of a grant agreement between the City of Vernon and Legacy LA Youth Development
Corporation.
Recommendation:
(Items A-B)
A. Find that the recommended actions are exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act
(“CEQA”), because (a) approval of the below-described Grant Agreement is not an “approval” as

Regular City Council Meeting Agenda
July 7, 2015
Page 4 of 10
“lead agency” as defined in Sections 15051 and 15367 nor a “responsible agency” as defined in
Section 15381.

execution of a grant agreement between the City of Vernon and Legacy LA Youth Development
Corporation effective June 30, 2015, that provides the following grant funding for certain capital

Finance Department
16. A Resolution of the City Council of the City of Vernon approving the termination of interest rate
swaps and the forms of swap termination agreements; and authorizing certain other matters
relating thereto.
Recommendation:
A. Find that approval of the resolution to terminate the two interest rate swap contracts entered into
December 2004 is a government fiscal activity which does not involve any commitment to any
specific project which may result in a potentially significant physical impact on the environment
and is therefore not a “project” as defined by California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”)
Guidelines section 15378 and not subject to CEQA review. Furthermore, even if it were a project,
it would be exempt under CEQA in accordance with Section 15061(b)(3), the general rule that
CEQA only applies to projects that may have an effect on the environment; and
B. Adopt a resolution of the City Council of the City of Vernon approving the termination of interest
rate swaps and the forms of swap termination agreements; and authorizing certain other matters
relating thereto, including the termination of the two outstanding 2004 interest rate swap
agreements with Morgan Stanley Capital Services LLC (Morgan Stanley) and Deutsche Bank AG
(Deutsche Bank). The swap agreements are being terminated in conjunction with the issuance of
2015 Electric System Revenue Taxable Series A Bonds in the par amount of $110.3 million. A
portion of the 2015 Electric System Revenue Taxable Series A Bonds proceeds will finance the
costs of terminating the two existing interest rate swap agreements.
17. Property and Casualty Insurance Placements for Fiscal Year 2015-16.
Recommendation:
(Items A-B)

exempt under the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) in accordance with Sections
15060(c)(3), 15378(b)(4), and 15378(b)(5). This is because the activity of authorizing the
placement of insurance will not result in direct or indirect physical changes in the environment
and, therefore, is not a “project,” as defined in Section 15378 of the CEQA Guidelines; and
Regular City Council Meeting Agenda
July 7, 2015
Page 5 of 10
B. Authorize the City Administrator to bind the City for the annual insurance coverage for fiscal year
2015-16, provided the total annual premiums to be paid shall not exceed $1,018,600 and $15,000

applies to projects that may have an effect on the environment; and
B. Authorize the donation of a surplus 1964 Crown Fire Coach 2000 GPM Pumper to be conveyed

an effect on the environment.; and
B. Authorize the Fire Chief to execute the existing Memorandum of Understanding

FY 2OI4 HSGP FOA
FOA Execurrve Summnnv
The FY 2014 HSGP plays an important role in the implementation of the National Preparedness
System by supporting the building, sustainment, and delivery of core capabilities essential to
achieving the National Preparedness Goal (the Goal) of a secure and resilient Nation. The
building, sustainment, and delivery of these core capabilities are not exclusive to any single level
of govemment, organization, or community, but rather, require the combined effort of the whole
community. The FY 2014 HSG? supports core capabilities across the five mission areas of
Prevention, Protection, Mitigation, Response, and Recovery based on allowable costs. HSGP is
comprised of three interconnected grant programs:
. State Homeland Security Program (SHSP)
. Urban Areas Security Initiative QaSfl. Operation Stonegarden (OPSG)
Together, these grant progrcms fund a range of preparedness activities, including planning,
organization, equipment purchase, training, exercises, and management and administration.

Funding Opportunity Description
.{. Program Summary
The FY 2014 HSGP is comprised of three interconnectod gmnt programs:
. State llomeland Security Program (SHSP): SHSP supports the implementation of
risk driven, capabilities-based State Homeland Security Strategies to address
capability targets set in Urban Area, State, and regional Threat and Hazard
Identification and Risk Assessments (THIMs). The capability targets are established
during the THIM process, and assessed in the State Preparedness Report (SPR) and
inform planning, organization, equipment, raining, and exercise needs to prevent,
protect against, mitigate, respond to, and recover from acts of terrorism and other
catastrophic events.. Urban Areas Security Initiative (UASI): The UASI program addresses the unique
risk driven and capabilities-based planning, organization, equipmen! training,
exercise needs, ofhigh-threat, high-density Urban Areas based on the capability
targets identified during the THIRA process and associated assessment efforts, and
assists them in building an enhanced and sustainable capacity to prevent, protect
against, mitigate, respond to, and recover from acts of terrorism.. Operation Stonegarden (OPSG): OPSG supports enhanced cooperation and
coordination among local, Tribal, territorial, State, and Federal law enforcement
agencies in ajoint mission to secure the United States' borders along routes of ingress
from intemational borders to include travel oonidors in States bordering Mexico and
Canada, as well as States and territories with international water borders.
All three programs arp founded on riskdriven, capabilities-based strategic plans. These
strategic plans outline capability requirements and inform how available frrnding may be
applied to manage risk. For these plans to be effective, govemment officials and elected
leaders, working with the whole community, must consider how to sustain current
capability levels and address potential gaps to prevent, protect, mitigate, respond to, and
recover from acts of terrorism and other disasters.
B. Program Priorities
The National Preparedness System is the instrument the Nation employs to build, sustain,
and deliver core capabilities in order to achieve the National heparedness Goal (the
Goal) of a secure and resilient Nation. Complex and far-reaohing threats and hazards
require a collaborative and whole community approach to national preparedness that
engages individuals, families, communities, private and nonprofit sectors, faith-based
organizations, and all levels of govemment. The guidance, programs, prooesses, and
systems that support each component ofthe National Preparedness System allows for the
integation ofpreparedness efforts that build, sustain, and deliver core capabilities and
achieve the desired outcomes identified in the Goal. The purpose of the HSGP isto
prevent terrorism and to prepare the Nation for the threats and hazards that pose the
4
FY 2014 HSGP FOA
greatest risk to the security ofthe United States; therefore, HSGP funded investnents
must have a terrorism-nexus,
To evaluate National progress in building, sustaining, and delivering the core capabilities
outlined in the Goal, FEMA annually publishes the National Preparedness Report (NPR).
Looking across all 3l core capabilities outlined in the Goal, the NPR provides a National
perspective on critical preparedness trends for whole community partners to use to inform
program priorities, allocate resources, and communicate with stakeholders about issues of
shared concem.
Grantees are expected to consider National areas for improvement identified in the 2013
National Preparedness Report, which include cybersecurity, recovery-focused core
capabilities, the integration of individuals with access and functional needs, enhancing
the resilience of infrastructure systems, and maturing the role of public-private
partnerships. Addressing these areas for improvement will enhance preparedness Nation-
wide.
In addition, the Department ofHomeland Security expects grantees to prioritize grant
funding to address gaps identified through the annual SPR in achieving capability targets
set through the annual THIRA. These assessments identiff the jurisdictions' capability
targets and current ability to meet those targets. Grantees should prioritize grant funds to
increase capability for high-priority core capabilities with low capability levels.
Minimum funding arnounts are not prescribed by the Departrnent for these priorities;
however, gfimtees are expected to support state, local, regional, and National efforts in
achieving the desired outcomes of these priorities.
Appendix B also includes other areas where funding can be applied to shengthen
preparedness efforts.

extensions, refer to Information Bulletin (IB) 379 located at
D. Risk Methodolory
Based upon the requirements of rfte Homeland Security Acl of 2002, as amended, DHS
continues to inform final grant allocation decisions based upon risk. DHS defines risk as:
"potential for an unwanted outcome resulting from an incident, event, or occurrence, as
determined by its likelihood and the associated consequences" (see
. DHS utilizes a
comprehensive risk methodology focused on thrce principal elements:. Threat -likelihood of an attack being attempted by an adversary;c Vulnerability - likelihood that an attack is successful, given that it is attempted; and. Consequence - effect ofan event, incident or occurence
The risk methodology determines the relative risk of trerrorism faced by a given area. It
takes into account the potential risk of tenorism to people, critical infrastructure, and
economic security. The threat analysis continues to account for threats from domestic
violent extremists as well as intemational terrorist groups and those individuals inspired
by terrorists abroad.
SHSP Allocations
FY 2014 SHSP funds will be allocated based on three factors: minimum amounts as
legislatively mandated, DHS' risk methodology, and anticipated effectiveness of
proposed projects. The anticipated effectiveness is assessed based on the applicant's
description ofhow the proposed projects, as outlined in the Investment Justification (U),
align with the State TIIIRA and SPR results, Each State and territory will receive a
minimum allocation under SHSP using the thresholds established in the Homeland
Security Act of 2002, as amended. All 50 States, the District of Columbia, and Puerto
Rico will rcceive 0.35 percent ofthe total funds allocated for grants under Section 2003
and Section 2004 ofthe Homeland Security Act of 2002, as amended. Four territories
(American Samoa, Guam, the Northem Mariana Islands, and the U.S. Virgin Islands) will
receive a minimum allocation of 0.08 percent ofthe total funds allocated for grants under
Section 2003 and 2004 of the Homeland Security Act of2002, as amended. For details on
pro$am-specific funding amounts, refer to Appendix A - FY 2014 Program Allocations.
UASI Allocations
FY 2014 UASI funds will be allocated based on DHS' risk methodology and then on
anticipated effectiveness ofproposed projects. The anticipated effectiyeness is assessed
based on the applicant's desoription ofhow the proposed projeots, as outlined in the IJ,
align with the Urban Area THIRA. Eligible candidates for the FY 2014 UASI program
6

Customs and Border Protection (CBP) Sector-specific border risk methodology. Factors
considered include, but are not limited to: threat, wlnerability, miles of border, and other
border-specific "law enforcement intelligence," as well as feasibility of FY 2014
Operation Orders to designated localities within the United States Border States and
territories. For details on program-specific funding amounts, refer to Appendix A - FY
2014 Program Allocations.
lll. Eligibilitylnformation
A. Eligibility Criteria

FY 2014 HSGP FOA
iv. Other Eligibility Requirements
Emergency Managemenl Assislance Compact @LIAC) Membership
In support of the Goal, grantees must belong to, be located in, or act as a temporary
member of EMAC, except for American Samoa and the Commonwealth of the
Northem Mariana Islands, which are not required to belong to EMAC at this time.
Atl assets supported in part or entirely with FY 2014 HSGP funding by States,
territories, and Tribes must be readily deployable to support emergency or disaster
operations per existing EMAC agteements. In addition, funding may be used for the
sustainment of core capabilities that, while they may not be physically deployable,
support national response capabilities such as Geographic/Geospatial Information
Systems (GIS), interoperable communications systems, capabilities as defined under
the mitigation mission area of the Goal, and fusion centers.
National Incident Managemenl Syslem (NIMS) Inpkmentation
Prior to allocation ofany Federal preparedness awards in FY 2014, grantees must
ensure and maintain adoption and implementation of NIMS.
Emergency management and incident response activities require carefully managed
resources (personnel, teams, facilities, equipment and/or supplies) to meet incident
needs. Utilization ofthe standardized rcsource management concepts such as typing,
inventorying, and cataloging promote a strong national mutual aid capability needed
to support delivery ofcore capabilities. Additional information on resource
management and national Tier I NIMS Resource Types can be found at
ht 8t : //w ww. fe ma. sov /r e s o ur c e -m anase me n t.
FEMA developed the NIMS Guideline for Credentialing of Personnel to describe
national credentialing standards and to provide written guidanoe regarding the use of
those standards. This guideline describes credentialing and typing processes, and
identifies tools which Federal Emergency Response Officials (FEROs) and
emergency managers at all levels ofgovemment may use both routinely and to
facilitate multijurisdictional coordinated responses.
Although State, local, Tribal, and private sector partners-including
nongovemmental organizations-are not required to credential thcir personnel in
accordance with these guidelines, FEMA strongly encourages them to do so in order
to leverage the Federal investment in the Federal Information Processing Standards
(FIPS) 201 infrastructure and to facilitate interoperability for personnel deployed
outside their home jwisdiction. Additional information oan be found at
Emergency Operulion Plan (EQP)
Grantees must update their EOP at lesst once every two years to comply with

SHSP and UASI Pass-Through Requhements
Awards made to the SAA for HSGP carry additional pass through requirements. Pass
through is defined as an obligation on the part ofthe States to make funds available to
local units of govemment, combinations of local units, or other speoific groups or
organizations. The State's pass through requirement must be met within 45 days of
the award date. Four requirements must be met to pass tkough grant funds:
o There must be some action to establish a firm commitnent on the part of the
awarding entity;o The action must be unconditional on the part of the awarding entity (i.e., no
contingencies for availability of SAA funds);o There must be documentary evidence of the commitment; ando The award terms must be communicated to the official grantee
The SAA must obligate at least 80 percent (80%) ofthe funds awarded under SHSP
and UASI to local units of government within 45 days of receipt of the funds. The
signatory authority ofthe SAA must certiS/ in writing that these obligations have
been met. A letter of intent (or equivalent) to distribute funds is not considered
suffrcient. Award sub-recipients must receive their funds within 45 days from the
date the funds are first made available to the grantee so that they can initiate
implementation of approved investrnents. For the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico, the
SAA must also obligate at least 80 percent (80%) ofthe funds to local units of
11
FY 2OI4 HSGP FOA
govemment within 45 days of receipt of the funds. For SHSP awards, no pass
through requirements will be applied to the District of Columbia, Guam, American
Samoa, the U.S. Virgin Islands, and the Commonwealth of the Northem Mariana
Islands. Any UASI funds retained by the SAA must be used to dircctly support the
designated Urban Areas in the State.
Under SHSP, the State may retain more than 20 percent (20%) of SHSP funding for
expenditure made by the State on behalfofthe local unit(s) of government. This may
occur only with the written consent of the local unit of govemment, with the written
consent specifying tle amount of funds to be r€tained and the intended use of funds.
Ifa written consent agreement is already in place from previous fiscal years, FEMA
will continue to recognize it for FY 2014. Ifany modifications to the existing
agreement are necessdy to reflect new initiatives, States should contact their assigned
FEMA Program Analyst.
If UASI funds are used by the SAA in support of the Urban Area, the SAA must
propose an Investrnent describing how UASI funds will be used by the SAA to

Environmental Planning and Historic Presenation @HP) Compliance
As a Federal agency, FEMA is required to consider the effects of its actions on the
environment and/or historic properties to ensure that all activities and programs
funded by the agency, inoluding grants-funded projects, comply with Federal EHP
regulations, laws and Executive Orders as applicable. Grantees and sub-grantees
proposing projeots that have the potential to impact the environment, including but
not limited to construction of communioation towers, modification or renovation of
existing buildings, structures and facilities, or new construction including
replacement offacilities, must participate in the FEMA EHP review process. The
EHP review process involves the submission ofa detailed project description that
't2
FY 2OI4 HSGP FOA
explains the goals and objectives ofthe proposed project along with supporting
documentation so that FEMA may determine whether the proposed project has the
potential to impact environmental resources and,/or historic properties. In some cases,
FEMA is also required to consult with other regulatory agencies and the public in

Appendix B - Program Priorities
Alignment of HSGP to the National Preparedness System
The Nation utilizes the National Preparedness System to build, sustain, and deliver core
capabilities in order to achieve the National Preparedness Goal (the Goal). The Goal is "a secure
and resilient Nation with the capabilities required across the whole community to prevent,
protect against, mitigate, respond to, and recover from the threats and hazards that pose the
greatest risk."
The objective of the National Preparedness System is to facilitate an integated, all-of-Nation,
risk informed, capabilities-based approach to preparedness. Complex and far-reaching threats
and hazards requirc a collaborative and whole community approach to national prrparedness that
engages individuals, families, communities, private and nonprofit sectors, faith-based
organizations, and all levels of govemment. The guidance, progmms, processes, and systems
that support each component of the National Preparedness System enable a collaborative, whole
community approach to national preparedness that engages individuals, families, communities,
private and nonprofit sectors, faith-based organizations, and all levels ofgovemment
(.ht tp : //www. fe q q. sgv/\e ho le -co tlrnluniry).
The FY 2014 HSGP Program contributes to the implementation of the National Preparedness
System by supporting the building, sustainment, and delivery ofcore capabilities. Core
capabilities are essential for the execution ofcritical tasks in the National Planning Frameworks
for each of the five mission areas outlined in the Goal. pelivering core capabilities requires the
combined effort ofthe whole community, rather than the exclusive effort ofany single
organization or level of govemment. The HSGP Program's allowable costs support efforts to
build and sustain core capabilities across the Prevention, Protection, Mitigation, Response, and
Recovery mission areas.
To evaluate national progress in building, sustaining, and delivering the core capabilities outlined
in the Goal, FEMA annually publishes the National Preparedness Report (NPR). Looking across
all 31 core capabilities outlined in the Goal, the NPR provides a national perspective on critical
preparedness trends for whole community parhers to use to inform program priorities, allocak
resources and communicate with stakeholders about issues of sharcd concem.
A koy focus and requirement ofthe HSGP is to prevent terrorism and to prepare the Nation for
the threats and hazards that pose the greatest risk to the security and resilience ofthe United
State, and the greatest risks along the Nation's borders; thercfore, HSGP funded invesEnents
must have a terrorism-nexus. When applicable, funding should support deployable assets that
can be utilized anywhere in the Nation through automatic assistance and mutual aid agreements,
inoluding but not limited to the EMAC.
In addition, the Department of Homeland Security expects grantees to prioritize grant funding to
address gaps identified through the annual SPR in achieving capability targets set through the
annual THIRA. These assessments identifu the jurisdictions' capability targets and current
ability to meet those targets. Grantees should prioritize grant funds to increase capability for
high-priority core capabilities with low capability levels. Minimum funding amounts are not
32
Appendix B-FY20l4 HSGP Priorities
prescribed by the Department for these priorities; however grantees are expected to support state,
local, regional, and national efforts in achieving the desired outcomes ofthese priorities.
Grantees are expected to consider national areas for improvement identified in the 2013 National
Preparedness Report, which include cybersecurity, recovery-focused core capabilities, the
integration of individuals with access and functional needs, enhancing the resilience of
infrastructure systems and maturing the role of public-private partnerships. Addressing these
areas for improvement will enhance preparedness nation-wide.
Using the core capabilities, the FY 2014 HSGP Program supports the achievement of the Goal
by:
o Preventing a threatened or an actual act of terrorism;
. Protecting our citizens, residents, visitors, and assets against the greatest threats and
hazards;
o Mitigating the loss of life and property by lessening the impact of future disasters;
. Responding quickly to save lives, protect property and the environment, and meet basic
human needs in the aftermath ofa catastrophic incident; and/or
r Recovering through a focus on the timely restoration, sfiengthening, and revitalization of
infrastructure, housing, and a sustainable economy, as well as the health, social, cultural,
historic, and environmental fabric of communities affected by a catastrophic incident.
The core capabilities contained in the Goal are highly interdependbnt and require the use of
existing preparedness networks and activities, improve training and exercise programs, promote
innovation, and ensure that the appropriate administrative, finance, and logistics systems are in
place.
To support building sustaining, and delivering these core capabilities, grantees will use the
components of the National Preparedness System. The components of the National Preparedness
System are: Identifying and Assessing Risk; Estimating Capability Requirements; Building and
Sustaining Capabilities; Planning to Deliver Capabilities; Validating Capabilities; and Reviewing
and Updating. For more information on each component, rcad the National Preparedness System
desoription available at
E41gn. Grantees are expected to use this process when using grant funds to address their
capability gaps.
Reporting on the Implementation ofthe National Preparedne*s System
Identifying and Assessing Risk and Estimating Capability Requirements
In order to qualiry for HSGP Program funding, all grantees shall develop and maintain a Threat
and Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment (IHIRA) whioh informs and supports the State
Preparedness Report (SPR). Only one THIRA submission from each State will be accepted. A
THIRA provides a comprehensive approach for identifying and assessing risks and associated
impacts. It expands on existing local, Tribal, tenitorial, and State Hazard Identification and Risk
Assessments (HIRAs) and other risk methodologies by broadening the factors considered in the
process, inoorporating the whole community throughout the entire process, and by accounting for
important community-specific characteristics. Comprehensive Preparedness Guide 201, Second
33
Appendix B-FY20l4 HSGP Priorities
Edition: THIRA (CPG 201, Second Edition) is available at ht1p!/wutrt jhug.gov/'nalena!:
preoaredness/plan.
In Step Four of the THIRA process, ajurisdiction should estimate the resources required tg
deliver the capability targets set in their THIRAs. Communities expr€ss Fesource requiremens
as a list ofresources needed to successfully manage their threats and hazards. Through the
capability estimation process, jurisdictions should identiS the resources from across the whole
community needed to meet capability targets. Each jurisdiction should decide which
combination ofresources is most appropriate to achieve its capability targets.
Reportingo UASIs are required to submit an annual update to their THIRA. UASIs will submit
their THIRA to the designated State Administrative Agency. THIRA submissions
shall be in alignment with CPG 201 , Second Edition. The Urban Area should
coordinate intemally to ensure its submission represents all jurisdictions within the
UASI program. UASI submissions qf the THIRA are due no later than December 31,
2014.. States are required to submit an annual update to their THIRA. States will submit
'their THIRA update along with their annual SPR through the Unified Reporting Tool
(URT) and email a copy of the URT to their respective FEMA Regional Federal
Preparedness Coordinator and copy .ferra-sor(@ferya.dhs.qov. THIRA submissions
shall be in alignment with CPG 201, Second Edition. State submissions of the
THIRA and SPRare due no later than December 31,2014. The State should
coordinate with each eligible Urban Area to ensure that the UASI THIRA
submissions occur in advance of this deadline, as the State must include the Urban
Area's input when conducting the statewide SPR assessment.
B uilding and Sustaining Capabililies
HSGP program grantees should ensure that grant funding is utilized to sustain critical core
capabilities within the National Preparedness System that were funded by past HSGP funding
cycles to include training ofpersonnel and lifecycle replacement of equipment. New capabilities
should not be built at the expense of maintaining current and critically needed core capabilities.
Ifnew core capabilities are being sought utilizing HSGP funding, gmntees must ensure that the
capabilities are deployable outside oftheir community to support regional and national efforts or
otherwise shareable with regional partners and aligned with a capability gap identified in the
THIRA/SPR. All capabilities being built or sustained must have a clear linkage to one or more
core capabilities in the Goa[.
NIMS Compliance
Grantees receiving HSGP funding are required to implement the National Incident
Management System (NIMS). The NIMS uses a systematio approach to integrate the best
existing processes and methods into a unified national framework for incident management.
Incident management refers to how incidents are managed across all homeland security
activities, including prevention, protection, and response, mitigation, and recovery. FY2014
grantees must utilize standardized resource management concepts such as typing,
inventorying, organizing, and tracking resources that facilitates the identification, dispatch,
deployment and recovery oftheir resources.
34
Appendix B-FY20l4 HSGP Priorities
Fusion Centers
DHS has identified State and major Urban Area fusion centers as a critical component ofour
Nation's disfiibuted homeland security and counterterorism architecture. They provide
grassroots intelligence and analyic capabilities within the state and local jurisdiction
. To that end, DHS
preparedness grants will continue to support designated State and major Urban Area fusion
centers and the
maturation of the Information Sharing Environment (ISE).
A National Network also provides a mechanism for the Federal govemment to receive
information from State, Local, tenitorT and Tribal partrrers, which helps create a more
complete threat picture at the National level. Participating in the Nationwide SAR Initiative
enables fusion centers to receive and analyze suspicious activity reporting from frontline
public safety personnel, the private sector, and the public, and ensure the sharing of SAR with
the Federal Bureau of Investigation's Joint Terrorism Task Forces for furfter investigation.
The 2010 National Security Stategt identifies fusion centers as critical in enlisting all ofour
intelligence, law enforcement, fire service, emergency management, and homeland security
capabilities to prevent acts ofterrorism on American soil.
In support ofthis strategic vision, the Department of Homeland Security's Office of
Intelligence & Analysis @HS I&A) is requiring designated State and major Urban Area
fusion centers to participate in an annual assessment of their achievement ofCritical
Qperational Capabilities (COCs) and Enabling Capabilities @Cs), as detailed in the Global
Justice Information Sharing Initiative's (Global) Baseline Capabilities lor State and Major
Urban Area Fusion Centers.
As maturation of the National Network continues to be a high priority in FY 2014, DHS is
requiring that all fusion center related funding requests be consolidated into a singte (l)
Investment for States or Urban Areas in which designated fusion centers reside, and this
Investment must address funding support for the designated fusion center. The single
Investrnent provides state and urban areas a means to centrally manage and report on fusion
center related activities. Grantees must coordinate with the fusion center when developing
a fusion center Invetment prior to submission, and the Investment must directly align
to and reference any capability gaps identilied during the center's individual 2013
Fusion Center Assessment Report. In particular, each proposed project included in the
fusion center Investment m[st reference the corresponding COC or EC, as well as
associated attribute(s), the funding investment is intended to address, Additionally, any
jurisdiction or agency that leverages HSGP frrnds to support intelligence- or fusion process-
related activities (i.e., intelligence unit, real time crime information and analysis centers, etc.)
must ensure these efforts are integrated and/or coordinated with the respective designated
State or major Urban Area fusion center(s).
In order to effectively measure implementation of this priority, designated State and major
Urban Area fusion oenters levoraging S[{SP and/or UASI grant funds will be evaluated based
upon complianoe with the guidance and requirements for the National Network of Fusion
Centers as set forth by the DHS Office oflntelligence and Analysis through the annual Fusion
Center Assessment Program.

As part of programmatic monitoring, grantees will be required to describe how
expenditures support maintenance and sustainment of current Goal core capabilities
within the BSIR. HSG? grantees will, on a project-by-project basis, check one ofthe
following:
o Sustaining or maintaining a capability acquired with Federal homeland security
funding;
o Sustaining or maintaining a capability acquired without Federal homeland security
funding;. Developing or acquiring a new core capability;. Through the SF-PPR" fusion centers will report on the achievement of capabilities
and compliance with measurement requirements within the Maturation and
Enhancement of State and Major Urban Area Fusion Centers priority through the
annual Fusion Center Assessment Program managed by DHS I&A and reported to
FEMA,
. Grantees will use the SPR to report NIMS implernentation.
Planning to Deliver Capabilities
State grantees shall develop, maintain, or revise as necessary, jurisdiction-wide, all threats and
hazards EOPs consistent with CPG 101 v.2, which serves as the foundation for State, local,
Tribal, and territory emergency planning. Grantees must update their EOP at least once every
two years.
In building future EOPs, planners should anticipate the increasing complexity and decreasing
predictability of the future operating environment. These efforts should actively use strategic
foresight, including the multiple driving forces of change and the associated evolving strategic
needs shown in FEMA's Crisis Response and Disaster Resilience 20j0 Report. The Report can
be found at
initiative.
Reportingo Grantees will use the SPR to report EOP compliance with CPG l0l v2.
Va lid atin g C ap a b I I iti e s
Grantees should develop long-term training and exercise priorities that examine, validate and/or
address the capability gaps identified through their annual THIRA and SPR by developing a
multi-year Training and Exercise Plan (TEP). Grantees should also review and consider areas
for improvement identified from real-world events and exercises, and national areas for
improvement identified in the 2013 National Preparedness Report.
The TEP should consider the risks and capability requirements described in the THIRA along
with the guidance provided by elected and appointed officials to identify and set training and
36
Appendix E-FY20l4 HSGP Priorities
exercise program priorities and develop a multi-year schedule ofexercise events and supporting
training activities to meet those priorities A TEP that is developed from a Training and Exercise
Planning Workshop (TEPW) provides a roadmap to accomplish the multi-year priorities
identified by elected and appointed officials and whole community stakeholders. These priorities
help curriculum and exercise planners design and develop a progressive program of aaining and
exercises that build, sustain, and deliver core capabilities. Information related ta TEPs and
TEPWs can be found on the HSEEP website at https://www.llis.dlts.pov/lseeo.
All grantees will {evelop and maintain a progressive exercise program consistent with Homeland
Security Exercise and Evaluation Program (HSEEP) @. A
progressive, multi-year exercise program enables organizations to participate in a series of
increasingly complex exercises, with each successive exercise building upon the previous one
until mastery is achieved while also taking into account prior lessons learned. Regardless of the
exercise type, each exercise within the progressive series is linked to a set of common program
priorities and designed to test assooiated capabilities.
Reporting
o Following the TEPW, all gmntees and sub-grantees are required to develop a multi-
year haining and exercise plan that identifies combination ofexercises, along with
associated training requirements, that addrcss the priorities identified in the TEPW.
The training and exercise plan shall be submittedto hseep@dhs.eov no later than 90
days after the TEPW. States are encouraged to post their schedules to the National
Exercise Scheduling System (NEXS) at
. Consistent with the national exercise program, grantees shall develop and maintain a
progressive exercise program. Grantees must either submit one After Action
Report/[mprovement Plan (AARi/lP) that captures the lessons learned and corrective
actions from the progressive exercise program conducted within the HSGP Period of
Performance; g! submit individual AAXI/IPs for each HSGP-funded
exercise. AAMPs should be submitted to hseep@fema.dhs.eov and include a list of
corrective actions and lessons leamed, no later than 90 days after completion ofthe
exercise. In accordance with HSEEP guidance grantees are reminded of the
importance of implementing corrective actions iteratively throughout the progressive
exercise cycle. Grantees are encouraged to use the HSEEP AAR/IP template located
at httos;//wyw.llis.dhs/hseep and utilize the Corrective Action Program (CAP)
System at 4ttos://hseeo.4hs.sov/caos/, as a means to track the implementation of
corrective actions listed in the AAR./tr.
Reviewing and Updatlng
On a recuning basis, capabilities, resources, and plans should be reviewed to determine ifthey
remain relevant or need to be updated as it relates to the HSGP. This review should be based on
a current risk assessment and utilize information gathered during the validation process. These
reviews will provide a means to examine preparedness analyses; determine priorities; direct
preparedness actions; and calibrate goals and objectives. FY 2014 HSGP requires State and
Urban Area Homeland Security Strategies be updated every other year, and shall be informed
by THIRA process results. The assessment and results support communities' strategio planning

Appendix B-FY20I4 HSGP Priorities
initiative and informs efforts needed to adapt to and manage the changing risk landscape,
sustain sfiengths, and obtain or borrow resources from whole community parsrers.
Supplemental SHSP Guidance
Collaboration with Olher Federal Preparedness Programs
DHS strongly encourages States, Urban Areas, and regions to understand other Federal
preparedness programs in theirjurisdictions and to work with them in a collaborative manner to
leverage all available resources and avoid duplicative activities. For example, U. S. Department
of Health and Human Services ([IHS) has two robust preparedncss programs - Center for
Disease Control (CDC) Public Health Emergency Preparedness @FIEP) cooperative agreement
program and Assistant Secretary for Preparedness and Response's (ASPR's) Hospital
Preparedness Program (HPP) cooperative agreement program - that focus on preparedness
capabilities. CDC's 15 public health preparedness capabilities and ASPR's eight healthcare
preparedness capabilities serve as opemtional components for many ofthe Goal core capabilities,
and collaboration with the PHEP directors and HPP coordinators can build capacity around
shared interests and investments that fall in the scope ofthese FIHS cooperative agrcements and
the 2014 HSGP.
Each SHSP and UASI funded Invesrnent that addresses biological risk, patient care or health
systems preparedness should be implemented in a coordinated manner with other Federal
emergency preparedness programs such as those administered by the HFIS Office of the
Assistant Secretary for Preparedness and Response, the CDC, and the U.S. Department of
Transportation's (DOT) National Highway Traflic Safety Administration.
Govenrcnce
Keeping with the guiding principles of govemance for all DHS preparedness programs, grantees
must cooidinate with their stakeholders !o examine how they integrate preparedness activities
across disciplines, agencies, and levels of govemment, including State, territorial, local, and
Tribal units of govemment. A cohesive planning framework should be incorporated that builds
and implements homeland security initiatives which loverage DHS resources, as well as other
Federal, State, tenitory, local, private sector, faith-based community, and Tribal resources.
Specific atlention should be paid to how all available preparedness funding sources (multiple
Federal sources as well as State and local sources) can be effectively utilized in a collaborative
manner to support the whole community approach to emergency preparedness and management
and to the enhancement of overall capabilities. To accomplish this, the SAA must establish or
reestablish a unified Senior Advisory Committee (SAC).
S en io r Advisory C ommifl e e
The SAC builds upon govemance sEuctures that may already be established under different
FEMA preparedness grant programs, but the nature and govemance of this Commiftee was new
for FY 2013 and continues in FY 2014 for HSGP. The SAC should build upon previously
established advisory bodies under HSGP (including the SHSP and UASI programs), Nonprofit
Security Grant Program (NSGP), Transit Security Grant Program (TSGP), and Port Socurity
Grant Program (PSGP), which currently exist in support of States and Urban Areas, Tribal
nations, non-profit organizations, transit agencies and Amtrak, and port areas. Examples of
advisory bodies that should be included on the SAC include: Urban Area Working Groups
38
Appendix B-FY20l4 HSGP Priorities
(UAWGs), Statewide Interoperability Goveming Board (SIGB), Area Maritime Security
Committees (AMSCs), Regional Transportation Security Working Groups (RTSWGs), Citizen
Coqps Councils, and Children's Working Crroups. To ensure a whole community effort, SAC
membership should include representatives ofthese various stakehglder groups/committees, and
should also include direct or indirect representation for all relevantjurisdictions and response
disoiplines (including law enforcement, fire service, and emergcncy menagement), UASI-funded
Urban Areas, as well as Citizen Corps Councils, Tribal representatives, non-profit, faith based,
and voluntary organizations such as the American Red Cross. SACs are encouraged to develop
subcommittee structures, as neoessary, to address issue- or region-specific considerations in
suppert of overarching implementation.
The responsibilities of a SAC include:
. Integrating preparedness activities across disciplines, the private sector, non-profit
organizations, faith-based, community, and all levels of govemment, including local,
StBte, Tribat, and tenitorial, with the goal of maximizing coordination and reducing
duplication of effort;o Creating a cohesive planning network and framework that builds and implements
preparedness initiatives which leverage DHS resources, as well as other Federal, State,
tenitorial, local, private sector, faith-based community, and Tribal resources;
. Management of all available preparedness funding sources (multiple Federal sowces as
well as State and local sources) to enhance effective utilization of and elimination of
duplication of effort across alI stakeholders and disciplines; and
. Ensuring that the application for SHSP and UASI funds align with the THIRA and work
to fill capability gaps identified in the SPR.
Senior Advisory Commifree Composition and Scope
1. Membership
The SAC must include whole community intrastate and interstate partners as applicable
and have balanced representation among entities with operational responsibilities for
terrorism/disaster prevention, protection, mitigation, response, and recovery activities
within the State.
The manbership of the SAC must reflect the threats and hazards identified in the State's
THIRA as well as each of the core capabilities, in particular those core capabilities
identified as having large capability gaps identified in the State's most recent State
Preparedness Report (SPR). SAAs will use the URT to verifr compliance of SAC
charter requirements. Further, the SAC must include representatives that were involved
in the production ofthe Stete's THIRA and represent the interests of the five mission
areas as outlined in the Goal.
The above membership requirement does not prohibit States, Urban Areas, regional
transit and port entities, or other recipients ofDHS preparedness funding from retaining
their existing stnrcture under separate progBms; however, at a minimum, those bodies
must support and feed into the larger SAC. The composition, structure and charter ofthe

SAC should reflect this focus on building care capabitities, instead of simplyjoining
previously existing advisory bodies under other grant programs.
The SAA must ensure that appropriate representation from defined UASl-funded Urban
Areas is included on the SAC. FEMA strongly encourages that, wherever possible,
previously established local working groups be leveraged for this puqpqse to ensure that
UASI resources ane managed in the most efficient and effective manner possible. The
UAWG should also support State efforts to develop the THIRA and SPR, particularly as
it relates to UASI activities.
For designated Urban Areas, the SAA POCs are responsible for identifying and
coordinating with the POC for the UAWG, who should be a member of the SAC. The
POC's contact information must be provided to FEMA with the grant application. SAAs
must work with existing Urban Areas to ensure that information for current POCS is on
file with FEMA.
Finally, FEMA recommends that organizations advocating on behalf ofvulnerable
populations including youth, the elderly and individuals with functional needs, socio-
economic factors and cultural diversity, be invited to participate in the SAC.
Collaboration with State agencies and other stakeholder organizations
Program representatives from the fo[lowing entities must be members of the SAC (as
applicable): State Homeland Security Advisor (HSA) (if this role is not also the SAA),
State Emergency Management Agency @MA) Director, State Public Health Officer,
State Public Safety Officer (and SAA for Justice Assistance Grants, ifdifferent), State
Court Qfficial, State Emergency Medical Services @MS) Director, State Trauma System
Manager, Statewide Interoperability Coordinator, State Citizen Corps Council, the State
Emergency Medical Services for Children @MSC) Coordinator, Stste Education
Department, State Human Services Department, State Child Welfare Services, State
Juvenlle Justice Services, Urban Area POC, Senior Members of AMSCs, Senior
Members of the RTSWG, Senior Security Oflicials from Major Transportation Systems,
and the Adjutant General.
Whole Community Engagement
SHSP and UASI grantees must engage with the whole community to advance community
and individual preparedness and to wgrk as a nation to build and sustain resilience (see
hup://Vwwrfema.qgv/whole-conlmunitv\. Grantees must also inte$ate the needs of
children and individuals with disabilities or access and functional needs into activities
implemented with SHSP and UASI funds.
Collaboration with Nonprofi t Organizations
SHSP and UASI grantees must also work witl the nonprofit community, including
through the dedication ofLETPA funds and resources, to address terrorism prevention
concems, seek input on the needs ofthe nonprofit sector, and support the goals oftheir
investrnents.
40
Appendix B-FY20I4 HSGP Priorities
5. Collaboration with Tribes
FEMA strongly encourages States, Urban Areas, and regions to work with Tribal nations
in overall initiatives such as whole community preparedness and emergency management
planning.
6. Coordination with other Federal agencies and programs
States and Urban Areas must coordinate among the entire scope ofFederal partners,
national initiatives and grant progams to identify opportunities to leverage resources
when implementing their preparedness programs. This may include but is not limited to:
Medical Reserve Corps, CDC, and ASPR. Emergency Medical Services for Children
@MSC) grants, ASPR Hospital Preparedness Program (HPP), CDC Public Health
Emergency Preparedness (PHEP), CDC Cities Readiness Initiative (CRI), Srategic
National Stockpile Programs, and EMS. However, coordination is not limited to grant
funding. It also includes leveraging assessments such as TSA's Baseline Assessment and
Security Enhancement @ASE); reporting from the Intelligenoe Community, risk
information such as U.S. Coast Guard's Maritime Security fusk Analysis Model
(MSRAM), and CBP Sector Analysis.
Senior Advisory Corfimifiee Chartet
The govemance of the SHSP and UASI programs through the SAC must be directed by a
charter. All members of the SAC should sign and date the charter showing their agreement with
its content and their representation on the Committee. Revisions to the governing charter must be
sent to the grantee's assigned FEMA Program Analyst. The SAC charrcr must at a minimum
address the following:
r A detai led description of the SAC's composition and an explanation of key govemance
processes, including how SAC is informed by the State's THIRA and SPR data refleoting
capability gaps and the approach to address gaps in core capabilities;
o A description of the frequency at which the SAC will meet;
o How existing governance bodies will be leveraged by the Committee;
. A detailed description of how decisions on programmatic priorities funded by SHSP and
UASI are made and how those decisions will be documented and shared with its
members and other stakeholders, as appropriate; and
o A description ofdefined roles and responsibilitics for financial decision making and
meeting adminiskative requirements.
To ensure ongoing coordination efforts, SAAs are encouraged to share community preparedness
information submitted in the State's BSIR with members of the SAC. The cha(er should be
made available upon request to promote transparency in decision-making related to HSGP
activities.
To manage this effort and to further reinforce collaboration and coondination across the
stakeholder community, a portion of the 20 percent (207o) holdback of a State or territory award
may be utilized by the SAA for the purpose ofsupporting the SAC and to ensure representation
and active participation of SAC members. Funding may be used for hiring and training planners,
establishing and maintaining a program management structure, identifying and managing
4L
Appendix B-FY20I4 HSGP Priorities
projects, conducting research necessary to inform the planning process, and developing plans
that bridge mechanisms, documents, protocols, and procedures.
SAAs will use the URT to verify compliance of SAC charter requirements.
S upp I emental UAS I G uidance
The UASI program is intended to provide financial assistance to address the unique multi-
discipline planning, organization, equipment, training, and exercise needs of high-threat, high-
density Urban Areas, and to assist these areas in building and sustaining capabilities to prevent,
protect against, mitigate, respond to, and recover from thrcats or acts ofterrorism using the
Whole Community approach. Many capabilities which support terrorism preparedness
simultaneously support preparedness for other hazards, Grantees must demonstrate the dual-use
quality for any activities implemented that are not explicitly focused on terrorism preparedness.
Urban Areas must use UASI funds to employ regional approaches to overall preparedness and
are encouraged tg adopt regional response structures whenever appropriate. UASI program
implementation and govemance must include regional partners and should have balanced
representation among entities with operational responsibilities for prevention, prot€ction,
mitigation, response, and reoovery activities within the region. In some instances, Urban Area
boundaries cross State borders. States must ensure that the identified Urban Areas take an
inclusive regional appmach to the development and implementation of the UASI program and
involve the contiguous jurisdictions, mutual aid partners, port authoritios, rail and transit
authorities, State agencies, State Wide Interoperability Coordinators, Citizen Corps Council(s),
and campus law enforcement in their program activities,
Grantees must also demonstrate the integration ofchildren and individuals with disabilities or
access and functional needs into aCtivities implemented under this program.
Composition
Pursuant to provisions ofthe 9/l I Ac! eligible UASI sites were determined based on an analysis
of relative risk of the 100 most populous Metopolitan Statistical Areas (MSAs), as defined by
OMB. MSAs are used by DHS to determine eligibility for panicipation in the program.
Geographical areas queried do not equate to minimum mandated membership representation of
an Urban Area, nor does this guarantee funding for geographioal areas queried. UAWGs must
continue to take a regional approach to membership but are not required to expand or contract
existing Urban Area participation to conform to MSA composition. Detailed information on
MSAs is publioly available from the United States Census Bureau at
UASI Program Requirements
The SAA will be responsible for ensuring compliance with the fiduciary and programmatic
administration requirements of the UASI program.
o ldentify POCs. The SAA must confirm a specific POC with the designated Urban Area.
The SAA POCs are responsible for identifying and coordinating with the POC for the
UAWG. This information must be provided to FEMA with the grant application. SAAs
42
Appendix B-FY2014 HSGP Priorities
must work with existing Urban Areas to ensure that information for current POCs is on
file with FEMA.
Define the Urben Area. The SAA POC, in coordination with the candidate Urban
Areas, must define the Urban Area, as it will apply to the UASI program. The identified
city or combined entity represents the candidate Urban Area eligible to apply for funding
under the LJASI program. For those Urban Areas with a combined entity, that area
represents the minimum area that must be part of the defined Urban Area. The definition
of the Urban Area is limited tojurisdictions contiguous to the geographic area used to
determine eligibility, or those jurisdictions in that area which have established formal
mutual aid agreements. States may request a waiver for this limitation for regions
previously established by Executive Order, law, ot compact. For the purposes of the
UASI program, the Washington, D.C. Urban Area will consist of the National Capital
Region (NCR) as set forth in l0 U.S.C. 52674(f)(2). In ceordination with the UAWG,
the SAA POC may redefine the geographic boundaries ofan existing Urban Area, as it
will apply to the UASI program. The SAA POC must notiry FEMA of this change.
Establish the UAWG. Membership in the UAWG must provide either direct or indircct
representation for all relevant jurisdictions and response disciplines (including law
enforcement, fire service, EMS, and emergenoy management) that comprise the defined
Urban Area. It must also be inclusive of local Citizen Corps Council or their equivalent
and Tribal representatives. The UAWG should also ensure the integration of local
emergency management, public health, and health care systems into a coordinated,
sustained local capability to respond effectively to a mass casualty incident. In addition,
the UAWG should include officials responsible for the adminisnation of CDC and ASPR
cooperative agrcements. Finally, it is recommended that members advocating on behalf
ofvulnerable populations including youth, the elderly and individuals with functional
needs, socio-economic factors and cultural diversiry, be invited to provide representati.on.
The SAA POC must ensure that appropriate representation for the defined Urban Area is
included per this guidance. FEMA strongly encourages that, wherever possible,
previously established local worting groups should be leveraged for this purpose to
ensure that UASI funded resources are managed in the most ef{icient and effective
manrter possible. The UAWG may also support State efforts to develop the SPR,
particularly as it relates to UASI funded activities.
Governance. The jurisdictions identified in Appendix A - FY 2014 Program
Allocations represent the candidate Urban Areas eligible to apply for funding. The
UAWG will be responsible for coordinating the development and implementation of all
program initiatives. States and Urban Areas must consider including counties within
which the cities reside, contiguous jurisdictions, MSAs, operational areas, and mutual aid
partners, as appropriate, in the govemance process.
In keeping with sound project management practices, the UAWG must ensure that its
approach to critical issues such as membership, govemance structure, voting rights, grant
management and administration responsibilities, and funding allocation methodologies
43
Appendix B-FY20l4 HSGP Priorities
are formalized in a working group charter or other form of standard operating procedure
related to the UASI program govemance. The charter must also outline how decisions
made in UAWG meetings will be documented and shared with UAWG members. The
UAWG charter must be on file with FEMA prior to drawing down UASI funding and
must be available to all UAWG members to promote transparency in decision-making
related to the UASI program.
UASIs will use the URT to verify UAWG structure and membership. Urban Areas must
notiff the SAA and FEMA Program Analyst of any updates to the UAWG structure or
memb€rship.
Develop Urban Area TIIIRA. As a result of the improved govemance process and the
rationale for maintaining and sustaining existing capabilities and the development ofnew
capabilities, members of the UAWG should be involved in the development of an Urban
Area THIRA coordinated with the State THIRA, and subsequent updates.
Urban Area Homeland Security Strategy, Urban Area Homeland Security Strategies
should be updated every two yeanl at a minimum, to ensure that their stategies continue
to address prevention., protection, miligation, response, and recovery, and reflect how
their goals and objectives aligr to the Goal and the Whole Community approach.
Allocation ofFunds. The use and allocation ofall grant funds available through the
UASI program must focus on the Investments identified in the Urban Area's U and the
implementation of the FEMA-approved Urban Area Homeland Security Strategy. The
use of funds must also be consistent with overall UASI program guidelines, the State
Homeland Security Strategy, the National Preparrdness System, and must develop or
sustain one or more core capabilities in the 0oal. Funds used to support whole
community and individual prcparedness related efforts, such as engaging non-
govemmental organizations and vulnerable populations demonstrating the integration of
children and individuals with disabilities or access and functional needs in all phases of
emergency management, participation of disaster volunteers, such as Community
Emergency Response Teams (CERTs) in training, exercises and response and recovery
operations, and educating the public should be coordinated with local CERT programs
and/or Citizen Corps Councils.
The UAWG, in coordination with the SAA POC, must develop a methodology for
allocating funding available through the UASI program. The UAWG must reach
consensus on all UASI funding allocations. Ifconsensus cannot be reached within the 45-
day time period allotted for the State to obligate funds to sub-grantees, the SAA must
make the allocation determination. The SAA must provide written dooumentation
verifying the consensus of the UAWG, or the failure to achieve otherwise, on the
allocation of funds and submit it to FEMA immediately after the 45-day time period
allotted for the State to obligate funds to sub-grantees.
Any UASI funds retained by the State must be used in direct support of the Urban Area.
States must provide documentation to the UAWG and FEMA upon request
44
Appendix B-FY2014 HSGP Priorities
demonstrating how any UASI funds retained by the State are directly supporting the
Urban Area. Ifthe SAA intends to retain any UASI funds, the SAA must prepare an
Investrnent that demonstrates how the retained funds will be used to directly support the
designated Urban Area in the State. This Invesfinent should be included in the designated
Urban Area's IJ.
S upplemental OPSG Guidance
OPSG provides funding to designated localities to enhance cooperation and coordination
between Federal, State, local, Tribal, and tenitorial law enforcement agenoies in ajoint mission
to secure the United Starcs borders along routes ofingress from intemational borders to include
travel corridors in States bordering Mexico and Canada, as well as States and territories with
Intemational water borders.
OPSG is intended to support United States border States and territories in accomplishing the
following objectives:
o Increase capability to prevent, protect against, and respond to border security issues;
. Encourage local operational objectives and capabilities to enhance National and State
Homeland Security Strategies (such as the Federal Secure Borders Initiative and United
States CBP/ BP strategies);. Increase coordination and oollaboration among Federal, State, local, Tribal, and territorial
law enforcement agencies;o Continue the distinct capability enhancements required for border security and border
protection;
. Provide intelligence-based operations through CBP/BP Sector Level experts to ensure
safety and operational oversight ofFederal, State, local, Tribal, and teritorial law
enforcement agencies participating in OPSG operational activities;
. Support a request to the Govemor to activate, deploy, or redeploy specialized National
Guard Units/Packages and/or elements of State law enforcement to increase or augrnent
specialized/technical law enforcement elements operational activities; and
. Continue to increase operational, material and technolggical readiness of State, local,
Tribal, and territorial law enforcement agencies.
OPSG funds must be used to increase operational capabilities ofFederal, State, local, Tribal, and
territorial law enforcement, promoting a layered, coordinated approach to law enforcement
within United States border States and territories.
. Federal, State, Local, Tribal, and Territorial OPSG Integrated Planning Team
(IPT). It is recommended that Federal, State, local, Tribal, and territorial partners
establish and maintain an OPSG IPT with representation from all participating law
enforcement agencies, co-chaired by representatives from CBP/BP, the SAA, and
participating law enforcement agencies' OPSG program representstives.
Coordination Requirements
All operational plans should be crafted in cooperation and coordination among Federal, State,
local, Tribal, and territorial partners. Consideration will be given to applications that are
45
Appendix B-FY2014 HSGP Priorities
coordinated across multiple jurisdictions. All applicants must coordinate with the CBP/BP
Sector Headquarters with geographic responsibility for the applicant's location in developing and
submitting an Operations Order with an embedded budget to the SAA.
After awards are announced, prospective grant recipients will re-scope the draft Operations
Order and resubmit as a final Operations Order with an embedded budget, based on actual dollar
amounts te be awarded. Final Operations Qrders will be approved by the appropriate Sector
Headquarters and forwarded to Headquarters, Office of Border Patrol, Washington, D.C., before
funding is released.
Grantees may not begin operations, obligate, or expend any funds until the final Operations
Order and embedded budget has been approved by FEMA GPD and CBP/BP Headquarters and
any existing special conditions and/or restrictions are removed. OPSG activities are expected to
maximize HSGP strategic planning efforts and integration with State, Tribal, territory, Urban
Area, and local Homeland Security Strategies.
Management and Administration (M&A)
For information on how t,o determine M&A for OPSG awards, please review GPD policy,

Appendix B-FY2014 HSGP Priorities
Additional Funding Considerations
Below are additional areas to consider where funding can be applied to strengthen preparedness
efforts.
Enhancing Cy bercecurity Capabilities
Applicants arc encouraged to propose projects to aid in implementation ofall or part ofthe
National Institute of Standards and Technology (NISQ Cyber Security Framework when
requesting funds for cybersecurity. The CSF is available at
The
Framework gathers existing global standards and practices to help organizations understand,
communicate, and manage their cyber risks. For organizations that don't know where to start,
the Framework provides a road map. For organizations with more advanced cybersecurity, the
Framework ofTers a way to better communicate with their leadership and with suppliers about
management of cyber risks.
The Department of Homeland Security's Critical Infrastructure Cyber Community Cr Voluntary
Program also provides resources to critical infrastnrcture owners and operators to assist in
adoption of the Framework and managing cyber risks. For more information visit hap://ww.us-
cert.sov/ccuhedvp.
Maos Casualg Incident Preparedness and Cilizen heparcdness
Although the Citizen Corps Program (CCP) and Metropolitan Medical Response System
(MMRS) are no longer funded as discrete grant programs within HSGP, States may include IJs
funding and supporting CCP and MMRS activities/programs. Activities funded under these
projects must meet the allowability requirements of tlre SHSP and UASI programs. The
following coordination requirements will remain in place for proposed activities that support
mass casualty incident preparedness, as well as citizen preparedness.
Mass casualty preparedness must be conducted in collaboration with State/cityi local health
deparfinents that administer Federal funds from HHS to enhence the integration oflocal
emergency management, public health, and health care systems into a coordinated, sustained
local capability to respond effectively to a mass casualty incident or a response to catastrophic
events and acts of terrorism. Grantees must also demonstrate how their Investments will
increase the effectiveness of emergency preparedness planning and response for the whole
community by integating and coordinating activities for vulnerable populations inoluding
children, the elderly, pregnant women, and individuals with disabilities and others with access
and functional needs. Further, grantees are strongly encouraged to collaborate with local,
regional, and State public health and health care partners, including Medical Reserve Corps
Units and Citizen Corps Councils or their equivalent, as well as leverage other Federal programs,
suoh as the F{HS ASPR Hospital Preparedness Program and Emergency Systems for Advance
Registration of Volunteer Health Professionals (ESAR-VHP), CDC Cities Readiness Initiative
(CRI), PHEP, and Strategio National Stockpile Programs.
To demonstrate whole community engagement, Citizen Corps Councils and Community
Emergency Response Teams (CERTs) programs must regisler new programs or update
information on the website in order to be considered by a state or local jurisdiotion for inclusion
in their IJs when applying for HSGP funds. Program updates can be made at
47
Appendix B-FY20l4 HSGP Priorities
http: //www.readv.gov/citizen-colps and at htto://wyw.fema.qov/corymunily-emersencv-response-
teams. The Citizen Corps and CERT Core Capabilities Tool (CCT) has been developed to help
$antees develop IJs that reference how Citizen Corps and CERT activities contribute to and
support core capabilities. The CCT is avdltble at htto://www.r?adv.eov/citizen-corps/citizen-
c qrp s - er a!1 t - i nfo rmat i o n - a n dlli n a nc i a l- f e s o w c g s.
Citizen preparedness must be coordinated by an integrated body of govemment and
nongovemmental representatives. State and looal govemment recipients of HSGP funds must
have a coordinating body to serve as their Citizen Corps Council, with membership that includes,
but is not limited to: representatives from emergenoy management, homeland security, law
enforcement, fire sorvice, EMS, public health or their designee, elected officials, the private
sector (especially privately owned critical infrastructure), private nonprofits, nongovemmental
organizations (including faith-based, community-based, and voluntary organizations), and
advocacy groups for children, seniors, people with disabilities and others with access and
functional needs.
48
Appendix B-FY20l4 HSCP Priorities
Appendix C - Funding Guidelines
Grantees must comply with all the requirements in 44 CFR Part $13 and 2 CFR Part $215.
In general, grantees should consult with their FEMA Headquarters Program Analyst prior to
making any Investment that does not clearly meet the allowable expense criteria established by
the FOA. Funding guidelines established within this section support the five mission areas-
Prevention, Protection, Mitigation, Response, and Recovery-and associated core capabilities
within the Goal.
Allowable Investrnents made in support of the HSGP priorities as well as other capability-
enhancing projects must fall into the categories of planning, organization, exercises, training, or
equipment.
Planning (SHSP and UASI)
SHSP and UASI funds may be used for a range of emergency preparedness and management
planning activities and such as those associated with the development of the THIRA, SPR, and
other planning activities that support the Goal and placing an emphasis on updating and
maintaining a current EOP that conforms to the guidelines outlined in CPG 101 v 2.0 For
additional information, please see
ht t o : //ww w. fe m a. gov/ o df/ ab out / div i s i ons /np d/ C P G -l 0 I -V 2. p df .
Organization (SHSP and UASI Onty)
Organizational activities include:
. Program management;o Development of whole community partnerships, through groups such as Citizen Corp
Councils;. Structures and mechanisms for information sharing between the public and private sector;. lmplementing models, programs, and workforce enhancement initiatives to address
ideologically-inspired radicalization to violence in the homeland;
. Tools, resources and activities that facilitate shared situational awareness between the
public and private sectors;o Operational Support;. Utilization of standardized resource management concepts such as typing, inventorying,
organizing, and tracking to facilitate the dispatch, deployment, and recovery of resources
before, during, and after an incident;. Responding to an increase in the threat level under the National Terrorism Advisory
System (NTAS), or needs in resulting from a National Special Security Event; ando Paying salaries and benefits for personnel to serve as qualified intelligence analysts.
States and Urban Areas must justi$ proposed expenditures ofSHSP or UASI funds to support
organization activities within their IJ submission by using historical data or other analysis. All
States are allowed to utilize up to 50 percent (507o) oftheir SHSP funding and all Urban Areas
are allowed up to 50 percent (50%) of their UASI funding for personnel costs. At the request of
49
Appendix C-FY20I4 HSGP Funding Guidelines
a recipient of a grant, the Administrator may grant a waiver of the 50 percent (50%) limitation
noted above. Organizational activities under SHSP and UASI include:o Intelligence analysts. Per the Personnel Reimbursement for Intelligence Cooperation
and Enhancement (PRICE) of Homeland Seatrity Ac, (Publio Law I 10-412), SHSP and
UASI funds may be used to hire new staff and/or contractor positions to serve as
intelligence analysts to enable informatior/intelligence sharing capabilities, as well as
support existing intelligence analysts previously covered by SHSP or UASI funding. In
order to be hired as an intelligence analyst, staff and/or contractor personnel must meet at
least one ofthe following criteria:- Successfu y complete training to ensure baseline proficiency in intelligence
analysis and production within six months ofbeing hired; and/or,- Previously served as an intelligence analyst for a minimum of two years either in
a Federal intelligence agency, the military, or State and/or local law enforcement
intelligence unit
As identified in the Maturation and Enhancement of Stdte and Major Urban Area Fusion
Centers prioity, all fusion center analytic personnel must demonstrate qualifications that meet or
exceed competencies identified in the Common Conpetencies for State, Local, and Tribal
Intelligence Analysts, which outlines the minimum categories of training needed for intelligenca
analysts. A certificate of completion of such training must be on file with the SAA and must be
made available to the grantee's respective FEMA Program Analyst upon request. In addition to
these training requirements, fusion centors should also continue to mature their analytic
capabilities by addressing gaps in analytic capability identified during the fusion center's annual
assessment.
. Overtime costs. Overtime costs arc allowable for personnel to participate in
information, investigative, and intelligence sharing activities specifically related to
homeland security and specifically requested by a Federal agency. Allowable costs are
limited to overtime associated with federally requested pa(icipation in eligible fusion
activities, inoluding anti-terrorism task forces, Joint Terrorism Task Forces (JTTFs), Area
Maritime Security Committees (as required by lhe Moritime Transportation Security Act
of 2002\,DHS Border Enforcement Security Task Forces, and Integrated Bonder
Enforcement Teams. Grant funding can only be used in proportion to the Federal man-
hour estimate, and only after funding for these activities from other Federal sources (i.e.,
FBI JTTF payments to State and local agencies) has been exhausted. Under no
circumstances should DHS grant funding be used to pay for costs already supported by
funding from another Federal source.
. Operational overtime costs. In support of efforts to enhance capabilities for detecting,
deterring, disrupting, and preventing acts oftenorism, operational overtime costs zue
allowable for increased security measures at critical infrastructure sites. SHSP or UASI
funds for organizational costs may be used to support select operational expenses
associated with increased security measures at critical infrastructure sites in the following
authorized categories:
- Backfil[ and overtime expenses for staffing State or Major Urban Area fusion
centers;
50
Appendix C-FY20l4 HSGP Funding Guidelines
- Hiring of contracted security for critical infrastructure sites;
- Participation in Regional Resiliency Assessment Program (RRAP) activities;
- Public safety overtime;
- Title 32 or State Active Duty National Guard deployments to protect critical
infrasffucture sites, including all resources that are part of the standard National
Guard deployment package (Note: Consumable costs, such as fuel expenses, are
not allowed except as part of the standard National Guard deployment package);
and
- Increased border security activities in coordination with CBP, as outlined in IB
135
bulletins,t.
SHSP or UASI funds may only be spent for operational overtime costs upon prior approval
provided in writing by the FEMA Adminishator.
Note: States with UASI jurisdictions can use funds retained at the State level to reimburse
eligible operational overtime expenses incurred by the State (per the above guidance limitations
and up to a maximum of 50 percent (50%) of the State share of the UASI grant). Any UASI
funds retained by the State must be used in direct support of the Urban Area. States must
provide documentation to the UAWG and FEMA upon request demonstrating how any UASI
funds retained by the State would directly support the Urban Area.
Equipment (SHSP and UASI)
The 2l allowable prevention, protection, mitigation, response, and recovery equipment
categories and equipment standards for HSGP are listed on the web-based version of the
Authorized Equipment List (AEL) on the Lessons Learned lnformation System at http://llis.gov/.
Unless otherwise stated, equipment must meet all mandatory regulatory and/or DHS-adopted
standards to be eligible for purchase using these funds. In addition, agencies will be responsible
for obtaining and maintaining all necessary certifications and licenses for the requested
equipment.
Grant funds may be used for the procurement of medical countermeasures. Procurement of
medical countermeasures must be conducted in collaboration with State/city/local health
departments who administer Federal funds from HHS for this purpose. Procurement must have a
sound threat based justification with an aim to reduce the consequences of mass casualty
incidents during the first crucial hours of a response. Prior to procuring pharmaceuticals,
grantees must have in place an inventory management plan to avoid Iarge periodic variations in
supplies due to coinciding purchase and expiration dates. Grantees are encouraged to enter into
rotational procurement agreements with vendors and distributors. Purchases of pharmaceuticals
must include a budget for the disposal of expired drugs within each fiscal year's the period of
performance for HSGP. The cost of disposal cannot be carried over to another FEMA grant or
grant period.
Training (SHSP and UASI)
Allowable training-related costs under HSGP include the establishment, support, conduct, and
attendance of training specifically identified under the SHSP and UASI programs and/or in
51
Appendix C-FY2014 HSGP Funding Guidelines
conjunction with emergency preparedness training by other Federal agencies (e.g., HHS and
DOT). Training conduoted using HSGP funds should address a performance gap identified
through an After Action Report/Improvement Plan (AAR/tr) or other assessments (e.9., National
Emergency Communications Plan INECP] Goal Assessments) and contribute to building a
capability that will be evaluated through a formal exercise. Any training or training gaps,
including those for vulnerable populations including children, the elderly, pregnant women, and
individuals with disabilities or access and functional needs, should be identified in the AAR rtr
and addressed in the State or Urban Area training cycle. Grantees are encouraged to use
existing haining rather than developing new courses. When developing new courses, gpntees
are encouraged to apply the Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation and Evaluation
model of instructional design (Course Development Tool) located at
ht tps : //www..fi r s tre sg) nde r tra i ni np. pov.
Exercises (SHSP and UASI)
Exercises conducted with FEMA support should be managed and executed in accordance with
HSEEP. HSEEP guidance for exercise design, development, conduct, evaluation, and
improvement planning is locatel at htlps : //www. llis. dhs. cqv/lrseep.
Maintenance and Sustainment (SHSP, UASI, and OPSG)
The use ofFEMA preparedness grant funds for maintenance contracts, warranties, repair or
replacement costs, upgrades, and user fees are allowable, as described in FEMA Policy FP 205-
402-125-l (http://www.Iema.oov/media-librarv/assets/documents/32474\ under all active and
future grant awards, unless otherwise noted. With the exception of maintenance plans purchased
incidental to the original purchase of the equipment, the period covered by a maintenanoe or
wananty plan must not exceed the period of performance of the specific grant funds used to
purchase the plan or warranty.
Grant funds are intended to support the Goal by funding projects that build and sustajn the core
capabilities necessary to prevent, protect against, mitigate the effects o{, respond to, and recover
from those threats that pose the greatest risk to the security ofthe Nation. In order to prolide
grantees the ability to meet this objective, the policy set forth in GPD's IB 379 (Guidance to
State Administrative Agencies to Expedite the Expenditure of Certain DHSIFEMA Grant
Funding) allows for the expansion of eligible maintenance and sustainment costs which must be
in l) direct suppo( of existing capabilities; (2) must be an otherwise allowable expenditure under
the applicable grant program; (3) be tied to one ofthe core capabilities in the five mission areas
contained within the Goal, and (4) shareable through the Emergency Management Assistance
Compact. Additionally, eligible costs must also be in support of equipment, training, and.critical
resources that have previously been purchased with either Federal grant or any other source of
funding other than DHS/IEMA preparedness grant program dollars.
Law Enforcement Terrorism Prevention Allowable Costs (SHSP and UASI)
Activities eligible for use of LETPA focused funds are outlined in the National Prevention
Framework (and where capabilities are shared with the protection mission area, the National
Protection FrameworiJr) located al http://www.femo.eov/national-planninglframeworks and
include:
52
Appendix C-FY2014 HSGP Funding Guidelines
. Maturation and enhancement ofdesignated State and major Urban Area fusion centers,
including information sharing and analysis, threat recognition, terrorist interdiction, and

provide grantees and sub-gantees with specialized expertise to improve their anergency plans
and planning. TA deliveries are designed specifically to improve and enhance the continuing
development of state and local emergency management aoross tle five mission areas of the
National Preparedness Goal and across all core capabilities. TA provides the opportunity to
engage emergency managem, emergency planners, and appropriate decision-makers in open
discussion ofoptions to improve plans and planning in light oftheir jurisdiction's needs. There is
no cost to approved jurisdictions for FEMA TA.
TA deliveries combine current emergency management best pmctices with practical
consideration of emerging trends, through discussion facilitated by FEMA contract specialists
and with the support of FEMA Region operational specialists. While the invitation of
participants is up to the requesting jurisdiction, FEMA encourages requesting jurisdictions to
64

progressive exercise series. Exercises conducted by States and Urban Areas may be used to
fulfill similar exercise requirements required by other gant progams. Grantees are encouraged
to invite representatives/planners involved with other federally-mandated or private exercise
activities. States and Urban Areas are encouraged to share, at a minimum, the multi-year
training and exercise schedule with those departnents, agencies, and organizations included in
the plan.
o Exercise Scenorios. The scenarios used in HscP-funded exercises must be based on the
StateAjrban Area's THIRA. The scenarios used in HSGP-funded exercises rnust focus
on testing capabilities, must be large enough in scope and size to exercise multiple
activities and warrant involvement from multiple jurisdictions and disciplines and non-
govemmental organizations, and take into account the needs and requirements for
individuals with disebilities. Exercise scenarios should align with priorities and
capabilities identified in the Multi-year Training and Exercise Plan.o Special Event Planning. Ifa State or Urban Area will be hosting a special event (e.g.,
Super Bowl, G-8 Summit), the special event planning should be considered as a training
or exercise activity for the purpose ofthe Multi-Year Training and Exercise Plan. The
State or Urban Arca should plan to use SHSP or UASI funding to finance training and
exercise activities in preparation for those events. States and Urban Areas should also
consider exercises at major venues (e.g., arenas, convention centers) that focus on
evacuations, communications, and command and oontrol.t Regional Exerclies. States should also anticipate participating in at least one Regional
Exercise annually, States must include all confirmed or planned special events in the
Multi-year Training and Exeroise Plan.o Exercise Evaluation and Improvenezl. Exercises should evaluate performance of

Appendix E - OPSG Operational Guidance
Appendix F is intended to provide operational guidance to applicants on the development of the
concept ofoperations and campaign planning, the tactical operation period and the reporting
procedures This also delineates specific roles and responsibilities, expectations for operations,
and performance measures. Successful execution ofthese objectives will promote situational
awareness among participating agencies and ensurc a rapid, fluid response to emerging border-
security conditions.
OPSG uses an integrated approach to address transnational criminal activity. It is
recommended that Federal, State, local, Tribal, and tenitorial partners establish and maintain an
OPSG Integrated Planning Team (trT) with representation from all participating law
enforcement agencies, co-chaired by representatives from CBP/BP, the SAA, and participating
law enforcement agencies' OPSG program repr€sentatives. U.S. Border Patrol will provide
routine monitoring and technical expertise to each participating agency. Each operation will be
reviewed for border-security value and approved by the corresponding sector's Chief Patrol
Agent or his/her designee.
All operational plans should be crafted in cooperation and coordination among Federal, State,
local, Tribal, and territorial parbrers. Consideration will be given to applications that are
coordinated across multiple jurisdictions. All applicants must coordinate with the CBP/BP
Sector Headquarters with geographic responsibility for the applicant's location in developing and
submitting an Operations Order with an embedded budget to the SAA.
As OPSG continues to evolve, several proven practices have been recognized, centered on short-
term, periodic operations in support of overarching near and long-term goals. A multi-step
process will be established through the area IPT, including a campaign plan and a cycle of
operations to ensure that OPSG partsrers maintain synergism and have a coordinated and
measurable impact on reducing boder-security risk.
I. Concept of Operations and Campaign Planning (Post Allocation Announcement/Pre-
. Award)
Thg overarching operational cycle involves three stages; application, concept ofoperations to
formulate a Campaign Plan and one or more tactical operational periods, which are all developed
by the IPT.
First Stage: Please refer to section X of the full FOA.
Second Stage (Post Award): After awards are announced participants will create and submit an
operations order that forms a campaiga plan and captures the initial, generalized-budgetary
intent to their IPT. The campaign plan should articulato the participant agency's long-term
border security objectives and goals desigaed to mitigate border-security risk.
't6
Appendix E - FY 2014 HSGP, OPSG Operational Guidance
Funds should be obligated as needed to target specific threats or vulnerabilities and ensure tlrat
OPSG usage is commensurate to the unique risk of each border region. This may require several
short-term operations that combine to form an ongoing operational cycle, ensuring that BP
commanders and State, looal, and Tribal agency partners reserve the flexibility to respond to the
ever-changing elements of border security.
The operations plan also will articulate the budgetary intent of how funds will be used
throughout the performance period. The operations plan will project planned expenditures in the
following categories: overtime, equipment, instruction, travel, maintenance, fuel, and
administrative funds. It can initiate the procurement of equipment, as well as state how much
the county intends to use for M&A while keeping funds for overtime or residual equipment
funds available for use as needed. If the recipient intends to spend more than 50% oftheir award
on overtime over the course ofthe performance period, requests for an overtime waiver would be
submitted at this time. The operations plan will meet both the SAA expectations to obligate the
funds within 45 days ofthe award announcement and the demands ofthe grant's operational
intent. Once the operations plan is approved, the area IPT will meet to initiate the last stage in
the planning process.
Third Stage: Once the grantee is ready to conduct operations, the area IPT will begin planning
tactical operations.
II. Tectical Operational Period
Operationat discipline is necessary for the success ofOPSG. Deliberate, adaptive, integrated,
and intelligence-driven planning is critical to conducting targeted enforcement operations
consistent with the objectives of the OPSG. By participating in the OPSG, the State, local, and
Tribal agencies agree to conduct operations designed to reduce border-security risk. Tactical
operations will be conducted on a periodic basis meeting the criteria ouflined below.
Tactical operational periods are composed of six critical elements: l) a pre-planning meeting
with the IPT; 2) specified beginning and ending dates; 3) are intelligence driven, with a nexus to
border security;4) use targeted enforcement. techniques; 5) have clearly stated objectives; and 6)
conclude with an after-action meeting. A campaign should involve several tactical operational
periods. These periods require deliberate on-going planning to ensure command, staff, and unit
activities synchronize to current and future operations. The cyclical nature of the process will
ensure OPSG activities align with the fluctuating border-sccurity threats and vulnerabilities. Key
planners should recogrize that shorter, frequent tactical operational periods increase the
flexibility and leverage gained through OPSG funding.
The IPT should leverage information provided by the fusion center, Border Intelligence Centers
or other local intelligence center, when possible, and establish a common operational vision. The
BP sector's Chief Patrol Agent, or his/her desigaee, will ensure that the information or
intelligence has a clear nexus to border security. Intelligence will be shared and vetted for
border security value, driving the focus ofoperations. The tactical operational period should
focus on specific targets of interest or specific areas of interest identified by the IPT. Once
intelligence-driven targets are identified, the IPT will decide on operational objectives that
77
Appendix E - FY 2014 HSGP, OPSG Operational Guidance
reflect the intended impact of operations. The objectives should outline how the operation will
deter, deny, degrade, or dismantle the operational capacity of the targeted transnational criminal
organizations.
The frequency and duration ofeach tactical operational period should be predicated by local risk
factors. The tactical operational period may combine to develop an operational cycle that is
synchronous or asynchronous, connected, or unconnected, depending on security conditions and
the IPT's intent. Each tactical operational period will begin on a predetermined date and end on
a predetermined date, but the dates may be subject to change commensurate with emerging
security conditions. The starting date of the operational period should be established to allow
sufficient time for the order to be submitted and approved through BP Headquarters and
FEMA. Once approved, the operation can be conducted.

IU. Reporting Procedures
Participation in OPSG requires accurate, consistent, and timely reporting of how funds are used,
and how the State, local and Tribal agencies' operations have impacted border security through
the mitigation of threat or vulnerability and the overall reduction of risk. Reporting will focus
on: monitoring program performance; determining the level of integration and information
sharing; and developing best practices for future operations. To ensure consistent reporting each
State, local and Tribal agency will identiff a single point of contact to represent their agency as a
member of the IPT and to coordinate the submission of reports or execute other aspects of the
grant.
Attachment A, the Daily Activity Report is to be used to submit the ongoing results and outputs
from OPSG operations conducted. The Daily Activity Report will be submitted to the BP sector,
if required, or to the participating agency's OPSG coordinator. The agency coordinator will
compile the results from each Daily Activity Report at the end of the month and submit a
,onihly report to the BP sector. The monthly report is due to sector by the lOs day of the
following month. The BP sector will compile the results from the participating agencies and
submit the results to BP Headquarters by the l5th of each following month.
In addition to the ongoing reporting of outputs, participants will be required to submit After
Action Reports to participating agencies and the BP within l0 days of any completed operation,
after convening a debrief meeting. The After Action Report should carefully articulate outcomes
and outputs, as well as how the results of the operation compare with the objectives identified
79
Appendix E - FY 2014 HSGP, OPSG Operational Guidance
during the pre-planning meeting. Failure to submit the After Action report in a timely manner
may prevent the approval of future operations requests.
IV. Operational roles and responsibilities
ln order to achieve unity ofeffoG it is essential that each participant know the roles and
responsibilities within the IPT.
The BP sector's ChiefPatrol Agent, or his/her designee, will:
. Coordinate and chair the area Integrated Planning Team's meetings. Coordinate with all interested and eligible State, local, and Tribal agencies in the sector's
area of operation during the open period ofthe OPSG application process by:
- Assisting applicants in completing the operations planning portion of the
application, which is similar to the Operations Order used by the Border Patrol2
- Forwarding the approved operation portion of the application to CBP/BP
Headquarters, as well as to the SAA to complete the application process set by
FEMAiGPD
r Following the announcement of grant awards, coordinate and chair a meeting with State,
local, and Tribal agencies that received OPSG awards to develop an individualized
campaign plan. This includes:
- Working with State, local, and Tribal agencies, along with other Federal law
enforcement agencies to determine the dates, focus, and needs of each tactical
operational period, ensuring that each operation has a nexus to border security;
- Receiving the first periodic operations order from the State, local, and Tribal
agencies and ensuring that the operation is conducted as outlined in Section I;
- Monitoring and supporting the Operational Cycle throughout the performance
period;
- Ensuring Daily Activity and After Action Reports are submitted by State, local
and Tribal agencies in the proper format and within the established timeframes;
- Providing instruction, when possible, to State, local and Tribal agencies regarding
techniques, methods and hends used by transnational criminal organizations in
the area; and
- Providing a single point of contact to participants as a subject matter expert in
OPSG that can coordinate, collect, and report operational activities within the
established reporting procedures.
The State, local or Tribal agency lead, or their designee, will:
o Coordinate with the SAA on all grant management matters, including but not limited to
the development and review ofoperations orders, expenditure of funds, allowable costs,
reporting requirements;

Appendix A. Guidance for Supporting Photographs for EIIP Grant Submissions
Photographs are a vital component ofthe EHP rcview process and add an additional level of
understanding about the nature and scope ofthe project. They also provide pre-project documentation of
site conditions. Please follow the guidance provided below when preparing photographs for your EHP
submission. The following pages provide examples ofbest practices used in e$lier EHP submissions.
Minimum requiremeots for photographs.
l. Photographs should be in color.
2. Label all photographs with the name offacility, location (city/county, state) and physical location
(physical address or latitude-longitude).
3. Label the photographs to clearly illustsate relevant features of the proj€ct, such as location of instalted
features (e.g., cameras, fences, sirens, antennas, generators) and ground disturbance- See examples
below.
4. Identi! ground disturbance. Adding graphics to a digital photograph is a means to illushate the siz€,
scope and location of ground disturbing activities.
Best Practices
L Provide photographs in a separate file.
2. Place no more than 2 pictues per page.
3. Compressing pictures files (such as with Microsoft Picture Manager)r or saving the file in pdf format
will reduce the size ofthe file and facilitate e-mail submissions.
4. Identifr the photograph file with the project namc so that it car be matched to the conesponding
FEMA EHP screening form.
5. Maximum file size for enclosures should not exceed 12 MB. Ifth€ total size offiles for an EHP
submission exceeds l2 MB, send the submission in multiplc e-mails.
6. If necessary, send additional photographs or data in supplemental e-mails. Ple{se use the same e-mail
subject line with the additional label: I ofx, 2 ofx, . .. x ofx.
Options for Creating Photogrrphsl. Obtain an aerial photo. There arc multiple online sources for aerial photographs.
2. For the aerial photo, use the scrcen capture feature (Ctrl + Print Screen keys) and copy the image to
photo editing software, such as Paint, or PhotoShop.l Use that software to crop the image so the
photo has the content necessary.
3. Open PowerPoint, or other graphics-oriented software, and paste the aerial or ground-level
photograph on the canvas.
4. Use drawing tools, such as line drawing and shapes, to indicate tlre location of project features (for
example: fencing, lighting, sirens, antennali, cameras, generators).
5. lnsert text to label the features and to label the photograph.
6. Use drawing tools to identiry ground-disturbing activities (if applicable).
7. Save the file with the project name or gmnt number so that it can be appropriately matched to the
conesponding FEMA EHP screening form. Include this file with the EHP screening when submitting
the project.

RE:
Finance Department
Honorable Mayor and City Council
William Fox, Finance Directo , olV"f
Approval of Resolution for Termination of Interest Rate Swap Agreements
Recommendation
It is recommended to the City Council:
A. Find that approval of the resolution to terminate the two interest rate swap contracts entered
into December 2004 is a government fiscal activity which does not involve any commitment
to any specific project which may result in a potentially significant physical impact on the
environment and is therefore not a "project" as defined by Califomia Environmental Quality
Act ("CEQA") Guidelines section 15378 and not subject to CEQA review. Furthermore,
even if it were a project, it would be exempt under CEQA in accordance with Section
15061(bX3), the general rule that CEQA only applies to projects that may have an effect on
the environment; and
B. Approve the resolution for the termination of the two outstanding 2004 irterest rate swap
agreements with Morgan Stanley Capital Services LLC (Morgan Stanley) and Deutsche
Bank AG (Deutsche Bank). The swap agreements are being terminated in conjunction with
the issuance of 2015 Electric System Revenue Taxable Series A Bonds in the par amount of
$110.3 million. A portion of the 2015 Electric System Revenue Taxable Series A Bonds
proceeds will finance the costs of terminating the two existing interest rate swap agreements.
Backsround
-
On June 16, 2015, the City Council approved a resolution for the issuance of 2015 Electric
System Revenue Taxable Series A Bonds in the par amount of $l10.3 million to provide funds to
(a) refund a portion of the City's outstanding 2009 Series A Electric System Revenue Bonds, (b)
finance costs of terminating two existing swap agreements by reimbursement of certain capital
improvements from the electric system previously paid from the Light & Power Fund, (c) fund a
deposit to the Debt Service Reserve Fund, and (d) pay cost of issuance of the 2015 Series Bonds.
DATE:JuIy 7,2015
In order to accomplish the termination of the two existing interest rate swap agreements, the
City's Financial Advisors, PFM, and Bond Counsel, Orrick, Herrington & Sutcliffe entered into
negotiations with Morgan Stanley and Deutsche Bank to terminate the two interest rate swap
agreements. An important aspect of the termination of the two interest rate swap agreements is
that newly enacted mandated regulatory compliance reporting requirements are required to be
incorporated into the termination contracts that previously did not exist in 2004 when the interest
rate swap agreements were originally entered into. The interest rate swap agreements are subject
to Federal reporting following the guidelines established by The Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform
and Consumer Protection Act, commonly referred to as simply "Dodd-Frank". Dodd Frank was
enacted to lower risk in various parts of the United States financial system and to prevent the
recurrence of events that caused the 2008 financial crisis. The interest rate swap agreement with
Deutsche Bank has additional regulatory reporting requirements under the European Market
lnfrastructure Regulation (EMIR). The EMIR is a European Union regulation designed to
increase the stability of the derivative markets throughout the European countries.
As of July 1,2015, the market value of the Morgan Stanley swap agreement is 522.7 million and
the Deutsche Bank swap agreement is $13.2 million, for a total of $35.9 million. The termination
of the two agreements will result in mitigating interest rate volatility and provide more
predictability in the City's financial structure. The market value of the agreements changes daily
with market interest rates. Thus, the actual market value will not be known until the closing.
However, the final expected payoff amount is not expected to significantly change between now
and the scheduled closing date of July 21,2015.
Council Policv Consideration
This requested action supports the prior action taken by City Council on June 16,2015 with the
approval of the issuance of 2015 Electric System Revenue Taxable Series A Bonds in the par
amount of $110.3 million. A key component of that approval of the bond refunding was to
terminate the two existing interest rate swap agreements.
Fiscal Impact
The retirement of the two existing interest rate swap agreements is one element of the issuance of
the $110.3 million 2015 Series A bond refunding transaction. As previously reported on June 16,
2015, the forecasted reduction in cash outflow over the next 7 years is expected to be in the
range of $12.3 million annually, which fluctuates depending on the level of debt service each
year. However, after 7 years, the new refunded debt service over an additional 5 year period is
expected to be increased approximately $21.4 million per year. After that, there will be lower
debt service payments. The net impact of the financing is $7.7 million additional debt and
interest costs over the next 27 year period. The new debt structure provides a smooth
transitioning to stabilize customer electric rates so that future increases can be lower and more
predictable. The retirement of the two interest rate swap agreements eliminates the market rate
volatility that currently exists in the City's financial structure.

DB and the Client hereby agree as follows:
PART I. PORTFOLIO RECONCILIATION AND DISPUTE RESOLUTION
(l) Agreement to Reconcile Portfolio Data
The parties agree to reconcile portfolios as required by the Portfolio Reconciliation fusk Mitigation
Techniques.
DB shall be the Portfolio Data Sending Entity. The Client shall be:
(a) One-way Delivery of Portfolio Data.
If one party is a Portfolio Data Sending Entity and the other party is a Portfolio Data Receiving
Entity:
(i) on each Data Delivery Date, the Portfolio Data Sending Entity will provide Portfolio Data to
the Portfolio Data Receiving Entity;
(ii) on each PR Due Date, the Portfolio Data Receiving Entity will perform a Data
Reconciliation;
(iii) if the Portfolio Data Receiving Entity identifies one or more discrepancies which such party
determines, acting reasonably and in good faith, are material to the rights and obligations of
the parties in respect of one or more Relevant Transaction(s), it will notiry the other party in
writing as soon as reasonably practicable and the parties will consult with each other in an

attempt to resolve any such discrepancies in a timely fashion for so long as such
discrepancies remain outstanding, using, without limitation, any applicable updated
reconciliation data produced during the period in which such discrepancy remains
outstanding; and
(iv) if the Portfolio Data Receiving Entity does not notifu the Portfolio Data Sending Entity that
the Portfolio Data contains discrepancies by 4p.m. local time in the place of business of the
Portfolio Data Sending Entity on the fifth Joint Business Day following the later of the PR
Due Date and the date on which the Portfolio Data Sending Entity provided such Portfolio
Data to the Portfolio Data Receiving Entity, the Portfolio Data Receiving Entity will be
deemed to have affirmed such Portfolio Data.
(b) Two-way Exchange of Portfolio Data.
If both parties are Portfolio Data Sending Entities:
(i) on each Data Delivery Date, each party will provide Portfolio Data to the other party;
(ii) on each PR Due Date, each party will perform a Data Reconciliation; and
(iii) if a party identifies one or more discrepancies which such party determines, acting
reasonably and in good faith, are material to the rights and obligations of the parties in

agreement not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed and for this purpose the parties agree, without
limitation, that it will not be unreasonable for a party to withhold agreement where agreement would
result in the other party having different designations in respect of such party and one or more
Affiliates of such party). If, as a result of any such change of designation, both parties will be
Portfolio Data Receiving Entities, Part I(l Xc) will apply.
(b) If a party believes, acting reasonably and in good faith, that the parties are required to perform Data
Reconciliation at a greater or lesser frequency than that being used by the parties at such time, it will

service provider.
DB may use a third party (including TriOptima AB) as its agent and/or third party service provider for the
purposes ofperforming all or part ofthe actions under Parts I(l) and I(2).
(4) Dispute Identification and Resolution Procedure
The parties agree that they will use the following procedure to identiry and resolve Disputes between them:
(a) either party may identify a Dispute by sending a Dispute Notice to the other party;
(b) on or following the Dispute Date, the parties will consult in good faith in an attempt to resolve the
Dispute in a timely manner, including, without limitation, by exchanging any relevant information
andby identifuing and using any Agreed Process which can be applied to the subject of the Dispute
o., *h"re no such Agreed Process exists or the parties agree that such Agreed Process would be
unsuitable, determining and applying a resolution method for the Dispute; and
(c) with respect to any Dispute that is not resolved within five Joint Business Days of the Dispute Date,
refer issues internally to appropriately senior members of staff of such party or of its Affiliate,
adviser or agent in addition to actions under (b) immediately above (including actions under any
Agreed Process identified and used under (b) immediately above) and to the extent such referral has
not occurred as a result of action under (b) immediately above (including any Agreed Process).

Process (whether or not any action under Part I(4) has occuned) or otherwise to pursue any dispute
resolution process in respect ofany such issue or discrepancy (whether or not any action under Part l(4) has
occurred).
(7) Remedies for Breach

Property and Casualty Insurance Placements for Fiscal Year 2015-16
Recommendation
It is recommended that the City Council:
l. Find that approval of the placement of property and casualty insurance for fiscal year
2015-16 is exempt under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) in
accordance with Sections 15060(cX3), 15378(bX4), and 15378(bX5). This is because the
activity of authorizing the placement of insurance will not result in direct or indirect
physical changes in the environment and, therefore, is not a "project," as defined in
Section 15378 of the CEQA Guidelines; and
2. Authorize the City Administrator to bind the City for the annual insurance coverage for
f,rscal year 2015-16, provided the total annual premiums to be paid shall not exceed
$1,018,600 and $15,000 for loss mitigation services related to Cyber liability coverage
for a total of $1,033,600. This includes the renewal of policies for excess liability
insurance, errors & omissions, property, excess workers' compensation, crime, pollution
liability, and environmental site liability, and the addition of cyber liability coverages
with the related Loss Mitigation Services.
Backsround
Two years ago the City went through a request for proposal process as part of the good
govemance reform and selected a new insurance broker, Aon Insurance Services. Over this past
year they have working diligently with the City's Director of Finance to identifu appropriate
coverage types, coverage amounts, and self-insured retentions (deductibles) in conjunction with
the annual renewal process. This analysis included working with insurance underwriters from
our existing insurance carriers and potential new ones were solicited. This process included
providing requested financial and claims information to insurance carriers to help obtain required
coverage at a competitive price and terms. In addition, professional property and equipment site
assessments were done to make sure coverage limits are appropriate and that safe conditions
exist. The insurance negotiation and placement process was concluded on Jtne24,20l5.
The current schedule of coverage is summarized on the next page. The final premium amount of
$1,018,600 is less than the budgeted amount of $1,196,203. The overall result is a savings of
gl77 ,603. This overall savings includes the commencement of new coverage for Cyber liability,
with a policy limit of $3 Million at an annual premium of $43,400. Without the Cyber liability
coverage, the overall savings would have been $221,003. Cyber liability coverage steps in when
the City's information technology devices and networks have been compromised. Initially the
Cyber insurance policy makes the policy holder monetarily whole, but then it goes on to assist
their customers who are also impacted. This coverage includes accessing credit reporting
agencies to lock down reports. Some of the more recent well known cases where cyber-attacks
have occurred include the IRS, Anthem Blue Cross, Target, Home Depot, and Sony Pictures.
For example, in the case of Anthem Blue Cross, injured parties are given two free years of credit
monitoring, all of which is being underwritten by their cyber insurance coverage. According to
the City's Aon Insurance representative, approximately 70%o of their municipal clients are now
carrying this coverage, due to the significant increased exposure, where only three years ago it
was less than ljoh.

Cvber Liability Loss Mitigation Services
The new Cyber liability insurance carrier provides loss mitigation services to get clients prepared
to address cyber- attacks. These services focus on the various types of attacks that can be made.
As result there are six types of tests that are conduct to ensure that vulnerabilities are mitigated.
These six tests are provided by the insurance carrier using technical consultants and the fees paid
result in no insurance commissions and have been discounted to encourage their utilization. The
six tests are made available at a cost of $3,000 each for a total of $18,000. However, one test is
provided at no cost as part of the insurance renewal package. Thus, the net cost is $15,000 for a
thorough vulnerability assessment.
Justification
Since the City completed a competitive selection process to identify Aon Insurance Services as
its insurance broker, their professional expertise has been relied upon for identiffing the required
insurance policy types, deductibles, and coverage amounts. They in turn went into the market
place and solicited quotes from insurance carriers to ensure competitive rates are obtained. On
certain coverages up to 16 insurance carriers were solicited. These policy coverages have been
determined to be prudent and appropriate to safeguard the City. Insurance contracts are exempt
from the competitive bidding requirements, pursuant to Vernon Municipal Code $2.17.12(A)
(8).
Fiscal Impact
The total fiscal cost for insurance coverage is projected not to exceed $1,018,600 and $15,000
for loss mitigation services for a total of $1,033,600. The approved budgeted funds for Fiscal
Year 2015-16 is $1,196,203. Thus this authorization is less than the annual approved budgeted
amount. As a result, there are sufficient funds that have been budgeted for fiscal year 2015-16.

(CEQA) in accordance with CEQA Guidelines Section 15061(bX3), the general rule
that CEQA only applies to projects that may have a significant effect on the
environment, because the agreement does not have an impact; and
B. Approve and authorize the execution of a services agreement with Northwest Electrical
Services, LLC (NWE), in substantially the same form submitted herewith, for a
Control System upgrade of two existing aero-derivative Allison Gas Turbines. The
proposed contract includes compensation for design, equipment, fabrication, and
testing, equating to a grand total compensation amount not-to-exceed $662,330.16 over
the three (3) year term of the agreement
Backsround
Vernon Gas & Electric (VG&E) owns and operates two (2) Rolls-Royce 57lK Allison industrial
aero-derivative gas turbines used for power generation. These two turbines provide a value to
the City of Vernon in the form of Non-Spin Ancillary Service but, more importantly, fulfill a
portion of the City's Resource Adequacy (RA) requirements. These generators are known as
peakers and are available on a stand-by basis; however, when they are called to service, a less
than ten (10) minute start to full load is required for acceptance by the California Independent
System Operator (CAISO). The RA fulfillment is based on reaching full load (about 6 MW's
per turbine) in less than ten (10) minutes after receipt of a Dispatch notice by CAISO. If the
turbine does not reach its full load within the required time limit, it is considered a "Failed Stan
Event" which is unacceptable to the CAISO. As a result of a failed start, the City of Vemon may
incur a penalty by the CAISO, and the RA payment to the City of Vernon is also at risk. An

aging system with manual controls compounds the potential for system failure. The City,
therefore, is taking measures to replace the existing control system with a new design to
minimize the likelihood of system failure and RA penalties. The Allison Turbine System is a
critical component within the Gas & Electric Department and its reliability is imperative to
VG&E's successful operation.
Staff requested Council approval to issue a notice inviting bids for "tumkey" design,
engineering, procurement of any and all required equipment, and construction services to
guarantee a safe, reliable, functional control system permitting startup and synchronization for
each of the two existing aero-derivative gas turbines used for power generation. On March 3,
2015, the City Council authorized City staff to issue a Notice Inviting Bids for the critical
upgrade.
The City opened bids publicly on April 9,2015 and received one (l) bid in response to the
Notice Inviting Bids. Upon review of the singular proposal and the required specifications
detailed within the bid package, it was determined that the bidder did not meet all criteria and,
therefore, was categorized as nonresponsive. On May 5,2015, City Council authorized staff to
reject the single bid received and reissue the Notice Inviting Bids. On May 6, 2015 staff
properly publicized the Notice Inviting Bids for the Allison Turbine Control System upgrade,
pursuant to Vemon Municipal Code section $2.17.20. The City received a total of three (3)
timely bids from qualified companies. A panel of City staff was assembled to evaluate and
select the lowest and most responsive bidder to perform the Allison Turbine Control System
upgrade. After a thorough review of proposals, Northwest Electrical, LLC (NWE) was selected
as the desired recipient of the bid award.
NWE's proposed scope of work consists of delivering turnkey design, equipment, fabrication,
testing and a ready-in-service control system upgrade for two existing aero-derivative gas
turbines, which is aptly aligned with the City's requirements. In light of the foregoing, it is
recommended that Council approve the award of a contract to NWE for a three (3) year term.
Fiscal Impact
The proposed amount for the service contract with NWE totals $662,330.16 for a three (3) year
term and the expenditure has been incorporated into the VG&E capital budget for fiscal year
2015-2016.

between the Contractor, Subcontractor and such laborers. Thus, an employer must establish a fixed
workweek and an established payday. On each payday, each worker must receive all sums due at the
end of the preceding workweek and must be provided with an itemized wage statement.
3. Classafications - Cify shall require that any class of laborers or mechanics, including apprentices and
trainees, which are not listed in the General Wage Determinations and which are to be employed under
this Contract, shall be classified conformably to such wage determinations. In the event the City does
not concur in the Contractor's proposed classification or reclassification of a particular class of laborers
and mechanics (including apprentices and trainees) to be used, the question, accompanied by the
recommendation of the City's Project Representative, shall be referred to the State Director of Industrial
Relations for determination.
4. Fringe B€nefit Cash Equivalent - City shall require, whenever the minimum wage rate prescribed for
a class of laborers or mechanics includes a fringe benefit which is not expressed as an hourly wage and
the Contractor is obligated to pay a cash equivalent of such a fringe benefit, an hourly cash equivalent
thereof must be established. In the event the interested parties cannot agree upon cash equivalent of
the fringe benefit, the questions, accompanied by the recommendation of the Clfy's Project
Representative, shall be referred to the State Director of Industrial Relations for determination.
C. Penalty for Prevailing Wage Rate Underpayment
Pursuant to Labor Code 51775, the Contractor must, as a penalty, forfeit Fifty Dollars ($50.00) to the City for
each calendar day or portion thereof, for each worker paid less than the prevailing wage rates as determined by
the Director of the Department of Industrial Relations for such work or craft in which such worker is employed
for the Work by the Contractor or by any Subcontractor, of any tier, in connection with the Work. The
difference between prevailing wage rates and the amount paid to each worker each calendar day, or portion
thereof, for which each worker paid less than the prevailing wage rate, must be paid to each worker by the
Contractor.
D. withholding
The City shall upon its own action or upon written request of an authorized representative of the Department of
Labor or DIR, withhold or cause to be withheld from the Contractor under this Contract so much of the accrued
payments or advances as may be considered necessary to pay laborers and mechanics, including apprentices,
trainees, and helpers, employed by the Contractor or any Subcontractor the full amount of wages required by
the Contract. In the event of failure to pay any laborer or mechanic, including any apprentice, trainee, or
helper, employed or working on the site of the Work, all or part of the wages required by the Contract, the City
may, after written notice to the Contractor, take such action as may be necessary to cause the suspension of
any further payment, advance, or guarantee of funds until such violations have ceased.
E, Certified Payroll Records and Basic Payroll Records
The Contractor and Subcontractors of any tier must maintain Certified Payroll Records and "Basic Payroll
Records", defined as time cards, front and back copies of canceled checks, cash receipts, trust fund forms, daily
logs, employee sign-in sheets, accounting ledgers, tax forms and/or any other record maintained for the
purposes of reporting payroll, during the course of the Work and must preserve them for a period of three (3)
years after completion of the Project for all trades workers executing the Work of the Contract. Certified Payroll
Records must be submitted at the times designated in Paragraph F below or upon request as described in
Paragraph G below. City reserves the right to require Contractor to routinely submit Basic Payroll Records may
be requested by the City at any time and must be provided within ten (10) calendar days following the receipt
of the request.
F. Submittal of Certified Payroll Records
Pursuant to Labor Code 51775, the Contractor and each Subcontractor of any tier must maintain an accurate,
weekly payroll record showing the employee full name, address, social security number, work classiflcation,
amount paid per hour, straight time, overtime and holiday hours worked each day and weekly totals, the actual
per diem wages paid to each person employed for the Work, and the gross/net wages paid for this Project/all
projects, as well as the Contractor name and address, Project name and location, and dates of payroll. If
payments are made to any third party trust, funds or plans for health and welfare, pension or vacation trusts,
those payments must be stated on the Certified Payroll Record. The basic wage rate paid per hour plus the
employer contributions for benefits, including training fund contributions, must at least equal the prevailing
wage rate for that classification.
The Contractor must maintain and submit its Certified Payroll Records and those of its SubcontractoB. City
reserves the right to require Contractor to submit to the City each week, no later than seven (7) calendar days
after the payday for the week covered, the Certified Payroll Records of Contractor and its Subcontractors of
every tier. If there is no Work on a given week or on a given day, the Certified Payroll Record must indicate "no
work" for that week or day(s). The Certified Payroll Records must account for each day of the week including
Saturdays, Sundays and holidays. Contractor and Subcontractors of every tier must write "final" on the last
submitted Certified Payroll Record for the Project.
The Certified Payroll Records must be verified by a written declaration made by a person with authority to
represent the reporting entity, under penalty of pedury, that the information contained in the payroll record is
true and correct and that the reporting entity has complied with the requirements of California Labor Code
551771. 1811, and 1815 for any Work performed by his, her or its employees on the Project.
Contractor agrees that submission of Certified Payroll Records as well as all related or subsequent requests for
supporting document made by City shall be a condition precedent to Contractor's receipt of a progress, final, or
retention payment. The City shall withhold any portion of the progress, flnal, or retention payment up to and
including the entire payment until the Certified Payroll Records requirement is met by the Contractor or its
Subcontractor. If the Contractor or any Subcontractor is determined to have failed to pay workers in
compliance with the applicable prevailing wage sections of the Labor Code, the City shall continue to withhold
progress, final. or retention payments until sufficient funds have been withheld for payment of wages to
workers and all applicable penalties.
G, Making Ceftified Payroll Records Available Upon Request
Pursuant to Labor Code 51776, in addition to its obligation to deliver certifled payroll records to the City on a
weekly basis as set forth above, the Contractor must also make payroll records available for inspection at all
reasonable hours at the principal office of the Contractor on the following basis: (i) a certified copy of an
employee's payroll record must be made available for inspection or furnished to such employee or his/her
authorized representative on reques! (ii) a certified copy of all payroll records must be made available for
inspection or furnished upon request to the City, the Division of Labor Standards Enforcement and the Division
of Apprenticeship Standards of the Department of Industrial Relations; (iii) a certified copy of payroll records
must be made available upon request to the public for inspection or copies thereof made; provided, however,
that a request by the public must be made through either the City, the Division of Apprenticeship Standards, or
the Division of Labor Standards Enforcement. If the requested payroll records have not been previously
provided to the City, the Division of Apprenticeship Standards or the Division of Labor Standards Enforcement,
the requesting party must, prior to belng provided the records, reimburse the cost of preparation by the
Contractor, Subcontractors and the entity through which the request was made; and the public may not be
given access to such records at the principal office of the Contractor; (iv) the Contractor must file a certified
copy of the payroll records with the entity that requested such records within ten (10) calendar days after
receipt of a written request; (v) any copy of records made available for inspection as copies and furnished upon
request to the public or any public agency by the City, the Division of Apprenticeship Standards or the Division
of Labor Standards Enforcement shall be marked or obliterated in such a manner as to prevent disclosure of an
individual's name, address and social security number. The name and address of the Contractor or any
Subcontractor, of any tier, performing a part of the Work must not be marked or obliterated. The Contractor
must inform the City of the location of payroll records, including the street address, City and county and must,
within five (5) Working Days, provide a notice of a change or location and address.
H, Forfeiture for Failure to Comply with Written Record Request Laws
The Contractor or Subcontractor shall have ten (10) calendar days in which to comply, subsequent to receipt of
written request regarding Certified Payroll Records or Basic Payroll Records. In the event Contractor or a
Subcontractor fails to strictly comply after such 10-day period, the Contractor or Subcontractor shall, as a
penalfy to the City, forfeit Twenty-Five Dollars ($25.00) for each calendar day, or portion thereof, for each
worker, until strict compliance is effectuated. Upon the request of the Division of Apprenticeship Standards or
the Division of Labor Standards Enforcement, these penalties shall be withheld from any portion of the Contract
Price then or thereafter due the Contractor. A Contractor is not subject to a penalty assessment pursuant to
this paragraph due to the failure of a Subcontractor to comply with this section.
I. Hours of Work
1. Limits on Hours of work - Pursuant to Labor Code 51810, eight (8) hours of labor shall constitute a
legal day's work. Pursuant to Labor Code 51811, the time of service of any worker employed at any
time by the Contractor or by a Subcontractor, of any tier, upon the Work or upon any part of the Work,
is limited and restricted to eight (8) hours during any one calendar day and fofi (40) hours during any
one calendar week, except as hereafter provided. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions, Work
performed by employees of Contractor or any Subcontractor, of any tier, in excess of eight (8) hours per
day and forty (40) hours during any one week, shall be permitted upon compensation for all hours
worked in excess of eight (8) hours per day at not less than one and one-half (1yr) times the basic rate
of pay.
2. Penalty for Excess Hours - Pursuant to Labor Code 551813 and 1815, the Contractor shall pay to the
City a penalty of Twenty-five Dollars ($25.00) for each worker employed in the execution of the Contract
by the Contractor or any Subcontractor, of any tier, for each calendar day during which such worker is
required or permitted to work more than eight (8) hours in any calendar day and forty (40) hours in any
one calendar week, in violation of the provisions of the California Labor Code, unless compensation to
the worker so employed by the Contractor is not less than one and one-half (1y2) times the basic rate of
pay for all hours worked in excess of eight (8) hours per day.
3. Contractor Responsibility For Cost of Excess Hours - Any Work performed by workers necessary
to be performed after regular working hours or on Sundays or other holidays must be performed without
adjustment to the Contract Price or any other additional expense to the City.
l. Responsibility for Subcontractors' Payment of Prevailing wages
Pursuant to Labor Code 5t774, the Contractor is responsible for ensuring that all Subcontractors of any tier
comply with requirements for payment of prevailing wages. Contractor is responsible for Labor Code violations
by Subcontractors of any tier. The agreement executed between the Contractor and each Subcontractor must
contaan a copy of the provisions of Labor Code 55 t777, 7775, t777.5, l8l3 and 1815, at a minimum.
Contractor must monitor each Subcontractor's payment of prevailing wage rates. Upon becoming aware of the
failure of any Subcontractor of any tier to pay its workers the specified prevailing wage, the Contractor must
diligently take action to halt and rectiry the failure, including, without limitation, retaining sufficient funds due to
the Subcontractor to cover the underpayment. Before making final payment to any Subcontractor, the
Contractor must obtain an affidavit from the Subcontractor, signed under penalty of perjury, which states that
the Subcontractor has paid the specified, determined prevailing wage rate to its employees for the Project, as
well as any amounts due pursuant to Labor Code 51813, Contractor must provide copies of such affidavits to
the City and provide Contractor's affidavit that it has paid the specified, determined prevailing wage rate to its
employees for the Project, as well as any amounts due under Labor Code $1813.
K. Statement of Employer Payments
Within five (5) calendar days of signing the Contract or Subcontract, as applicable, the Statement of Employer
Payments (DSLE Form PW 25) must be completed and submitted to the City by each Contractor and
Subcontractor who pays benefits to a third party trust, plan or fund for health and welfare beneflts, vacation
funds or makes pension contributions. The form must contain, for each worker classification, the fund or trust
name, address, administrator, and amount per hour contributed and frequency of contributions. Training fund
contributions must also be reported on this form. In February and August of each year during the Project, the
Contractor and Subcontractors of any tier must verify changes in wage rates for any trade classifications used
on the Project. Thereafter, Contractor and its Subcontractors must submit a new Statement of Employer
Payments to the City which reflects any changes in wages and benefits.
L. Apprentices
1. Apprenticeship Committee Contract Award Information - Pursuant to Labor Code 97777.5 and
Tltle I California Code of Regulations 5230, Contractor and Subcontractors of any tier who are not
already approved to train by an apprenticeship program sponsor must, within ten (10) calendar days of
signing the Contract or Subcontract, as applicable, but in any event prior to the first day in which the
Contractor or Subcontractor has workers employed on the Project, submit contract award information.
This information may be a Public Works Contract Award Information form (DAS form 140). The
contract award information must be provided to the appropriate local apprenticeship committees whose
geographic area of operation include the area of the Project and can supply apprentices to the Project.
Contractor and Subcontractors must also submit a copy of the form to the City which must include, in
addition to other information, an estimate of journeymen hours to be performed under the Contract or
Subcontract, the number of apprentices to be employed, and the approximate dates the apprentices will
be employed. Failure to provide contract award information, which is known by the Contractor or
Subcontractor, shall be deemed to be a continuing violation for the duration of the Contract.
2, Employment of Apprentices - Labor Code 97777.5 and -Iltle I California Code of Regulations 55200
et seq. provide detailed requirements for employing apprentices on public work. The responsibility of
complying with Section U77.5 and the regulations lies exclusively with the Contractor. When the
Contractor of Subcontractor employs workers in any Apprenticeable Craft or Trade, the Contractor and
Subcontractor must employ apprentices in at least the ratio set forth in Labor Code Section 1777.5.
Every apprentice employed to perform any of the Work must be paid the prevailing rate of per diem wages
for apprentices in the trade to which such apprentice is registered, and such individual must be employed
only for the work of the craft or trade to which such individual is registered.
Only apprentices, as defined in California Labor Code $3077, who are in training under apprenticeship
standards and written apprenticeship agreements under California Labor Code 553070 et seq. are eligible to
be employed for the Work. The employment and training of each apprentice shall be in accordance with
either of the following:
(1) The apprenticeship standards and apprentice agreemenb under which such apprentice is training; or
(2) The rules and regulations of the California Apprenticeship Council, including regulation Section 230.1
(3), which requires that apprentices employed on public projects can only be assigned to perform work of
the craft or trade to which the apprentice is registered and that the apprentices must at all times work with
or under the direct supervision of journeyman/men.
3. Apprenticeship Certificate and Request for Dispatch of Apprentices
a, When the Contractor or any Subcontractor of any tier in performing any of the Work employs
workers in any Apprenticeable Craft or Trade, as defined in Paragraph L(4), the Contractor and
such Subcontractor may apply to the Joint Apprenticeship Committee administering the
apprenticeship standards of the craft or trade in the area of the site of the Work for a certificate
approving the Contractor or such Subcontractor under the apprenticeship standards for the
employment and training of apprentices in the area or industry affected, provided, however, that
the approval as established by the Joint Apprenticeship Committee or Committees shall be subject
to the approval of the Administrator of Apprenticeship. The Joint Apprenticeship Committee or
Committees, subsequent to approving the Contractor or Sukontractor, shall arrange for the
dispatch of apprentices to the Contractor or such Subcontractor in order to comply with California
Labor Code 51777.5. Thete shall be an affirmative duty upon the Joint Apprenticeship Committee
or Committees, administering the apprenticeship standards of the crafu or trades in the area of the
site of the Work, to ensure equal employment and affirmative action and apprenticeship for women
and minorities. Contractors or Subcontractors shall not be required to submit individual applications
for approval to local Joint Apprenticeship Committees provided they are already covered by the
local apprenticeship standards.
b. Contractors who are not already approved to train apprentices must request dispatch of required
apprentices from one of the applicable Apprentices Committees whose geographic area of operation
includes the site of the Project by giving the committee actual notice of at least forty-eight (48)
hours (excluding Saturdays, Sundays and holidays) before the date on which one or more
apprentices are required. Contractors and Subcontracto6 may use DAS form 142 to make the
request for apprentices. However, if a non-signatory Contractor declines to abide by and comply
with the terms of a local committee's standards, the Apprenticeship Committee shall not be required
to dispatch apprentices to such Contractor. Conversely, if in response to a written request, an
Apprenticeship Committee does not dispatch any apprentice to a contractor who has agreed to
employ and train apprentices in accordance with either the Apprenticeship Committee's Standards
or the California Apprenticeship Counsel Regulations (Title 8, Section 230 et seq.) within 72 houB
of such request (excluding Saturdays, Sundays and holidays) the contractor shall not be considered
in violation of Section 230.1 as a result of failure to employ apprentices for the remainder of the
Project, provided the contractor has made the request in enough time to meet the required ratio. If
an Apprenticeship Committee dispatches fewer apprentices than the Contractor or Subcontractor
requested, the Contractor or Subcontractor shall be considered in compliance if the Contractor
employs those apprentices who are dispatched, provided that, where there is more than one
Apprenticeship Committee able and willing to unconditionally dispatch apprentices, a Contractor or
Subcontractor who is not a participant in an apprenticeship program has requested dispatch from at
least two committees.
4. Ratio of Apprentices to Journeymen
a. The ratio of Work performed by apprentices to journeymen, who shall be employed in the Work, may
be the ratio stipulated in the apprenticeship standards under which the Joint Apprenticeship
Committee operates, but in no case shall the ratio be less than one hour of apprentice work for
every five hours of labor performed by a journeyman, except as othen/ise provided in California
Labor Code 97777.5. fhe ratio of apprentice work to journeyman work shall apply during any day or
portion of a day when any journeyman is employed at the site of the Work and shall be computed
on the basis of the hours worked during the day by journeymen so employed. Any Work performed
by a journeyman in excess of eight hours per day or 40 hours per week shall not be used to
calculate the ratio. The Contractor must employ apprentices for the number of hours computed as
above before the end of the Contract or subcontract, as applicable. The Contractor must, however,
endeavor, to the greatest extent possible, to employ apprentices during the same time period that
the journeymen in the same craft or trade are employed at the site of the Work. Where an hourly
apprenticeship ratio is not feasible for a particular craft or trade, the Division of Apprenticeship
Standards, upon application of a Joint Apprenticeship Committee, may order a minimum ratio of not
less than one apprentice for each five journeymen in a craft or trade classification.
b. The Contractor or any Subcontractor covered by this Paragraph and California Labor Code 51777.5,
that has agreed to be covered by an Apprenticeship Program's standards, upon the issuance of the
approval certificate, or that has been previously approved in such craft or trade, must employ the
number of apprentices or the ratio of apprentices to journeymen stipulated in the apprenticeship
standards, but in no event less than the 1-to-5 hourly ratio. Upon proper showing by the
Contractor that it employs apprentices in such craft or trade in the State of California on all of its
contracts on an annual average of not less than one apprentice to each five journeymen, the
Division of Apprenticeship Standards may grant a certificate exempting the Contractor from the 1-
to-5 hourly ratio as set forth in this Paragraph and California Labor Code 91777,5.
5. Exemption - The requirement to employ apprentices shall not apply to contracts of general
contractors, or to contracts of specialty contractors not bidding for work through a general or prime
contractor, involving less than Thirty Thousand Dollars ($30,000.00) or twenty (20) Working Days. The
term "Apprenticeable Craft or Trade," as used herein shall mean a craft or trade determined as an
Apprenticeable occupation in accordance with rules and regulations prescribed by the Apprenticeship
Council.
6. Contributions to Trust Funds - The Contractor or any Subcontractor of any tier who performs any of
the Work by employment of journeymen or apprentices in any Apprenticeable Craft or Trade shall
contribute to the California Apprenticeship Council in the same amount that the Director determines is
the prevailing amount of apprenticeship training contributions in the area of the Project. Contractor or
any Subcontractor, of any tier, may take as a credit for payments to the Council any amounts paid by
the Contractor or Subcontractor to an approved apprenticeship program that can supply apprentices to
the Project. Contractors who do not contribute to an apprenticeship program must submit their
contributions to the California Apprenticeship Council. Training Fund contributions are due and payable
on the 15th day of the month for work performed during the preceding month. Trainlng contributions
to the California Apprenticeship Council shall be paid by check and shall be accompanied by a
Completed Training Fund Contribution form (CAC-Z). Contractors who contribute to an apprenticeship
program are entitled to a full credit in the amount of those contributions. The Division of Labor
Standards Enforcement is authorized to enforce the payment of such contributions to such fund(s) as
set forth in California Labor Code 5 227. Such contributions shall not result in an increase in the
Contract Price.
7. Contractor's Compliance - The responsibility of compliance with this Paragraph for all Apprenticeable
Trades or Crafts is solely and exclusively that of the Contractor. All decisions of the loint
Apprenticeship Committee(s) under this Paragraph are subject to the provisions of California Labor
Code 53081. In the event the Contractor willfully fails to comply with the provisions of this Paragraph
and California Labor Code S1777.5, pursuant to California Labor Code 5L777.7, the Contractor shall: (i)
be denied the right to bid on any public works contract for a period of one (1) year from the date the
determination of non-compliance is made by the Administrator of Apprenticeship; and (ii) forfeit, as a
civil penalfy, One Hundred Dollars ($100.00) for each calendar day of noncompliance. Nohvithstanding
the provisions of California Labor Code 51727, upon receipt of such determination, the City shall
withhold such amount from the Contract Price then due or to become due. Any such determination
shall be issued after a full investigation, a fair and impartial hearing, and reasonable notice thereof in
accordance with reasonable rules and procedures prescribed by the California Apprenticeship Council.
Any funds withheld by the City pursuant to this Paragraph shall be deposited in the General Fund or
other similar fund of the City. The interpretation and enforcement of California Labor Code 991777.5
and 7777.7 shall be in accordance with the rules and procedures of the California Apprenticeship
Council.

PART II
SPECIAL PROVISIONS. SPECIFIC FOR THIS PROJECT
II-1.01 Highlights of relevant Facts- Vernon Gas & Electric (VG&E) is requesting lump sum (fixed price) bids for
a Contractor to provide TURNKEY design, engineering, procurement and construction services for all work and
provide two each safe, reliable, functional, operational and ready-in-service control systems for the two existing
aero-derivative gas turbines used for power generation (Gonzales Unit l and 2) including but not limited to
voltage control, fuel control, unit sequencing control, remote operating station and other miscellaneous
equipment, hardware and software necessary located at 4990 Seville, Vernon CA 90058. The upgrade must be
designed to guara4tee a fully automated push button control individual turbine startup and synchronization in
less than 10 minutes for each turbine in individual or two back to back sequential starts if ordered by CalISO.
The Contractor must be willing to guarantee the design so that the full load operation is reached in less than
ten (10) minutes. Under no circumstances shall the Contractor be relieved of their operational ten minute start
and full load guarantee due to their strict adherence to the suggestions stated in this document which is only a
suggested guide. The Contractor is solely responsible for the execution of this contract.
II-1.02 Issues or Problems to be Addressed - VG&E owns and operates two (2) Rolls-Royce 571K Allison
industrial aero-derivative gas turbines used for power generation. These two turbines provide a value to the
City of Vernon in the form of Non-Spin Ancillary Service but more importantly provide a part of the City's
Resource Adequacy (RA) requirements. Each turbine has operated on average approximately 20 hours per year
however when they are called on a less ten (10) minute start to full load is required for acceptance by the
CalISO. The RA requirement is based on reaching full load (about 6 MW's per turbine) in less than ten (10)
minutes after receipt of a Dispatch notice by CalISO. If the turbine starts does not reach full load in less that or
exactly in ten (10) minutes the City of Vernon may incur a penalty by the CaIISO and the RA payment to the
City of Vernon is at risk. The CaIISO considers a start of greater than (10) minutes a start failure and it is not
accepted. The term "Failed Start Event" will be used throughout this section - special provisions to describe
such an event. The City therefore wants to replace the existing control system with a new design to minimize
the potential for an M penalty and subjection to a deduction of the yearly payment due to a start failure. The
City wants to eliminate or at least minimize this financial income risk.
The construction window for this project is from October 2015 to March 2016. The City has a preferred
installation time of 100 working days for both units. Each unit will be upgraded independently of each other so
one unit may stay in service at all times. It is expected that the Design, Construction and testing of the Control
Cabinets be done well in advance of the construction window starting from the Notice to Proceed date.
The existing operating and sequencing control systems for the turbines have become obsolete and spare parts
are no longer manufactured. The existing sequencing control and protection systems for the turbine-generator
train need to be removed once at a time and replaced with a new modern operating system capable of starting,
sequencing and coming up to full load automatically and in less than ten (10) minutes with either a single
turbine or two turbines in a sequential manner. This will assure the existing turbines remain in service, due to
their ability to reach full load in less than ten (10) minutes, and the City will not be subject to a "Failed Start
Event", penalty and the RA payment put at risk.
II- 1.03 Scope of Work - VG&E is requesting bids for a Contractor to provide a turnkey design and guarantee a
fully automated push button control system for startup and synchronization in less than ten (10) minutes for the
two existing aero-derivative gas turbines power generation Gonzales Unit 1 and 2 including but not limited to:

Remote Operating Station, Protection relays, Meters, Gauges, prints and other miscellaneous
equipment, hardware and software necessary.
B. The Contractor shall be responsible for the design, engineering, procurement, construction,
management, new settings, startup, operator training, testing and commissioning of the Project,

work regardless of possible omissions or errors in any City provided drawings, documentation,
standards, material lists, and this Specification. Miscellaneous material items that are missing shall be
furnished by the Contractor, at no additional cost to the City, to produce completely working
protection, metering, control, and automation systems in conformity with the intent of the Work and
this Specification. The City's Project Manager shall have the final authority in determining the
Contractor's responsibility to complete all work in conformance with the drawings and this
Specification. The City's Project Manager shall have the final authority to direct the Contractor to
correct any and all work that has been improperly performed, at no additional cost to the City or
relieve the Contractor of any obligation(s) regarding the less than ten (10) minutes full load start
guarantee.
3) PROTECTTON:
Replace all protective devices with a Schweitzer microprocessor-type SEL-700G1+ relay with auto
sync relay. Provide and install new wiring for protection, controls and metering systems. Contractor
shall provide an SEL-700G1+ relay for each turbine. The SEL-700G1+ relay shall be selected to have

Section 1.04 Fuel Control
Northwest Electrical Services LLC
Essentially, OPTION C has been chosen as the best option for the fuel control,
with the least amount of potential issues during the tight window for
construction. Choosing another option will introduce variables which simply do
not exist with the existing TCSD System already proven with years of service. The
low running hours of the unit also warrants keeping the existing TCSD in service.
Fuel Control will be accomplished with the existing TCSD system installed. A
refurbished TCSD will be supplied as a spare unit, and will be demonstrated along
with the new Control Panels during Factory Acceptance testing.
Once the construction phase begins, the existing TCSD system installed on the
first unit to be upgraded will be removed and replaced with the spare unit
supplied and tested above. The original unit will then be given a health check
with the TCSD Designer's assistance and readied for the second unit to be
upgraded.
Once the Second unit is made available for construction, its original TCSD will be
replaced with the TCSD system removed from the first unit. The second unit's
original TCSD will then be given a health check and be made available as a
complete spare for either unit.
Section 1.05 Control System Architecture
(a) PtC / Unit Sequencing Control
The existing GE Series 6 PLC and all associated l/O modules and
communication cards will be replaced by an Allen-Bradley Compactlogix
PLC and required lnput/Ouput Modules. Upon contract award, Northwest
Electrical Services shall retrieve the logic from the existing unit for
reference.
All sequencing functions shall be programmed as well as water injection
for interface with the fuel control, motor control centers, voltage and
load control
The PLC will communicate using Ethernet/lP for all HMI operations and
h istorical data logging functions.

Tie Breaker Synchronization Control System - Siemens Energy / Australia
Phase 2
Northwest Electrical Services LLC together with Siemens Energy and ABB, was
contracted to design modifications to a system to allow grid tie operations for a
previously supplied Tiebreaker synchronization system for a major client in Australia.
The previously supplied system designed and
built by Northwest Electrical Services, was for
island operation only. The original project
consisted of three synchronization panels,
with the requirements to utilize Woodward
Master Synchronizing and Load Control units
(MSLCs) and interface with generator Digita!
Synchronizing and Load Control units
(DSLCs). The system required coordination
and communication between 8 MSLCs in a
challenging scheme not before utilized in an
MSLC configuration. \Mile the client
specification for the project specified various
operational and international code
requirements, Northwest Electrical Services
LLC proposed and ultimately provided an
innovative flexible solution incorporating PLC
control and touch screen HMls, allowing for future expansion and changes to
operationat requirements. Our solution provided the following modifications to this

The system supervision and control of plant was based on and created \:
using Wonderware Archestra System Platform. The Archestra System Platform is
comprised of multiple functions including:
1. Real Time Data Acquisition Engine using Wonderware DAS Servers for PLC and
Modbus Communications, and OPC servers for SNMP.
2. Plant Historian for data logging of analog and discrete values.
3. Alarm and Event recording.
4. Object oriented graphical symbols used for visualization.
5. Deployment of HMI graphics to nodes.
The benefit of using this software is that data can be gathered from a variety sources
throughout the plant by the HMl. An OPC Server for Modbus is used to communicate
between the existing Co-Gen unit controller and the HMl. An l/O server creates a
communication link between the HMI and the new Allen Bradley Micrologix 1400
controller installed. The result is a central location for users to visualize and control the
entire plant. Each user is given
a login for the HMl. Permissions
are decided based on the login
credentials. ln order for
changes to be made to the
operation of the Co-Gen unit or
plant, a user must be logged in
and have control permissions. lfa user does not have the
necessary authorization, thenthe user is restricted to
supervision only on the HMl. As
a result, only qualified users to
are allowed to control the plant
and unintended operation of the
Co-Gen unit are kept to a
minimum.

view plant information from anywhere on any computer or mobile device via an lnternet
connection. Users login with the same local HMI credentials to a secure dedicated
website hosted and maintained by Northwest Electrical Services LLC. On the website,
users view the same HMI graphics and have the same privileges of supervision only or
supervision and control from a remote location as they would locally at the plant HMI.
Even if a user is not monitoring plant status locally or remotely, the WIN-911 software
connects to the HMI and monitors all alarm and event notifications. An email will be sent
out to a distribution list if an alarm or plant change event occurs.

All data available on the HMI is stored in the Wonderware Historian
database. This allows users to access current and past operational data values when
necessary. A user can trend past events for analysis, performance review or reporting.
This past event retrieva! can be done locally or remotely at the HMl.
Al! software and applications are hosted and maintained by Northwest Electrical
Services LLC, using redundant power, data storage, servers and is accessed by the
client representatives via secure VPN login, and all data and communications to the site
are accomplished through a site to site IPSEC tunnel. Northwest Electrical Services
also provides continuous service and upgrades as wel! as modifications to the systems
based on client request through a multiyear service and development agreement.
The Allen Bradley Micrologix 1400
programmable logic controller is used to
schedule the dispatch of the Co-Gen unit. The
MicroLogix l40Ocommunicates with the Co-
Gen unit's controller to send start or stop
signals and retrieve operating parameters from
the Co-Gen unit. A user will select from three
dispatch modes of operation from the HMl.
. Manual. Commercialo Severe Weather
ln manual mode, a user can start and stop the
Co-Gen unit as necessary. The unit will
operate within acceptable parameters
controlled by the Co-Gen unit's controller. ln
commercial mode, the Co-Gen unit will start
and stop based on a schedule or the market
price of electricity. The schedule is set through
the HMI by the user. The Co-Gen unit will start
and stop at the scheduled time. lt will run at the
electrical output set by the user. lf the price of
electricity rises above a predetermined price
then the Co-Gen unit will start and continue to
run until the electricity price drops below the
set price. Severe weather mode will override
any scheduled dispatch of the Co-Gen unit. ln
this mode, the Co-Gen unit will start and follow
the electrical load at the GO Transit
Streetsville plant. The MicrLogix 1400 PLC
provides the logic to follow the plant's electrical
output for the Co-Gen unit to match. Load following allows the Co-Gen unit to power GO
Transit - Streetsville in case the utility's connection is lost during inclement weather

Replacement Load Bank Contro! System
Siemens Energy Test Facility - Houston TX
Northwest Electrical Services LLC has been performing Generator and Protection
Systems Factory testing and site start-up on a regular basis for years. Siemens' test
Facility in Houston Texas, utilized an Allen-Bradley PLC for lad bank control along with
a Rockwell RSView system for operator interface.
The system was no longer maintainable, and the logic and interface would often subject
the generator lturbine to unwarranted load changes. This would cause complications
during load and witness testing for their clients. Siemens contracted Northwest
Electrical Services to redesign the load bank PLC program and operator interface to
allow:o New operator interface based on Wonderware lntouch. Allow individual selection of load bank resistors on or off in a controlled manner
such that load step changes are within the test or machine parameters.o Trending tool to include in test results for electrical quantities.o Modified PLC program to accomplish the above as necessary.. Commission and turnover.

range from 5 MW units to 14.4 MW units and in age from 30 years to 6 years. While
BELCO is planning plant expansion, it is necessary to retain the services of three Sulzer
240 engines for an additional 5 years. These engine have approximately 25 years of
service and while the engine themselves are in excellent working condition the auxiliary
cooling systems are in need of replacement.
Northwest Electrical Services LLC executed an
engineering study for BELCO which
determined the performance of the existing
cooling systems, and the detrimental effect on
overall engine efficiency. The study revealed
that by replacing the existing cooling system
equipment with new coolers and circulating
pumps which could be re-purposed in the
future to newer areas of the generating station,
the utility would increase the availability and
efficiency of the diesel engines and have a
return on the initial investment of 15% over 5
years.

lntegrated Operations Center - Bermuda Electric Light Company, Hannilton
Bermuda
During the period of November 2001through June 2003, principals of Northwest
Electrica! Services LLC, conceptualized, designed and commissioned an lntegrated
Operations Center for the island of Bermuda's sole electric utility, Bermuda Electric
Light Company (BELCO). The purpose of the Operations Center was to combine three
functionally and physically separated control rooms into a single facility thereby
increasing situationa! awareness of both Generation and Grid conditions and establish
the infrastructure needed for future distributed generation including renewable
technologies.
To accomplish the above, the Operations Center base design criteria developed by
Northwest Electrical Services LLC principals included:
o lntegration of existing Generator and balance of plant control systems into a
common user interface.
\-.

Northwest Electrical Services LLC
Project Reference
o lncrease operational awareness and monitoring of plant and grid status through
the use of real time integration of critical operating data, and data warehousing
and retrieval of historical data.
. lnstallation and integration of intelligent elechonic metering devices.
. Provide for redundant communications, networking, server infrastructure and
power.
o Be housed in a structure to withstand class 4 hurricane force winds complete
with HVAC, security and fire alarm and suppression systems.
. Allow for uninterrupted control of plant and grid in the event the facility is
compromised or evacuated.
. Provide a return on investment strategy by reducing manpower previously
located in separate control rooms, decrease outage durations through the use of
enhanced intelligent dispatch.
The detailed design, construction and commissioning of the operations center
incorporated the following key operational elements and disciplines.
o Application development and integration of lnvensys Archestra suite of products
to provide for a consistent operator interface system, not only in the operations
center, but also on the plant floor so that at all times the plant floor and
operations center are reviewing and responding to the same information. This
work involved graphic designs as modifications to existing disparate control
system hardware and software. The systems allow for local control only for some
aspects of operation, and both local and remote control for other functions based
on login and/or location.
. ln addition to the operator interface application, the lnvensys Archestra suite of
products was developed to provide a data historian platform from which data
from many disparate sources was integrated into a singular data warehouse. The
data retrieval was both real time and batch and included sources such as
existing SCADA Oracle databases, lntelligent electrical devices, manual data
entry and real time data from control systems.
o lnstallation and networking of generator and transmission systems Schneider
Electric intelligent ION meters used for both logging of data both within the meter
and remotely, as well as transducer outputs for a non-networked interface with
critical control and protection systems or legacy systems.. A major design challenge was to replace the legacy hardwired generator controls
separated by two different physical control rooms into a single facility and allow
for redundancy in the event the primary operations center was compromised or
evacuated. Due to the time frame for completion of the project, and the need for
a system that would support both legacy controls and newer or future systems,

\"''
Construction of the facility commenced in July of 2002, with a schedule to fully
commission the integrated Operations Center in June of 2003. Northwest Electrical
Services principals managed the entire construction and commissioning of the center.
Commissioning was complex, as BELCO is the sole supplier of electricity to the island,
all systems had to be fully commissioned without interruption to the supply of electricity.
The center was fully staffed and operational in May of 2003. On September sth, 2003
the island was struck by a category 4 hurricane, Fabian, which decimated the islands
overhead distribution system and left 7 5o/o of the utility's customers without power. The
operations center performed as designed, all systems and facilities not only withstood
the hurricane forces, but the center's monitoring systems and facility played a crucial
role supporting the incredible efforts of BELCO staff with the record restoration of all
power to customers within three weeks following the storm.

"LIVING OUR CREDO''
Nodhwest Electrical Servrces LLC has established a code of conduct
for all employees and managers. ln a world of global economics all
businesses are faced with increased competitiveness and increased
exposure through a vartety of communication media. The intent of
this policy is to guide all our employees and stakeholderc as to fhe
conduct required when representing our organization, so that
honesty and faimess to each other and our clients prevail. Our
reputation to deliver fair value to our clients is our greatest asset
Statement of Our Core Values
Company Vision
Northwest Electrical Services LLC will always meet our commitments.
Values
Excellence - We are committed to world-class customer service and
quali$ as we excel for the mutual success of our clients, employees, and
partners. Our professionals are customer-driven and continually add value
to our services whenever it benefits our clients. We are committed to
working toward continual improvement in everything we do.
Honesty and lntegrity - Our business is based on long-term relationships
that require utmost trust. We require honesty and integrity in everything
we do. We are accountable to our customers, owners, suppliers, and
fellow employees. We do what we say we are going to do.
lnnovation - We always think outside the box to provide the best solutions
for our clients. Our best solutions often evolve from discussions across
different divisions and with our many strategic partners.
Teamwork - We realize that every employee is integral to the success of
the company and strive to promote teamwork across divisional lines for the
benefit of our customers. We also value our relationships with our
strategic pa(ners and recognize their importance in delivering solutions to
our customers.
Mission
The company's mission is to continue providing high quality, integrated and
cost effective solutions and services for industry focused on understanding
and supporting the needs of our customers, employees and suppliers
through:
. Excellent customer service. Technical expertise. Safety. Quality. Value
Build Trust and Credibility
The success of our business is dependent on the trust and conlldence we
earn from our employees, customers and shareholders. We gain credibility
by adhering to our commitments, displaying honesty and integrity and
reaching company goals solely through honorable conduct. lt is easy to
say what we must do, but the proof is in our actbns. Ultimately, we will be
judged on what we do.
When considering any action, it is wise to ask: will this build trust and
credibility for Northwest Electrical Services LLC? Will it help create a
working environment in which Northwest Electrical Services LLC can
succeed over the long term? ls the commitment I am making one I can
follow through with? The only way we will maximize trust and credibility is
by answering "yes" to those questions and by working every day to build
our trust and credibility.
Respect for the lndividua I
We all deserve to work in an environment where we are treated with
dignity and respect. Northwest Electrical Servrces LLC is committed to
creating such an environment because it brings out the full potential in
each of us, which, in turn, contributes directly to our business success. We
cannot afford to let anyone's talents go to waste.
Northwest Electrical Services LLC is an equal employment and is
committed to providing a workplace that is free of discrimination of all types
from abusive, offensive or harassing behavior. Any employee who feels
harassed or discriminated against should repo( the incident to his or her
manager or to human fesoufces.
Create a Culture of Open and Honest Communication
At Northwest Electrical Services LLC everyone should feel comfortable to
speak his or her mind, particularly with respect to ethics concerns.
Managers have a responsibility to create an open and supportive
environment where employees feel comfortable raising such questions.
We all benefit tremendously when employees exercise their power to
prevent mistakes or wrongdoing by asking the right questions at the right
times.
Northwest Electrical Services LLC will investigate all reported instances of
questionable or unethical behavior. ln every instance where improper
behavior is found to have occurred, the company will take appropriate
action. We will not tolerate retaliation against employees who raise
genuine ethics concerns in good faith.
Employees are encouraged, in the first inslance, to address such issues
with their managers or the HR manager, as most problems can be
resolved swiftly. lf for any reason that is not possible or if an employee is
not comfortable raising the issue with his or her manager or HR, Northwest
Electrical Services LLC's General Manager or Operations Manager (the
Executive) does operate with an open-door policy.
Set Tone at the Top
Management has the added responsibility for demonstrating, through their
actions, the importance of this Code. ln any business, ethical behavior
does not simply happen; it is the producl of clear and direct communication
of behavioral expectations, modeled from the top and demonstu ated by
example. Again, ultimately, our actions are what matters.
To make our Code work, managers must be responsible for promptly
addressing ethical questions o[ concerns raised by employees and for
taking the appropriate steps to deal with such issues. Managers should not
consider employees' ethics concerns as threats or challenges to their
authority, but rather as another encouraged form of business
communication. At Northwest Electrical Services LLC, we want the ethics
dialogue to become a natural part of daily work.
Uphold the Law
Northwest Eleckical Services LLC's commitment to integrity begins with
complying with laws, rules and regulations where we do business. Further,
each of us must have an understanding of the company policies, laws,
rules and regulations that apply to our specific roles. lf we are unsure of
whether a contemplated action is permitted by law or Northwest Electrical
Services LLC policy, we should seek the advice from the resource expert.
We are responsible for preventing violations of law and for speaking up if
we see possible violations.
Competition
We are dedicated to ethical, fair and vigorous competition. We will sell
Northwest Electrical Services LLC products and services based on their
merit, superior quality, functionality and competitive pricing. We will make
independent pricing and marketing decisions and will not improperly
cooperate or coordinate our activities with our competitors. We will not
offer or solicit improper payments or gratuities in connection with the
purchase of goods or services for Northwest Electrical Services LLC or the
sales of its products or services, nor will we engage or assist in unlawful
boycotts of particular customers.
Proprietary lnformation
It is important that we respect the property rights of others. We will not
acquire or seek to acquire improper means of a competitor's trade secrets
or other proprietary or confidential information. We will not engage in
unauthorized use, copying, distribution or alteration of software or other
intellectual property.
Serectiye Disclosure
We will not selectively disclose (whether in one-on-one or small
discussions, meetings, presentations, proposals or otherwise) any material
nonpublic information with respect to Northwest Electrical Services LLC, its
securities, business operations, plans, financial condition, results of
operations or any development plan. We should be particularly vigilant
when making presentations or proposals to customers to ensure that our
presentations do not contain material nonpublic information.

Northwest Electrical Services LLC is dedicated to maintaining a healthy
environment. A safety manual has been designed to educate you on safety
in the workplace. lf you do not have a copy of this manual, please contact
HR.
Avoid Conflicts of lnterest
Conflicts of lnterest
We must avoid any relationship or activity that might impair, or even
appear to impair, our ability to make objective and fair decisions when
performing our jobs. At times, we may be faced with situations where the
business actions we take on behalf of Northwest Electrical Services LLC
may conflict with our own personal or family interests because of lhe
course of action that is best for us personally may not also be the best
course of action for Northwest Electrical Services LLC. We owe a duty to
Northwest Electrical Services LLC to advance its legitimate interests when
the opportunity to do so arises. We must never use Northwest Electrical
Services LLC property or information for personal gain or personally take
for ourselves any oppo(unity that is discovered through our position with
No(hwest Electrical Services LLC.
Here are some other ways in which conflicts of interest could arise:
1. Being employed (you or a close family member) by, or acting as a
consultant to, a competitor or potential competitor, supplier or contractor,
regardless of the nature of the employment, while you are employed with
Northwest Electrical Services LLC.
2. Hiring or supervising family members or closely related persons.
3. Serving as a board member for an outside commercial company or
organization.
4. Owning or having a substantial interest in a competitor, supplier or
contractor.
5. Having a personal interest, financial interest or potential gain in any
Northwest Electrical Services LLC transaction.
6. Placing company business with a lllm owned or controlled by a
Northwest Electrical Services LLC employee or his or her family.
7. Accepting gifts, discounts, favors or services from a customer/potential
customer, competitor or supplier, unless equally available to all Northwest
Electrical Services LLC employees.
Determining whether a conflict of interest exists is not always easy to do.
Employees with a conflict of interest question should seek advice from
management. Before engaging in any activity, transaction or relationship
that might give rise to a conflict of interest, employees must seek review
from their managers or the HR department.
Gifts, Gratuities and Business Courtesies
Northwest Electrical Services LLC is committed to competing solely on a
merit of our products and services. We should avoid any actions that
create a perception thal favorable treatment of outside entities by
Northwest Electrical Services LLC was sought, received or given in
exchange for personal business courtesies Business courtesies include
gifts, gratuities, meals, refreshments, entertainment or other benefits from
persons or companies with whom Northwest Electrical Services LLC does
or may do business. We will neither give nor accept business cou(esies
that constitute, or could reasonably be perceived as constituting, unfair
business inducements that would violate law, regulation or polices of
Northwest Electrical Services LLC or customers, or would cause
embarrassment or reflect negatively on Northwest Electrical Services
LLC's reputation.
Ac c epti ng Business Courtesies
Most business courtesies offered to us in the course of our employment
are offered because of our positions at Northwest Eleckical Services LLC.
We should not feel any entitlement to accept and keep a business
courtesy. Although we may not use our position at Northwest Electrical
Services LLC to obtain business courtesies, and we must never ask for
them, we may accept unsolicited business courtesies that promote
successful working relationships and good will with the firms that
Northwest Electlical Services LLC maintains or may eslablish a business
relationship with.
Employees who award contracts or who can influence the allocation of
business, who create specillcations that result in the placement of
business or who participate in negotiation of contracts must be padicularly
careful to avoid aclions that create the appearance of favoritism or that
may adversely affect the company's reputation for impartiality and fair
dealing. The prudent course is to refuse a courlesy from a supplie[ when\- Northwest Electrical Services LLC is involved in choosing or reconfirming a
supplier or under circumstances that would create an impression that
offering courtesies is the way to obtain Northwest Electrical Services LLC
business.
Meals, Refreshments and Entertainment
We may accept occasional meals, refreshments, entertainment and similar
business cou(esies that are shared with the person who has offered to
pay for the meal or entertainment, provided that:
. They are not inappropriately lavish or excessive.
. The courtesies are not frequent and do not reflect a pattern of frequent
acceptance of courtesies from the same person or entity.
. The courtesy does not create the appearance of an attempt to influence
business decisions, such as accepting courtesies or entertainment from a
supplier whose contract is expiring in the near future.
. The employee accepting the business courtesy would not feel\- uncomfortable discussing the courtesy with his or her manager or co-
worker or having the courtesies known by the public.
Gifts
Employees may accept unsolicited gifts, other than money, that conform to
the reasonable ethical practices of the marketplace, including:
. Flowers, fruit baskets and other modest presents that commemorate a
special occasion.
. Gifts of nominal value, such as calendars, pens, mugs, caps and t-shirts
(or other novelty, advertising or promotional items).
Generally, employees may not accept compensation, honoraria or money
of any amount from entities with whom Northwest Electrical Services LLC
does or may do business. Tangible gifts (including tickets to a sporting or
entertainment event) that have a market value greater than $100 may not
be accepted unless approval is obtained from management.
Employees with questions about accepting business courtesies should talk
\- to their managers or the HR department.
Otteri ng B u si ness Courtesies
Any employee who offers a business courtesy must assure that it cannot
reasonably be interpreted as an attempt to gain an unfair business
advantage or otherwise reflect negatively upon Northwest Electrical
Services LLC. An employee may never use personal funds or resources to
do something that cannot be done with Northwest Electrical Services LLC
fesources. Accounting for business courtesies must be done in
accordance with approved company procedures.
Other than to our government customers, for whom special rules apply, we
may provide nonmonetary 9ifts (i.e., company logo apparel or similar
promotional items) to our customers. Further, management may approve
other courtesies, including meals, refreshments or entertainment of
reasonable value, provided that:
. The practice does not violate any law or regulation or the standards of
conduct of the recipient's organization.
. The business courtesy is consistent with industry practice, is infrequent in
nature and is not lavish.
\- . The business courtesy is properly reflected on the books and records of
Northwest Electrical Services LLC.
Set Metrics and Report Results Accurately
Ac c u rate P u bl ic Discrosures
We will make certain that all disclosures made in flnancial reports and
public documents are full, fair, accurate, timely and understandable. This
obligation applies to all employees, including all financial executives, with
any responsibility for the preparation for such reports, including drafting,

RE:

Honorable Mayor and City Council
Teresa McAllister, Director of Human Resources Department
Adoption of City of Vernon Personnel Policies and Procedures, Rest and
Meal Breaks II-5 (new) and Reasonable Accommodation for Disabled
Applicants and Employees III-5 (new)
Recommendation
A. Find that approval of the proposed personnel policy and procedures in this staff report is
exempt under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) in accordance with
Section 15061(b)(3), the general rule that CEQA only applies to projects that may have a
significant effect on the environment; and
B. Adopt the attached Personnel Policy and Procedures, Rest and Meal Breaks II-5 (new),
Reasonable Accommodation for Disabled Applicants and Employees III-5 (new) and
incorporate into the Personnel Policies and Procedures Manual; and
C. Authorize the City Administrator and the Director of Human Resources to execute and
distribute the above-referenced policies to all employees.
Background
The Human Resources Department is responsible for maintaining and managing the City's
Personnel Policies and Procedures. Prior to 2013, a comprehensive review of the Personnel
Policies and Procedures had not been conducted in over twenty (20) years. In line with the City's
good governance reforms, the City commenced and is continuing its comprehensive review of its
policies and procedures, including the incorporation of new policies and programs designed to
benefit the City, its employees, and surrounding communities.
To ensure a more efficient and effective method in maintaining and managing the City's
personnel policies and procedures, the City Council on November 20,2012, approved Resolution
No. 2012-231 that incorporates all personnel policies into the Personnel Policies and Procedures
Manual. The manual is designed to provide a uniform and consistent system for human resource
administration throughout the City. In addition, the manual will provide employees with greater
Page I of2
clarity with respect to personnel policies, and promote effective communication among
managers, supervisors, and employees.
In furtherance of the City's good governance reform efforts, staff has presented the following
revised policy for consideration by the City Council and adoption into the Personnel Policies and
Procedures Manual:
o Rest and Meal Breaks Policy II-5 (new) - The attached policy provides uniform
guidelines for non-safety employee rest and meal breaks.
o Reasonable Accommodation for Disabled Applicants and Employees Policy III-5 (new) -
The policy attached defines the procedure and policy to make equitable, uniform, and
timely decisions to assure that reasonable accommodations are provided to disabled
applicants and employees of the City as required by the Americans with Disabilities Act
(the "ADA"), the disability provisions of the California Fair Employment and Housing
Act ("FEHA"), and other applicable laws.
In accordance with the Meyers Milias-Brown Act, City staff participated in the meet and confer
process on the above policies with the City's labor associations/unions as of June23,2015. As
such, any agreed upon revisions have been incorporated into the attached policies.
Fiscal Impact
There is no fiscal impact to adopt the attached policies.

Human Resources Policies and Procedures
Director of Human Resources
City Administrator
Number: II-5 Effective Date:
SUBJECT:REST AND MEAL BREAKS
PURPOSE:
To provide uniform guidelines for non-safety employee's rest and meal breaks.
POLICY:
1. Meal Break - While there is no specific requirement for meal and break periods
under state law that are applicable to City employment, the City encourages
departments to provide employees a meal break of one-half (1/2) hour to one (1)
hour for shifts of at least six (6) consecutive hours. Meal breaks shall generally be
provided near the middle of a work shift, except where departmental scheduling
requires modification in order to maintain services. Department heads are
authorized to approve less than a one-hour meal break, as dictated by operational
needs.
The time allowed for meal breaks includes any travel time to and from the place
where the meal break is taken. For field employees, meal breaks may be taken at
off-site locations only if they can return to the job site within the designated time
limit. A longer meal break may be approved by the department head where it is in
the City's best interest for such an employee to attend a conference with another
governmental agency, service club, luncheon meeting of a professional
organization, or other meetings involving City business.
ln order for a meal break to be added to the regular work schedule and not be
counted as hours worked for non-exempt employees, an employee must be allowed
a minimum one-half hour uninterrupted meal break. lf the meal break is allowed
and not paid as part of the employee's regularly scheduled shift, the meal break
shall be added to the normal work schedule.
2. Rest Breaks - All City employees shall be provided with a fifteen-minute rest break
once during each four consecutive hour work period. The fifteen-minute break may
be taken in conjunction with a half-hour (112) med break only when authorized by
the employee's department head or designee. Compensatory time shall not be
used to extend rest breaks. No break shall occur within one (1) hour of starting
time, or quitting time unless special circumstances make this desirable, in which
case prior approval shall be obtained from the employee's immediate supervisor.
Where adequate on-site facilities exist, employees are required to use the areas
and facilities provided ln the case of field employees, rest breaks are to be taken
at the job site lf in transit between jobs, the break may be taken at the next job
site.
3. Use of Citv Vehicles for Rest or Meal Breaks - City vehicles shall not be used to
travel to business establishments or to a private residence for either rest or meal
breaks, or to pick up food or beverages except under emergency or pre-approved
conditions. The only exceptions are for:
a. Public safety personnel in the Police and Fire Departments who are required to
respond to emergency situations and where the public presence of these
personnel is desirable as a deterrent, and
b Employees on official City business with the department head's approval.
No other exceptions to this policy shall be allowed unless special circumstances
exist in which case the department head shall submit a recommended change or
exception to the City Administrator for approval

City of Vernon, California
Human Resources Policy and Procedure Manual
Director of Human Resources
City Administrator
Number: III-5 Effective Date:
SUBJECT: REASONABLE ACCOMMODATION FOR DISABLED APPLICANTS
AND EMPLOYEES
PURPOSE:
To make equitable, uniform, and timely decisions which will assure that reasonable
accommodations are provided to disabled applicants and employees of the City as
required by the Americans with Disabilities Act (the "ADA"), the disability provisions of
the California Fair Employment and Housing Act ("FEHA"), and other applicable law.
POLICY:
A. Basic Obliqation
It is the policy of the City of Vernon not to discriminate on the basis of disability
against any qualified person. The City of Vernon continues to uphold its
commitment of nondiscrimination in its employment practices by ensuring that
qualified individuals with disabilities have equal access to employment opportunities
available to non-disabled qualified individuals.
As part of this effort, the City is obligated to make reasonable accommodation for the
known disabilities of applicants and employees to enable them to perform a
position's essential functions, as required by law.
B. Definition of Reasonable Accommodation
(1) Reasonable accommodation is an adjustment to job duties, performance
methods, and/or work setting or service delivery to meet the individualized need
of an applicant or employee with a disability
(2) The provision of a reasonable accommodation removes barriers in a specific
situation, which prevent or limit the application process, recruitment,
employment or upward mobility of a qualified person with a disability, or
prevents their participation in a program, activity or event.
c.
Number: III-5 Effective Date:
Request for Reasonable Accommodation
Employees may request reasonable accommodation to allow them to perform any or
all essential functions of their job when they have a physical or mental impairment or
medical condition that limits one or more major life activities. This impairment or
medical condition may or may not be as a result of a work-related incident. This
provision applies when the employee has such an impairment or medical condition,
is regarded as having such an impairment or medical condition, has a history of
having such an impairment or medical condition, or has an impairment or medical
condition that requires special education or related services.
It is the primary responsibility of an individual to request an accommodation.
However, the City may initiate the reasonable accommodation interactive process
without an employee's request if the City: (1) knows that the employee has a
disability, (2) knows, or has reason to know, that the employee is experiencing
workplace problems because of the disability, and (3) knows, or has reason to know,
that the disability prevents the employee from requesting a reasonable
accommodation..
When a supervisor is made aware of a request for accommodation or believes,
based on reasonable information, that an accommodation may be necessary, the
supervisor must contact Human Resources immediately. A request for
accommodation does not have to use the term "reasonable accommodation."
Human Resources will work with the supervisor and management to process the
accommodation request or situation.
The City's Employment Application shall include a statement indicating that the City
shall consider any request for reasonable accommodation made by an applicant.
Necessarv lnformation
An individual seeking reasonable accommodation has the responsibility to
understand his or her own physical or mental condition well enough to present the
City at the earliest opportunity with a specific list of limitations/restrictions that must
be met to achieve reasonable accommodation. Requests for reasonable
accommodation may be made orally or in writing, and must provide the following
information:
o The type of accommodation requested;
. An explanation of the limitation for which the accommodation is needed; and
o A description of how the accommodation will allow the individual to perform the
essential functions of his/her job.
Where the accommodation request is unclear or its need is not obvious, the City
may request that the individual document the need for the accommodation
requested. The City's authorized designee may not request specific medical
diagnosis information to determine whether the individual is disabled, but verification
of the disability by the requester's physician or medical provider may be required.
The City may ask the individual about work tasks that he or she cannot perform
2
D.
Number; III-5 Effective Date:
because of the disability, the individual's performance limitations due to the
disability, and any limitations that impact the health or safety of the individual, other
workers, or the public.
lf necessary, the City's authorized designee may seek the consent of the individual
to communicate directly with the individual's medical provider. Such communication
requires written consent of the individual. Any request by the City for medical
records shall be limited to establishing that the employee has a disability which
requires reasonable accommodation.
lf an individual fails to submit information that is legally requested by the City and
necessary for the City to process the accommodation request, then the City will be
unable to determine what, if any, reasonable accommodation is available.
lf an individual requesting accommodation does not provide sufficient documentation
from his or her medical provider and continues not to do so after the City requests
such documentation, the City may require the individual to undergo a medical
examination which is job-related, consistent with a business necessity, and to
determine whether the individual can perform the essential functions of the position
with or without reasonable accommodation.
E. Determininq the Reasonable Accommodation
While processing a request for accommodation, Human Resources in collaboration
with the relevant Department shall:
1. Consult with the disabled individual in a timely and good faith interactive process
to identify the individual's precise job-related limitations resulting from the
disability, including the task or work environment factors that prevent the
individual from performing the duties of the position. Employees will be advised
that they may include third persons, such as friends, family, union
representatives or attorneys, to assist them in the interactive process. The City
retains the right to use in-house staff or consultant services to perform the
interactive process.
2. Analyze the position in question, including determining whether the job
description is accurate or complete, and determine the position's essential
functions.
3. Consult with the individual to identify potential accommodations and assess their
feasibility and their effectiveness in enabling the individual to perform the
essential functions of the position.
4. Consider the individual's preference and select an accommodation that is
reasonable for both the City and the employee. The City retains the discretion to
choose among various effective accommodations.
5. Within ten (10) working days of receipt of all necessary information and
Number: III-5 Effective Date:
documentation, the Human Resources Department will notify the individual of the
decision to grant, deny, or modify the request. lf the request is approved, Human
Resources will notify the requester and make the necessary implementation
arrangements. lf additional medical verification or information is required, the
review process and time frames are suspended until the requested information is
received.
6. Because of the personal nature of some disability issues, every reasonable effort
should be taken to ensure confidentiality during the review process. Supervisors
and managers who need to know may be told about functional limitations and
necessary restrictions on the work or duties of the employee and about the
necessary accommodation(s), but medical information regarding the condition
itself should only be disclosed if absolutely necessary.
Typical accommodations include improving access to workplace facilities,
physically altering workplace facilities, modifying or providing certain equipment
or devices, reallocating non-essential job duties, altering work schedules,
reassignment to a vacant position, temporary modified duties, leave of absence,
or modifying tests or training materials. Whether any of these accommodations is
reasonable depends on the specific disability limitations and position in question.
The City is not obligated or required to create a new job, displace another
employee, or violate established seniority or related systems in order to
reasonably accommodate a disabled individual.
F. When Accommodation Not Required
A review of a situation may determine that reasonable accommodation cannot be
made because one or more of the following:
1. The individual's condition is not a disability under the ADA and FEHA.
2. The individual's condition does not result in limitations that prevent the individual
from performing the essential duties of his or her position.
3. No accommodation is available that is reasonable.
4. The accommodation would create an undue hardship on the City; an
accommodation poses an undue hardship when it requires significant difficulty or

Recommendation
A. Find that approval to issue a request for proposal for an Executive Search Firm to
conduct a recruitment for the position of City Administrator for the City of Vernon is

City has transformed to become a model city for good governance in Southeast Los Angeles
County. In anticipation of the City Administrator's retirement, it is vital to begin recruitment
planning for the next big picture generalist to take the organization to the next level on its
forward path of transparency, accountability and good governance.

1. INTRODUCTION AND PROJECT
The City Council of the City of Vernon is soliciting proposals from exceptionally qualified
Executive Recruitment firms and/or Public Sector consultants to conduct a
comprehensive recruitment for the position of City Administrator.
Selected Firm will be required to enter into a Professional Services Agreement, a copy of
which is attached hereto as Exhibit "B". Portions of the Agencies proposal may be
incorporated into the Professional Services Agreement.
The City will select one firm, based on demonstrated competence and a cost effective
approach to design, conduct, and assist in the selection of a City Administrator.
2. BACKGROUND
The City of Vernon was founded in 1905, is approximately 5.2 square miles in size and
is located approximately 5 miles southeast of downtown Los Angeles California. Over its
long history Vernon has been developed as an industrial community. At the turn of the
20th century the lands that make up Vernon were comprised largely of farmlands. The
presence of three major rail lines in the area led influential business and property owners
to encourage the railroad companies to run spur lines onto the farmlands. These rail
extensions enabled the creation of an "exclusively industrial" city. By the 1920's Vernon
was attracting large stockyards and meatpacking facilities. ln the 1930's Vernon
became the location of choice for many heavy industrial plants. As economic conditions
changed over the decades, these large scale industrial operations have relocated out of
Southern California and Vernon has attracted smaller, lighter industrial facilities. The
City's business friendly environment, low cost utilities and key location for trucking and
rail transport continue to position Vernon as an ideal location for industrial uses.
City Government: The City Council consists of five members, elected at-large, who
serve five-year staggered terms. The City Council annually appoints a Mayor and a
Mayor Pro Tem from its own membership to serve one-year terms.
Labor Force: Vernon has approximately 250 employees, and its departments include a
Fire Department, Police Department, Finance Department, Public Works, Water and
Development Services Department, Gas and Electric Department and Health and
Environmental Control Department. Present bargaining units recognized include the
Vernon Police Officers Benefit Association, Vernon Police Management Association,
Vernon Firemen's Association, the Vernon Fire Management Association, lnternational
Brotherhood of Electrical Workers Local 47, and Teamsters Local 91 1.
3. ISSUES OR PROBLEMS TO BE ADDRESSED
ln the past five years, Vernon has undergone tremendous change. Through the City's
implementation of more than 150 good governance reforms, Vernon - the City that has
billed itself as "Exclusively lndustrial" for nearly 110 years, has firmly established itself as
a model City for good governance in Southeast Los Angeles County.
2
July 2015
City of Vemon Request for Proposals for An Executive Search Firm
Today, Vernon has resolutely closed the book on its'sometimes discredit past, and new
city leaders look steadfastly ahead to a promising future.
ln February 201 1 , Former California State Attorney General John Van De Kamp was
engaged to serve as an lndependent Ethics Advisor to the City. ln January 2015, he
presented his eighth report stating that "the City of Vernon has seen continuing
progress".
Vernon's new housing project, Vernon Village Park is due for completion in mid-2015.
50 new units are expected to bring in around 125 new residents to the City, virtually
doubling Vernon's population.
The Huntington Park soccer field renovation which Vernon largely funded (with a
contribution of $700,000 from the Community Fund Good Neighbor Program) has been
completed and open for play.
The City of Vernon has a $340.2 million balanced budget for 2015-16 with $56.8 million
general fund operating budget. Plans are underway for refinancing some of the City's
bonds and interest rate swaps which should improve the City's cash position and its
ability to fund needed infrastructure projects, and reduce fiscal volatility.
The current City Adminiskator is retiring after 26 lz years of service with the City, the last
5 y2 yearc serving in a key and critical role leading to the City's transformation. The City
Council is seeking a big picture generalist with strong administrative/management,
financial and planning skills, with municipal experience to take the organization to the
next level on its forward path of transparency, accountability and good governance.
The role of the City Administrator will include but is not limited to:

Approving and authorizing the execution of a new At-Will Employment
Agreement by and between the City of Vernon and Kristen Enomoto
Recommendation
A. Find that approval of the proposed At-Will Employment Agreement is exempt under the
Califomia Environmental Quality Act ("CEQA") in accordance with Section
15061(bX3), the general rule that CEQA only applies to projects that may have a
significant effect on the environment; and
B. Approve the At-Will Employment Agreement (the "Agreement") with Kristen Enomoto,
in substantially the same form as submitted herewith, effective June 28,2015. The
proposed Agreement is the standard At-Will Employment Agreement (Non-Safety) Form
approved by City Council for other executive and at-will positions.
Backeround
In late 2072, in line with the City's good governance reforms, a standard at-will employment
agreement was developed by the City Attorney's Office and approved by the City Council on
May 7, 2013, to be used for City Executive positions. On February 3, 2015, the City Council
approved minor updates to the at-will employment agreement form for Safety and Non-Safety
positions. On June 16, 2015, the City Council approved the designation of the Deputy City
Administrator classification to serve as an at-will position.
This staff report recommends the approval of an At-Will Employment Agreement with Ms.
Enomoto effective June 28, 2015, using the standard At-Will Employment Agreement (Non-
Safety) Form approved by City Council for other executive and at-will positions. The agreement
is consistent with terms and conditions offered to other management classifications.
Page I of2
Fiscal Imoact
There is no direct fiscal impact associated with the implementation of the proposed employment
agreement. All salary and fringe benefit costs remain the same at approximately $207,532
annually, and said costs are included in the 2015-2016 fiscal year budget. Under the proposed
agreement, Ms. Enomoto would be entitled to severance pay equal to six months of base salary if
terminated under certain conditions.

Honorable Mayor and City Council
Daniel Calleros, Police Chief V
Inmate Housing Services Agreement
Recommendation
A. Find that the proposed agreernent authorization is exempt under the California
Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) in accordance with Section 15061(b)(3), the general
rule that CEQA only applies to projects that may have a significant effect on the
environment; and
B. Authorizethe Mayor to execute an agreement for inmate housing services with the City
of Huntington Park Police Department ("HPPD"), in substantially the same form as
submitted herewith, for a period of three (3) years.
C. Find that the agreement is exempt from competitive selection requirements pursuant to
Vernon Municipal Code $ 2.17.12 (A) 5, Exanptions - Contracts with other
govemmental entities for services.
Backsround
In June 2012, pursuant to Resolution 2012-77, the City entered into an agreement with the
Huntington Park Police Department (HPPD) for inmate housing services. The agreement was
extended in June 2014, for an additional one year period.
The Vernon Police Department ("VPD") is seeking to renew the inmate housing services with
the HPPD for a three year period effective July 1, 2015. The estimated annual cost for these
services is $57,000.00. The inmate housing services provided by HPPD has been outstanding and
have established a cost effective approach to address the shortage of Police jail staff as well as
the City fiscal situation.
With suspension of the VPD full-time jail operations, the annual cost savings has been estimated
at approximately $65,000.00. In addition, patrol deployrnent levels have been enhanced since
there is no need for patrol officers to man jail operations due to staffing shortages. Also, given
Page I of?
that the HPPD jail facility is within close proximity to the City of Vernon (l mile), patrol officers
are typically back in service within a relatively short period (10-15 minutes) when inmate
booking is required.
The outsourcing of inmate housing services has also demonstrated our efforts to collaborate with
other regional public safety agencies to the betterment of all communities while maintaining a
responsible fi scal approach.
As permitted in the City's Purchasing Ordinance, the VPD is requesting approval to enter into a
three (3) year agreement with the HPPD for inmate housing services. Since the agreement is for
professional services with a governmental entity, the agreernent is exernpt from competitive
selection pursuant to Vernon Municipal Code $ 2.17.12 (A) 5, Exemptions - Contracts with other
governmental entities for services.
Fiscal Impact
Funds for inmate housing services have been included in the general budget for fiscal year 2015-
2016.

after the current fiscal year, then the arresting agency shall have the option of terminating
the Agreement upon written notice to the City of Huntington Park, except that all services

Samuel Kevin Wilson, Director of Public Works, Water and
Development Services
Amendment No. 2 to the existing Services Agreement between the
City of Vernon and Interwest Consulting Group for On Call Building
Plan Check and Inspection Serryices
Recommendation
A. Find that Amendment No. 2 renewing the existing Services Agreement between the City
of Vemon and Interwest Consulting Group, for a period of one year, for On Call Building
Plan Check and Inspection Services, is exempt under the California Environmental
Quality Act (CEQA) in accordance with (a) CEQA Guidelines Section 15061(b)(3), the
general rule that CEQA only applies to projects that may have an effect on the
environment and (b) CEQA Guidelines Section 15268, because the proposed Amendment
No.2 involves the issuance of building permits which is a ministerial action; and
B. Approve Amendment No. 2 renewing the existing Services Agreement between the City
of Vernon and Interwest Consulting Group, for a period of one year, for On Call Building
Plan Check and Inspection Services. As revised, the contract would expire, effective July
1,2016.
Background
The City has an existing contract with Interwest Consulting Group for On Call Building Plan
Check and Inspection Services. The current contract allows the City to renew the contract for
one additional one year period. City staff is seeking approval to renew the contract for a one
year period.
Interwest Consulting Group was initially selected through a competitive selection process. The
then-Community Services and Water Department (current Department of Public Works, Water,
and Development Services) issued a Request for Proposal for On Call Building Plan Check and
Inspection Services. Six firms submitted proposals and ultimately JAS Pacific and Interwest
Consulting Group were selected for the subject work. During the course of the past two years,
Interwest Consulting Group has performed well and it is recommended that the contract be
renewed for a one year period. The fee for these services will remain unchanged.
Fiscal Impact
The total cost for services for the renewal period shall not exceed $50,000.00. The amount of
work varies greatly from month to month, but it is anticipated that the actual costs of services
will be much less than the not to exceed amount. The total amount of work performed during the
2013-14 year was approximately $12,500.00, this included Interwest Consulting Group
providing a full time electrical inspector for a little over a month while the City recruited a new
individual to fill this position. For 2014-15 no work was performed The Department budgeted
funds for this service in the 2015-2016 fiscal year budget.

Amendment No. 2 to the existing Services Agreement between the
City of Vernon and Jason Addison Smith Consulting Services dba
JAS Pacific for On Call Building Plan Check and Inspection Services
Recommendation
A. Find that Amendment No. 2 renewing the existing Services Agreement between the City of
Vernon and Jason Addison Smith Consulting Services dba JAS Pacific, for a period of one year,
for On Call Building Plan Check and Inspection Services, is exempt under the California
Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) in accordance with (a) CEQA Guidelines Section
15061(bX3), the general rule that CEQA only applies to projects that may have an effect on the
environment and (b) Guidelines Section 15268, because the proposed Amendment No. 2 involves
the issuance of building permits which is a ministerial action; and
B. Approve Amendment No. 2 renewing the existing Services Agreement between the City of
Vernon and Jason Addison Smith Consulting Services dba JAS Pacific, for a period of one year,
for On Call Building Plan Check and Inspection Services. As revised, the contract would expire,
effective July l, 2016.
Background
The City has an existing contract with Jason Addison Smith Consulting Services dba JAS Pacific
for On Call Building Plan Check and Inspection Services. The current contract allows the City to renew
the contract for one additional year. City staff is seeking approval to renew the contract for a one year
period.
JAS Pacific was initially selected through a competitive selection process. The then-Community
Services and Water Departrnent (current Department of Public Works, Water and Development Services)
issued a Request for Proposal for On Call Building Plan Check and Inspection Services. Six firms
submitted proposals and ultimately JAS Pacific and Interwest Consulting Group were selected for the
subject work. During the course of the year, JAS Pacific has performed well and it is recommended that
the contract be renewed for a one year period. All fees for services will remain the same.
Fiscal Impact
The total cost of services shall not exceed $50,000.00 for the duration of this renewal period. The
amount of work varies greatly from month to month, but it is anticipated that the actual costs of services
will be much less than the not to exceed amount. The total amount of work performed during the 2013-14
year was approximately $11,000.00 and for 2014-15 was approximately $10,000. The Department
budgeted funds for this service in the 2015-2016 fiscal year budget.

The Contractor shall submit his/her work Baseline Pqect Schedule, in electronic as well as hardtopy Iormat,
to the Director at the preronstruction meeting showing in detail how the Contractor plans to execute and
coordinate the Work. The construction schedule shall show the sequence of work, critical path and eslimated
time for completion of each segment of work. This schedule must be reviewed and accepted by the Director
before the Contractor will be permitted to begin work. ln addition, the Contractor shall submit a detailed
schedule forecasting two (2) weeks of work describing each day's work. This schedule shall be updated and
submitted to the City every other Monday during the construction period. The Contractor shall give 48 hours
notice to the City Engineer pnor to the start of the work.
1.At a minimum, the Baseline Project Schedule activities shall be coded on a work discipline basis
and by geographic area or location on the Pqect. The Baseline Project Schedule shall include a
detailed descnption of each activity code. The Baseline Pqect Schedule shall be based on and
incorporate contract mileslone and completion dates specified in the Contract Documents. lt
shall depict events, jobs, and their interrelationships and shall rectgnize the progress that must
be made on one task belore subsequent tasks can begin. The schedule shall be comprehensive
and shall include all logical interdependencies and interactions required to perform the Work of
the Pqect.

Prolect Schedule is accepted by the City, it shall be deemed part of the Contract Documents. lf
the Baseline Project Schedule is not accepted by City, Contractor shall revise the Baseline
POect Schedule, in accordance with the recommendations of the City, and re-submit same for
acceptance, no later than seven (7) calendar days after receipt of said remmmendation.
Acceptance of Baseline Project Schedule by City, failure to include an element of work, or
inaccuracy in Baseline Project Schedule shall not relieve Contractor from the responsibility for
accomplishing the Work in acmrdance with the Contract Documents.
Float
1 . Critical Work activities are defined as Work activities which, if delayed or extended, will delay the
scheduled completion of the milestones and/or time of complelion. All other Work activities are
defined as nonrntical Work activities and are mnsidered to have float. Float is defined as the
time that a non+ntical Work activity can be delayed or extended without delaying the scheduled
completion of the milestones and/or time of completion. Float is considered a Poect resource
ARTICLE 4

Format
4.02
available to either party or both parties as needed. Once identrfied, Contractor shall monitor,
account for, and maintain float in acmrdance with Critical Path Methodology.
2. Delays of any non+ritical Work shall not be the basis lor an extension of Contract Time until the
delays consume all float associated with that nonrritical Work activity and cause the Work
activity to become cntical.
3. lt is acknowledged that City{aused time savings (i.e., critical path submittal reviews returned in
less time than allowed by the Contract Documents, approval of substitution requests which result
in a savings of time for Contractor, etc.) create shared float. Acclrdingly, Cityraused delays
may be offset by City-caused time savings.
C. Early Completion
While the Contractor may schedule completion of the Project earlier than the date established by the
Contracl Documents, no additional mmpensation shall become due the Contractor for the use of float
time between the Contractor's proJected early completion date and the date for Substanlial
Completion established by the Contract Documents, unless an earlier (advanced) time of completion
is requested by Contractor, agreed to by the City, and formalized by Change Order.
SCHEDULE UPDATES
A. With each Application for Payment submitted by Contractor (other than the linal Application for
Payment), the Contractor shall submit to the City an updated Project Schedule revised to indicate the
Work completed, status of Work in progress, all progress slippages, mnective actions taken, or
slippage carryover, for all anticipated delays or difficulties, and all other informatron required to
accurately present the actual status of the progress of the Work as of the date of the Application for
Payment. lf the Contractor does not submit an updated Project Schedule with an Application for
Payment, City may withhold payment, in whole or in part, until the updated Project Schedule is
submitted. In the event that an udate to the Poect Schedule indicates a delay to the Contract Time
the Contractor shall propose an afflrmative plan to conect each such delay, including ove me and/or
additional labor, if necessary. ln no evenl shallany Project Schedule update constitute an adjustment
in the Contract Time, any deadline, or the Contract Sum unless any such adjustment is agreed to by
the City and authorized pursuant to Change Order or Work Directive,
B. At no time shall historical data mntained within the updated Poject Schedule (i.e. completed
activities) be removed andior altered in any way. This historical data is to be preserved within each of
the updated Pmject Schedules and submitted with the final schedule update to reflect the actual start
and finish dates for each activity within the Schedule.
C. Any work stoppages within individual work activities that exceed seven (7) calendar days in duration
shall be clearly indicated within the updated Project Schedule, ln cases where unplanned activity
work stoppages exceed seven (7) calendar days activities shall be added to the Project Schedule to
clearly indicate the work stoppage period and identify forecasted resumption and completion of the
activity where work has stopped. Contractor shall clearly note all schedule revisions when Project
Schedule udates are submitted, as required in this Paragraph 4.02 above.
NONCOMPENSABLE EXTRAORDINARY MEASURES
A. Should the City determine, in its sole judgment, that the performance of the Work has not progressed
to the level of completion required by the Contract Documents, City shall have the right to order the

4.04
Contractor to take corTective measures to expedite the pogress of construction, at no additional cost
to the City, including, without limitation, the following:
1. Working additional shifts of overtime.
2. Supplying additional manpower, equipment, and/or facilities.
3. Reschedule activities to maximize practical concunence of accomplishment ofaclivities.
4. Submitting a Remvery Schedule discussed above, for resequencing performance of the Work or
other similar measures.
5. Any other actions that may be necessary to mitigate delays.
B. Such Extraordinary Measures shall continue until the progress of the Work is no longer behind
schedule and/or reaches the stage of completion required by the Contract Documents, Contractor
shall not be entitled to an adjustment in the Contract Sum in connectron with the performance of any
such Extraordinary l\,leasures required by the City under this Paragraph. The City may exercise the
rights fumished the City pursuant to this Paragraph as frequently as the City deems necessary to
ensure that the Contracto/s performance of the Work will mmply with the Contract Time or interim
completion dates set forth in the Contract Documents. lf Contractor or its Subcontractors fail to
implement or commence Extraordinary Measures within ten (10) calendar days of City's written
demand, City may, without prejudice to other remedies, take corective aclion at the expense of the
Contractor which shall reduce the Contract Sum accordingly.
CONOITION OF PAYMENT
Compliance by Contractor with the requirements of the Contract Documents pertaining to preparation,
submission, revising and updating of the Schedule is a mndition precedent to City's obligation to make
payment to Contractor of any or all sums that might otheMise be due to Contractor in the absence of such
noncomp ance. Payment by City under circumstances in which City, for any reason, fails or elects not to
assert its nght to withhold payment for noncompliance with this Paragraph shall not be construed as a waiver
of the right to withhold future payments on account of such noncompliance or any other noncompliance,

A. Alternative Methods of Pricing
The amount of any adjustment by Change order or Construction Change Directive increasing or
decreasing the Contract Sum shall be determined by the Director using one or a combination of the
following methods:
1. Lump Sum. By mutual acceptance of a lump sum proposal from Contractor propedy itemized
and supported by sufficient substantialing data to permit evaluation, Such poposal shall be

Ups, as delined in Subparagraph 6.06-E, and shall not include any costs or expense that is not
permitted by the terms of any provision of the Contract Documents.
2, Unit Prices. By unit prices contained in Contractor's original Bid and inmrporated in the

Values allocates general conditions costs to individual line items, in which case no percentage
of the decrease shall be added. When a change consists of both addition and deletion of
Work, the added costs and deleted costs shall be calculated separately, and then added
together, resulting in the net mst for the change. The Allowable Mark-Up shall be applied to
this net c!st.

The Contractor shall provide current test results and a Certificate of Compliance for emulsified
recycling agent at the time of mix design submittal and for each load delivered to the
jobsite. During cold in-place recycling operations, the Contractor shall obtain two I -liter samples of
emulsified recycling agent from each load delivered to the project. One sample shall be used for the
Contractor's quality control testing. The remaining samples shall be delivered to the City Engineer
at the end of each working day. Emulsified recycling agent shall be sampled in plastic containers
that are clean. dry, and properly sealed. The Contractor shall also "sieve test" each load of emulsion
before accepting delivery. Any load which does not pass the sieve test shall be refused and not
incorporated into the work.

Rubberized crack filler, pavement markers, loop wires, thermoplastic markers, fabric and other like
materials that may be incorporated into the RAP as it is removed from the roadway shall be
removed by the screening process. A minor amount of these residual materials that cannot be
completely removed from the processed RAP may be incorporated into the recycled mix if the
Contractor can demonstrate that those added materials will not adversely affect the performance of
the recycled asphalt pavement. Any such materials retained in the mix shall be appropriately sized
and blended so as not to adversely affect the appearance or strength of the recycled pavement.
Crushed and screened RAP shall not be stockpiled for longerthan l0 days or in stockpiles greater
than l5 feet in height that may, through the weight of the stockpile, reconsolidate the crushed and
screened RAP. Water shall be added to the RAP as it is screened and crushed to abate dust and
mitigate reconsolidation.
B-17.03 Water - Water may be added to facilitate the uniform mixing of the emulsified recycling
agent and the processed RAP. Water added to the recycled asphalt concrete shall be potable, clean
and free from deleterious concentrations of acids, alkalis, salts. sugar and other organic or chemical
substances. The water shall not contain an amount of impurities that will cause a reduction in the
strength of the recycled asphalt concrete. If the water is of questionable quality, it shall be tested in

B-17.04 Additives - If necessary other additives such as cement or lime, in a dry or slurry form
may be added to the recycled pavement mixture to meet the requirements of Table I and to aid in
curing and early strength gain. Any recycling additives used including type, source and percentage
used shall be described in the job mix formula submittal. lnclude the process for incorporating a
recycling additive into the CCPR mixture in the job mix formula submittal.
B- I 8.00 Construction Methods
B-18.01 Weather Limitations - Recycling and placement operations shall not be performed during
wet conditions or if rain or cold conditions (less than 45'F) are imminent or predicted to exist at any
time. "lmminent or predicted" is defined as being forecasted within a 48-hour period on the
National Weather Service Web Site http://www.wrh.noaa.eov for the most representative and
nearest location listed where recycling is to begin and end.
Recycling and placement operations shall not be performed unless the ambient temperature is a
minimum of 45'F and unless the National Weather Service Web Site forecasts that the ambient
temperature will be a minimum of 60'F within 3 hours after the start of placement operations and
will remain above 60"F throughout the recycling operation until all initial compaction and
protection efforts have been completed for that day's run.
Recycling mixing operations shall be ceased if actual ambient temperatures drop below
60oF any time after the initial 3-hour window following start-up. In the event CCPR pavement is
placed and weather conditions deteriorate soon after, it is then a requirement that all traffic stay off
the recycled mat until weather conditions improve (temperature rises and humidity drops) and the
recycled section has "cured" sufficiently for secondary compaction to take place in accordance with
the Cure and Maintenance requirements of this specification. The Contractorwill be responsible
for maintaining and protecting the recycled surface. Any recycled asphalt surfacing damaged by
inclement weather shall be replaced by the Contractor at the Contractor's expense as directed by the
City Engineer.
B-18.02 Full Depth Asphalt Removal- Shall be in accordance with Section 300-l of the Standard
Specifications. Contractor shall remove entire asphalt section without disturbing or introducing any
subgrade materials to the asphalt millings. Asphalt shall be removed separately from the removals
of base or native materials as to not contaminate the asphalt millings.
B-18.03 Subgrade and Surface Preparation - Prior to placing recycled pavement the subgrade
soils/base shall be properly prepared, moisture treated and compacted to a minimum of 95 percent
relative compaction based upon ASTM D 1557 so as to create an evenly graded, unyielding surface.
If the recycled pavement is to be placed on an existing milled pavement surface it shall be verified
that the milled surface is firm and unyielding and there are no subgrade failure areas beneath the
milled surface that might compromise the integrity of the recycled pavement. When CCPR
pavement is placed on a milled surface or adjacent to structures such as curbs, concrete gutters,
swales, planters, etc... these contact surfaces shall be swept of all loose material to create a dry
clean surFace. A tack coat of SS-l h emulsion, emulsified recycling agent or equivalent (0.05 gallon
per square yard minimum) shall be applied to all surface areas prior to placing the recycled
cs-0534 21 of 36
EXHIBIT B -SPECIAL PROVISIONS
pavement. CCPR pavement is not recommended as a direct overlay on existing asphalt pavement
without first milling the underlying pavement to aid in bonding and to prevent slippage. Successive
layers of recycled pavement may be paved without milling but requires that each layer be fully
cured and compacted before placing the overlay section. See "Placement" in these specifications.
B-18.04 Mixing and Proportioning - The recycled material shall be processed through a material
sizing unit having screening and crushing capabilities to reduce the RAP to the maximum size of l-
inch without producing "fines" passing the No. 200 sieve in excess of 5o/o prior to mixing with the
emulsifi ed recyc ling agent.
After crushing and sizing, the recycled material shall be processed in a mixing unit capable of
processing the sized RAP, emulsified recycling agent, water and any additives to a homogeneous
mixture to produce recycled asphalt concrete. The mixing unit shall be equipped with a belt scale
for the continuous weighing of the RAP and a coupled/interlocked computer-controlled liquid
metering device. The mixing unit shall be an on-board completely self-contained counter rotating
twin shaft pugmill appropriately rated by the manufacturer for the production levels used by the
Contractor. The liquid metering device shall be capable of automatically adjusting the flow of
emulsified recycling agent to compensate for any variation in the weight of the RAP introduced into
the pugmill. Emulsified recycling agent shall be metered by weight of RAP using a mass flow,
coriolis effect, type meter that will accurately measure the amount of emulsified recycling agent to
within 0.5 percent of the amount required by the mix design or as adjusted in the field and approved
by the City Engineer. Other additives, including water as required, shall be controlled and metered
using the weight of the RAP introduced into the pugmill. Additives may be introduced
volumetrically or by weight per the mix design. The CCPR Contractor shall calibrate and verify
the accuracy of the recycle plant not less than five days before recycle operations are to begin.
Automatic digital readings shall be displayed for both the flow rate and total amount of RAP,
emulsified recycling agent, and additives in appropriate units of weight and time.
The emulsified recycling agent, additives and water shall be incorporated into the graded RAP at the
initial rate determined by the mix design and approved by the City Engineer. The total water
content shall include that amount present in the stockpile and additional mixing water at the pugmill
if required. Adjustments in the rate of emulsified recycling agent, additives and water shall be
determined by the Qualified Technician and made as necessary based on the coating, compaction
and breaking properties of the recycling emulsion. Sampling variations and mix design may
determine the necessity of different levels of emulsified recycling agent and/or additives in various
sections of the project.
When a paving fabric is encountered during the cold planing operation, the CCPR Contractor shall
make the necessary changes in equipment or operations so that incorporation of the shredded fabric
in the recycled material does not affect the performance parameters of the recycled asphalt concrete,
or inhibit placing or compaction of the CCPR pavement. No fabric piece incorporated into the
recycled section shall have any dimension exceeding a length of 2-inches. The Contractor shall be
required to remove and properly dispose of oversized pieces of paving fabric as directed by the City
Engineer. Similarly, loop wires, pavement markers, rubberized crack fill materials, thermoplastic
marking materials, milled concrete, and other materials that may be incorporated into the RAP
through the milling process shall be removed from the recycled material unless the Contractor can
cs-0534 22 ot36
EXHIBIT B -SPECIAL PROVISIONS
demonstrate that minor amounts of residual materials that remain will not compromise the integity
of the recycled asphalt.
B-18.05 Transpoftation - Trucks with smooth clean beds shall be used to haulthe recycled asphalt
concrete mixture to the placement area. The loaded trucks shall deliver the blended material into
the paver within I hour of mixing or before the emulsion begins to break and set, whichever time is
earlier.
B-18.06 Placement - Recycled pavement shall be spread using a self-propelled paver having
electronic grade and cross slope control for the screed. The equipment shall be of sufficient size and
power (minimum l70hp) to spread the recycled material in one continuous pass, without
segregation, to the lines and grades established by the City Engineer and according to Plans.
Heating of the paver screed is not permitted.
CCPR pavement shall be placed to the finished thickness as specified by the City Engineer. A
single lift thickness shall be at a minimum compacted depth of 2-inches and not exceed a maximum
compacted depth of 4-inches. Before placing any additional lifts, the recycled surface shall be
allowed to cure until the moisture of the material is reduced to 2.0 percent or less or has remained in
place for a minimum of l0 days without rainfall upon the City Engineer's approval. Compaction of
the first layer, and any subsequent layers to be overlaid shall be performed and verified per the
Compaction and Cure and Maintenance requirements of this specification. Prior to installing any
additional lifts, contact surfaces shall be carefully swept of all loose material to create a dry clean
surface. A tack coat of emulsified recycling agent or equivalent (0.05 gallon per square yard
minimum) shall be applied to all surlace areas prior to placing any additional lifts.
When a pick-up machine is used for transferring the recycled material from a windrow to the
receiving hopper of the paver, the pick-up machine shall be capable of removing and transferring
the entire windrow of recycled mix in a single pass.
Handwork of CCPR pavement shall be minimized and care shall be taken to prevent segregation.
The wings of the paver shall be emptied regularly to prevent buildup and to minimize segregation.
B-18.07 Compaction - Compacting the recycled mix shall be completed using self-propelled
rollers, with properly operating scrapers, and water spray systems. Rollers of the vibratory-steel
drum and pneumatic tired type shall be used. They shall be in good condition, capable of operating
at slow speeds to avoid displacement ofthe mixture.
Compaction operations shall start no more than l5 minutes behind the paver, unless the ambient
temperature is below 60 deg F. For each 5 deg below 60 deg F another l0 minutes can elapse
before rolling begins, or at the direction of the Qualified Technician and/or Engineer. The number,
weight and types of rollers shall be as necessary to obtain the required compaction. At a minimum
the following rollers shall be used:
o At least one pneumatic roller with a minimum gross operating weight of not less than 25
tons.
o Tires on the pneumatic rollers shall be evenly inflated and matched in size and profile so as
to maximize compactive effort.
cs-0534 23 of 36
EXHIBIT B -SPECIAL PROVISIONS
. At least one double drum steel vibratory roller with a gross operating weight of not less than
l0 tons with a minimum drum diameter of at least 60-inches.
Rolling pattems shall be established in the field by the Contractor and verified by the City Engineer
to achieve a maximum density determined by nuclear density testing. A rolling pattern for
compaction shall be determined such that no increase in density is shown on successive nuclear
density tests (per ASTM D 2950) for any additional passes of the compaction equipment once the
maximum density pattern has been identified ("break over point"). Nuclear density testing shall be
repeated throughout the time compaction is being completed to continuously verify the compaction
is achieving maximum density results by establishing a rolling vs. density chart that shows the
progress of densification from initial breakdown compaction through maximum obtainable density
at the break over point.
Care shall be taken not to over compact the mat. A Qualified Technician shall be on site and
observing all compaction efforts, monitoring density gauge readings, and approving areas as they
reach maximum density. The minimum rolling pattem shallbe as follows:
o Two complete coverages with the double drum steel vibratory roller immediately after the
recycled mix is placed. The first coverage shall be made without the vibratory unit turned
on and the second with the vibratory unit operating.
o Two complete coverages with the pneumatic-tired roller shall be made after the initial
passes of the steelroller.
o Final rolling, before cure, to eliminate pneumatic tire marks and to achieve maximum
density shall be done by the double drum steel roller, either operating in a static or vibratory
mode.
The recycled mat shall be continuously observed during compaction efforts. If moisture cracking
occurs under the vibratory compaction mode, the vibrators shall be tumed offand static rolling only
applied. If moisture cracking of the mat continues under static steel rolling, steel drum compaction
shall cease, the mat shall be allowed to cure for a time in order for some moisture to escape, and
pneumatic rolling commenced, followed by steel rolling to iron out irregularities from the rubber-
tired roller(s). This procedure shall be followed until there is no longer any displacement of the mat
observed by roller action on the recycled surface.
The selected rolling pattem shall be followed unless changes in the recycled mix or placement
conditions occur and a new rolling pattem is established at that time. Any type of rolling that causes
cracking, major displacement and/or any other type of pavement distress shall be discontinued until
such time as the problem can be resolved. Discontinuation and commencement of rolling
operations shall be at the discretion of the City Engineer.
Extra care shall be taken to ensure that aggregate from the recycled mixture does not stick to the
drums or wheels of the rollers. Water shall be uniformly applied to the wheels and drums, along
with mechanical means to keep aggregate from sticking. Sufficient water shall be applied to keep
rollers and tires clean, but not so much that water pools or ponds on the recycled surface.
Rollers shall not be started or stopped on uncompacted recycled material. Rolling pattems shall be
established so that starting and stopping shall be on previously compacted material or the adjacent,
cs-0534 24 of 36
EXHIBIT B -SPECIAL PROVISIONS
existing surfacing.
B-18.08 Cure and Maintenance - After the completion of compaction of the recycled material, no
traffic, including that of the Contractor, shall be permitted on the recycled material for at least two
hours. This may be reduced if sufficient care is established for traffic that will not initiate raveling.
A fog seal of dilute (l:l) SS-lh emulsion, emulsified recycling agent or equivalent (0.08 to 0.12
gallon per square yard) may need to be applied after initial compaction or after the secondary
compaction, as outlined below, to all areas opened to significant traffic depending on curing of the
CCPR pavement. If necessary to prevent pickup of the fog seal, the recycled pavement surface shall
be covered with sand at a rate of 1.0 to 2.0 pounds per square yard. Excess sand shall be removed
from the pavement surlace by careful sweeping. Sand shall be free from clay or organic material.
Fog sealing and/or sanding shall be initiated at the City Engineer's direction.
All longitudinal and perpendicular edges shall be ramped with temporary asphalt before it is opened
to traffic so there are no drop-offs.
After opening to traffic, the surface of the recycled pavement shall be maintained in a condition
suitable for the safe movement of traffic. Before placing the final surfacing, the recycled surface
shall remain in-place:
o For a minimum of 2 days and until there is less than 2.0 percent moisture remaining in the
recycled pavement mixture; or
o A minimum of l0 days without rainfall.
B-18.09 Secondary Compaction - Two complete coverages (minimum), after cure and before
placing any AC overlay or other surface seal shall be conducted with the pneumatic and steel drum
roller. A rolling pattern shall be reestablished to determine the maximum density of final rolling.
Density of the recycled pavement shall be verified behind the secondary compaction by nuclear
density gauge. A rolling pattern for the secondary compaction shall be determined such that no
increase in density is shown on successive nuclear density tests (per ASTM D 2950) for any
additional passes of the compaction equipment once the maximum density paffem has been
identified. Nuclear density testing shall be repeated throughout the time secondary compaction is
being completed to continuously verify that the secondary compaction is achieving maximum
density results. Care shall be taken not to over compact the mat. A Qualified Technician shall be
on site and observing all secondary compaction efforts, monitoring density gauge readings, and
approving areas as they reach maximum density.
The Contractor shall protect and maintain the recycled surface from nuisance water, other
deleterious substances, and/or any other damage. Any damage to the completed recycled material
shall be repaired by the Contractor prior to the placement of new asphalt concrete or final surface
sealing. Areas damaged shall be excavated to the depth directed by the City Engineer and/or filled
and compacted with new asphalt concrete. All loose particles that may develop on the pavement
surface shall be removed prior to the final surface course. No direct payment will be made and
costs shall be included elsewhere for protection and maintenance of the recycled asphalt concrete
pavement.
Prior to any overlay with asphalt concrete, the recycled pavement should be carefully swept of all
loose material to create a dry clean surface. A tack coat of SS-lh emulsion, emulsified recycling
cs-0534 25 of 36
EXHIBIT B -SPECIAL PROVISIONS
agent or equivalent (0.05 gallon per square yard minimum) shall be applied to all surface areas.
B-18.10 Smoothness - The finished surface and grade of the recycled material shall be checked
regularly during placement using a level. The smoothness shall not vary more than tA inch from a
l0-foot straight edge placed on the surface. The Contractor shall correct humps or depressions
exceeding this tolerance. High points may be trimmed if approved by the City Engineer in the field.
B-l 9.00 Material Acceptance
B-19.01 Gradation - A sample shall be obtained for each 500 tons of RAP addition to verifr the
maximum particle size requirement is being met. The first sample and every third sample thereafter

Each sample shall be labeled with the date and time sampled and the bill of lading number from the
delivery vehicle. Emulsion samples shall be retained and protected from damage or contamination
by the Contractor until the project is accepted.
B-19.03 Emulsified Recycling Agent Content - Emulsion content shall be checked and recorded
for each segment in which the percentage is changed. Emulsion content changes shall be made
based upon if coating and adequate dispersion is not being achieved and if the mix design indicates
the CCPR pavement will be stable. Emulsified recycling agent content shall be checked from the
belt scale totalizer and asphalt pump totalizer, verified by the delivery weight tickets.
B-19.04 Additives - A Certificate of Compliance from the additive manufacturer shall accompany
each shipment to the Project.

lowest Bidder. If the City rejects all other Bids presented and re-advertises, the

advenising and receiving new Bids. In that case, the surplus if any, will be
returned to the original lowest Bidder.
D. The Bid Security shall be held for ninety (90) calendar days after the award of the
Contract or until posting by the successful Bidder of the payment and
performance bonds, proof of insurance, retum of executed copies of the Contract
and necessary certification(s), whichever first occurs, after which time the Bid
Security will be returned to all Bidders.
E. If a Bid Bond is to be submitted, Bidder shall use the form entitled "Bid Bond"
contained in the Bidding Documents, which Bid Bond shall be properly executed
and acknowledged by the Bidder and by a corporate surety authorized to transact
such business in the State of California.

QUALIFICATIONS

form entitled "Bidder's Statement of Qualifications." Subcontractors listed forthe
traffic signal and striping work must satisfy the mandatory qualifications
described in the Specialty Contractor or Subcontractor Statement of
Qualifications applicable to the Work to be performed by each Subcontractor and
Bidder must submit the completed forms with the Bid. Notwithstanding the
provisions of Paragraph 22 herein, the Bidder's Statement of Qualifications and
the Specialty Contractor or Subcontractor Statement of Qualifications shall not be
public records. All information required by a Bidder's or Specialty Contractor
Statement of Qualifications shall be completely and fully provided. If no
information is to be filled in a blank space, then write "none." Any Bid not
accompanied by a Bidder's Statement of Qualifications and Specialty Contractor
or Subcontractor Statement of Qualifications form completed with all information
required may render the Bid non-responsive. If the City determines that any
information provided by a Bidder in the Bidder's or Specialty Contractors'
Statement of Qualifications is false or misleading, or is incomplete so as to be
false or misleading, the City may reject the Bid submitted by such Bidder as being
non-responsive.
B. A responsible Bidder is a Bidder who has demonstrated the attribute of
trustworthiness, as well as quality, fitness, capacity and experience to
satisfactorily perform fully the requirements of the contract documents. In
selecting the lowest responsible Bidder, consideration will be given not only to
the Bidder's financial standing but also to the general competency of the Bidder
INSTRUCTION TO BIDDERS Contract No. CS-0534
for the performance of the work covered by the Bid including, but not limited to,
the experience of the Bidder in construction of public buildings for public
agencies. By submitting a Bid, each Bidder agrees that the City, in determining
the successful Bidder and its eligibility for the award, may consider the Bidder's
experience with similar types of construction projects and facilities, conduct and
performance under other contracts, financial condition, reputation in the industry,
and other factors which could affect the Bidder's performance of the work.

and Subcontracting Fair Practice Act, Public Contract Code Section 4104. The

the Subcontractor will perform, the location (address) of the Subcontractor's place
of business, each Subcontractor's license number, and the dollar value of each
Subcontractor's labor or services. If additive Alternate Bid ltems are included in

performance of the Work, each listed Subcontractor shall possess a current and

listed for such Subcontractor, and hold all specialty certifications required for
such Work.
C. Disqualification of a Subcontractor. The City has the right to review the
suitability and qualifications of any Subcontractor proposed by the Bidder. As
part of this review, the City may request a Bidder to submit additional information
about one or more of the listed Subcontractors-including, but not limited to-a
statement detailing the Subcontractor's experience with pertinent information as
to similar projects and other evidence of the Subcontractor's qualifications. If
requested, the Bidder shall provide the information to the City within the time
specified in the City's written request. After due investigation, if the City has a
reasonable objection to any proposed Subcontractor, the City may, before giving
the notice of award, require the apparent successful Bidder to submit an
acceptable substitute. The City's disqualification of a Subcontractor does not
disqualify a Bidder. However, prior to and as a condition to award of the
Contract, the successful Bidder shall substitute a properly licensed and qualified
Subcontractor without an adjustment of the Bid Price.
D. Work of Subcontractors. The organization or arrangement of the Specifications
and Drawings do not limit the extent of the Work for the Contract Documents.

Work on the Project with any Subcontractor who is ineligible to perform work on
a public works project pursuant to California Labor Code Sections 1777.1 or

be rejected.

of others shall be at the expense of the Bidder to whom the Contract may be

local streets for this project and placing the recycled asphalt back to the streets as base course ready to receive new
asphalt concrete overlay. The RAP shall be clean, free of contamination of dirt, base, concrete or other deleterious
materials. The stockpiled RAP shall be crushed and screened to a graded aggregab blend with 100% of the crushed
RAP passing a f -inch sieve and fines (particles passing No. 200 sieve) at less than or equalto 5%. The properly
graded RAP to be recycled shall then be blended wilh an ernulsified asphalt recycling agent, and other additives, as
required by the CCPR Contraclor's Mix Design, to produce a recycled asphalt concrete. This material shall then be
placed and compacted in accordance with the Plans and these Special Provisions and as directed by the Engineer.
Construction Methods
Weather Limitations - Recycling and placement operations shall not be performed during wet conditions or if rain or
cold conditions (less than 50"F) are imrninent or predicted to exist at any time. "lmminent or predicted" is defined as
being forecasted within a 48-hour period on the NationalWeather Service Web Site http:/iwww.wrh,!gaa.qov for the
most representative and nearest location listed where recycling is to begin and end.
Recycling and placement operations shall not be performed unless the ambierrt temperature is a minimum of 50'F
and unless the National Weather Service Web Site forecasb that the ambient temperature will be a minimum of 60"F
withln 3 hours after the start of placement operations and will remain above 60"F throughout the recycling operation
until all initiat compaction and protection efforts have been completed for that day's run,
Recycling mixing operations shall be ceased if actual ambient temperatures drop below 60'F anytime after the initial
3-hour window following start-up. ln the event CCPR pavement is placed and weather conditions deteriorate soon
after, it is then a requirement that all traffic stay off tlre recycled mat until weather conditions improve (temperature
rises and humidity drops) and the recycled section has "cured' sufficiently for secondary compaction to take place in
accordarre with the Cure and Maintenance requiements of this specification. The Confactor will be responsble for
maintaining and protecting the recycled surface. Any recycled asphatt surfacing damaged by inclement weather sltall
be replaced by the Contractor at the Contractor's expense as directed by the Engineer.
Full Depth Asphalt Removal- The existing asphaft pavement will be milled to the depths specified, loaded onto
trucks, transported, and stockpiled at the site designated for recycling. Contractor shall remove entire asphalt section
without disturbing or inlroducing any subgrade materials to the asphatt millings. Asphalt shall be removed separately
from the removals of base or nalive materials as to not contaminate the asphalt millings.
Central Plant Location - The City designates a city owned property/parcel for use to set up a central plant, The
Contractor shall apply for a temporary use permit (TUP) from the City's Planning Division in order to use. The
Contractor shall not have use of the area until the TUP has been issued. Fees for the TUP will be the
responsibility of the Contractor. The central plant area shall be thoroughly cleaned of all excess material and left
in a neat, orderly appearance upon completion of the project.
Mixing and Proportioning - The recycled material shall be processed through a material sizing unit having
screening and crushing capabilities to reduce the RAP to the maxinrum size of 1-inch withoui producing "fines'
passing the No. 200 sieve in excess of 5% prior to mixing Wth the emulsified recycling agent.
After crushing and sizing, the recycled material shall be processed in a mixing unit capable of processirrg the sized
RAP, enrulsffied recycling agent, water and any additives lo a homogeneous mixture to produce recycled asphalt
concrete, The mixing unit shall be equipped with a beli scale for the continuous tveighing of the RAP and a
coupled/interlocked computer-confolled liquid metering device. The mixing unit shall be an on-board completely self-
contained counter rotating twin shaft pug mill appropriately rated by the manufacturer for the producfon levels used
by the Contractor. The liquid metering device shall be capable of automatically adjusting the flow of emulsified
recycling agent to compensate for any variation in the weight of the RAP introduced into the pug mill. Emulsified
recycling agent shall be metered by weight of RAP using a mass flow coriolis effect, type meter that will accurately
measure the amount of emulsified recycling agent to within 0.5 percent of the amount required by the mix design or
as adjusted in the field and approved by the Engineer. Other additives, including water as required, shall be
controlled and metered using the weight of the RAP introduced into the pug mill. Additives may be introduced
volurnetrically or by weight per the mix design. The CCPR Conhactor shall calibrate andior verify the accuracyof the
recycle plant not less tlran five days before recycle operatons are to begin.
Autonratic digital readings shall be displayed for both the flow rate and total amount of RAP, emulsified recycling
agent, and additives in appropriate Lrnits of weight and tinte.
The emulsified recycling agent, additives and water shall be incorporatsd into the graded RAP at the initial rate
determined by the mix Oesign and approved by the Engineer, The total water content shall include that amount
present in the stockpile and iaanionai mixing water at the pug rnill if required. Adjustments in the rate of emulsified
recycling agent, additives and water shall be determined by the Qualified Technician and made as necessary based
on ihe coa[ing, compaction and breaking propertes of the recycling emulsion, Sampling variations and mix design
may determinL the necessity of different levels of emulsified recycling agenl and/or additives in various sections of the
project. For this project, an average daily production of 1500 tons is estimated.
When a paving fabric is encountered during the cold rnilling operation, the CCPR Contractor shall make the
necessary cnariges in equipment or operationl so that incorporalion of the shredded fabr'rc in the recycled material
does not affect t-he performance parameters of the recycled asphalt concrete, or inhibit placing or compaclion of the
CCPR pavement. No fabric piece incorporated into lhe recycled section shall have any dirrrension exceeding a length
of 2-inches The Contractor shall be required to remove and properly dispose of oversized pieces of paving fabric as
directed by the Engineer, Similarly, loop wires, pavement markers, rubberized crack fill materials, thermoplastic
marking niaterials, irilled con"rete, and other materials that may be incorporatsd into lhe RAP through the milling
process strall be removed from the recycled material unless the Contractor can demonsbate that minor amounts of
residual materials that remain will not compromise the integrity of the recycled asphalt.
Transportation - Trucks with smooth clean beds shall be used to haul the recycled asphalt concrete mixture to the
placement area. The loaded trucks shall deliver the btended malerial into the paver rr,rithin t hour of mixing or before
the emulsion begins to break and set, whichever time is earlier,
placement - Recycled pavement shall be spread using a self-propelled track paver having eleclronic grade and
cross slope controlfor the screed. The equipment shall b: of sufficient size and power (minimum 170 hp) to spread
the recycled material in one continuous pass, without segrega$on, to the lines and grades established by the
Engineer and according to Plans. Heating of the paver screed is not oe..rmitted.
CCpR pavement shall be placed to the finished thickness as specrfied by the Engineer. A single lift thickness shall be
at a minimum compacted depth of 2-inches and not exceed a maximum compacted dePth of 4-inches. Before placing
any additionat lifts, the r""yilud surface shall be allowed to cure until the moisture of the material is reduced to 2.0
peicent or less or has remained in place for a rninimum of '10 days without rainfall upon the Engineer's approval,
bompaction of the first layer, and any subsequent layers to be overlaid shall be peformed and verified per the
Compaction and Cure and Maintenince requirements of this specification. Prior to installing any additionallifts,
contact sudaces shall be carefully swept of ali loose material to create a dry clean surface, A tack coat of SS'1h
emulsion, ernulsified recycling agent oi equivalent (0.05 gallon per square yard minimum) shall be applied to all
surface areas prior to placing any additional lifts.
wherr a pick-up machine is used for transferring the recycled material from a windrow to the receiving hopper of the
paver, the pick-up machine shall be capable Jt removlng and transferrirrg the entire windrow of recycled mix in a
single pass.
Flandwork of CCPR pavement shall be minimized and care shatl be taken to prevent segregation. The wings of the
paver shall be emptied regularlyto prevent buildup and to minimize segregation.
shall be completed using self-propelled rollers, complete with properly
.['li:?.'J.']?J.?li,',i7;i.3ii'#fr T'f iJ-',ftx'l.,]ffi :Hl-ily"*
Compaction operalions shall start no more than 20 ss the ambient temperature is
below 60 deg F. For each 5 deg below 60 deg p before rolling begins, or at the
direction of thl Qualified Techniciin andlor Engineer of rollers shall be as necessary
to obtain the required compaction' At a minimum the follo
At least one pneumatic roller with a r-ninimum gross openating weight of not less than 25 tons. Tires on he pneumatic
rollers shall be evenly inflated and matched in size and pr rfile so as to maximize compaction effort'
At least one double drunr steel vibratory roller with a gross operating weight of not less than 10 tons with a minimum
drum diameter of at least 60-inches.
Rolling patterns shall be established in the field by the Contractor and verified by the Engineer to achieve a maximum
densrty determined by nuclear density testing. A rolling pattern for compaction shall be determined such that no
increase in density is shown on successive nuclear density tests (per ASTM D 2950) for any additional passes of the
compaction equipment once the maximum density pattern has been identified ("break over point"). Nuclear density
testing shall be repeated throughout tlre time compaction is being completed to continuously verify the compaction is
achieving maximum Censity results by establishing a rolling vs. density chart that shows the progress of densification
from initial breakdovvn compaction through maximum obtainable density at the break over point.
Care shall be taken not to over compact the mat. A Qualified Technician shall be on site and observing all
compaction efforts, monitoring density gauge readings, and approving areas as they reach maximum density. The
minimum rolllng pattern shall be as follows:
Two complete coverages with the double drum sleel vibratory roller immediately after the recycled mix is placed. The
first coverage shall be made without the vibratory unit turned on and the second with the vibratory unit operating.
Two complete coverages wilh the pneumatic{ired roller shall be made after the initial passes of the steel roller.
Final rolling, before cure, to eliminale pneumatic tire marks and to achieve maximum density shall be done by the
double drum steel roller, either operating in a static or vibratory mode.
The recycled mat shall be continuously observed during compaction efforts. lf moisture cracking occurs under the
vibratory compaction mode, the vibrators shall be turned off and static rolling only applied. lf moisture cracking of the
mat continues under ststic steel rolling, steel drum compaction shall cease, the mat shall be allowed to cure for a time
in order for some moisture to escape, and pneumatic rolling commenced, followed by steel rolling to iron out
irregularities from the rubber-tired rolle(s). This procedure slrall be followed until there is no longer any displacenrent
of the mat observed by roller action on the recycled surface.
The selected rolling pattern shall be followed unless changes h the recycled mix or placement conditions occur and a
new rolling pattern is established at lhat time. Any type of rolling that causes cracking, major displacement and/or any
other type of pavement distress shall be discontinued until such time as the problem can be resolved. Discontinuation
and commencement of rolling operations shall be at the discretion of the Engineer.
Extra care shall be taken to ensure that aggregate fiom the recycled mixture does nol stick to the drums or wheels of
the rollers. Water shall be uniformly applied to the wheels and drums, along with mechanical means to keep
aggregate from sticking. Sufficient water shall be applied to keep rollers and tires clean, but not so much thai water
pools or ponds on the recycled surface,
Rollers shall not be started or stopped on un-compacted recycled material. Rolling patterns shall be estabtished so
that starting and stopping shall be on previously compacted material or the adjacent, existing surfacing.
Cure and Maintenance - After the completion of compaction of the recycled material, no faffic, including that of the
Contractor, shalt be permitted on the recycled material for at least two hours. This nray be reduced f sufficient care is
eslablished for traffic that will not initiate raveling. A fog sealof dilute (1;1) SS-1h emulsion, emulsified recycling agent
or equivalent (0,08 to 0,12 gallon per square yard) may need to be applied after initial compaction or after the
secondary compaction, as oullined below, to all areas opened to significant traffic depending on curing of the CCPR
pavement. lf necessary to prevent pickup of the fog seal, the recycled pavement surface shall be covered with sand
atarateofl.0to2.0poundspersquareyard, Excesssandshall beremovedfromthepavementsurfacebycareful
sweeping, Sand shall be free fronr clay or organic material. Fog sealing and/or sanding shatl be initiated at the
Engineer's direction.
After opening to traffic, the surface of the recycled pavement shall be maintained in a condition suitable for the safe
nrovement of traffic. Before placing the final surfacing, the recycled surface shall remain in-place:. For a minimum of 2 days and until there is less than 2.0 percent nroisture remaining in the recycled pavement
mixture; or. A minimum of 10 days without rainfall.
Secondary Compaction - Two complete coverages (mininrum), after cure and before placing any AC overlay or
other surface seal shall be conducted with the pneumatic and steel drum roller. A rolling pattern shall be
reestablished to determine the maximunr density of final rolling. Density of the recycled pavement shall be verilied
behind tlre secondary compaction by nuclear density gauge. A rolting pa[tern for the secondary compaction shall be
delermined such lhat no increase in density is showrr on successive nuclear density tests (per ASTM D 2950) for any
additional passes of the compaction equipment once the maximum densily pattern has been identified. Nuclear
density testing shall be repeated throughoutthe time secondary compaclion is being completed to continuouslyverify
that the secondary compaction is achieving maximum density results. Care shall be taken not to over compact the
mat. A Qualified Technician shall be on site and observing all secondary compaction efforts, monitoring densily
gauge readings, and approving areas as they reach maximum density.
The Confactor shall protect and maintain the recycled surface from landscape or nuisance water, other deleterious
substances, and/or any other danrage. Any damage to the completed recycled material shall be repaired by the
General Contractor prior to the placement of new asphalt concrete or final surface sealing, Areas damaged shall be
excavated to the depih directed by the Engineer and/or filled and compacted with new asphalt concrete. All loose
particles that rnay develop on the pavement surface shall be removed prior to the final surface course. No direct
payment will be made and costs shall be included elsewhere for protection and rnaintenance of the recycled asphalt
concrete pavement.
Prior to any overlay with asphalt concrete, the recycled pavement should be carefully swept of all loose material to
create a dry clean surface. A tack coat of SS-1h emulsion, emulsified recycling agent or equivalent (0.05 gatlon per
square yard minimum)shall be applied to all surface areas

Plant in transport mode
Basic design
The plant is used for the production of cold mixes. lt oper-
ates independently of external power sources and can sim-
ply be transported to any suitable job location.The plant's
components are permanently mounted on a low-bed trailer.
The plant is set up within an extremely short period of time.
Low-bed semi-trailer
Chassis frame of high-grade sectional steel, in lightweight
design with central pivots to DIN and SAE standards.
Three air suspension axles with raising and lowering
functions, as well as automatic, load-dependent all-wheel
air brakes in accordance with the relevant EU directive.
The plant is mounted by means of container corner
brackets.
Built-on mechanical and hydraulic telescoping supports are
available to suppoft the full load of the low-bed semi-trailer.
They can be operated from one side to ensure simple setup
and adjustment of the mixing plant.
Engine
All pumps and hydraulic motors are driven by a water-
cooled diesel engine.
The engine complies with the stringent requirements
stipulated by the US Environmental Protection Agency
(EPA, Tier lll) and the EU (Stage lll a).
Proportioning hopper
Generously dimensioned, twin-chamber proportioning
hopper with oversize separation by means of vibrating
screens on both hopper feed sections.
The screens can be folded up hydraulically to allow easy
cleaning. A vertical partition enables two different aggre-
gate fractions to be charged.
i ,* \r,
Technical description
The aggregate ratio is controlled via mechanically
adjustable gate valves at the hopper's discharge point.
Lateral flaps at the hopper frame facilitate building of an
approach ramp, while protecting the section of the low-bed
trailer behind them against soling.
Belt conveyor for feeding the compulsory mixer
A generously dimensioned belt conveyor transports the
different aggregate fractions from the hopper to the mixer.
A conveyor cover and covered transfer point ensure low
dust levels during transport.
The belt is kept clean by a scraper bar at the deflection
pulley on the discharge side and an internal scraper in front
of the return pulley.
Belt scales equipped with a maintenance-free load sensor
determine the current conveying rate.
The measured value is used as an input variable for
controlling the addition of binding agents.
Continuous mixer
Twin-shaft continuous mixer with wear-resistant mixing
arms and adjustable mixing blades made from special hard
cast iron. Mixing trough in steel design with an interior
lining of wearing plates.
The easy-to-service trough cover accommodates the
injection bar for foamed bitumen.
The mixer's filling level is set to the optimum quantity by
means of a hydraulically adjustable discharge opening
onto the discharge conveyor.
Belt conveyor for loading the cold mix
The discharge conveyor is folded in hydraulically for
transport. lt can be slewed horizontally when in operating
position.
Plant control and switching system
Control of the plant is effected fully automatically via
mrcroprocessors.
The plant is operated from a clearly structured operator
intedace.
Control functions include: batch production, automatic plant
start-up, monitoring of the individual drive systems, warning
signals in case of material shoftage, monitoring of filling lev-
els, temperatures and pressures, pre-selection of tonnage,
automatic plant shut-down, as well as service mode.
Precise adherence of the mix quality to the specified formu-
la is ensured by continuously matching the target values
with the actual values of the different drive systems. The
plant is operated from a clearly structured main control con-
sole, which permits monitoring of the entire mixing process.

METHOD FOR TESTING OF MATERIAL PRODUCTION PLANTS
CAUTTON:Prior to handling test materials, performing equipment setups, and/or
conducting this test method, testers are required to read Section F, "SAFETY
AND IIEALTII" in Parts 2, 3, 4, 5A, 5E} and Part 6 "Material Plant Safety
Inspectiorr" of this test method and Part t i of California Test L25. It is the
responsibility of the user of this method to consult and use departmental
safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory
limitations before any testing is performed.
A. SCOPE
The procedures used lor testing and
approving rnaterial production plants
and the proportioning devices used in
the plants are described in this method.
This method is divided into the following
parts:
1. General Procedure for Testing and
Approving Weighing and Measuring
Devices
2. Test Procedure for Hopper Scales
3. Test Procedure for Liquid Metering
4. Test Procedure for Conveyor Scales
5. Test Procedure for Volumetric
Proportioning Plants
6. Material Plant Safety Inspection
PART 1 - GENERAL PROCEDURE FOR
TESTING AND APPROVING WEIGHING AND
MEASURING DEVICES
A. GENERAL
The purpose of this test method is the
approval by Caltrans personnel of
material plants supplying construction
materials to Caltrans projects. The
duty of the Caltrans Weights and
Measures Coordinator (WMC), within
the context of this test method, is to
oversee the implementation of the
testing and inspection of material
production plants. It is not the
responsibility of the Caltrans person to
direct the contractor's operation or to
operate any of the controllers or
proportioning devices connected with
raaterial production.
The inspection of the plant lor
conformance with the requirements of
the contract specilications may be
performed concurrently with the
ca.libration of installed proportioning
devices and, ultimately, the approval of
the material plant. This work may
proceed in any order, but it is
envisioned that initial plant inspection
and device calibration will be conducted
on tJ..e hrst plant visit and subsequent
visits may be ueeded to finalize the
approval of those items found delicient
initially.
B. PLANT INSPECTION
Perform a complete inspection of theplant. All devices and procedures
required by Caltrans specifications, for
the production of the material in
question, shall be in place and in full
working condition bcfore the completion
of this California Test (CT) 109.
-1-
Testing for CT 109 shall not be complete
until all material plant equipment and
devices have met the requirements of
the Standard Specifltcations, Contract
Special Provisions, and CT 125.
Attention is also directed to Section 7-
1.06, "safety and Health Provisions" of
the Standard Specifications.
If the dynamic testing of the material
plant is not completed on the initial
plant site visit, the contractor shall
notify the WMC, no less than 10
calendar days in advance of production
startup, for the completion of the
dynamic testing of plant facilities. If the
dynamic testing has not been completed
before the as-notified plant start up
time, the WMC may issue a "Start-uP
Approval" letter to allow the beginning
of material production until such time
as thc dynamic testing can be
completed. The time between actual
production start up and completion of
dynamic plant testing shall not cxceed
14 calendar days. The WMC will extend
the time for dynamic testing when
the delay is due to Caltrans
scheduling. The test acceptance sticker
CP-CtrM-OOL7, or equivalent, shall only
be issued upon the satisfactory
completion of the plant dynamic testing,
proportioning device lesting, and the
plant inspection.
A dynamic test shall be performed
before acceptance of the equipment's
accuracy.
1. Dynamic testing of batch type plant
proportioning devices shall include
the following:
a. Interlocks - Review individual
batch masses to a.scertain the
performance of the batch
controller in regards to interlock
tolerances. The controller must
batch within the tolerances
allowed by the specihcations for
zero tolerances and dralt cutoff
tolerances for the product being
produced. For more information
on the procedure ofchecking the
Galifornia Test 109
May 2004
viability of batch controller
interlock functious, refer to the
Weights and Measures
Handbook.
Material Leakage - No ingredient
leakage shall occur that would
alter the accuracy at the point of
measurement. Material leakage
is determined by visual
inspection by holding a batch
mass for a short time and see if
the indicated mass is changing.
The "weight inspect" feature of
the batch controller will stop the
batch process long enough to
see if material is leaking from
the gates.
Ingredient Ratio - For asphalt
concrete (AC), batch masses are
to produce a mixture where the
binder content is a percent of
the dry aggregate not a percent
of the total mix. The batch
controller shall be programmed
to deliver the correct binder
ratio.
Batch Lockout - During an
extended interval, 45 min or
more, observe and note the
percent of batches in which one
or more drafts are outside of the
specified zero or cutoff
tolerances. Specihcations do not
allow the acceptance of any
batched ingredient draflt that is
out of tolerance unless corrected
by removing or adding material.
A wcll-adjusted batch plant
should have no more than 5 %o
of the drafts irr an out-of-
tolerance condition.
Device Functionality - During
mix production, note the
functionality of thermometers,
silo ctrtoffs, load ticket
generation, surge batchers,
wasted rnix handling, moisture
meters and cold feed control.
b.
c
d

f. Delivery Tickets - Reuiew theprinting of ingredient batch
masses on thc portland cement
concrete (PCC) delivery ticket.
The actual, as batched, PCC
masses are to be printed on the
delivcry ticket as required by
specification. Where AC delivery
tickets are generated from batch
masses, refer to Section 39-8.0 1,
"Measurement,' of the Standard
Specifications flor a list of
requirements for this type of
operation. Refer to the Weights
and Measures Handbook for
more data on delivery tickets.
2. Dynamic testing of continuous
mixing type plant proportioning
devices shall include the following:
a. Ingredient Ratio - While the
plant is operating at the planned
production rates, see that the
plant controller is maintaining
the correct ingredient ratios.
Observe the rate and total for
the aggregate being used and
cornpare it with the rate and
total for the binder (asphalt,
lime, cement, etc), The length oftime used to check the
functionality of plant controller
will differ depending on the
production rate of the plant in
question, but a timed test of at
least 10 min will be needed. A
significant differeuce here would
indicate a need for recalibration
of individual proportioning
devices or a problem with thc
blending capabilities of the plant
controller. Resettable totalizers
for individual ingredients are
required by the specifications for
the material being produced.
b. Specific Gravity - Where
applicable, ensure that the
correct specific gravity for the
binder bcing uscd has been
input into the plant controller.
The specific gravity reported by
the refinery will have to be
California Test 109
May 2004
verified by the Transportation
Laboratory (Transl-ab) testing.
Moisture Correction - Ascertain
whether the aggregate moisture
system is functioning properly.
Where there is a separatc
indication of wet aggregate
delivery, compare this to the dry
aggregate delivery as displayed
on the plant controller. Where
there is no separate display of
wet aggregate usage during an
aggregate only check-run,
changc the input aggregate
moisture by a nominal amount(say 3 %) and note the
appropriate change to the
indicated aggregate delivery rate.
Moisture is computed as a
percent of the dry aggregate,
refer to CT 226 or CT 37O, and
Standard Specihcations Section
39-3.02, "Drying."
Multiple Indication - Where
there are multiple indicators forlike ingredients see that the
multiple indications are within
specifications. Refer to specifica-
tions for continuous mixing
materia-l production for the
maximum allowable difference
lor Iike indicators. Errors
displayed on like indicators,
multiple indication for the same
material delivery, is an
indication of mismanagement of
the proportioning process.
Material leakage - No ingredient
leakage shall occur after the
point of measurement. Material
leakage is determined by visual
inspection. Material leakage and,
conversely, material storage after
the point of measurement are
detrimental to continuous
proportioning accuracy.
Device Functionality - During
mix production note the
functionality of all required
devices and procedures. These
d.
e.
i.
aJ
items include, but are not
limited to, the following:
thermometers, silo cutoffs, load
ticket generation, surge
batchers, wasted mix handling,
low-flow and no-flow interlocks,
material mixing, mix handling,
moisture control and cold feed
control.
3. Dynamic Testing of Volumetric
Proportioning Systems
a. Observe the production process
while using the as calibrated
ingredient delivery rates.
b. Thc required follow-up and spot
testing is adequate for the
dynamic testing of the rapid
strength concrete. (See Part 5A,
Section C2 of this test method.)
4. Review all items used for material
production, as identihed in the
specifications that may affect mix
quality. This will include a-11 areas
rvhere Caltrans specifications
require a device or procedure. Areas
of the plant site where Caltrans
personnel frequent shall be
inspected for adherence to CAL-
OSHA requirements. Use a plant
checklist for the specific plant type
in question. Check with the WMC at
the Caltrans Headquarter Division
of Construction (HQ Construction)
for checklist availability.
PROPORTIONING SYSTEMS CALIBRA.
TION AND APPROVAL
Perform a pre-test inspection of thc
weighing and measuring system and
controls.
1. Identification: Note and record
manufacturer's name, model
number and serial number.
2. Approval: Determine whether the
device, system or control has been

Galifornia Test 109
May 2004
accordance with the requirements of
the California Department of
Agriculture, Division of Measure-
ment Standards (DMS), or has been
tested and approved previously by
Caltrans HQ Construction. An
approved tist of weighing and
measuring devices, system and
controls, including AC continuous
midng plants, will be maintained by
HQ Construction.
If the device, system or control is
not included in the current list, CT
109 should not be performed. The
manufacturer of the device must
request cither type-approval by the
DMS if a commercial use is
intended, or set a date for a
Caltrans inspection for approval
through HQ Construction if the
device, system, or control is to be
used non-commercially.
NOTE 1: Refer to the Weights and
Measures Handbook for a
discussion of commercial/non-
commercial devices and the role of
the DMS.
Ascertain whether the indicating
and recording elements are
compatible with l-heir intended use
and are located properly.

plants shall be tested at an interval as
required by the appropriate project
special provision. In any case, any
device shall be tested as often as
deemed necessary by the Engineer.
The test is completed by checking otherhxed points, such as intermediate
points during a build-up test or corner
loading on a batch weigh hopper. At the
option of the Engineer, certain of the
above steps may be eliminated. The
total test load shall be at least equal to
the intended operating capacity.
If an automatic batching system with
remote indicators is used, these remotcindicators become the primary
indicators.
Cornmercial class test masses shall be
compared to California State Standardsand certified by an authorized
representative of the DMS. These
standards shall conform to the
specifications and tolerances for
commercial standards as established by
National Institute of Standards and
Technolory (NIST). The frequency of

testing and plant inspections. The
CEM-00 14, or equivalent, record sheet
should contain the time required to
perform the testing.
The Engineer will seal all adjusting
elements that change the measuring
device's accuracy upon witnessing
acceptable accuracy of the device. Any
time these seals are broken, without the
Engineer's witnessing that there has
been no change in the adjusting
elements, the measuring device shall
be retested for accuracy and resealedafter being found accurate. Referto Staldard Speci[ications Section
9-1.01, paragraph 4, ''Meastrrement of
Quantities.'' The owner of the device is
responsible for providing the means to
seal the device.
All interlock settings shall be tested for
accuracy. Refer to the Weights and
Measures Handbook for more
information on the testing of interlock
tolerances. There shall be a
manufacturer's rnanual of operating
instructions available at the control
panel of each automatic batching or
continuous midng control system. This
rnanual shall contain the procedure for
checking interlock-tolerance settingsand means of determining span-
adjustment settings for computerized
controls. Where automatic controllers
are used, the manual shall contain a
detailed procedure of how to set

calibrated as required for scale mounted
hoppers in this CT lO9.
B. INSPECTION
1. Inspect the scale in accordance with
the requirements of Part 1. Beam
scales shall not be used for batch
operations.
2. Inspect the load cells installcd in the
weigh system. In multiple load cell
applications, the load cells shall beof the same value on the same
device. Load cell values shall be of
appropriate value for the intended
use,
C. TESTING EQUIPMENT AND PROVISIONS
1. Test masses, certified as per this
CT 109, in an amount needed to
satisfy the scalc capacity shall be
available.

sirnulator shall have the range and
sensitivity to suit the parameters of
the device being tested.
DEVICE TESTING AND CALIBRATION
1. Check oscillations of indicator
(where applicable). Oscillations in
the indication shall not exceed two
scale graduations.
2. Set the zero-load balance after all
equipment needed for the scale
testing has been installed on the
scale.
3. At dial type mechanical indicators:
a. Lock the dial. Release locking
mechanism; indicator should
return to zero. Repeat procedure
several times.
b. Lock the dial and shal<e the
hopper or tank.
c. Release locking mechanism;
indicator should return to the
starting point.
4. Corner and section test. Inspect the
scale system, including levers, load
cells, bearing points and hoppers,
Correct any ad.verse condition that
could affect the device's accuracy
(such as damaged or altered parts or
altercd factory adjusted settings).
Where the hopper or tank can be
loaded off center a corner and
section test shall be made.
To accomplish a corner or section
test, a test load equal to 25 %o ol tlrescale's capacity shall be
concentrated at each of the main
bearing points and S0 % of the
scale's capacity on a main section.
5. Apply test loads at 25 %o, SO o/o,
75 o/o and full capacity.
a. Record the mass indicated at
each loading and note the
amount of error in mass and
D.
graduations. The maximum
allowable error shall be two scale
graduations.
b. When applicable, lock the dial
and release locking mechanism.
The scale shall repeat indicated
mass within one minimrrm
graduation.
c. Remove load and indicator
should return to zero, If the
scale does not return to zeroIook to problems such as
sluggish bearing points, dead
loadcells, or leaking material
gates. In dealing with the errorin returning to zeto, keep in
mind the maximum allowable
error in this scale test is two
graduations.
NOTE 3: The Engineer may require
other intcrmediate loads.
NOTE 4: The Build-Up Test - When
there are not suflicient known
masses available to test the
weighing system to full capacity or
means to hang all such rnasses, the
Contractor must provide an
acceptable means of building up or
substituting other mass in place of
the known masses. The build-up
method is as stated below.
The build-up method for hopper scales
is to replace a portion of the known
mass with material (aggregate or other
prod.uct used during production). 'l'his
is done by first hanging available known
masses (test rnasses) to at least 1/4 of
scale's capacity and calibrate the scale
system to this known mass. Remove the
known mass and replace it by placing
an equal mass of material in the hopper
(equal to but not in excess of test load of
known mass applied above), then add
the known mass aqain to the built-up
mass. This procedure is rcpcated as
necessary to attain capacity, but the
total build-up mass may not exceed
three times the known mass.
California Test 109
May 2004
An example of an acceptable build-up
test follows:
Condition: 10,000 kg aggregate weigh
hopper - scale agency has only 2500 kg
of certihed test masses. All recording isto be done on Form CEM-0014, or
equivalent.
1. Apply the 2500 kg of certihed test
masses. Record indicated mass.
Record plus or minus error
(indicated mass relative to known
mass applied, 2490 kg indicated :
- 10 kg error; 2510 kg indicated =
+ t0 kB error); and rernove known
masses.
2. Place 2500 kg of substituted mass
(aggregate) into the weigh hopper
being careful that it is applied
evenly to all corners of scale. Do not
exceed the mass indicated in step 1.
Record the true mass. Indicated
mass minus error recorded in step
1- (A minus error in step 1 is added
to indicated mass for true built-up
mass and a plus error in step I is
subtracted from indicated mass for
true built-up mass.) In other words,
2a9O kg indicated is equal to
2500 t(g actual mass in the first
instance and 2510 kg indicated is
equal to 2500 kg actual mass in the
second instance.
3. Reapply the 2500 kg of test masses
to the partially loaded hopper.
Record applied known mass equal to
2500 kg plus recorded true built-up
mass of 250O kg : 5000 kg. Record
mass indicated and plus or minus
error, as in step t, and remove test
rrlAsSCS.
4. Add more material in weigh hopper
equal to the test masses removed.
Do not exceed previous indicated
mass. Record the tnre built-up mass
using same procedure as given in
step 2.
5, Reapply the 2500 kg of test masses
and add the true built-up mass from
7
E.
step 4; record the newly applied test
load, 7500 kg. Record the indicated
mass and the algebraic difference
from the applied test loads, as in
step 1, and remove the known tcst
masses.
6. Add more material in weigh hopper
equal to the test masses removed.Do not exceed the previously
indicated mass in step 5. Record the
true built-up mass using the same
procedure given in step 2.
7. Reapply the 2500 kg of certified test
masses and add the trre built-up
mass from step 6; record the newly
applied test load, 10,000 kg. This
completes the application of test
load to full capacity of scale. Recordthe mass indicated and the
algcbraic difference on Form CEM-
0O14, or equivalent. Any procedurcof building-up mass that doesn't
follow the aforementioned methods
is not acceptable.
REPORT AND SECURITY SEAL
At the conclusion of a successful test of
proportioning devices, record the span-
adjustment settings and. make them
available to the plant inspector. Where
the device does not produce a record of
adjustment, span number or other
indication of adjustment, the device
shall be left in a secure condition by the
placing of a physical security seal. Referto Section 9- 1.O 1, paragraph 4,
"Measurernent of Quantities," of the
current Standard Specifications. (See
Note lO.)
SAFETY
Test masses are heavy and unforgiving.
Do not place yourself in danger by being
too close to the activities during the act
of lifting and lowering of test masses.
Lifting chains and come-alongs can anddo break under the load of the test
masses.

May 2004
PART 3 . TEST PROCEDURE FOR LIQUID
METERING
A. GENERAL
When the liquid meter system includes
a separate stand-alone controller, this
independent controller shalt be the only
controller used tbr the testing and
calibration of the liquid meter. The
calibration procedure shall be separate
from and not used with the main plant
controller. After the successful testing ofthe separate, stand-alone device, the
main plant controller shall be adjustedto track the calibrated proportioning
device, exactly.
NOTE 5: An example of this would be
the Micro Motion mass-flow meter. Themeter is supplied with its own
transmitter. This separate, stand-alone
metering device is calibrated and thenthe controller that handles the
cornbined plant function is adjusted to
track the meter transmitter. The same
could be true of a Ramsey weighbelt
controller.
Where the meter is not supplied with
the means of self-calibration, the main
plant controller will have to be used for
the liquid mcter testing and calibration.
The meter manufacturer,s name and
model number shall be identified on thedevice identification plates. This
identihcation shall be ou the meter
proper and the meter transmitter on
multiple part meters. A copy of the DMSapproved type-approval shall be
supplied with the meter.
The liquid meter shall meet the
requirements of Part 1 of this CT lO9.
Meter by Mass - The device that allows
the measurement of the flow of liquids
by mass (weight) is called a mass-flowor coriolis effect meter. This device
records and indicates the measured
amount of liquid passing through it in
mass units ruithout the need for input of
temperature or specific gravity of the
F.
B
measured product. Refer to the Weightsand Measures Handbook for more
information on mass flow meters.
Meter bg Volume - This typc of dcvicc
measures the liquid product volumetri-
cally. The device records and indicates
the measured amount of liquid passing
through it in volume (gallons or liters).
In some applications this measurcment
will have to be manually converted to
mass and may require the input of
temperature and unit mass (spccific
gravity) of the liquid. Volumetric meters
installed at continuous mixing AC
plants are required to have automatic
temperature compensation (ATC).
INSPECTION
1. All meter installations shall be
inspected visually for proper
connections and conditions before
tests for accuracy are performed.
The meter installation shall be in
accordance with the meter
manufacturer's instructions, a copy
of which shall be furnished to the
Engineer. AII meters shall have been
type-approved by the DMS prior to
use. Inspect for leakage.
2- Indicators for all proportioning
devices shall be in the plant control
room. Indications shall be clear,
definite, accurate and legible under
normal conditions of operation of
the system. Where there is no
control room associated with the
material plant, the proportioning
dcvice displays shall be grouped to
facilitate their reading from onelocation. Deliveries shall be
indicated and recorded in kilograms,
tonnes, pounds, tons, liters, ga-llons
and decimal subdivisions thereof.
The indication shall display a rate
meter and a resettable totalizer. The
indication for the mass-flow meter
shall be in rnass, volume shall not
be acceptable as

California Test 109
May 2004
3. Mass-flow type meters are required
by Caltrans specifi.cations for the
measurement of lime slurry and
rubber-modified asphalt binder and
are acceptable for all other liquid
measurements.
TESTING EQUIPMENT AND PROVISTONS
1. The liquid meter shall be tested in
the operating location in which it isto be used with all operating
conditions prevailing. The meter
system shall be tested under
normally expected environmental
conditions. The testing shall berescheduled when weather
conditions are strch that the witness
scale indicator fluctuates by more
than two graduations.
The metering at AC plants system
shall be operated in the circulate
mode for at least 15 min just prior
to testing to heat and thoroughly fillthe system before the start of
caiibration.
2. Test drafts shall be weighed on a
platform scale locatcd at the
proportioning plant. The under
support for the platform scale used
for the test standard shall contbrm
to the requirements of the Standard
Specifications, Section 9-1.01,
"Measurement and Payment."
Witness scales shall have been type
approved by the DMS prior to use
for device calibration. The platform
scale shall be error tested within
8 hrs of the calibration. Er-ror
testing shall be performed with test
masses conforming to this CT 109
and shall produce a witness scale
that is within two graduations of the
test mass load. Refer to the Weightsand Measures Handbook for a
description of platform scale error
testing.
3. The contractor shall provide a
suitable container capable of
receiving the full flow of material
being delivered from the meter for
c
B.
a unit of
I
the calibration procedure. The meter
installation shall be plumbed to
facilitate the diversion of the test
draft to a container suitable for the
size of the required test draft. All
parts of the meter system shall be
free of leaks of calibration liquid or
air. Leaking or loss of testing
material during the calibration run
at any place between the liquid
storage and test mass determination
on the witness scale shall cancel the
testing until the malfunction can be
corrected. Any physical change of
the meter system shall require a
restart of the calibration procedurcs.
4. Product flow rates used during
device testing shall be
commensurate with anticipated
production flow rates. Requirements
for minimum test draft size, witness
scale capacity and witness scale
graduations shall comply with Table
A, "Meter Testing Extremes." (Table
A attached.) (See Note 6.)
Device plumbing shall be such that
the Engineer can clearly ascertain
that none of the liquid passing
through the meter during
calibration is being diverted before
entering the test dralt container.
Tank Scales - Some plant configura-
tions may include a scale-mounted
tank for calibration use. This
tank may be used as the witness
scalc provided it meets the
requirements of Table A, "Meter
Testing Extremes," and all other
requirements for witness scales and
calibration containers in this CT
1 09.
Provers - A prover is a calibrated
vessel with a capacity suitable to the
test draft as per Table A.
a. A prover may be used to
calibrate water meters provided
the calibration draft sizc adheres
to the requirements of Table A,
"Meter Testing Extrernes."
California Test 109
May 2004
b. Provers shall meet the require-
ments of the DMS.
c. The prover shall be maintained
in a level position throughout
the test run.
8. A standardized thermometer must
be available to check the
temperature of the liquid at the time
of testing where volumetric metering
is being utilized without automatic
temperature compensation. A
stopwatch will also bc needed.
DEVICE TESTING AND CALIBRATION
1. Where the test draft used for
calibration is 1l5O litcrs or less, the
testing parameters sha-ll conform
the requirements of Table A, nMeter
Testing Extremes," for limitations to
test drafts and witness scales.
Large Draft Option - At the option of
the contractor, a large-draft
calibration test may be used. When
the Contractor chooses to use a test
draft that does not comply with
Table A, "Meter Testing Extremes,"
the minimum test draft shall be
4 tonnes. This large draft option
shall require a vehicle scale, located
at the proportioning plant, as the
calibration witness scale, Error-test
the required vehicle scale with test
loads of known mass. Error testing
must be completed no more than
8 hrs prior to testing thc accuracy of
the proportioning devices. A build-
up method may be used to error-test
that portion of the scale capacity in
excess of 25 % of its operational
limit. The minimum graduation of
the vehicle scale's indicator shall not
be greater than 0.O1 tonne. Error
testing shall produce a witness
scale that is accurate to within
trvo graduations of the test mass
load. When the newly error-tested
witness scale is isolated from uses
outside of the device calibration, it
will not have to be retested for a
period of 7 days provided it remains
D.

undisturbed and free of errors. Referto the Weights and. Measure s
Hanctbook for ctetails on error
testing scales.
2. Immediately before starting the
series of test runs for the meter
calibration, it will be necessary to
send calibration liquid through the
system to "dirty the system," or
bring the calibration path to an as-
used condition, being carelul to
leave the system at the same degree
of "empty' for all test runs. This
exercise is to have the meter system
in thc samc condition for all of the
test runs, including the first one of
the series. Always reset the totalizer
to zero and re-tare the calibration
container before starting the
calibration procedure before each
test run.
When weighing the test draft on the
witness scale, be aware that hoses,
ropes and other paraphernalia
hanging from or on the calibration
container may have an effect on the
accurate weighing of the test draft. Iffill hoses are left attached to the
calibration container during the
weighing process, the witness scale
may have to be error tested again
after the hoses have been softened
by the hot asphalt.
3. Record the position of the meter's
span number (calibration constant)
for each test in the series. Each
series of tests shall consist of at
least three runs of a minimum
quantiLy, as required by Table A,
"Meter Testing Extremes" or the
Large Draft Option, each at rates of
flow commensurate with rates of
flow anticipated during production.
NOTE 6: Commensurate Rate
Example - Where ihe liquid is to be
used in a asphalt concrete mixture,
apply the bitumen ratio lrom the
proposed job-mix formula to the
aggregates flow ratc to determine 6.
asphalt binder flow rate, or in the
California Test 109
May 2004
case of lime slurry treatment of AC
aggregates, the ratio of lime slurryto aggregate. Thc three calibration
rates should be at 100 o/o, 65 Yo and
30 Yo of the maximum flow
anticipated during production.
The meter totalizer must be read
with the indicator at rest. Totalizer
readings shall not be made on the
fly. The meter totalizer indicator
shall start from, or return to, zero
and shall not advance its
indications belore delivery of
material. No zero creep shall be
allowed.
At the end of the individual test run,
log the amount measured by the
liquid meter, the value from themeter totalizer, or the mass
delivered as indicated by the process
controller. The meter indication forthe measured liquid for any
individual test run shall be
compared with the mass determined
by weighing the measured Iiquid on
the previously error tested witness
sca-le. AII determinations of accuracy
shall be made by comparing
metered rcsults with actual results
from the witness scale.
Error calculation is E = A - M, where
D is error for the run, A is the actual
mass of the liquid as determined on
the witness scale, and M is the mass
of the liquid as determined by the
proportioning device, the meter.
Percent error calculation is: yo9 =
(E/A)x100. Average error for the
device is the combined percent error
for runs a, b and c divided by 3. Ifthe metering device is adjusted
before completion of the three
calibration runs, the test is aborted
and a new series must be initiated.
Error limits shall be as per the
requirements of Table A, "Meter
Testing Extremes."
Always check the rate indicator
against the totalizer's indicator lor

7.
at least a l-min interval. Time the
interval with a stopwatch. The
indicated rate shor.rld track the rate
determined from the totalizer. A rate
meter is a digital disPlaY of the
speed of the operation - tonnes Per
hour, liters per minute, etc. A
totalizer is a digital display of the
mass delivered in tonnes, liters, etc.
Volumetric Conversions - Where the
meter is of the volumetric tYPe, a
conversion for temperature and/or
unit mass may have to be made.
a. Unit Mass - The initial sPeciltc
gravity for product to be metered
must be obtained from the
material source (the refinery in
the case of asphalts) and
verihed. The specific gravitY
shall be determined for the
specific lot of asphalt to be used
in the calibration process. If at
the initial determination of
specific gravity there is some
doubt as to the specific gravitY
value, the contractor will have to
decide whether to use the
available number or wait until a
value can be produced by the
TransLab before calibrating the
device. lf the contractor chooses
to wait, the sampled product will
have to be kept in storage until
the catibration is comPleted. At
the time of testing the meter,
take a sample of the asPhalt and
immediately send it to the
Translab for determination of its
actual specif,tc gravity. Request
results for specilic gravity onlY
with an e-mailed answer.
NOTE 7: If the confirmed specific
gravity is such that the previously
tested meter's accuracy is within
O.5 o/o, the meter may be adjusted
without running subsequent
accuracy tests. If the adjtlstment
requires more than aO.5o/o change,
a new series of tests of the asphalt
meter shall be nrn.
California Test 109
May 2004
b. Temperature Correction - Hot
ingredients must be reduced to a
baseline temperature of 1SoC
(6O'F) for the purpose of
convcrting to mass. The
conversion lactors for asPhalts
can be found in Section 93,
"Liquid Asphalts" of the
Standard Specifications' The
temperature of the liquid shall
be constant during individual
test runs in order to Permitconverting the base line
temperature. When a mass-flow
coriolis effect meter is used, no
specihc gravity will be needed as
no conversion will have to be
done.
Method used to calculate thc
percent of error for the test run
where no automatic temPerature
compensation is Present:
a. Reduce the metered hot volume
to baseline (15"C or 6O"F)
metered volume by multiPlYing
the indicated volume from the
meter totalizer by the multiPlier
shown in Conversion Table 1 of
Section 93 of the Standard
Specifications.
b- Convert the baseline
temperature metered volume to
metered mass by ustrg the
specific gravity of the calibration
liquid.
c. The differential between the
metered mass and the actual
mass equals the test run error.
NOTE 8: When meter indication has
been compensatcd for thermal
change by an automatic tempera-
ture compensator (to 15"C or 6O"!-
baseline) or when a mass-flow meter
is used, it is not necessary to make
a hot-liters calculation.
cl. Determine the perccnt of meter
error thus: The test run error
divided by the actual mass
B.
-12-
E.
equals the test run percent
error times 10O. [100 times
(calculated metered mass minus
actual mass) divided by the
actual mass.l
EXAMPLE: 2L76.6 L of asphalt metered
at 135"C weighs 2O4L kg. The specific
gravity of the asphalt at l5"C is 1.02O.
Determine the percent of meter error
using the mass of asphalt as the
measuring standard.
Step a. 2176.6 x O.9266 = 20L6.84
Step b. 1.00 x l.O2O: 1.020 kg per L
@ 15'C x2Or6.84 = 2057.17
Step c. 2057.17 - 2041 = L6.LT
Step d. L6.17 I 2O4L = 0.8 o/o
NOTE 9: The specific gravity at varying
temperatures may have to be furnished
by the manufacturer of the product in
conjunction with Translab.

indicated and recorded in kilograms,
tonnes, pounds, tons, liters, gallons
and decima,l subdivisions.
TEST EQUIPMENT AND PROVISIONS
1. The weighbelt shall be tested in its
operating location with all operating
conditions prevailing. The sca-le
shall be tested after it is installed on
the conveyor with which it is to be
used. The conveyor shall be tested
under normally expected environ-
mental conditions. The testing shall
be rescheduled when weather
conditions are such that the witness
scale indicator fluctuates by more
than three graduations.
2. Any physical change of the belt
scale shall require a restart of the
calibration procedures. Changes
that rnay trigger retesting the device
include, but are not limited to: a
component of the conveyor or belt
scale is changed, adjusted, or
altered; the conveyor incline angle is

to the maximum production speed.
(Table B attached.)
DEVICE TESTING AND CALIBRAT]ON
l. The calibration procedure may be by
pre-weighing or post-weighing the
testing material on the witness
scale. When a preweighed test load
is passed over the weighbelt, the
conveyor-loading hopper must be
examined before and aflter the test to
assure that all the material used for
the calibration check actually
passed over the weighbelt. In either
type of operation, it may be
necessary to run calibration
material through the system to
"dirty the system," or bring the
calibration path to an as-uscd
condition, being careful to run the
system to the same degree of
"empty" for each test r-un.
D.

2. Before the start of the calibration
procedure, a zero-load test shall be
conclucted and the device shall becalibrated to manufacturer's
recommendations. Set the zero-load
condition with the conveyor in
motion and with alL necessary
attachments for normal operation in
place. If zero creep is present, it
must be self-compensating positive
readings compensating for negative
readings.
3. The calibration medium shall be the
same type of material that will bc
used in production.
4. Witness Scale - The witness scale
shall meet the requirements in TableB, "Conveyor Scale Testing
Extremes." Error-test the required
scale to be used as the test standardwith test loads of known mass.
(Refer to Part 1, Section D.) This
must be done within 8 hrs prior tothe beginning of testing the
accuracy of tJle proportioning
devices. A build-up method may be
used to check that portion of the
scale capacity in excess of.25o/o of.its operational limit. Error testing
shall produce a witness scale that is
accurate to within two grad.uati.ons
of its calibration test mass (known
test mass and build-up mass if
used). When the newly error-tested
witness scale is isolated from uses
outside of the device calibration, it
will not have to be retested. for a
period of 7 days provided it remains
undisturbed and free oferrors. Referto the Weights and Measures
Handbook for details on error
testing of witness scales.
NOTE 1 1: When testing production
plants with computer-control systems,thc means of observing the input
settings for the numerical security seal
(span number) is normally a digital
display. The manufacturer must supplythe instructions on how the span
nurnbers for the adjrrsting elentents are
displayed and calibrated. The HQ
Construction will be responsible for
California Test 109
May 2004
rcviewing all new proportioning systemsfor acceptability and supplying the
instructions for inspection of each
system accepted for use in producing
material for Caltrans projects. Where
thc adjusting elements do not produce a
numerical security seal, the device
shall be left in a secure condition by
the placing ofa physical security seal bythe District WMC. Refer to Section
9-1-0 1, paragraph 4, "Measurement
of Quantities," of the Standard
Specifications.
5. Always check the rate indicator
against the totalizer indicator for
several intervals of l-min or more.
Time the interval with a stopwatch.
The indicated rate should be within
L o/o of the rate determined by thetotalizer. Check the current
specifications for the product beingproduced to determine the
maximum allowable error lor like
indicators.
6. When the weighbelt system includes
a separate stand-alone controller,
this independent controller shall be
the only controller used for the
testing and calibration of the
weighbelt. The calibration procedure
shall be separate from and not used
with the main plant controller, Afterthe successful testing of the
separate, stand-alone device, the
main plant controller shall be
adjusted to track the calibrated
proportioning device, exactly. (See
Note 5.)
Where the weighbelt is not supplied
with the means of self-calibration,
the main plant controller will have
to be used for the weighbelt testing
and calibration. Refer to the Weights
and Measures Handbook for more
inforrnation about plant controller
interface with individual proportion-
ing controllers.
7. In the event the material production
rate is to excced 365 metric tonnes
per hour (MTH) (402 tonnes per
-15-
E.
hour), the high speed calibration
attempt may be a set of two trrns of
2 min each for each calibration rate
greatcr than 365 MTH. The average
error for each pair o[ runs shall not
exceed L.O o/o. This average high-
speed error shall be used as the
high-speed result.
8. Record span-adjustment setting and
reading of the weighbelt's totalizer
before each test run. Divert the test
flow of calibration material into the
calibration container directly from
the feeder belt at each of the
designated rates. Each series of
tests shall consist of at least three
runs of at least thc minimum
quantity stated in Table B,
"Conveyor Scale Testing Extremes."
The empty mass (tare) of the
calibration container shall be
determined at the beginning of each
test rrrn. Any loss of rnaterial during
the test run shall be cause for
starting the test run over.
9. The difference between the mass
accumulated on the weighbelt
totalizer (metered) and the mass
indicated on the witness scale rvheu
the calibration container is weighed
(actual) is divided by thc aotual
mass to determine the percent error
for the calibration run. The average
percent error for the threc test runs
is the sum of the deviations of the
three individual test runs divided
by 3. If the device is adjusted before
completion of the three calibration
runs, thc test is aborted and a new
series must be initiated. Device
error shall be within the limits
expressed in Table B, "Conveyor
Scale Testing Extremes."

l. For the test standard, error-test a
section of a vehicle scale located
within 3 miles of the aggregate
stockpile.(Refel to ParL 4, Section
D-4.)
2. The mixer-spreader truclc shall be
equipped so that an accuracy check
can be made prior to the first
opcration for the project and at any
other time as directed bv the
Engineer.
3. Ingredient indicators shall be in
working order prior to commencing
proportioning and mixing operations
and shall be visible when standing
near the batch-mixer truck.
DEVICE TESTING AND CALIBRATION
1. Aggregate Belt Rate Detcrminations
a. Preweigh a loaded truck and run
at least 3 tonnes of aggregate
from the truck mounted hopper,
over the belt, and through the
pugmill. Register the number of
counts on the aggregate belt-
feeder revolution counter.
Reweigh the truck after the test
run, divide the net mass change
by the revoltrtions counted and
reduce the results by the
moisture content of the
aggregate being used for the
calibration to obtain a dry
kilogram of aggregate per
revolution.
Note 12: What you have after here is

per unit ol the aggregate belt-feeder
revolution counter. The type of
count does not nratter as iong as it
relates to aggregate belt-feeder
movement - it may be different for
each truck. The important final
product of this calibration is the
ability to determine the ratio of
kilograms of dry aggregate to the
kilograms of cmulsion, corrected for
temperature, while operational.
b. Continue this operation for a
total of three runs at the
approximate gate setting to be
used during the production of
slurry seal. None of these
three runs should deviate from
their combined mathematical
average by rnore than L,O Yo.
After using the above procedure
to establish belt-feeder delivery
consistency, do two more runs
that bracket the initial delivery
rate. These two runs and the
average of the first three runs
should produce a straightline
plot.
NOTE 13: An a-lternate aggregate
calibration option is to capture the
material leaving the mixer-spreader
truck, without loss, and deposit it
into a container. The procedure then
shall be as for volumetric PCC
equipment as in Part 5A, Volumetric
RSC Proportioning.
Emulsion Pump Rate
Determination. Use the te st
standard, vehicle scale, as set up for
the aggregate test.
a. Preweigh a mlYer-spreader
truck, empty of aggregate,
Ioaded rvith cmulsion to be used
for the contract. Run at least
l2OO L from the truck mounted
emulsion storage through the
emulsion pump and into a
separate tank. The aggregate
belt-feeder must rt-rn in an
empty mode in order to make
California Test 109
May 2004
the aggregate belt-feeder
revolution counter functional.
Register the number of counts
on the counter.
Reweigh the mixer-spreader
truck after the test run, divide
the net mass change by the
revolutions counted., and reduce
tl-re results for any major
temperature correction to obtain
a corrected kilograms of
emulsion per unit of the
aggregate belt-feeder revolution
counter.
b. Continuc this operation for a
total of three runs at the
approximate emulsion rate to be
used during the production of
slurry seal. None of these three
runs should deviate from their
combined mathematical average
by more than 2.0 o/o.Til,:e average
of the results produced by these
three test mns shall be used for
the emulsion pump rate
d.etermination for use in
operational calculations.
If the contractor elects to use a
variable rate emulsion pump,
continue the test with the
following procedure. After using
the initial three test runs to
establish the emulsion pump
delivery consistency, do two
more rLlns that bracket the
initial delivery rate. The results
of these two rLrns and the
average of the first three runs
should produce a straightline
plot.
c. Check that the emulsion pump
and all plurnbing are free of
leaks. Check the thermorneter in
the emulsion storage tank with a
standardized thermometer.
Water Meter - Refer to Part 3, Test
Procedure for Liquid Metering.

proportioning devices, record the span-
adjustment settings ancl make them
available to the plant inspcctor. Where
the device does not produce a record of
adjustment, span number or other
indication of adjustment, the device
shall be left in a secure condition by the
placing of a physical security seal. Referto Section 9-1.O1, paragraph 4,
"Measurement of Quantities," of the

Quality Control procedur.es will include sampling and testing to be performcd at a ratc sufficiertt to etlsurc
that cold recycling, placement, cornpaction, and finishing couforms to the project specifications. Quality
Control Laboratory will be onsite as the Quatified Technician iu accordatrce with the projeot specificati<lns.
Other.separation of QC responsibilities as well as frequency of testing is outlined below and included in
'table 1. The Engineer will have unrestricted access to the laboratory, salnpling, testittg sites, and all
infounation ,"rriiirg fiom mix design and qriality control activities. All QC testing resttlts will be subrnitted
to the Engineet on a daily basis. Copies of the testing forms to be used for the project are attached.
Coll CentraI Plaut Recycling (CCPR) wilt irritiate with Reclaimed Asphalt Pavetneut (RAP) fi'orn the
existing pavements and stockpiled in the dcsignated arca showu on the Plans. PRSI will erlsure that the RAP
is cleari and free of contamination of diLt, base, coucrete and other deletelious matelials. Unsuitable or
coltamipated rlaterials will be removed from the stockpile area and utilized itl other applications of the
pr.oject. Shortly before, ot at the time of rccycling, PRSI will crtrsh and sct'eeu the stockpiled RAP to a
gr.aied aggregate blencl rvith 100% of the crushed RAP passing a 1-inch sievc and less than 5% passing the
No. 200 sieve.
Meters apd belt scales on the recycling mixing unit will calibrated by PRSI within 5-days of beginning the
recycling operation. During the CCPR operatiotrs PRSI's recycling opetator will rnonitor and record the
amlgnt i1d percent of water added and the atnount and pet'cent of emulsion added for every 500 tons of
recyclecl material produced. These quantities will be crossed check by PRSI agaiust celtified weight tickets
of emulsion delivered to the project. PRSI will obtain two-qualt sarnples of eurulsified lecycling agent ft'om
each load deliverect to the project. One satnple will be used for PRSI's quatity corrtrol testing. PRSI will
perforrn a sieve test i1 genLral accordance witlr ASTM D 2444 to verify the emulsiorr is stable prior to ttsing
each load. The remaining sample will be delivered to the Ettgineer at the end of each working day. A
Certificate of Compliance fi'om the emulsion supplier shall accotnpany eaclt shiprnent to the Project.
During cold recycling operations the Quality Conhol Labolatory rvill monitor atrd recot'd arnbient
ternpJratur.e ,"qri,=',i"r1ir and obselve the recycled mix for unifolmity of coating. Cold rrccycling operatiotls
shail not be per.'forrned duling wet conditions or if rain is itnmirrent ol predicted to exist. "[tnmineut ot
predicted" is dcfined as beiug forccasted (showing) withiu a 48-hour period on the National Weather Service
Web Site http://www.lvrh.noaa.gov for the most representative aud nearest location listed to the project.
Recycling and placement operations shall not be perFolrned unless the ambient temperature is a mittimum of
50'F ald unless thc National Weather Sewice Web Site forecasts that the ambient tetnperature will bc
remain a rninimum of 50oF until all recycling constructiou operations at'e completed for tlrat day. In
addition, recycling will not begin if the National Weather Setvice Web Site lorecasts that the arnbient
temperatul'e willdrop below 35oF withiu a 48Jrour period of completing the lecycling operations.
Iu the event recycling and placement operations are initiated and weather conditions deteriorate soon after,
thel all traffic will be kept off the recycled nrat until weather conditions improve (temperature rises and
hunridity drops) and the recycled section has "cur'ed" sufficiently for secorrdaty cornpactiou to take place in
accordance with the Culc and Maintenance rcquirements of the specification.
Quality Control Laboratory will sample each 500 tons of graded RAP and leturned the samples to tlre
laboratory each day to conduct full sieve analyses. On the lirst sarnple and every third sanrple thereafter
Quality Control Laboratory will perform a wet field gradation for material passirtg the l-inch through No. 4
sieves. The sieved sarnple will be compared to the gradation band detet'mined from the mix designs
referenced in the specificatiotrs fol the specified emulsiort.
Adjustments in the rate of emulsified recycling agent and water will be determined by Quality Control
Laboratory in conjunction with PRSI. Adjustrnents will be made as llecessaty based on the coating,
compaction and breaking pl'operties and field gradations. All adjustments will be documettted by PRSI and
approved by the Engirreer.
The recycled material will then be loaded from the finished stockpile by PRSI into trucks provided by the
General Contractor who will then pave and compact the recycled tnaterial to a final compacted thickness of
3-iuches using equiprnent outlined in the project specifications. General Conttactor wilt verif, thickness
with probes.
During the placemeut and compactiou operations Quality Control Laboratory will condLrct nttclear testing in
accordance witlr ASTM D 2950 and determine the sequence and rnanner of rolling necessary to obtain the
maxirnurn compaction by establishing a rolling vs. densi[y chart that shows the progress of densification
fLorn initial laydowrr through rnaxirnum obtainable density at the "break over poitrt". Quality Control
Laboratory will verifu the maxirnurn density is being achieved in each lot prior to allowing tlte compaction
operations to proceed to the ne.rt lot. The roller pattern will be selected that produces the densest recycled
pavement without causing shoving, displacement or cracking. 'flre need to allow solne cul'e titne between
roller passes rvill be detennined by Quality Control Labomtory.
After initial compaction has been achieved, and prior to opening the recycled pavement mixture to traffic, a
fog seal coat will be applied by General Contractor to the recycled pavement surface at a rate of
approximately0.lO-gals/squareyardofdilute(l:l)emulsifiedrecyclingagent,SSlhorequivalent. If
necessaty to prevent pickup, the fog seal will be covered with sand at a rate of 1 to 2 pounds per sqtnre yard
by General Contractor. In the event that excess sand is allowed to buildup it will be lemoved lrom the
paveurent surface by sweeping. Hand srveeping will utilized as possible to minimize damage to a freshly
recycled surface.
After a rnirrimunr of 2-days of cure, Quality Contlol Laboratory will verif, the moisture contetrt of the in-
place recycled pavernent. Upon the velification that the residual moisture of the in-place lecycled pavemetrt
is belorv 2.0Yo the recycled pavement rvill be recompacted by General Contractor using compactiou
eqtriplneut outlined in thc project specifications. Quality Control Labotatory will conduct nttclear testing in
accordance rvith ASTM D 2950 and detelmine the sequetrce and lranuer of rolling llecessaty to obtain the
lnaxilnum compaction by establishing a rolling vs. deusity chart that shows the progress of densification
fronr iuitial rolling thlough uraxirnurn obtaiuable density at the "breal< over point". Quality Control
Laboratory will verifu the maxirnurn density is being achieved for each lot prior to allowing the compaction
operatious to proceed to tlre next lot. The roller pattern will be selected that produces the densest recycled

Bid Award for Contract No. CS-0484: For Equipping Well No. 21 and
Related Site Work
Recommendation
It is recommended thatthe City Council:
A. Find that the proposed project, For Equipping Well No. 2l and Related Site Work, attached
hereto, is exempt under the California Environmental Quality ACT (CEQA) in accordance with
CEQA Guidelines Section 15301, subsections (b) and (d), because the project involves negligible
or no expansion of use beyond that existing at the lead agency's determination; and
B. Accept the bid from Environmental Construction, Inc., as the lowest responsive and responsible
bidder and enter into the attached contract, in an amount not to exceed $ 1,348,85 I .00, For
Equipping Well No. 2l andRelated Site Work, Contract No. CS-0484. Furthermore, authorize a
contingency amountof $135,000.00 in the event an unexpected changed condition in the
project occurs and grant authority to the City Administator to issue a change order for an amount
up to the contingency amount.
Background
The Departnent of Public Works, Water and Development Services (Deparffnent) looked into cost
effective measures to develop water sources to meet short and long term water demand requirements. With ever
increasing environmental regulations and persistent drought conditions, there may be a time in the not too
distant future where surface water supplies are no longer available to augment water demand conditions
in the region and the Crty may have to rely solely on its groundwater supplies to meet its water demand
needs.
The Deparfinent determined through an extensive cost analysis, that it would be more cost effective to
utilize the existing indusrial well at the former Smurfit Container Corporation site to consfruct a wat€r pump
station, as opposed to drilling a new well. In this pursuig the Departnent retained the services of Richard C.
Slade & Associates, LLC (Slade) who performed a hydrogeological evaluation of the subject well. The
evaluation consisted of a multi-phase test pumping methodolory to ascertain the downwell condition and to
access the current production capacity and water quality. The Stage I Phase was performed utilizing a normal
pumping sequence without the use of a packer. The test results of the Stage I Phase indicated that the well had
llevated levels of Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) that exceeded the Maximum Containment lrvels
(MCLs) for those constituents. In the Stage 2 Phase, a packer was inflated at 500 feet in order to isolate the
upper set of perforations from the well. The test results of the Stage 2 Phase determined that the VOC levels are
well below esablished MCLs. The results of the hydrogeological evaluation were submitted to flre California
Departrnent of Public Health (CDPH) for review. The CDPH findings concluded that the installation of an
inflatable packer, combined with water qualrty monitoring, are reasonable measures to ensure that the subject
well is suitable for potable use; and that no water treatment plant will be required in order to place the subject
well online. The Departrnent confacted with Cannon Engineering Corporation (Cannon) to develop technical
specifications and to perform contract administration when the project scheduled to commence.
Moreover, the CDPH, now the State Water Resources Contol Board (SWRCB), will require the
Department, upon completion of the projec! to test the discharge water from the subject well to confirm
previous water quality findings. ln addition, quarterly monitoring will be required in the upstream capture zone.
If water quality conditions change in the future, the SWRCB may require the Department to install freatnent
facilities.
On April 7,2015, the City Council authorized the advertisement of the Notice Inviting Sealed
Competitive Bids For Equipping Well No. 2l and Related Site Work. The Notice Inviting Bids was
posted on the City's website and published in the Vernon Sun newspaper. In addition, the Notice Inviting
Bids was advertised in the following construction related websites: Bid America, Planroom Bidboard,
McGraw-Hill Construction Dodge, and Reid Construction. The specifications included the standard terms
and conditions for the contract which have been approved by the City Council.
On May 5,2015, a pre-bid meeting was held to review the project specifications in detail. The
bids for Contract No. CS-0484 For Equipping Well No. 2l and Related Site Work were received and
opened on May 28,2015. The calculated results were as follows:

BASELINE PROJECT SCHEDULE
The Contnactor shall submit his/her work Baseline Project Schedule, in electronic as well as hard+opy format,
to the Director at the pre-construction meeting showing in detail how the Contractor plans to execute and
coordinate the Work. The mnstruction schedule shall show the sequence of work, critical path and estimated
time for completion of each segment of work. This schedule must be reviewed and accepted by the Director
before the Contractor will be permitted to begin work. ln addition, the Contractor shall submit a detailed schedule
forecasting two (2) weeks of work describing each day's wo*. This schedule shall be updated and submitted to
the City every other Monday during the constructron period. The Contractor shall give 48 houB notice to the City
Engineer prior to the start ofthe work.
1.At a minimum, the Baseline Project Schedule activities shall be coded on a work discipline basis
and by geographic area or location on the Poject. The Baseline Project Schedule shall include a
detailed description ofeach activity code. The Baseline Project Schedule shall be based on and
incorporate contract milestone and completion dates specified in the Contract Documents. lt shall
depict events, jobs, and their intenelationships and shallrecognize the pogress that must be made
on one task before subsEuent tasks can begin, The schedule shall be compehensive and shall
include all logical interdependencies and interactrons requircd to perform the Work ofthe Project.

Project Schedule is accepted by the City, it shall be deemed pa( of the Contract Documents, lf
the Baseline Project Schedule is not accepted by City, Contractor shall revise the Baseline Poject
Schedule, in accordance with the recommendatons of the City, and re-submit same for
acceptance, no later than seven (7) calendar days after receipt of said recommendation.
Acceptance of Baseline Poject Schedule by City, failue to include an element of work, or
inaccuracy in Baseline Project Schedule shall not relieve Contractor fom the resrcnsibility for
accomplishing the Wo* in accordance with the Contract Documenb.
Float
1. Critical Work activities are delined as Work activities which, if delayed or extended, will delay the
scheduled completion of the milestones and/or time of completion, All other Work activities are
defined as non+ntical Work activities and are considered to have float, Float is defined as the
time that a non-cntical Work activity can be delayed or extended without delaying the scheduled
completion of the milestones and/or time of completion. Float is considered a Project resource
available to either party or both parties as needed. Once identified, Contractor shall monitor,
account for, and maintain float in accordance with Critical Path Methodology,
ARTICLE 4
GC-29
4
B.
Delays of any non-critical Work shall not be the basis for an extension of Contract Time until the
delays consume all float assocrated with that non-critical Work activity and cause the Work activity
to bemme critical.
It is acknowledged that City-caused time savings (i.e., cntical path submittal reviews retumed in
less time than allowed by the Contract Documents, approval of substitution requesb which result
in a savings of time for Contractor, etc.) create shared float. Accordingly, City+aused delays may
be offset by City-caused time savings.
C. Early Completion
While the Contractor may schedule completion of the Project earlier than the date established by the
Contract Documents, no additional compensation shall become due the Contractor for the use of float
time between the Contractois projected early completion date and the date for Substantial Completion
established by the Contract Documents, unless an eariier (advanced) time of completion is requested
by Contractor, agreed to by the City, and formalized by Change Order.
SCHEDULE UPDATES
With each Application for Payment submitted by Contractor (other than the final Application for
Payment), the Contractor shall submit to the City an updated Project Schedule revised to indicate the
Work mmpleted, status of Work in progress, all progress slippages, @rective actions taken, or
slippage carry-over, for all anticipated delays or difficulties, and all other information required to
accurately present the actual status of the progress of the Work as of the date of the Application for
Payment. lf the Contractor does not submit an updated Project Schedule with an Application for
Payment, City may withhold payment, in whole or in part, until the updated Poject Schedule is
submitted. ln the event that an update to the Project Schedule indicates a delay to the Contract Time
the Contractor shall propose an affirmative plan to conect each such delay, including overtime and/or
additional labor, if necessary. ln no evenl shall any Pmject Schedule update constitute an adjustrnent
in the Contract Time, any deadline, or the Conbact Sum unless any such adjustment is agreed to by
the City and authorized pursuant to Change 0rder or Work Directive,
At no time shall historical data contained within the updated Project Schedule (i.e. completed activities)
be removed and/or altered in any way. This historicaldata is to be preserved within each ofthe updated
Project Schedules and submitted with the final schedule update to reflect the actual sta( and finish
dates for each actvity within the Schedule.
Any work stoppages within individual work activities that exceed seven (7) calendar days in duration
shall be clearly indicated within the updated Pmject Schedule. ln cases where unplanned activity work
stoppages exceed seven (7) calendar days activities shall be added to the Poject Schedule to clearly
indicate the work stoppage period and identi{y forecasted resumption and mmpletion of the activity
where work has stopped. Contractor shall clearly note all schedule revisions when Project Schedule
updates are submitted, as required in this Paragraph 4.02 above.

6.06 PRICING CHANGES IN THE WORK
Altemative Methods of Pricing
The amount of any adjustment by Change order or Construction Change Directive increasing or
decreasing the Contract Sum shall be determined by the Director using one or a combination of the
following methods:
1.Lump Sum. By mutual acceptance of a lump sum proposal from Contractor properly itemized
and supported by sufficient substantiating data to permit evaluation. Such proposal shall be
based solely on Allowable Costs, as defined in Subparagraph 6.06-C, and Allowable Mark-Ups,
as defined in Subparagraph 6,06-E, and shall not include any costs or expense that is not
permitted by the terms of any provision of the Conkact Documents,
Unit Prices. By unit prices contained in Contracto/s original Bid and incorporated in the Contract
Documents or fixed by subsequent agreement between City and Contractor. Unless otherwise
stated in the Bidding Documents, unit prices stated in the Contract Documents or agreed upon
bythe County and Contractorshall be deemed to include and encompass allAllowable Markups,
Time and Materials. By calculating the actual Allowable Costs directly incuned, plus a sum for
Allowable Mark-Ups on such Allowable Costs.
Deletion of Work. By Unit Prices contained in Contractois original Bid and incorporated in the
Contract Documents, or by using the Schedule of Values to determine the value of the decrease
of the Contract Sum, less the value of any Work performed, plus a reasonable percentage of
the decrease for the Contracto/s saved overhead unless the Schedule of Values allocates
general conditions cosb to individual line items, in which case no percentage of the decease
shall be added. When a change consists of both addition and deletion of Work, the added costs
and deleted costs shall be calculated separalely, and then added together, resulting in the net
cost for the change, The Allowable Mark-Up shall be applied to this net cost,
Contractor Maintenance of Daily Records for Changes

encounter conditions which the Contractor believes would obligate the City to adjust the Contract
Sum and/or the Contract Time, Contractor shall maintain detailed recods of the cost of such
changes on a daily basis summarized in a daily report supplemented by back-up records. Such
records shall include without limitation:
a. Labor. At the close of each day on which such Extra Work is performed, Contractor

shall waive any rights for recovery of Allowable Costs incuned for Extra Work performed that
day. The failure of the Contractor to secure any required authentication shall, if the City elects

CITY CLERI('S ClIFICE STAFF REPORT
CITY ADMINISTRAT!ON
DATE:

FROM:
RE:
July 7,2015
Honorable City Council
Mark C. Whitworth, City Administrator /'/ .
Adoption of an Ordinance to Amend Certain Sections of the Vernon
Municipal Code Relating to the Vernon Housing Commission
Recommendations
The Vernon Housing Commission and City Staff recommend the City Council:
A. Find that the actions recommended in this staff report are exempt from the California
Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) in accordance with Section 15061(b)(3), the general
rule that CEQA only applies to projects that may have an effect on the environment.
B. Hold the first reading of and subsequently adopt an ordinance to arnend Section 2.125(b)
of the Vemon Municipal Code to remove the first responder leasing priority, effective at
5:01 p.m. on December 8, 2015.
As part of the aforementioned ordinance, City Staff further recommends the City Council:
C. Amend Section 2.123(a) of the Vemon Municipal Code to establish Commission
Member terms to run from July 1 through June 30, effective July 1, 2019 for four of the
seven seats, and effective July 1, 2021for the three remaining seats.
D. Include uncodified sections to establish the following upcoming terms in order to fully
effectuate the July I through June 30 terms:
Appointing Catesorv Term
Resident/Council Member Ausust ll.20l7 - June 30,2021
Resident No. I Auzust ll.20l7 - June 30,2021
Resident No. 2 August ll,2015 - June 30,2019
Business Representative No. 1 August ll,20l5 - June 30,2019
Business Representative No. 2 August ll,20l7 - June 30,202I
Business Representative No. 3 Ausust 11. 2015 - June 30.2019
Emplovee of Vernon Business Ausust 11. 2015 - June 30.2019
Removal of First Responder Leasins Prioritv
Section 2.125(b) of the Vernon Municipal Code ("Code") requires the Housing Commission to
provide first responders, as defined by the Commission with some minimum requirements
imposed by the City, a first priority in leasing units unless or until four (4) or more units are
concurrently occupied by first responders.
As required by the Code, first responders are defined as:
"City firefighters, police officers, emergency medical technicians, and similar positions held
by employees of businesses located in Vernon."
As further required by the Code, and in order to clarify the last category of the aforementioned,
the Commission established the following definition of a "business first responder":
"A business first responder is someone who is employed by a business located in the City of
Vernon, regularly works 30 hours or more per week at a location in the City of Vemon, and
holds either a current Emergency Medical Technician (EMT) certificate or a Community
Emergency Response Training ("CERT") certificate recognized by the City of Vemon."
As many of you may recall, the establishment of the Housing Commission in July 2011 was one
of the earliest and most critical objectives among a sweeping series of good governance reforms
enacted by the City in response to efforts by members of the state legislature to disincorporate
the City. At the time the Commission was established and the first responder leasing priority
was imposed by the City Council, there was much discussion and debate among the
Commission, key stakeholders, and interested parties as to the importance and value of such a
priority and the particular rules and limitations that should apply to such a priority if it were to
exist. Pros and cons, such as the added safety provided to people and property versus the
potential perception of favoritism and possible disproportionate representation that could result,
were fleshed out by the Commission and the City Council. In light of the historic transition in
which the City had entered and after careful consideration of all factors, the Council established
the first responder priority and limit as outlined above.
Now, nearly four years after the Commission's widely successful overhaul of the City's housing
policies and procedures, the question of the continued importance and value of the first
responder leasing priority compared against some of the practical challenges and negative
perceptions it brings about has come up. As such, City staff presented the mafier to the Housing
Commission for discussion at its June 10, 2015 meeting. The discussion included the following
additional questions/discussion points that would need to be addressed if the first responder
leasing priority were to continue, along with City staff s thoughts and recommendations:
1. How should on-going first responder status be verified?
2. What should happen if there is a change in first responder status during tenancy?
3. Should there be any specific occupancy requirements for first responders?
Staff recommended that, if the Commission were to recommend the discontinuation of the first
responder leasing priority, consideration be given to the timing of such a change so as not to
unfairly impact any self-identified first responders who have submitted Expression of Interest
Forms under the current priority for the lottery drawings to be held this calendar year. As such,
staff recommends the discontinuation of the first responder leasing priority take effect at 5:01
p.m. on December 8, 2015, immediately following the deadline for interested parties to submit
Expression of Interest Forms for the December 9,2015lottery drawing.
The Housing Commission is prepared to take up the discussion of what, if anyhing, should be
addressed in relation to the three existing tenants who obtained their units as a result of the first
responder leasing priority, and make recommendations to the City Council accordingly.
Imolementation of July I throueh June 30 Commission Member Terms
In recent years, the City has established several new commissions and committees to ca:ry out
important work undertaken as part of the City's good governance reforms. With the exception of
the Housing Commission, the terms of each of the boards run from July 1 through June 30,
whether or.a2 or 4-year basis.
For the sake of consistency and parity among the various boards, it is recommended that Section
2.123(a) of the Vernon Municipal Code be amended to set the terms for Housing Commission
Members to run from July 1 through June 30. In order to avoid disruption to any existing terms,
it is recommended that the change in term take effect in20l9 for four of the seven Commission
Member seats, and in202I for the remaining three seats.
In order to fully effectuate the change in Housing Commission Members' terms, it is
recommended that the City Council include an uncodified section in the ordinance to set the
expiration of upcoming new terms at June 30 of their respective years.
Fiscal Impact
There are no known or anticipated costs associated with the recommendations outlined in this
staff report.
