Today the company is a cohesive team of more than 70 professionals and includes services in Civil and Transpor- tation Engineering, Water Resources, Surveying/GIS Solutions, Construction Management, Landscape Architecture, Mechanical Engineering, Planning and Public Works Administration. Wallace Group specializes in Transportation Planning and Engineering with an emphasis on public agency work and coordination with Caltrans. We are recognized leaders in round-about and trail design as well as for delivering multi-disciplinary transportation projects like this one. Civil and Transportation Engineering services are under the direction of Jorge Aguilar, Principal in Charge of the department. Jorge has spent his entire career working in the transportation field and leads a strong team specializing in transportation planning, design and Caltrans coordination at Wallace Group. As a firm we have a primary focus on working with cities, counties, and other public agencies. We fill a variety of roles for local agencies. As a result, we have the insights into the budgeting, planning, funding, regulation, design, construction and operation of public facilities. It just makes us more conscious of the importance of being efficient and prudent when using public funds. We know that building better communities requires sound planning and innovative engineering. Wallace Group provides a full spectrum of design and development services which allows us to thoroughly plan and deliver any project. Our engineers can creatively plan both public and private facilities, giving us the ability to integrate the interrelationship of land, water, and transportation circulation in our projects, while considering smart growth, sustainability, and economic viability. We take great care in working with the natural lay of the land to maximize cost-effective sustainability while enhancing physical characteristics. 6 7 2- Q U A L I F I C A T I O N S Avila Beach Drive at Us 101 InterchangeCounty of San Luis Obispo, Avila Beach, California The County is about to break ground on an operational and safety improvement project for the Avila Beach Drive and US 101 interchange. The project consists of a new roundabout at the southbound US 101 ramp terminal/frontage road intersection, sight distance improve-ments at the northbound ramp terminal, and a park-and-ride facility within the County right of way located southwest of the interchange. The Wallace Group design team spearheaded the utility coordination, geotechnical investigation and analysis, traffic operations analysis, water quality and hydraulics, retaining wall structural design, roadway geometric design, landscape architecture, and plan development. Vehicular congestion and unconventional intersections within the interchange exacerbate conflicts with non-motorized users and increase the potential conflicts for vulnerable us-ers. Concerns for vehicular safety improvements at the southbound ramp terminal and for slowing of northbound to westbound vehicles are key drivers of this project. A single lane roundabout was identified as the preferred alternative in project initiation and confirmed in the PA&ED process. Wallace Group assisted the County with public outreach and stakehold-er coordination. Wallace Group delivered the PA&ED phase in 2020 and finalized the design Plans, Specifications & Estimate (PS&E) phase in 2023. Construction is kicking off in April.

In 2017, Wallace Group developed various concepts as part of the Development Impact Fee (DIF) Program update for the City, looking at long term needs. In 2019, we helped the City develop the concept for a near-term cost-effective solution to the traffic operational issues at the intersection. The innovative, “dog bone”, single lane roundabout avoided private property acquisition and had lessened utility impacts. The Wallace Group team analyzed traffic operations for the intersection and developed photo and video simulations of the proposed improvements. In the final design phase, the Wallace Group team provided a field densification survey, utility design and coordination, geotechnical assessment, public outreach exhibits, storm water quality, drainage, street lighting, landscape, and roadway design services. The roundabout was designed to accommodate trucks, buses, and passenger vehicles, and included a late-stage modifications to accommodate 107’ trucks and trailers with 4.5” vertical clearance. Construction was completed in June of 2023 with Wallace Group working closely with the City, Contractor, and Construction Management team to provide comprehensive detour planning for the intersection closure and additional design support services.

The project proposes a road diet from four lanes to two lanes with a center parking area modeled after the “ramblas” in Barcelona. Wallace Group Staff & Roles Jorge Aguilar, PESarah Huffman, PE, Project Manager/Project EngineerSteven Tanaka, PE, Utility EngineerEthan Pence, PE, Staff EngineerNancie Adams, Electrical EngineeringMatt Wilkins, PLA, StreetscapingRachel Hawthorne, QA/QC Reference Ryan Hayes 6500 Palma Avenue Atascadero, California, 93442805 470-3424rhayes@atascadero.org The concept design went through several iterations of public outreach and was approved by City Council in 2020. In 2021, the City hired the Wallace Group team to lead the project through to final construction documents. The team consisted of Earth Systems, KTUA, Central Coast Transportation Consultants, and Kittelson & Associates provided geotechnical, streetscaping, electrical design, and traffic review support. Wallace Group performed topographic and right of way survey mapping, refined the concept with additional community outreach, coordinated with utility companies, analyzed stormwater requirements, and submitted the final PS&E to the City. Construction is anticipated to begin in June of 2024. The objectives of this project include providing safer crossings for pedestrians, increasing parking to support economic growth, and creating an attractive des-tination for the community. The center parking areas are flexible spaces that may be used as event spaces during street closures. The Project limits include the El Camino Real corridor from Highway 41 to Rosario Avenue in Atascadero, California. 10 Buckley Road ExtensionSan Luis Obispo, California The Buckley Road extension provides a much-needed East-West connection across the outskirts of San Luis Obispo. This extension connects Hwy 227 with South Higuera Street, improving access to Hwy 101N by rerouting traffic to the on ramp on South Higuera and allowing drivers to bypass the often-congested Los Osos Valley Road on ramp. The road was built by Wathen Castanos as part of the Avila Ranch Development but serves as a vital need for the entire community with its improved circulation. This road extension was approximately one third of a mile long and includes a new storm drain mainline, flush curbs and biofiltration strips, overflow structures, and ditches. Shared use paths and bike lanes consistent with the City’s Bike Master Plan provide regional multi-modal connectivity. Wallace Group was the civil engineer, with Whitaker Construction, the City of SLO, the County of SLO, and Caltrans all contributing to the success of this project.

The Feasibility Study/Technical Memo provided City staff with the background information needed to inform the City Council on the direction of the final design. We recommended that the City replace the existing three span bridge structure with a single span bridge that will offer protection to the existing 24-inch diameter gravity sewer line in times of high flow. The single span bridge also improves the creek’s hydraulics. Preliminary plans for the roadway widening and the extension of the Bob Jones Trail along San Luis Creek and underneath the new bridge structure have been prepared. Based on our Phase 1 work and continuous coordination with Caltrans Local Assistance, the replacement of the existing bridge was approved. Wallace Group completed the PA&ED phase and has secured bridge type selection concurrence from Caltrans and is now in final design. As part of final design our team prepared the survey mapping, utility coordination and design, landscape architecture/streetscape design, Plans, Specifications, and Estimate (PS&E) for the Prado Road Bridge Widening Project. We provided large scale ground-survey mapping and roadway design for approximately 2,500 feet of City arterial with Right of Way research of adjacent frontages and approximately 1,000 feet of creek corridor. The design includes utilities, hardscape, bridge features, sewer and storm structure inverts, striping and found survey monuments. The mapping specific to the bridge structure included a detailed survey of the bridge columns and utilities attached to the bridge structure. We also provided public outreach and multi-disciplinary project management for a large team.

APPROACH Wallace Group team members are ready, able, and committed to providing on-call transportation design services to the City of San Luis Obispo to take projects from project initiation through construction completion. 31 SCOPE OF PROJECT The work program that we anticipate for transportation design projects is a straightforward approach to planning then preparing a Plans, Specifications and Esti-mate (PS&E) package. However, one aspect of the work which we pay particular attention to is obtaining a full understanding of the City’s needs and approach to projects. We know that public works is not just engineering design –it may be that there is a need for neighborhood/stakeholder input, or a unique requirement of the funding program, or a particular environmental concern. It is our goal to understand all the aspects that are needed to make a project successful and to incor-porate them into the products delivered. As each project or task order is identified, the Contract Manager will identify a Project Manager and team best suited for the City's needs. Our diverse team can be leveraged for various applications and work orders. Our project team knows each project starts with the successful planning of a project. The Project Manager will discuss the project with City staff to develop a tailored scope of work for the project. Once the team and scope are determined, we typically hold a kick-off meeting with key members of our team and City staff to establish joint expectations and discuss needs for the specific project. GATHER INFORMATION, INPUT & CONDUCT SITE VISITS Wallace Group provides in-house survey services and has supported the City of San Luis Obispo on numerous projects in the past few years. Our team begins each project by confirming the project scope, researching existing data, delineating mapping limits, and scheduling field time. Based on the type of project, we may utilize a combination of aerial photomapping, scanning, and total station surveying to safely gather the necessary data. In the case of underground utility location, we may engage the services of a traffic control subcontractor. We take pride in our ability to design a precise and accurate survey control framework that serves as the foundation for our field projects. Through care and attention to detail, we increase efficiency and the quality of collected data. In the field, we perform data collection and measurements for design and topographic surveys, and locate existing monuments for delineating right of way and property lines. Monument control and preservation requires repeated observations of control points and a final set of adjusted control that will move forward with each project. Monument preservation includes the additional procedure of setting reference ties to the monument and filing the appropriate map with the County Surveyor. PRELIMINARY WORK 32 3- W O R K P R O G R A M Record and title research can be done online or in-person at the County offices. We subscribe to Data Tree or Parcel Quest for most of our initial property research. We utilize the County database of record mapping and visit the County Surveyor in person to conduct in-depth research on difficult mapping tasks. We then work with several title companies to obtain Preliminary Title Reports and Conditions of Title for our right of way (ROW) engineering projects. Plat and legal description for property acquisition preparation begins with record and title research. The underlying fee documents are referenced, and property areas are described using metes and bounds, monuments, and map references. DEVELOP CONCEPTS A concept layout is typically put together based on the surveyed base map, project scope, and input from the project kick off meeting. This initial layout is used to develop detailed information: geotechnical, environmental, and utility coordination. DEVELOP DETAILED INFORMATION GEOTECHNICAL, PAVEMENT DEFLECTIONS AND CORINGS Wallace Group has teamed with Earth Systems Pacific (ESP) and Pavement Engineering, Inc. (PEI) to provide geotechnical engineering and pavement maintenance services. These two companies will support transportation design projects that are to be completed by the Wallace Group team. The geotechnical team performs site investigations and laboratory testing to inform the geotechnical engineering report. Pavement section design alternative recommendations for various traffic indices and design approaches are typically included in the report, as well as infiltration testing results for sizing water quality features, and recommendations for facilities near the water quality features and for utility trenching. We review plans and specifications with respect to geotechnical findings and attend pre-construction meetings to establish geotechnical expectations and verify that contractors understand recommendations and specifications. Plats are prepared for each legal description and are drafted to clearly show the intent of each description. We also identify any visible right of way obstructions/conflicts to construction such as existing utilities. 33 ENVIRONMENTAL STUDIES We will work directly with SWCA, a trusted local partner located in San Luis Obispo. As part of our team, SWCA will assist with the preparation of technical reports, such as biological and cultural resource reports, that may be needed for any given project to comply with both CEQA and NEPA. SWCA will coordinate directly with regulatory agencies, such as the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE), California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW), and the Regional Water Quality Control Board (RWQCB), to ensure the project meets all necessary requirements. Qualified staff are also readily available to perform preconstruction surveys and construction monitoring for endangered species and archaeological artifacts. SWCA will start with an initial assessment of the project concept and site conditions and then work with designers and City staff to create a listing of technical studies and determine the type of environmental document required. To deliver the project in an effective manner, our team will focus on clear facilitation of the project while meeting regulatory needs. TRAFFIC STUDIES CCTC and DKS are both included on our team to provide holistic travel demand modeling and multi-modal traffic op-erational analysis. Their variety of skills and experience are sure to meet the City's needs! CCTC has supported the City on numerous occasions, and has provided traffic modeling and analysis services to the Wallace Group team on many projects, including the Prado Road Creek Bridge project in the City. They are intimately familiar with the City’s policy and programs, Transcad Traffic Model, and SLOCOG’s Countywide Transportation Model. DKS has been providing traffic mod-eling and operational analysis services in San Luis Obispo County, is familiar with the regional model, and has a large pool of qualified analysts ready to draw from. As a combined force, our team has the breadth and depth of experience to assist the City with any transportation engineering project. UTILITY COORDINATION Utility coordination is critical to many projects. We follow the general process in the Caltrans Local Procedures Manual. We send out “A” Letters that inform the utility companies in the area of the proposed project and ask for any “as-built” drawings for any utilities. Once the design has progressed to a point where utility conflicts have been identified, a Notice to Owners “B” letter is sent to the affected utility companies indicating that there is a conflict. Depending on the complexity of the project and the conflicts, we may recommend potholing or meeting in the field with the affected utilities to discuss relocation options. Once a relocation strategy has been established, a utility agreement is prepared and sent to the utility company for signature. The “C” letter is the noticing letter to relocate the utility facility. 34 3- W O R K P R O G R A M ENGINEERING & DESIGN As shared, Wallace Group is a full-service, multi-disciplinary engineering firm that can pro-vide transportation planning and design for various types of transportation projects from curb ramp and sidewalk projects to longer bike trails, intersection reconstructions, and interchange improvements. Our team specializes in multimodal improvements, road repair and maintenance, storm drain repairs and maintenance, and coordination with Caltrans Local Assistance. In addition to our in-house transportation design professionals, we have teamed with Cornerstone Structural Engineering Group for structural support services and with CCTC for electrical design of signal and lighting facilities. A preliminary engineering task is often useful to analyze multiple project alternatives and compare impacts to private properties and utilities, traffic operations, construction costs, environmental and hydraulic considerations. Once a preferred alternative has been select-ed, our design/engineering process typically includes 65%, 95%, and Final milestone sub-mittals of the project plans, specifications, and cost estimate (PS&E). The specifications are written following Caltrans standards, and the cost estimate is organized based on Caltrans bid item codes. Our PS&E packages undergo a QA/QC review before each major submittal. The final design is developed using the survey base map and incorporates environmental mitigations and utility considerations. The PS&E submittals are also supported by drainage reports, stormwater control plans, and structural type selection reports. Our team is familiar with the Caltrans project delivery process and has experience writing Project Study Reports and assisting with the process from project initiation to project close-out. DEVELOPMENT REVIEW The Wallace Group team is prepared to assist the City with technical reviews of efforts directed to roadway design, including PS&E packages and traffic studies. We routinely provide similar services to other agencies on the Central Coast such as the City of Paso-Robles, City of Seaside, City of Hollister, and others. In addition, we have included peer reviews within our project scopes to truth test our own designs and ensure a vetted and optimized design moves forward. Our team believes in the importance of collaboration and team work for the benefit of our community! The technical aspects of a project are certainly not the only focus. The public, constituents, planning staff, design review boards, planning commissions, and councils are key stakeholders in the approval process of the project. A project is often initiated by or may affect one or more stakeholders, and the ability to clearly communicate proposals, impacts and benefits is key to the approval process. We have partnered with Hamner Jewell & Associates (HJA) for property owner outreach, appraisal, and acquisition services and Verdin Marketing for public outreach services. Our team has decades of experience in using colorful exhibits and clear/plain language to engage and coordinate with stakeholders. We provide public workshop coordination, public meeting presentations and support services to staff for their agenda package prepa-ration. We enjoy this process and look forward to working with project stakeholders. COMMUNICATIONS 35 PERMITS Many projects require permits/agreements from regulatory agencies, such as the USACE, CDFW, and the RWQCB. Our team will be supported by SWCA to prepare permit packages including: completed permit applications, maps of the project location, site photographs, construction plans, and pertinent background reports. To facilitate the permitting process, SWCA will prepare signature-ready application packages following completion of the applicable technical studies. Once environmental review has been completed, all supporting documents would be submitted to the agencies to supplement the application packages. Compliance with the Central Coast RWQCB Post Construction Stormwater Requirements will be evaluated for each project. Wallace Group will collaborate with the City to select the appropriate stormwater control measures to comply with the site design, water quality, retention, and peak flow requirements. Our team also has familiarity working with the UPRR, Air Pollution Control District (APCD), and Caltrans for coordination and approvals related to their jurisdiction. BIDING & CONSTRUCTION SUPPORT During the advertising phase of projects, Wallace Group design staff can be available to support the City. Our team can prepare and submit a Resident Engineer’s File containing quantity calculations, utility contact information, copies of permits and agreements (if required), etc. Our staff will work with City staff to reply to and record Contractor Requests for Information (RFI’s) and if necessary, issue Addenda to the advertised bid package. We will also be available to review the City's bid tabulation to provide our input on the responsiveness of bidders. Our role in a project does not end once the project is out to construction. We are ready to provide construction support activities such as addenda and responses to Requests for Information (RFI’s) and review of product submittals and site visits during construction. Our team includes Resident Engineers and Inspectors who can provide on-site construction management as well as constructability and plan review services, if requested.
