SIEMENS <br />Removal and Disposal <br />Siemens will be responsible for the removal and disposal of existing luminalre heads and any other <br />discarded materials as part of the California Recycle and Disposal Laws. Any hazardous materials <br />including universal waste will be discarded according to the provisions set forth in California law. All <br />materials removed that are able to be recycled will be recycled appropriately. <br />During the removal phase, all necessary and appropriate temporary traffic control measures will be <br />compliant with the California Manuel of Uniform Traffic Control Devices and or the Work Area Traffic <br />Control Handbook (WATCH). <br />Customer Acceptance/Project Commissioning <br />Commissioning for outdoor lighting Involves 1) a nighttime drive-by of streets with City <br />representative(s), 2) submittals for billing adjustments, and 3) confirmation upon receipt of the next <br />month's bill(s) that billing adjustments are accurate. We have found that one of the most Important <br />phases of any project is to visually confirm the post -project environment with the customer. We will <br />conduct a nighttime "drive-by" with City officials to ensure that lighting levels <br />are satisfactory. Common adjustments include: fixture shielding or <br />rotating/tilting, lumen output adjustment, recommended tree trimming by City <br />staff or their contractor, removal of closely spaced lights, or the addition of <br />light(s) where fixture spacing is much greater than typical, resulting in <br />unacceptable lighting levels. <br />Once the project Is complete, the application form described previously is <br />signed, Indicating the work is complete and the final Inventory file is submitted <br />along with copies of all invoices. The final inventory file becomes the basis of <br />the billing adjustments. Adjusting the billing frequently takes approximately 2 <br />billing cycles on the utility side. During project close-out, we will request bill <br />track and ensure the adjustments are correctly made. <br />Project Schedule <br />copies from the City to <br />Siemens understand the City wants to maximize the energy savings with this project. Siemens will <br />work closely with the City to develop a final project plan to ensure savings are realized as soon as <br />possible, our project schedule and the number of electricians we can source from our in-house <br />staff for the Installation work gives us the unique ability to expedite the completion of the <br />project as quickly as possible, maximizing the City's energy and cost savings. <br />Milestones <br />Siemens will utilize a milestone based approach in tracking the progress of this project, along with other <br />key performance indicators that will represent actual progress on the project, and will demonstrate that <br />the project is staying on track. <br />A preliminary schedule showing staffing, product procurement lead time, and proposed monthly <br />minimum installation quotas may be found in Scope of Services and Schedule section below. <br />Page 19 <br />
