Exhibit A
Avenue Subject. Proposal to Prepare CEQA Docurnentation for the Dowdel'
Extension Project
Dear Ms. Ponton:
Thank you for the opportunity to provide a scope -of -work and cost estimate to prepare
CEQA documentation for the proposed Dowdell Avenue Extension roadway project. Dudek
has conducted technical studies for this project and is currently working to secure resources
permitting from state and federal resource agencies. This scope of work will provide the
appropriate CEQA environmental review to satisfy the requirements of the California
Department of Fish and Wildlife and the Regional Water Quality Control Board and provide
for issuance of permits required from these agencies for the project.
The attached scope of work outlines the work program to complete CEQA compliance. The
estimated cost to complete the proposed work program is $10,000. Please contact me if you
have any questions about the work program or cost estimate.
Sincerely,
VVVIs "N'(IE DEK.t "",-,! "
The City prepared an Environmental Impact Report for the Stadium Area Master Plan project,
which provided an initial analysis of the proposed Dowdell Avenue roadway extension north of the
Master Plan area. Because project details were unknown at the time, the Master Plan EIR did not
provide project level analysis necessary to meet CEQA compliance requirements to support
permitting through the California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW) and the Regional
Water Quality Control Board (RWQCB).
Dudek's Work Program will rely on the technical studies prepared to date for cultural and
biological resources and hazardous materials, as well as pertinent information contained in the
Master Plan EIR, to prepare an Initial Study and Mitigated Negative Declaration and Mitigation
Monitoring Plan that provide a project level analysis of the proposed roadway extension project.
The document will be prepared to meet agency requirements for CEQA compliance and will
support permitting by State agencies for the project. This work program assumes that no
additional technical studies will be required.
The following is a brief overview of the work program necessary to prepare the appropriate
documents, assumptions related to the work program, and a cost estimate for completion of the
described tasks.
Work Program
The following Task Outline describes each specific task the Dudek team will complete in providing
environmental review services to the City of Rohnert Park for the Dowdell Roadway Extension
Project. The proposed Schedule and Cost Estimate are presented at the end of this section.
TASK 1: PROJECT INITIATION /SITE RECONNAISSANCE/
DATA COLLECTION
Upon authorization to proceed, Dudek will collect data and review pertinent project
documentation and other environmental information relevant to the project site and vicinity. This
will include technical studies, the Master Plan EIR, and the City's General Plan and other relevant
adopted planning guidance documents. A site visit is not necessary, as visits were conducted for
surveys of the site for other studies, and it is assumed that no formal kickoff meeting will be
required.
The development of a thorough project description is the critical first step in preparing a legally
adequate environmental document. Using information provided by the City, Dudek will prepare a
detailed Project Description to support the CEQA analysis. Much of this information has already
been provided by the City to support permitting efforts. The project description will include a
description of:
• The existing environmental setting
• The land uses surrounding the site
• Project components and construction techniques and phasing based on plans and
information provided by the City.
DUDEK Project No. 7527— Scope of Work— Dowdell Roadway Extension CEQA 2
Dudek will submit a draft project description to the City for review and comment and will make
any necessary revisions prior to moving forward with the environmental analysis. The Project
description graphics will include a site and vicinity map, an aerial photograph displaying project -area
boundaries, and photographs as necessary.
The CEQA analysis will rely on studies previously prepared for biological and cultural resources, as well
as the Phase I ESA prepared by Dudek. It is anticipated that no new technical studies will be required
for preparing the CEQA analysis. Dudek will consult with the Bay Area Air Quality Management
District (BAAQMD) to determine the appropriate level of analysis for the roadway project. As
necessary, emissions from the project will be modeled using the CaIEEMod emissions modeling
program. Modeling inputs will be obtained from the operational- and construction phase equipment -use
information provided by the City. Modeling outputs will include estimates of greenhouse gas emissions
to support the analysis of air quality and climate change impacts in the IS.
ADMINISTRATIVE
INITIAL AND MITIGATION
MONITORING
Upon the City's approval of the Project Description, Dudek will
prepare an Administrative Draft Initial Study (IS) following the
latest version of CEQA Guidelines Appendix G. The IS will
identify potential environmental impacts and mitigation
measures necessary to reduce project impacts to less -than-
significant levels.
The Administrative Draft Mitigation Monitoring Plan (MMP) will
be submitted to the City with the IS and will provide a plan for
implementing the mitigation measures identified in the IS. The
MMP will identify:
• The party(ies) responsible for implementation of
mitigation measures
• The party(ies) responsible for monitoring of mitigation
measures
• Time frames for implementation and monitoring of
mitigation measures
• Performance criteria to be used in the monitoring
actions
RiSOURCE AREAS ADDRESSED IN
THE INITIAL STUDY

• Funding sources for each mitigation measure, where available.
The Administrative Draft IS and MMP will be submitted to the City in electronic format for review
and comment.
TASK 5: FR. FT IS / MITIGATION MONITORING
DECLARATION/NOTICE OF INTENI
Dudek will revise the Administrative Draft IS and MMP to incorporate comments provided by City
staff and prepare the Draft Mitigated Negative Declaration (MND) and MMP along with a Notice of
DUDEK Project No. 7527 —Scope of Work— Dowdell Roadway Extension CEQA 3
Intent to adopt an MND. This work program assumes that revisions required will not be
substantial and that only one round of comments and revisions will be necessary. Dudek will
provide the City with one electronic copy of the Draft MND and MMP.
This work program assumes the City will be responsible for public noticing, document
reproduction and distribution, and required filing and fees associated with filing the document with
the City Clerk— Recorder's office, including the California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW)
CEQA review fee (currently $2,156.25 for an MND).
After the close of the public circulation period, Dudek will review any comments received on the
draft document and consult with the City regarding any substantive comments. Dudek will prepare
written responses to each comment. Any changes to the text of the IS as a result of comments
received will be made. Dudek will submit the responses to comments and revised IS (if applicable)
to the City in electronic format for review. The budget for this task assumes responses to no more
than 10 individual comments.
