This _ proposal provides the technical approach, cost, schedule, and team qualifications and experience for project management and the preparation of the Focused Environmental Impact Report (Focused EIR). We believe that the professionals in our firm are ideally suited for managing the preparation and processing of the Focused EIR for several key reasons. First, our staff has extensive knowledge of the major planning, environmental, and political issues which can affect the City of San Luis Obispo as it considers a major project such as the adoption of a new street j setback line on one of its major streets. Second, the principals of Sanchez Talarico Associates take pride in taking a "hands on" role in the firm's projects by assuming the role of Project Manager. We believe that in order to fully understand the complexities of a specific project and to perform essential management and coordination i tasks, direct participation by our firm's principals is imperative. As a j relatively small firm, we offer direct and immediate response to client l requests. Ae principals retain project management responsibilities throughout the �._ length of the project which provides for continuity and smoother processing. We are prepared to make the commitment that our two Principals /Project Managers, Annette Sanchez and Fred Talarico, will i. maintain constant and direct involvement throughout the project's duration. Annette Sanchez, Principal in the firm of Sanchez Talarico Associates, will be directly responsible for project management, preparation and processing of all environmental documentation, and organization and moderation of public presentations. Ms. Sanchez has extensive experience managing Environmental Impact Reports for road projects. She has prepared environmental documents for numerous road projects in the cities of Irvine, Tustin, Newport Beach, and Escondido and the County of Orange. These projects have included the following: EIS: Alton /I -5 Interchange and Irvine Center Drive /I -405 Interchange Modification, City of Irvine. EA /IS: Via Rancho Parkway /1 -15 Interchange Modification,-' City of Escondido. EA /EIR: Widening and Realignment of Moulton Parkway /Irvine Center Drive, City of Tustin. C, 2 EIS: Widening of Pacific Coast Highway, City of Newport Beach EIR: Foothill Transportation Corridor Route Location Study, County of Orange. i_ Fred Talarico, who will provide assistance on the project, also has had extensive experience while a staff member at the City of Newport Beach with several road improvement projects involving Federally funded and /or State highway road improvement projects. Third, Sanchez Talarico Associates has assembled a team of professionals j with extensive experience with those issues important to the successful completion of the proposed tasks. Our technical subconsultants all have extensive experience in local, state, and federal road improvement projects. All have worked with Ms. Sanchez on previous transportation projects. Fourth, we have completed two draft project environmental assessments within the past year. We are presently preparing an environmental assessment for a major interchange on the 405- Freeway in the City of San i Clemente. Fifth, we understand that the City's objective is to expeditiously prepare and process necessary environmental documentation in order to receive f approval of the project in a timely manner. We understand the importance of this roadway in relation to the City's circulation system and its relationship to development in the area. Our staff and subconsultants are prepared to serve as an extension of City staff in order to fulfill this objective. Sixth, we propose to prepare the EIR in a cost - effective manner within the t proposed schedule. The EIR will be turned in on time and all revisions will be made as requested. At all times, we will be responsive to the special needs of the staff and decisionmakers. i i i i - i i E` i i ' hl q TECHNICAL APPROACH UNDERSTANDING OF THE PROJECT The City of San Luis Obispo General Plan Land Use and Circulation Elements support the proposal to widen Monterey Street. The project will impact existing businesses and has created some controversy within the community. The widening may cause .significant adverse impacts on the environment and on the people who live and /or work in the area. Because of these facts the City has determined that a Focused Environmental Impact Report should be prepared. It is our understanding that at present no widening is proposed. The project will change the plan line. This change will then become the guide :' for future development. J fWt►ile existing businesses will not be, affected, the line will guide the redevelopment of the area. The Focused EIR must address the ultimate ground -to -plan effects of the project as required by the California Environmental Quality Act. Additionally, it must address the implementation of the project over a number of years. It is the City's desire to prepare the Focused EIR at this time so that new development may be required to incorporate possible mitigation measures. Additionally, the Focused EIR can incorporate a tiering concept to allow for implementation over a number of years, avoiding costly time delays and €xpenses. The Focused EIR must also examine various alternative locations for the street setback line. The clear understanding by the community that all possible alternatives were evaluated fairly is an important consideration in the CEQA process. GENERAL APPROACH AND PHILOSOPHY Our approach to preparing environmental assessments and land use planning documents could best be described by three key concepts: "Extension of Staff," "Problem- Solving," and "Legal Defensibility." The first concept, "Extension of Staff," expresses our desire to operate closely with the public a€�ency staff. It has been our experience that the only way to produce a document which contains an accurate and useful analysis is to develop a close working relationship with all interested staff members. Remaining strictly an "outside" consultant most often produces a document which does not adequately reflect the existing conditions, project issues, and planning goals of the jurisdiction. It is our primary goal to work productively with staff and its retained consultants to prepare a document that is accurate, useful, and cost-effective. 4 The second concept, "Problem - . Solving" ,represents what we believe should be the true value of the environmental process. The real benefit of the environmental process is its ability to modify a project so that it reflects the desire of the agency staff, decisionmakers, and community. Formulating and evaluating mitigation measures should serve as a mechanism for problem solving. Measures should be specifically tailored to the unique problems of the project and its environs. Therefore, the evaluation, recommendation, and incorporation of mitigation measures and alternatives are very important to the successful development of a project and its ultimate success in the political arena. The third concept, "Legal Defensibility," is often a very important concept to an agency engaged in large -scale sensitive and controversial projects. We take pride in our knowledge and experience related to preparing and processing environmental documents that discourage and /or withstand legal challenge. There is no greater frustration than to complete a lengthy and controversial political and planning process only to lose a project in the courts. We prepare and process an EIR which meets every requirement of CEQA and all recent court interpretations of CEQA. We also make sure that all supporting documents in the public record are sufficient to withstand a legal challenge. SPECIFIC APPROACH TO THE PROJECT We propose to prepare a Screencheck, Draft EIR, and Response to Comments/ Final EIR with all supporting documents in accordance with CEQA, State CEQA Guidelines, and the City's adopted procedures for the implementation of CEQA. We will utilize, to the fullest extent possible, any planning/ _ engineering studies coverigg'the _project_+- x v: We will provide an environmental analysis which will discuss all potential adverse impacts, both project - related and cumulative. We will prepare a thorough and comprehensive EIR which will identify and resolve contro- versial issues. The City will be assured that all legitimate issues have been thoroughly examined and mitigated to the fullest extent feasible. Working with City staff -, we will develop mitigation measures which will allow the.City to meet its objectives. The project manager will be Ms.. Annette Sanchez.. She will be assisted by Mr. Fred Talarico. Ms. Sanchez will be responsible for the preparation of the EIR and all related notices and documents. We are extending a firm commitment to the City of San Luis Obispo that she will be the "hands -on" project manager and contact.person. The project will not be shuttled off to a subordinate with the manager never heard from after the initial scoping sessions. We are willing to make this commitment in recognition of the sensitive nature of the project. 1 • 5 SCOPE OF SERVICES INTRODUCTION As we propose the scope of services, there are five basic tasks. These tasks are as follows: ° Notice of Preparation and Subsequent Notices ° Preparation of Environmental Impact Report ° Preparation of Responses to Comments ° Coordination with Interested Parties ° Attendance at Meetings and Hearings We also understand that it is of the utmost importance to prepare an environmental document and support material which: 1. meets all requirements and recent court interpretations of CEQA; 2. identifies and analyzes all important issues in a responsible and comprehensive manner; 3. recommends a comprehensive package of mitigation measures which will resolve controversial issues; 4. provides for efficient use of City -staff time; _ 5. is.reflective of City policies and goals; - 6. is prepared in a timely and cost - effective manner. Our team is prepared to assign staff and resources sufficient to implement the scope of services from contract authorization to plan approval.. We have sufficient staffing and production capabilities for all work tasks. The following is a discussion of our understanding of the five major work tasks . NOTICE OF PREPARATION AND SUBSEQUENT NOTICES We will prepare and distribute the Notices of Preparation, Completion, and Determination. We have assumed that City staff will take responsibility for posting the Notice of Determination and filing the notice with the County. - n a�i' ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT GENERAL J - The Focused EIR will address the range of environmental topics required by the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and the City of San Luis Obispo. The document will be prepared in accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act of 1970 as amended, the State Guidelines for the Implementation of the California Environmental Quality Act of 1970 as amended, and appropriate City policies. In addition to the importance of the thoroughness of the evaluation, we understand that the document must be easily understood by decisionmakers and laypersons. We plan to rely heavily on clear and informative graphics which will illustrate the findings of the study. We propose to prepare clear and concise summaries of both "Impacts, Mitigation, and Level of Significance After Mitigation" and "Alternatives." We also propose to prepare separate summaries of "Unavoidable Adverse Impacts," "Insignificant Impacts," "Cumulative Impacts," and "Applicable City Policies, Requirements„ and Mitigation Measures." The following discussion provides the EIR with regards to general methodology, and assumptions to be GENERAL SUMMARY OF IMPACTS /MITI SUMMARY OF ALTERNATIVES a brief description of each section of content, key issues, level of detail., used in our analysis. 3ATION MEASURES /LEVEL OF SIGNIFICANCE; Two summaries will be provided in front of the main text of the EIR. The General Summary provides the reader with a brief description of all potential impacts, recommended mitigation measures, and the resulting level of significance after mitigation. The Summary of Alternatives compares the impacts of all alternatives. INTRODUCTION The Introduction section briefly describes the project location, previous environmental documentation and background for the proposed project area, format and content of the EIR, and contact persons for the proposed project.' PROJECT DESCRIPTION This section will describe the location and characteristic of the proposed project.. The section will identify the project proponent and other key contacts, define the purpose and objectives of the project, and list the applicable discretionary actions. DESCRIPTION OF LOCAL AND REGIONAL LAND USES RELATING TO THE PROJECT The intent of this section is to give the reader a brief overview of the development and planning activities for the area. The section will briefly describe existing land uses and applicable land use plans for the project site and surrounding area. The section will also list and illustrate the location of approved and proposed projects in the planning area. We will discuss development proposals for property in the area, planning programs affecting the project site and its vicinity, and infrastructure improve- ments planned or under construction which would provide service to the area. ENVIRONMENTAL SETTING, IMPACTS, AND MITIGATION MEASURES Land Use /Aesthetics The land use and aesthetic impacts of the project will be analyzed by Sanchez Talarico Associates. It is anticipated that the project will have an adverse impact on land uses with the corridor. Anticipated changes will be identified. The severity of the changes will be evaluated. Additionally, the ability of the project to influence land use changes will be discussed. We will discuss the relationship of the project to surrounding existing and planned land uses. The relationship of the project -to all applicable City plans "and programs will be discussed. An outline of existing land use regulations related to the project will be prepared with the assistance of the Community Development Department. The effects of the change of setback line will be evaluated in terms of the Zoning Code. The actual impact on potential development on sites will be discussed in a general manner so as to allow for meaningful comparison. Finally, construction - related effects will be analyzed within this and all other applicable section of the Focused EIR. Issues which will be covered include the length of time for conversion to the new setback line, construction noise, temporary construction equipment fumes and emissions, dust, energy consumption, and effects of detouring on existing traffic conditions. Transportation,. Circulation, and Parking The complete scope of services for the traffic study is included in Appendix A. Briefly, the study will involve the following three tasks. The first task will include assemble of all available data pertinent to the study area. This will include previous studies, widening proposals, right -of -way maps, existing and projected traffic volumes, City land use and circulation plans, and similar data. A field review will be accomplished to familiarize the traffic engineer with the study area. '. r r� u N q The second task will be to quantify existing traffic conditions. It is anticipated that volume /capacity comparisons could be utilized to indicate current Levels of Service. Future conditions would also be evaluated utilizing projected traffic volumes. Consideration will be give to potential diversions of traffic to parallel routes due to lack of capacity on Monterey Street. Construction impacts on bicycle and pedestrian traffic and other related factors will be analyzed. The third major task will be the evaluation of parking demands and supplies. This would be accomplished based upon a review of available data. The potential impacts of the loss of parking due to street widening program will be identified. Mitigation measures will be proposed related to the impacts on both a long term and interim basis. The level of significance of project impacts after mitigation will be noted. Noise The acoustical engineering firm of Mestre Greve Associates will conduct the noise study for the project. Existing and future noise contours will be calculated based on roadway noise. These will be presented in both a graphic and tabular format. Noise impacts from traffic on adjacent land uses will be fully analyzed. The incremental increase in noise levels generated by project - related traffic will be quantified and discussed in relation to existing and expected future noise levels. Short -term construction noise impacts will also be addressed. Mitigation measures will be analyzed and recommended to alleviate any long -term or short -term noise impacts. The analysis will assess the existing noise environment through a comprehensive noise measurement and modeling survey, project future noise levels based on traffic volimmes, speeds, and mix characteristics, and determine any potential impacts due to the project. Noise level projections (with and without the project) will take into account any existing barriers along the route. The analysis will be conducted in both CNEL and LEQ (Federal) noise scales. Ultimate noise levels will be discussed- in terms of local, state, and federal noise standards. If necessary, mitigation measures will be identified for areas exceeding noise standards. Public Services Sanchez Talarico Associates will contact all utility and public service agencies which will serve the project site. The ability of these agencies to provide the site with adequate service will be discussed. In addition, any potential adverse impacts to existing and future levels of service will be analyzed and mitigated. -� a 9 ALTERNATIVES The F.iR will address alternatives to the proposed project- We will discuss No- Developm�4t alternative and up to two design alternatives. We will aiso discuss "up to two additional alternatives at the City's discretion. The primary purpose alternatives determine if any uldavoidpotent al significant unavoidable drseimpactsothe project. GROWTH- INDUCING IMPACTS The project's potential to induce growth in the surrounding area will be carefully analyzed. Certain improvements wn associated the ar area to the develop project their may improve the ability of p r p Y parcels. LONG -TERM IMPLICATIONS OF THE PROPOSED PROJECT "The Relationship Between Local Short -Term Uses of Man's Environment and the Maintenance and Enhancement of Long -Term Productivity" and "Significant Irreversible Change Which Would be Involved in the Proposed Action Should It Be Implemented" will be discussed. According to CEQA, these two sections will discuss the following- First, "Describe the cumulative and long -term effects of the proposed project which adversely affect the state of the environment. Special attention should be given to impacts which narrow the range of beneficial uses of the environment or pose long -term risks to health or safety..." Second, "Uses of non - renewable. resources during the initial and continued phases of the project may be irreversible since a large commitment of such resources makes removal or non -use thereafter unlikely. Primary impacts and, particularly, secondary impacts - -• generally commit future generations to similar uses... Irretrievable commitments of resources should be evaluated to assure that such current consumption is justified." (Section 15126.f) INVENTORY OF UNAVOIDABLE ADVERSE IMPACTS OF THE PROPOSED PROJECT SUMMARY OF IMPACTS FOUND NOT TO BE SIGNIFICANT We will prepare a summary of all unavoidable adverse impacts associated with implementation of the proposed project. This summary will provide the necessary data for preparation of the Statement of Findings and Facts in Support of Findings. We will also prepare a summary of those impacts which determined were through Initial Study and/or insignificantandthose impactswhichweredeterminedetoebe mitigablettoha level of insignificance. 10 INVENTORY OF CUMULATIVE IMPACTS J This section will analyze the possible cumulative adverse impacts on the area resulting from implementation of the proposed project in conjunction will other past, present.,, and reasonably foreseeable projects. Specific attention will be paid to projects approved or proposed in the area adjacent to Monterey Street. Emphasis will be on issues such as traffic, noise, and public services. SUMMARY OF APPLICABLE MITIGATION MEASURES In addition to the discussion of applicable mitigation measures presented in each environmental topic section, we will compile a summary list of all proposed mitigation measures for the project. COORDINATION WITH INTERESTED PARTIES Given the scope and sensitivity of the project, coordination with the City staff, responsible and interested agencies, project applicant, and local interest groups is critical. This coordination will be very important in identifying all issues, alternatives, and feasible mitigation measures early in the process. We are committed to working in a team effort with the City staff. We propose to prepare regular progress /status reports and to attend any necessary project team meetings during preparation of the Screencheck and Draft EIR. We intend to communicate with interested agencies in writing and, where appropriate and necessary, in person. Any unresolved issues communicated by agencies in response to the Notice of Preparation will be immediately followed up and resolved. ATTENDANCE AT MEETINGS AND HEARINGS Ms. Annette Sanchez, Project Manager, will attend two public hearings (City Council and Planning Commission). Where appropriate, Mr. Fred Talarico and /or support staff members and technical subconsultants will also attend.

This proposal is based upon infor- mation provided by the City and our understanding of the needs of the study. In general, the work would consist of analyzing the circulation and parking factors as required for inclusion in a focused EIR for the project. Existing conditions, previous studies and other data would be reviewed to provide a basis for the study. Analyses would be completed to identify potential impacts and develop recommendations for mitigation. We would coordinate our work with you and other members of the EIR consultant team. A report would be prepared sum- marizing our finding and recommendations. We would envision the following specific tasks to be required for this study. 'ASK 1 - DATA COLLECTION We would assemble all available data pertinent to the study. This would include previous studies, widening proposals, right -of =way map, existing and projected traffic volumes, City Land Use and Circulation plans and similar data. We would meet with City Staff to review the study and obtain data. A field review would be made to familiarize ourselves with existing conditions in the study area. It is not anticipated that field data col- lection, such as traffic counts and parking inventories, would be required. TASK 2 - CIRCULATION AND ANALYSIS Based upon available data, existing traffic conditions would be quantified. It is anticipated that volume /capacity comparisons could be utilized to 2651 EAST CHAPMAN AVENUE • SUITE 110 • FULLERTON, CALIFORNIA 92631 • (714) 871 -2931 J -2- determine current Levels of Service. Future conditions would also be evaluated utilizing projected traffic volumes and similar methodologies. Consideration would also be given to potential diversion of traffic to parallel routes due to lack of capacity on Monterey Street. Construction impacts, bicycle and pedestrian traffic and other related factors would also be reviewed. Potential problem areas would be identified and miti- gation measures recommended as may be required. TASK 3 - PARKING ANALYSIS Parking demands and supplies would be reviewed from available data. Poten- tial impacts of the loss of parking due to the street widening program would be identified. Methods of mitigating these parking impacts would be reviewed on both an interim and long term basis. Potential interim mitigation would be joint use of off - street areas, use of side streets, temporary off - street parking on vacant parcels and other methods. Long term mitigation considerations would include off- street parking require- ments, potential joint use facilities, off - street parking district and similar methods. TASK 4 - REPORT AND MEETINGS A report would be prepared summarizing our findings and recommendations. The report would contain the required supportive data and be suitable for inclusion in the EIR. We would meet with City Staff and others to initiate the study. Attendance at one (1) public hearing is also included as a part of this proposal. We would be prepared to begin work on this study upon receipt of authorization. It is anticipated that approximately four (4) weeks would be required to complete the study. Our fee for the work outlined in this proposal shall be based upon personnel charges plus direct expenses as indicated in our Standard Rate Schedule, a copy of which is attached and made a part hereto.

The analysis will determine the existing noise environment through a noise measurement and modeling survey, assess the ultimate noise levels for the proposed project and determine any mitigation necessary to comply with applicable noise standards. Based upon the RFP for the project, we have proposed the following Scope of Work. TASK 1 - DEFINE EXISTING NOISE ENVIRONMENT. The existing noise ' environment will be described through a comprehensive noise measurement survey and computer modeling assessment of existing roadway noise sources. Noise measurements will be made at a representative number of sites along ' the project corridor. Six measurement sites will be included as part of this noise survey. The measurement results will be used to validate the highway noise model as well as to determine the existing ambient noise levels. ' Based upon the noise measurement survey and the existing traffic data, the roadway noise levels will be determined. The traffic noise levels will be computed using the Highway Noise Model published by the Federal Highway ' Administration ( "FHWA Highway Traffic Noise Prediction Model," FEWA -RD-77 -108, December, 1978) with the recently released CALVENO vehicle noise emission curves developed by Caltrans. The FHWA Model uses traffic ' volume, vehicle mix, traffic distribution, truck percentages, vehicle speed, and roadway geometry to compute the noise levels. The noise levels will be determined in terms of local (CNEL) noise criteria. CNEL is t specified by the City of San Luis Obispo and the State of California for noise compatibility assessment. ' TASK 2 - DETERMINE CONSTRUCTION NOISE IMPACTS. Short term noise impacts such as those associated with roadway construction will be described based on the type of equipment that will be used for the roadway construction. 1 280 Newport Center Drive, Suite 230 • Newport Beach, California 92660 • (714) 760 -0891 ' Hours of construction and the estimated construction duration will be presented. 1 TASK 3 - DETERMINE FUTURE NOISE LEVELS. The future noise exposure along the project corridor will be developed and compared with respect to 1 existing noise levels. The mitigating effect of existing noise barriers that will not be removed will be determined and included in the noise level projections. The noise levels will be determined in terms of the CNEL criterion. TASK 4 — DETERMINE AREAS REQUIRING MITIGATION. The-contour values determined in the previous task will be overlayed on the land use plans to determine areas that may require mitigation.. The number and types of land uses that may require mitigation in order to comply with the noise standards will be determined. TASK 5 - DEVELOP PRELIMINARY MITIGATION MEASURES. Mitigation through the design and construction of a noise barrier (wall, berm, or combination ' wall /berm) is the most effective way of alleviating traffic noise impacts. Areas along the project site will be identified for which a noise barrier would be required to comply with the CNEL noise standards. General height requirements for such barriers will be identified based on preliminary 1 estimates of wall design. Detailed noise barrier analyses will not be done as part of this environmental work (noise barrier design should be done as part of the design study). 1 We propose to do this study on a time and materials basis at a cost not to . exceed 3500 dollars. This cost includes all manpower, computer, and overhead expenses associated with completing this project. Thank you.for the opportunity to bid on this proposal. If you have any questions concerning this proposal or our capabilities, please do not hesitate to call. 1 Yours Very Truly, ' MESTRE GREVE ASSOCIATES Paul H. Dunholter, P.E. Principal 1 MESTRE GREVE ASSOCIATES - CAPABILITIFS NOISE CONTROL ENGINEERING Noise, commonly defined as "unwanted sound," is a by- product of civilizations increasing use of machines. Noise levels in an industrial setting can impede worker performance and even cause physiological damage. 1 Community noise levels are generally much lower than those in an industrial environment. However, noise from aircraft, trains and motor vehicles can interfer with our sleep, speech communication, and be very annoying. Guidelines, regulations, and laws have been developed which attempt to bring about acceptable noise levels both in the workplace and the community. Noise Control Engineering is the determination of existing or future noise levels, and the development of solutions that will result in an acceptable noise environment. The Noise Control Engineering services that are provided by MESTRE GREVE ASSOCIATES may be divided into the following categories; (1) community noise studies, (2) industrial noise assessment and control, and (3) vibration and dynamic analysis. All noise control studies involve analyzing or projecting the noise levels generated by a source, determining, the level of reduction desired, and finally engineering a solution to achieve the criterion levels. The Noise Control Engineering Services provided by our firm are utilized by variety of clients in both the private and public sectors. Capabilities in Noise Control Engineering include: Assessment of Aircraft, Railroad and Highway Noise ' Noise Assessments for Environmental Documentation (EIR's, EIS's, etc.) Development of General Plan Noise Elements Noise Barrier Design ' Architectural Acoustics Design Analysis of Industrial Plant Noise OSHA Surveys ' Vibration and Dynamic Analysis COMMUNITY NOISE STUDIES Community Noise Studies encompass a wide range of development and planning studies. Included in this category are the development of General Plan Noise Elements, noise studies for residential and commercial projects, 1 and highway noise analysis. • The development of General Plan Noise Elements demands that a firm can assess a variety of community noise.sources, integrate noise control plans _ into the planning process, and possess knowledge of local government structure and processing requirements. Community noise sources may include 'traffic, aircraft, train, industrial and commercial noise sources. Noise ' levels for all types of noise impacting a community can be defined'with the firm's measurement equipment and technical expertise. Data from the noise surveys may be used directly or to "fine tune" appropriate models for increased accuracy in predicting future community noise exposure. Aircraft noise levels are, perhaps, the most difficult to predict accurately. Airport 1 1 1 D modeling is a speciality of our firm, and for municipalities impacted by aircraft noise the use of our firm my be especially beneficial. Development of noise contour maps is facilitated by our in house computing system. Noise ordinances, policies, standards, and implementation procedures can also be developed by our firm that will suited to a particular community and are workable. 1 Noise studies are performed for all types of development projects at all levels of planning. Foise studies performed by MF.STRE GRFVE ASSOCIATES range from assessments for zone changes or general plan amendments to final noise barrier design studies. In particular, compliance with General Plan and Noise Element requirements, federal requirements, building, code requirements, and specific conditions of approval are commonly dealt with in the firms work. Additionally, in areas of high exterior noise, special analyses of the interior noise environment are commonly conducted. (Our capabilities in Architectural. Acoustics are described in a separate section.) The highway noise capabilities of MF.STRE GRFVE ASSOCIATES can be utilized for highway projects .involving new construction, existing roadway improvements, or for analyzing the impacts of roadways on adjacent land uses. Studies have included federally funded projects that must conform with both local standards as well as federal noise standards and requirements (Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) PPM 773). Comparison of impacts for various transportation alternatives including highways, busways, light rail transit, and other mass transit alternatives can be assessed. Since our firm also provides air quality assessment services, the noise assessment can be "piggy- backed" with the air quality study at a considerable cost savings. The highway noise models used by MESTRE GREVE ASSOCIATES are based on t the Federal Highway Administrations. Highway Traffic Noise Model. This basic model has been programmed for use on our in house computing facility. Several versions of the model have been written to accommodate various application requirements. The capabilities of the model include Leq and L10 computation as given by the original FAWA methodology. In addition, the MESTRE GREVE ASSOCIATES version of the model includes computation of CNEL, Ldn, and Leq(24). An extremely useful version of the model has been developed by the firm and includes complete noise barrier calculation options. The barrier design program can calculate the noise reduction for a given barrier height, or it can determine the required barrier height for any roadway* geometry to meet a design noise level. Models with similar capabilities for the prediction and barrier design of railroad noise have been developed by our firm and are also employed on our in house computing facility* A noise measurement survey is used for increasing the accuracy and confidence level of a noise study, validate noise.input data or to validate a ' noise model to the conditions and characteristics specific to the situation being analyzed. In house noise measurement instrumentation includes'computer automated 24 hour measurements and single event calculations. For ' transportation noise measurements the consultant team utilizes its Digital Acoustics Model 607 or BBN Model 614 Portable Noise Monitor System. These instruments .calculate single event, Leq for any time period, and 24 hour noise - levels. Their automatic calculations reduce the time required for data reduction. ' The work experience in Community Noise of MF.STRE GREVE ASSOCIATES is extensive. Over 300 studies have been completed by our.firm in this area, and range from barrier analysis for housing tracts and expressways to the development of noise models and General Plan Noise Elements. The principals of the .firm have published papers on various aspects of Community Noise and provide lectures at the college level on this topic. Clients for these services are both from the public and private sector. AIRPORT AND HELIPORT STUDIES MESTRE GREVE ASSOCIATES has participated in a large variety of projects which utilize the firms's airport consulting capabilities. The firm has been actively involved in the Federal Aviation Administration's (FAA) FAR Part 150 ' program as established by the Aviation Safety and Noise Abatement Act of 1979 (P.L. 96 -193, 49 USC 2101). Additional aviation services include: Air Installation Compatibility Use Zone (AICUZ) established by the Military; design and development of noise monitoring systems for airports and various '. areas of airport environmental documentation and planning. In the Part 150 programs, noise studies at airports have stressed noise and land -use ' compatibility through combined land -use control programs and airport noise reduction programs. In these programs a large variety of noise abatement procedures and land -use control combinations have been evaluated with the FAA, and local planning agencies to establish a plan which will ensure future ' compatibility of the airport with the surrounding land uses. An integral part of the engineering services provided by MESTRE GREVE ASSOCIATES involves providing technical resources for the analysis of airport noise and land use conflicts. The services are intended to provide, as an. end result, an accurate, comprehensive and complete analysis with which 1 objective planning, "design and operational decisions can be rendered. The utilization of MESTRE GREVE ASSOCIATES' services by a variety of governmental planning agencies, private developers, private planning organizations, and airport proprietors demonstrates the firm's understanding of the problems facing airports and communities that surround them. Capabilities in airport analysis include: Noise Contour Modeling r Noise Measurement Programs Noise Measurement Instrumentation Systems and Design Computerized Land Use Mapping Air Quality Modeling Accident Potential Zone Analysis Height Restriction Analysis Evaluation of Airport Alternatives, Mitigation and Abatement Procedures To facilitate assessment of noise impacts,.the firm has developed land ' use mapping capabilities specifically designed for airport analysis. Comparative analysis of land use impacts that encompasses the same geographic area can be a difficult and time consuming task, particularly when the data 1 0 O information (e.g.; land use categories, population) that can be incorporated into permanent noise monitoring systems and noise control programs. Airport consulting projects completed by the firm have included a number of sensitive and complex studies including Part 150 studies for Santa mica Airport in California and Jackson Hole Airport in Wyoming. The staff of MESTRE GREVE ASSOCIATES has over ten years of experience in airport analyses which includes work at over 50 airports and airport sites. Our experience with airport planning combined with the technical capabilities of the firm, form a strong foundation that is ideally suited to develop policies to minimize noise and land use conflicts around airports. INDUSTRIAL NOISE ASSESSMENT AND CONTROL The capabilities of MESTRE GRFVE ASSOCIATES in Industrial Noise Assessment and Control may be divided into three areas; (1) OSHA Surveys, (2) a Noise Ordinance compliance testing, and (3) industrial noise control engineering. MESTRE GREVE ASSOCIATES maintains certified noise equipment to conduct testing to determine worker noise exposure per OSHA regulations. Similarly the firm possesses the necessary equipment and expertise-to conduct compliance testing with Noise Ordinances, or other noise constraints. If a problem is identified either with compliance with the OSHA regulations or a Noise Ordinance, our firm can engineer control or protection solutions. a Control of the noise generator, isolation of the noise source, or protection of the impacted individual or areas can be assessed in detail by our firm, and the best set of options identified. 0 VIBRATION AND DYNAMIC ANALYSIS Vibration and dynamic analysis can be performed by MESTRE GREVE rri ASSOCIATES for a variety of situations. Our firm can analyze the vibration in communities along subways and railways. Equipment vibration and control is also an area of expertise of our firm. The firm has experience in the design and testing of ultrasonic equipment, specifically in the development of an asphalt cutter utilizing, a cutting blade vibrating at a high frequency. �I J n is detailed and the analysis requirements are complex. The ability to translate mapped geographic information into a form usable by computers has opened the door to automated geographic analysis. Having land use maps available in machine readable form allows the ability to take advantage of the accuracy and high speed data manipulation capabilities of the computer. The system can contain a substantial quantity of various mapped geographic O information (e.g.; land use categories, population) that can be incorporated into permanent noise monitoring systems and noise control programs. Airport consulting projects completed by the firm have included a number of sensitive and complex studies including Part 150 studies for Santa mica Airport in California and Jackson Hole Airport in Wyoming.
