The proposed study would involve making ambient noise measurements at the proposed site with existing equipment off and then performing measurements of present pump noise, evaluating the proposed new installation, then calculating the noise levels at the nearby residential receptor locations for the worst case operating conditions. Compliance with the City's noise ordinance and zoning standards for the intended use profile of the equipment would be considered. A general description of potential construction noise would be presented. From the noise analysis I would prepare a report containing a description of the field measurements, analyses, and, if required, recommendations for mitigation measures to meet the City of Cupertino noise standards. The estimated portion of work involved in each phase of the study would be as follows: Planning, data gathering and field work 25% Analysis of potential receptor locations and 25 associated property line noise levels General mitigation measure development 20 Recommendations and report preparation 30 Fees for the noise study would be based upon the time and materials actually required to complete the work as described above, at a rate of $150 per hour plus expenses, but not to exceed $2300. The study and report generally could be completed within two weeks after go-head and receipt of all needed project information. I would handle all phases of the study as project manager. I have over 25 years of experience in the noise analysis and mitigation field relating to community noise and land development projects, including many projects similar to this project in the South Bay, Santa Cruz, Monterey and the greater San Francisco Bay area, and many in Cupertino. I have attached a Statement of Qualifications for your information. A representative list ofECS noise studies completed can be provided on request. If you need more details on this proposal, or if the scope or estimated costs of the project are not satisfactory, please let me know immediately, so that we can make a mutually acceptable modification. If the proposed scope is acceptable, an authorized signature at the end of this document will allow this to serve as a Letter of Agreement and work can proceed at your convenience. I look forward to working with you and your team on this project. California Water Service Company Station 34 Noise Study Proposal, Cupertino Page 3 of3 Statement of Qualifications H.
