For purposes of this Proposal, it is presumed that the City will be obtaining a General Permit for Phase H communities. Background According to the Draft General Permit for Storm Water Discharges from Small Municipal Separate Storm Sewer Systems (1\4S4s) obtained from the Regional Board, the permitting authority for the Phase II NPDES program, the City is designated as a regulated Small MS4. To be in compliance with the NPDES Phase H regulations, Small MS4s are required to file a Notice of Intent (NOI), submittal of the City's Storm Water Management Plan Summary Outline and payment of permit fees by March 10, 2003. Project Team The key team members proposed for this work are shown below. Both team members are currently preparing storm water programs for four other Small MS4s in Sonoma County. Toni Bertolero, Project Manager Toni has over 20 years of experience in municipal civil engineering. She currently holds the title of City Engineer for the cities of Cotati and Rohnert Park and has held the title with the City of Benicia. In that regard, Toni understands the needs of small municipalities and is responsive to those needs. Toni developed the City of Benicia's Storm Water Pollution Prevention Program for construction activities, the City's Corporation Yard and the Wastewater Treatment Plant. The City's Program also included various best management practices (BMPs) such as public education, erosion control measures for grading activities, and storm water monitoring.

Her experience includes the preparation of Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plans and Spill Prevention Countermeasure and Control Plans for various industrial facilities. She managed a pollution prevention assessment program for the State of New Mexico, which analyzed the operations of small businesses, developed cost - effective alternatives to waste - generating practices, and assisted the businesses with implementing BMPs. Teresa has worked with a wide spectrum of clients, from private individuals to corporations, financial institutions, attorneys, major oil companies, and numerous municipalities. She has also worked with many regulatory agencies, including county health departments and the Regional Water Boards. Vicki Shidell, Water Quality Specialist Vicki's role will be to perform quality control/quality assurance for the Storm Water Management Plan. Vicki has been the water quality specialist for the City of Benicia and has performed in that role for about 13 years. Vicki is in charge of Benicia's storm water program and has developed and monitored that program for a number of years. Vicki has worked alongside with Selina Louie with the SF Bay Regional Water Quality Control Board and provides good insight as to what the Board staff will want to see in the program. Scope of Work Task 1— Review of Documents, City Procedures and Existing Program This initial task is the gathering of existing data, documents and review of what the City is already doing in the area of storm water management and pollution control. This task is necessary to understand what the City is already doing and taking advantage of existing procedures and practices when developing the Storm Water Management Program. Example data needs include the City's General Plan, Land Use Map, CEQA checklist, current erosion control ordinance, grading ordinance and City organization chart. Task 2 — Develop. Program Purpose and Goals Winzler & Kelly will assist the City in the development of purpose and goals for the Program. The requirements of the Phase H Final Rule state that the purpose and goals of any Phase II storm water program should include the following elements: The development and implementation of a Storm Water Management Program; The reduction of the discharge of pollutants to the "maximum extent practicable" (MEP); Protection of water quality; and Satisfaction of the appropriate water quality requirements of the Clean Water Act. �TIl�TZLER�ZI�LLY C O N S U L T I N G E N G I N E E R 5 Mr. Bill Stephens January 15, 2003 Page 3 This task will necessitate the involvement of City staff from multiple departments in several meetings with Winzler & Kelly staff. The development of goals will be based on identified issues and problems (such as storm water quality and pollutant discharges), which should be discovered through discussions and interviews with City employees and even local citizens, as appropriate. Task 3 — Identify BMPs to Address Each Minimum Control Measure Once the goals of the program are developed and the RWQCB's priorities are identified, Winzler & Kelly will assist the City in identifying and determining BMPs for selection within each of the minimum control measures to address the goals identified in Task 1. The minimum control measures developed under this task are shown below: Public Education and Outreach on Impacts Public Involvement and Participation Illicit Connection Detection and Elimination Construction Site Storm Water Runoff Control Post- Construction Storm Water Management in Development Pollution Prevention/Good Housekeeping of Municipal Operations Following the development of a select list of BMPs from these six categories, Winzler & Kelly, will help the City prioritize the list to those BMPs that address local storm water issues in the most cost - effective and feasible manner. Once the list has been narrowed down, Winzler & Kelly will develop costs and resource needs for each of the BMPs, as well as estimates of pollution reduction. Task 4 — Identify and Establish Roles and Responsibilities for BMP Implementation Winzler & Kelly will work with the City to identify the appropriate personnel resources for the team. If desired, Winzler & Kelly will assist in identifying other MS4s who may want to team with the City to pool efforts in implementation of specific BMPs. Teaming with other MS4s for this purpose is an approach that can be used to reduce costs and maximize the use of available resources. Task 5 - Develop Schedule for Implementation Winzler & Kelly will work with the City to develop a schedule of implementation for the BMPs. The schedule(s) developed with the City will consider the scope of the project or program within which the BMP or BMPs are being implemented, as well as the financial and personnel resources of the City. WINZLERsZKELLY C O N S U L T I N G E N G I N E E R S Mr, Bill Stephens January 15, 2003 Page 4 Task 6 — Permitting Winzler & Kelly will meet with City staff and the Regional Board to identify the minimum requirements the Regional Board will impart on the City in the preparation of their Phase II Permit Application. This step will, with the purpose and goals, help to identify the priorities of the storm water management program. This task includes completing the NOI for City's approval and preparation of the Storm Water Management Plan. The City will submit the completed NOI, the Storm Water Management Plan and pay applicable permit fees. The Storm Water Management Plan will be in the format developed by Selina Louie of the Regional Board entitled Phase II Guidelines. Task 7 — Project Management /Coordination/Meetings This task includes one kickoff meeting with the City and Winzler & Kelly, monthly progress reports and meetings with City staff. This task also includes the preparation of the Project Work Plan. The Work Plan will include a list of the deliverables and a schedule of the work. This task includes up to two (2) public meetings to develop goals and to identify and select BMPs. City will provide all noticing requirements for the public meetings. Estimated Fees The estimated fee for the scope of work described above is $25,000. A copy of the detailed spreadsheet is attached to this proposal. Schedule of Work The NOI and the Storm Water Management Plan is due to the RWQCB on March 10, 2003. The scope of work, as identified above, will be completed by late June, 2003. This schedule is fairly aggressive and presumes that meeting(s) with the Regional Board staff, City staff, and the public can be scheduled in a timely manner; documents requested are provided in a reasonable period of time; and City reviews are performed judiciously. Closing Winzler & Kelly looks forward to assisting the City in the preparation of their NPDES Phase H Permit Application and the development of a storm water management program that will allow the City to meet the requirements of the Phase II NPDES regulations. �UINZLERSZKELLY C O N S U L T I N G E N G I N E E R S Mr. Bill Stephens January 15, 2003 Page 5 We hope that you find this proposal acceptable.

Miscellaneous In-House S .rvices The cost of using equipment and specialized supplies is billed on the basis of employee hours dedicated to projects. This method is less costly, but less precise, than billing on the basis of "units of service." We strive to maintain fair and competitive rates, designed to recover our investment in these items which bring increased efficiency to employee labor. Instead of billing one rate with no regard to the types of projects, we have opted to apply four separate rates, such that only those projects utilizing certain types of equipment are charged. Our rates are: A. Office consumables $5.00 /hr B. Environmental Department consumables $10.00 /hr C. Survey consumables $10.00/hr D.
