EXHIBIT A SCOPE OF SERVICES Project Description The City of San Leandro operates a sanitary sewer collection system and sewage treatment plant that serves the northern two thirds of the City. The collection system has over 120 miles of collection pipe in diameters from 4"to 42"and 13 lift stations. The system is mapped in Arc Gis software with attributes stored in an excel spreadsheet. The City also uses ICOM3 software to assist in management the collection system. When originally installed some portions of the collection system had separate parallel industrial and residential sewers, but all pipes are now used indiscriminately. The sanitary collection system does not intentionally collect storm water as the City has a separate storm water collection system, but a few storm water lines have been accidentally connected to the sanitary system. The sanitary collection system delivers sanitary sewage to the City's treatment plant at 3000 Davis Street with the exception of the sewage collected in the Valley area. The Valley area is an area roughly bounded by Interstate 880, Washington Avenue, and Fremont Avenue / Portola Drive within which the City owns and maintains the collection system but the sewage is delivered to Oro Loma Sanitary District for treatment. The majority of the effluent treated at 3000 Davis Street is piped to ultimate discharge by the East Bay Dischargers Authority(EBDA)but a small percentage is reclaimed by EBMUD or is used to water the municipal golf course. The City has a permit from the Regional Water Control Board that allows treatment of 7.6 mgd average dry weather flow, and 22.3 mgd design peak wet weather flow. Actual flows are typically between 4 and 5 mgd dry weather and up to 22.3 mgd wet weather. The plant is currently receiving significant improvements intended to improve treatment efficiency and restore capacity to the permitted level. This contract is for preparing a capacity study and master plan of the City's sanitary sewer collection system. RMC will prepare draft Technical Memorandum (TMs) at milestone points of the project as indicated in the task descriptions below. The purpose of the TMs will be to document and communicate work completed and present interim findings, results, and recommendations for the City's review. City's comments on the draft TMs will be incorporated into the Master Plan Report. Unless specifically noted, it is assumed that draft deliverables will be submitted electronically. The deliverable schedules indicated in the tasks below are based on receipt of Notice to Proceed by January 29,2013. Task 1 —Project Management and Coordination This task includes the following activities: • Progress Meetings. In addition to frequent contact via email and telephone, RMC will participate in periodic progress meetings with the City to discuss progress to date, findings, outstanding issues and next steps.At a minimum, progress meetings will be held with Citystaff following submittal of all draft deliverables to discuss the findings and any review comments. • Progress Reporting. RMC will prepare monthly progress reports to summarize project activities and budget/schedule status.
