We will submit the administrative draft Initial Study for internal review by the City, then attend a meeting to go over the content and conclusions in the draft IS. The City will provide a coordinated set of comments/edits to us for incorporation into a revised document, called the Screencheck IS. Following final review and comment on the Screencheck IS by the City, we will finalize the IS/ND, prepare the Notice of Completion cover sheet, and provide the required number of copies of the document to the City. We assume the City will develop and maintain the mailing list for the IS/ND, and perform the distribution of the document, including the copies to be sent to the State Clearinghouse. We will also provide the City with a camera-ready copy of the document, for future copying if necessary. Meetings: Kick-off meeting; one meeting to discuss administrative draft IS. Deliverables: Draft project description; 10 copies of administrative draft IS; 2 copies of Screencheck IS; Notice of Completion form; 75 copies of IS~ND for distribution by the City. Task 2: Prepare Response to Comments and Notice of Determination Following the 30-day public review period for the IS/ND, the City will collect any comment letters received and forward them to CH2M HILL for review. We will meet with City staff to discuss the comments and formulate appropriate responses, if necessary. Although responses to comments on an IS/ND are not formally required under CEQA, we recommend that responses be prepared, at a minimum, to public agency comment letters that may be received. Our scope assumes that a minimal number of comment letters (up to 5), with a low level of complexity, will require response. We will prepare draft responses for the City's review, if necessary. We will also prepare a draft Mitigation and Monitoring Plan (MMP, in matrix format) to accompany the final IS/ND. Following the City's review of the draft, we will incorporate changes and prepare the final MMP. The required number of copies of the IS/ND, responses to comments, and MMP will be provided to the City for use as attachments to its staff report for the project. It is our understanding that the City will host a community outreach meeting for the project in mid~February, 2003, during the time of the 30-day public review period for the IS/ND. Our scope assumes attendance by the CH2M HILL project manager, biologist, and traffic subconsultant at this meeting, as well as at one City Planning Commission hearing. Following City adoption of the IS/ND, we will prepare the Notice of Determination form and provide it to the City for posting with the San Mateo Cotmty Clerk and State Clearinghouse. This notice must be filed withIn 5 calendar days of the City's action on the project. Meetings: One meeting with City to discuss comment letters; one community outreach meeting, one Planning Commission hearing. Deliverables: Draft and final response to comment documents; draft and finaI MMP; Notice of Determination form. PRELIMINARY SCHEDULE Following is a preliminary schedule for the IS/ND process, assuming a notice to proceed date of December 17, 2002.
