Leighton Consulting, Inc. Page 4
on or to enforce the terms of this Agreement. This indemnity shall apply to all claims and
liability regardless of whether any insurance policies are applicable. The policy limits do
not act as a limitation upon the amount of indemnification to be provided by the

and Consultant is not an agent or employee of City. The manner and means of
conducting the Work are under the control of Consultant, except to the extent they are
limited by statute, rule or regulation and the expressed terms of this Agreement. No civil
service status or other right of employment shall accrue to Consultant or its employees.
Nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to constitute approval for Consultant or any
of Consultant's employees or agents, to be the agents or employees of City. Consultant
shall have the responsibility for and control over the means of performing the Work,
provided that Consultant is in compliance with the terms of this Agreement. Anything in
this Agreement that may appear to give City the right to direct Consultant as to the details
of the performance of the Work or to exercise a measure of control over Consultant shall
mean only that Consultant shall follow the desires of City with respect to the results of the
Services.
11. COOPERATION

of this Agreement or for other periods as specified in this Agreement, policies of insurance
of the type, amounts, terms and conditions described in the Insurance Requirements
attached hereto as Exhibit C, and incorporated herein by reference.

identified in Exhibit A and the Letter Proposal. Consultant shall be fully responsible to
City for all acts and omissions of any subcontractor. Nothing in this Agreement shall
create any contractual relationship between City and any subcontractor nor shall it create
any obligation on the part of City to pay or to see to the payment of any monies due to
any such subcontractor other than as otherwise required by law. City is an intended
beneficiary of any Work performed by the subcontractor for purposes of establishing a

Proposal for Geotechnical Observation & Testing Services CLA.0013163005
Balboa Island (Prof. No. 23W11) / Shorecliff Community (Prof. No. 24W14)
City of Newport Beach
SCOPE OF WORK
The scope of our services will consist of field observation and testing (soil/base/AC) and
in-house laboratory testing. We have budgeted for 40 full -days (280 hours) for the Balboa
Island project (3,867 linear feet @ 80 feet per day), and 22 half- and full -days (96 hours)
for the Shorecliff Community project work. Attached Table 1, Fee Estimate, presents a
detailed list of budgeted services. A summary of anticipated tasks is presented below:
Trench Backfill, Aggregate Base and Asphalt Density Testing: Observe earthwork
operations and perform density testing to verify project relative compaction standards for
trench backfill, aggregate base and asphalt. Testing and observation will be performed on
a full-time basis. Testing will be in accordance with the project specifications, specifically,
ASTM D 1557.
Asphaltic Laboratory Testing: Perform laboratory testing on collected asphalt samples
to include maximum density (Caltrans Test Method 308).
Geotechnical Laboratory Testing: Perform geotechnical laboratory tests on soil and
imported aggregate base material to support field compaction testing.
Project Management: Leighton Provide necessary management, supervision, quality
control and administrative support services. Review DFRs and laboratory test results.
SCHEDULE
We request at least one working day (minimum 24 hour) advance notice when scheduling our
field personnel. Calls to our dispatch at (866) LEIGHTON after 3:00 pm (prior work day) or on
weekends and holidays are not addressed until the first following working day, without prior
arrangement. We anticipate our personnel will be on site periodically for both full time and/or part
time observation and testing, as requested by your field representative. We request that you
partner with us to manage our budget, by avoiding unnecessary trips to the site and to combine
required observation and testing, whenever possible into one visit. We will work with your field
representative to reduce standby time or unnecessary trips to the site.
FEES AND TERMS
The proposed geotechnical field and laboratory testing services during construction will be
performed on a time -and -expense basis at the rates listed on the attached Professional Fee
Schedule (4 pages). Our budgeted hourly rates are based on the assumption that this IS a
California prevailing wage project. Please let us know if this is not a prevailing wage project, so
rates can be reduced accordingly.

BUDGET ESTIMATE
A construction schedule was not available to us at the time we prepared this proposal. To
establish a budget, assumptions of required hours were made. Details regarding our anticipated
scope (budgeted hours and laboratory tests) and assumptions are presented on the attached
Table 1, Fee Estimate. As noted in Table 1, the total estimated fees for this proposal based on
assumed hours and tests equals Fifty Two Thousand Five Hundred Twenty Six Dollars
($62,626.00). Note that our fees for construction testing services will be primarily dependent upon
the various contractor's operations, methods and scheduling. Therefore, our fees may vary from
what is estimated on the attached table. The following assumptions have been made to estimate
our costs for geotechnical and material testing during construction:
Access: We assume the site will be readily and safely accessible to our staff and their
field testing equipment during construction, without delay. We also assume free parking
will be available on or close to this site.
No Overtime: Our estimate does not include overtime charges. Overtime work (over 8
hours per day, weekends or holidays) will be billed in accordance with the attached
Professional Fee Schedule.
Invoicing: We assume that our standard invoice and breakdown of fees will be acceptable
for payment. A typical copy can be provided upon request.
Safety
Site safety is the responsibility of the contractor. Leighton field staff will abide by measures
established for the projects by your site construction team, and don conventional and customary
personal protection for construction sites, including hard hats, safety glasses, safety gloves and
orange vests. Our personnel will notify the contractor's site representative upon arrival.
Terms and Conditions
We propose to execute the above -described scope of work under the terms and conditions of our
On -Call Professional Services Agreement, dated June 8 2021, executed between the City of
Newport Beach and Leighton Consulting, Inc. If the services are awarded to Leighton and the
Scope of Work is acceptable to you, please send us a Purchase Order for review and signature.
The scope and fees set forth in this proposal reflect the risks that are limited by the terms and
conditions in our On -Call Professional Services Agreement. Any changes in these terms and
conditions may require a change in our scope of services and fees. Your assent to our beginning
work prior to written execution of a mutually acceptable Purchase Order constitutes your
agreement that terms and conditions of our On -Call Professional Services Agreement shall
control.
