Scope of Services coordinate with the City for authorization to contact the proposed interviewees and to obtain the contact information. • Reports. Rincon will prepare reports in accordance with the requirements of ASTM E1527-13. The reports will document the information and findings of the research conducted in the above tasks, include a series of maps identifying existing site and nearby land uses and provide conclusions regarding the potential presence and impact of environmental site conditions. The Phase I ESA report will be signed by the Environmental Professional and will include the required declaration statement. For reports covering large areas, Rincon may also present the data in an ArcGIS Web Application that allows for the user to easily view the site boundaries, adjacent.property land uses, areas of potential environmental concern and quickly access detailed additional information on items of concern in an interactive, interned -based format. The benefit of using an ArcGIS Web application allows the technical documentation and data to be located in one place for reference. Further, if the Phase I ESA moves to a Phase II ESA, the Phase II ESA data can be included in the ArcGIS Database to build upon the Phase I ESA allowing one central database for the technical reports and spatial data for a project. C.3.2 Phase II ESA The objective of a Phase II ESA is to evaluate the nature and extent of contamination and to assess the significance of the contamination relative to established threshold levels or some other risk -based criteria. Phase II ESAs will be developed by the Phase ll ESA TA Manager in coordination with the PM, who is a California -licensed Professional Engineer, and the PIC, who is a California -licensed Professional Geologist and Certified Hydrogeologist. We understand that a Phase II ESA project underthis contract may involve assessment of soil, groundwater, soil vapor, water pipelines and related infrastructure materials, and/or building materials. Assessment is typically conducted in phases, which may include a preliminary site assessment, one or more subsequent phases of assessment, periodic monitoring, risk assessment, and an evaluation of risk - based cleanup levels. The assessments also involve working within established regulatory agency guidelines for assessment and reporting. That said, Rincon approaches Phase II ESAs holistically; we balance the benefits of a phased approach with the benefits of optimizing data collection during a single mobilization to meet project deadlines. While each project will be scoped, developed, and implemented consistent with the City's needs and relevant site -specific information, our approach to Phase II site Investigations will include the following tasks. • Work Plan. After the initial kick-off meeting with the City (and potentially a regulatory oversight agency, if applicable), Rincon will develop a scope of work to achieve the established goals of the assessment. A work plan will be prepared that details the following: project objectives; site history and background; regulatory framework; pre -field work tasks (e.g., permitting, notifications, utility clearance, etc.); site assessment tasks — methodology and procedures; laboratory analysis; quality assurance/quality control; reporting; and project schedule. • Health and Safety Plan. Prior to commencement of an assessment, a site -specific health and safety plan (HSP) will be prepared. For complicated sites or site with high levels of contamination, an additional review may be performed by Rincon's Health and Safety Officer pending site conditions. A site safety meeting will be held whereby all field personnel will be informed of possible site conditions and provided with a copy of the HSP. During the field work, daily tailgate meetings will be held prior to the commencement of each day's activities and a copy of the IiSP will be onsite at all Rincon Consultants, Inc. i i
