UNDERSTANDING SCOPE OF SERVICES Project Understanding WRA is pleased to submit the following proposal for the Maple Leaf Court to Middle Fork Lane Pathway Project (Project). The pathway will involve construction of a five-foot wide natural surface trail approximately 1,230 linear feet on an existing easement. The easement traverses steep slopes and crosses Matadero Creek, which may entail installation of a pedestrian bridge. While the design will avoid or minimize environmental impacts to the greatest extent possible, some impacts may occur because of the Project. WRA understands that the Town of Los Altos Hills (Town) is seeking an environmental consultant to prepare an Initial Study (IS) for the Project under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), which may ultimately result in the preparation of a Mitigated Negative Declaration (MND). The preparation of an IS will be used to support the Town incorporating the Project into the General Plan. Our interdisciplinary staff along with our team of experienced subconsultants are prepared to bring our expertise to the Project to deliver a streamlined environmental review process that results in a solid environmental document to support Project implementation. Scope Of Work Task 1. Project Administration/Management Task 1.1 Kick Off Meeting WRA will host a virtual Project kick off meeting with Town staff to confirm Project details and expectations and will provide a meeting agenda and other meeting materials one (1) week in advance. This meeting will also involve: Review of the Project workplan and schedule Establishing roles and communication protocols between Consultant team and Town staff.

Regular progress updates will be provided to the Town's Project manager on a biweekly basis via email. in this message, we will communicate: the work items performed since the prior update; budget, schedule, and work progress; and a discussion of upcoming activities scheduled to occur in the subsequent work period. Deviations from the initial Project schedule will be discussed and corrective measures implemented to the satisfaction of the Town. Team Meetings We understand the importance of convening to work through any challenges that come up over the course of a Project and have included time for the Town and WRA staff to meet throughout the IS/MND process in addition to regular updates. This task includes up to 10 hours of meeting time with WRA staff to be used at major Project milestones. WRA staff will provide an agenda prior to the meeting and prepare meeting minutes. Monthly Invoicing At the end of each month, a monthly invoice will be provided, which will include billing for the month, Project billing total to date, the remaining budget and a breakdown of the expenditures and remaining budget per task. Regular coordination with Town accounting and other staff, as appropriate, is included as a part of this task. Deliverables: 0 Meeting agendas, meeting minutes, monthly invoices Task 2. Background Research and Project Description WRA proposes to kick-off the CEQA process with the Town by 1) collecting all relevant reports, drawings, and relevant background information; 2) discussing the proposed Project; 3) resolving issues regarding overall assumptions; and 4) identifying other key requests for information. WRA will review all relevant background information related to the Project to inform the preparation of the Project Description. Task 2.1 Background Research WRA will perform a desktop review of readily available and relevant studies, models, maps, permits, and records of the Project and its study area to develop a thorough understanding of the existing data. Task 2.2 Project Description, Our team will prepare a Project Description that describes the final Project and its construction method based on discussions with Town staff, the optional site visit, and mapping efforts. Using relevant background information and Project plans and drawings provided by the Client, WRA will prepare a draft Project Description for the IS/MND, which will include discussions of the following: 1) Project area regional and local location; 2) Project objectives and goals; 3) Project elements and characteristics; and 4) a list of approvals and regulatory permits that may be required for the Project. In most cases, this CEQA Project Description can offer a cost savings as the Project Description may be used for regulatory permitting efforts during the implementation phase of the Project. WRA will prepare a draft CEQA Project Description to be submitted to the Town within two weeks of receiving all background information needed from the Town. WRA will revise the Project Description based on one round of comments from the Town.

Cultural Resources Assessment Report and Tribal Notification (Indigenous Group) Task 3.1 Cultural Resources Assessment Report Indigenous Group will prepare a Phase I cultural resources analysis of the project site to identify any historical resources or tribal cultural resources, as defined by the California Public Resources Code, that may exist within the project site. Indigenous Group will request a records search from the Northwest Information Center of the California Historical Resources Information System for the project site and a 0.5 -mile buffer. Indigenous Group will conduct a pedestrian survey of the project site, revisit any previously documented resources within the project site, and document any resources greater than 45 years of age encountered within the project site. It is anticipated that one cultural resources specialist will visit the project site over the course of one day. For the purposes of this scope and fee, it is assumed that any previously documented resources are adequately documented, and that no new resources will be identified within the project site. If any undocumented resources are encountered, their locations will be noted, and they may be documented and evaluated under a separate scope. If resources are identified in the project site, additional studies may be recommended. Mitigation measures will be formulated to treat any resources, known or unknown, that may exist within the project site. Deliverable: • Phase I Cultural Resources Assessment Report Task 3.2 Tribal Notification Indigenous Group will conduct tribal notifications and assist the City with Assembly Bill (AB) 52 consultation. Indigenous Group will contact the Native American Heritage Commission (NAHC) and request a Sacred Lands File search and tribal contact list of the project site. Indigenous Group will prepare a notification letter to be sent under City letterhead to each tribe identified by the NAHC as having knowledge of and interest in the project site. The letter will notify the tribe of the project, request any information they may have about tribal cultural resources within the project area, and invite them to consult with the City. Once the City has approved the letter text, Indigenous Group will send the letter to each of the tribal contacts identified in the NAHC list. Indigenous Group anticipates for the purposes of this scope of work to send an initial notification letter to a maximum of 8 tribal nations and anticipate requests from 2 tribal nations for consultation. Because consultation must be conducted on a government -to -government basis, it is assumed that the City will conduct any subsequent consultation. Indigenous Group can make itself available to sit in on any consultation meetings requested by the tribal nations to explain the results of the Phase I study and document tribal concerns under a separate scope of work. Indigenous Group will prepare a log documenting all consultation and notification efforts as well as the results of consultation. Deliverable: • Consultation Log Task 4. Biological Resources To achieve cost savings, WRA will conduct the field survey work for the Aquatic Resources Delineation (colloquially "wetland delineation") and the Biological Resources Assessment (BRA) Report concurrently. However, to facilitate the separate CEQA process and potential future regulatory permitting for the proposed bridge over a stream course, WRA proposes to prepare two separate documents: (1) an Aquatic Resources Delineation Report to facilitate permitting and to inform the jurisdictional waters/wetlands section of the BRA; and (2) the BRA Report, which will build on the information gathered and analyzed for the Delineation Report. Task 4.1 Biological Resources Assessment Report WRA will produce a BRA in support of the IS/MND using information collected during the combined BRA and wetland delineation field visit. WRA will conduct a background review of relevant literature and databases to 0Proposal for Town of Los Altos Hills I Maple Leaf Court to Middle Fork Lane Pathway - CEQA IS/MND WRA Project #350230 1 July 2025 Docusign Envelope ID: 64910369-9FF7-4D3E-AF41-863D559CED1D wra Environmental `�- Consultants determine the potential for presence of sensitive biological resources. WRA biologists will conduct a site visit at the proposed trail alignment to review any sensitive habitats within the easement, if present, and assess conditions for potential presence of plant and wildlife species protected under federal, state, and/or local laws and ordinances. Observed special -status species and/or sensitive natural communities within the pathway easement will be recorded and mapped with a full description of location and qualities documented, in addition to documenting the known or potential use of Project work areas by any special -status species. Town staff have indicated that the design will avoid impacts to trees to the greatest extent possible; however, if through design development impacts to trees cannot be avoided, WRA biologists can perform a tree inventory to identify and document trees to be removed and recommend replacement plantings as mitigation. This tree inventory is not included in the Task 4.1 scope but may be incorporated to the BRA field work under a separate agreement. The BRA will include an informal wetland and waters assessment, including informal mapping of potentially jurisdictional aquatic resources. WRA has included this as an alternative to a formal wetland delineation to balance obtaining information critical to completing the CEQA analysis with the Town's budget expectations. While the wetlands assessment would provide data and mapping relevant to CEQA analysis, a full wetland delineation would need to be completed prior to permitting and construction. The BRA will recommend avoidance and minimization measures with the goal to mitigate any CEQA impacts to less than significant. The BRA will be structured to address the questions of the most recent CEQA Checklist for Biological Resources. This task assumes one round of responses to one set of consolidated comments for up to four (4) WRA staff hours. This task does not include protocol -level or otherwise targeted species surveys, such as rare plant surveys, or protocol -level special -status wildlife species surveys. WRA will be able to assist the Town under a separate agreement should such surveys be required. Deliverable: A BRA Report Task 4.2 Aquatic Resources Delineation Report and Map (Optional) A qualified WRA waters/wetland delineator will delineate aquatic resources potentially regulated under the Clean Water Act, California Fish and Game Code, and/or the Porter -Cologne Water Quality Control Act, following the most current federal wetland delineation methodology, including sample points for vegetation and soil sampling, and completion of U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) data sheets. WRA anticipates that the drainage on site is ephemeral and may therefore only be regulated by the Regional Water Quality Control Board (RWQCB) and California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW). However, all potentially regulated aquatic features will be mapped in the field using a GPS receiver with sub -meter accuracy and will be overlaid on an aerial image. The area of the wetland delineation will be limited to the pathway easement. The budget for this task assumes this optional task is authorized prior to the start of BRA field work otherwise additional costs may be incurred due to remobilization of staff for an additional field visit. WRA will prepare a Delineation Report Memorandum following the typical requirements of the USACE San Francisco District. This includes a description of all aquatic features, a proposed jurisdictional determination, and a delineation map. A draft report including maps will be submitted to you for review and approval. Deliverables: Y Aquatic Resources Delineation Report, Aquatic Resources Delineation Map Task S. Other Environmental Factors (Optional) The Project has the potential to create air quality and noise impacts during construction and therefore, WRA has included optional tasks for additional studies to evaluate the extent of these potential impacts. These are shown as optional as the studies may not be required depending on the construction methods selected to build the path. Given the existing trees along the pathway easement, we have included an optional task for a tree 640Proposal for Town of Los Altos Hills I Maple Leaf Court to Middle Fork Lane Pathway - CEQA IS/MND WRA Project #350230 1July 2025 Docusign Envelope ID: 64910369-9FF7-4D3E-AF41-863D559CED1D wra EnvIfill LMConsultants �� Consultants inventory. These studies will support the analysis in responding to the IS questions relating to these topics and provide a stronger backing for the conclusions reached. Task 5.1 Air Quality Technical Study (Baseline Environmental Consulting) Baseline Environmental Consulting (Baseline) will assist WRA in the preparation of an Air Quality Technical Study that will evaluate potential Project impacts related to air quality. Based on preliminary review of the proposed Project, the primary air quality concerns will be related to the net increase in emissions of criteria air pollutants during Project construction. Potential air quality impacts will be assessed in accordance with the Bay Area Air Quality Management District's (BAAQMD) CEQA Air Quality Guidelines. The net emissions of criteria air pollutants during Project construction will be estimated using the linear Project function available in the most current version of the California Emissions Estimator Model (CalEEMod). Baseline will incorporate into CalEEMod the Project -specific construction information such as construction duration, import and export volumes of soil and aggregates, and off-road construction equipment activity. Baseline will provide a template to assist the applicant in the compilation of Project -specific construction information (if available). Operation and maintenance of the Project is not expected to generate substantial criteria air pollutant emissions. An optional Construction Health Risk Assessment can be conducted under a separate scope of work. The Project's estimated net emissions of criteria air pollutants will be compared with the BAAQMD's recommended thresholds of significance. Baseline will prepare mitigation measures, as needed, to reduce potentially significant air quality impacts to less -than -significant levels. The approach to analysis, results, and recommendations will be documented in a technical memorandum. Baseline assumes there will be up to one round of review from the applicant and/or WRA and one virtual meeting or phone call to discuss the results. Deliverable: 0 Air Quality Technical Study Task 5,2 Noise and Vibration Technical Study (Baseline Environmental Consulting) Baseline will evaluate potential Project impacts related to noise and vibration in a technical memorandum. The existing noise levels in the Project area will be discussed based on noise contours obtained from the Los Altos Hills General Plan. No noise monitoring will be conducted to characterize the ambient noise conditions. Potential noise and vibration impacts during Project construction will be evaluated to determine compliance with applicable thresholds. Baseline will prepare mitigation measures, as needed, to reduce any potentially significant noise and vibration impacts to less -than -significant levels. Baseline assumes that operation of the proposed Project would not introduce new noise and vibration sources. The approach to analysis, results, and recommendations will be documented in a technical memorandum. Baseline assumes there will be up to one round of review from the applicant and/or WRA and one virtual meeting or phone call to discuss the results. Deliverable: • Noise and Vibration Technical Study Task 5.3: Regulatory Permitting If a California Fish and Game Code 1602 and Regional Water Quality Control Board Water Discharge Requirements permit is required for construction of a bridge over a drainage, WRA can prepare permit applications. The specific content and extent of effort for permitting will depend on the conditions to be determined by the Biological Study, the Aquatic Resources Delineation, and the specific extent of impacts related to bridge design. For the purpose of this proposal, WRA assumes that no compensatory mitigation will be necessary, that a free -span bridge will be installed, and that no impacts below a potentially present ordinary -high water mark will occur (i.e., no USACE permit will be required regardless of jurisdiction), and that � Proposal for Town of Los Altos Hills I Maple Leaf Court to Middle Fork Lane Pathway - CEQA IS/MND �9,��`L WRA Project #350230 1 July 2025 Docusign Envelope ID: 64910369-9FF7-4D3E-AF41-863D559CED1D I wra lLCovsunroen' a Consu ltcs n'. no special -status species or their habitat will be impacted.

This task assumes WRA will support by reviewing the accompanying staff report and presentation slides ahead of packet publication and virtually attending one meeting each for the Planning Commission and City Council. Task 6.2: Administrative Draft IS/MND WRA will prepare an Administrative Draft IS/MND that will include the finalized Project Description and completed environmental checklist form as outlined in the CEQA Appendix G Guidelines. WRA will utilize existing background documentation provided by the Town to the greatest extent feasible in preparing the IS/MND. The IS will be provided to the Town to be used to incorporate the proposed pathway into the General Plan. WRA will utilize information from the BRA Report, as described above in Task 4, to identify potential impacts to any special -status plant or wildlife species, jurisdictional waters, sensitive natural communities, or other biological resources on-site. WRA has retained Indigenous Group to assist with a Cultural Resources Study (Task 3) and Baseline to assist with optional Noise and Air Quality analyses (Tasks 5.1 and 5.2) to support the IS/MND. WRA will submit the Administrative Draft IS/MND to the Town for review and will revise the IS/MND based on one round of comments from the Town. Deliverable: ! Administrative Draft IS/MND Task 7. Public Draft Initial Study -MND WRA will prepare the Screencheck Draft IS/MND based on one round of Town comments on the Administrative Draft IS/MND. WRA will submit the Screencheck Draft IS/MND to the Town for one final round of review before preparing the Public Review Draft IS/MND. As part of this task, WRA will also draft the Notice of Intent (NOI) and Notice of Completion (NOC) and send them to the Town for review and signature. When the Town has approved the Screencheck Draft IS/MND, WRA will prepare the Public Review Draft IS/MND and the final NOI, NOC, and CEQAnet forms. WRA will file the IS/MND, NOI, and NOC with the State Clearinghouse via CEQAnet and will file the NOI with the Santa Clara County Clerk.

Any previous environmental reports for the Project supplied to Town or the Project owner will be provided to WRA. • Any previous correspondence between Town or the Project owner and government agencies that relates to WRA's proposed work will be provided to WRA. • Any biological survey, assessment, or other reconnaissance is dependent on current conditions, and data obtained may not be accurate or applicable in subsequent years. WRA cannot guarantee schedules or costs for actions taken by regulatory and other third -party entities, which are outside of WRA's control. Preparation of National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) documents is not included in this scope of work. Any NEPA analysis required will be prepared under a separate scope of work and budget. Preparation of any additional permitting documents outside of the optional permitting tasks included in this proposal is not included in this scope of work. Additional permit applications or agency consultation will be covered under a separate scope of work and budget. WRA assumes that the appropriate CEQA document for this Project is an IS/MND. If the Town determines that an Environmental Impact Report (EIR) is necessary, WRA will prepare a separate scope of work and budget for this task. WRA assumes the Town will circulate the Notice of Intent. WRA assumes a maximum of 8 hours for responding to public comments on the CEQA environmental document. Any hours required in excess of the stated amount will be charged as a change order to the Project. The CEQA Project Description will be produced upon finalization and approval of the 30% design. • The Town will clarify which documents should be uploaded to State Clearinghouse: if Section 508 compliance is required for technical data contained within technical studies, WRA will prepare a separate scope of work and budget for this task. • The BRA Report does not include protocol -level surveys for biological resources and will instead involve a reconnaissance level survey. This scope only provides for the preparation of the IS to incorporate the pathway into the General Plan. Any time to attend meetings or prepare documentation relating to updating the General Plan will require a separate scope of work. nWRA osal for own o0LI s A/lt2ss Hills I Maple Leaf Court to Middle Fork Lane Pathway - CEQA IS/MND Docusign Envelope ID: 64910369-9FF7-4D3E-AF41-863D559CED1D ro(:S1�t1_17 wra s1ronmeo±^Consultant; 2.

The City's Parks and Recreation Department prepared a programmatic level 15 -year plan for its entire parks, recreation, and open space system. Results gleaned from the City's robust public involvement process indicated a strong interest in preparing an OSMP that would balance demands for recreation with protecting sensitive biological resources. The city's two open space areas are surrounded by residential and commercial development, include 10 miles of officially recognized multi -use trails, a perennial stream and lake, and multiple areas with very high wildfire hazard ratings. The Project is controversial - one group wants continued multiple recreation uses to continue with minor changes to how sensitive resources are managed, and another group wants the overwhelming emphasis of the OSMP to be on sensitive resource protection, habitat restoration, and limits on recreation use. WRA worked with the Parks and Recreation Department Director, the City Manager, and the City Attorney, to develop a strategy that utilized the City's existing EIR prepared for the recent General Plan update and WRA prepared an addendum to the existing EIR. The PROS Master Plan, OSMP, and EIR Addendum were brought to the City Council and approved in March of 2024. • Liv Niederer City of Son Carlos, San Carlos Parks Master Plan, San Carlos, CA WRA is providing environmental consulting services, as a subconsultant to Gates Studio, to the City of San Carlos in the preparation of a new Parks Master Plan. WRA prepared a CEQA-level biological resources report that evaluated sensitive habitat and the potential presence of special status species across 15 parks and two open spaces. The trails and amenities in the two open spaces and one larger park were also assessed as part of an Existing Conditions Report that included a trail conditions assessment, a summary of visitor use, and recommendations for improving trail conditions, ways to mitigate wildfire and landslide risk, and improve visitor experience. The Parks Master Plan is still under development, but once drafted, WRA will prepare an IS/MND that evaluates the potential impacts of proposed park improvement Projects and future programming and provides mitigation measures to adequately address impacts. Key Personnel • Rob Carnachan, Renata Robles Sonoma County Regional Parks, Carrington Coast Ranch Master Plan, Sonoma County, CA WRA is the prime consultant leading preparation of a Master Plan and CEQA package to guide the development of Carrington Coast Ranch into a Regional Park and Open Space Preserve. The new regional park will provide recreation while minimizing impacts to sensitive biological habitats and species, protecting cultural resources, maintaining views along Highway 1, and providing safe ingress and egress to the property. The Master Plan will include conceptual designs for trail alignments, day use, and overnight facilities as well as a resource management plan to protect the unique habitats and sensitive species. To support the Master Plan, WRA is preparing a camping feasibility study to examine the opportunities and constraints for overnight use. WRA is also updating the BRA through rare plant surveys. In addition, WRA is coordinating and supporting multiple technical studies including cultural resources, traffic, and water/wastewater which will inform the conceptual designs and support the CEQA analysis.

WORK PLAN AND SCHEDULE f w ra LlL Consunmentui ` Consultants The work plan below provides for completion of the IS/MND by December 31, 2025. During the Project kickoff, WRA and Town staff will review this schedule to identify any necessary revisions to the Project approach to achieve the Project aims. We work to, as much as possible, request information at the Project start to ensure a clear path forward in drafting the CEQA documents. The most intensive time for Town Staff will likely be spent on discussions surrounding the Project scope during the kickoff meeting and development of the Project Description and then again during review of the Administrative Draft IS/MND. WRA will likely need to consult with Public Works staff that will be involved in Project implementation and potentially Planning staff to provide background information.
