Mr. Mike Tassano <br /> S� Mrh 5,2014 <br /> _ March 25,2014 ton <br /> Page 2 <br /> B k F If requested,BKF will make site visits and meet with City or Caltrans staff or identify any work <br /> that does not conform to or is not following the intent of the contract PS&E documents. Written <br /> job site reports will be prepared and submitted to the City within three working days of the job <br /> site visit if any conflicts or problems are identified during each jobsite visit. Any unsafe condition <br /> ENGINEERS observed by BKF that poses an immediate threat to human health or life must be reported <br /> immediately to the City's representative. BKF's personnel and equipment shall be incompliance <br /> SURVEYORS With all current Caltrans construction safety policies and procedures when visiting the jobsite. <br /> PLANNERS <br /> BKF and its subconsultants will prepare as-built project plans by converting Contractor prepared <br /> red-line plans into the contract electronic files in Microstation Format. All sheets will be marked <br /> with an "as-built" stamp. The plans will meet Caltrans standards and procedures for creating <br /> electronic as-built sheets. <br /> The construction assistance effort for this phase of the Project is estimated at $46,000. This <br /> budget amount constitutes only a budgetary amount and the actual level of effort to be expended <br /> will depend upon the amount of Contractor and City queries, construction decisions by the <br /> Construction Inspector, the amount of changes which impact as-builts, and the level of effort <br /> requested by City. Therefore the budget is only an estimate and could vary from this value. <br /> Should the level of effort exceed the estimated budget, BKF will consider the additional effort as <br /> extra work and will request authorization for additional funds beyond the budgets identified <br /> herein. <br /> Archaeological Monitoring Program during Roadway Construction <br /> The approved Historic Resources Compliance Report dated April 2013 requires Archaeological <br /> Mitigation Monitoring during construction. Archaeological monitoring is the controlled <br /> observation and regulation of construction operations during ground disturbing construction <br /> within the Project boundary identified as sensitive during the testing program in order to prevent <br /> or minimize adverse effects to the cultural resource. This work can be performed by BASIN and <br /> would include the following scope. <br /> Archaeological monitoring for the Project will focus on any ground altering/earth moving <br /> activities. It is anticipated that full-time monitoring will be undertaken in all areas where there is <br /> a potential to affect non-disturbed native sediments(e.g.,below any introduced fill). <br /> Monitoring will be conducted by a Monitoring Archaeologist assigned by BASIN with <br /> appropriate regional experience. The Monitoring Archaeologist will have the authority to <br /> temporarily halt construction operations if cultural resources are present and if they will be <br /> adversely affected by continuing construction operations. Work may be redirected to other <br /> locations outside of the find zone. NOTE: Basin Research Associates' Senior Staff will be <br /> available via telephone in the event of an unexpected discovery for review.Typical response time <br /> should be within 60 minutes depending on traffic. <br /> This phase of work is difficult to accurately estimate as it dependent on what is found in prior <br /> phases and the contractor's operations and schedule, but a budget of$39,600 can be used as a <br /> place holder budget. This assumes an archaeologist and a Native American monitor for 24 days <br /> 4670 O® au of ground disturbing work within the Project archaeological site. <br /> ■ii 111250 <br /> ■iuoian.nui■ <br /> 94588 <br /> 00 925.396.7700 <br /> ®925.396•.7799 <br /> CEDEEITIIID <br />
