GIS Analysis, Modeling, and Mapping
NCE staff have an in-depth knowledge and understanding of the geographic information system (GIS)
needs of public entities and the importance of geospatial data in making
critical resource, impact analysis, and management decisions. These
decisions require well thought out tools that allow for efficient management,
deployment, and dissemination of spatial data (both internal and external for
the public). Our experience with GIS development and analysis, cartography,
and asset management is extensive and includes projects for municipalities
across California and Nevada. Our services include mobile data collection,
integration with asset and PMS software, and detailed mapping capabilities
using ESRI and ArcGIS.
Specialized Training, Experience and Professional Competence
Our engineers and technicians have also undergone training on both software programs. We have
developed and conducted training for numerous cities and counties (both field distress and computer
training) for various transportation agencies, such as OCTA and MTC. NCE's pavement inspectors for this
project have been tested and prequalified through both the OCTA and the MTC "Inspector
Certification/Testing" programs. This cover both ASTM D6433 for PAVERTm and StreetSaver® distress
types. In addition, Ms. Lisa Senn attends a week-long PAVERT" training class every two years in order
become fully familiar with the latest software updates. This enables NICE to remain current in our

Various Pavement Managemenf: Program Studies,Orange County Transportation Authority (OCTA) (1997 - Current)
Services provided: NCE has
worked with OCTA since 1997
on various projects related to
pavement management
programs (PMP). There are over
6,500 centerline miles of paved
streets and roads in Orange
County, which serves a
population of almost three
million. In 1990, voters approved
a V2 cent sales tax measure for
transportation improvements.
This measure was subsequently
renewed in 2007 and is
expected to sunset in 2041. In order for the 35 Cities/County to be
eligible for Measure M funds, OCTA required them to implement and
maintain a pavement management system to select projects for
rehabilitation. Over the past 12 years, NCE has worked with OCTA to
provide guidelines and recommendations on how this may be
accomplished.

Countywide Assessment of Existing & Future Pavement Needs — In 2006, NCE completed a study to
assess the existing and future pavement conditions of the roadways operated and maintained by the 34
cities in Orange County and the County of Orange over the next twenty years. The overall goal of the study
was to determine the pavement condition deficiencies as well as to quantify the investment needed to bring
the deficiencies to various levels of improvement. The project required collecting PMP data from local
agencies, normalizing the pavement condition ratings, normalizing the maintenance and rehabilitation
(M&R) strategies with associated unit costs, and normalizing the "trigger points" requiring a specific M&R
strategy.
Countywide PMP Guidelines — In 2010, NCE assisted OCTA in developing countywide guidelines for the
PMP. This is to ensure consistent data collection procedures for all 34 jurisdictions so that funding
allocations may be made on an "apples to apples" comparison.
PAVERTM & StreetSaver' Training Workshops (2011-2018) — NCE has developed and conducted the
training workshops for PAVERTM on both pavement distress and software training for OCTA since 2011.
Generally, the two-day training workshops in the fall are focused on pavement distress data collection as
per ASTM D6433-11; the spring workshops are focused on the StreetSaver® and PAVERTM software and
report submittals for OCTA, respectively. In 2016, OCTA added StreetSaver® to the workshop.
Over 100 city and county personnel have been trained to ensure that they were familiar with the PAVERTM
software as well as OCTA's requirements for the countywide pavement management program. The
feedback from ALL respondents indicated that the workshop was "good/excellent".

Prior to the kick-off meeting, NCE will prepare a detailed agenda, which will be sent to City staff for review.
In addition, NCE will schedule additional meetings with City staff at appropriate milestones to review the
work performed, survey progress, and to address any questions or issues that arise. NCE is also available
upon request of the City's staff to assist with preparing materials and presentations for City Council
meetings or any public meetings.
2.2 — Pavement Condition S
NCE will perform walking pavement condition surveys
on the City's MPAH pavement network,
approximately 105 sections centerline miles. In
addition, NCE will perform walking surveys for
complete Local network will be performed on 317
centerline miles (approximately 3,992 segments) of
streets Like many Southern California communities,
the distresses present are reflective of the traffic
levels, as well as the local environment and climate.
Common distresses include alligator cracking, rutting,
distortions, patches and utility cuts, as well as
weathering and raveling (examples shown left).
There are three types of distress surveys that
agencies and consultants have performed for
pavement management programs, and each has its
advantages and disadvantages. Briefly, these are:
Walking Surveys — These are performed with one -person crews (for high
volume streets like expressways or major arterials, two -person crews may be
needed for safety). The major advantage of this survey method is that it is
highly accurate, since cracks and all other pavement distresses are measured
and recorded. However, walking surveys are more labor-intensive and are
thus more expensive than windshield surveys. OCTA recommends this
method for the MPAH.
Windshield Surveys — These are performed with two -person crews in a
vehicle traveling at low speeds (under 15 mph). The major advantage is that
100% of the roadway is surveyed, and it can be accomplished very quickly,
safely and inexpensively. However, the disadvantage is that the data
collected tends to be of variable quality. In particular, low -severity distresses
are typically not visible from a moving vehicle. This results in a higher than
expected condition rating of the streets, and consequently, a lower estimate of the backlog and pavement
M&R needs. OCTA accepts windshield surveys for local roads.
Automated Surveys — These are typically performed with a customized vehicle that is equipped with a
video or digital camera and/or laser bars. The major advantage is thatthey are equipped to perform surveys
very quickly and safely. However, post -processing time can offset cost -savings in the field, and the quality
of the data can be variable depending on light conditions (e.g., tree -lined streets with contrasts in light and
dark) because shadows can mask some distresses. Typically, only the outer travel lanes are surveyed,
and for most residential streets, only one lane is surveyed. No parking lanes are included, which eliminates
Page 118
25D-31
City of Santa Ana
Pavement Management Program Update RFP No. 19-070
August 6, 2019
distresses such as tree root distortions, edge cracking, oil spots from parked cars etc. The PCI can be
either lower or higher than walking surveys, depending on the types of distresses. Finally, these vehicles
are expensive to purchase (typically over $100,000 per) and unless the City wishes to be tied to one vendor
for future PMS updates, this option is not usually recommended.
NICE recommends walking surveys for MPAH and Locals to maintain continuity of survey methods.
This was the methodology in 2017.
41 OCTA recommends walking surveys for MPAH roadways.
10 Walking surveys are more accurate and better capture the distresses caused by the higher
increased traffic and loading.
43 Windshield surveys for the Alley network is sufficient. NCE will provide costing for this method.
Therefore, NICE will perform walking pavement condition surveys in
accordance with the established standards as per ASTM D6433-11. A
minimum of one sample unit per section will be inspected.
Approximately one sample unit will be inspected for each 1,000 lineal
feet of roadway. Any variation from the established procedures will be
to accommodate unique local conditions, e.g., gap -graded texture of
rubberized asphalt concrete overlays, chip seals over Portland cement
concrete pavements, etc. These conditions typically exhibit unique
distresses that may not be reflected in any distress manual, so special
exceptions will need to be made. Any areas which are not typical of the
entire section will be inspected and recorded as a special sample unit.
High severity bleeding
Our scope of work and condition surveys do not address issues including, but not limited to traffic, safety
and road hazards, geometric issues, road shoulders, sidewalks, curb and gutters, drainage issues or short-
term maintenance that should be performed.
NCE will be responsible for providing all equipment necessary for performance of this task. Should City
personnel wish to observe NCE's crews during the surveys, we will be more than happy to accommodate
the City. Individual city staff may also accompany NCE's field crews for up to a half day each — to gain
hands-on training at no additional cost to the City. We have found that this is the most effective training
method for agency staff, as they become part of the data collection crew, rather than just an observer.
Data Entry and PCI Calculations
The distress data will be recorded on tablets once the surveys are complete.
We will be responsible for providing all equipment necessary for performance
of this task. The data will receive random quality control checks to ensure that
it is complete and accurate.
Quality Control
Quality management practices for pavement management suggest that a
one-time survey of the final data are typically inadequate and involve a high
risk of failure. Quality Control (QC) checks are critical on a project such as
this. As part of NCE's goal to provide a superior quality product for our clients,
we incorporate a QC component into all of our projects. For this project, we
have proposed the inclusion of a QC Manager, Mr. James Signore, as noted
in our Project Organization chart. Mr. Signore will have the following project responsibilities:

NCE will next perform a Budget Needs analysis using an
analysis period to be determined by the City (assumed to be
seven years per the RFP, although this can be as long as 30
years). This will identify M&R requirements for each road
section and determines the total maintenance and
rehabilitation requirements over the entire analysis period. The
Needs Analysis identifies road sections that need treatment
and applies the M&R decision tree to each section. The costs
are then summed for the entire period. This forms the basis for
performing Budget Scenario evaluations, which optimize the
street sections for repair under constrained budgets.
In simple terms, the Budget Needs analysis answers the questions:
"If unlimited funding is available for street maintenance and repair, which streets should the City fix?"
"When should the City fix them?"
"What treatments should the City apply?"
"How much will it cost?"
The Budget Scenarios evaluation prioritizes sections for repair under constrained, realistic, budgetary
assumptions.
This module answers the question:
"If the City has only limited funds for street maintenance and repair, which streets have the highest priority for repairs,
when should the City perform the repairs, and how much will it cost?"
Multiple budget or target -driven scenarios will be performed after discussion with City staff. Examples of
typical scenarios include:
l Impacts of existing funding levels
¢0 Impacts to model drops in funding, e.g. drop in Measure M revenues if a recession occurs
s° Forecast PCI's for all sections for seven years
4' Funding required to maintain certain PCI levels (as per OCTA requirements)
e1 Funding analyses by community or maintenance zone
NCE will then prepare a final report that summarizes the overall condition of the City's pavement network,
the M&R strategies used by the City, the results of budgetary analyses, and different budget scenarios and
recommendations on the recommended scenario with selected road sections for maintenance and
rehabilitation. In addition to the City's requirements, this report will meet OCTA's Measure M2
reauirements, as outlined by the OCTA PMP Template.

The funding analysis depends on accurate data, notjust field condition data but also relevant and accurate
maintenance strategies and costs.
Therefore, as an optional task, NCE will first review maintenance and rehabilitation (M&R) strategies with
City staff. This will include the recommendation and selection of appropriate treatments such as cape seals
or overlays, and the determination of treatment unit costs. This will also be an appropriate time to review
the use of new/sustainable treatments or materials, such as rubberized asphalt, rubberized chip or cape
seals, microsurfacing, rejuvenators, cold -in -place recycling, full depth reclamation, warm mix asphalt, etc.
NCE's experience in pavement engineering and design, as well as local conditions, allows our staff to be
able to provide the City with solutions that are innovative, sustainable, practical, and workable.
The development of a M&R decision tree is a critical step in any pavement management update as it has
a direct and significant impact on the final work plan that is developed, as well as the budgeting sequence
and ultimate consequences.
The M&R alternatives are used to determine effective treatments for each street section based upon
criteria such as condition, pavement type, and functional class. Once these M&R alternatives are defined,
a treatment unit cost will be determined for each alternative. These alternatives and costs will then be
entered into the PMP database for budgetary analyses.

alternative and the alternatives and costs are then be entered into the PMP database for budgetary
analyses.
The unit costs will have a huge impact on the City's projections or needs assessments. Therefore, NCE
will review any recent bid tabs, together with those from neighboring cities as appropriate. Also, unit prices
will be fully loaded rates, and will include not just contractors' prices, but also design, survey and testing
costs.
Deliverables:
1 Updated M&R decision tree
Task 2.48 — Update Maintenance and Rehabilitation History (Optional Tas
Updating the M&R history in the StreetSaver database can be extremely useful, particularly for pavement
preservation strategies such as slurry seals. Unlike PAVER, the StreetSaver program will adjust the PCI
accordingly, and the prediction models will reflect these activities so as to more accurately reflect the future
condition.
