c. Noise: Recreational facilities have a potential to conflict with residential uses to the northeast of the project site. Cost of a noise evaluation is estimated to be $5,500. d. Drainage: The drainage study can be obtained for a fee of $4,000. These studies must be completed prior to finalizing the IS. Once this document is completed, it will be possible to determine whether a Negative Declaration is the appropriate environmental determination, or whether an environmental impact report (EIR) is required. If an EIR is required, TDA will terminate the work effort under this scope; prepare a Notice of Prepazation for the City; and assist the City to distribute the NOP. This proposal does not address the work scope or fees for preparing an EIR. If the Ciry decides to proceed with an EIR, it can use the NOP and IS as the scope of work for such a document and obtain a cost estimate for preparing this document, either from us or from another consultant. Assuming [hat an EIR will not be required, TDA will finalize :he IS and submit it for review 5y the City and your office prior to distribution. The fee for completing the IS, excluding the technical studies, is $7,000. TDA will utilize the data from the project description and the technical studies to finalize the IS that will describe all potential impacts from implementing the proposed project. The impact forecast will be highly specific and mitigation measures will be identified, as appropriate, for the environmental issues. A mitigation monitoring plan will be developed under this task and it can be included in the IS and distributed for public review if City so desires. The completed draft IS is the deliverable for this project. The City, of course, makes the final determination regazding the content of the IS for publication and distribution for review and comment. Task 3: TDA will meet with the City to collect all comments on the draft IS. These comments will be responded to and Proposed Negative Declaration and substantiating IS for public distribution will be compiled and printed for distribution. TDA will suppiy the Ciry with up to 35 bound copies of the document for distribution and will arrange to have the requisite 15 copies delivered to the State Clearinghouse and all parties on distribution. If more copies are required, they will be printed and delivered to the City based on actual printing costs. TDA has allocated 20 hours to this task, including clerical staff support. At the end of this task, the Proposed Negative Declazation will be distributed for a 30-day public review and comment period. The fee for this task will be $3,500, including estimated printing and mailing costs. Printing and mailing costs are estimated to be $I,000, but will be invoiced at actual cost. Task 4: Following completion of the 30-day review period (note that TDA will meet with the you upon request to discuss any comment letter that anives before the end of the review period), TDA will meet with the City to review proposed responses to all comments received on the document. Once general agreement on the content of responses is obtained, they will be prepared and a draft responses to comments document will be delivered to the City for final review and comment. We anticipate allocating 20 hours of effort to this task, including one meeting with the City. The responses to comments will be completed within two weeks of the close of the public comment period, barring the need to develop original data. If major new issues aze raised that were previously not addressed in the IS and that the City concludes must be addressed in the Negative Declazation E_'
