Mr.Matt Gruber <br /> Subject: Augustin Bernal Mountain Bike Trail Additional Services <br /> SCOPE OF WORK <br /> Additional IS/MND and Project Design Services <br /> TASK 4.2: INITIAL STUDY/MITIGATED NEGATIVE DECLARATION <br /> Dudek will utilize existing budget to complete text edits to the IS/MND to incorporate the additional <br /> information about trail decommissioning and biological protection measures. We request additional <br /> budget to provide for creating new figures to support the additional project design information and <br /> senior review of the text edits. <br /> TASK 5: PROJECT MANAGEMENT <br /> Dudek's Project Manager, Katherine Waugh, and Dudek's lead biologist, Sean O'Brien, will continue <br /> to work with the City to complete the CEQA process for this project. Mr. O'Brien will provide senior <br /> level review of the biological resource protection measures to be integrated into the project design. <br /> Ms. Waugh will coordinate field work and completion of edits to the Initial Study to reflect the <br /> additional details presented in the project design plans to better reflect the biological resource <br /> protection measures. Ms.Waugh will also continue to complete the Project Management tasks <br /> described in our existing contract. <br /> TASK 7A: FIELDWORK TO MAP TRAILS TO BE DECOMMISSIONED <br /> During previous fieldwork, mapping was only done for trails to be decommissioned where they <br /> intersected the main trail. In many cases,the portions of these trails not immediately adjacent to the <br /> main trail were not located, nor were the widths recorded, so the full extent and area of trails to be <br /> decommissioned can not be accurately determined from the available information. This information <br /> is needed to demonstrate that the trail decommissioning will fully mitigate for the proposed <br /> improvements to the main trail. <br /> To execute this task, Dudek's biologist will visit the park and record the alignments and approximate <br /> widths of the trails to be decommissioned using a GPS with sub-meter accuracy.This data will be <br /> differentially corrected to improve accuracy and will be incorporated into the project GIS data.The <br /> total area of trail to be decommissioned will be calculated.The data will also be imported into CAD to <br /> update the drawings. <br /> TASK 7B: CONSTRUCTION DRAWING UPDATE <br /> Dudek will update the Project construction drawings to incorporate the new data and add two <br /> additional sheets of protection measures to avoid impacts to Alameda whipsnake. Updated <br /> construction drawings will be delivered to the City in draft format for review and comment. <br /> Comments will be addressed and a final version of the construction drawings,signed and stamped <br /> by a landscape architect registered in the State of California, will be provided to the City in PDF <br /> format. <br /> DUDEK 2 November 2021 <br />
