damages, costs (including, without limitation, attorney's fees),
injuries, or liability, arising out of this Agreement, or its
performance, except for such loss or damage arising from
CITY's sole negligence or willful misconduct. Should CITY be
named in any suit, or should any claim be brought against it

Page 5of11
Agreement No. 5816
MASSIGNABILITY. This Agreement is for CONSULTANT's professional services.
CONSULTANT's attempts to assign the benefits or burdens of this Agreement without
CITY's written approval are prohibited and will be null and void.

similar service to be performed for other employers while under contract with CITY.
CONSULTANT is not an agent or employee of CITY and is not entitled to participate in
any pension plan, insurance, bonus or similar benefits CITY provides for its employees.
Any provision in this Agreement that may appear to give CITY the right to direct
CONSULTANT as to the details of doing the work or to exercise a measure of control
over the work means that CONSULTANT will follow the direction of the CITY as to end
results of the work only.
21.AUDIT OF RECORDS. CONSULTANT will maintain full and accurate records with
respect to all services and matters covered under this Agreement. CITY will have free
access at all reasonable times to such records, and the right to examine and audit the
same and to make transcript therefrom, and to inspect all program data, documents,
proceedings and activities. CONSULTANT will retain such financial and program
service records for at least three (3) years after termination or final payment under this
Agreement.
22. INSURANCE,
A. Before commencing performance under this Agreement, and at all other
times this Agreement is effective, CONSULTANT will procure and
maintain the following types of insurance with coverage limits complying,
at a minimum, with the limits set forth below:
Tvr)e of Insurance
Commercial general liability:
Professional Liability
Business automobile liability
Workers compensation
Limits
$2,000,000
$1,000,000
$1,000,000
Statutory requirement
B. Commercial general liability insurance will meet or exceed the
requirements of the most recent ISO -CGL Form. The amount of
insurance set forth above will be a combined single limit per occurrence
for bodily injury, personal injury, and property damage for the policy
coverage. Liability policies will be endorsed to name CITY, its officials,
Page 6 of 11
Agreement No. 5816
and employees as "additional insureds" under said insurance coverage
and to state that such insurance will be deemed "primary" such that any
other insurance that may be carried by CITY will be excess thereto. Such
endorsement must be reflected on ISO Form No. CG 20 10 11 85 or 88, or
equivalent. Such insurance will be on an "occurrence," not a "claims
made," basis and will not be cancelable or subject to reduction except
upon thirty (30) days prior written notice to CITY.
C. Professional liability coverage will be on an "occurrence basis" if such
coverage is available, or on a "claims made" basis if not available. When
coverage is provided on a "claims made basis," CONSULTANT will
continue to renew the insurance for a period of three (3) years after this
Agreement expires or is terminated. Such insurance will have the same
coverage and limits as the policy that was in effect during the term of this
Agreement and will cover CONSULTANT for all claims made by CITY
arising out of any errors or omissions of CONSULTANT, or its officers,
employees or agents during the time this Agreement was in effect.
D. Automobile coverage will be written on ISO Business Auto Coverage Form
CA 00 01 06 92, including symbol 1 (Any Auto).
E. CONSULTANT will furnish to CITY duly authenticated Certificates of
Insurance evidencing maintenance of the insurance required under this
Agreement and such other evidence of insurance or copies of policies as
may be reasonably required by CITY from time to time. Insurance must
be placed with insurers with a current A.M. Best Company Rating
equivalent to at least a Rating of "A:VII."
F. Should CONSULTANT, for any reason, fail to obtain and maintain the
insurance required by this Agreement, CITY may obtain such coverage at
CONSULTANT's expense and deduct the cost of such insurance from
payments due to CONSULTANT under this Agreement or terminate
pursuant to Section 155.
23. USE OF SUBCONTRACTORS. CONSULTANT must obtain CITY's prior written
approval to use any consultants while performing any portion of this Agreement. Such
approval must approve of the proposed consultant and the terms of compensation.
24. INCIDENTAL TASKS. CONSULTANT will meet with CITY monthly to provide the
status on the project, which will include a schedule update and a short narrative
description of progress during the past month for each major task, a description of the
work remaining and a description of the work to be done before the next schedule

Subject: Proposal for Senate Bill No. 205 Assistance for Fiscal Year 2019-
2020
Dear Mr. Xu and Ms. Ebert:
Geosyntec Consultants (Geosyntec) is pleased to provide to you this proposal that
includes a scope of work to assist the City of El Segundo (City) in implementing Senate
Bill No. 205 (herein referred to as the Senate Bill), approved on October 2, 2019. The
Senate Bill requires that specific business operations applying for a business License
within the City must demonstrate enrollment with the NPDES Industrial General Permit
(IGP) program by providing a primary Standard Industrial Classification (SIC) Code as
well as a WDID, NONA, or NEC number. Prior to the issuance or renewal of the business
license, it is the City's responsibility to determine whether the primary SIC Codes
assigned to the business operations are applicable to the IGP and, if so, the City shall
confirm that the WDID, WDID application number, NONA, or NEC corresponds to the
business requesting the initial business license or business license renewal.
Geosyntec has prepared a scope of work that aims to assist the City in implementing the
requirements of the Senate Bill. Geosyntec recognizes that if a revised MS4 Permit is
released during the duration of the scoped project herein, a change in project scope may
be necessary to continue meeting the new Permit requirements.
SCOPE OF WORK
The City is requesting specific assistance with discrete tasks to address Senate Bill No.
205. Geosyntec proposes to assist the City in the following ways:
Task l—Proiect Management
Task 1 includes all project management activities necessary for the fulfillment of the
entire scope of work. It is assumed that two in-person meetings and two telephone
meetings, each approximately one hour in duration, will take place. Task 1 also accounts

nA l iu_tttators I scieniist.s I innovators
Agreement No. 5816
Mr. Lifan Xu
Ms. Cheryl Ebert

Page 2
for internal coordination of Geosyntec field staff, project organization, record-keeping,
and email communications with the City.
Task 2—Business License Renewal Notification Memo
At the beginning of December of each year, the City mails a business license renewal
letter to all active businesses within the city limits to alert them of their need to renew
their business license prior to December 31. Starting this year (2019), the City will need
to include information in the letter alerting industrial facilities to their new business
license renewal requirements.
Geosyntec will assist the City by creating a memorandum that introduces the new Senate
Bill requirements, helps businesses identify whether they are affected by the Senate Bill,
and includes information and useful resources to help businesses select an appropriate
SIC Code prior to the business license renewal filing.
Task 3—Industrial facility SIC Code Verification
Geosyntec will support the City in updating its internal database of facilities to track IGP
information gathered during business license issuance/renewal. Based on preliminary
information provided by the City, it is assumed that there are approximately 200 facilities
that may identify as industrial within the City limits. Support by Geosyntec may include
the following activities:
• Database screening—Geosyntec will examine existing database information
(including 4 -digit NAICS codes) provided by the City and try to determine which
of the businesses identify as industrial facilities.
• Phone screenings—Facilities that have a NAICS code equivalent to an industrial
SIC code will first be contacted by phone, if possible, to try to determine the
facilities' primary activities and verify that their SIC Code appropriately reflects
their primary industrial activity.
• Field investigations—It may be necessary to travel to each facility that identifies
as industrial to observe its operations and verify its SIC Code.
• Data collection—Geosyntec will record information about the facility, such as
facility activity descriptions, the SIC Code provided by the facility, and the
recommended SIC code that more closely matches the facility's activities (if
applicable). All SIC Codes recommended by Geosyntec will be reviewed by a
Qualified Industrial Stormwater Practitioner prior to delivery of to the City. This
Proposal -El Segundo-IGP-Support-FY19-20_clean
Agreement No. 5816
Mr. Lifan Xu
Ms. Cheryl Ebert
November 13, 2019
Page 3
information will be delivered to the City in Microsoft Excel format. The City can
use this information to verify whether the facility is compliant with the IGP.
Follow-Up—After the initial round of facility investigations and screenings have
taken place, Geosyntec will conduct any necessary follow-up investigations, such
as inspections of new industrial businesses that are applying for a business license
for the first time. It is assumed that approximately 25% of the number of facilities
screened in 2019 may need either new or follow-up investigations. Task 3
includes the addition of new facility information to the Microsoft Excel tracking
spreadsheet.
Task 3 assumes 200 initial facility visits/investigations in 2019 and 50 follow-up visits,
at 20 minutes per visit, to verify industrial SIC Codes. These site visits are separate from,
and will not qualify as, the industrial/commercial site inspections required by the 2012
MS4 Permit.
Task 4, -Facility Database Updates
Per the 2012 MS4 Permit, "Each Permittee shall maintain an updated watershed -based
inventory or database containing the latitude / longitude coordinates of all industrial and
commercial facilities within its jurisdiction that are critical sources of storm water
pollution. The inventory or database shall be maintained in electronic format and
incorporation of facility information into a Geographical Information System (GIS) is
recommended." Task 4 provides scope for Geosyntec to assist the City in creating a more
robust facility database using GIS or database tools besides Microsoft Excel, as is
currently used by the City, to track its industrial and commercial facilities.
COST PROPOSAL
Geosyntec will conduct the work effort described in the Scope of Work for $45,280 based
on actual time and materials expended in accordance with Geosyntec Consultants 2019
Rate Schedule. This amount will not be exceeded without prior approval. A budgetary
cost breakdown is presented in Table 1 showing anticipated expenditures of time and
materials. It is understood that reallocation of cost between tasks and subtasks may occur,
or that entire tasks may be replaced in coordination with the City, so long as the total
contract amount is not exceeded.
It is the nature of regulatory -driven programs to be subject to uncertainty and
unpredictable events such as changes in regulatory requirements, emerging issues,
enforcement action or third -party lawsuits, or simply additional support required by City
staff that was unanticipated. If such unpredictable event(s) or needs arise, Geosyntec

authorization for scope change to provide the City with additional consulting services to
respond to such an increased scope.
Please do not hesitate to contact Stacy Luell if you have any questions or require
additional information or scope clarification. We look forward to continuing to assist you
and your colleagues at the City of El Segundo.
