Section D Understanding of Need
Tetra Tech understands the City's goals to efficiently and effectively build and maintain all public streets,
storm drains, sewers, and water facilities in the City while protecting environmental resources. Tetra Tech
is very familiar with the City's current and planned public works projects including First Street
Improvements Project, Lincoln Avenue Pedestrian Pathway Project, Well 32 and Pipeline Project, and the
Washington Well Project.
Tetra Tech is committed to providing the City of Santa Ana a team that can demonstrate strong
performance in environmental services to meet all the demands of the anticipated projects and ultimately to
deliver a successful project.
Environmental stewardship must be a key component in the design and implementation of public works
projects. The CEQA and NEPA processes and requirements vary significantly from project to project
presenting unique challenges in ensuring compliance with all environmental regulations. Additionally, the
public comment periods can impact the processes thus lengthening schedules and increasing costs. Our
City of Santa Ana 7 TETRA TECH
PROPOSAL FOR
On -Call Environmental Services
RFP NO.: 21-105
team provides an experienced group who have prepared CEQA and NEPA documentation on similar types
of projects throughout Southern California.
Our public outreach and early intervention and collaboration with the public will assist in identifying red flag
community issues early in the project design process, providing the City and project design team the
opportunity to address the concerns through design or mitigation before the issues become intertwined with
the CEQA or NEPA processes thus speeding up the project adoption and compliance with all CEQA and
NEPA concerns.
Two primary qualities our team takes pride in is our attention to detail and breadth of professional
knowledge and experience of staff. The environmental analysts on our team work very closely with project
proponents, CEQA and/or NEPA lead agencies, and other regulatory agencies to ensure timely completion
of environmental documents and permits even under tight schedules. We know and understand the
importance of collaborating between the planning and design teams at the beginning of the projects design
life so that environmental impacts and constraints can be taken into consideration early in the planning
process.
Environmental Services
Tetra Tech assists clients in navigating the complex requirements of the CEQA and NEPA assessments
and documentation processes with a combination of activities.
► Project: thoroughly understanding project objectives, planning and design details, implementation
activities, and long-term operation and maintenance requirements.
► Environment: identifying all aspects of the local setting (both natural and engineered) that could
be affected by the proposed project, thereby providing an appropriate level of detail to evaluate
current conditions of resources and systems.
► Impacts: identifying and evaluating the potential intersection of project and environment to assess
the significance level of possible impacts.
At Tetra Tech, we begin at the earliest stage of a project by applying science to problems and developing
solutions tailored to the needs of our clients and the details of the project under evaluation. We continue to
support our clients throughout the entire project life cycle with consulting, engineering, construction
management, operations and maintenance, and IT services —offering these services individually or as part
of a full -service approach.
Environmental Documentation
The Tetra Tech Team has worked on numerous assessment contracts evaluating potential impacts from
proposed projects as lead for CEQA and NEPA document preparation, as the consultant responsible for
technical studies and resource surveys that support the impact assessments, and as the consultant
providing peer review of documentation. We can prepare all types of CEQA and NEPA documents from
CATEX through IS/Negative Declaration (ND) or MND, EA/Finding of No Significant Impact to EIR and EIS.
We have also prepared EIRs and EISs for large projects with greater potential environmental impacts and
a commensurate need for a higher level of assessment. The Tetra Tech Team has depth of experience in a
wide variety of public and private sector projects.
A summary of our general approach to environmental services projects is provided in Table 1. A more
detailed description of our approach to each task is provided in Section 2 of this Proposal.

Project Management
Tetra Tech has earned an excellent reputation among clients for accomplishing quality work within critical
time limits and on budget. Our approach to project management includes consistent communication and
feedback and the implementation of a project management plan that consistently tracks tasks, budgets,
schedules, and deliverables. We use our proven integrated project schedule tracking process. This process
facilitates "critical path" scheduling and provides solutions to attain final deliverable dates should the
schedule for any intermediate work element along the critical path slip. We ensure that the team assigned
to a project meets the two basic capacity requirements —sufficient number of appropriate and experienced
staff and an appropriate mix of qualifications and experience to perform the array of tasks within the scope
of work.
To maintain established schedules, we use monthly progress reports to identify upcoming critical paths.
The progress report is a monthly summary of all critical cost and schedule parameters, including analyses
City of Santa Ana 9 TETRA TECH
PROPOSAL FOR

of variances that exceed established thresholds and projections for at -completion budgets and cost
variances. The Project Management Team will control and monitor the project and will coordinate and
maintain regular contact with the City to communicate project status and progress. The Project
Management Team will identify and justify any unforeseen proposed schedule changes and will establish
internal due dates in advance of deadlines for deliverables to the City; this will provide ample time for
internal editorial and technical review.
Section E Relevant Project Experience
We believe the best reference of our experience is our past and current performance on these featured

SECTION 2 SCOPE OF SERVICES AND SCHEDULE
The following presents our general technical approach and work plan for environmental services tasks.
Project Initiation
In preparation for commencement of a project, the Tetra Tech Project Manager will attend a kickoff meeting
with the City within five working days of receiving a notice to proceed to coordinate the scope and schedule
for completing the document. At or before the kickoff meeting, the Project Manager will gather sufficient
details to prepare the description of the proposed project. These details may include: a full set of plans
including a site plan; elevations and cross sections; floor plans (if applicable); a detailed grading and
drainage plan indicating the limits of ground disturbance and grading volumes (cut, fill, and export/import);
landscape plans; and lighting plans. Other project description details may include construction timing and
phasing; construction equipment list; any other technical studies prepared for the project; and operation of
the project (e.g., associated traffic if known, details special events, etc.).
Tetra Tech will develop a draft description of the proposed project and alternatives (if necessary) and will
submit it to the City's Project Manager for review and approval. After receipt of City's comments, Tetra
Tech will finalize the description of the proposed project and alternatives.
Draft Initial Study and Required Technical Studies
The analysis of a project's potential environmental impacts will commence with the preparation of an IS.
The IS will be prepared according to CEQA requirements and the State CEQA Guidelines (Section 15063).
The most recent CEQA Environmental Checklist Form (Appendix G) will be used. Documentation for the
review of a project's potential environmental impacts follow a very prescriptive process that requires
consideration of 21 separate subject areas. Each of these subject areas must address its own set of

The preparation of an IS checklist includes completing all questions of the checklist with a written response
to, or evaluation of, the impacts considered by the questions for each subject area. The responses
provided in the IS will rely on information provided in separate technical studies prepared for the proposed
action, or other existing documentation applicable to the specific subject area. Generally, many questions
will not require an extensive or detailed discussion to provide appropriate scoring. However, it is our
experience that several subject areas usually require more extensive responses to the questions. These
include some combination of Air Quality/GHG, Cultural Resources, Noise, and Transportation; and, in
many cases can also extend to Aesthetics, Biology, Geology, and Hydrology.
Technical Studies
Aesthetic Resources. Conducting an objective, thorough, and well -illustrated visual resource assessment
is often a critical component of both public relations efforts and environmental review. It is a useful tool to
assist the public in understanding what a project will look like when placed in the environment. Tetra Tech
provides state-of-the-art visual impact studies that meet the technical and procedural needs of permitting
authorities, illustrating to stakeholders how the project would appear and from which angles it would be
visible. Our team is experienced with determining key observation points and providing analyses to
address concerns of sensitive viewers while meeting CEQA requirements. In addition, Tetra Tech has
extensive experience developing scientifically defensible photo simulations using project photography, GIS,
3D graphic design software, and visual simulation expertise.
Air Quality Study/Greenhouse Gas Assessment. Air assessments can address criteria pollutants, air
toxic emissions, climate change impacts (GHG), and health risks relative to project activities. Both the
construction and operation phases of projects can produce emissions of criteria pollutants which must be
evaluated, and time -phased quantities compared to allowable limits established by the governing air quality
management district for the project location. Tetra Tech is a leading provider of air quality services.
Company expertise includes the following services: air emissions impact assessments, air monitoring and
sampling, dispersion modeling and health risk assessments, GHG emissions inventory and certification,
permit application, regulatory analysis and support, stationary and mobile source testing, and technical
evaluation and demonstration of advanced control technologies.
Biological Resources Assessment. Botanical and wildlife species are commonly among the most
important resources evaluated under CEQA. Certainly, the presence of plants and animals on federal or
state Threatened or Endangered species lists will require even more intense review. Concern over
potential impacts to biological resources is often the basis for legal action which can cause project delays
or even cancellations. Therefore, it is critically important that all potentially important or significant species
associated with a project site or region are identified early, are evaluated using appropriate survey
protocols, and data are collected with methods designed to preserve accuracy and detail. Tetra Tech's
City of Santa Ana 16 TETRA TECH

team can provide standard Feld survey capabilities and special status species expertise that can be applied
to terrestrial plants and animals, wetlands areas, and avian species considerations.
Cultural Resources Study/Historical Resources Assessment. The Tetra Tech Team includes
experienced cultural resource managers with training in Anthropology and Archaeology, and experience in
community outreach, including outreach to Native American Tribes. Tetra Tech's archaeologists and
architectural historians have the national and regional expertise and experience to perform literature and
record reviews, conduct pedestrian and intensive surveys to identify and evaluate historic and prehistoric
properties. Our cultural resources staff exceed the Secretary of the Interior's Standard Qualifications for
History, Architectural History, and Archaeology, allowing us to provide archaeological and historic
architectural studies and reporting. Tetra Tech staff have also conducted site evaluations and, nominations
and monitoring following California Register of Historical Resources and National Register of Historic
Places criteria and guidelines. Tetra Tech has extensive experience working with the California State
Historic Preservation Office, conducting Tribal consultation, and experience with Section 106 of the
National Historic Preservation Act in conjunction with CEQA.
Hazards/Hazardous Materials/Environmental Site Assessments. A Phase I Environmental Site
Assessment (ESA) is a "due diligence" process, which identifies hazardous and potentially hazardous
conditions in and/or adjacent to the site. ESAs consist of record reviews and property research activities
and may include sampling of building materials. ESAs provide important information regarding property
value, liability issues, and redevelopment constraints. If recognized environmental conditions or known
environmental impairments are identified, a Phase II ESA may be conducted to determine the potential
nature and extent of contamination. Our ESAs consistently meet or exceed current American Standard
Test Method standards, agency requirements, and client expectations. Our services include: Phase I and II
ESAs, Resource Conservation and Recovery Act/Comprehensive Environmental Response,
Compensation, and Liability Act investigations, underground storage tank investigations, sediment/water
quality analysis, hazardous materials/hazardous waste assessment, health risk assessment, impact
assessments, soil and groundwater sampling, pilot testing and full-scale remediation.
Geology/Soils/Minerals Studies. Evaluating the possibility that a project could create unstable conditions,
or that the location of a project could elevate specific hazardous conditions for the completed development
(particularly if structures are involved) are among the effects considered by a geologic evaluation. Local
topography, proposed project grading, soil compaction requirements, and erosion potential all must be
considered to evaluate how a project might impact local geology and soils. The availability of mineral
resources in the project area must be determined to evaluate how a project might impact access to these
resources. Proximity to fault zones, areas with high liquefaction potential, and the prevalence of expansive
soils (containing certain clay types) all affect the potential that the local geology and soils could exacerbate
hazards for a project. Tetra Tech geologists and engineers are expert in evaluating and describing these
local conditions and can evaluate the ways in which geology, soils and mineral resources could impact, or
be impacted by, a project. Tetra Tech has broad experience with geotechnical projects ranging from
geotechnical investigation and materials testing to foundation design.
Hydrology/Water Quality Study. Water issues are of paramount consideration in southern California, and
CEQA assessment requires that both water quality and water supply (particularly relative to groundwater)
issues are evaluated. Tetra Tech is a leader in water analysis from an engineering perspective and from
an environmental perspective. We have experts in water supply engineering (including groundwater
extraction and water infrastructure design) and environmental evaluations. Tetra Tech can provide
technical studies to evaluate and provide clear and concise assessments of any aspect of potential
environmental effects from almost any imaginable project.
Noise Impact Study. Tetra Tech can evaluate and calculate noise and vibration levels expected during the
construction and operation phases of a project. Construction noise impact evaluations consider the
City of Santa Ana 17 TETRA TECH
PROPOSAL FOR
On -Call Environmental Services
RFP NO.: 21-105
construction activity, type of equipment to be used, equipment operational time, and the expected levels of
equipment noise and vibration. Operation noise impact evaluations consider noise generating operation
activities, including those associated with increases in traffic. The calculations are used to evaluate noise
and vibration levels for any identified sensitive receptors at their specific locations. Tetra Tech also
evaluates the noise impacts from the proposed project in accordance with the local (and applicable) noise
ordinance.
Utility Studies/Sewer Studies/Water Supply Assessment. Tetra Tech has supported various cities and
water agencies throughout Orange County on Utility/Sewer Studies and Water Supply Assessments
including Santa Ana, Huntington Beach, Orange, Anaheim, Tustin, Newport Beach, Mesa Water District,
South Orange County Wastewater Authority, Irvine Ranch Water District, and Moulton Niguel Water
District. These services include the preparation of Water and Wastewater Master Plans and
studies/analyses in support of infrastructure design projects.
Transportation. One of the primary ways a project causes impacts is through additional vehicular traffic
during the construction phase or during the operation phase (after construction). Therefore, the various
project components, such as parking supply, vehicular access, and project operation activities are all
important. Tetra Tech can tailor a transportation technical study to the proposed project, considering both
its construction requirements and anticipated operational activities in the context of its proposed location.
On -call Staff Consulting
Tetra Tech can provide the on -call specialized expertise and the depth of resources necessary to support
the City in quickly resolving environmental and technical issues and challenges.
Draft Environmental Document
Level of Documentation. If the screencheck draft IS identifies no potentially significant impacts, then a
Public Draft ND will be released to the public. If the screencheck draft IS identifies potentially significant
impacts that can be reduced to less than significant levels with implementation of mitigation measures (in
addition to the Best Management Practices), then a Public Draft MND will be released to the public.
Should the IS identify potentially significant impacts that cannot be fully reduced to less than significant levels
through the implementation of mitigation measures, or should the City reject the acceptance of any mitigation
measures, then significant residual impacts will occur and preparation of an EIR will be necessary.
Notices: Tetra Tech will prepare, as appropriate, the notices for the ND, MND, or EIR. A Notice of Intent
and a Notice of Completion (NOC) will be prepared for the Public Draft ND or MND. After the Final ND or
MND has been certified by the Lead Agency, a Notice of Determination (NOD) will be prepared.
Prior to the preparation of the Draft EIR, a Notice of Preparation will be prepared to serve as a scoping
document for the project. When the Public Draft EIR is ready for publication, a Notice of Availability (NOA)
and a NOC will be prepared. A NOA and a NOC will also be prepared for the Public Final EIR, when that
document if ready for publication. After the Final EIR has been certified by the Lead Agency, a NOD will be
prepared.
Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program _When mitigation measures are required, the Final
IS/MND or EIR will contain a Mitigation, Monitoring, and Reporting Program as an appendix that will be
revised with each version of the document.
Document and Notice Production and Circulation: Tetra Tech will support the City in developing a
mailing list for circulation of the public document. Tetra Tech has full in-house capabilities to produce the
large number of documents potentially required to circulate the Public Draft documents, including the ability
to produce large quantities of compact discs. Tetra Tech can provide full support in noticing for a public

RFP NO 21-105
document including, as appropriate, publication of notices in the newspaper, and posting of notices with the
County Clerk and the State Clearinghouse.
Public Involvement/Outreach: - Public involvement is a critical component of the CEQA process. We
develop thoughtful public involvement programs, compile mailing lists, prepare public notices, distribute
review documents, prepare outreach materials, develop web sites, and organize and facilitate public
meetings. Tetra Tech has extensive experience facilitating public meetings for scoping and draft document
hearings including preparing and conducting presentations.
Final Environmental Document: Upon receipt of public comments on the draft public document, Tetra Tech
will organize and bracket each comment for easy review by the City. Tetra Tech will meet with the City to
discuss the appropriate response to substantive comments. Tetra Tech will provide a draft response to each
comment in a response to comments table and will incorporate text changes into an administrative final
document, where necessary, in strikeout/double underline format for easy review. Tetra Tech will provide the
response to comments table and administrative final document to the City for review and comment.
Comments on the administrative final document will be incorporated into a screencheck final document.
Upon final decision -maker action on the final document, Tetra Tech will prepare a Final ND, MND, or EIR
documenting any changes to the document.
If Statements of Overriding Consideration and Findings of Fact are required for a project, Tetra Tech can
prepare a draft version of this document for review and comment.
NEPA Documents
A NEPA document would be required if there is a federal nexus such as federal funding provided for a
project. During project kick-off, Tetra Tech will meet with the City to determine if a NEPA document is
required, and if so, at what level. The types of NEPA documents that may be needed include: Categorical
Exclusion, EA/Finding of No Significant Impact, or EIS/Record of Decision. Below is a summary of the
general tasks to be completed for an EA or EIS, in conjunction with the appropriate CEQA document:
• Conduct project startup
• Set up administrative record database
• Initial coordination with the City and NEPA Lead Agency
• Prepare project description, purpose, need, and alternatives
• Prepare Notice of Intent
