Walter, Director of Public Works Prepared By: Daniel Van Beveren, Sem Civil Engineer-3�1� SUBJECT: MID HIGUERA WIDENING, SPECIFICATION NO. 90073B AMENDMENT#3 TO ENVIRONMENTAL SERVICES CONTRACT CAO RECOMMENDATION Approve and execute Amendment No. 3 to the Agreement to Furnish Environmental Services for the Mid-Higuera Widening Project, Specification No. 90073B, in the amount of: $32,935 with Morro Group, Inc. DISCUSSION The Mid Higuera Widening project involves the widening of Higuera Street from Marsh Street to High Street. Cal Trans is the agency in charge of processing the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) approval of this project, and in 2003, requested several technical reports necessary for this environmental clearance. The City then contracted with Morro Group, Inc., a local environmental consultant, to complete these technical reports. The current agreement with Monro Group consists of the original contract awarded by Council on November 5, 2003, with two amendments to the contract amendment which were approved in 2004 and 2005. All of the technical reports originally requested were completed and submitted to Cal Trans for approval in 2005. All of these reports have now been approved with the exception of the Archaeological Survey Report. The Archaeological Survey Report submitted in 2005 included a general overview of the entire project location and identified the potential for archaeological artifacts or other similar items to be present within the area of potential disturbance for the proposed street widening. This potential presence of artifacts was specifically identified for two properties which are located at 292 and 296 Higuera. Both of these two properties currently contain older, craftsman style homes and have the same owner. Based on the conclusions of the 2005 Archaeological Survey Report, the City was required to perform a follow up study known as an Extended Phase I Archaeological Survey. The scope of that report was approved by CalTrans and included the excavation of several "test pits" located within City Right-of-Way immediately adjacent to the two properties located at 292 and 296 Higuera. The review of that report by CalTrans has now resulted in the need to perform yet another follow up study also known as an Extended Phase I Archaeological Survey. This study will also include several "test pits", but the area of testing will be on the private property at 292 and 296 Higuera. Because this area of proposed testing is located on private property, the City was required to get the authorization of the property owner in order to perform the testing. This permission has now been granted and is in the form of a Right of Entry agreement between the City and the property c y-i O Council Agenda Report—Mid 13iguera Environmental Services—Contract Amendment#3 Page 2 owner. With this agreement now in place, we can proceed with the on-site work. Morro Group has submitted a proposal to perform the Extended Phase I Archaeological Survey at a cost of $32,935. FISCAL IMPACT There is $300,000 budgeted for the environmental review phase of this project. Of that amount, $144,500 is still available. This amendment would increase Morro Group's contract amount by $32,935 for a total contract value of$162,317.

This site was identified during the cultural resources inventory of the Mid-Higuera Street Widening project in 2004. The purpose of the survey will be to delineate the boundaries of the site so a determination can be made if the proposed project would impact the resource. The budget given to Morro Group by GANDA to complete the work effort is attached. GANDA is requesting an additional time and materials budget not to exceed $32,935 for this work effort. The Extended Phase 1 survey proposal currently is being reviewed by Kelda Wilson of Caltrans. Once she has approved the proposal, GANDA can proceed with the survey. The survey includes up to twenty (20) shovel test pits (STPs). They will only charge for the STPs that are necessary to delineate the boundaries of CA-SLO-2423. This.request will be third amendment request to the original contract. Currently, Morro Group has about $34,000 left in our budget for the project. This amount is being reserved to complete any changes requested by Caltrans on any of the reports submitted for the project, the completion of the ASR and HPSR, CEQA determination, attendance at public hearings on the project, and printing. Please feel free to call me if you have any questions regarding the request for additional funds. Sincerely, Mom GRour,Ixc. Mary B.
