Adams Acting Director _ ` 'Arnold Schwarzenegger Secretary for Governor Environmental Protection 5796 Corporate Avenue Cypress, California 90630 Ascon Landfill Site 21641 Magnolia Street Huntington Beach, California Field work activities for the approved Interim Removal Measure (IRM) are scheduled to begin the week of July 5, 2010 and may continue through the first quarter of 2011. Haul truck traffic is anticipated to initiate in mid July and last for approximately three to four months. Initial activities Large equipment —such as excavators —will be brought to the site during mobilization, with some additional equipment anticipated to arrive at the site throughout the field work. Contractors will also place a construction trailer on -site. Residents may notice workers and agency staff prior to and during the IRM fieldwork. Field activities Field activities will include removal and disposal of the tarry materials from two interior lagoons —referred to as Lagoons 1 and 2—in the southwest interior of the Ascon Landfill site. The material was deposited at the site during the landfill's operation. Haul Traffic The daily maximum number of haul trucks visiting the site is 70 trucks per day, entering the site at the Hamilton Street Gate and exiting the site toward Pacific Coast Highway at the southeast Magnolia Avenue Gate. Work is anticipated to occur Mondays through Saturdays, 6:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m., with workers arriving at 6 a.m. for daily safety briefings. Workers will park onsite and be required to minimize noise as they arrive. Haul truck trips will be limited to entering and leaving the site between 7:00 a.m. and 5100 p.m. and trucks will not be allowed to line up or park on nearby city streets. Waste hauling activities will be limited to Mondays through Fridays, with the majority of trucks departing the site prior to 1:30 p.m. The majority of haul truck traffic is anticipated to occur in the first 3 to 4 months. It is possible that additional haul trucks may be needed in the first quarter of 2011. Efforts will be taken to minimize noise and disruptions to traffic. No street closures are planned at this time. Should street closures be required, this will be coordinated with the City of Huntington Beach. Mitigation Measures Trucks will be lined, loaded, covered, cleaned and visually inspected before leaving the site. The exit area will be staffed with a flagman during truck hauling to ensure traffic safety. It is expected there may be periodic odor, although this is not a health risk. Air quality, dust and odor will be closely monitored during the work. Dust and odor suppressants will be applied. Air quality technicians with hand-held monitors will take readings directly in the work areas and. air monitoring stations are placed around the perimeter of the site. The IRM project is implemented in compliance with mitigation measures and conditions imposed by DTSC, the Regional Water Quality Control Board, the South Coast Air Quality Management District and the City of Huntington Beach.

This memo identifies the increase cost associated with increasing the Traffic Index (TI) from 8.0 to 8.5 in the southbound lanes on Magnolia Street between the ASCON driveway and PCH. The construction cost differential of $32,342.50 is due to an increase of 219 CY of excavation and an increase of 425 tons of Asphalt Concrete (AC) to accomplish this task. The cost would have been $188,700.00 if the repairs were for a TI of 8.0 for the referenced lanes. The cost of the repairs for a TI of 8.5 for same lanes was approximately $220,848.00. The ASCON strengthening consisted of increasing the dig out depth an additional 1.4 inches between driveway and Channel and 1.2 inches deeper from the Channel to PCH. Background The project was designed with a Traffic Index (TI) of 8.0 for all travel lanes. Upon the review by City Staff, it was determined that the City spend additional money in construction to strengthen the roadway in the area of the southbound lanes, from the ASCON driveway to PCH. Therefore, the TI was increased from 8.0 to 8.5 to account for the fully loaded southbound trucks originating from ASCON. Using actual bid pricing and as -built information, the cost of the comparative repair sections were calculated as follows: Stretch Dig out area (SF) Dig out Depth (ft) Cubic Feet Estimated Construction T.I. =8.0 Without (CF)/27=Cubic Yards Cost ($) ASCON (CY) Sta. 39+50 to Channel 50,152 SF 0.67' (8") 33,602CF/27=1,245 $32.50/CY x 1,245= (Excavation) CY $40,447.00 Channel to PCH 325' x 12' =3,900 SF 0.50' (6") 1,950 CF/27=72 CY $32.50/CY x 72= (Excavation) $2,347.00 Excavation Sub -Total 1,317 CY $42,794.00 Sta. 39+50 to Channel 50,152 SF 0.67' (8") 33,602 CF * 144/2000 $57.00/Ton x (Base Course Asphalt =2,420 Tons 2,420=$137,903.00 Concrete) Channel to PCH (Base 3,900 SF 0.50' (6") 1,950 CF * 144/2000 $57.00/Ton x Course Asphalt =141 Tons 141=$8,003.00 Concrete) Base Course Sub -Total 2,561 Tons $145,906-00 Total 54,052 $188,700.00 Stretch Dig out area (SF) Dig out Depth (ft) CF/27=CY Cost ($) T.I. =8.5 For ASCON Sta. 39+50 to Channel 50,152 SF 0.78' (9.4") 39,120 CF/27=1,449 $32.50/CY x 1,449= (Excavation) CY $47,092.50 Channel to PCH 325' x 12' =3,900 SF 0.60' (7.2") 2,340 CF/27=87CY $32.50/CY x 87= (Excavation) $2,827.50 Excavation Sub -Total 1,536 CY $49,920.00 Sta. 39+50 to Channel 50,152 SF 0.78' (9.4") 39,120 CF * 144/2000 $57.00/Ton x (Base Course Asphalt =2,817 Tons 2,817=$160,569.00 Concrete) Channel to PCH (Base 3,900 SF 0.60' (7.2") 2,340CF * 144/2000 $57.00/Ton x Course Asphalt =169 Tons 169=$9,633.00 Concrete) Base Course Sub -Total 2,986 Tons $170,202.00 Total $220,122.00 * CC-1341 Bid Unit Prices were $32.50/CY of Excavation & Disposal and $57.00/Tons for Asphalt Concrete.
