• 4. ESA Team Qualifications TABLE 4 -2: SUMMARY OF RELEVANT ESA TEAM EXPERIENCE (Continued) • RelevantHighlights Project KEMA (cont.) _. ... -. ✓ Energy Management City of Santa Ana Strategic Electric Plan Plan KEMA was hired by the City of Santa Ana to develop a Strategic Electric Plan for energy cost control in ▪ Energy audits the City. As part of this contract, KEMA studied all 795 city electric accounts, conducted a right/best analysis for each account, and did energy audits of city libraries, police and fire stations, city parks, outdoor stadiums, parking structures, senior centers, and the City Hall. KEMA also conducted an in- depth analysis of energy uses for city street lighting, traffic control, and the city's municipal water department. Taken together, KEMA's recommendations for energy conservation measures; improvements to the way in which city accounts were structured, billed, and paid; and procurement ! strategies are expected to save the city over $1 million annually. Fehr & Peers ✓ Climate Action Plan City of Irvine Climate Action Plan ✓ Sophisticated VMT j Fehr & Peers is a member of a multi - disciplinary team that is preparing a Climate Action Plan for the City estimates of Irvine. The purpose of the Climate Action Plan is to identify reductions in Greenhouse Gas Emissions (GHG's) in accordance with the requirements set out under Califomia's AB 32. This Climate Action Plan ✓ Travel demand modeling differs from climate plans developed for other cities in several regards: the Plan makes use of the best Reduction strategies for , available quantitative data in all aspects of the plan including transpodation. For example, the inventory transportation GHG of existing GHG emissions is based on outputs provided by the City's travel demand model; the Plan emissions includes the development of detailed emission reduction strategies which can be quantified to provide the needed level of GHG reductions. Plans developed in other jurisdictions have only provided generalized strategies which are qualitative in nature; the transportation analysis segregates the VMT associated with the City into several travel markets including internal trips, trips traveling to /from the City, and trips traveling through the City . ' ✓ Urban sustainability City of Tracy Sustainability Plan planning Fehr & Peers prepared transportation inputs for the City's greenhouse gas inventory as part of its v Transportation as key Sustainability Plan development. The inputs, derived from the City of Tracy Travel Demand Model, GHG emissions issue included citywide vehicle -miles traveled (assessing internal, internal -external, and external trips separately), and average annual daily traffic volumes on the citys roadways. Fehr & Peers also obtained data on vehicle mix and fuel type for use in the green house gas calculations. ✓ Transportation and land Caltrans Smart Mobility Handbook use planning Fehr & Peers was part of a team that developed a Smart Mobility Handbook to be used by Caltrans and ✓ Developed measures for partner agencies in California. The purpose of the handbook is to redefine evaluation criteria and VMT and GHG reduction j performance standards when planning and evaluating transportation projects and integrated land use and transportation scenarios. Fehr & Peers developed recommended performance measures for VMT and GHG reduction, energy reduction, location efficiency, multi -modal service levels, network 1 management and speed suitability, equity and economic productivity. ✓ Local Experience City of Pleasanton On -Call Transporation Services ✓ City of Pleasanton I Fehr & Peers is currently serving as an on -call transportation planning /engineering consultant for the City Travel Demand Model I of Pleasanton. Recent projects completed include: Gateway Center Transportation Impact Study; v VMT analysis and traffic Interstate 580 /Foothill Boulevard Interchange Assessment; and the Citywide Cut- through Study. impact studies 1 For the Gateway Center Transportation Impact Study, Fehr & Peers prepared a transportation impact study that evaluated the potential off-site transportation impacts of the proposed project, which would be located south of Bernal Avenue and west of Valley Avenue. The City of Pleasanton travel demand model was used to develop future traffic forecasts and estimate project trip distribution throughout the City and region. For the Interstate 580 /Foothill Boulevard Interchange Assessment, Fehr & Peers is currently working with City staff to evaluate the approved interchange configuration, in addition to several alternatives to gain concurrence frorn Caltrans that no further project approval or environmental review is necessary to initiate the final design and construction of this project in Pleasanton. For the Citywide Cut- through Study, Fehr & Peers is currently overseeing a data collection effort to quantify the amount of cut - through traffic (traffic that goes through the city without stopping) on several key routes through the City of Pleasanton. The collected data will be used to better validate the citywide travel demand model, which is currently being updated, and will also be helpful in more accurately assessing the City's responsibilities for the VMT that occurs within its boundaries. • 4-20 City of Pleasanton Climate Action Plan •
