Agreement For As-Needed Municipal Engineering And Construction Management Services
(i) Obtain such insurance and deduct and retain the amount of the premiums for such
insurance from any sums due under the agreement;
(ii) Order Consultant to stop work under this agreement or withhold any payment
which becomes due to Consultant hereunder, or both stop work and withhold any
payment, until Consultant demonstrates compliance with the requirements hereof;

and is not the exclusive remedy for Consultant's failure to maintain insurance or secure
appropriate endorsements.
(e) Consultant shall submit evidence of compliance with the insurance and endorsement
requirements of this Section for the approval of the Town Attorney.
9. Consultant's Responsibility. Town is retaining Consultant in reliance on its
representations that it has the skills, experience and knowledge necessary to perform the work
agreed to be performed under this agreement in a competent manner. Acceptance by Town of the
work performed under this agreement does not operate as a release of said Consultant from
responsibility for the work performed. It is further understood and agreed that Consultant is
apprised of the scope of the work to be performed under this agreement and Consultant agrees that
said work can and shall be performed in a fully competent manner in accordance with the standard
of practice applicable to Consultant's profession.

of the scope of work in a competent manner, the Town may terminate this agreement at its sole
discretion.

other cause arising out of the willful or negligent acts or omissions of Consultant, its employees,
subcontractors, or agents, or on account of the performance or character of this work, except for
any such claim arising solely out of the negligence or willful misconduct of the Town, its officers,
employees, or agents. It is understood that the duty of Consultant to indemnify and hold harmless
includes the duty to defend as set forth in section 2778 of the California Civil Code. Acceptance
of insurance certificates and endorsements required under this agreement does not relieve
Consultant from liability under this indemnification and hold harmless clause. This
indemnification and hold harmless clause shall apply whether or not such insurance policies shall
have been determined to be applicable to any of such damages or claims for damages.
11. Licenses. If a license of any kind having terms intended to include evidence of
registration is required of Consultant, its employees, agents, or subcontractors by Federal or State

Most of HE's projects are small projects with a short duration design period with a blend of
medium size projects that have longer delivery schedules; this makes it easy to schedule
additional small projects into our workload. Because of this flexibility with our workload we
are also able to assist the Town with the occasional emergency project that may arise due to
Acts of God or a Council Member's concern.
HE staff has completed PS&E documents for over 70 projects, including projects for Caltrans
and various city and county agencies throughout northern California. Types of projects
designed include:
o Municipal Infrastructure Improvements - City roadways, expressways, pedestrian safety
improvements, site grading, drainage plans, retaining walls, sound walls, utilities, and
drainage structures. Reconstruction, rehabilitation and relocation of facilities. Pipeline
installations for storm drainage, sanitary sewer, and water lines. HE will commit the time and
resources necessary to respond to emergency repair projects for creek bank stabilization,
water line or sewer repair projects. Caltrans administered federal-aid projects, including STIP,
HBRR, and "Safe Routes to School".
o Flood Control and Drainage Improvements - Channel improvements, detention basins,
weirs, bypass channels, energy dissipaters, debris control structures, storm damage assessment
and restoration plans, and other hydraulic control facilities.

In addition to working on "Local Assistance" projects, Harrison Engineering has also
completed several "Encroachment Permit" projects including projects for the Cities of Oakley,
San Pablo and Antioch. Weare intimately familiar with the Caltrans design requirements,
encroachment permit procedures and the expectations of Caltrans staff.
Construction Mana!!ement
HE provides construction support services for all of our projects, as requested by the client.
Weare comfortable working on-call, as support staff or taking the lead role in construction
management. We recognize that construction issues take priority over all other office
activities. We also recognize the importance of documentation during the project construction
to track daily activities and any special circumstances that may arise during constniction to
provide adequate documentation to protect the City in case of a claim.
Work Scope
We anticipate the work to be on a Task Order basis for financial tracking purposes. The project
or task specific scope of work will need to befteshed out for each Task Order dependent upon
the type of project. In general, we anticipate the following tasks and approach for this contract:
Engineering Services
Harrison Engineering and the appropriate team members necessary for the successful
completion of the projectwjl1 perform design and coordination services for the Town's CIP
Projects. If a specialty consultant is required that is not currently on our proposal, we will seek
out and obtain the services of the most suitable consultant.
[J Prepare PS&E for Town Projects, which are anticipated to be:
o Traffic Safety Improvements
o Street Resurfacing
o Utility lll1dergrounding
o Storm Drain Improvement and Master Plan
o Corporation Yard Improvements
Key elements to the successful delivery ofPS&E projects are a strong Project Management
Plan and a good Project Design Approach.
Project Management Approach
Harrison Engineering (HE) will lead the project development team. Our approach is to provide
strong project management and team consistency through the life of the project.
Project Management - HE's approach to managing the project includes:
. Regularly Scheduled Coordination Meetings

"' : "''' ;l"'~;r, _ ..:!;:
. Regular review and adherence to project schedules.
. Submittals at 50%, 95% and Final levels of completion. Progress prints as requested.
. Early issue identification and resolution.
. Documentation of meetings with written minutes/record of conversation.
In order to coordinate the team, keep the City informed, and keep the project on track, the
following tools will be used to make sure the project is delivered on schedule:
~ Developing a detailed Project Schedule with milestone dates is essential in aiding
the project team in meeting submittal dates and keeping the overall schedule on
track. Schedules keep everyone accountable.
~ Periodic Project Development Team (PDT) Meetings. Review of schedules and
project accomplishments over the past period and review of upcoming submittals.
Discussions on right of way, utility and physical constraints. Meeting'minutes are
prepared and sent out to the PDT members.
~ Daily communication with team members as needed, via phone; emails and faxes.
~ Paper trail. Good documentation of phone conversations and meetings with
distribution to the appropriate parties.
In order to maintain and manage the proj ect, the lines of communication must be well
established. All project communications shall be directed through HE's project manager so
that project progress can be monitored at all times.
Project Design Approach
Roadwav Desii!D Annroach
,
Design of projects is typically done using AutoCAD with Land Desktop/Civil 3D, which
allows significant flexibility in adjusting horizontal and vertical alignments at little or no cost
to the project. Survey data is downloaded into a database and used to create a digital terrain
model (dtm). From the dtm we accurately calculate quantities for bidding purposes. HE
typically follows the Caltrans design guidelines for roadway geometrics and layout, although
AASHTO guidelines are often used to cover urban geometric situations where Caltrans
Standards will not work. We also use a "reference" file setup for our drawings, which allows a
change in one drawing to be reflected on all subsequent drawings. For example, if a driveway
or median opening is added to the plans, it will be obvious on the striping plans that there was
a change and a revision is required.
HE identifies all potential utility conflicts and request the appropriate agency to verify
(pothole) the facility to provide a positive vertical/horizontal location at the 65% Plan stage.
Conflicts are identified and HE requests that utilities relocate their facilities. HE designs the
necessary City relocations (water, sanitary sewer, storm drain) for inclusion in the plan
package.

Our typical approach to roadway drainage design is as follows:

1. Identify existing drainage facilities and drainage patterns (field review).
2. Get available hydrologic and hydraulic information from City and Coup.ty records
(topographic maps, record drawings, as-builts, master plan documents, etc.) to identify
drainage boundaries and appropriate discharge points. Determine starting water surface
elevations (HGL) at discharge points.
3. Review underground utility mapping for potential conflicts.
4. Coordinate with the surveyor to collect adequate topographic data for the hydraulic
design.
5. Review roadway geometries for sags to identify mandatory inlet locations. Calculate
gutter spread widths to identify on-grade inlet locations. Spread width at the gutter or
dike will be checked to ensure adequate roadway drainage for a 10- year storm event.
6. Layout culvert system. Avoiding major utility relocations if economically and
physically feasible. Size culvert to handle build-out conditions if possible. .
7. Calculate hydraulic grade lines to ensure adequate freeboard to grate.
8. Prepare a report compiling the assumptions and calculations used for the design.
Throughout the design process it is very important to coordinate the drainage design with any
revisions to the roadway geometrics and subsequently re-review for potential utility conflicts.
Administrative/Project Coordination Services
Randell has been working with the City of Concord as a project coordinator on 3 City projects.
For two of those projects he has writtenwinning grant applications. All 3 projectsrequire
coordination with the State for funding reimbursement. In the project coordinator role and in
various other on-call roles, Randell has met with and made effective presentation to residents,
business owners, City staff, City Manager, and the City Attorney. For the Cities of Oakley and
Pittsburg, Randell has made, similar presentations plus presentations to City Councils.
Traffic and Public Safety Review
Harrison Engineering will review roadway safety issues relative to roadway geometry, sight
distance, vertical obstructions, etc. HE will utilize Fehr and Peers Associates to assist with
other traffic engineering related issues.
Land Survey Analysis
Quiet River Land Services will handle all Land Survey and Subdivision Map Act issues for the
proj ect.
Construction Management and Inspection
