perform is without the CONSULTANT's or its employee's fault or negligence, the termination shall be deemed to
be a termination for the convenience of the AGENCY. In such an event, the CONSULTANT would be reimbursed
for actual costs in accordance with the termination for other than default clauses listed previously.

any remedies of any type it may have against the CONSULTANT for any breach of this AGREEMENT by the
CONSULTANT, or for failure of the CONSULTANT to perform SERVICES required of it by the AGENCY.

Task 3: Public Outreach
3.1 DEVELOP PUBLIC OUTREACH PLAN
AGENCY and the Peninsula Trails Coalition have a strong history of public
involvement in planning and decision making for the ODT, including this connection.
The effort to develop a shared use regional trail for the ODT should be guided by
informed community members as well as technical experts, with plenty of
opportunities for the general public to weigh in on plan development. Involvement and
cooperation from adjacent property owners along the corridor as well as trail users will
be critical to a successful project. A meaningful public outreach process will inform
and involve the right group of stakeholders to lay the groundwork for the future
development of this regional recreational corridor.
CONSULTANT will devise an outreach program. A successful outreach program must
accomplish several objectives:
• Capitalize on the existing support of local interest groups to extend the ODT
• Reach a broad spectrum of people to find and present critical issues
• Engage key public and private stakeholders and affected property owners
along the trail alignment at a one-on-one level to understand and overcome
their concerns and work to elicit their support of the outcome of the project,
document their conversations, and present the findings to the AGENCY
• Build an informed base of participants that actively contribute to the public
conversation
• Generate trust in the process and the outcome by the general public, key
stakeholders and opinion leaders
• Capture the interest of the news media and increase the reach of public
education and community awareness
• Demonstrate broad citizen support for the outcome
The CONSULTANT will work with the AGENCY's project manager to devise a public
outreach plan tailored to the specific needs of the ODT Preferred Route Report. This
may include strategies such as posting of project information on the AGENCY's
website, writing articles or a newsletter to post on social media, gathering public
comment from social media, coordinating public open houses, and conducting one-
on-one meetings with key stakeholders.
CONSULTANT will prepare presentation materials for each meeting, facilitate the
meeting, record input received, and follow up with a summary of the meeting and
defined follow up tasks.
3.2 PUBLIC OPEN HOUSES
CONSULTANT will hold up to two public meetings / open houses to allow the public
to voice their opinions on the project. For each meeting, CONSULTANT will prepare
presentation materials including graphics, mapping, photographs, PowerPoint
presentations, and written materials suitable for distribution. The CONSULTANT will
facilitate the meetings and record comments received. AGENCY project manager will

schedule for the project, existing conditions and opportunities and constraints
analysis. This will include exhibiting maps of key factors influencing the trail design
such as significant habitat areas, wetlands, existing use patterns, slope analysis,
vegetation inventory, soils, viewpoint, and access points. Depending on the meeting
attendance level, CONSULTANT may opt to break the group up into smaller working
groups and have citizens draw up alignment options and present their thoughts and
comments prior to closing out this meeting. CONSULTANT will discuss evaluation
criteria to be used to narrow the field of trail alignment options.
Public Workshop #2: CONSULTANT will present the preferred alignment, concept
drawings of design elements, preliminary cost estimates, phasing recommendations
and management/maintenance strategies.

Task 4: Alignment Development
4.1 ALIGNMENT ALTERNATIVES
This task will involve developing and laying out potential trail alignment alternatives.
This will require a synthesis of existing data gathered to this point, supplemented with
a significant amount of fieldwork to verify appropriate fit for trail alignment alternatives.
CONSULTANT will explore alternatives to identify the best possible alignments from
the perspective of the trail user and the project goals. CONSULTANT will map
potential alignments based upon field reconnaissance and data collection work. This
will be followed up by walking and ground-truthing each alignment utilizing GPS.
CONSULTANT will refine the alignment maps based upon this fieldwork.
CONSULTANT will illustrate potential connections to key destinations such as other
local and regional trail links, access and viewpoints, parks, schools, commercial and
employment areas, as well as potential connections to the surrounding
neighborhoods.
4.2 ALTERNATIVES EVALUATION
CONSULTANT will analyze alignment alternatives in accordance with some or all, but
Exhibit A — Scope of Work Page 7 of 13
not limited to, the following evaluation criteria:
Safety and Liability: Evaluate alternatives based on conformance with State and
Federal guidelines etc., and input from experienced planners, engineers and
landscape architects.
Functionality/Efficiency (Need for the Trail): As a part of the larger ODT, evaluate
alternative alignments' abilities to provide a positive user experience that reflects the
need for access to the trail as a destination, a location for healthy recreation, and a
route for active transportation.
Environmental Impacts: Identify environmental impacts and opportunities for pre -
mitigation through re-routing, native species revegetation, habitat improvements, trail
setback and buffering of resource areas.
Cost: Initial and life -cycle costs for each alternative, especially where bridges, tunnels,
boardwalks, utilities, or other expensive infrastructure improvements are being
considered.
Constructability: Analyze whether the proposed trail alignment is buildable with
conventional construction techniques.
Ease of Implementation: Evaluate the relative complexity of funding, right-of-way
acquisition, design, construction and operation.
Aesthetics (User Experience): Evaluate accessibility to scenic views, significant
ecosystems (e.g. forests, fields, streams, lakes, salt water, wetlands), favorable sun
exposure, prevailing wind direction relative to trail orientation, noise from aircraft and
road traffic, odors / air quality, access to drinking water, toilets, camping, lodging, food,
hospital, and bike shop.
Public Support
Consistency with Local Plans: Evaluate local trail plans and policies, and determine
compatibility/conflict with the proposed project.
Probable Users: Develop alternatives with potential users in mind. These include
bicyclists, hikers, walkers, joggers, in-line skaters, equestrians, people in wheelchairs,
emergency, maintenance and security vehicles.
Trail Usage (Probable Use): Evaluate trail segments for level of anticipated use. This
typically has a direct tie to prioritization and phasing of improvements.
Property Impacts: Evaluate alignment options for positive and adverse impacts to
property, existing uses (e.g. Off Road Vehicles, hunting, agriculture, logging, etc.), and
right-of-way needs (assumes acquisition based on a "willing seller" only).
Evaluation and screening of the alignment options will be accomplished by
constructing a decision -matrix that scores each alignment option or trail segment by
the criteria such as those described above. Additional criteria may come forth through
discussions with the AGENCY and senior advisory committee.
4.3 PROPERTY REQUIREMENTS AND STRATEGIES
CONSULTANT will identify the location, lengths and widths of property required for
Exhibit A — Scope of Work
Page 8 of 13
the preferred alignment, along with ownership status (private or public).
CONSULTANT will provide right-of-way acquisition strategies, including purchase,
easements and license agreements. The CONSULTANT will also provide model
agreements for possible use in obtaining easements.
4.4 PREFERRED TRAIL ALIGNMENT
From the alternatives evaluation process, a preferred trail alignment will be developed.
Alignment mapping will be developed in enough detail to show constraints and make
decision -points clear. CONSULTANT will prepare text, sections, profiles, plans, maps
and sketch diagrams as necessary to convey the preferred system. CONSULTANT
will confirm the proposed trail in the field with the AGENCY project manager by
walking, driving, or mountain biking the alignments, noting key reference points of the
alignment.
4.5 COST -BENEFIT REVIEW
For the preferred trail alignment, the CONSULTANT shall provide a cost -benefit
review that considers the total preliminary estimated trail development and
maintenance costs as proportionate to the need for the trail, the probable use, and
benefits of the trail.
Task 4 Deliverables

Recommended preferred trail alignment, Right-of-way summary, Cost -Benefit
Review
Task 5: Design Concept Development
5.1 CONCEPTUAL DESIGN ELEMENTS
Proposed trail improvements will be described in plan and profile views, supported
with sections and illustrations to fully depict the trail alignment and recommended
improvements. When appropriate, design elements will conform to established State
and Federal guidelines, including WSDOT, AASHTO, ADA, MUTCD, FHWA, ODT and
other sources. Proposed innovative treatments will be well documented. Design
drawings will be developed for key elements anticipated for the project.
A design concept for the trail will be developed that is compelling and will help create
a unified theme. The origin for the design may come from sources including the site
history and character, surrounding land uses and landscape character, local design
vernacular, and native construction materials for the region. The design concept will
be presented in a series of image boards and written text, with sample treatments
illustrated in rendered sketches of key project elements such as trail structures,
benches, and signage.
Specific components of the design that will be illustrated in a plan, section, or
perspective sketches include the following items:
Site Furnishings
Exhibit A — Scope of Work
Page 9 of 13
The CONSULTANT will identify material selection for bollards, benches, picnic tables,
and bike racks, in compliance with AGENCY, WSDOT, and ODT guidelines and fitting
with the design concept.

CONSULTANT will develop circulation design and layout plans for trailheads along
the corridor. The trailheads may include horse trailer parking, equestrian staging area
with horse hitching posts, signage, bike racks, and other site furnishings.
Crossings and Adjacent to Roadways
Roadways: CONSULTANT will review the site conditions and available traffic data
for roadway crossings and segments within road rights-of-way. CONSULTANT will
coordinate with WSDOT and provide crossing concepts and design guidelines for
roadway intersections and parallel segments.
Bridges, Tunnels & Boardwalks: The CONSULTANT will develop sketches and
design drawings suitable for cost estimating to depict the bridges, tunnels and
boardwalk structures anticipated for specific locations along this trail alignment.
Task 5 Deliverables
• Conceptual design guidelines, preliminary layout, plan & profile, materials, and
furnishings graphics
Task 6: Permitting Overview
6.1 LOCAL REGULATORY PERMIT REVIEW
Based on the existing County zoning plans for the trail area, CONSULTANT will
determine whether the trail will be allowed outright. The need for a conditional use
permit (CUP) determination or environmental overlay may inform and affect the design
and alignment of the trail. For this reason, CONSULTANT will approach this step of
the process before addressing alignment and design. CONSULTANT will outline the
process and schedule for securing reviews and permits to construct the trail.
6.2 PERMITTING MATRIX
CONSULTANT will generate a matrix of Local, County, State, and Federal agencies
along with their associated permits, regulations, and reviews that pertain to the
planning, design, and maintenance of the ODT. Written explanations will be included
where appropriate. Matrix will include the appropriate scheduling of the permits'
application preparation, timing of applying, time for agency review and approval,
duration to permit expiration, and number of allowable permit renewal cycles.
6.3 ENVIRONMENTAL PERMITTING
Preliminary preparation will consist of collecting and analyzing existing environmental
data and information including but not limited to the following: recent aerial
photographs; National and Local Wetland Inventory Maps; Jefferson County Soil
Survey; Washington Department of Fish & Wildlife Priority Habitat and Species
Information; Washington Department of Natural Resources Natural Heritage Program

observations will be used in determining opportunities and constraints for selection of
a preferred trail alignment and specific design elements. Work will include observing
critical areas and features identified from existing data and information and locating
critical areas and features not found on base maps. Where appropriate, based on field
observations, adjustments to critical area boundaries will be noted on base maps.
Coordinates for new critical areas and significant features will be recorded in the field
using a GPS unit. Coordinates for adjusted boundaries of critical areas will also be
obtained with the GPS. Boundaries of critical areas will be based on field surface
observations. A technical memorandum will be prepared to present the results of the
data collection and fieldwork. This work will not include exhaustive delineation of
critical areas.
Several Local, State and Federal regulatory agencies, including Jefferson County;
Washington State Department of Fish and Wildlife; Washington State Department of
Ecology; Washington State Department of Archaeology and Historic Preservation;
and, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers have permitting authority. CONSULTANT will
contact these agencies to determine the permitting requirements, including the timing
of SEPA / NEPA if appropriate. CONSULTANT will include a discussion of what
impact State versus Federal funding has on which permits may be required.
CONSULTANT will refine the permitting requirements for the project, impact on project
phasing of construction, estimate permit fees and application preparation costs, and
present them in an easily readable matrix.
Task 6 Assumptions
• No site surveying will be performed under this scope of work.
Task 6 Deliverables
Working Paper #4: Regulatory requirements with respect to funding sources,
permitting matrix
Task 7: Preliminary Cost Estimate, Phasing, and Financial
Strategy
CONSULTANT will formulate an implementation plan that includes details on cost,
scheduling, and appropriate funding.
7.1 PRELIMINARY COST ESTIMATE
CONSULTANT will provide a detailed preliminary construction cost estimate per
Agency format, suitable for the level of detail of a route selection study, for the
preferred trail alignment and associated improvements. The costs will be separated
between land cost (rights-of-way, appraisal and acquisition costs, etc.), site
preparation, planning, surveying, design and engineering costs, construction costs,
construction engineering, management, inspection and testing costs, permitting,
Exhibit A — Scope of Work
Page 11 of 13
environmental documentation/mitigation costs, and maintenance costs.
CONSULTANT will use the latest available unit costs experienced by the Local, City,
County, and State agencies in tandem with the recent figures from comparable
communities on the Olympic Peninsula. CONSULTANT will provide AGENCY with all
calculations for quantities and costs.
7.2 PHASING RECOMMENDATIONS
The ODT Preferred Route Report will include a logical phasing plan that will build
momentum and support for the trail as each phase is implemented. A phasing plan
will be developed as part of CONSULTANT's work. The phasing will consider such
factors as (a) funding availability and requirements, (b) other programmed
transportation and recreation improvements, (c) eliminating trail access impediments
or safety hazards, (d) a rationale for system growth rather than as a series of
disconnected pieces, (e) political and community support, and (f) linkages to major
destinations. The phasing plan will recommend a ranking (low, medium, high) to
accomplish the phased program over time.
7.3 FINANCIAL STRATEGY
CONSULTANT will develop a financial strategy designed to increase the project's
chances of receiving competitive grants. CONSULTANT will provide a summary of
funding sources that are appropriate for this project, including the permits that are
triggered by the source of funding. CONSULTANT will include funding schedules for
each funding program, anticipated dollar amounts to be programmed, and any local
matching dollars required. CONSULTANT will provide a recommended funding
source for each phase of project improvement.
Task 7 Deliverables
Working Paper #5: Implementation program, preliminary cost estimate,
phasing plan, and financial strategy with implications for permitting
requirements
Task 8: Final Documentation
This task will involve preparing the draft and final Preferred Route Report. The report
will utilize the five previously delivered Working Papers and document the study
process, preferred alignment and design recommendations. CONSULTANT will
identify the most advantageous alignments from the perspective of the senior advisory
committee, the trail user and considering the following:
• Trail and community connections
• Environmental impacts
• Roadway crossings
• Security, safety and liability
• Cost and ease of implementation,
• Constructability
Exhibit A — Scope of Work
• Accessibility
• Public support
Page 12 of 13
• Property ownership and right-of-way acquisition strategies
CONSULTANT will work with the AGENCY project manager to prepare a high-quality,
easily modifiable map with supporting text, matrices, graphics, and diagrams as
necessary to convey the complete trail concept. The map will identify the primary trail
alignment and key features including, access points, connections to on -street
bikeways and trails, and other features. The map will include centerline, grading limits
(to identify necessary right-of-way width), structures and stationing at a 5% PS&E
design level suitable for seamlessly transitioning into further PS&E development, right-
of-way acquisition, environmental permitting, and grant applications. The standard of
care for all professional services performed or furnished by CONSULTANT under this
Agreement will be the care and skill ordinarily used by members of the subject
profession practicing under similar circumstances and in the same locality.
CONSULTANT will:
• Provide trail design sections for typical aspects of trail construction, including
constrained and unconstrained areas.
• Provide concept sketches of trail environment suitable to convey the vision and
potential of the ODT Preferred Route to the public. This will include section,
elevation, perspective sketches and illustrations of the trail.
CONSULTANT will produce one draft Preferred Route Report, circulate it to the
AGENCY and senior advisory committee for one round of revisions. Draft Preferred
Route Report shall include an executive summary. CONSULTANT will meet with the
AGENCY project manager to discuss how to incorporate comments into the final
report. The Final Preferred Route Report will include information generated from
previous tasks and incorporate revisions based on comments and input received.

Exhibit I
Alleged Consultant Design Error Procedures
The purpose of this exhibit is to establish a procedure to determine if a consultant's alleged design error is of a
nature that exceeds the accepted standard of care. In addition, it will establish a uniform method for the resolution
and/or cost recovery procedures in those instances where the agency believes it has suffered some material damage
due to the alleged error by the consultant.
Step I Potential Consultant Design Error(s) is Identified by Agency's Project Manager
At the first indication of potential consultant design error(s), the first step in the process is for the Agency's
project manager to notify the Director of Public Works or Agency Engineer regarding the potential design
error(s). For federally funded projects, the Region Local Programs Engineer should be informed and
involved in these procedures. (Note: The Director of Public Works or Agency Engineer may appoint an
agency staff person other than the project manager, who has not been as directly involved in the project, to
be responsible for the remaining steps in these procedures.)
Step 2 Project Manager Documents the Alleged Consultant Design Error(s)
After discussion of the alleged design error(s) and the magnitude of the alleged error(s), and with the
Director of Public Works or Agency Engineer's concurrence, the project manager obtains more detailed
documentation than is normally required on the project. Examples include: all decisions and descriptions
of work; photographs, records of labor, materials and equipment.
Step 3 Contact the Consultant Regarding the Alleged Design Error(s)
If it is determined that there is a need to proceed further, the next step in the process is for the project
manager to contact the consultant regarding the alleged design error(s) and the magnitude of the alleged
error(s). The project manager and other appropriate agency staff should represent the agency and the
consultant should be represented by their project manager and any personnel (including sub -consultants)
deemed appropriate for the alleged design error(s) issue.
Step 4 Attempt to Resolve Alleged Design Error with Consultant
After the meeting(s) with the consultant have been completed regarding the consultant's alleged design
error(s), there are three possible scenarios:
• It is determined via mutual agreement that there is not a consultant design error(s). If this is the case,
then the process will not proceed beyond this point.
• It is determined via mutual agreement that a consultant design error(s) occurred. If this is the case,
then the Director of Public Works or Agency Engineer, or their representatives, negotiate a settlement
with the consultant. The settlement would be paid to the agency or the amount would be reduced from
the consultant's agreement with the agency for the services on the project in which the design error
took place. The agency is to provide LP, through the Region Local Programs Engineer, a summary
of the settlement for review and to make adjustments, if any, as to how the settlement affects federal
reimbursements. No further action is required.
• There is not a mutual agreement regarding the alleged consultant design error(s). The consultant may
request that the alleged design error(s) issue be forwarded to the Director of Public Works or Agency
Engineer for review. If the Director of Public Works or Agency Engineer, after review with their legal
counsel, is not able to reach mutual agreement with the consultant, proceed to Step 5.
Agreement Number:
Exhibit I - Local Agency A&E Professional Services Negotiated Hourly Rate Consultant Agreement Page 1 of 2
Revised 11101/2017
Step 5 Forward Documents to Local Programs
For federally funded projects all available information, including costs, should be forwarded through the
Region Local Programs Engineer to LP for their review and consultation with the FHWA. LP will meet
with representatives of the agency and the consultant to review the alleged design error(s), and attempt to
find a resolution to the issue. If necessary, LP will request assistance from the Attorney General's Office
for legal interpretation. LP will also identify how the alleged error(s) affects eligibility of project costs for
federal reimbursement.
• If mutual agreement is reached, the agency and consultant adjust the scope of work and costs to
reflect the agreed upon resolution. LP, in consultation with FHWA, will identify the amount of
federal participation in the agreed upon resolution of the issue.
• If mutual agreement is not reached, the agency and consultant may seek settlement by arbitration
or by litigation.

Exhibit J
Consultant Claim Procedures
The purpose of this exhibit is to describe a procedure regarding claim(s) on a consultant agreement. The following
procedures should only be utilized on consultant claims greater than $1,000. If the consultant's claim(s) are a total
of $1,000 or less, it would not be cost effective to proceed through the outlined steps. It is suggested that the
Director of Public Works or Agency Engineer negotiate a fair and reasonable price for the consultant's claim(s)
that total $1,000 or less.
This exhibit will outline the procedures to be followed by the consultant and the agency to consider a potential
claim by the consultant.
Step 1 Consultant Files a Claim with the Agency Project Manager
If the consultant determines that they were requested to perform additional services that were outside
of the agreement's scope of work, they may be entitled to a claim. The first step that must be completed
is the request for consideration of the claim to the Agency's project manager.
The consultant's claim must outline the following:
• Summation of hours by classification for each firm that is included in the claim;
• Any correspondence that directed the consultant to perform the additional work;
• Time frame of the additional work that was outside of the project scope;
• Summary of direct labor dollars, overhead costs, profit and reimbursable costs associated with
the additional work: and
• Explanation as to why the consultant believes the additional work was outside of the agreement
scope of work.
Step 2 Review by Agency Personnel Regarding the Consultant's Claim for Additional Compensation
After the consultant has completed step 1, the next step in the process is to forward the request to the
Agency's project manager. The project manager will review the consultant's claim and will met with the
Director of Public Works or Agency Engineer to determine if the Agency agrees with the claim. If the
FHWA is participating in the project's funding, forward a copy of the consultant's claim and the Agency's
recommendation for federal participation in the claim to the WSDOT Local Programs through the Region
Local Programs Engineer. If the claim is not eligible for federal participation, payment will need to be from
agency funds.
If the Agency project manager, Director of Public Works or Agency Engineer, WSDOT Local Programs
(if applicable), and FHWA (if applicable) agree with the consultant's claim, send a request memo, including
backup documentation to the consultant to either supplement the agreement, or create a new agreement
for the claim. After the request has been approved, the Agency shall write the supplement and/or new
agreement and pay the consultant the amount of the claim. Inform the consultant that the final payment for
the agreement is subject to audit. No further action in needed regarding the claim procedures.
If the Agency does not agree with the consultant's claim, proceed to step 3 of the procedures.

Revised 1110112017
I
Step 3 Preparation of Support Documentation Regarding Consultant's Claim(s)
If the Agency does not agree with the consultant's claim, the project manager shall prepare a
summary for the Director of Public Works or Agency Engineer that includes the following:
• Copy of information supplied by the consultant regarding the claim;
• Agency's summation of hours by classification for each firm that should be included in the claim
• Any correspondence that directed the consultant to perform the additional work;
• Agency's summary of direct labor dollars, overhead costs, profit and reimbursable costs associated
with the additional work;
• Explanation regarding those areas in which the Agency does/does not agree with the consultant's
claim(s);
• Explanation to describe what has been instituted to preclude future consultant claim(s); and
• Recommendations to resolve the claim.
Step 4 Director of Public Works or Agency Engineer Reviews Consultant Claim and Agency Documentation
The Director of Public Works or Agency Engineer shall review and administratively approve or disapprove
the claim, or portions thereof, which may include getting Agency Council or Commission approval (as
appropriate to agency dispute resolution procedures). If the project involves federal participation, obtain
concurrence from WSDOT Local Programs and FHWA regarding final settlement of the claim. If the claim
is not eligible for federal participation, payment will need to be from agency funds.
Step 5 Informing Consultant of Decision Regarding the Claim
The Director of Public Works or Agency Engineer shall notify (in writing) the consultant of their final
decision regarding the consultant's claim(s). Include the final dollar amount of the accepted claim(s)
and rationale utilized for the decision.
Step 6 Preparation of Supplement or New Agreement for the Consultant's Claim(s)
The agency shall write the supplement and/or new agreement and pay the consultant the amount
of the claim. Inform the consultant that the final payment for the agreement is subject to audit.
