(Amec Foster Wheeler) has prepared this proposal for the Public Works Department of the City of Gilroy ( "the City ") to assist the City with its compliance with the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System ( NPDES) permit regulating stormwater discharges from Small Municipal Separate Storm Sewer Systems ( "MS4 ") issued by the State Water Resources Control Board ( "the Phase II Permit "). The proposal is for an increase of $200,000 to our existing contract with the City, for a total contract authorization of $300,000, with an extension of the contract completion date to June 30, 2017. BACKGROUND Amec Foster Wheeler submitted a proposal to the City on April 17, 2015, describing the plan to complete required NPDES stormwater compliance services during the 2014 — 2015 Fiscal Year. The tasks and budget originally submitted for the 2014 — 2015 Fiscal Year (FY) are shown below.

The detailed scope of work and budget for FY 2016 — 2017 tasks will be determined during the coming year; however, the annual budget proposed for each fiscal year is $100,000. SCOPE OF WORK The details of new tasks to be performed in FY 2015 — 2016 are described below. Task A — E.6. Program Management Activities scoped under this task include leadership in Phase II Permittee meetings with Gilroy, Morgan Hill, and south Santa Clara County, as directed by City staff. To the extent possible, meeting participation and coordination will take place by phone. Additional tasks include interaction with subcontractors, City staff, and the Central Coast Regional Water Quality Control Board (Regional Board) staff, as well as reviewing budgets and invoices and preparing monthly status reports. This task includes supporting City staff in the submittal of the Annual Report, assisting City staff with negotiation of submittal deadlines to the Regional Board, and supporting City Staff in pursuit of grant funding. Task B — EA0 Construction Site Investigation and Enforcement Support AMEC Foster Wheeler has already been authorized in FY 2014 -2015 to develop a "doForms" hand -held application to streamline the City's inspections and increase overall efficiency by allowing the City to print out inspection reports to mail to entities and query information needed for reporting and enforcement. In FY 2015 — 2016, new budget authorized under this proposal will be used to perform inspections totaling up to two working days. The primary purpose of these additional working days will be to train the City's inspector on use of the doForms and follow up with support in response to questions. Task C — E.12 Post - Construction Stormwater Management Program:'Landscape Code Gap Analysis and Training on the LID Guidance Manual No new activities beyond those authorized in the FY 2014 — 2015 budget are proposed for FY 2015 — 2016 for this task.

Amec Foster Wheeler Ms. Maria Angeles City of Gilroy October 2, 2015 Page 3 Task F — E.14 Program Effectiveness Assessment and Improvement Regional Board staff distributed a summary of their requirements for stormwater monitoring and effectiveness assessment on April 7, 2015. That summary established the basis for our April 17, 2015 proposal to complete FY 2014 — 2015. City staff met with Regional Board staff, along with AMEC Foster Wheeler and subconsultant Armand Ruby on May 15, 2015, during a Regional Board audit of the City's permit implementation. That meeting clarified Regional Board expectations and priorities. Based on feedback from the Regional Board and discussions with City Staff, Amec Foster Wheeler will complete the following activities under this Task F in FY 2014 -2015: • Prepare an outline of a Program Effectiveness Assessment and Improvement Plan ( PEAIP). The PEAIP is to be submitted to the Regional Board October 15, 2015. A cost assumption is that the PEAIP will be completed in the 2015 — 2016 Fiscal Year. • Review webinar materials provided by the Regional Board that describe expectations for catchment mapping. • Review existing graphic information systems (GIS) layers that will be provided to Amec Foster Wheeler by the City to assess suitability for catchment mapping for the PEAIP. • Begin catchment delineation based on contours, and superimpose those catchments with GIS layers showing outfalls, land use in catchments, creeks and channels, and the City's storm drain network. The City's GIS contractor will provide,Amec Foster Wheeler with GIS layers showing contours, land use boundaries, creeks and channels, and the storm drain network. The following activities will be completed under this Task F in FY 2015 — 2016: • Prepare a draft and final PEAIP based on the outline developed in FY 2014 — 2015. • Complete catchment delineation and mapping requirements according to Regional Water Quality Control Board guidance. This may include delineating potential pollutant sources and best management practices. The degree of detail representing pollutant sources and BMPs will depend on the amount of budget left after catchment delineation is completed. • Based progress and Regional Board review and comment, provide input to the City as to the scope of additional services the City needs from its GIS contractor to provide GIS layers and maps that meet Regional Board expectations for the PEAIP. The scope and budget for developing a Wasteload Allocation Attainment Program, previously described under this task, are now defined under a separate, new Task G below.
