(Low Moderate Housing Funds). PREPARED BY: Patricia Beard PHONE: 4255 EXPLANATION: DEPARTMENT: Redevel APPROVED BY: t/S ecial Projects The Disposition and Development Agreement ("DDA") for the Westside Infill Transit Oriented Development ("WI-TOD") requires the CDC to remediate environmental hazards from the project site, including the National City Public Works yard and former Illes Family Trust site (2200 and 2020 Hoover Avenue). Working with the project's State Regulator, the California Department of Toxic Substances Control, it has been determined that the best method of preparing the site for the affordable housing and park expansion planned is through the preparation and implementation of a Property Mitigation Plan ("PMP"). Since 2007, E2 Managetech has been assisting the CDC to understand environmental conditions within the Westside Specific Plan area and the WI-TOD site and, in conformance with the DDA, has prepared a draft PMP, currently under discussion with the selected developers. The proposed contract would provide for E2 Managetech to assist the CDC in finalizing the PMP, obtain approval from the DTSC and implement site remediation and regulatory closure. The scope and cost of said services has been determined to be reasonable and appropriate by staff.

OF THE CITY OF NATIONAL CITY (Corporation— signatures of two corporate officers) By: Ron Morrison, Chairman Glenn Mayer (Print) Principal and CEO (Title) APPROVED AS TO FORM: (t Claudia Gacitua Silva CDC General Counsel CDC's Standard Agreement —June 2008 revision 10 Julie Moe -Reynolds (Print) Principal and CFO (Title) CDC and E2 Managetech Solutions EXHIBIT "A" ManageTech a 0 LUTI August 8, 2011 G7 N S Ms. Pat Beard Community Development Commission of National City 1243 National City Boulevard National City, California 91950 VIA EMAIL: pbeard(ci.national-city.ca.us Subject: Proposal — Professional Environmental Oversight Services for the Clean-up and Closure of the Transit Oriented Development Area 2100 Hoover Avenue Nationals City, California Dear Ms. Beard: E2 ManageTech, Inc. (E2) is submitting this proposal and cost estimate to provide professional program management and technical support services to the Community Development Commission (CDC) of National City for environmental clean-up and closure of the Transit Oriented Development (TOD) area. In support of the TOD project, E2 recently prepared a Property Mitigation Plan that will be submitted to the California Environmental Protection Agency (Cal -EPA) Department of Toxic Substances Control (DTSC) for its review and approval. The PMP provides a roadmap for completing environmental investigations and remediating services for portions of the TOD area where known chemicals of concern have previously been released to the subsurface (i.c., Mitigation Areas). Results of the PMP indicate that eight Mitigation Areas were identified and steps or procedures for addressing each of the Mitigation Areas are presented in the PMP. E2 proposes to complete the following scope of work to support the CDC with implementing the PMP: 12396 World Trade Dr., Suite 314, San Diego, California 92129* (858) 217-5306 a fax (858) 217-5310 www.e2managetech.com Ms. Pat Beard Community Development Commission of National City July 18, 2011 Page 2 of 5 Scope of Work: Task 1 — Finalize the PMP The CDC agreed to allow the Developer to review and provide comments to the PMP. A working draft copy of the PMP was submitted to the Developer on June 22, 2011. The Developer has since hired an environmental consultant (Environ) to review the PMP and other supporting documentation. For this task, E2 will coordinate, clarify, and update the PMP per comments received from the Developer and its environmental consultant. Prior to updating the PMP, all revisions will be coordinated with the CDC and its legal counsel to insure that the suggested revisions are appropriate and consistent with the contract documentation between the CDC and Developer. Task 2 - Developer and Regulatory Agency Coordination • Coordinate and participate in periodic meetings and conference calls with the CDC, regulatory agencies, Developer, legal counsel (i.e., Opper & Varco), or other project representatives. This effort includes preparing for the meetings, preparing meeting notes, and implementing possible action items. • Maintain and update project/development schedule. • Prepare written responses to Developer/Agency requests for information (RFI). • Provide 3-party technical review of documentation that would be prepared by Developer environmental consultant, geotechnical engineers, civil engineers, etc. • Prepare and submit technical white papers as requested. Task 3 — Mitigation Oversight Services • Provide program management support necessary to implement the PMP. This includes procuring necessary subcontractors (e.g., geophysical survey, drillers, mobile and fixed analytical laboratories, and/or waste disposal companies), scheduling field activities, maintaining project budgets, and submitting project updates and progress reports to the CDC. • Of these seven Mitigation Areas identified in the PMP, five require further investigation to delineate the extent of contamination as assess appropriate removal action alternatives. E2 will coordinate the environmental investigation activities associated with each of the mitigation areas. These coordination efforts will include preparing work plan Ms. Pat Beard Community Development Commission of National City July 18, 2011 Page 3 of 5 memoranda that will be submitted to DTSC for its review and approval. The work plan memoranda will supplement the information provided in the PMP by providing more detail associated with the field activities that will be implemented to investigate each of the mitigation areas. Task 4 — UST and Clarifier Removal • Coordinate and maintain management of the existing UST in accordance with the Department of Environmental Health (DEH) and National City Fire Department requirements. Until the tank is removed, these agencies require monthly monitoring and reporting of the UST and dispensing system. It is currently estimated that the UST will be removed during the month of October 2011. • Prepare a bid specification for procuring and assist the CDC with procuring an UST removal contractor. This bid specification will also include provisions to removal the oil water separator located in the north end of the Illes property. During the UST removal activities, E2 will oversee the UST/oil water separator removal contractor's work to ensure that the work is completed in accordance with the bid specifications and applicable UST removal laws and regulations. • E2 will also coordinate the collection of confirmation soil samples that will be collected to assess whether the UST and/or clarifier leaked hazardous substances to the subsurface. • After the results of the confirmation samples are received, E2 will prepare a UST/Clarifier Closure report that will be submitted to DEH for its review and approval. Task 5 — Hazardous Building Materials Survey and Building Demolition • Conduct hazardous building material surveys of on -site structures that would be demolished and/or renovated under the TOD project. • Prepare hazardous building material mitigation specifications • Prepare demolition bid specifications. • Assist the CDC with procurement efforts needed to retain a demolition and hazardous building materials contractor. • Provide field oversight support during hazardous building materials mitigation activities and site demolition. Depending on the findings of the hazardous building material survey, these services may include air monitoring and inspection of the mitigation contractor's work. Task 6 — Characterization and Off -Site Disposal of Stockpiled Soil Ms. Pat Beard Community Development Commission of National City July 18, 2011 Page 4 of 5 • E2 will identify an appropriate off -site landfill or approved area to transport and dispose of the stockpiled soil located adjacent to Paradise Creek Park. • After an appropriate disposal facility is identified and approved, E2 will coordinate and procure excavation, transportation, and disposal services for the stockpiled soil that is located near Paradise Creek. • During the stockpile loading and disposal activities, E2 will provide personnel to monitor the progress and field activities of the loading and transporting contractor to ensure that volumes are counted and work is completed in accordance with the bid specifications. • After the soil is removed, E2 will collect confirmation soil samples to confirm that the stockpile soil has not impacted the "native" soils. SCHEDULE AND COST Based on the project schedule that was provided by the Developer in an email message dated June 1, 2011, it is estimated that the environmental support services would be provided through approximately December 2012 when DTSC approves the completion of the PMP and issues its No Further Action letter for the TOD area. Based on this time period it is estimated that our services would be needed for an approximate period of eighteen (18) months. Since the level of effort associated with each of the activities discussed above cannot be clearly defined at this time, E2 estimates that its team will provide approximately 40 hours per month of consulting services. For this project, E2 will continue to provide National City our reduced fee schedule for which the Project Principal, Daryl Hernandez, will be billed at a rate $160 per hour and a Project Manager, who is well versed in engineering, geology, and remediation, will be billed at $120 per hour. Therefore, we are proposing to provide the programmatic oversight services described above for $98,000 (i.e. approximately 40 hours per month of combined labor hours over 18 months) on a time and material basis. A copy of our fee schedule for this project is provided as an attachment to this proposal. In order to manage the effort and costs throughout the project, E2 will provide a detailed monthly summary that will describe the (1) work completed, (2) anticipated work for the next month, (3) list of deliverables provided, and (4) early identification of possible issues that could impact the project schedule or redevelopment decisions. In the event that additional E2 services Ms. Pat Beard Community Development Commission of National City July 18, 2011 Page 5 of 5 are needed during the 18 month period, E2 will provide a letter proposal that will describe the services to be provided and a detailed cost proposal prior to initiating work. If there are any questions with respect to this cost estimate, please contact me at (858)217-5306. Very truly yours, E2 ManageTech, Inc. Daryl Hernandez Daryl Hernandez, P.E.
