Consultant further covenants and represents that in the performance of its duties hereunder no person having any such interest shall perform any services under this Agreement.

(FPPC Reg. 18700(a)(2).) 12. Professional Ability of Consultant. City has relied upon the professional training and ability of Consultant to perform the services hereunder as a material inducement to enter into this Agreement. Consultant shall therefore provide properly skilled professional and technical personnel to perform all services under this Agreement. All work performed by Consultant under this Agreement shall be in accordance with applicable legal requirements and shall meet the standard of quality ordinarily to be expected of competent professionals in Consultant’s field of expertise. 13. Compliance with Laws. a. Consultant shall comply with all local, state and federal laws and regulations applicable to the services required hereunder, including any rule, regulation or bylaw governing the conduct or performance of Consultant and/or its employees, officers, or board members. b. Consultant represents that it has obtained and will maintain at all times during the term of this Agreement all professional and/or business licenses, certifications and/or permits necessary for performing the services described in this Agreement, including a City business license. 14. Licenses. Consultant represents and warrants to City that it has the licenses, permits, qualifications, insurance and approvals of whatsoever nature which are legally required of Consultant to practice its profession. Consultant represents and warrants to City that Consultant shall, at its sole cost and expense, keep in effect or obtain at all times during the term of this Agreement, any licenses, permits, insurance and approvals which are legally required of Consultant to practice its profession. Consultant shall maintain a City of Lake Elsinore business license. 15. Indemnity. a. Indemnification for Professional Liability. To the fullest extent permitted by law, Consultant shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless City and any and all of its officials, employees and agents (“Indemnified Parties”) from and against any and all claims, losses, liabilities, damages, costs and expenses, including attorney’s fees and costs, to the extent they arise out of, pertain to, or relate to the negligence, recklessness, or willful misconduct of the Consultant. Consultant’s duty to defend shall consist of reimbursement of defense costs incurred Page 6 by City in direct proportion to the Consultant’s proportionate percentage of fault. Consultant’s percentage of fault shall be determined, as applicable, by a court of law, jury or arbitrator. In the event any loss, liability or damage is incurred by way of settlement or resolution without a court, jury or arbitrator having made a determination of the Consultant’s percentage of fault, the parties agree to mediation with a third party neutral to determine the Consultant’s proportionate percentage of fault for purposes of determining the amount of indemnity and defense cost reimbursement owed to the City. b. Indemnification for Other Than Professional Liability. Other than in the performance of professional services and to the full extent permitted by law, Consultant shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless City, and any and all of its employees, officials and agents from and against any liability (including liability for claims, suits, actions, arbitration proceedings, administrative proceedings, regulatory proceedings, losses, expenses or costs of any kind, whether actual, alleged or threatened, including attorneys’ fees and costs, court costs, interest, defense costs, and expert witness fees), where the same arise out of, are a consequence of, or are in any way attributable to, in whole or in part, the performance of this Agreement by Consultant or by any individual or entity for which Consultant is legally liable, including but not limited to officers, agents, employees or sub-consultants of Consultant. Consultant shall not be liable to third parties for any liability exempted by statute. c. General Indemnification Provisions. Consultant agrees to obtain executed indemnity agreements with provisions identical to those set forth here in this section from each and every sub-consultant or any other person or entity involved by, for, with or on behalf of Consultant in the performance of this Agreement. In the event Consultant fails to obtain such indemnity obligations from others as required here, Consultant agrees to be fully responsible according to the terms of this section. Failure of City to monitor compliance with these requirements imposes no additional obligations on City and will in no way act as a waiver of any rights hereunder. This obligation to indemnify and defend City as set forth here is binding on the successors, assigns or heirs of Consultant and shall survive the termination of this Agreement or this section. 16. Insurance Requirements. a. Insurance.

(HDR) Proposal for Interstate 15 (I-15) Nichols Road Interchange Improvement Project Project Study Report-Project Development Support (PSR-PDS), City Project No. Z10082 Dear Mr. Habib and the Selection Panel Members, In response to the Request for Proposal (RFP), HDR has assembled a team with local delivery experience working with regional agencies on similar projects. Our proposal highlights our project understanding and experience in the City of Lake Elsinore (City) and Southwest Riverside County which is one of the fastest growing areas in the region. The I-15 corridor has both regional and local significance as a primary north-south corridor connecting other regional centers and communities. As a result, the area experiences high levels of traffic congestion which results in substantial delays for retail business patrons and residents. Due to this congestion, many Elsinore Valley residents use Nichols Road as a bypass route into the City and to enter the Outlets at Lake Elsinore or to gain access to the lake. Nichols Road provides entry to other recreation destinations like the Cleveland National Forest as well as connectivity to Southern Orange County via the State Route (SR)-74 crossing. The City, along with California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) District 8, Riverside County Transportation and Land Management Agency (TLMA), and Riverside County Transportation Commission (RCTC), are partnering to develop the I-15 Nichols Road Interchange Improvement Project PSR-PDS (Project) to improve local street network access and regional interchange operations to access the growing developments in this portion of Lake Elsinore at the I-15 Nichols Road Interchange. The City is seeking a team that has knowledge delivering PSR-PDSs. The HDR Team has that experience and offers the following: HDR has teamed with sub-consultant partners, Environmental Review Partners, Inc., Fehr & Peers, Guida Surveying, Inc., Michael Baker International, Inc., and PaleoWest, LLC, to round out the HDR Team. As seen in Table 1.1, we have worked together for more than 10 years delivering similar projects throughout the Inland Empire, including the RCTC I-15 Express Lanes Project - Southern Extension (ELPSE) Project Approval and Environmental Document (PA&ED) and TLMA Ethanac Expressway Project Initiation Document (PID). The HDR Team is also working with the City on key assignments, including the I-15/SR-74 (Central Avenue) Interchange Improvement Project PA&ED, Temescal Canyon Bridge Replacement Over Temescal Creek PS&E, and Auto Center Drive/Casino Drive Bridge Seismic Retrofit Project. Our collective knowledge of the Project area and team synergy will be key factors to the Project’s success.Section 1: Letter of TransmittalA Cohesive Team with a History of Success in the Inland Empire LOT-02 City of Lake Elsinore Engineering Department, I-15 Nichols Road Interchange Improvement Project PSR-PDS | Section 1: Letter of Transmittal Our Project Manager, Brooke Bannasch, is dedicated, committed, and available to deliver this Project with the help of her team.

HDR worked with the City and Caltrans District 8 to screen multiple alternatives and focus on key alternatives that delivered a viable project while minimizing right-of-way impacts. Given that the project is located in the business district area of the City, minimization of right-of-way impacts is key to the project’s success. This is a convergence point for north-south travel through the county on I-15, and SR-74 is one of the key east-west corridors through Riverside County (connecting to Orange County). HDR recently completed the Administrative Draft Initial Study/Environmental Assessment (IS/EA) for the project. Caltrans District 8 is the lead agency under CEQA and NEPA, as assigned by the FHWA. HDR leveraged our existing relationships with Caltrans District 8 environmental staff to obtain early concurrence on scope expectations, minimizing potential delays to the project delivery schedule as result of scope creep. HDR also recently completed a Determination of Biologically Equivalent or Superior Preservation (DBESP) to analyze and address potential project impacts to biological resources, including resources covered under the Western Riverside County Multi-Species Habitat Conservation Plan (MSHCP). The DBESP provides an assessment of the proposed project’s consistency with the Western Riverside County MSHCP and demonstrates that the proposed mitigation for impacts on Western Riverside County MSHCP covered resources is biologically equivalent or superior to the existing conditions on the project site if left undisturbed. The DBESP is currently in review with the Western Riverside County MSHCP Joint Project Review Team. F&P collected new traffic volume data to evaluate the project area. Their Traffic Operations Analysis Report (TOAR) is based on traffic forecasts and traffic capacity analysis for the design year for the interchange. The TOAR analysis was conducted using SimTraffic simulation in Synchro. F&P is performing the initial assessment of various interchange layouts and failure assessments. MBI was responsible for the Location Hydraulic Study (LHS), Summary Floodplain Evaluation Report (SFER), Rapid Stability Assessment (RSA), and Stormwater Data Report (SWDR). They assisted with the preparation of the PA&ED Phase deliverables for reconfiguring this existing tight diamond interchange to improve traffic circulation and access to the retail centers adjacent to the interchange.

Our team has demonstrated a successful partnership with the City and key stakeholders. VALUE ADDED STAKEHOLDERS INVOLVED I-15 Express Lanes Project - Southern Extension PA&ED RCTC | Riverside County, CA HDR is leading the collective effort to construct new lanes along I-15 in Riverside County. The primary component of the I-15 ELPSE is the addition of two tolled express lanes in both the northbound and southbound directions within the median of I-15 from SR-74 (Central Avenue) in the City, through the unincorporated Riverside County community of Temescal Valley, to El Cerrito Road in the City of Corona for a distance of approximately 16 miles. The project would also add a southbound auxiliary lanes between both the Main Street Off-Ramp and SR-74 (Central Avenue) On-Ramp, between SR-74 (Central Avenue) Off-Ramp and Nichols Road On-Ramp, and a segment of auxiliary lane prior to the Nichols Road Off-Ramp. The I-15 ELPSE project includes development of the Project Report to support the consideration for construction of an additional 15 miles of express lanes within the median of the corridor. Design includes an Advance Planning Study (APS) and Structure Preliminary Geotechnical Report (SPGR) for the widening of 30 structures; 15 APS for median bridge widenings; eight of the bridges over existing waterways; drainage studies and treatment areas for water quality needs; staging and traffic control; existing and future utility mapping to determine avoidance measures or protection/relocation costs; construction areas; right-of-way evaluation, including permanent takes as well as both permanent and temporary easements; tolling infrastructure, including California Highway Patrol (CHP) enforcement and tolling gantries; recommended ingress/egress locations to meet current and future traffic demands; and traffic volume forecasts and operational analysis taking into account existing and future land use. Additionally, the project also includes a Managed Lanes Engineering Study and a Toll Concept Report to evaluate operational characteristics of the facility while providing consistency with overhead signage, tolling features, and agency policies of the adjacent express lane systems. F&P coordinated with RCTC and Caltrans District 8 to prepare the TOAR for the I-15 ELPSE PA&ED analysis from Cajalco Road to SR-74. GUIDA provided surveying and mapping services for the PA&ED Phase of this project which included aerial photogrammetric mapping in accordance with the Caltrans A-B-C process, control and alignment surveys in cooperation with Caltrans District 8, initial land net surveys and mapping, and supplemental topographic surveys to support the preliminary design. MBI prepared eight LHS and SFER, a PHR, and a RSA.

VALUE ADDED STAKEHOLDERS INVOLVED * Key Personnel All staff are HDR unless otherwise noted Temescal Canyon Bridge Replacement Over Temescal Creek PS&E City of Lake Elsinore | Lake Elsinore, CA The Highway Bridge Program (HBP)-funded Temescal Canyon Bridge Replacement Over Temescal Creek Project PS&E proposes to realign Temescal Canyon Road between Bernard Street and Lake Street and construct a new bridge over Temescal Creek. The project will replace the existing structurally and hydraulically deficient bridge with a new bridge that will meet the City’s current design standards and accommodate local requirements. The bridge is a three-span, four-lane structure over the natural bottom Temescal Creek. The bridge design uses a precast girder superstructure founded on nine-foot-diameter cast-in-drilled-hole piles which minimizes construction impacts on the environmentally sensitive natural bottom creek. The bridge is designed for up to 19 feet of scour which eliminates the need for scour protection at the piers, further reducing the environmental impacts. HDR is preparing the final design and bid documents and will provide construction support services. Final DBESP and Hazardous Materials Management Plan documents, hydraulic analysis and Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) floodplain mapping revisions, and utility relocations are required for the project. GUIDA performed topographic surveys and provided cross-sections every 100 feet in the channel that cover the creek grading, roadway realignment, and connection points to existing Temescal Canyon roadway. FIRMS INVOLVED: HDR, GUIDA STAFF MEMBERS: • Daniel Weddell* • Rebecca Shum • Uthaya Sandira RELEVANT FEATURES: • Water Crossing • Permitting • Coordination and Agency Oversight • Caltrans Local Assistance • Funding Support 06 Working with the City, HDR developed a context-sensitive bridge aesthetic design that balances with the surrounding environment. It was critical to the City to have the new bridge blend in with the natural surroundings. The Temescal Canyon Bridge would be a showcase for the adjacent future development, providing both vehicular and pedestrian mobility. These enhancements elevated the visual appeal of the bridge, a value that the HDR Team can also provide on the Project. VALUE ADDED STAKEHOLDERS INVOLVED * Key Personnel All staff are HDR unless otherwise noted I-10/Wildwood Canyon Road Interchange PID and PA&ED City of Yucaipa | Yucaipa, CA The City of Yucaipa selected HDR to perform the PID for interchange development options for a new connection to I-10 at Wildwood Canyon Road. Our team was selected based on our dedicated local experts, familiarity with the project area, experience working with the City of Yucaipa and its staff as well as with SBCTA and Caltrans District 8, and innovative interchange design concepts to provide compatibility with the local roadway network in the City of Yucaipa and regional interface with I-10. Upon completion of the PID Phase in October 2021, HDR was selected to continue services for PA&ED with the City of Yucaipa. The team recently completed the Public Scoping Meeting and community outreach as the initial efforts of the PA&ED process. During this phase, HDR will finalize the traffic operational analysis, alternative analysis, and environmental technical studies to support the draft and final environmental document based on the project footprint. ERP was responsible for preparing CEQA/NEPA air quality and GHG emissions, and transportation conformity analysis and documentation. F&P completed the Traffic Study in support of the PSR for the I-10/Wildwood new connection. Specifically, they developed a calibrated VISSIM microsimulation model to test traffic operations with and without the new interchange. After completing the traffic work in support of the PSR, F&P has continued their support into the PA&ED Phase of the project. As part of that effort, they are leading the VMT assessment, including development and coordination with a Delphi panel to develop different land use assumptions with and without the interchange. This information will be included in the VMT assessment in support of the VMT analysis as part of the environmental document. MBI was responsible for developing the Conceptual Drainage Study, onsite and offsite drainage layout, preliminary drainage estimates, and preparation of the preliminary SWDR. Additional MBI services included Preliminary Drainage Study, preliminary drainage layout, preliminary SWDR, and preparation of the PSR and New Connection Report. PW conducted desktop Cultural and Paleontological Resources Studies as required for the Preliminary Environmental Analysis Report (PEAR). Upon approval of the Preliminary Environment Study, PW was contracted to prepare a Historic Property Survey Report (HPSR), Historical Resources Evaluation Report (HRER), and Archaeological Survey Report (ASR) to further analyze impacts to cultural resources and determine appropriate minimization and mitigation measures to reduce potential impacts. FIRMS INVOLVED: HDR, ERP, F&P, MBI, PW STAFF MEMBERS: • Brooke Bannasch* • Julian Hernandez* • Uyenlan Vu* • Jason Pack (F&P)* • Brad Losey (MBI)* • Mark Hager • Angie Kung • Sarah Barrera • Jim Starick • Jason Brown • Kristine Kono-Woo • Roberta Thomas (PW) RELEVANT FEATURES: • Traffic Operational Analysis • Environmental Technical Studies • Draft and Final Environmental Document • Alternative Analysis • Community Outreach 07 HDR partnered with Caltrans District 8 to develop interchange and local roadway alternatives for this new interchange while avoiding impacts to the Wildwood Safety Roadside Rest Area (SRRA). The HDR Team will utilize the effective Concept Alternative screening and consensus-building approach that was successfully used for the I-10/Wildwood Canyon Road Interchange PID and PA&ED. VALUE ADDED STAKEHOLDERS INVOLVED * Key Personnel All staff are HDR unless otherwise noted Ethanac Expressway PID TLMA | Riverside County, CA MBI is leading the collective effort to establish the likely corridor alignment and modal opportunities for creating this connection. Once completed, SR-74 from the Hemet/San Jacinto area will be directly connected to I-15 via Ethanac, the existing SR-74 alignment in Riverside County, and Nichols Road. TLMA has identified cross-county connectivity as a critical mobility component for its residents. As such, they have identified the CETAP corridors to look at those potential connections between I-15 and I-215. Two major components of that connectivity currently being contemplated are the Cajalco Road widening project (in the environmental stage right now) and the Ethanac Expressway corridor. The comprehensive Corridor Vision Study is providing recommendations for the number of lanes, intersection spacing, bicycle lanes, bus stop routes, future public transit uses, pedestrian uses, and multi-use trails for the entire 12-mile Ethanac Expressway. The study is evaluating multi-modal options, including transit and active transportation concepts, as these mobility options are essential components of a comprehensive system. The extension of Ethanac Road as a direct route would require building an approximately two-mile “missing link” from where the road terminates at the east bank of the San Jacinto River westerly to connect to SR-74 in Meadowbrook. Engineering and environmental assessments will be completed for the two-mile Nichols Road gap, and two-mile Ethanac Road gap to scope future project development phases. MBI completed the Preliminary Drainage Study, Preliminary Drainage Layout, and Preliminary SWDR. F&P completed a comprehensive transportation assessment to extend Ethanac to SR-74 (both to the west and via a grade separation to the east) and extend Nichols Road to connect to SR-74 to the east. They completed a multitude of travel demand forecasts to assist in identifying when parallel infrastructure degrades operationally and to develop a delivery strategy for the County. HDR completed the geometric design, provided corridor-wide utility research, developed cost estimates and right-of-way needs, and led a site tour with elected county and city staff to explain the roadway alignments considered in the PID Phase.

This area is growing rapidly and this project experience provides the most up-to-date information about development growth, traffic, and other projects planned for the area. This provides our team with an extensive understanding of the City’s design standards, circulation element, and current and planned development. VALUE ADDED STAKEHOLDERS INVOLVED * Key Personnel All staff are HDR unless otherwise noted I-15 Railroad Canyon Road Interchange PA&ED and PS&E RCTC | Lake Elsinore, CA HDR was selected by RCTC to widen I-15, reconstruct the existing Railroad Canyon Road Interchange, and construct a new Type L-1 interchange approximately 0.22 miles north of the existing Franklin Street to reduce local street congestion and freeway ramp congestion, and accommodate projected growth in the area. The project limits are from approximately 1.50 miles south of Railroad Canyon Road to Main Street. Due to limited funding and the requirement to serve the existing and projected traffic demands, the project was divided into two segments with logical termini. One of the project challenges was developing an extensive environmental re-validation due to additional freeway work beyond the initial Area of Potential Effects. The team authored the re-validation and obtained Caltrans District 8 approval of the document. The I-15/Railroad Canyon Road Interchange provided a ramp intersection directly across from a local business. We maintained close coordination with Caltrans District 8 to obtain the necessary approvals for this configuration, optimizing access to the business. The team led the process to obtain Caltrans Headquarters’ geometric concurrence by demonstrating that full access could be provided to the property while obtaining the highest traffic level of service for ramp operations. The team also conducted several in-field focus meetings with the various utility companies to collaborate on utility impacts and relocation concepts.

VALUE ADDED STAKEHOLDERS INVOLVED * Key Personnel All staff are HDR unless otherwise noted Auto Center Drive/Casino Drive Bridge Seismic Retrofit City of Lake Elsinore | Lake Elsinore, CA The existing Auto Center Drive bridge was constructed in 1957 over the San Jacinto River and is owned and maintained by the City. Auto Center Drive is a critical link in the City’s transportation network. A significant four-lane, north-south highway parallel to I-15 and Lakeshore Drive, this street carries approximately 7,400 vehicles per day and links commercial and residential districts to the Railroad Canyon Road Interchange. This bridge has been identified by Caltrans District 8 for formal seismic evaluation, including safety improvements which incorporate barrier railing upgrades and sidewalk additions. HDR is responsible for performing technical studies, preliminary analyses, and coordinating meetings to determine the seismic retrofit strategy. Once the final project scope is selected, the PS&E documents will be prepared for contract bidding. We will also provide construction support services to ensure complete and accurate construction of the seismic retrofit strategy and full compliance with environmental commitments and permit requirements. GUIDA provided topographic and record Landnet surveys for the purpose of the Auto Center Drive Bridge Seismic Retrofit and Deck Rehabilitation.

VALUE ADDED STAKEHOLDERS INVOLVED * Key Personnel All staff are HDR unless otherwise noted SR-133 (Laguna Canyon Road) PSR-PDS City of Laguna Beach | Laguna Beach, CA The project proposes to construct improvements along the SR-133 corridor. This portion of SR-133, also known as Laguna Canyon Road (LCR), consists of a two-lane highway with a center turn lane and limited shoulders. The right-of-way is constrained by residential and light commercial land uses, as well as various trails, park uses, institutional uses, and open space. LCR is further constrained by SCE’s overhead transmission and distribution line poles in close proximity to the travel way within the Clear Recovery Zone (CRZ) that pose potential safety concerns. Furthermore, the existing roadway lacks pedestrian paths, sidewalks, or a designated bikeway, forcing pedestrians and bicyclists to use the limited shoulders to gain access to the various businesses, schools, recreational trails, and transit stops along LCR. Traffic demand is already at capacity during weekday AM and PM peak hours and during most summer weekends and holidays due to the proximity to the Pacific Ocean, as well as multiple adjacent recreational facilities and trails. This high-traffic demand and resulting vehicle queuing, coupled with the lack of traffic breaks, protected left-turn movements, and inadequate shoulders, contributes to a high concentration of accidents within the project limits. The implementation plan of traffic improvements includes complete streets elements such as dedicated pedestrian paths/sidewalks and bicycle lanes as well as safety improvements. HDR developed some state-of-the-art multi-modal traffic operations analysis techniques based on the latest Highway Capacity Manual 6th Edition methodologies that allowed for the alternative analysis of multi-modal improvements and allowed the project development team to compare the set of improvements and determine which alternative would provide the highest level of benefits to the modes within the corridor. Ultimately, the final set of alternatives included improved geometrics with safety features, pedestrian and bicycle facilities, and transit improvements that would increase the utility of transit in the corridor. GUIDA provided aerial topographic mapping for this project, working with Caltrans Survey Division to coordinate standards and collect existing mapping and as-builts before conducting survey work. The surveys were performed in accordance with the current Caltrans Survey Manuals. Work not covered by the manuals was performed in accordance with accepted professional surveying standards as approved by Caltrans.

City of Bakersfield, Manor Street Bridge over Kern River PS&E, Bakersfield, CA. Structures Lead. Daniel was responsible for the seismic retrofit strategy and HBP-funded widening. The project consists of two parallel two-lane bridges with 13 spans founded on pier walls within the Kern River. The bridge is located within sensitive habitats requiring retrofit and widening solutions that minimize disturbance to the river bottom. To accomplish this, a retrofit strategy was developed which did not require additional footing work to carry the widening. Daniel coordinated these permits from California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW), U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE), U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS), and the Regional Water Quality Control Board (RWQCB) for both the geotechnical field borings and PS&E. City of Lake Elsinore, Temescal Canyon Bridge Replacement Over Temescal Creek PS&E, Lake Elsinore, CA. Lead Bridge Engineer. Daniel was responsible for the bridge design for the HBP-funded PS&E for the new Temescal Canyon Bridge Over Temescal Creek. The bridge is a three-span four-lane structure over the natural bottom of Temescal Creek. The bridge design uses a precast girder superstructure founded on nine-foot-diameter CIDH piles which minimizes construction impacts on the environmentally sensitive natural bottom creek. The bridge is designed for up to 19 feet of scour which eliminates the need for scour protection at the piers, further reducing the environmental impacts. City of Oxnard, Rice Avenue/Fifth Street Grade Separation PA&ED and PS&E, Oxnard, CA. Structures Lead. Daniel was responsible for the structure APS at the PSR phase for the Rice Avenue Grade Separation over 5th Street and Union Pacific Railroad (UP). HDR was responsible for delivering the PA&ED and the 100% PS&E to elevate Rice Avenue over the Santa Barbara Subdivision of UP and SR-34 in the City of Oxnard and County of Ventura. The project scope involved developing feasible design alternatives, preparation of Project Report, and ensuring the design parameters followed the UP-BNSF Guidelines for Railroad Grade Separation “ RES-12 City of Lake Elsinore Engineering Department, I-15 Nichols Road Interchange Improvement Project PSR-PDS | Section 2: Technical Proposal B. Proposed Staffing and Project Organization City of Camarillo, Camarillo Hills Drain Replacement at Ventura Boulevard PA&ED and PS&E, Camarillo, CA. Project Manager. Daniel was responsible for the scoping, environmental document, and PS&E for the replacement of the Camarillo Hills Drain under Ventura Boulevard and Las Posas Road. Daniel oversaw the scoping study to determine the most feasible replacement, which included structure analysis, traffic studies, and staging concepts as the Reinforced Concrete Box (RCB) runs diagonally under the intersection of Ventura Boulevard and Las Posas Road which cannot be closed during replacement. Daniel is currently leading the CEQA and NEPA clearance as well as the preliminary engineering. City of San Dimas, Foothill Boulevard over San Dimas Wash, San Dimas, CA. Project Manager. Daniel was responsible for the PS&E of the Foothill Boulevard widening over San Dimas Wash. The project includes the design of a single-span slab bridge widening over the San Dimas Wash on both sides of Foothill Boulevard, widening the roadway approaches, channel improvements, modification to the channel maintenance access points at three locations, and removal of portions of the existing bridge over the wash. Daniel coordinated the various design tasks with the Los Angeles County Department of Public Works and USACE on the maintenance roads, right-of-way, stormwater quality, channel modifications, and structure review. City of Ventura, US-101 California Street Off-Ramp Realignment (PA&ED), Ventura, CA. Structure Lead. Daniel is responsible for the structure APSs in support of the PSR/PR. The project includes moving the existing California Street off-ramp to Oak Street. As a result, the team is preparing an APS for replacement of the existing California Street bridge that will be extended to accommodate two exit lanes under the east end. An APS is also needed for a 300-foot-long special retaining wall needed along an existing business parking lot to reduce project impacts to the local businesses. LA Metro/City of Industry, SR-57/SR-60 Interchange Improvements PS&E, Industry and Diamond Bar, CA. Engineering Lead. Daniel was responsible for the proposed improvements of the Grand Avenue Interchange on SR-60, and the associated freeway mainline and connector improvements on the SR-60 and SR-57 confluences. The project involves preparing the PID, PA&ED documents, and final PS&E for the $316M improvements to implement a long-term fix on the SR-60 and SR-57 segments where the two freeways share a common alignment at Grand Avenue. The project is being developed by LA Metro and City of Industry in cooperation with the City of Diamond Bar and Caltrans District 7. City of Ventura, Main Street Bridge over Ventura River Replacement (Scoping and PA&ED) Document, Ventura, CA. Project Manager. Daniel is responsible for preparing the Preliminary Engineering, Environmental Documents, and 35 percent Plans Scoping Document for the Main Street Bridge over Ventura River. Main Street Bridge is comprised of two separate but adjoining 1,200-foot CIP bridges, which are supported by 20 reinforced concrete piers, with an average pier spacing of 60 feet, constructed over spread footings. Though the bridge is in relatively good shape for an 85-year-old structure, the bridge suffered an extreme settlement event in the 1997 flood, causing a span to drop three feet. In the scoping phase, we prepared a Caltrans-approved bridge replacement as the scour countermeasure. The project is currently in the PA&ED Phase.

Project Understanding and Approach 20 City of Lake Elsinore Engineering Department, I-15 Nichols Road Interchange Improvement Project PSR-PDS | Section 2: Technical Proposal C. Project Understanding and Approach C. Project Understanding and Approach In this section, the HDR Team will demonstrate our understanding of the Project’s local setting and constraints, our approach to identify and develop solutions to meet Project objectives, and our work plan to execute the required scope to obtain PID Phase approval resulting in PSR-PDS concurrence with Caltrans District 8. Project Understanding I-15 through western Riverside County was originally constructed in 1980. At that time, Nichols Road was realigned to the south and the I-15 Nichols Road Interchange, ramps and the overcrossing at I-15 were completed. When Nichols Road was shifted to the south, a triple Reinforced Concrete Box culvert was placed under the roadway at the Temescal Creek crossing to convey flows in the creek, and the intersection with Collier Avenue was improved. I-15 has both regional and local significance as a primary north-south corridor connecting other regional centers and communities to new housing developments which continue to emerge in the foothills along the I-15 and Nichols Road corridors. I-15 and the adjacent interchange at I-15/ SR-74 (Central Avenue) experience high levels of traffic congestion, most notably during the peak hours and on weekends, where volumes are the highest, resulting in substantial delays for retail business patrons and residents. Due to this congestion, many Elsinore Valley residents use Nichols Road as a bypass route into the City and to enter the Outlets at Lake Elsinore or to gain access to the lake. Nichols Road provides access to recreation destinations like the Cleveland National Forest as well as connectivity to Southern Orange County via the SR-74 crossing. As identified in the TLMA Ethanac Expressway PID Project, Nichols Road would ultimately be realigned and connect eastward to SR-74, which is defined ultimately as a six-lane facility. This, combined with the extension of Ethanac Expressway to SR-74, will connect critical infrastructure to provide east-west connectivity in this area of Western Riverside County. This corridor will become even more important in the future when Ethanac Road will be grade separated from the railroad that parallels I-215 and connect to SR-74 to the east, providing a continuous east-west corridor connecting the San Jacinto/Hemet area directly to Lake Elsinore. The east-west connectivity noted above will be further supported by other key I-15 corridor improvements, including the extension of express lanes from South Corona to Lake Elsinore (the I-15 ELPSE that is currently in the environmental review stage with Caltrans District 8 and RCTC) and the future extension of HOV lanes on I-15 from the ELPSE terminus to Temecula. RCTC is also considering implementing a freeway corridor adaptive ramp metering (CARM) system that would monitor freeway mainline congestion and would implement and actively adjust on-ramp metering rates to manage mainline congestion. The CARM system will be phased on I-15 and implemented in the southbound direction along the Nichols Road On-ramp. The Project should include considerations related to CARM implementation in this area. All of the above regional activities combined with locally planned development around the I-15 Nichols Road Interchange support the need to plan for the future and begin the process to validate the interchange is appropriately designed to serve this connectivity. Under the proposed Project, the City, along with Caltrans District 8, TLMA, and RCTC, will improve local street network access and regional interchange operations to access the growing developments in this portion of Lake Elsinore at I-15 and the I-15 Nichols Road Interchange to enhance multi-modal connectivity and provide more efficient local circulation. Transportation planning between local and regional facilities is important to adequately plan for future development with the high rate of growth occurring in the area and establish the appropriate access control limits. The HDR Team can streamline the delivery process for the City. Our team’s collective local and I-15 corridor knowledge, staff continuity and availability can be leveraged along with our current working relationships with Caltrans District 8, RCTC and TLMA to provide context-sensitive solutions at Project kick-off. Based on preliminary traffic findings, the existing I-15 Nichols Road Interchange may be preserved as a diamond interchange as the team evaluates interim and ultimate operational needs. 21 City of Lake Elsinore Engineering Department, I-15 Nichols Road Interchange Improvement Project PSR-PDS | Section 2: Technical Proposal C. Project Understanding and Approach The City is committed to studying the I-15 Nichols Road Interchange to serve continued development. Under the recommendation of this Project, the City looks to improve regional access for its residents and businesses, while planning for future growth. The local experience of the HDR Team recognizes the City’s goals and vision for the I-15 Nichols Road Interchange and surrounding area to addresses the following goals: •Relieve congestion by improving traffic operations •Increase local access with improved reliability for City residents and visitors by reducing congestion in the vicinity of I-15 and Nichols Road •Accommodate planned housing and commercial developments •Minimize impacts to local businesses and residents •Improve safety for both bicyclists and pedestrians by adding sidewalks and bicycle paths •Upgrade the I-15 Nichols Road Interchange for compatibility with future Ethanac Expressway and I-15 ELPSE traffic volumes •Relieve heavy AM and PM peak hour volumes in the northbound and southbound directions of I-15, respectively The HDR Team has worked with similar local road and traffic circulation constraints associated with the I-15/SR-74 (Central Avenue) Interchange and will leverage our experience to identify opportunities associated with the I-15 Nichols Road Interchange. Currently, our proposed team members are delivering the RCTC I-15 ELPSE and City of Lake Elsinore I-15/SR-74 (Central Avenue) Interchange Improvement projects by completing PA&ED collaboratively with the City, RCTC and Caltrans District 8, which provides the City with continuity in decisions made both locally and regionally. Our team is also completing the City of Lake Elsinore Temescal Canyon Bridge Replacement Over Temescal Creek PS&E Project, just upstream of the Nichols Road crossing with Temescal Creek, which provides consistency in identifying flow rates, conveyance requirements, and water surface elevations and flow regimes which influence the bridge design over Temescal Creek for the Project. Close coordination with the adjacent I-15/SR-74 (Central Avenue) Interchange, Ethanac Expressway and the I-15 ELPSE Project by the HDR Team will balance freeway operations on this segment of I-15 within Riverside County to meet the needs of local and regional traffic traveling in this area. Additionally, our team is poised with collective local knowledge and personnel continuity, along with key personnel availability, which will contribute to streamlining the delivery of the PSR-PDS with our immediately available expertise and knowledge, including our recent working relationships with Caltrans District 8, RCTC and TLMA. Since the City has a fully executed Cooperative Agreement already signed with Caltrans District 8, the HDR Team can start evaluating the Project area upon NTP. The HDR Team has information we have already collected on sensitive noise receptors in the area, the existing flow information we have already obtained for Temescal Creek, existing topographic mapping and elevations that we can utilize for our geometric alternatives as well as previous environmental studies in the area, and traffic planning from neighboring projects in the area that our HDR Team can use to validate for this Project. The HDR Team has been working together on a consistent basis for many years in this area and understands the City’s need to plan the I-15 Nichols Road Interchange for future development needs. The City, in conjunction with RCTC, TLMA, and Caltrans District 8, is moving forward with the Project and the HDR Team is prepared to deliver this Project, in partnership with the stakeholders. Nichols Road will become a major east-west corridor with the future extension of Ethanac Expressway. HDR has experience assisting clients in identifying funding opportunities including low water crossings. 22Section 2: Technical Proposal City of Lake Elsinore Engineering Department, I-15 Nichols Road Interchange Improvement Project PSR-PDS | Section 2: Technical Proposal C.

From the team’s understanding of traffic, noise-sensitive receptors, environmental constraints and future express lane tolling compatibility from our work on the RCTC I-15 ELPSE PA&ED, TLMA Ethanac Expressway PID, and City of Lake Elsinore I-15/SR-74 (Central Avenue) Interchange Improvement Project PA&ED, and our understanding of Temescal Creek from our adjacent bridge work just downstream of the Project. The HDR Team has knowledge of the existing area and planned future projects, an established working relationship, experience on similar Caltrans District 8 projects, and information compiled from our current projects we can utilize from day one, to expedite the start of the Project. Based on our local understanding, we have identified constraints related to the expected improvements scoped for this Project and have developed the following Project Constraints Map shown on Figure 2.C.1. 23 City of Lake Elsinore Engineering Department, I-15 Nichols Road Interchange Improvement Project PSR-PDS | Section 2: Technical Proposal C. Project Understanding and Approach SITE CONSTRAINTS Vehicles exit I-15 at Nichols Road and head west to access the Outlets at Lake Elsinore, the Park & Ride lot, as a bypass route into the City from SR-74 (Central Avenue), entry into residential neighborhoods along Lake Street, and to access launch ramps and campsites at Lake Elsinore for recreation. The future Nichols Road is planned to be a major east-west connection between the I-15 and I-215 freeways. With the residential and retail development planned immediately adjacent to the I-15 Nichols Road Interchange, future traffic demands and land-use changes will need to be understood to properly plan for this interchange. Along Nichols Road, on the east end of the I-15 Interchange, there is an existing quarry, Chandler Aggregates Inc., in operation with large trucks entering and exiting from a driveway along the north side of the road. On the southern side of the road on the same side of the interchange, a residential community is being constructed by Meritage Homes as well as a mixed commercial development that will be developed adjacent to the northbound exit ramp. On the western side of the I-15 Nichols Road Interchange, there is an ARCO gas station on the southern side of the road near the intersection of Nichols Road with Collier Avenue which has high right-in/right-out movements from both Nichols Road and Collier Avenue with a raised median separating traffic in each direction. Due to the large difference in the floodplain elevations along Collier Avenue and the ARCO station, preservation of traffic and pedestrian circulation for the site will be important for not only this location but for other future property owners in the area. Directly across from the intersection of Collier Avenue with Nichols Road, another development is planned to open in 2023 that will be a phased development with a planned 7-11, fast food and retail. With many future developments planned in the area, many driveways will be in proximity of the intersections of both Collier Avenue and the I-15 ramps along Nichols Road. Driveway access and coordination with property owners is important for the Project’s successful delivery. Moving farther west from the intersection of Collier Avenue and Nichols Road, Temescal Creek is a low water crossing that is prone to flooding during larger storm events and is closed to traffic a few times per year. The creek is in a FEMA regulatory floodway that cannot have fill placed within specific limits and needs to accommodate 100- and 500-year flows. It is our understanding that the City would like to replace this low water crossing with a structure in part because the RCBs under the roadway that convey creek flows, are no longer acceptable to Western Riverside County Regional Conservation Authority (RCA). After crossing the floodplain to the west there is an existing sewer pump station at the intersection with Pierce Street that need to be preserved. Also running throughout this entire area are numerous overhead transmission and distribution utility lines that will need to be identified and coordinated when evaluating preliminary geometry alternatives. Preservation of the creek’s wildlife corridors and reduction of floodplain impacts will be used in evaluating project alternatives as well as analyzing traffic and future planned development. Installing bicycle routes and ADA-compliant pedestrian access throughout the Project consistent with the City’s Active Transportation Plan, Active LE is another important aspect of the Project. Our teams’ relationships with stakeholders will be key in beginning early coordination for these important project features. We also have working relationships with RCFC&WCD, TLMA, RCTC and Caltrans District 8 to coordinate and obtain solutions early in the PID process. Multiple transmission and distribution overhead lines are located within the Project limits which will be evaluated for protection and relocation. Existing businesses such as the Outlets at Lake Elsinore generate a high demand for traffic along Nichols Road. The HDR Team understands the importance of maintaining pedestrian and vehicular access to key sites such as the ARCO gas station. Temescal Creek is a sensitive regulatory floodplain where jurisdictional water impacts will be minimized when evaluating bridge and roadway alignments. 24 City of Lake Elsinore Engineering Department, I-15 Nichols Road Interchange Improvement Project PSR-PDS | Section 2: Technical Proposal C. Project Understanding and Approach Proposed Project The proposed Project will provide improved connectivity and increase multi-modal access for residents within the City and accommodate the City’s planned economic development around the area of proposed interchange improvements, support efficient goods movement through the I-15 corridor, improve emergency vehicle access and provide additional evacuation routes for the surrounding community. These components are consistent with the Climate Action Plan for Transportation Infrastructure (CAPTI) goals as developed by the California State Transportation Agency. The primary purpose of the Project is to improve access to I-15, local roads, businesses and planned developments adjacent to the Nichols Road Interchange. Additionally, the interchange improvements will reduce congestion and improve traffic operations on Nichols Road and at the intersection of Collier Avenue. The Traffic Study for the I-15 Nichols Road Interchange will consider current, and future (2050) travel demands on the I-15 corridor, and the local street network in Lake Elsinore. The HDR Team recognizes many underlying issues in the area, as we are working on the RCTC I-15 ELPSE PA&ED, City of Lake Elsinore I-15/SR-74 (Central Avenue) Interchange Improvement Project PA&ED, and the City of Lake Elsinore Temescal Canyon Bridge Replacement Over Temescal Creek PS&E, all within the immediate area. Our team is uniquely aware of several factors that influence the traffic circulation of this area and are discussed in this proposal. The Project is intended to achieve the following; •Operational acceptability •Integration of the future planned projects in the area •Minimization of impacts in the Temescal Creek floodplain and other environmental resources •ICE (Step 1) •Complete streets and multi-modal planning •Estimate and program the capital outlay support cost necessary to complete the studies and work needed during PA&ED CONCEPT ALTERNATIVE DEVELOPMENT The HDR Team proposes to develop three feasible build alternatives as outlined in the Scope of Work following development of various concepts and input from the PDT and stakeholders under the PID Phase. HDR will develop independent interchange and local street/intersection solutions that can be combined to compliment operational benefits for both local and regional traffic demands. Alternative development will be based on a context-sensitive solution approach given our collective knowledge of environmental resources from other studies we have completed locally as a team and understanding of right-of-way and local development, while being aware of the need to meet onsite treatment of stormwater prior to discharge into the local creek/floodplain. Initial screening of potential alternatives will be conducted qualitatively to evaluate impacts, potential costs and benefits as well as intersection control evaluations to assess the most practical interface of traffic circulation elements. Interchange concepts and local road concepts will initially be evaluated independently to address their individual site constraints and complexities and then thoughtfully combined into feasible alternatives to address the Project’s purpose and need. Validating the early build alternative concepts against traffic data and operational assessments will provide the City and Caltrans District 8 the confidence to proceed with a focused Project footprint and efficient build alternatives. Early identification and discussion of geometric design challenges is critical. Some challenges include the required minimum spacing between the Nichols Road On- and Off-Ramp intersections, local intersections and driveways. Even more important is the ability to implement practical and acceptable solutions that minimize impacts to the floodplain. The HDR Team has developed concepts as part of this proposal to minimize the Project footprint, maximize operational benefits, and provide technical transparency of our ideas while we meet and, in some cases, balance the Caltrans Highway Design Manual standards with expected operational influences that we have already studied in the area. The HDR Team has the unique ability to provide coordination and updates to the City on adjacent projects. Concepts need to be compatible with the RCTC planned Express Lanes and adjacent I-15/SR-74 improvements in this corridor which the HDR Team leads. HDR’s experience on key adjacent projects such as the City of Lake Elsinore I-15/ SR-74 (Central Avenue) PA&ED, TLMA Ethanac Expressway PID, and the RCTC I-15 ELPSE PA&ED provides consistency and understanding of local and regional traffic needs in this area. 25Section 2: Technical Proposal City of Lake Elsinore Engineering Department, I-15 Nichols Road Interchange Improvement Project PSR-PDS | Section 2: Technical Proposal C.

We considered the utility of an interchange that can be phased to meet the delivery and growth timeline of the City. HDR’s interchange concepts, detailed on Figure 2.C.2, will lead to the development and early screening of alternatives and support the Project purpose and need by: •Accommodating existing and future local and regional traffic operations •Enhancing safety along congested off-ramps and at the adjacent local intersections •Improving operations on Nichols Road and I-15 to meet the needs of a growing area serving both local and regional traffic demands •Maintaining access to local roads and businesses adjacent to Nichols Road •Minimizing right-of-way impacts to existing and future developments •Reducing impacts to sensitive environmental resources such as the Temescal Creek floodplain •Eliminating utility impacts such as avoiding the transmission towers and adjacent sewer lift station •Providing roadway alignment alternatives with bridge structures that clear the Temescal Creek floodplain and the resulting roadway alignment influence on the I-15 ramps, overcrossing, and existing intersection at Collier Avenue and Nichols Road •Compatibility with future planned projects •Providing fundable and cost efficient alternatives Interchange concepts on this page and the following pages were developed and objectively evaluated by our team. Benefits and Challenges have been identified to optimize the circulation elements directly related to local and regional traffic interfaces at I-15. Various combinations of interchange configurations and local road concepts can be combined based on inter-compatibility with developed concept alternatives. •Increases intersection spacing •Low capital cost •Utilizes existing Nichols Rd OC •Remains within existing CT R/W •Limited environmental impacts •Maintains business access •Streamlines constructibility •Requires no FHWA approval BENEFITS •Non-standard intersection spacing •Limits operational improvements •Reduces corner sight distance CHALLENGES INTERCHANGE CONCEPT 2 - TIGHT DIAMOND INTERCHANGE • Optimizes connectivity to Ethanac Expressway •Improves operations by removing SB off-ramp left turn •Utilizes existing Nichols Rd OC •Maintains business access- Streamlines constructibility BENEFITS • Increases capital cost •Non-standard intersection spacing •Environmental & R/W impacts to ARCO •FHWA approval required CHALLENGES INTERCHANGE CONCEPT 3 - DIAMOND INTERCHANGE WITH SB LOOP OFF-RAMP 26Section 2: Technical Proposal City of Lake Elsinore Engineering Department, I-15 Nichols Road Interchange Improvement Project PSR-PDS | Section 2: Technical Proposal C.

Project Understanding and Approach LOCAL ROADS CONCEPTS Nichols Road will be upgraded to an Urban Arterial per the City’s General Plan, which provides three lanes in each direction for traveling vehicles and Class II bicycle routes and sidewalks throughout the Project area. Similar to the interchange concepts and outside Caltrans District 8 access control limits, local roads will be evaluated using a context-sensitive solution approach, while minimizing impacts to the floodplain and future developments. The local road concepts and interchange concepts can be combined based on the effectiveness of each independently. A preferred local road concept will be selected with input from Project stakeholders and combined with the preferred interchange concept to create the best overall solution to accommodate future growth and traffic at this location. The HDR Team has included local road geometric concepts, shown as Figure 2.C.3, on the following page to demonstrate how comprehensively we have looked at the Project area. Our emphasis focused on innovative solutions to develop compact yet effective options for consideration by the City and Caltrans District 8.

This was a very effective tool the HDR Team has used for SBCTA I-215/University Parkway and City of Yucaipa I-10/Wildwood Canyon Road Interchange PDTs. ALTERNATIVE SCREENING The HDR Team has already obtained the required information needed to evaluate the Project, collected from working in the area over recent years, which has provided us with location- specific knowledge to understand the local and future circulation of the area and local constraints. The HDR Team has developed multiple interchange and local road concepts during this proposal period. The concepts we considered can be phased to meet the delivery and growth timeline of the City as well as the expenditure plan for the community and its residents while evaluating the existing and future needs of the City. HDR’s Interchange and local road concepts, illustrated in this proposal and detailed in Figure 2.C.2 and Figure 2.C.3, will lead to the development, early screening, and support of viable alternatives that will meet the Project purpose and need. Nichols Road will become a major east-west corridor where operational efficiencies are critical when evaluating local access and intersection spacing. The HDR Team has considered multiple alignment options to optimize bridge spans and profile needs over Temescal Creek. Locations of intersections and driveways have been evaluated based on the need to raise the future roadway profile grade. 28Section 2: Technical Proposal City of Lake Elsinore Engineering Department, I-15 Nichols Road Interchange Improvement Project PSR-PDS | Section 2: Technical Proposal C.

Project Understanding and Approach Technical Approach and Work Plan The HDR Team’s strategy and approach to the completion of the PID Phase is to fully understand the key issues that influence the planning, traffic operations, environmental impacts, site constraints, economic limitations, construction considerations, and quality of life in the community while expanding on key decisions that are relevant in this planning phase. The primary objectives of the PID Phase completed by the HDR Team will include the following: •Develop a clear purpose and need for the I-15 Nichols Road Interchange that is acceptable to Caltrans District 8 and is complementary of the City’s General Plan •Identify sensitive areas (e.g., Temescal Creek, floodplain, biological, cultural, and paleontological sensitive areas) and major transverse or longitudinal utilities early in the process to enable the engineering team to account for impacts which could escalate Project costs, delay environmental document approval, and trigger regulatory permitting •Build consensus through appropriate coordination of the interchange build alternatives to be considered in the PSR and make recommendations for the best alternatives to be further evaluated during PA&ED •Define risks for design exceptions with early discussion of applicable standards related to interchange, intersection, local roads and driveway spacing •Identify preliminary costs and additional impacts to meet design standards for existing and proposed nonstandard features •Prepare construction cost estimates using phased construction periods consistent with local and regional traffic demands •Provide sustainable and incremental improvements using “build year” dollars in determining phase costs for the ramps, local roads, and the Temescal Creek and freeway bridge structures •Rank mainline, ramp, and local roadway benefits such as ICE options, LOS, and safety analyses for viable phased alternatives through early interchange screening and qualitative scoring The primary step in this strategy is having the right team of dedicated experts who know the issues, and have worked in the local area, including I-15 ELPSE and the local traffic interface at existing or proposed interchanges, and most importantly, have interchange design experience with Caltrans District 8, critical knowledge of the adjacent projects, and operational elements. Additionally, the HDR Team understands the delivery obligations associated with the Project and the processes in order to set up a solid product eligible for potential funding sources during the PA&ED Phase. It is critical for the Project Manager and the team to understand the required elements in design and construction to develop a reasonable environmental footprint for the improvements. Combined with HDR’s commitment to quality and project control, our technical approach will result in at least three interchange concepts and a local road concept for further evaluation during the PA&ED Phase. We are committed to the stakeholders with a dedicated team to deliver a comprehensive PSR-PDS to evaluate and screen several build alternatives for further study. The delivery of the PSR-PDS will follow a logical six-step work plan process which we have illustrated to the right on Figure 2.C.4 to summarize the efforts we will carry out for the City in conjunction with the stakeholders for the PID Phase. Specifically developed for this Project, the Task Listing and Responsibility Matrix shown as Table 2.C.1 on page 37 incorporates our work plan tasks and provides a sequential “road map” for the successful completion of the Project. Each work element corresponds to a defined task within the City’s Scope of Work and is correlated to a Caltrans Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) code. Additional deliverables not defined in the scope that must be completed as part of this PID Phase are also included. The diagram depicts the following key information related to the Project’s work flow: •The dependence and relationship between work elements •The points within the workflow where Caltrans District 8 must be engaged in order to gain concurrence or approval •The path of the proposed workflow depicted by a series of blue arrows connecting the work elements Work elements, which if not engaged or completed properly, have the potential to disrupt or delay the completion of the PID Phase. Additionally, critical elements are divided by discipline so team members can be more aware of the discipline-specific deliverables that are key in the workflow for the Project.

Project Understanding and Approach Existing Key Information The HDR Team will leverage the existing information to the maximum extent possible to prepare the PSR-PDS: •Traffic Counts from I-15 ELPSE PA&ED and I-15/SR-74 (Central Avenue) PA&ED •Caltrans Transportation Concept Reports •County of Riverside General Plans •City of Lake Elsinore General Plan •City of Lake Elsinore General Plan Circulation Element •Ethanac Expressway Traffic Study •City of Lake Elsinore Active Transportation Plan, Active LE •Engineering and Environmental Studies prepared for I-15 ELPSE PA&ED and I-15/SR-74 (Central Avenue) PA&ED •Right-of-Way and Topographic Mapping from I-15 ELPSE PA&ED and I-15/SR-74 (Central Avenue) PA&ED •Caltrans As-Builts •County/City As-Builts •Utility Information from I-15 ELPSE PA&ED and I-15/SR-74 (Central Avenue) PA&ED Traffic TRAFFIC ENGINEERING PERFORMANCE ASSESSMENT The purpose of the TEPA is twofold: (1) to assist in establishing the interchange footprint that will be used in the PEAR and carried into the environmental phase of the Project, and (2) to scope the transportation assessment requirements that will be used during the environmental phase of the Project. Given the purpose of the TEPA, Caltrans District 8 does not require extensive traffic forecasting or transportation analysis, rather it requires us to utilize recent and available information as part of the process. The HDR Team is uniquely qualified to utilize the available information, including our work on the TLMA Ethanac Expressway PID, City of Lake Elsinore I-15/SR-74 (Central Avenue) Interchange Improvement Project PA&ED, and RCTC I-15 ELPSE PA&ED. As such, the TEPA will borrow extensively from these projects to assist in defining an interchange footprint that meets the design requirements anticipated for the area. Working with the Project team, we will utilize the available traffic information to identify potential interchange configurations that would satisfy the purpose and need for the Project. The TEPA will complete Step 1 of a two-step ICE assessment process for this PID Phase of the Project. The final component of the TEPA is to scope the transportation analysis that will be refined during the PA&ED process, including the methodologies and assumptions for the TOAR. The TEPA will also complete a Step 1 ICE assessment to look at potential traffic control devices at the interchange and screen the potential for innovative traffic control (such as roundabouts, DDIs, or other control considerations). Any potential traffic control devices that are not screened out during this phase of the ICE will be carried into the PA&ED Phase and included in the Step 2 ICE assessment. The final consideration within the TEPA will be a preliminary assessment for SB 743 compliance. Specifically, Caltrans District 8 will require the completion of a VMT Decision Document that will need to be included in the documentation that will be used to inform the next phase of the Project. Although this will not directly be documented within the TEPA, it will be coordinated within the overall PSR-PDS document and will rely heavily on information coordinated through the TEPA. MULTI-MODAL PLANNING The objectives of the Multi-Modal Analysis Report are to assess the existing, future, or potential capabilities of alternative modes of transportation to reduce or relieve traffic on freeway and arterial facilities within the Project area, as well as to understand the relationships between various multi-modal improvements. A multi-modal analysis will be completed and data on other modes of transportation and information will be collected and summarized for the Project area. One option would be to provide a future Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) station at the existing bus stop along Collier Avenue. With the future I-15 ELPSE terminating just north of the I-15 Nichols Road Interchange and the high traffic demands for the Outlets at Lake Elsinore and local businesses, there is an opportunity at this location to provide BRT service. Existing Bus Stop along Collier Avenue. 31 City of Lake Elsinore Engineering Department, I-15 Nichols Road Interchange Improvement Project PSR-PDS | Section 2: Technical Proposal C. Project Understanding and Approach INTERSECTION CONTROL EVALUATION The Traffic Operations Policy Directive (TOPD) 13-2 for ICE requires the evaluation of possible intersection traffic to justify the intersection configuration, which could include traffic signals, yield control (roundabouts), or multi-way stop controls. HDR will work closely with the Caltrans District 8 ICE Coordinator, Joe Fernandez, so that the ICE procedures and steps are implemented to achieve an effective outcome for the Project. The ultimate intersection configurations will require Conceptual Approval from the Caltrans District 8 ICE Coordinator. An example of how an intersection evaluation could provide a possible change in configuration is reconfiguring the Collier Avenue and Nichols Road Intersection to a roundabout configuration. The roundabout will be further analyzed if it is found to provide safety and operational benefits to the intersection. BICYCLE ROUTES AND SIDEWALKS A Complete Streets Decision Document is required to be completed and attached to the PSR- PDS. Nichols Road and Collier Avenue are identified as Class II bicycle lanes in the City’s Active Transportation Plan, Active LE. Currently a striped bicycle lane and sidewalks are present on Collier Avenue in each direction, but no bicycle lane facilities are provided on Nichols Road. A sidewalk is located only on the southern side of the Nichols interchange up until the intersection with Collier Avenue. Preliminary Structural Analysis - Advance Planning Studies In support of the development of the PSR-PDS, an APS will be developed for each of the two bridges. The purpose of these APSs is to define the scope of the structure work required, estimate the construction cost, and identify the major constraints to construction at each location, including identifying environmental impacts that will need to be avoided or mitigated. Adding sidewalks and bicycle paths throughout the Project area will improve safety for both bicyclists and pedestrians. The deliverable will include an APS drawing for each structure which will depict the proposed structure layout, superstructure and substructure types, temporary and permanent clearances to traveled ways or waterways, requirements for falsework during construction, approach slabs, slope paving, barriers, etc. In addition to the APS drawings, we will prepare a Preliminary Foundation Report and a Preliminary Hydraulics Report (where applicable), and a Design Memorandum summarizing the assumptions and findings included in the preparation of the APS. Finally, an APS Checklist will be completed to ensure that the requirements of the APS as stipulated by the Caltrans Office of Special Funded Projects (OSFP) have been addressed and included in the package. All of these deliverables will be prepared in accordance with OSFP procedures and submitted to the City and Caltrans District 8 for review and approval. NICHOLS ROAD OVERCROSSING WIDENING A primary consideration to the constructability of the Nichols OC is traffic staging, both on the bridge and under the bridge. The total widening width will influence the possible structure types, as well as whether the widening is on one side or widening occurs on both sides of the bridge. Existing vertical clearance over I-15 is shown as 18’-3” minimum on the Caltrans Bridge Inspection Report clearance diagram. Widening to one side of approximately 60 feet with a 2 percent cross slope, and 0.5 percent freeway grade results in a reduced clearance of about 18”, for a final clearance of 16’-8”, just over the minimum vertical clearance of 16’-6”. However, during the APS effort, another check for constructability includes reviewing falsework needs and clearances. With falsework estimated to be 2’-11”, the resulting clearance is only 13.7’ compared to the required 15’. Reducing the bridge depth to achieve the required minimum vertical clearance gives a depth-to-span ratio of 0.34, much too shallow for a prestressed concrete box girder bridge. Precast girders do not require falsework, but would also be too deep to provide adequate permanent vertical clearance. A potential solution is to design a hybrid superstructure; shifting traffic away from the center bent would allow a cast-in-place The Nichols Road overcrossing will be widened to the ultimate section featuring six lanes consistent with the City General Plan. 32 City of Lake Elsinore Engineering Department, I-15 Nichols Road Interchange Improvement Project PSR-PDS | Section 2: Technical Proposal C. Project Understanding and Approach hammerhead, and then using shorter precast girders over the traffic lanes which do not need falsework. HDR has designed similar bridges using hybrid cast-in-place end precast girders, including for the SR-22 separation over I-5 for Caltrans District 12 in Orange County. For widenings of existing bridges, consideration will be given to the need for potential seismic retrofit. For sliver widenings, it is sometimes necessary to retrofit the existing bridge when it is found to be seismically deficient. For more substantial widenings, it is often possible to use the widening itself to enhance the performance of the overall structure, thereby reducing or eliminating the need to retrofit the existing bridge components. Aesthetic features will be included in the APS cost estimate, including the additional weight of a sign similar to the Lake Elsinore design on the existing structure, as well as concrete finishes on the barriers and abutment faces. We will use our experience on the many Caltrans bridge designs to evaluate the feasibility of each alternative roadway alignment and provide feedback on the structure feasibility, cost and constructability challenges. NICHOLS ROAD BRIDGE OVER TEMESCAL CREEK The Project also requires a new City-owned bridge over Temescal Creek. The roadway profile, span configuration, and bridge type are interrelated. Each potential alignment alternative will evaluate possible span configurations and their impacts on the other design elements such as roadway profile, and changes to the water surface elevation. Based on our experience on other water crossings in Riverside County, our goal will be to minimize ground disturbances within the creek and avoid significant water surface changes, while developing a safe roadway alignment and cost-effective bridge configuration. For instance, on Temescal Canyon Road over Temescal Creek, we developed a bridge substructure using cast-in-drilled-hole piles in lieu of the originally planned spread footings, drastically reducing the construction footprint within the creek. Waterways crossing bridges require special additional considerations, including the following: •Freeboard requirements of 2 feet for 50-year storm events and 0 feet for 100- and 500- year storm events •Temporary and permanent construction impacts within the waterway •Water surface elevation changes due to construction of new piers •Streambed scour and degradation evaluation •Requirements for slope protection such as rip rap •Construction equipment access to the waterway •Allowable construction schedule windows based on flow requirements and/or environmental constraints such as bird nesting or fish spawning •Long-term maintenance costs Drainage Evaluation and Stormwater Data Report The drainage work for a PID Phase evaluation of an interchange project lays the groundwork for the PA&ED and is similarly divided into supporting two tasks: environmental (providing data for the PEER), and engineering (performing preliminary work to establish the cost estimate). On the environmental side, two tasks are required. First is a floodplain evaluation. The floodplain evaluation will involve a literature review of the available floodplain information such as the FEMA Flood Insurance Rate Map (as seen in Figure 2.C.5 on the following page), the Flood Insurance Study, and the California Department of Water Resources data. This information will be compiled into a memorandum to assist the author of the Preliminary Environmental Studies (PES) to understand the floodplain associated with Temescal Creek and other floodplains that are identified during the research. The second task is preparation of the Water Quality Scoping Questionnaire. This document compiles the relevant water quality information into a single document that the environmental team uses to draft the water quality portion of the PES Form. A new bridge would be required and the Nichols Road alignment would need to be raised to span the 100- and 500- year regulatory floodplain over Temescal Creek. Floodplain evaluation will consider mitigation measures that would need to be taken to maintain the floodplain water surface elevations changes within the established limits. 33 City of Lake Elsinore Engineering Department, I-15 Nichols Road Interchange Improvement Project PSR-PDS | Section 2: Technical Proposal C. Project Understanding and Approach For the engineering tasks, a Drainage Assessment and a PID Phase SWDR are required. The Drainage Assessment reviews the existing drainage patterns and existing drainage features. Exhibits are prepared to document the drainage and to show the probable layout of proposed drainage features to support the PID Phase alternatives. Hydrology and hydraulics are not typically prepared; instead, record information or engineering judgment is applied to provide preliminary pipe sizes. For the crossing of Temescal Creek, the floodplain and floodway information available on the FIRM will be used to help establish bridge soffit elevation (freeboard) and abutment locations to avoid impacts to the regulatory floodway. The results of the Drainage Assessment are summarized in a letter report with the exhibits. Cost estimates are provided as part of the conceptual construction estimate. The SWDR prepared at the PID Phase to document existing water quality features and issues, will contain information related to Total Maximum Daily Loads (TMDLs), Clean Water Act Section 303(d) list of impaired waterbodies, and the constituents of concern. Existing treatment Best Management Practices (BMPs) are researched and documented for the Project record. Proposed treatment BMPs are conceptually sited and sized to reserve budget and right-of-way for the follow-on project development phases. Figure 2.C.5 FEMA Flood Insurance Rate Map Right-of-Way Data Sheet and Utility Coordination For a PID Phase level of effort, the Right-of-Way Data Sheet is a vital, but often under- considered document, especially for a PSR-PDS. The HDR Team will prepare the Right-of-Way Data Sheet, including input from our qualified Right-of-Way consultant, per the Caltrans Right- of-Way Manual. Our team has the experience, not only in preparation, but in the disciplines necessary for proper cost estimation related to property impacts and related to temporary and permanent needs and potential issues with prior rights for major utilities, such as the distribution and transmission overhead lines running along each side of Nichols Road. The HDR Team is aware of the large transmission towers and sewer lift station both adjacent to Nichols Road and Pierce Street, which the developed concepts will protect in place. All coordination and contact to obtain record maps, rights documentation, and as-built records for public and municipal-owned facilities along this segment of I-15 will be accomplished in the utility tracking matrix as part of the PID Phase. The utility tracking matrix can be carried directly into PA&ED for owner coordination. Future utility openings for potential relocations into the widened or new Nichols Road Overcrossing can be accommodated and will be coordinated with Caltrans District 8. Our team’s outreach to owners under previous projects, as well as with the ongoing I-15 ELPSE with RCTC and Caltrans District 8, allows us to seamlessly communicate and maintain continuity within the PDT while engaging the same owners in coordinating facility information from the PSR-PDS while quickly determining and considering utility impacts from day one. Concepts will prioritize avoiding the transmission towers and sewer lift station, both adjacent to Nichols Road. 34 City of Lake Elsinore Engineering Department, I-15 Nichols Road Interchange Improvement Project PSR-PDS | Section 2: Technical Proposal C. Project Understanding and Approach Cost Estimates and Funding Support Cost estimates are one of the primary products of a PSR-PDS, allowing the Project to be funded and programmed within the Federal Transportation Improvement Program (FTIP) financially constrained regional air quality model. Preliminary cost estimates will be prepared for each alternative and be broken down in terms of roadway, bridge structures, right-of-way, utilities, support services, and contingencies. Cost estimates will be reviewed by HDR’s construction contractor and adjusted where required. Roadway cost estimates will be developed using locally accepted pavement materials designs coupled with construction year pricing for materials and life cycle comparisons. Costs will be escalated from current year dollars to build year(s) dollars. Bridge structures will be estimated separately based on a square foot cost, depending on if the bridge is widened or replaced, including bridge removal. Utilities will be identified separately, and cost estimated with advice from HDR’s construction contractor. Support costs and contingencies will be based on a percentage of the construction cost estimate. Right-of-way cost estimates will use the scoping tools within the PSR preparation guidelines, and costs will be based on recent land valuations in the Project area. Additional Optional Tasks TOPOGRAPHIC MAPPING The HDR Team has the ability to expedite the development of the Project alternatives with extensive use of existing data. HDR has the topographic mappings, surveying, aerial photogrammetry, and right-of-way mapping available along I-15 in the vicinity of Nichols Road that contain adequate information to complete the PSR-PDS level of detail. Additional mappings may be obtained from Caltrans District 8 and the City to augment available mapping, if needed. Using existing mapping would provide cost and immediate time savings to the City. ACCESS MODIFICATION REQUEST Based on preliminary traffic findings, the Project team believes the current interchange configuration will be maintained with the tight diamond configuration. If an alternative interchange configuration is determined to be feasible, a Modified Access Report (MAR) will be prepared to document new connection points to I-15. FHWA has a two-step process in their review of projects that generally coincides with Caltrans’ review process to address ramp connection changes. A PSR-PDS does not typically provide enough detail for Caltrans or FHWA to determine conceptual acceptability but a Modified Access Report (MAR) for Engineering and Operational Acceptability Determination (Step 1) can be prepared during the PID Phase. During the PA&ED Phase, the Project would obtain the Approval of the Modified Access Report and FHWA Finding of Acceptability (Step 2). The team must coordinate with FHWA early in the PID Phase process to determine the type and extent of analysis required and the appropriate Project development and approval process. Environmental Environmental staff proposed on this Project have long-standing relationships with the environmental staff at Caltrans District 8. The HDR Team will leverage these existing working relationships, their experience from the preparation of numerous reports for Caltrans District 8 and local cities with Caltrans District 8 oversight, and existing knowledge of the Project area due to the work on the RCTC I-15 ELPSE PA&ED and City of Lake Elsinore I-15/SR-74 (Central Avenue) Interchange Improvement Project PA&ED to deliver an approved PEAR within HDR’s proposed PSR-PDS schedule of 12 months. ENVIRONMENTAL CONSIDERATIONS Based on the review of the existing area, information available from the RCTC I-15 ELPSE PA&ED and City of Lake Elsinore I-15/SR-74 (Central Avenue) Interchange Improvement Project PA&ED, and prior knowledge of the Project area, the HDR Team has identified the following key environmental constraints surrounding the area between Nichols Road and SR-74 within the Project area. Key environmental constraints within the Project area, as previously shown in Figure 2.C.1, are discussed below. Our biological team has 15 years of experience observing site conditions and evaluating riparian habitat in Riverside County and complying with the Western Riverside County MSHCP. 35 City of Lake Elsinore Engineering Department, I-15 Nichols Road Interchange Improvement Project PSR-PDS | Section 2: Technical Proposal C. Project Understanding and Approach BIOLOGICAL RESOURCES The Project is located within the Western Riverside County MSHCP Area. MSHCP survey areas identified for the Project include the Criteria Area Species Survey Area, Narrow Endemic Plant Species Survey, and Burrowing Owl Survey Area. Based on a review of database records, aerial photographs and familiarity with the Project area, rare plants, special status wildlife species, including least Bell’s vireo and southwestern willow flycatcher, have the potential to occur in the Project area. In addition, riparian/riverine jurisdictional areas associated with Temescal Creek are located within the Project area. Nichols Road is an MSHCP-Covered Road and will require compliance with MSHCP BMPs and design guidelines. Because of the Project area’s inclusion in the MSHCP Criteria Area, the Project may also be subject to MSHCP criteria regarding siting and wildlife crossings. CULTURAL RESOURCES The Project crosses Temescal Creek and is located within proximity to Lake Elsinore, which increases the likelihood of prehistoric- and historic-period archaeological sites to be present. Additionally, historic aerial photographs indicate increased activity in the area from the late 1960s into the 1970s – evidenced by what appear to be off-road vehicle tracks. However, the area was significantly disturbed by the development of I-15 in the late 1970s. As such, the likelihood of encountering cultural resources on the surface within and immediately adjacent to the freeway is low to none; however, depending on the depths of disturbance, there is still a possibility to encounter buried archaeological resources. The archaeological sensitivity increases near Temescal Creek and west of the creek. PALEONTOLOGICAL RESOURCES Sensitive paleontological soils, identified as the Silverado Formation (Tsi), are exposed and underlie the Project area. The Silverado Formation consists of marine to nonmarine rocks composed of a basal conglomerate unit overlain by a sequence of sandstone, siltstone, and claystone. Several invertebrate and plant localities have been identified within the Silverado Formation, including specimens of gastropod, bivalve, silicified wood, and carbonized leaves. NOISE ASSESSMENT Sensitive noise receptors are located adjacent to the Project area. These include residential properties and recreational land uses associated with Temescal Valley High School, located immediately adjacent to and east of the I-15 corridor. PRELIMINARY ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS REPORT Several key environmental constraints have been identified within the Project area and will be addressed in the PEAR prepared in compliance with Caltrans’ Guidelines Standard Environmental Reference (SER) for preparing a PEAR and using the latest Caltrans PEAR template (last revised June 2020). The PEAR will identify potential environmental resources and constraints associated with the Project and will assess how such impacts might impact the design, schedule, and associated costs anticipated during the PA&ED and PS&E Phases of the Project. The PEAR will also provide a preliminary determination for the level of environmental documentation during PA&ED, and will identify technical studies and agency permits and approvals needed to environmentally clear the Project. Supporting technical memorandums will be prepared in support of the PEAR, as part of the PSR-PDS. The PEAR will also address potential impacts to farmlands of local importance, hazardous waste sites, floodplains associated with the location of the Project area within 100- and 500-year floodplains, visual resources associated with the I-15 designation as a state-eligible scenic highway within the Project area, and planned Class II bicycle lanes along Nichols Road and Collier Avenue as identified in the as identified in the City’s General Plan and Active Transportation Plan, Active LE. Our team has previously evaluated potential noise and air quality impacts at Temescal Valley High School which can be applied to this Project. The HDR Team delivered a concise PEAR for the City of Yucaipa I-10/Wildwood Canyon Road Interchange PSR where only minor comments were received from Caltrans District 8, which can also be done for the City for this Project. ! 36 City of Lake Elsinore Engineering Department, I-15 Nichols Road Interchange Improvement Project PSR-PDS | Section 2: Technical Proposal C. Project Understanding and Approach Delivery Approach PROJECT MANAGEMENT Strong project management is critical to a successful project. Brooke Bannasch is a hands-on Project Manager that will leverage HDR’s proven Project Management Plan (PMP) on Figure 2.C.6 to meet the City and Caltrans District 8 expectations for delivery of the Project. Brooke understands that consistent and disciplined management is dependent on frequent monitoring and tracking of budget, schedule, quality, risk management, project resources and effective communication. HDR’s PMP focuses on four key components of project delivery. Brooke will work closely with HDR Project Coordinator, Kristine Kono- Woo, to accurately track and report on the Project’s progress. A project Critical Path Method (CPM) schedule will be developed and will be tracked on a monthly basis. HDR will include status reports in our monthly invoices that will report an estimate of physical progress and provide an outline of delivery trends. Proactive project management involves anticipating probable risks and, using knowledge, experience and tools, to minimize those risks for the City, stakeholders and the Project. HDR will use a risk register to identify and assess risks, establish a mitigation plan, and track potential risks. One of the most important project management tools is an effective and open Communication Plan. Clients who have worked with Brooke often note how well she keeps them informed about project details. Brooke will develop a project Communication Plan to establish the communication protocol to ensure that Project concerns, issues, and directions will be handled promptly and effectively to avoid delays and re-work. The Communication Plan will include team member contact information, and communication procedures, including guidelines for email distribution lists. HDR’s commitment to quality deliverables starts with the development of a project-specific Quality Management Plan (QMP). The QMP will utilize well-established and documented quality procedures that will be performed for each project deliverable. HDR Quality Manager, Steve Crouch, will partner with Brooke to actively administer the HDR QMP on each project deliverable. Brooke will work with each discipline lead to establish project design standards that will be utilized on deliverables. HDR will develop a project Staffing Plan that corresponds to the schedule to identify staffing needs so personnel can be appropriately scheduled for project activities. The Staffing Plan shown in Figure 2.C.7 utilizes a 12-month delivery schedule. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 120 4 8 PROJECT DURATION (months)NUMBER OF STAFFFigure 2.C.7 Staffing Plan Utilizes a 12-Month Delivery Schedule Operations Plan Communication Plan Quality Management Plan Production Plan Figure 2.C.6 HDR’s Proven Project Management Plan PROJECTSUCCESS Communication Plan Quality Management Plan Production Plan Operations Plan COMMUNICATION PLAN • Team Communications • Agency Coordination • PDT Coordination • Documentation • HDR Management OPERATIONS PLAN • Scope, Budget, Schedule • Resource Determination • Risk Management • Safety Plan • Subconsultant Management • Document Control PRODUCTION PLAN • Staffing Plan • Design Standards and Criteria • CADD Standards • Graphics Support • Project Deliverables QUALITYMANAGEMENT PLAN • Self Checking • Quality Reviews • Independent Reviews • Interdisciplinary Reviews • Risk Assessments PROJECTSUCCESS Communication Plan Quality Management Plan Production Plan Operations Plan COMMUNICATION PLAN • Team Communications • Agency Coordination • PDT Coordination • Documentation • HDR Management OPERATIONS PLAN • Scope, Budget, Schedule • Resource Determination • Risk Management • Safety Plan • Subconsultant Management • Document Control PRODUCTION PLAN • Staffing Plan • Design Standards and Criteria • CADD Standards • Graphics Support • Project Deliverables QUALITYMANAGEMENT PLAN • Self Checking • Quality Reviews • Independent Reviews • Interdisciplinary Reviews • Risk Assessments 37Section 2: Technical Proposal City of Lake Elsinore Engineering Department, I-15 Nichols Road Interchange Improvement Project PSR-PDS | Section 2: Technical Proposal C.

The three (3) alternative concepts will be agreed upon through an alternative screening process. The alternative screening process will consist of comparing up to five (5) alternatives through various criteria that will be developed and coordinated with CALTRANS and the CITY. One (1) alternative screening workshop will be held to determine the three (3) alternative concepts that will be considered in the PSR-PDS and future phases. Each alternative studied will go through a constructability review to determine feasibility. CONSULTANT will prepare layout schematics in 11x17 format at 1” = 500’ scale for three (3) alternative concepts as Caltrans standard cut sheets including title block. The layout schematics will illustrate proposed ramp configurations and include proposed lane configurations, shoulders, and right of way for each alternative. Right of way requirements, retaining wall and sound wall locations will be shown (if applicable). Deliverables: Alternative Screening Matrix with up to five (5) alternatives One (1) alternative screening workshop Layout schematic and typical section sheet (2 total) for three (3) alternative concepts C.3 PUBLIC/LOCAL AGENCY INPUT CONSULTANT shall use available information as collected from other involved agencies to prepare a compatible interchange design with existing and future conditions. Involved agencies include, but will not necessarily be limited to the following: Caltrans Riverside County Transportation Department (COUNTY) City of Lake Elsinore (CITY) Western Riverside County Regional Conservation Authority United States Fish and Wildlife Service California Department of Fish and Wildlife C.4 PERFORM PUBLIC AND COMMUNITY OUTREACH The CONSULTANT will support the City by executing an abbreviated but strategic public outreach program to explain the proposed project, understand community/business concerns, offer opportunities for community feedback and two-way dialogue, and discuss the purpose and need for the project. Outreach activities will support the technical team, with materials designed to be bi-lingual and "user friendly" to confirm that the public understands the Project Initiation Document (PID) phase and how to provide valuable input to the delivery team. The CONSULTANT will conduct community analytics research in producing a demographic and conditional elements report to help tailor strategies and tactics to support all communications and outreach efforts now and throughout the project's life. The CONSULTANT will organize and attend one (1) public outreach workshop to inform the community of roadway improvement concepts being considered within the project area, to inform the public and responsible agencies about the proposed project and the environmental process, and to solicit input from local residents and businesses that can be obtained during the planning and concept evaluation stage of the PSR-PDS. The workshop will be advertised through various channels to ensure community attendance. The CONSULTANT will create a distribution plan to boost participation in those areas most impacted and within disadvantaged communities. The CONSULTANT will attend one (1) City Council Meeting to support the project team's presentation of the roadway improvement concepts considered within the project area to the City Council. The outreach component of this presentation will assist the City and the project team to better understand the public concerns and will provide the team with an opportunity to address community concerns as the project moves forward in the planning phase. Clear and concise project information will be produced through an equity lens and distributed by hand at meetings, through mailings, and electronically through email, web, and social as necessary. The CONSULTANT will facilitate developing and distributing a Fact Sheet in English and Spanish for the Public Outreach Workshop and presentation at the City Council meeting. The English/Spanish Fact Sheet and FAQ document will be prepared in close collaboration with the technical team, followed by one update. The information produced can be provided to City staff to be uploaded on the existing City hosted website for additional ongoing public access during the project's planning phase. The informational materials will explain and illustrate the viable conceptual design alternatives to be studied further in PA&ED, the purpose and need, anticipated project delivery timeline, potential funding sources, and ways to obtain more information and provide feedback on the proposed project. The CONSULTANT will produce a PowerPoint presentation for stakeholder briefings and as visuals for use at the public outreach workshop. It is assumed that any public outreach sessions will occur at a City-owned facility and no local law enforcement would be required. If law enforcement presence is desired, it would be coordinated and provided by the City staff.

CONSULTANT will utilize available GIS preliminary mapping showing the property boundaries and right of way requirements to estimate the number, area, and magnitude of parcels required for acquisition and the likely number of easements needed. CONSULTANT will identify existing utilities and potential relocation activities using existing, available information (e.g., permit search, as-built drawings, field review). CONSULTANT will prepare “Conceptual Cost Estimate – Right- of-Way Component” to develop an order of magnitude cost estimate and to identify additional studies that may be needed during PA&ED. CONSULTANT will coordinate with the COUNTY to assess per square foot unit costs and associated right of way costs relative to impacts to adjacent properties. The square foot unit costs will be developed in coordination with COUNTY and comparable properties within the vicinity of the project. Deliverables: Preliminary Right of Way Requirement Exhibits for three (3) build alternatives Utility and Assessment Conceptual Cost Estimate – Right-of-Way Component D.2 PRELIMINARY STRUCTURES ASSESSMENT Using available as-built information for the existing structure facilities along the corridor, CONSULTANT will identify proposed structure improvements for each of the three (3) build alternatives in support of the cost estimate for the PSR-PDS. CONSULTANT will use a streamlined estimating process, such as square- footage costs to develop a "Structure PSR-PDS Cost Estimate" for inclusion into the PSR-PDS document when bridge and/or nonstandard retaining wall work is necessary. CONSULTANT will prepare the Division of Engineering Services (DES) Scoping Checklist in coordination with Project Liaison Engineer. For a PSR-PDS, the level of detail in the DES Scoping Checklist and "Structure PSR-PDS Cost Estimate" is limited to information required to develop accurate work plans for the PA&ED phase. Deliverables: Structures PSR-PDS Cost Estimate DES Scoping Checklist C.2 PRELIMINARY GEOTECHNICAL ASSESMENT & LIFE CYCLE COST ANALYSIS Using available Geotechnical information, the CONSULTANT will assess the existing data in the area. CONSULTANT will prepare a Life Cycle Cost Analysis (LCCA) for the PID phase of the proposed project. A preliminary materials report (PMR) is not anticipated to be required for the PID phase of work and excluded from the scope of work. The LCCA will be divided into three different pavement scenarios: o Pavement Scenario 1 – worst case ramp 20/40-year Flexible & Rigid o Pavement Scenario 2– worst case Nichols Road 20/40-year Flexible & Rigid o Pavement Scenario 3– worst case outside auxiliary lane 20/40-year Flexible & Rigid CONSULTANT will review existing geotechnical maps and reports in order to develop preliminary pavement sections based on highly simplified pavement assumptions. It is assumed that Caltrans Mechanistic-Empirical calculations will not be required for this preliminary planning phase. CONSULTANT will also Perform geotechnical analysis of the collected data and develop LCCA calculations and prepare a preliminary LCCA report presenting findings and preliminary pavement recommendations for the proposed improvements. Deliverables: Draft and Final LCCA Report D.3 PRELIMINARY DRAINAGE ASSESSMENT Freeway, County, and City drainage systems will be reviewed and the impacts of the proposed three (3) build alternatives on these facilities will be assessed. Necessary replacements and/or improvements including incorporation of Water Quality Best Management practices will be reflected in the cost estimates. Detailed hydraulic/hydrologic calculations are outside the scope of this scope of work. CONSULTANT will identify permits for design, construction, and operations of drainage facilities. Deliverables: Identification of impacts to major drainage facilities Preliminary cost estimates to affected major drainage facilities D.4 TRAFFIC CAPACITY ANALYSIS CONSULTANT will evaluate the project in accordance with Caltrans Traffic Operations Policy Directive 13-02: Intersection Control Evaluation. CONSULTANT will evaluate intersection variations based on the first step of the screening process. CONSULTANT will document evaluation in an ICE Technical Memorandum to identify the preferred intersection control for the three (3) build alternatives within the PSR-PDS. Deliverables: Intersection Control Evaluation Technical Memorandum (Step 1) D.5 TRAFFIC ENGINEERING PERFORMANCE ASSESSMENT In coordination with the CITY and other project-related engineers, CONSULTANT will utilize available transportation reports for the corridor, performance monitoring systems, local agency transportation studies to complete the Traffic Engineering Performance Assessment (TEPA) as required within Section 5, Article 5 of the PSR-PDS guidelines (Appendix S) within the PDPM. CONSULTANT will estimate the scope and magnitude of the Traffic Engineering studies (i.e., Travel Forecasting; Traffic Analysis; Infrastructure Evaluation; Warrant Analysis; and Safety Review) that need to be performed during the subsequent Project Approval & Environmental Document (PA&ED) phase. To meet the purpose of the PSR-PDS, it is intended that the preliminary traffic engineering studies should be limited to an assessment of readily available information and data, and macro-level analysis and evaluation. This effort will produce preliminary traffic engineering findings and estimates to inform and advise the PDT on: o The potential scope of work and features (especially the traffic "elements" referenced above) o Potential performance benefits and deficiencies o The scope and magnitude of traffic engineering work (traffic forecasting, modeling, analysis, and evaluation) to be performed during the Project Approval and Environmental Document phase CONSULTANT will identify the traffic forecasting and traffic engineering studies needed to analyze, evaluate, and more accurately predict or estimate operational and safety performance of the proposed improvements during the future PA&ED phase. Future studies may require new data collection and forecasting. CONSULTANT will perform a macro-level analysis at the study intersections and locations using Synchro software and HCM methodology. Microsimulation is not assumed under this task. Traffic analysis will be conducted under existing conditions, design year (2045) no build conditions, and design year (2045) with two build alternatives conditions. The analysis will present delay and level of service at each study intersection and freeway mainline. The analysis will be used to determine three (3) build alternatives for the PSR-PDS. Detailed analysis (FREQ, CORSIM, VISSIM, etc.) will not be performed as part of this scope of work. CONSULTANT will summarize the assessment and key findings and estimates and incorporated into the PSR-PDS document. Deliverables: Traffic Engineering Performance Assessment Preliminary traffic assessment of three (3) build alternatives Summary of traffic engineering studies and scope for PSR-PDS D.7 CONSTRUCTION ESTIMATES CONSULTANT will prepare a “Capital Outlay Project Estimate” in accordance with Section 4 of the PSR-PDS guidelines (Appendix S) within the PDPM. The cost estimate will be in the format of Appendix AA of the PDPM to support the PSR-PDS. A cost estimate will be prepared for three (3) build alternatives within the PSR-PDS. For the PSR-PDS capital cost estimates, an order of magnitude cost estimate will be prepared. CALTRANS will prepare the “Capital Outlay Support Estimate” to identify level of staff support for PA&ED Deliverables: Capital Outlay Project Estimates for three (3) build alternatives D.8 EXCEPTIONS TO DESIGN STANDARDS DEVELOPMENT Fact Sheets for exceptions to advisory and mandatory Highway Design Manual standards are not required and excluded from this scope of work. CONSULTANT will evaluate three (3) build alternatives using Design Information Bulletin 82-01 “Design Checklist”. Deviations from design standards will be identified and described in the PSR-PDS. CONSULTANT will perform a non- standard feature risk assessment to indicate a level of risk for conceptual acceptability of the build alternatives. The design standards risk assessment is a list of design standards that will likely not be met for each alternative and the probability of approval for each proposed non-standard feature. CONSULTANT will attend a Design Exception Risk Assessment meeting with CALTRANS design staff to obtain approval of risk assessment. A Multi-Modal Decision document will be prepared and coordinated with the CITY and CALTRANS for approval. Deliverables: List of non-standard features for three (3) build alternatives Risk assessment for approval for non-standard features Design Exception Risk Assessment Meeting Multi-Modal/Complete Streets Decision Document WBS 150.20 TASK F: PRELIMINARY ENIVRONMENTAL ANALYSIS (PEAR) F.1 PEAR PREPARATION CONSULTANT will prepare a draft and final Preliminary Environmental Analysis Report (PEAR), per CALTRANS Standard Environmental Reference Guidelines and the PEAR Handbook. Caltrans guidelines for the PEAR will follow the guidance available as of contract date. The PEAR will identify the anticipated Environmental Document, anticipated impacts, the future technical studies, and anticipated mitigations. The PEAR will also estimate the scope, schedule and preliminary costs associated with completing environmental compliance. The PEAR will also present and discuss the results of preliminary environmental studies in order to identify environmental analyses that may affect design. The information contained in the PEAR will serve as a foundation to begin studies for the PA&ED phase. In addition, cumulative impacts and context sensitive solutions will be summarized in the Technical Summaries section of the PEAR, but will not have a separate technical memoranda prepared. The PEAR will also include: o Purpose and Need Statement o A discussion of environmental resources and a description of the potential PROJECT issues or impacts, which could delay the PROJECT or affect any PROJECT alternative. o Description of studies that are needed to complete an environmental evaluation (noting as necessary any seasonal constraints for these studies). o A recommended environmental determination/documentation and a tentative schedule for its completion. o Required or anticipated permits or approvals. Deliverables: Initial Site Assessment (ISA) Checklist Draft and Final PEAR F.2 VEHICLE MILES OF TRAVEL DECISION DOCUMENT (VMTDD) ASSISTANCE CONSULTANT will assist the project team in filling out the VMTDD that is now required as part of the PSR/PDS phase of the project. CONSULTANT will include preliminary forecasting to assist in estimating VMT and coordination with the project team to derive information needed for the document. CONSULTANT to prepare information for, coordinate on, and respond to comments. Deliverables: VMT Decision Document WBS 150.25 TASK G: APPROVED PSR-PDS & SWDR G.1 DRAFT PSR-PDS CONSULTANT will prepare a Draft PSR-PDS Report to document the geometric assumptions, initial studies, methodology, alternatives, findings, FHWA coordination and involvement, anticipated design exceptions with general PROJECT strategy of how to address within PA&ED phase (no fact sheets anticipated), stakeholder meetings and involvement and results in accordance with the requirements outlined as outlined within PDPM Appendix S. Deliverables: Draft PSR-PDS G.2 FINAL PSR-PDS CONSULTANT will prepare the Final PSR-PDS based on any comments received from Caltrans and schedule a focus meeting on first review comments. Response to comments will be prepared to address all the Caltrans comments received on the Draft PSR-PDS. The Final PSR-PDS will establish the scope, schedule, and estimated costs of the alternative concepts to the PROJECT. The document will also include a tabulation of estimated project support costs and capital costs by project phase and fiscal year. CONSULTANT will coordinate and obtain final approvals of the PSR-PDS. CONSULTANT will update the FTIP and coordinate with RCTC on the project description, funding, and schedule. Deliverables: Approved Final PSR-PDS Cost Estimates for Alternatives Updated FTIP Description G.3 STORMWATER DOCUMENTATION CONSULTANT will prepare stormwater documentation in accordance with Section 5, Article 3 of the PSR-PDS guidelines (Appendix S) within PDPM. Since the main purpose of the PSR-PDS is only to estimate the resources needed to complete PA&ED, the expected level of stormwater information for a PSR-PDS is much less than a regular Project Study Report or Project Report. The PSR-PDS evaluation will mainly focus on determining if there will be any significant impacts to the three (3) build alternatives, right-of-way needs, or PROJECT costs due to the need to incorporate treatment Best Management Practices (BMPs) for compliance with stormwater requirements. Deliverables: Storm Water Data Report The scope assumes the Project Initiation Proposal and Cooperative Agreement with Caltrans is completed by others prior to NTP. Public outreach and utility coordination are not required by Caltrans procedures during the PID phase and therefore are not required in this phase of work. Utility coordination will be conducted via Dig-Alert. Coordination is assumed to occur virtually, final reports will be printed and mailed as needed.
