City of La Quinta
It should be noted that, based on conversations that LWA has had with State Water Board staff as well as
statements made by State Water Board staff at California Stormwater Quality Association (CASQA)
meetings, the City may, in fact, switch to Track 2 in the future if additional analyses demonstrate that it
would be infeasible to meet the Track 1 requirements. In order to switch Tracks, the City would need to
develop the required information for Track 2 and work with Regional Water Board staff to ensure approval.
LWA has evaluated the project and understands the special concerns, such as the importance of cost
effective implementation and leveraging existing control measures, and the sensitivity in discussing various
approaches with staff at the Regional Water Board. Our proposed approach incorporates proven strategies
and sound recommendations to ensure successful completion of all tasks outlined in the RFP Proposed
Scope of Services. See Section 2. Scope of Work for a detailed discussion of the project's tasks, sub -tasks,
and deliverables, as well as the project schedule.
1.2. Technical and Management Approach
LWA partners with our clients and stakeholders to collaboratively develop and implement pragmatic,
science -based compliance programs that improve water quality and protect water resources. In this
capacity, LWA will provide the City with specialized and complementary capabilities to develop the
Jurisdictional Map and FCS Analysis. As demonstrated in Section 3. Statement of Qualifications, LWA has
served in similar capacities in support of Track 1 and Track 2 trash compliance efforts for stormwater
permittees throughout California. Hallmarks of our approach include bringing flexibility to the project
elements while managing the project to meet the stated end goals, integrating multi -disciplinary experts
into a cohesive working team, and providing an adaptive atmosphere that encourages productive
communication among the project team, client, and stakeholders.
To manage and complete the technical tasks required to successfully develop a Jurisdictional Map and FCS
Analysis, LWA will implement our project management approach which has been proven effective on
stormwater program projects for more than 300 municipal clients. The team includes a Project Manager
and technical staff with significant regulatory and technical expertise in stormwater programs and the
Statewide Trash Amendments. Figure 1 on the following page illustrates the composition of the project
team, as well as task assignments, to ensure that we provide quality service and all deliverables within the
project's cost and time constraints.
The LWA project team will be led by Mr. Paul Hartman as the LWA Project Manager (PM). Mr. Hartman
has proven organizational and project management skills, as well as strong interpersonal and
communication skills. He has a track record in leading teams to accomplish specific technical tasks and
address complex regulatory issues to develop pragmatic programs. As the primary and day-to-day point of
contact (POC) to the City for this project, Mr. Hartman will oversee the work performed for each task,
manage the contract, and ensure that we provide high quality deliverables and that work is completed on
time and within budget. The Task Leads will be responsible for on -time completion of their assigned tasks
and for coordinating all work products with the Project Manager. At the start of the project, we will clearly

2.0 Scope of Work
LWA partners with our clients and stakeholders to collaboratively develop and implement pragmatic,
science -based, compliance programs that improve water quality and protect water resources. In this
capacity, LWA will provide the City with specialized and complementary capabilities to support the City on
the Stormwater Trash Order Final Jurisdictional Map and FCS Analysis. As demonstrated in Section 3, the
LWA project team has served in similar capacities in support of Track 1 and Track 2 trash compliance efforts
for storm water permittees throughout California. Hallmarks of our approach include bringing flexibility to
the project plan while managing the project to meet the stated end goals, integrating multi -disciplinary
experts into a cohesive working team, and providing an adaptive atmosphere that encourages productive
communication among the project team, client, and stakeholders.
As further described in this section, tasks outlined in the RFP require development of the following:
Final Jurisdictional map, including alternative land use rationale, as needed
FCS Analysis, including recommendation of approved FCS trash treatment control devices, estimated
cost for installation, operation, and maintenance of the FCS devices, and a schedule to accomplish
installation of all FCS devices to achieve full compliance
LWA recognizes that the Water Code Section 13383 requirements are resource -intensive. Given the
required investment to comply with the Statewide Trash Amendments, LWA is prepared to work with the
City to develop the most efficient and cost-effective approach moving forward.
2.1. Scope of Work Program
Consistent with the scope of services outlined in the RFP, the strategy for the tasks below are based on the
City's selection of Track 1 and leverages LWA's extensive statewide experience and tools developed for
trash management efforts. Although the City has selected Track 1, the City does maintain the right to
switch to a Track 2 approach. If the City decides to switch tracks, LWA has direct experience developing
Track 2 Implementation Plans and can provide a scope of work to assist with that effort, if necessary.
The project will begin with a kickoff meeting to introduce the project team, the proposed approach to the
project, and to refine the schedule if necessary.
Task 1. Develop Jurisdictional Map
Sub -Task 1.1. Review and Revise Preliminary Jurisdictional Map
Given the inherent challenges of classifying land uses as PLUS as defined by the Statewide Trash
Amendments, and the importance of PLUS for the placement of FCS, LWA will leverage its experience in
PLU determinations by first performing an evaluation and review of the preliminary jurisdictional map(s)
developed by the City as a part of the initial Track selection in September 2017. A review of the preliminary
jurisdictional map will capture any updates to land uses since the City's September 2017 submittal, and
ensure that all required priority land use areas that need to be included are shown within the map.
Accurate identification and quantification of PLUS provides the foundation for compliance. The Statewide
Trash Amendments defines the PLUs as:
• High density residential;
• Commercial;
• Industrial;
• Mixed urban; and
• Public transportation.
Page 1 5 Stormwater Trash Order Jurisdictional Map &
Full Capture Systems Analysis, RFP No. CLQ06122018
Proposal Provided to:
;�;1
City of La Quintal
While this mapping exercise may seem simple, some key issues that typically arise include:
Determination of which existing categories of land uses should be characterized as PLUS;
If industrial facilities with coverage under the Industrial General Permit should be included; and
The buffer size that should be used for transportation facilities.
LWA will work with the City to collect and analyze City -provided and other data by first issuing a call for
data via email. Following the timely receipt of relevant data, LWA will review the existing land uses and PLU
determinations submitted by the City in September 2017. LWA will identify land use areas that may be
challenging to classify so that informed, City -specific decisions can be made. If there are any PLUs that are
missing or that were misinterpreted, the jurisdictional map(s) will be updated accordingly. In addition, LWA
will work with the City to leverage the local knowledge of City Staff to update the preliminary jurisdictional
map as needed and to identify the potential for equivalent alternate land use substitutions.
As noted in the RFP, the City may identify and substitute equivalent alternate land uses as PLUS with
appropriate justification. Equivalent alternate land uses are areas that generate rates of trash that are
equivalent to or greater than the PLUS being substituted, and may include areas of trash accumulation that
may not qualify as a PLU. If the City is interested in identifying alternative land uses, LWA recommends that
this discussion occur during Sub -Task 1.1, with further refinement during Sub -Task 1.2, so that the updated
preliminary jurisdictional map can incorporate any appropriate equivalent alternate land uses up front. If
alternative land uses are identified and substituted for the PLUS, LWA (upon approval) can assist the City
with the development of a brief, one -page rationale for submittal to the Colorado River Basin Regional
Water Quality Control Board Executive Officer for approval. This approval would need to be submitted by
the City with the December 1, 2018 submittal package.
Deliverables (as needed based on the review):
Email/short document summarizing the results of the review and recommended changes or
approaches
Discussion with the City to review the results and discuss/agree upon the mapping approach
Updated draft preliminary jurisdictional map for review/comment by the City
Sub -Task 1.2. Update Jurisdictional Map with Proposed Certified Full Capture Systems
Using the updated preliminary jurisdictional map developed in Sub -Task 1, and the results of Task 2 FCS
Analysis, LWA will work with the City to ensure that the final jurisdictional map also includes:
The corresponding storm drain network and associated drainage areas; and
The proposed locations for the certified FCS (as defined within the Statewide Trash Amendments),
including existing and potential FCS.
The intent of this task is to develop the key deliverables that are required for the December 1, 2018
submittal to the State Water Board. LWA will provide a draft final jurisdictional map incorporating all the
required elements and results from Sub -Task 1.1 and Sub -Task 2.1 to the City for review and comment,
LWA will then incorporate any comments into a final jurisdictional map for submittal to the Regional Water
Board by the City. LWA will also provide the City with an ArcGIS map package containing shapefiles
associated with the final jurisdictional map, including any updated shapefiles from Sub Task 1.1.

Task 2. Full Capture System Analysis
Sub -Task 2.1. Analyze and Identify Certified Full Capture Systems
LWA has worked with Phase I and Phase II municipalities to identify regional and/or distributed locations
within a storm drain system for device installation by prioritizing preferences for device type, cost,
installation feasibility, and O&M considerations. Similarly, LWA will work with the City to identify the
Track 1 compliance priorities and provide the City with a strategic approach for the installation of the FCS.
As a first step, LWA will work with the City to identify the types of FCS that are already in place or that will
be installed, as well as the potential locations for installation. The State Water Board has identified a range
of multi -benefit treatment systems' as well as treatment control devices' that are deemed FCS devices
pursuant to the Statewide Trash Amendments. As a result, the City will want to identify any multi -benefit
treatment systems that may currently be implemented within the City in order to get credit for those areas
instead of installing another device.
Following the identification of existing multi -benefit treatment systems, LWA will conduct an analysis of FCS
to identify device type and potential installation locations throughout the City. The configuration of the
storm drain system allows for the strategic installation of the FCS. For example, a municipality could install
catch basin inserts distributed throughout the storm drain system draining PLU areas, or it could install
larger, regional types of systems, such as continuous deflection system (CDS) units, at strategic points
identified to address an entire PLU catchment area. Identifying the number and types of FCS and their
installation locations is critical in order to minimize the number of devices required and reduce the costs of
compliance and future maintenance.
To facilitate the analysis of FCS, LWA will have a call with the City to discuss areas of concern, as well as
areas where the City may want to prioritize FCS installation. It is important to keep the 10-year timeframe
in mind when evaluating locations for FCS to ensure installations can be accomplished within the regulatory
timeframe. In addition to timeframe considerations, LWA will work with the City, including Public Works
staff, to provide an understanding of the costs of different devices, including both capital and O&M
considerations, and any City's preferences.
LWA will work with City staff to evaluate factors that can substantially increase the overall implementation
costs and installation feasibility, such as:
Known or unknown characteristics of the storm drain system;
* Areas that lack the infrastructure to support FCS, and
• Areas subject to flooding.
Understanding the design and installation requirements for the range of available FCS and how they may
perform, given the characteristics of the storm drain system and right-of-way/easements, is imperative
prior to finalizing the type(s) of FCS that will be purchased, installed, and maintained. LWA has experience
working with municipalities throughout the state to identify potential FCS and assessing their storm drain

systems and right-of-way/easements for installation and 0&M feasibility. It may be necessary for the City
to field verify desktop assessment results in key locations in order to confirm the type(s) of FCS to install.
LWA has prepared field forms and guidance for evaluating locations that can be shared with the City to
assist City staff with these field verifications.
Deliverables:

Based on the results of Sub -Task 2.1, LWA will develop an estimated cost for the installation of FCS
following a Track 1 approach. The cost assessment will include O&M considerations and anticipated FCS
replacement costs. Given the 10-year compliance timeframe, the costs and resources needed will increase
each year up to the 10-year mark, as additional devices will be installed each year and subject to the
stormwater O&M program. Under a Track 1 approach, the majority of costs are expected to be incurred by
the City's storm drain maintenance division.
Costs will be based on LWA's experience with O&M for existing trash programs throughout California, as
well as discussions with vendors regarding the appropriate care of specific devices. In addition to the costs
of the individual devices, LWA will solicit maintenance costs and other information from City staff in order
to develop a cost estimate specific to the City's program.
LWA will use the information gathered in Sub -Task 2.1 to develop a time schedule for FCS installation.
LWA's approach for developing the time schedule will include the division of the City's jurisdiction into 10
subsections (i.e., one subsection for each year), each of which will identify PLUS and locations of FCS to be
installed for compliance within the 10-year timeframe. LWA will consider the City's priorities for where to
begin device installation, design and engineering costs, O&M needs of devices, and if right-of-way or
easements are required for the installation of devices. These considerations will allow for prioritization of
device installation timing and even distribution of costs over the 10-year installation and compliance
period.
While the time schedule developed by LWA will cover the entire 10-year compliance period, it is our belief
that the first few years of implementation will serve as a pilot study for device installation. Information
gathered during the initial installations, as well as the introduction and approval of new devices by vendors,
may alter the initial costs and decisions presented in the schedule. As such, the schedule will include a
narrative allowing for modifications to the 10-year plan, should changes be desired in subsequent years
based on experience and knowledge gained from the initial installations.
Deliverables:
• Draft and Final table of estimated costs for FCS installation and O&M
• Draft and Final time schedule for installation of proposed FCS

2.2. Project Schedule
LWA will work closely with the City to complete the required tasks by November 26, 2018 based on an
anticipated Notice to Proceed (NTP) of August 1, 2018. Given the complexity of the work effort and the
need to communicate with the City, our approach for successfully developing the jurisdictional map and
FCS analysis is based on: 1) maintaining clear lines of communication, 2) informing and receiving input from
City staff on an ongoing basis, 3) controls to complete tasks on schedule, and 4) controls to complete the
project within budget. The LWA Project Manager will maintain a master schedule with the due dates and
budget for each task. The schedule may be developed and shown with Microsoft Project, or other
scheduling software preferred by the City, and the budget will be presented in spreadsheets. The LWA
Project Manager will oversee tasks in progress and work closely with the Task Leads to ensure that the
work meets overall project needs and is completed on schedule and within budget. This approach has been
used successfully on other projects to ensure completion of high quality work on time and within budget.
The general project schedule presented in Figure 2 pertains to the activities and deliverables described
above and is based upon our understanding of the tasks to be completed as required within the RFP. The
schedule identifies the deliverables, dates of completion, and designated review times with the City and
stakeholders in order to finalize the documents. Should the NTP be provided prior to or after August 1,
2018, all dates in the schedule will shift accordingly. Based on the results of the kickoff meeting with the
City, start and completion dates may be modified to meet the needs of the project. Parameters used to
frame this schedule included the following:
■ The Agreement will be approved and executed in July, 2018;
• The NTP will be issued by August 1, 2018;
■ The Final Jurisdictional Map will be completed by November 26, 2018;
■ All reviews and approvals of work products will be completed within the timeframe identified within
the final schedule.
Adherence to the proposed schedule requires meeting work product development and review timelines.
Should certain steps require additional time (which may occur for a variety of reasons), LWA will take all
reasonable measures to accommodate the changes while minimizing disruption to other schedule
elements. However, in some cases, delayed completion of schedule elements could cause delays in
completion of other related work. LWA will, in all instances, promptly identify the best possible manner to
rectify the schedule and communicate a revised schedule to the City Project Manager so that the best
course of action can be selected.

3.2. Experience with Similar Work
With a demonstrated history of success in assisting municipalities with stormwater quality and trash
management and compliance, LWA is recognized as a leader within California for water quality -related
planning efforts. Highlights of our unique expertise and include:
• Municipal Stormwater Policy and Permitting. LWA's stormwater policy and permitting assistance is
comprehensive and includes preparation of Reports of Waste Discharge, evaluation of data sets
required for permit renewal, development of draft permit language, permit negotiations with Regional
Water Board and USEPA staff, assistance with permit compliance issues, and preparation of required
technical studies and reports. LWA has been involved in all phases of stormwater management for
municipal and State clients, with extensive experience in planning and implementation of stormwater
management plans and monitoring programs.
• Forty Years of Professional Engineering in California. Since 1979, LWA has provided a wide range of
professional engineering consulting services in California, ranging from traditional water and
wastewater engineering to highly specialized water quality, regulatory, and technical stormwater and
watershed management -related services.
• Master Planning for Public Works Departments. LWA assists municipalities with master planning and
identifying key projects for incorporation in capital improvements program. LWA has assisted municipal
stormwater programs in identifying and evaluating opportunities to divert dry weather urban runoff
from the storm drain system to the sanitary sewer and potential treatment BMPs to mitigate or
eliminate pollutant loadings to the receiving waters. For diversions to the sanitary sewer, we conduct
hydraulic modeling to verify that there is capacity to manage the dry weather urban runoff. The
resulting information and data are used to prioritize potential projects. LWA has also led and
contributed to other master planning efforts, such as the SWRP development (e.g., for the City of Yuba
City and Counties of San Mateo, Sacramento, Marin, and Contra Costa), watershed plan development
(e.g., WQIPs and Enhanced Watershed Management Plans), RAA planning efforts to identify facilities
and program implementation plans to meet TMDL requirements, and water reuse and strategic
planning. These efforts require system modeling and development of engineering solutions to meet
regulatory requirements. LWA specializes in the interpretation and implementation of water quality
policy to minimize unnecessary capital and ongoing operation and maintenance (O&M) expenditures.
■ Use of Spatial Data Analyses: LWA assembles databases as needed and conducts a variety of spatial
analyses to identify program needs and priorities. In addition to the geospatial analyses conducted to
date for the Statewide Trash Amendments to identify PLU areas and trash capture device locations,
LWA assisted Los Angeles County municipalities to meet their Monitoring and Reporting Program
requirements. For this work, databases were assembled on a Watershed -scale and allowed LWA to
review and summarize stormwater system data, identify data deficiencies errors and gaps, and propose
potential steps and a schedule to rectify the deficiencies. The resulting data and analyses were used to
develop a robust and comprehensive monitoring program.
LWA's reputation is a direct result of the dedication of our professional staff and our commitment to
fostering long-term relationships built on trust with our clients. We have worked closely with various public
agencies to evaluate and develop trash compliance approaches, analyze spatial data, develop trash control
implementation plans and O&M programs with corresponding cost estimates, and conduct trash
assessments, either through modeling or direct measurement. Our extensive, relevant experience is
summarized in Table 1 followed by narrative summaries for three project examples with references. LWA
can readily provide additional references who can attest to our expertise, professional commitment, and
proven processes that deliver projects on time, within budget, and to the satisfaction of our clients.

previous trash management programs.
■ Developed key considerations (other than cost) for selecting a track. These included implementation
feasibility, compliance assurance, and long-range planning and implementation.
It Developed initial recommendations for an Implementation Plan, including a monitoring plan for
Track 2.
= Developed recommendations for incorporating the trash amendments into the MS4 Permit.
This work was followed by a finalized analyses and additional work to support the City in making an
informed Track 1/Track 2 decision. The scope of work included updates and finalization of priority land
use analysis, development of options and preferred approach to determine FCSE, updates to funding
needs, assessment of Track 1 feasibility, and development of Track 2 implementation options based on
recent watershed planning efforts.
Most recently, LWA developed an Implementation Plan for a Track 2 approach for the City. This includes
the development of methods to achieve FCSE, how the City will demonstrate attainment of FCSE, and a
schedule for implementation.

Description of Services:
The Amendments to the Water Quality Control Plan for the
Ocean Waters of California to Control Trash and Part 1 Trash
Provisions of the Water Quality Control Plan for Inland
Surface Waters, Enclosed Bays, and Estuaries of California
(Statewide Trash Amendments) was adopted on April 7,
2015. The Statewide Trash Amendments require that the
City of Napa (City) choose either "Track 1" or "Track 2" to
comply with the narrative water quality objective for trash.
Under Track 1, the City would install an FCS network for all
storm drains located in its PLU areas (defined by the
Statewide Trash Amendments). Under Track 2, the City could
use a combination of controls (multi -benefit, structural
and/or institutional), if it demonstrates that the combination
of controls performs as well as Track 1. The City wanted to
know if Track 1 were feasible for all priority areas in the City
of Napa. Even if Track 1 were not feasible, the State Water
Board encourages the installation of FCS where feasible.
Therefore, this analysis was necessary for assessing the
installation of any FCS. Work included:
✓ Evaluate/Develop Trash Compliance
Tracks/Programs
✓ Evaluate GIS Data Layers to Create
Visual Tools
✓ Develop Priority Land Use Maps
✓ Identify and Assess Potential Trash
Capture Methods and Locations
✓ Evaluate/Identify Full Capture
System Devices and Full Capture
System Equivalency
✓ Develop Implementation Plans and
Cost Estimation
✓ Evaluate Operation and
Maintenance Plan Costs
✓ Statewide Trash Amendment
■ Prepared a list of criteria (drainage area, size of pipe [upstream and downstream], pipe material,
inverts, soil types and sub -sheds) for the installation of full capture devices.
■ Reviewed City's Master Drainage Study, topographical maps, and Federal Emergency Management
Agency (FEMA) flooding maps to create detailed maps of City's jurisdiction.
■ Performed site visits to evaluate locations for full capture device installation, starting from the outfall
end of the system in priority areas and work upstream to assess the feasibility of using larger capture
devices, e.g., hydrodynamic separators (HDS), to address runoff from the drainage area or subsheds.
■ Examined design, drainage, engineering feasibility and project cost.
■ Developed a field form to use during these visits to provide the City with necessary information to
move forward with ordering and installation of devices.
■ Evaluated existing devices obtained through the Association of Bay Area Governments (ABAG) San
Francisco Estuary Partnership (SFEP) grant.
* Recommended the most appropriate full -capture devices for the City to install in inlet or outlet
structures and the drainage basins located within high PLU areas. Recommendations included areas
where one larger or multiple smaller devices could be installed.
■ Considered design and engineering costs and long-term maintenance of recommended devices.
■ Prioritized trash capture devices within basins and designated high PLU areas as described in
Statewide Trash Amendments and determine feasibility and constraints.
■ Divided the priority areas into ten subsections to present a plan for installing full -capture devices in
100% of the priority areas within the 10-year timeframe.
