Dear Mr. Xu and Ms. Ebert: Geosyntec Consultants (Geosyntec) is pleased to provide to you this proposal for consulting services to assist the City of El Segundo (City) in implementing the Municipal Stormwater Permit through June 30, 2024. This proposal provides a scope of work to assist the City in meeting its individual requirements under both the current 2012 LA MS4 Permit, and the forthcoming revised LA MS4 Permit (upon approval). The cost basis for this proposal has been broken down into three equivalent efforts, one for each complete fiscal year of the proposed term: Fiscal Year 2021-2022, Fiscal Year 2022-2023, and Fiscal year 2023-2024. SCOPE OF WORK The City is not requesting support for all Permit elements at this time, but rather specific assistance with discrete tasks as well as on -call support to address issues and needs as they arise. Task 1 —_Regulatory Support Task 1 provides as -needed support to City staff to help meet regulatory requirements, such as: Program -level planning for continued implementation of the 2012 LA MS4 Permit; planning for and implementation of the revised MS4 Permit; and on -call support to address developments arising from Permit -wide workshops or other Permit implementation support needs. 9 Assistance to City staff (upon request) in support of Enhanced Watershed Management Program (EWMP)-related watershed activities for both Santa Proposal -El Segundo-MS4-Support-FYs21-23_sign engi VII"1r rs I rock nos::�s I '1.1'1.nova1tors Mr. Lifan Xu Ms. Cheryl Ebert July 1, 2021 Page 2 Agreement No. 6119 Monica Bay and Dominguez Channel watershed EWMPs, which address TMDLs incorporated into the 2012 LA MS4 Permit for: Santa Monica Bay Beaches Bacteria, Marine Debris (trash), DDT and PCBs in Santa Monica Bay; and Toxics (metals, legacy pesticides and PCBs, polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons and aquatic toxicity) for Dominguez Channel/LA Harbor. • Support with requests related to the development, adoption, and/or implementation of the City's LID Ordinance and Green Street Policy. Recommendations for revisions to the City's website to meet LA MS4 Permit requirements pertaining to the Public Information and Participation Program (PIPP) and/or the Industrial/ Commercial Facilities Program (Section VI.D.5.d.(4) and VI.D.6 of the LA MS4 Permit, respectively). Among other requirements, the LA MS4 Permit requires the City of El Segundo to maintain a stormwater website which includes educational materials and opportunities for public participation in stormwater pollution prevention and clean-up activities. The LA MS4 Permit also requires distribution of educational stormwater pollution prevention materials to industrial/ commercial facilities, which may include an online component, if the City so chooses. The scope of this task will be to review the City's existing website and available educational materials and then provide recommendations for website updates. Task 2 --- Public Agency Activities Program Trainin This task is provided to meet the annual City staff training requirement for the ongoing implementation of Public Works stormwater pollution prevention BMPs as well as on new provisions of the Permit that will not be customized through the EWMP, such as the non-stormwater discharge prohibitions. A workshop with the Public Works Department staff, as well as appropriate staff from other departments, will be developed and delivered at the City's offices. This workshop will include discussion of the conditionally exempt non-stormwater discharges and required BMPs for those exemptions. A single two-hour workshop session is assumed per fiscal year, with allowance for adequate preparation time for structuring the workshop and providing handouts. Effort for preparation of the presentation and handouts will be conducted in a cost -shared fashion. Task 3 — Industrial/Commercial Facilities Control Program The LA MS4 Permit requires Permittees to have established Industrial/Commercial Facilities Programs, in accordance with Section VI.D.6 of the Permit. Geosyntec will Proposal -El Segundo-MS4-Support-FYs2l-23_sign en-Dinee:rs I scientists I innovators Mr. Lifan Xu Ms. Cheryl Ebert July 1, 2021 Page 3 Agreement No. 6119 provide as -needed support for the industrial/commercial inspection program requirements of the Municipal Stormwater Permit. This may include an internal audit of the existing program, including a review of records; a review of the site inspection process; annual updates to the inventory of industrial/commercial facilities; one day of in -field site inspection training per fiscal year; and/or support in case of a Regional Board audit. COST PROPOSAL Geosyntec will conduct the work effort described in the Scope of Work for up to $50,000 annually in each fiscal year, for three years (terminating June 30, 2024), based on actual time and materials expended in accordance with Geosyntec Consultants' attached Rate Schedule. Project expenditures are not to exceed $50,000 per fiscal year. It is understood that reallocation of cost between tasks and subtasks may occur each year, or that entire tasks may be replaced in coordination with the City, so long as the total contract amount is not exceeded. The contract amount will not be exceeded without prior approval. 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 stands ready to assist the City and, at City staff s request, will submit a request for an 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.
