SUBJECT: Consideration of a Construction Contract, a Personal Services Agreement
and a License Agreement for the Northwest Open Space Phase 1 -
Sanitary Sewer Improvements Project (Boudreau Pipeline Corporation)
(McKeehan Environmental Consultants) (Moulton Niguel Water District)
(CIP 09209)
RECOMMENDATION:
By motion:
1. Approve a Construction Contract with Boudreau Pipeline Corporation for the
Northwest Open Space Phase 1 -Sanitary Sewer Improvements in the amount
of $170,200; and,
2. Approve a Personal Services Agreement with McKeehan Environmental
Consultants in the amount of $8,935; and,
3. Approve the draft License Agreement for connection between Moulton Niguel
Water District and the City of San Juan Capistrano and authorize the Mayor to
sign the final version of the License Agreement if it is substantially in
conformance with the draft document included as Attachment 3.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
Capital Improvement Project (CIP) 09209 includes construction of a sewer collection
pipeline that will collect flows from the future Northwest Open Space Park restrooms.
An added benefit of this line is that it will also collect flows from the historical Swanner
House, which is part of the Northwest Open Space, and eliminate the need for an on-
site septic system. California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) documentation for the
sewer line was prepared by Keeton Kreitzer Consulting, and the plans and
specifications were prepared by RCE Consultants Inc. The CEQA document (Initial
Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration) was approved and authorization to bid was
granted by the City Council on August 19, 2014. The City filed a Notice of
Determination with the County Clerk on August 26, 2014, in accordance with Public
Resources Code Sections 21108 and 21152, and no comments were received. Six (6)
bids were solicited and four (4) bids were received by the City on October 13, 2014.
City Council Agenda Report
December 2, 2014
Pa e 2 of 3
Construction of the Northwest Open Space Park Phase 1 -Sanitary Sewer
Improvements Project will require Archeological/Paleontological and Native American
monitoring, therefore a new Personal Services Agreement is necessary. Finally, a
License Agreement for sewer connection to the Moulton Niguel Water District trunk
sewer facility is required, as these agreements are customary for interconnection
between neighboring agencies.
DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS:
The City received bids for construction of the Northwest Open Space Sanitary Sewer
Improvements Phase 1 Project on October 13, 2014, and the results are tabulated as
follows:
.-CONTRACTOR BID AMOUNT ___j
Boudreau Pipeline Corporation $ 148,ooo 1
. Charles Kil'1_lLfompan1' $ 152,040 I ·-·-----------I Paulus Engineering Inc. -. $ 165,360 i
I WA Rasic Construgtion .. $ 309,580]
Staff has reviewed the bids and found them all to be responsive to the City's needs.
Staff recommends approval of a Construction Contract with Boudreau Pipeline
Corporation, inclusive of a 15% contingency to handle unforeseen conditions, in the
amount of $170,200 (Attachment 1).
Due to the environmental sensitivity of the project site, archeological/paleontological
and Native American monitoring is required during construction in compliance with the
project's CEQA document. Staff solicited 3 bids for these services and the results are
tabulated as follows:
CQN"Cf3.f'I-C=cT'='O::_:_R:___--;--;--;;;------c I BID AMOUNT
McKeehan Environmental Com;u::.:lt::.::a::.:.n:.:.ts=-----j_

,1'--------------------:$:-:c-8'C:, 9--::3--::5-1
Scientific Resource Survel's, Inc. _ $ 9,990
Greenwood and Associates $ 11 ,944 ~~------L
All of the proposals submitted provide the professional resources necessary to meet the
requirements set forth in the CEQA document. Therefore staff recommends approval of
a Personal Services Agreement with McKeehan Environmental Consultants in the
amount of $8,935 (Attachment 2).
The eight (8) inch sewer line constructed under this project will drain to a 33 inch trunk
sewer line owned and operated by Moulton Niguel Water District (MNWD). Staff has
been working with MNWD to develop a License Agreement for the connection. Staff
recommends approval of the draft agreement, and also recommends authorization for
the Mayor to sign the final agreement, provided that it is in substantial conformance with
the attached draft agreement (Attachment 3).
FISCAL IMPACT:
Direct expenditures for this project, together with a 15% contingency for unforeseen
conditions total $226,800. CIP 09209 has a remaining budget of $2,390,355.
Therefore, no additional budget appropriations are necessary at this time.

determination of appropriate treatment shall follow the steps outlined in City Policy 601.
Archaeological monitoring will be supervised by qualified archeologist, judy McKeehan, who has
25 years of experience in the City of San juan Capistrano. She is the authorized archaeologist for
Mission San juan Capistrano, the San juan Capistrano Historical Society, and the San juan

MCKEEHAN ENVIRONMENTAL CONSULTANTS PROPOSAL Exhibit A
Mcl<eehan Environmental Consultants
The archaeologist will be in attendance at the preconstruction meeting to explain the cultural
resources sensitivity of the project site and the methods and procedures that will be utilized to
protect them during construction.
Task 2. Cultural Resources Monitoring
The arcbaeological, paleontological, and Native American monitors will be required to follow all
written and verbal safety instructions from the construction contractor at all times. The monitor will
work closely with the City and its contractor to avoid imminent destruction of potentially significant
resources, if necessary.
Tasks will include:
• Observing activities with respect to permit requirements and mitigation measures;
• Documenting and reporting on field observations of activities carried out, construction
and mitigation techniques, success of the techniques, and recommendations for solutions
to problems encountered.
Task 2. Cultural Resources Technical Reports
A Negative Cultural Resources Report will be written following Office of Historic Preservation
format and content guidelines, which provides the results of monitoring. The report will also
present recommendations for further work, if needed, to evaluate any cultural resources that may
have been identified. One draft of this report and figures will be submitted electronically for
review. Upon receipt of comments on the draft document, MEC will incorporate input and
produce the final report. MEC assumes that only one round of review will be necessary. One
hardcopy and one electronic copy of the finalreport will be produced.
A negative final archaeological report will be provided to the City and to the South Central Coastal
Information Center (SCIC) at Cal State Fullerton as required by law the negative paleontological
report will be provided to the Cooper Center, the Orange County Paleontological Facility at CSU
Fullterton, and to the Los Angeles County Natural History Museum. MEC will be available to provide
assessment, evaluation or recovery of any additional resources on a time-and-materials basis at
additional cost if potentially significant resources are found. Evaluation and determination of
appropriate treatment shall follow the steps outlined in City Policy 601.
Archaeology and paleontology monitoring will not be duplicated. Only one
archaeologicaljpaleontological monitor will be present at any time. The supervising archaeologist
and paleontologist will assure that the appropriate monitor is present; in addidtion, cross-trained
monitors will be assigned.
The project cost below is based on estimated hours necessary to complete the construction phase
of the project. If the schedule exceeds present estimates, additional hours will be charged at the
stated rates on a time-and-materials basis. Time is charged only while on site. No travel time or
expenses will be charged.
