insurance against legal liability arising out of activity related to the performance of this
Agreement, on a form acceptable to Jefferson County Risk Management in the amounts
of not less than $1,000,000 Each Claim and $2,000,000 Aggregate. The professional
liability insurance policy should be on an “occurrence” form. If the professional liability

be purchased for three (3) years after the end of this Agreement, at the Consultant’s sole
expense. The Consultant agrees the Consultant’s insurance obligation to provide
professional liability insurance shall survive the completion or termination of this

and forward that full text to the County. Certificates of coverage as required by this
section shall be delivered to the County within fifteen (15) days of execution of this

required by this Agreement, or any portion thereof, may be withheld from payment due,
or to become due, to the Consultant until the Consultant shall furnish additional security
covering such judgment as may be determined by the County.

created pursuant to Ch. 48.62 RCW shall be non-contributory with respect to any policy
of insurance the Consultant must provide in order to comply with this Agreement.
The County may, upon the Consultant’s failure to comply with all provisions of this
Agreement relating to insurance, withhold payment or compensation that would
otherwise be due to the Consultant.
The Consultant’s liability insurance provisions shall be primary and noncontributory with
respect to any insurance or self-insurance programs covering the County, its elected and
appointed officers, officials, employees, and agents.
Any failure to comply with reporting provisions of the insurance policies shall not affect
coverage provided to the County, its officers, officials, employees, or agents.

made or suit is brought, except with respect to the limits of the insurer’s liability.

shall furnish separate certificates and endorsements for each subconsultant. All insurance

are not intended to be an indication of exposure nor are they limitations on
indemnification.
The Consultant shall maintain all required insurance policies in force from the time
services commence until services are completed. Certificates, insurance policies, and
endorsements expiring before completion of services shall be promptly replaced. All the
insurance policies required by this Agreement shall provide that thirty (30) days prior to

employees separate from or in addition to any equity owners, sole proprietor, partners,
owners or shareholders of the Consultant, the Consultant shall maintain workers’
compensation insurance at its own expense, as required by Title 51 RCW, for the term of
this Agreement and shall provide evidence of coverage to Jefferson County Risk
Management, upon request.
Worker’s compensation insurance covering all employees with limits meeting all
applicable state and federal laws. This coverage shall include Employer’s Liability with
limits meeting all applicable state and federal laws.
This coverage shall extend to any subconsultant that does not have their own worker’s
compensation and employer’s liability insurance.
The Consultant expressly waives by mutual negotiation all immunity and limitations on
liability, with respect to the County, under any industrial insurance act, disability benefit
act, or other employee benefit act of any jurisdiction which would otherwise be

Exhibit A
Jefferson County Department of Public Works
Port Hadlock Wastewater System
Environmental Documentation and Permitting
Project Description. The scope of work includes assistance with the finalization of the
environmental documentation and permitting assistance for a new 0.25 MGD wastewater
treatment plant, effluent reuse (infiltration) field, and influent pipeline. The treatment plant will
be designed in accordance with the Pt. Hadlock UGA Sewer Facility Plan Update, February
2021.
The scope of work includes the following tasks and is separated to support anticipated funding
requirements:
Project Management:
• Progress Reporting - Prepare monthly project status reports that provide support
documentation for the invoices and compare expenditures with task budgets.
Documentation will include details of expenditures on each task and will show the hours
worked by project personnel and other direct expenses related to the task. Reports will be
submitted with monthly invoices.
• Quality Assurance/Quality Control - Quality Assurance/Quality Control (QA/QC) will
provide an independent review of all major submittal products. All QA/QC comments
will be incorporated into the submittals or will be documented as to why comments are
not included. The project manager will coordinate all of the County comments.
SEPA Compliance
A project-level SEPA Environmental Checklist was prepared in October 2013, but was not
published at that time. ESA will revise and update the SEPA checklist to reflect the current
project, updated regulations, and project information. The document will be reviewed by the
project team and will be submitted to Jefferson County Planning Department for review and
publication.
• ESA will provide an updated review draft for team input.
• ESA will prepare a camera-ready SEPA checklist for submittal to Jefferson County
Planning Department.
• All permitting and review fees will be paid by Jefferson County Public Works.
• Participation at a SEPA public meeting is not anticipated.
Final Design
Wetland mitigation drawings were prepared to the 90% level in 2013. ESA will review and
revise the contract drawings and specifications for construction of the required critical areas
mitigation.
• ESA will provide an updated review draft of the mitigation design for team input.
• ESA will prepare a camera-ready mitigation for inclusion with permit submittals as well
as inclusion in the project Bid Set.
Permitting
A variety of permits are required to construct the WWTP, influent pipeline, reuse field, and
collection system. It is assumed that these permits will be submitted at generally the same time
frame. Project phasing or schedule delays could result in permit application delays and may
warrant additional scope and budget.
Because wetland delineations are only valid for 5 years, ESA biologists will conduct a site visit
to confirm wetland boundaries and ratings of potentially impacted wetland and their buffers.
ESA will prepare an update to the 2013 Critical Areas report, incorporating any Jefferson County
code updates.
State and Local. Permits will be prepared and submitted on behalf of Jefferson County
Public Works.
The anticipated list of permits includes, but may not be limited to:
• Conditional Use Permit – Jefferson County
• Shoreline Substantial Development Permit – Jefferson County
• Critical Areas/Habitat Management Plan Review – Jefferson County
• Stormwater Permit – Jefferson County
• Building Permit: Jefferson County
• Street Use/Right of Way Use Permit –Jefferson County
• NPDES Construction Stormwater General Permit – Department of Ecology
• Coastal Zone Management Consistency – Department of Ecology
It is our understanding that the Reclaimed Water Permit from the Washington Departments
of Ecology and Health will be obtained by TetraTech, as well as a Franchise and Variance
from Washington State Department of Transportation.
• ESA will conduct a one-day site reconnaissance to verify wetland boundaries and will
provide an updated review draft of the Critical Areas report for team input. It is
anticipated that wetland boundaries have not changed substantially and delineation of
new wetland boundaries will not be needed.
• ESA will prepare a camera-ready Critical areas report for submittal to Jefferson County
Planning Department.
• Participation at a Conditional Use Hearing is anticipated.
• All permitting and review fees will be paid by Jefferson County Public Works.
Federal. Depending upon the final design elements and potential funding sources,
compliance with federal regulations may be required. These documents and permits are
listed separately in the event that permit triggers can be avoided, and/or federal funding
sources are not sought.
Several environmental documents were prepared during preliminary design efforts
including a Biological Assessment for Section 7 of the Endangered Species Act, and for
Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act. These documents will be reviewed
and updated as needed to comply with current regulations.
Should wetland impacts be unavoidable, a permit would be triggered under Section 404 of
the Clean Water Act. ESA would prepare a JARPA and supporting documentation to be
submitted to the US Army Corps of Engineers.
Should federal funding be sought, ESA would prepare the required crosscutter review.
