i The first event was conducted in August 2019 This event was
coordinated with the August 2019 receiving water dry weather
momtonng activities Because the program's other dry weather
outfall momtonng activities were already completed for August
2019, this event required a separate mobilization
ii The second event will be conducted m June 2020 This event will be
coordinated with both the June 2020 receiving water dry weather
monitonng activities and the program's other dry weather outfall
momtonng activities to gain efficiencies in mobilization
iii Provide traffic control for access to Station SD-1
iv Collect in situ measurements of water quality and collect a sample
for analytical chemistry, consisting of total and dissolved metals and
hardness dunng both events
b Due to results of recent sensitivity screening toxicity tests and additional
sampling and analysis associated with dry weather receiving water
monitonng, existing project documentation— specifically the Sampling
and Analysis Plan—will require updating
c Toxicity samples will not be collected during dry weather events
d Data validation and data management costs were increased at a greater rate
due to changes realized in laboratory methods and coordination Multiple
01203 0006/640650 1 -2-
laboratory reports and electronic data files will be received to meet project
requirements, instead of a smgle report per event
e Based on non-stormwater outfall investigations conducted in 2017,
additional non-stormwater outfall morutonng and associated analytical
testing will not be required However, optional costs associated with this
task are presented should the Peninsula CIMP Watershed Management
Group (WMG) decide these tasks are necessary
f Monitonng data analysis is limited to supporting the 2019/2020 and
2020/2021 Watershed Annual Reports The table below identifies the
subsections that Consultant will support

a Conducted Toxicity Identification Evaluation (TIE) screemng level tests
(ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid treatment only)on a sample collected from
Station RW-1 in August 2019 to confirm TIE results from the June 2019
monitonng event
b Due to results of recent sensitivity screemng toxicity tests and additional
sampling and analysis associated with dry weather receiving water
momtonng, existing project documentation— specifically the Sampling
and Analysis Plan—will require updating
c Toxicity tests are limited to the most sensitive species
d
During the June 2020 dry weather receiving water event, a third sample
from Station SMB 7-1 will be collected and submitted for toxicity tests
e One TIE may be conducted
f Analytical chemistry in June and August 2020 and June 2021 will include
a more comprehensive list of dissolved and total metals (i e , metals listed
in Table E2 of the 2012 Los Angeles County Municipal Separate Storm
Sewer System Permit)at one location(RW-1)because of observed toxicity
in the June 2019 sample
g Analytical chemistry will not be conducted on the sample collected from
SMB 7-1
h Data validation and data management costs were increased at a greater rate
due to changes realized in laboratory methods and coordination Multiple
laboratory reports and electronic data files will be received to meet project
requirements, instead of a single report per event
Monitonng data analysis is limited to supporting the 2019/2020 and

which the Consultant may be held responsible for the payment of damages to any persons or
property resulting from the Consultant's activities or the activities of any person or persons for
which the Consultant is otherwise responsible nor shall it limit the Consultant's indemnification
liabilities as provided in Section 5.3.

entity for which Consultant is legally liable ("indemnitors"), or arising from Consultant's or

omission, or reckless or willful misconduct of Consultant in the performance of professional
services hereunder. The provisions of this Section do not apply to claims or liabilities occurring
as a result of City's sole negligence or willful acts or omissions, but, to the fullest extent

outstanding invoices during the period of default. If Consultant does not cure the default, the

7.3 Retention of Funds.

damages suffered by City, and (ii) all amounts for which City may be liable to third parties, by
reason of Consultant's acts or omissions in performing or failing to perform Consultant's
obligation under this Agreement. In the event that any claim is made by a third party, the
amount or validity of which is disputed by Consultant, or any indebtedness shall exist which
shall appear to be the basis for a claim of lien,City may withhold from any payment due,without
liability for interest because of such withholding, an amount sufficient to cover such claim. The
failure of City to exercise such right to deduct or to withhold shall not, however, affect the
obligations of the Consultant to insure, indemnify, and protect City as elsewhere provided herein.
7.4 Waiver.
Waiver by any party to this Agreement of any term, condition, or covenant of this
Agreement shall not constitute a waiver of any other term, condition, or covenant. Waiver by
any party of any breach of the provisions of this Agreement shall not constitute a waiver of any
other provision or a waiver of any subsequent breach or violation of any provision of this
Agreement. Acceptance by City of any work or services by Consultant shall not constitute a
waiver of any of the provisions of this Agreement. No delay or omission in the exercise of any
right or remedy by a non-defaulting party on any default shall impair such right or remedy or be
construed as a waiver. Any waiver by either party of any default must be in writing and shall not
be a waiver of any other default concerning the same or any other provision of this Agreement.

Except with respect to rights and remedies expressly declared to be exclusive in this
Agreement, the rights and remedies of the parties are cumulative and the exercise by either party
of one or more of such rights or remedies shall not preclude the exercise by it, at the same or
different times, of any other rights or remedies for the same default or any other default by the

such shorter time as may be determined by the Contract Officer. In addition, the Consultant
- 14 - B-I4
01203.0022/287800.4

period of notice may be such shorter time as the Consultant may determine. Upon receipt of any
notice of termination, Consultant shall immediately cease all services hereunder except such as
may be specifically approved by the Contract Officer. Except where the Consultant has initiated
termination, the Consultant shall be entitled to compensation for all services rendered prior to the
effective date of the notice of termination and for any services authorized by the Contract Officer

this Section, the terminating party need not provide the non-terminating party with the
opportunity to cure pursuant to Section 7.2.

If termination is due to the failure of the Consultant to fulfill its obligations under this
Agreement, City may, after compliance with the provisions of Section 7.2, take over the work
and prosecute the same to completion by contract or otherwise, and the Consultant shall be liable
to the extent that the total cost for completion of the services required hereunder exceeds the
compensation herein stipulated (provided that the City shall use reasonable efforts to mitigate
such damages), and City may withhold any payments to the Consultant for the purpose of set-off
or partial payment of the amounts owed the City as previously stated.

EXHIBIT "A"
SCOPE OF SERVICES
I. Consultant will perform the following Services:
Services are required for two related but distinct scopes of work: A) Receiving Water
Monitoring; and B) Outfall Monitoring. Whenever technically and logistically feasible,
service items for each scope of work may be conducted conjunctively for project
efficiencies.
A. Services required for Receiving Water Monitoring include:
i. Sampling and Analysis Plan with Integrated Health and Safety Plan
A Sampling and Analysis Plan(SAP)and Health and Safety Plan(HASP) will be
developed that include all elements of program design (i.e., study objectives,
sampling locations, and sample numbers), sample collection and handling,
analytical methods and target detection limits, data evaluation, and quality
assurance/quality control (QA/QC). The SAP will include a project map
illustrating proposed sample locations. A program-specific HASP will be attached
to the SAP and will include specific elements such as site emergency procedures,
directions to the nearest hospital and urgent care facilities, personal protection
requirements, risk analysis and job safety analysis, site control, decontamination
procedures, and health and safety procedures.
ii. Receiving Water Sampling
Receiving water sampling will be conducted five (5)times per year, consisting of
three (3) wet weather events at two (2) stations and two (2) dry weather events at
two(2)stations. When possible,events are to be performed concurrently with the
Greater Harbor Toxics Water Compliance Monitoring Program for cost saving
opportunities. Specific elements include:
• Review weather forecasts to select qualifying storm events and dry weather
periods to monitor. The first large storm of the season(after October 1)will
be monitored and is defined as a storm to have a predicted rainfall of at least
one-quarter (0.25) inch with a seventy percent (70%) probability of
occurrence at least twenty-four (24) hours prior to the event start time (as
defined by the 2012 MS4 Permit). At least one of the dry weather events
will occur in June.
• Coordinate field sampling activities with subcontracted analytical
laboratories.
01203.0022/287800.4
• Mobilize and operate a suitable vessel with qualified field staff in
accordance with methods established by the City of Los Angeles
Environmental Monitoring Division for the monitoring of two(2)off-shore
receiving water stations. For the health and safety of the field team,
receiving water monitoring will not be conducted off-shore under a small
craft advisory.
• Measure in situ water quality and collect receiving water samples using
methods consistent with the Greater Harbor Waters Toxics Total Maximum
Daily Load (TMDL) Compliance Monitoring Program, the Southern
California Coastal Water Research Project Regional Bight Monitoring
Program, and California State Surface Water Ambient Monitoring
Programs. In situ water quality measurements include temperature,
dissolved oxygen,pH, and conductivity.
iii. Sample Analyses and Quality Assurance/Quality Control
For the first wet weather and dry weather monitoring events, receiving water
samples will be collected and submitted for the analysis of all parameters
identified in Table E-2 of the 2012 Los Angeles County Municipal Separate Storm
Sewer System (MS4) Permit and polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB) individual
congeners. For all subsequent wet and dry weather monitoring events, samples
will be collected and submitted for the analysis of the following parameters:
• Total suspended sediment(TSS)
• Total Hardness
• Total and fecal coliform, enterococcus
• PCB congeners
• DDT and its derivatives
• Aquatic marine toxicity (collected three (3) times per year, including the
first large storm of the wet season, one (1) other storm, and the June dry
weather monitoring event)
• Any additional parameters from Table E-2 observed to have an exceedance
of applicable water quality criteria during the first wet and dry weather
events
All analytical data will undergo data validation(i.e., QA/QC) in accordance with
Regional Water Quality Control Board (RWQCB)-approved QA/QC methods
developed to support the Greater Harbor Waters Toxics TMDL Compliance
Monitoring Program. Data validation will be consistent with U.S. Environmental
Protection Agency (USEPA) Stage 2A requirements.
At a minimum, one (1) Phase I toxicity identification evaluation (TIE) will be
conducted per year when toxicity is observed.
01203.0022/287800.4
iv. Electronic Data Management and Reporting
Maintain an electronic database of all field observations and measurements and
analytical laboratory-generated results. Semiannually, export electronic data into
a customized format that meets the California Environmental Data Exchange
Network(CEDEN)database requirements. Review all elements of the Receiving
Water Monitoring Program and provide recommendations for adaptive
management on an annual basis.
B. Services required for Outfall Monitoring include:
i. Sampling and Analysis Plan with Integrated Health and Safety Plan
A SAP and HASP will be developed that include all elements of program design
(i.e.,study objectives,sampling locations,and sample numbers),sample collection
and handling, analytical methods and target detection limits, data evaluation, and
QA/QC. The SAP will include a project map illustrating proposed sample
locations. A program-specific HASP will be attached to the SAP and will include
specific elements such as site emergency procedures, directions to the nearest
hospital and urgent care facilities, personal protection requirements, risk analysis
and job safety analysis, site control, decontamination procedures, and health and
safety procedures, as well as elements related to confined space entry and traffic
control.
ii. Outfall Sampling
Outfall sampling consists of wet weather monitoring, significant outfall non-
stormwater dry weather monitoring, and Machado Lake Nutrients TMDL
monitoring. General elements include:
• Sampling will only be conducted during business hours. Business hours are
defined as 07:30 to 17:30 (Monday to Thursday) and 07:30 to 16:30
(Friday),and holidays are not included. Storm events occurring during non-
business hours will not be sampled.
• Review weather forecasts to select qualifying storm events and dry weather
periods to monitor. The first large storm of the season(after October 1)will
be monitored and is defined as a storm to have a predicted rainfall of at least
one-quarter (0.25) inch with a seventy percent (70%) probability of
occurrence at least twenty-four (24) hours prior to the event start time (as
defined by the 2012 MS4 Permit).
• Coordinate field sampling activities with field team members and
subcontracted analytical laboratories.
• Coordination between specific monitoring activities should be considered
to gain project efficiencies.
• Maintain and calibrate all necessary sampling equipment(e.g.,flow meters,
multiparameter sondes,portable samplers,water levelers,etc.)according to
manufacturer specifications.
01203.0022/287800.4
Wet weather monitoring will be conducted three (3) times per year. Specific
elements include:
• Six (6) sites (Peninsula-SD 1, Peninsula-SD2, Rolling Hills Estates City
Hall [RHECH], Valmonte, Solano, and Lariat).
• Obtain a single time-weighted composite sample per site consisting of a
manual grab sample collected once every twenty (20) minutes over a three
(3)-hour period (or at a frequency equivalent to ten (10) aliquots over the
expected duration of stormwater discharge).
Significant non-stormwater outfall dry weather monitoring will be conducted four
(4) times per year during dry weather, but only if significant non-stormwater
discharges remain unaddressed after the completion of source identification
investigation. Significant non-stormwater outfall monitoring will be conducted
after source identification is completed for each outfall. Twenty-five percent
(25%)of outfall source identifications was completed by December 28,2015, and
one hundred percent(100%)of outfall source identifications is to be completed by
the end of 2017. Therefore,up to two (2) significant non-stormwater outfalls will
be monitored in Year 1. In Years 2 to 4, a maximum of four (4) significant non-
stormwater outfalls will be monitored. Specific elements include:
• One (1) site (Outfall ID 100) in Year 1
• Three (3) sites (Outfall ID 100 and two (2) additional outfalls [e.g., Outfall
ID 50 or 53 and Outfall ID 48]) in subsequent years for the duration of the
contract
• Obtain a single grab sample
• Collect flow measurements with handheld flow meters
Machado Lake Nutrients TMDL monitoring will be conducted monthly. Specific
elements include:
• Four(4) sites (RHECH, Valmonte, Solano, and Lariat)
• Obtain a single grab sample
• Collect flow measurements with handheld flow meters
Continuous flow measurements will be conducted at two (2) sites. Specific
elements include:
• Two (2) sites (RHECH and Valmonte)
• Install flow meters in Year 1 and maintain them for the duration of the
contract
The benefits of installing fully automated samplers and flow meters for wet
weather monitoring will be evaluated in Year 1 with considerations relative to the
representativeness of automated samples, as well as cost of installation and
maintenance of automated sampling equipment compared to continuing to perform
manual grab samples.
