We believe that Michael Baker International is an ideal candidate for this assignment for the following reasons: r We recently prepared the IS/MND for the adjacent Chick-fil-A project at 740 N. Sepulveda Boulevard. With this experience, we have inherent knowledge of the environmental conditions in the Project area. • We have included key subconsultants on our team to give the City access to the best experts for this particular Project. For example, since Kimley-Horn is currently drafting vehicle miles traveled (VMT) analysis guidelines for the City, we have included them on our team to prepare the Project's VMT analysis, which ensures that the Project's VMT analysis will be consistent with the City's evolving approach for addressing Senate Bill (SB) 743 transportation analysis requirements. We have also included a notable light and glare specialty firm, Benya Burnett Consultancy, to conduct a quantified glare analysis of the proposed glass fa4ade for the 650 North Pacific Coast Highway building. • Our key staff have significant CEQA experience with similar projects throughout Los Angeles County. Examples include multi -story commercial and mixed-use projects in the cities of Pasadena, Los Angeles, Manhattan Beach, and Santa Clarita. The key issues that we describe in this proposal, along with our solutions to those issues and the corresponding scope of work, are based on this relevant experience. Our proposal is organized into the following sections; A. Project Understanding B. Issues of Concern C. Scope of Work MBAKERINTL COM Agreement No. 5981 Mr. Eduardo Schonborn, City of EI Segundo RE: Proposal to Provide CEQA Compliance Services for New Office Campus Project at 650-700 N. PCH Page 2 D. Budget Estimates E. Schedule Estimates F. Project Team and Qualifications G. Closure A. PROJECT UNDERSTANDING The City has received an application to redevelop an approximately 7.3 -acre site with a commercial office building campus. The proposed Project involves the exterior and interior renovation of two existing office buildings at 650 and 700 North Pacific Coast Highway, and construction of a new 7 -story, 122,156 -gross -square -foot office building with a 1,185 -space parking structure. The existing building at 650 North Pacific Coast Highway (Building A) is an 8 -story, 131 -foot-tall office building, and is proposed to be remodeled with fa4ade improvements to have full -height window walls. The existing building at 700 North Pacific Coast Highway (Building B) is two stories along the portion fronting North Pacific Coast Highway, and a single story in the rear half of the building. The new building (Building C) would be located directly behind Building A. In addition to its integrated parking structure, Building C would be developed with a plaza area that would replace the existing large parking lot that provides parking to Buildings A and B. The property comprises seven parcels that include the following features: M Two have frontage along North Pacific Coast Highway (650 and 700 North Pacific Coast Highway); 0 Three are landlocked parcels that are currently non -conforming lots due to their lack of having street frontage; furthermore, one of these does not comply with the minimum lot size requirements; • A former railroad spur parcel that has street frontage on two public rights of way, Mariposa and Maple Avenues, which, however, do not meet the minimum required width of street frontage; and w 737 Carl Jacobson Way, which has an existing office building; however, no physical changes are proposed to this property. The Project includes designing and beautifying the existing and new structures with contemporary architecture, developing an outdoor landscaped plaza, enhancing the front setback areas with new trees, and providing shade and increasing site permeability. The applicant, L&R ZAV 650 Sepulveda, LLC, seeks the City's approval of the following entitlements for this Project: Zone Text Amendment, pursuant to Section 15-26 of the EI Segundo Municipal Code (ESMC), to amend the definition of floor area ratio (ESMC Section 15-1-6) to exempt a fully integrated parking structure within a new construction building. According to the applicant, the City is in the process of updating the Zoning Code to reflect this change. In the event that the City Agreement No. 5981 Mr. Eduardo Schonborn, City of EI Segundo RE: Proposal to Provide CEQA Compliance Services for New Office Campus Project at 650-700 N. PCH Page 3 completes this change during the normal course of business during the Project entitlement process, the applicant will retract the Zone Text Amendment request. • Site Plan Review for a new commercial development that includes structures which have a combined gross floor area of more than 50,000 square feet (not including parking structures), in accordance with ESMC Section 15-3002, Site Plan Review. • Vesting Tentative Parcel Map, in accordance with ESMC Sections 14-2 and 14-3, to consolidate seven parcels into one ground parcel. • Waivers of Street Dedication requirements, pursuant to ESMC Section 15-24-A-5, on North Pacific Coast Highway, Mariposa Avenue, and Carl Jacobson Way. The Project site is located in the northeastern quadrant of the City along Pacific Coast Highway, within a fully urbanized setting. The site is approximately 0.4 miles south of the Imperial Highway/Glenn Anderson Freeway (Interstate 105), 0.6 miles south of the Los Angeles International Airport (LAX), and 2.25 miles east of the Pacific Ocean. The property is irregularly shaped and located entirely within the block bounded by Pacific Coast Highway to the west, Carl Jacobson Way to the east, Maple Avenue on the north, and Mariposa Avenue to the south. All of the Project parcels are within the City's Corporate Office (CO) zone, are designated in the EI Segundo General Plan for Corporate Office land use, and are currently developed with office uses and surface parking.The two buildings at 650 and 700 North Pacific Coast Highway are currently occupied by Boeing. In addition to Pacific Coast Highway and the other perimeter roadways, the property is surrounded by a mix of office, retail, restaurant, and some non -conforming light industrial and manufacturing uses, with General Commercial, Parking, and Corporate Office zoning and General Plan land use designations (same -named). A large and continuous residential area that extends toward the ocean is adjacent to the commercial business on the west side of Pacific Coast Highway in the Project area. Here the closest residence is a multi -family residential unit along Palm Avenue, approximately 270 feet west of the existing building at 650 N. Pacific Coast Highway. Based on review of the provided Project application materials, several clarification and additional data needs are anticipated. We will work closely with the City and the applicant to develop appropriate assumptions for Project characteristics that are critical to the assessment of environmental impacts, including: • Number of construction workers, by stage • Construction traffic, by stage, including material deliveries and hauls, and vehicle type and size • Construction equipment verification and utilization, including use of any portable generators • Energy consumption needs and proposed sources, including any temporary power • Energy efficiency measures and renewable energy elements • Proposed interior and exterior lighting • Project design measures to avoid or reduce environmental impacts Agreement No. 5981 Mr. Eduardo Schonborn, City of EI Segundo RE: Proposal to Provide CEQA Compliance Services for New Office Campus Project at 650-700 N. PCH Page 4 B. ISSUES OF CONCERN Based on our recent and current experience preparing CEQA documents for similar projects in the region and, in particular those in close proximity to sensitive receptors, we are familiar with the types of impacts and community concerns that often accompany such land uses. Project concerns depend on the unique characteristics of the project, project site, and the surrounding community, as well as the community's expectations and sensitivity to past or current land uses on or in the vicinity of the project site. Due to nature of the proposed Project construction and limited demolition activities, the Project would generate construction and traffic effects that could result in adverse impacts in air quality, noise, traffic, and hazardous materials, and possibly increased health risk to surrounding uses, including the nearby residents. The Project site is not located within any specific plan area, LAX Airport Influence Area, coastal zone, or along the scenic or eligible scenic portion of Pacific Coast Highway that would require additional compatibility analysis and potential design considerations. As mentioned, the Project involves exterior improvements to Buildings A and B, at 650 and 700 North Pacific Coast Highway, respectively. Since Building C is located on a landlocked parcel and would be surrounded by existing structures, including Building A, which has a height of 131 feet, it is expected that Building C, which would be constructed to 113 feet, would be largely shielded by the existing structures, as shown on the Project design plans and renderings. However, based on the proposed glass facade remodeling on the 131 -foot height of the existing Building A, this building has the potential to result in glare effects to the nearby residences toward the west and motorists along Pacific Coast Highway. As the Project involves construction of expanded facilities which would result in increased trip generation, operational traffic impacts will need to be analyzed to address both CEQA criteria and the City's traffic congestion policies. Also, the existing Buildings A and B, which were built in 1962 and 1957, respectively, and are occupied by Boeing, are over 50 years of age and may have a potential for historic significance under the National Register Criterion A, "Event", where the property may be significant due to its contribution to a major pattern of American or California history. As a result, a cultural resources investigation has been included as an optional task. The following table identifies the several key issues to be addressed in the Project's CEQA analysis, and our proposed solutions to those issues: Issue Area Solutions Aesthetics and Clare: The Project is expected to 1) Use the architectural renderings from the improve the aesthetic value of the Project area applicant to provide a representative view of with the existing building renovation and the Project. No additional simulations are landscaping, while simultaneously shielding the proposed, but could be provided as an new building. However, the proposed design optional task if desired. elements, i.e., use of glass fa4ade, may result in 2) Prepare a quantified Glare Study by an glare effects experienced by motorists along PCH experienced lighting engineer. The study will and the nearby residential area. model sunlight conditions and identify where Agreement No. 5981 Mr. Eduardo Schonborn, City of EI Segundo RE: Proposal to Provide CEQA Compliance Services for New Office Campus Project at 650-700 N. PCH Page 5 Issue Area Traffic ransoortation: The Project entails expanding office uses, which would be anticipated to increase trip generation. The City is in the process of developing policies to address SB 743 requirements to analyze VMT against new CEQA thresholds, while also maintaining consistency with the City's General Plan policies with level of service (LOS) assessment. Solutions viewers would experience glare, and during which times of day and days during the year. 1) Prepare an evaluation of the Project's VMT characteristics. Subcontractor Kimley-Horn was selected for this task to maintain consistency with current efforts to develop the traffic policy for the City. 2) Address LOS analysis in the traffic study to maintain consistency with the City's General Plan.

ACMs and LBP that have potential to be released during construction demolition and renovation activities. Construction Air Ouallty: The Project construction activities have the potential to generate air pollutants that could affect the nearby residential sensitive receptors. Npji : Nearby residential area with closest sensitive receptors identified at approximately 270 feet from Building A has the potential to be affected by construction and traffic noise.

Agreement No. 5981 Mr. Eduardo Schonborn, City of EI Segundo RE: Proposal to Provide CEQA Compliance Services for New Office Campus Project at 650-700 N. PCH Page 6 C. SCOPE OF WORK We propose to prepare an IS/MND and associated technical studies, in accordance with the most recent version of Appendix G of the CEQA Guidelines, adopted in December 2018, considering recent legislation such as CA SB 743. The IS/MND will be prepared with a focus on the site-specific conditions and unique Project characteristics. This will include documenting the local environmental setting, assessing and explaining the ways the Project would change the existing environmental conditions, determining the significance of Project impacts, and identifying measures to mitigate any potentially significant impacts. Our proposed scope of work would consist of the following tasks. Task 1: Develop Project Description We will work with City staff and the Applicant to develop a complete Project description that will enable adequate assessment of environmental impacts that could occur during construction and over the long-term operating life of the Project. A comprehensive narrative and illustrations of key Project features will be provided. Based on review of the current Project Description and architectural plan set, we would like to verify certain Project characteristics, such as square footage calculations, occupancies, and proposed construction equipment, and request additional data, such as construction workforce, and equipment utilization, which need to be considered in the Project impact analysis. Upon contract award, we will transmit a detailed Data Needs Checklist which would track and specify Project characteristics requiring clarification and needed data. This proposal assumes that the following information will be provided to Michael Baker to develop a sufficient project description: • Construction program description—phases, activities, equipment, work crew, durations • Any updated site plan version depicting all proposed site improvements, including dimensions and areas for all types of spaces (e.g., parking, drive aisles, landscaping, loading areas) and building footprints • CAD version of the site plan for glare modeling • Building elevations • Grading, Drainage and Utility Plans, depicting on- and off-site improvements • Narrative description of indoor and outdoor facilities, structures and operations, employee intensities, waste generation, storage and disposal, use/storage/generation of volatile or hazardous substances, hours of operation • Environmental Site Assessments (Phase I and II as may be warranted) • Exterior lighting plans • Energy demands and sources, including any temporary back up or renewable sources • Water needs �[8�Dl�Ot[�O ���1 M��w�o��n��,��wy��gy�w ~o ' RE: Proposal tmProvide CEQA Compliance Services for New Office Campus Project at650-700 N. PCH Page 7 Task 2: Conduct Technical Investigations J./ - Air Quality Assessment Condi1ioms/Reau|aton/prannevvork. The project islocated within the South Coast Air Basin (SCAB), which is under the jurisdiction of the South Coast Air Quality Management District (SCAQMD). Baseline meteorological and air quality data developed through the California Air Resources Board (CARB) will be utilized for the description of existing ambient air quality. Air quality data from the nearest representative air quality monitoring stations will be included to help highlight existing air quality local tmthe project area. The analysis will also describe and address the requirements set forth bxthe SCA[)k4DCEQA Air Quality Handbook. Constrmctimo-Related Emissions. Construction emissions will be quantified with the California Emissions Estimator Model version 2016.3.2 (CalEEMod). A general description of the majorphases of construction and their timing will be required. The air pollutant emissions during construction will becompared tothe S[A{2KAOregional thresholds ofsignificance. Naturally occurring asbestos impacts will also bediscussed qualitatively. LpDo-Term Emissions. Operational (i.e, area, energy, and mobile source) emissions will be quantified and compared tothe SCAQMDregional thresholds ofsignificance. Primary sources of emissions will be related to area sources and local/regional vehicle miles traveled, which will be derived from [a|EEK8md and the Traffic Impact Analysis. Project consistency with the 2016 Air Quality Management Plan (AQK8P)will beevaluated. Localized Emissions. The Project is located within the SCAQyND'sSource Receptor Area (SRA) ] (Southwest Coastal Los Angeles County). Based on localized meteorological data for SRA 3, Michael Baker will analyze localized impacts based upon the SCAQMD's Localized Significance Thresholds (LST) methodology, Air Emissions Health Impacts. Asaresult ofthe California Supreme Court decision for Sierra Club vs. County mfFresno (FiiontRanch LP.) the resultant human health impacts from the project's short- term construcdonand/mng-termnoperationa/airernis»ionsvviUbeconsidered. 2.2 — Energy Consumption Analysis Michael Baker will analyze the energy implications of the Project pursuant to Public Resources Code Section 21l0O(b)EUand AppendixGof the CEQAGuidelines. These statutes and guidelines require a project to describe, where relevant the wasteful, inefficient, and unnecessary consumption of energy caused bvaproject. |naddition, Appendix Gofthe CEQAGuidelines requires aconsistency analysis with state or local plans for renewable energy or energy efficiency. The analysis will analyze energy consumption associated with short-term construction activities, long-term operations, buildings, and transportation. Additionally, the assessment will include mitigation measures to reduce inefficient and unnecessary consumption ofenergy, |fnecessary. 2.3—Greenhouse Gas Emissions Assessment Greenhouse Gas Emissions. Michael Baker will review the land use data and will prepare an inventory of the greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions (i.e., nitrous oxide, methane, and carbon dioxide) Agreement No. 5981 Mr. Eduardo Schonborn, City of EI Segundo RE: Proposal to Provide CEQA Compliance Services for New Office Campus Project at 650-700 N. PCH Page 8 from both direct (i.e., area and mobile sources) and indirect sources (i.e., energy/water consumption and wastewater/solid waste generation). In addition, total GHG emissions from construction activities will be amortized into the GHG emissions inventory. CaIEEMod will be used to quantify GHG emissions. Reductions from recently adopted programs and regulations will be included, such as improvements in vehicle fuel efficiency, low carbon fuel standards, state building code energy efficiency, renewable energy portfolio standards, and landscaping water efficiency. The analysis will also review Project consistency with the Southern California Association of Governments 2020-2045 Regional Transportation Plan/Sustainable Communities Strategy (2020-2045 RTP/SCS), California Air Resources Board 2017 Climate Change Scoping Plan, and possibly other applicable plans for the purpose of reducing GHG emissions. We recommend that impact significance be determined based on the Project's consistency with the applicable GHG reduction programs. Mitigation measures will be identified and incorporated, as necessary, to reduce potentially significant GHG impacts of the proposed Project. 2.4 — Noise Impact Study. Existing Conditions. The applicable noise and land use compatibility criteria for the Project area will be reviewed and noise standards regulating noise impacts will be discussed for land uses on and adjacent to the Project site. A site visit will be conducted and short-term noise level measurements will be taken along the Project area. The noise monitoring survey will include three long-term (24- hour) noise measurements taken in the immediate Project vicinity to determine existing ambient noise conditions on the Project site and nearby residential areas. In the event that ambient noise measurements are not possible to record due to COVID-19 restrictions, data from recent projects in the near vicinity will be reviewed. Additionally, traffic noise may also be modeled if noise levels cannot be reasonably ascertained. Construction -Related Noise and Vibration. Noise impacts from construction sources will be analyzed based on the anticipated equipment to be used, length of a specific construction task, equipment power type (gasoline or diesel engine), horsepower, load factor, and percentage of time in use. The construction noise impacts will be evaluated in terms of maximum levels (Lmax) and hourly equivalent continuous noise levels (Leq) and the frequency of occurrence at adjacent sensitive locations. An analysis of vibration impacts will be based on the Federal Transit Administration's vibration analysis guidance. Analysis requirements will be based on the sensitivity of the area, specific construction activities, and Noise Ordinance specifications. Operational Noise Sources. The Project -generated off-site traffic noise levels will be compared to the City's Noise Ordinance specifications and/or land use compatibility criteria for off-site uses. On- site noise generating activities (e.g., stationary sources, truck loading/unloading, etc.) will also be addressed and analyzed for potential impacts to the adjacent uses and will be assessed against the Noise Ordinance specifications. Compliance with applicable noise standards will be evaluated, with recommended mitigation measures included where appropriate. The predicted operational noise will be modeled using either the FHWA RD -77-108 or SounclPlan, and previously obtained reference noise measurements of office park noise sources (i.e., truck delivers, mechanical rooftop -equipment, parking lot activities, etc.) to calculate operational onsite noise impacts to nearby residential land uses, and compare the results to the City's stationary noise standards. Potential vibration impacts associated with the on-going operations activities will be analyzed using methodology from the Vibration Guidance Manual, prepared for Caltrans. Agreement No. 5981 Mr. Eduardo Schonborn, City of EI Segundo RE: Proposal to Provide CEQA Compliance Services for New Office Campus Project at 650-700 N. PCH Page 9 — In the event that exceedances occur, feasible mitigation measures will be identified to reduce the noise and vibration impacts to below significant levels. 2.5 — Glare Analysis We propose to have Benya Burnett Consultancy (BBC), a light and glare specialty firm, prepare a quantitative analysis of the potential glare impacts from the proposed glass fa4ade on Building A, at 650 North Pacific Coast Highway. This analysis will consider potential glare impacts at public viewing locations, including motorists along Pacific Coast Highway, residences to the west of the Project, and people at the nearby commercial businesses. The glare analysis would be conducted using three-dimensional modeling of the Project in AG132 (lighting software). By referencing applicable International Commission on Illumination (CIE) glare assessment criteria, BBC will evaluate the impacts of fa4ade and glazing materials affecting drivers from viewing locations where drivers, residents, and pedestrians may be susceptible to reflected solar glare. Based on these calculations supported by documentation of the glare criteria evaluations BBC performed, we will recommend selection criteria for facade materials and other considerations. 2.6 Traffic lmpactAnalysis. Kimley-Horn will prepare a traffic impact analysis (TIA) as a subconsultant to Michael Baker International. As a result of the evolving methodologies and guidance to assess traffic impacts, the TIA will analyze traffic impacts based on: 1) LOS, in accordance with the City General Plan Circulation Element policies; and 2) VMT methodology that will be consistent with Kimley-Horn's current VMT policy development for the City. The traffic study will include an evaluation of the site access points, on-site circulation, and parking lot layout. We will identify any recommended improvements to the site circulation to achieve efficient traffic flows to, from, and throughout the site. The tasks involved in analyzing the Project's LOS and VMT impacts are described below. LOS Analrils: Obtain historical morning and evening peak period traffic count data at up to 11 study intersections. The study intersections are currently envisioned to be those that were studied in a recent TIA prepared for a nearby commercial business. The Project trip generation estimates will be developed using the Institute of Transportation Engineers (ITE) Trip Generation Manual (10th Edition), based on likely origins and destinations of residents and current traffic patterns in the area. Traffic conditions will be examined for the a.m. and p.m. peak hours and for daily operations under the following scenarios: + Existing conditions; • Existing Plus Project Conditions; «� Opening Year plus Related Projects without Project Conditions (Cumulative without Project Conditions); and �» Opening Year plus Related Projects plus Project Conditions (Cumulative without Project Conditions). Agreement No. 5981 Mr. Eduardo Schonborn, City of EI Segundo RE: Proposal to Provide CEQA Compliance Services for New Office Campus Project at 650-700 N. PCH Page 10 Mitigation measures will be identified to offset significant project impacts. These mitigation measures may include restriping, intersection turn lanes, signalization, and segment lane additions, as appropriate. CEOA VMT Screening Analvsis: Since the City has not yet adopted SB 743 thresholds or guidance regarding methodology. it is intended that the VMT analysis approach will be consistent with December 2018 guidance provided by the Governor's Office of Planning and Research (OPR). Kimley-Horn will run initial VMT screening based on information published by the OPR. Kimley- Horn will coordinate with the lead agency regarding their planned approach to establishing thresholds and methodologies for the VMT analysis. This task does not include a quantitative VMT analysis (modeling required). If the City requires a quantitative VMT analysis, this will constitute additional effort. An optional task for a quantitative VMT analysis is provided below. Optional Ouantitative (Modeled) VMTAnalvsis: Kimley-Horn will code land use into the project's representative Traffic Analysis Zone JAZ) within the SCAG travel demand model (TDM). The resultant TDM output and interim model files will be used to determine the Home-based Work VMT per employee for the proposed project. Note that this will require deconstructing the model output sufficiently so that both the trip purposes and trip lengths for each contributing part of the project's VMT from other sources can be completed. The process undertaken will be consistent with OPR guidance as described in the most recent release of its guidance. Mitigation measures for reducing VMT impacts determined to be potentially significant will be identified. Kimley-Horn will prepare a draft TIA report documenting the analysis procedures, existing conditions, traffic impacts, and recommended improvements. 2.7 Optional Historic Resources Assessment. While not previously identified, we are including an optional task for a historic resources assessment on the existing structures at 650 and 700 North Pacific Coast Highway. The buildings, constructed in 1962 and 1957, respectively, are over 50 years of age and have not been evaluated for inclusion in the California Register of Historical Resources (California Register). The evaluations will include property -specific research, current photographs, and a historic context provided on applicable Department of Parks and Recreation (DPR) 523 forms, the standard form used by historic preservation professionals throughout California. The intent of the above- mentioned cultural resources identification efforts is to determine if there are archaeological resources and identify if the buildings are historical resources as defined in Section 15064.5(a) of the CEQA Guidelines. We will complete the South Central Coastal Information Center records search, literature and historic map review, Los Angeles County Historical Society consultation, and field survey and California Register of Historical Resources evaluation. This scope assumes that the project has no direct physical impact to the building located at 737 Carl Jacobson Way. Further, we assume an archaeological survey will not be required because project site appears fully hardscaped with no exposed soils. The results of the assessment will be presented in a memorandum report with attached Department of Parks and Recreation (DPR) 523 forms that can be appended to the IS/MND. Agreement No. 5981 Mr. Eduardo Schonborn, City of EI Segundo RE: Proposal to Provide CEQA Compliance Services for New Office Campus Project at 650-700 N. PCH Page 11 Task 3: Prepare Draft Initial Study 3.1 — 1St Screencheck Draft Initial Study. An Initial Study will be completed, following the form provided in Appendix G of the State CEQA Guidelines. Concise, explanatory and annotated responses will be provided for all checklist responses, in the 21 specific impact categories. An electronic copy of the 1 It Draft IS will be submitted for review and comment by City staff. 3.2-2 nd Screencheck Draft Initial Study. We will respond to City staff comments on the 1St Draft IS, prepare appropriate revisions to the document, and submit an electronic version of the 2nd Draft IS for City review and comment. Task 4: Publish and Circulate Draft IVMND This proposal assumes that the results of the Initial Study will indicate that a Negative or Mitigated Negative Declaration is the appropriate determination, rather than an environmental impact report. Based on this assumption, we will make final revisions to the IS as directed by City staff, compile the official Draft IS/MND for the City's signature, complete a Notice of Intent to Adopt an MND, make the requested number of printed and electronic copies of each, and send the NOI and Draft MND, including appendix materials, to the distribution list to be developed in consultation with City staff. All items would be transmitted via certified mail, except any materials sent to the State Clearinghouse (if determined to be necessary), which would be shipped via a commercial carrier such as Federal Express or submitted electronically. This proposal assumes that the document production would consist of no more than the following: 0 Notice of Intent to Adopt an MND: 25 printed copies • Draft IS/MND: 25 CD copies and 2 printed copies (includes appendix materials) Task 5: Public Review and Adoption The public review/comment period is estimated to be be 30 calendar days, in the event that distribution to the State Clearinghouse is necessary. At the end of that period, we will prepare concise written responses to any written comments submitted to the City concerning the adequacy of the information presented in the Proposed MND. Since the number and complexity of comments that may be submitted cannot be predicted, our proposed budget limits this effort to $5,340 of professional fees. If any responses warrant a corresponding revision to some part of the Proposed MND, that revision will be so noted. A Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program will be prepared to accompany the City's CEQA findings and action to adopt the Final MND. Our Project Manager or Director would attend one public to respond to questions concerning the IS/MND. Task 6: File NOD Within five business days following the City's action to approve the project, we would prepare and file a Notice of Determination with the Los Angeles County Clerk. Prior to filing an NOD, we will submit a No Effect Determination Request to the California Department of Fish and Wildlife; Mr. Eduardo Schanborn, City of EI Segundo Agreement No. 5981 RE: Proposal to Provide CEQA Compliance Services for New Office Campus Project at 650-700 N. PCH Page 12 however, in our experience, it is extremely rare that they concur with such requests, even on previously developed properties in a fully urbanized area. Task 7: Project Management and Meetings Throughout the entire process of preparing and adopting the (M)ND, we will be conducting regular communications with City staff and our team, as well as other agencies and entities as needed. Troubleshooting, budget and schedule monitoring and reporting will occur on a regular basis. Attendance at a project start-up meeting and one additional meeting at City Hall is included. This task also includes compilation of all background documents, to maintain that portion of the administrative record on an ongoing basis, with regular submittals to the City. A budget limit of 30 hours is proposed for this task. Should additional effort be required or requested, we will work with City staff to develop an appropriate budget augment at that time. D.

Closure The scope of work, budget and schedule estimates provided herein are based on our preliminary understanding of the environmental setting and general nature of the proposed office campus renovation and construction. The cost and schedule estimates assume there will be no change to the project description after it has been submitted and reviewed by the City. Certain specifics will need to be determined and provided as we move into the preparation of the IS and there is a potential that one or more tasks will need to be adjusted or expanded to respond to significant new information through more research or analysis. In those circumstances, we will work with the City to develop modifications to our scope, budget, and schedule, as needed. Given our preliminary understanding of the scope of the proposed project and the environmental concerns, we anticipate that the IS will support an MND. Should any potentially significant impacts be identified that warrant more extensive analysis and/or should any other issues arise that indicate preparation of an Environmental Impact Report would be prudent, we would develop a corresponding scope of work, budget, and schedule for the City's consideration. We appreciate this opportunity to be of service to the City of EI Segundo and are ready to proceed with the work described in this proposal upon your authorization. If you have any questions concerning this proposal, please contact John Bellas at 562-200-7170 or Jennifer Wu at 310-436-5931. Sincerely, Jennifer Wu John M.

PROJECT EXPERIENCE Camino Town & Country Center Revitalization Project, Oceanside, CA. Prepared an Air Quality and Global Climate Change Analysis, a Health Risk Assessment (HRA) and Noise Impact Analysis for the demolition of 84,305 square feet of existing building space and construction of 109,150 square feet of shopping center building space. The air quality and GHG report analyzed the regional construction and operational air and GHG emissions with the CalEEMod model and provided a qualitative analysis of local fugitive dust impacts from construction. The analysis found that construction and operational activities would create less than significant air quality impacts. The GHG analysis compared the business -as -usual GHG emissions to the with project year 2020 GHG emissions and found that the proposed project would result in a significant GHG emissions impact. Mitigation was provided that limited parking supply, required the installation of four electric vehicle charging stations, improvements to pedestrian network, and implementation of a ride sharing www.vistalb.com Agreement No. 5981 ENVIRONMENTAL program to the shopping center employees. With implementation of the GHG mitigation measures, the GHG emissions were reduced to less than significant levels. The HRA utilized diesel truck running and idling emission rates from the EMFAC2014 model, TRU emission rates from the OFFROAD2011 model and the AERMOD View to calculate the diesel particulate matter (DPM) concentrations from operation of the proposed project at the nearby sensitive receptors. No significant health risks were found. The noise analysis utilized the FHWA's RCNM model to analyze the noise impacts from onsite construction activities and utilized the FHWA RD -77-108 model to analyze the noise impacts associated with the additional vehicles on the nearby roads and utilized typical noise propagation rates to analyze the new onsite stationary noise sources. No significant construction or operational noise or vibration impacts were found. Home 2 Hotel by Hilton Project, Redlands, CA. Prepared an Air Quality and Greenhouse Gas Emissions Impact Analysis and a Noise Impact Analysis that analyzed the development of a 77 -room hotel adjacent to Interstate 10 and Tennessee Street. The air quality and greenhouse gas emissions analyses utilized the CalEEMod model to analyze the regional air and GHG emissions from construction and operational activities and the SCAQMD's Look -Up Tables were utilized to analyze the criteria pollutants local air concentrations at the nearby sensitive receptors. No significant air quality or GHG emissions impacts were found. The noise analysis utilized the FHWA's RCNM model to analyze the noise impacts from onsite construction activities, utilized the FHWA RD - 77 -108 model to calculate the off-site roadway noise impacts from project -generated trips, and utilized the SounclPlan model to calculate the freeway and nearby road noise impacts to the proposed hotel rooms and outdoor pool and BBQ areas. Significant noise impacts were found to occur at the outdoor pool and BBQ area and mitigation of a 10 -foot high wall was recommended to reduce the outdoor noise impacts to less than significant levels. Significant noise impacts were also found in the hotel rooms that would face Interstate 10 and mitigation of upgraded windows with a minimum STC rating of 28 STC was recommended to reduce the hotel room noise impacts to less than significant levels.
