Project Team Firm’s Experience/ References section 2 IMEG | City of Diamond Bar | Professional On-Call Civil Engineering and Architectural Services 12 City of Diamond Bar Sycamore Canyon Park Trail Diamond Bar, CA SLOPE REPAIR IMEG’s civil engineering expertise was instrumental in a $1.2 million repair of the Sycamore Canyon Park Trail, a 2.7-mile hiking loop near Diamond Bar, CA. Major winter storms in January 2017 had rendered access unsafe, forcing the trail to close due to substantial erosion and slope failure at the upper drainage terrace of the trail system, undermining two of the four tiers of stairway leading to the trail. This was the third slope failure since the inception of the site slope and drainage system in 1984. IMEG’s civil engineers were tasked with determining the best course of action to prevent a similar event from happening again. IMEG provided an existing topographic survey, hydrology and hydraulic analysis of the existing and proposed conditions, along with site design, assistance with FEMA funding, and construction administration services. The proposed slope repair included reinforcement to the 1-1/2 to 1 (horizontal to vertical) fill slope with geogrid layers. The proposed storm drain system included modifications to the existing terrace drains and terrace storm drain inlets to provide sufficient capacity to effectively intercept storm water flow and convey it safely into the existing storm drain system. The proposed storm drainage system also included essential emergency overflow down drains, should the storm drain inlet(s) fail due to lack of maintenance or other unforeseen situations. A block interception wall directs the flow down a drain system that ultimately delivers it to the upper terrace and upper terrace drains. After a delay due to FEMA approval, construction began in the spring of 2019 and completed with a ribbon-cutting ceremony reopening the trailhead Nov. 5, 2019.

Firm’s Experience/References IMEG | City of Diamond Bar | Professional On-Call Civil Engineering and Architectural Services 13 NEW POCKET PARK AND STORM WATER IMPROVEMENTS IMEG provided full engineering services for Los Angeles County Department of Parks and Recreation and the Department of Public works for the construction of a new 0.5 acre pocket park in the unincorporated community of Walnut Park. The amenities and features of the park include a staff office and public restroom building, drought tolerant plants, walking paths and benches, fitness stations, shade shelter, public restrooms, playground areas, performance stage, splash pad, picnic areas, and an open lawn area. In addition, IMEG provided civil engineering services for the design of stormwater diversion system to capture stormwater from a 27-acre drainage area. The system is designed to improve water quality for the Los Angeles River watershed and assist in compliance towards MS4 Permit requirements. This was achieved by implementing nine drywells (six within the park site and three on the adjacent public street) that are fed by a new public storm drain system, which include: • Two curb opening catch basins on Pacific Blvd. • A hydrodynamic separator • Stormwater quality monitoring system • Underground storm drain pipes The project was funded by a joint agreement with Public Works and Parks and Recreation using dedicated state and regional funds. Challenges encountered included dealing with unforeseen constraints with existing features of neighboring properties for construction of the perimeter screen wall and existing utility conflicts for the construction of the public storm drain system. These problems were solved by collaborative effort with IMEG, architect, and the County on reaching an acceptable resolution with the least impact to cost and construction schedule. IMEG’s civil team played a vital role in ensuring the County’s needs were met by coordinating critical design elements and issues with the rest of the design team and staying on track with deadlines. IMEG also worked with the architect, landscape architect, and Parks and Recreation in the design based on direct feedback from local community outreach.

This master plan was developed to accommodate growth and shifting population patterns identified by the City. The existing eight-inch Vitrified Clay Pipe (VCP) sewer line is located in the western-most southbound lane of Brookhurst Street, south of Ball Road. The IMEG team reviewed the plan including all supporting materials, input current flow conditions, evaluation of size and recommendations based on the findings. To provide more accurate results, we proposed installing a meter on the line to calibrate the flow. Adjacent to the entire length of this project is a gas main. The project site included a 12 and 16-inch adjacent water mains and buried television cables. This system fronts a strip mall, gas station/minimart, night club, auto dealership, and a school. There are four manholes in this 960-ft long run; • Entrance to the strip mall • Entrance of the auto dealership • In front of the school • In front of the night club The system connects with the 30-inch pipe in Ball Road through an eight-inch siphon. Findings from the CCTV indicated that the entire length did not need to be replaced from a standpoint of physical conditions only. Once we calibrated the pipeline and modeled the hydraulics of flows, we concluded that only the upper two sections of pipe would need to be replaced. This would save the City approximately half of proposed $500K construction budget.

Our team provided project management, design, bidding assistance, and construction administration for the project, along with surveying and resident inspection services through construction. IMEG prepared all of the contract documents, which included the Construction Safety Phasing Plan (CSPP), Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP), contract drawings and specifications, and contract provisions for the project. The primary focus of the rehabilitation and routine maintenance project was to ensure safety and maintain the integrity of the existing pavements. The project was funded through the FAA’s Airport Improvement Program and completed in full compliance with FAA design standards. Engineering, bidding, and construction were completed in conformance to CALTRANs and federal contract requirements.

Firm’s Experience/References IMEG | City of Diamond Bar | Professional On-Call Civil Engineering and Architectural Services 16 Pico Rivera is completing the process of updating the master plans, including the Water Master Plan, Wastewater Collection Master Plan and the Storm Drain Master Plan. The City entered into a contract to develop these updates, as well as the City’s Urban Water Management Plan. The Water Master Plan includes the update to the existing GIS system, development of a hydraulic model, and site inspections for the water treatment plants and pumps. The plan also evaluated the current population projection, water demand estimates and water supply availability. The conclusion of the plan will include an evaluation of the City’s Budget and development of a CIP. The Wastewater Collection Master Plan is similar to the Water Master Plan, but the available data is somewhat limited. The original master plan’s hydraulic model is not available, nor is the GIS. IMEG is building the GIS from information provided from LA County, to be incorporated into a new hydraulic model. This hydraulic model was used in combination with the meters installed within the system to determine what areas within the system witnesses inflow and infiltration issues. The Storm Drain Master Plan is a new master plan. The original evaluation of the storm drain system was developed in the 1960’s. IMEG is developing a new GIS system using as-builts and available documentation, which will then be incorporated into a hydraulic model. This hydraulic model was, then, used to in combination with the hydrology model to evaluate the current capacity of the system. The GIS database developed from these three master plans will be used in the field using City-provided toughbooks, allowing staff immediate access to the systems. All three of the Master Plans involved the development of hydraulic models. The Water Master Plan used the City’s GIS system to develop an InfoWater model. Both the Wastewater Collection and the Storm Drain Master Plans utilized InfoSWMM. The sewer system had to be developed using strictly as-built information, since a GIS was not available. This effort resulted in having negative slopes within the model. To resolve this, IMEG provided field survey to more accurately determine the correct slopes.Services included assisting the City in updating their Emergency Response Plan with specific and outlined responses for a variety of situations to protect their staff and provide a safer and more secure work environment. A Risk and Resilience Assessment was completed finding and addressing numerous gaps in their physical, material, IT, and employee security.

Firm’s Experience/References Project Understandingsection 3 IMEG | City of Diamond Bar | Professional On-Call Civil Engineering and Architectural Services 18 3. Project Understanding IMEG has reviewed the scope of services outlined in the Request for Qualifications (RFQ) and understands that the City of Diamond Bar is soliciting services for On-Call Professional Engineering Services. IMEG will perform the scope of services described in the RFP and understands that services will vary and be based on a task order basis at the discretion of the City. We understand that each project presents a unique set of challenges that demands the attention of the design team to develop innovative solutions to meet the project objectives. We are submitting qualifications for: • Civil Engineering Design We have reviewed our current workload and can assure the City of Diamond Bar of our availability and our commitment to serve public sector clients. We have the manpower to commit to begin working on projects to the City immediately upon award. IMEG engineering professionals assigned are prepared to fully commit the time and resources deemed necessary for the successful completion of our services. The commitment of assigned staff for this project will not adversely impact existing client commitments. Our assigned staff for this project will be committed to the project(s) through its successful completion. We strongly commit ourselves to all segments of the project within the timeframe identified in the RFP. IMEG’s large multi-disciplinary staff of over 250+ professionals (California) is a substantial resource pool. As a national firm of 2,400 employees, we have the resources to augment staff if and when necessary to accommodate any schedule adjustments. The size of our staff allows us to dedicate the exact resources required to deliver to the desired end product within established timeframes. Team members are chosen based on both availability and experience with the project scope. Our proposed team consists of staff from our local offices to ensure local knowledge and experience –with a deep bench of additional resources. It is our mission to provide high quality consulting engineering services to our clients. Our team is highly quali fied with many years of experience in engineering, analysis, design, review and construction projects. Every team member firmly embraces a philosophy that identifies the client’s project needs from concept to design and through completion of construction. It is our standard practice that no team members will be replaced for the duration of a project without prior approval of the City. As your engineer and partner, we are there with you when the concept design begins, we align the design intent to your goals, we serve as your partner throughout the construction process, and then see that the initial goals are achieved in actual operation. At the beginning of each project, we review current workload. We prepare an estimate of man-hours for each phase of the project. Hours are based on individual tasks and by personnel required, i.e. principals, engineers, design technicians, CAD technicians, and specification coordinators. Schedule of estimated man-hours is coordinated with our rolling four-month database of assignments. With this approach, there is no fragmentation or hand-off, we take you through the entire process from start to finish. The following are the areas that we are proposing to provide the City of Diamond Bar assistance with: Engineering Design and Construction will include, but not be limited to assist with the following; provide hydrology and hydraulic/ drainage reports, models, and studies, prepare plans, specifications, engineering design calculations, and cost estimates, coordinate design and construction activities with City departments, other agencies, citizens, and regulatory agencies, manage a variety of challenging multidisciplinary projects from budget inception through construction, ensure delivery of projects within schedule and budget, obtain easements provide public outreach coordination and exhibits, provide utility coordination and notifications for a variety of projects. Administration/Miscellaneous Provide assistance to the City with the following; coordinate with other agencies, the public, and utility companies on engineering matters, prepare CAD exhibits, public outreach material, complex Microsoft Excel spreadsheets, Microsoft Word documents, PowerPoint presentations, as directed, for a variety of Engineering and Public Works topics, provide other engineering support services, as needed. IMEG | City of Diamond Bar | Professional On-Call Civil Engineering and Architectural Services 19 3. Project Understanding IMEG, through our long history of providing on-call engineering services, understands that your City staff expects the following from your consultants: 1. Technical expertise to provide accurate and reliable products 2. Cost efficiency 3. Local staff for both timely responses and maintenance of relationships Our promise to you is to provide this level of service with every task order. IMEG presents the following tasks for consideration: TASK 1: PROJECT MANAGEMENT Our constant philosophy is to be a customer-centric organization. In today’s environment, we believe it is essential to ensure we deliver real value to our clients. We are able to do so by establishing processes from years of experience. Ensuring we have the right team members focused on taking the right steps in an efficient manner saves time and money and solves problems for our clients before they move to the next step. IMEG sees the value in these methodologies both internally and for our clients and suppliers. We employ specific methods to manage projects and develop design, starting at the earliest planning and programming phases and continuing through the CD phase. Successfully developing a design starts with: • Understanding the client’s needs • Providing leadership and key personnel to aid the client in determining solutions that are uniquely right for them and the needs of the project • Identify and mitigate risk It is essential to meet with the City to present/discuss/expand the team’s ideas. We fully explain each design strategy/alternative. We like to leave this initial meeting with a narrowed list of strategies which will then require further analysis. The design process is taking a collection of ideas and making it reality. Project Management is far more than tracking schedules, verifying budgets and maintaining quality. While these items are indeed vital to the success of each task order, we’ve take project management a step further by developing a work plan. The work plan may be simple or complex; they are used by our project managers to both track the task and communicate the project’s progress to you, our client. Communication is essential with every project. Through it, we can adjust our team’s approach as needed throughout the project rather than only at design completion meetings. Even so, it begins with our meetings during which data will be exchanged so all of our team members – the City staff, IMEG staff and sub-consulting staff – are fully versed in the progress and have a unified effort moving forward. These meetings will be as follows: MEETINGS Kick-off: Will entail establishing the communications protocol of the project, individual team members, attainment of initial data, establishment of project expectations, and potentially, walking the project site. Progress Meetings: These meeting would happen through various forms. This typically involves telephone calls, impromptu office meetings, emails or even texts. There could be more in person meetings, however, if in person meetings are not forseeable, the meetings can be conducted through a web meeting software such as Zoom or Microsoft Teams. We fully believe that face-to- face meetings provide the best interaction and, ultimately, the best result, but these meetings are not always possible. IMEG is prepared to establish an on-site meeting system suitable for the City as well as any of your other interested parties. We insist on making sure you are aware of the progress within the project. These meetings will be held regularly to discuss the progress of the task order. Workshops: While not every task order will require workshops, IMEG offers these meetings to discuss the details of the design to date and determine modifications needed in future and final submittals. IMEG | City of Diamond Bar | Professional On-Call Civil Engineering and Architectural Services 20 TASK 2: DESIGN REPORTS Requirements for design reports can vary, depending upon the type of task being performed. For example, a master plan report demands different content than does a model evaluation. A lift station would have different requirements than a wastewater treatment plant improvement. On top of that, the permitting requirements would increase the variety required. Therefore, IMEG will work with you, through each task order and with each permitting agency to determine the format and content required for each. Our typical design report includes the following: 1. Project Background 2. References and Regulations 3. Study Results a. Existing System b. Problem Statement 4. Alternative Discussions (Conceptual Design) 5. Alternative Opinion of Probable Construction Costs 6. Recommendation. While the outline presented was designed to provide you the information necessary to make decisions, some alternative requirements could be required. Such additional requirements often involve describing the City’s current financial plans and capabilities and how the City will fund such a project. IMEG will consider each regulatory requirement and provide you with the design report that meets these and your needs. TASK 3: DETAILED DESIGN AND CONSTRUCTION DOCUMENTS Based on the City’s various submittal guidelines, this task involves the development of a Preliminary Design (60% Submittal) and a Final Design (90% Submittal). IMEG will develop the plans, specifications, and if necessary, right-of-way maps and legal descriptions. For the Preliminary Design, IMEG will provide the process design as well as base maps, survey data, site layouts and initial infrastructure design. However, we insist on providing preliminary structural calculations and drawings, preliminary electrical designs, and instrumentation and controls schematics. This information must be provided early in the process to allow efficiency and eliminate as many delays and changes as possible. Depending upon the task order, IMEG may request a workshop after the preliminary design is completed to discuss the design progress. During such a meeting, IMEG and the City would discuss concerns with the design, various solutions and the best alternative for the City. These meetings are intended to maintain a teaming relationship so this becomes a product of good communication and a combined knowledge-base. During this meeting, IMEG will develop a matrix of the comments so that we can properly address each comment to the best interest of the project and the City. The success of the workshop and the project will guide the City staff and IMEG on such surveying needs as rights-of-way adjustments, real estate acquisition and exhibit development. This portion of the project could take a significant amount of time, depending upon the cooperation of landowners and other interested parties. After the preliminary design workshop, IMEG will endeavor to complete the design - to 90% completion. We will use the matrix developed in the workshop (or, if the project does not warrant a workshop, we will endeavor to meet independently and attain the needed information to develop such a matrix) to modify the design direction as needed and complete the bidding documents. At the conclusion of the 90% design, IMEG will meet with City staff, if necessary, to fully discuss the project, the plans, the technical specifications, and the front-end documents. Information exchanged in this meeting will, again, be collected and included in a matrix. This matrix will be used to push the design to 100-percent complete and to the satisfaction of the City. TASK 4: CONTRACTING ASSISTANCE Throughout the bidding phase of the project, IMEG will assist the City by interpreting the bid documents and will be available to both the City and to the potential bidders for consultation. With each consultation, IMEG will document the discussions held and submit those conversations to the City for distribution to the other potential bidders. Our intent is to extend our service of quality by assisting you in the selection of a respectable contractor. At the request of the City, IMEG is prepared to attend and assist in the bid opening process; we will provide a background review of the apparent low bidder and provide the City with a recommendation. We will also assist you in issuing a Notice-of-Award, executing the Contract, and issuing a Notice-to-Proceed. TASK 5: CONSTRUCTION PHASE SERVICES IMEG will provide shop drawing reviews as well as develop the record drawings, review the Contractor’s submittals, provide change order review, respond to Requests for Information (RFI), and provide any support efforts to provide construction drawing clarifications aimed to convey the intended design. To accomplish this, IMEG will provide engineering reviews during construction. This service not only provides IMEG with a constant knowledge of the project, it also helps the contractor with communication and review, ultimately giving the City a quality final product. 3.
