Kimley-Horn will also utilize, to the extent practical, available reference documents and prior CEQA documents, including the City's General Plan Environmental Impact Report (EIR). For each technical study, this proposal allows for two rounds of staff review, assuming that for all submittal reviews staff comments are consolidated into one comment set, and subsequent comments focus on the adequacy of addressing prior comments and do not raise new issues. Each round of City staff review would be two weeks in length.

This fieldwork will be completed under the supervision of a cultural resource professional that meets the United States Secretary of the Interior's Professional Qualifications Standards for Architectural History, and for Archaeology. The goal of this task will be to identify any cultural resources within the development portion of the project site, and to produce or update the necessary site records. For the purposes of this proposal, a maximum of four minor archaeological resources are anticipated. Sub -Task 3 - Report A cultural resources report will be produced consistent with CEQA requirements, in a format acceptable to the City.

The resulting report will be appended to the cultural resources report. Sub -Task S — Native American Heritage Commission Sacred Lands File Search During this task BCR Consulting will contact the Native American Heritage Commission (NAHC) to request a Sacred Lands File (SLF) Search.
