Administrative Conditions
1. Payment Methods
a. The Debt Collection Improvement Act of 1996 requires that Federal payments be made by electronic
funds transfer. In order to comply with the Act, a recipient must receive payments via one of two
electronic methods available to them:
Automated Standard Application for Payments (ASAP)
The ASAP system is the preferred method of payment for EPA grantees. ASAP enrollment is highly
encouraged for organizations that have multiple grants/cooperative agreements and for those with a
frequent need to request funds. If your organization uses multiple bank accounts for EPA
grants/cooperative agreements, you must enroll in ASAP. If you are interested in receiving funds
electronically via ASAP, please complete the ASAP Initiate Enrollment form located at
http://www.epa.gov/ocfo/finservices/forms.htm and email it to LVFC-grants@epa.gov or fax it to LVFC at
702-798-2423
Under this payment mechanism, the Recipient initiates, via ASAP, an electronic payment request which is
approved or rejected based on the amount of available funds authorized by EPA in the Recipient’s
account. Approved funds are credited to the recipient organization at the financial institution identified on
the recipient’s ASAP enrollment application. Additional information concerning ASAP and enrollment can
be obtained by contacting the EPA Las Vegas Finance Center, at (702) 798-2485, or by visiting
www.fms .treas.gov/asap.
Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT)
Under this payment mechanism, the EPA Las Vegas Finance Center will obtain your organization's
banking information from your System for Award Management (SAM) registration. Upon completion of
required Regional training, a Las Vegas Finance Center Representative will send you an email message
with your EFT Control Number and payment information. Additional information concerning EFT can be
obtained by contacting the EPA Las Vegas Finance Center at (702) 798-2485, or by visiting
http://www.epa.gov/ocfo/finservices/payinfo.htm
NOTE: If your banking information is not correct or changes at any time prior to the end of your
agreement, please update your SAM registration and notify the EPA Las Vegas Finance Center as soon
as possible so the new banking information can be retrieved. This is vital to ensure proper and timely
deposit of funds.
b. In accepting this assistance agreement, the recipient agrees to draw cash only as needed for its
disbursement. Failure on the part of the recipient to comply with this condition may cause the undisbursed
portions of the assistance agreement to be revoked and financing method changed to a reimbursable
basis.
2. Federal Financial Report (FFR)
Recipients shall submit final Federal Financial Reports (FFR), Standard Form 425 (SF-425), to EPA no
later than 90 calendar days after the end of the project period. The form is available on the internet at
http://www.epa.gov/ocfo/finservices/forms.htm. All FFRs must be submitted to the Las Vegas Finance
Center: US EPA, LVFC, 4220 S. Maryland Pkwy Bldg C, Rm 503, Las Vegas, NV 89119, or by FAX to:
702-798-2423.
The LVFC will make adjustments, as necessary, to obligated funds after reviewing and accepting a final
Federal Financial Report. Recipients will be notified and instructed by EPA if they must complete any
additional forms for the closeout of the assistance agreement.
EPA may take enforcement actions in accordance with 40 CFR 30.62 and 40 CFR 31.43 if the recipient
does not comply with this term and condition.

In accordance with OMB Circular A-133, which implements the Single Audit Act, the recipient hereby
agrees to obtain a single audit from an independent auditor, if it expends $500,000 or more in total
Federal funds in any fiscal year. Within nine months after the end of a recipient’s fiscal year or 30 days
after receiving the report from the auditor, the recipient shall submit the SF-SAC and a Single Audit Report

The chief executive officer of this recipient agency shall ensure that no grant funds awarded under this
assistance agreement are used to engage in lobbying of the Federal Government or in litigation against

A recipient must negotiate with the appropriate EPA award official, or his/her designee, fair share
objectives for MBE and WBE (MBE/WBE) participation in procurement under the financial assistance
agreements.
Accepting the Fair Share Objectives/Goals of Another Recipient
The dollar amount of this assistance agreement is over $250,000; or the total dollar amount of all of the
recipient’s non-TAG assistance agreements from EPA in the current fiscal year is over $250,000. The
recipient accepts the applicable MBE/WBE fair share objectives/goals negotiated with EPA by the Oregon

Department of Environmental Quality.
Negotiating Fair Share Objectives/Goals, 40 CFR, Section 33.404
The recipient has the option to negotiate its own MBE/WBE fair share objectives/goals. If the recipient
wishes to negotiate its own MBE/WBE fair share objectives/goals, the recipient agrees to submit proposed
MBE/WBE objectives/goals based on an availability analysis, or disparity study, of qualified MBEs and
WBEs in their relevant geographic buying market for construction, services, supplies and equipment.
The submission of proposed fair share goals with the supporting analysis or disparity study means that the
recipient is not accepting the fair share objectives/goals of another recipient. The recipient agrees to
submit proposed fair share objectives/goals, together with the supporting availability analysis or disparity
study, to the Regional MBE/WBE Coordinator within 120 days of its acceptance of the financial assistance
award. EPA will respond to the proposed fair share objective/goals within 30 days of receiving the

agreement, and to ensure that sub-recipients, loan recipients, and prime contractors also comply. Records
documenting compliance with the six good faith efforts shall be retained:
(a) Ensure DBEs are made aware of contracting opportunities to the fullest extent practicable through
outreach and recruitment activities. For Indian Tribal, State and Local and Government recipients, this will
include placing DBEs on solicitation lists and soliciting them whenever they are potential sources.
(b) Make information on forthcoming opportunities available to DBEs and arrange time frames for
contracts and establish delivery schedules, where the requirements permit, in a way that encourages and
facilitates participation by DBEs in the competitive process. This includes, whenever possible, posting
solicitations for bids or proposals for a minimum of 30 calendar days before the bid or proposal closing
date.
(c) Consider in the contracting process whether firms competing for large contracts could subcontract with
DBEs. For Indian Tribal, State and local Government recipients, this will include dividing total
Page 12 of 59 - EXHIBIT 7 TO DESCHUTES COUNTY DOCUMENT NO. 2013-607
requirements when economically feasible into smaller tasks or quantities to permit maximum participation
by DBEs in the competitive process.
(d) Encourage contracting with a consortium of DBEs when a contract is too large for one of these firms to
handle individually.
(e) Use the services and assistance of the SBA and the Minority Business Development Agency of the
Department of Commerce.

Programmatic Conditions
Region 10 - FY13 Assessment Terms and Conditions
Please note that these Terms and Conditions (T&Cs) apply to Brownfields Assessment Grants awarded
under CERCLA § 104(k).
I. GENERAL FEDERAL REQUIREMENTS
NOTE: For the purposes of these Terms and Conditions the term “assessment” includes, eligible
activities under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act
(CERCLA) § 104(k)(2)(A)(i) such as activities involving the inventory, characterization, assessment,
and planning relating to brownfield sites as described in the EPA approved work plan.
A. Federal Policy and Guidance
1. a. Cooperative Agreement Recipients: By awarding this cooperative agreement, EPA has
approved the proposal for the Cooperative Agreement Recipient (CAR) submitted in the Fiscal
Year 2013 competition for Brownfields assessment cooperative agreements. The CAR may not
expend (“draw down”) funds to carry out this agreement until EPA’s award official approves the
work plan.
b. In implementing this agreement, the CAR shall ensure that work done with cooperative
agreement funds complies with the requirements of the Comprehensive Environmental
Response, Compensation, and Liability Act (CERCLA) § 104(k). The CAR shall also ensure that
assessment activities supported with cooperative agreement funding comply with all applicable
Federal and State laws and regulations.
c. The recipient must comply with Federal cross-cutting requirements. These requirements
include but are not limited to, MBE/WBE requirements found at 40 CFR Part 33; OSHA Worker
Health & Safety Standard 29 CFR 1910.120; the Uniform Relocation Act; National Historic
Preservation Act; Endangered Species Act; and Permits required by Section 404 of the Clean
Water Act; Executive Order 11246, Equal Employment Opportunity, and implementing regulations
at 41 CFR 60-4; Contract Work Hours and Safety Standards Act, as amended (40 USC §
327-333) the Anti Kickback Act (40 USC § 276c) and Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973
as implemented by Executive Orders 11914 and 11250.
d. The CAR must comply with Davis-Bacon Act prevailing wage requirements and associated
U.S. Department of Labor (DOL) regulations for all construction, alteration and repair contracts
and subcontracts awarded with funds provided under this agreement. Activities conducted under
assessment grants generally do not involve construction, alteration and repair within the meaning
of the Davis-Bacon Act. The recipient must contact EPA's Project Officer if there are unique
circumstances (e.g. removal of an underground storage tank or another structure and restoration
of the site) which indicate that the Davis-Bacon Act applies to an activity the CAR intends to carry
out with funds provided under this agreement. The Agency will provide guidance on Davis-Bacon
Act compliance if necessary.
B. Eligible Brownfields Site Determinations
1.a. The CAR must provide information to EPA about site-specific work prior to incurring any costs
under this cooperative agreement for sites that have not already been pre-approved in the
CAR’s work plan by the EPA. The information that must be provided includes whether or not the site
meets the definition of a brownfield site as defined in § 101(39) of CERCLA, whether the CAR is the
potentially responsible party under CERCLA 107 and/or has defenses to liability.
b. If the site is excluded from the general definition of a brownfield, but is eligible for a
property-specific funding determination, then the CAR may request a property-specific
Page 14 of 59 - EXHIBIT 7 TO DESCHUTES COUNTY DOCUMENT NO. 2013-607
funding determination. In their request, the CAR must provide information sufficient for
EPA to make a property-specific funding determination on how financial assistance will
protect human health and the environment, and either promote economic development
or enable the creation of, preservation of, or addition to parks, greenways, undeveloped
property, other recreational property, or other property used for nonprofit purposes. The
CAR must not incur costs for assessing sites requiring a property-specific funding
determination by EPA until the EPA Project Officer has advised the CAR that the
Agency has determined that the property is eligible.
2.a. For any petroleum contaminated brownfield site that is not included in the CAR’s EPA approved
work plan, the CAR shall provide sufficient documentation to the EPA prior to incurring
costs under this cooperative agreement which includes (see the latest version of EPA’s Proposal
Guidelines for Brownfields Assessment Grants dated September 2011 for discussion of this element)
documenting that:
(1) a State has determined that the petroleum site is of relatively low risk, as
compared to other petroleum-only sites in the State,
(2) the State determines there is “no viable responsible party” for the site;
(3) the State determines that the person assessing or investigating the site is a
person who is not potentially liable for cleaning up the site; and
(4) the site is not subject to any order issued under section 9003(h) of the Solid Waste
Disposal Act.
This documentation must be prepared by the CAR or the State following contact and discussion
with the appropriate petroleum program official.
b. Documentation must include (1) the identity of the State program official
contacted, (2) the State official’s telephone number, (3) the date of the contact,
and (4) a summary of the discussion relating to the state’s determination that
the site is of relatively low risk, that there is no viable responsible party and that
the person assessing or investigating the site is not potentially liable for cleaning
up the site. Other documentation provided by a State to the recipient relevant to
any of the determinations by the State must also be provided to the EPA Project
Officer.
c. If the State chooses not to make the determinations described in 2.a. above, the
CAR must contact the EPA Project Officer and provide the information
necessary for EPA to make the requisite determinations.
d. EPA will make all determinations on the eligibility of petroleum-contaminated brownfields
sites located on tribal lands (i.e., reservation lands or lands otherwise in Indian country, as
defined at 18 U.S.C. 1151). Before incurring costs for these sites, the CAR must contact
the EPA Project Officer and provide the information necessary for EPA to make the
determinations described in 2.a. above.
II. GENERAL COOPERATIVE AGREEMENT
ADMINISTRATIVE REQUIREMENTS
A. Term of the Agreement
1.The term of this agreement is three years from the date of award, unless otherwise extended by
EPA at the CAR’s request.
2. If after 18 months from the date of award, EPA determines that the CAR has not made sufficient
progress in implementing its cooperative agreement, the recipient must implement a corrective
action plan approved by the EPA PO or EPA may terminate this agreement for material
non-compliance with its terms. For purposes of assessment grants, the recipient demonstrates
“sufficient progress” when 35% of funds have been drawn down and obligated to eligible activities;
for assessment coalition grants “sufficient progress” is demonstrated when a solicitation for
services has been released, sites are prioritized or an inventory has been initiated if necessary,
community involvement activities have been initiated and a Memorandum of Agreement (for
Assessment Coalitions) is in place.
Page 15 of 59 - EXHIBIT 7 TO DESCHUTES COUNTY DOCUMENT NO. 2013-607
3. Assessment funding for an eligible brownfield site may not exceed $200,000 unless a waiver has
been granted by EPA. Following the granting of a waiver, funding is not to exceed $350,000 at
the site.
B. Substantial Involvement
1.The EPA may be substantially involved in overseeing and monitoring this cooperative agreement.
a. Substantial involvement by EPA generally includes administrative activities such
as monitoring, reviewing project phases, and approving substantive terms
included in professional services contracts.
b. Substantial EPA involvement also includes brownfields property-specific funding
determinations described in I.B. under Eligible Brownfields Site Determinations
above. If the CAR awards a subgrant for site assessment, the CAR must obtain
technical assistance from EPA on which sites qualify as a brownfield site and
determine whether the statutory prohibition found in section 104(k)(4)(B)(i)(IV)
of CERCLA applies. This prohibition precludes the subgrantee from using EPA
funds to assess a site for which the subgrantee is potentially liable under § 107
of CERCLA. (See Section II.C.3 for more information on subgrants.)
c. Substantial EPA involvement may include reviewing financial and environmental
status reports; and monitoring all reporting, record-keeping, and other program
requirements.
d. EPA may waive any of the provisions in term and condition II.B.1., with the
exception of property-specific funding determinations. EPA will provide waivers
in writing.
2.Effect of EPA’s substantial involvement includes:
a. EPA’s review of any project phase, document, or cost incurred under this
cooperative agreement, will not have any effect upon CERCLA § 128 Eligible
Response Site determinations or rights, authorities, and actions under CERCLA
or any Federal statute.
b. The CAR remains responsible for ensuring that all assessments are protective
of human health and the environment and comply with all applicable Federal
and State laws.
c. The CAR and its subgrantees remain responsible for incurring costs that are
allowable under the applicable OMB Circulars.
C. Cooperative Agreement Recipient Roles and Responsibilities
1.The CAR must acquire the services of a qualified environmental professional(s) to coordinate,
direct, and oversee the brownfields assessment activities at a particular site, if they
do not have such a professional on staff.
2.The CAR is responsible for ensuring that contractors and subgrant recipients comply with the
terms of their agreements with the CAR, and that agreements between the CAR and subgrant
recipients and contractors comply with the terms and conditions of this agreement.
3.Subgrants are defined at 40 CFR 31.36. The CAR may not subgrant to for-profit organizations.
The CAR must obtain commercial services and products necessary to carry out this
agreement under competitive procurement procedures as described in 40 CFR 31.36.
In addition, EPA policy encourages awarding subgrants competitively and the CAR must consider
awarding subgrants through competition.
4.The CAR is responsible for assuring that EPA’s Brownfields Assessment Grant funding received
under this grant, or in combination with any other previously awarded Brownfields Assessment grant
does not exceed the $200,000 assessment grant funding limitation for an individual brownfield site.
Page 16 of 59 - EXHIBIT 7 TO DESCHUTES COUNTY DOCUMENT NO. 2013-607
Waiver of this funding limit for a brownfields site must be approved by EPA prior to the expenditure of
funding exceeding $200,000. In no case may EPA funding exceed $350,000 on a site
receiving a waiver.
5. CARs expending funding from a community-wide assessment grant on a particular site must
include such funding amount in any total funding expended on the site.
D. Quarterly Progress Reports
1. The CAR must submit progress reports on a quarterly basis to the EPA Project Officer. Quarterly
progress reports must include:
a. Summary of approved activities performed during the reporting quarter, summary of the
performance outputs/outcomes achieved during the reporting quarter, a description of
problems encountered during the reporting quarter that may affect the project schedule
and a discussion of meeting the performance outputs/outcomes.

c. A list of the properties where assessment activities were performed and/or completed
during the reporting quarter.
d. A budget recap summary table with the following information: current approved project
budget; costs incurred during the reporting quarter; costs incurred to date (cumulative
expenditures); and total remaining funds.
e. Recipient quarterly reports must clearly identify which activities performed during the
reporting period were undertaken with EPA funds, and must relate EPA-funded activities
to the objectives and milestones agreed upon in the work plan including a list of sites
where assessment activities were completed . To the extent consistent with the EPA
approved work plan for this agreement, activities undertaken with EPA funds to be
included in quarterly performance and financial reporting may include:

E. Property Profile Submission
1. The CAR must report on interim progress (i.e., assessment started) and any final
accomplishments (i.e., assessment completed, cleanup required, contaminants, Institution
Controls, Engineering Controls) by completing and submitting relevant portions of the Property
Profile Form using the Brownfields Program on-line reporting system, known as Assessment,
Cleanup and Redevelopment Exchange System (ACRES). The CAR must enter the data in
ACRES as soon as the interim action or final accomplishment has occurred, or within 30 days
after the end of each reporting quarter. EPA will provide the CAR with training prior to obtaining
access to ACRES. The training is required to obtain access to ACRES. The CAR must utilize
the ACRES system unless approval is obtained from the regional Project Officer to utilize the
Property Profile Form.
F. Final Report
1. The CAR must submit a final report at the end of the period of performance in order to finalize
the closeout of the grant. This final report must capture the site names, what work was done at
each site and how much was spent at each site. It should also provide information that
documents the outreach efforts done by the CAR and other activities that help explain where the
funding was utilized. The final report is due within 90 days of the end of the project period. Refer
to section II.D. quarterly reporting for additional types of information to include.

Deschutes County, June 26, 2013
1. INTRODUCTION
1.1 Project Description, Goals and Objectives
During Fiscal Year 2013, the United States Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA)
selected Deschutes County ("County") for grant funding in the amount of $400,000
($200,000 for Hazardous Substances and $200,000 for Petroleum Substances) under the
Small Business Liability Relief and Brownfields Revitalization Act, for the assessment of
brownfields sites in the community. The County is currently working on entering into a
Cooperative Agreement (CA) with the USEP A to receive the grant funding.
The County and the partnering cities of Bend and Redmond have been significantly
impacted by brownfields. Many are located adjacent to residential areas and/or sensitive
receptors. Brownfields have negatively impacted the health of residents and constrained
the community's efforts to recover from the worst economic downturn since the 1930s.
The primary desired goals and objectives of the project include building a sustainable
brownfields program by developing the "organizational infrastructure" within the County
and partnering cities to permanently enhance the County's processes for assessing,
remediating and catalyzing the redevelopment and reuse of brownfield sites. Based on the
exceptionally high levels of economic distress, in particular unemployment, other
objectives will be to spur private investment and the creation of jobs through additional
development projects on brownfield sites. EPA funding will be used to assess sites
throughout the County, including the partnering cities of Bend, Redmond and Sisters, to
support economic development/redevelopment initiatives being undertaken by local units
of government.
A brief description of the scope of work proposed for each of the four (4) main tasks for
the brownfields project is presented below. Additional details (including those pertaining
to scope, budget and schedule) are provided throughout the remainder of this work plan.
Task 1: Project Management and Reporting -The County will be responsible for the
management of the assessment grants and will be responsible for all USEP A reporting
requirements.
Task 2: Community Outreach and Public Involvement -Community outreach and public
involvement activities will include the following: convening a Brownfield Advisory
Committee (BAC), coordinating and conducting meetings with stakeholders and the
general public; seeking, discussing and implementing meaningful public input into the
grant processes; preparing and publishing public notices; preparing meeting materials and
presentations; preparing and distributing brochures and other public information
materials.
Task 3: Site Inventory, Prioritization and Assessment
o Inventory and Prioritization -The County proposes to use the assessment grant
funding to build an initial inventory of brownfields sites in Bend, Redmond and
rural Deschutes County, and work with various stakeholder groups to prioritize
the sites for assessment and/or cleanup/redevelopment planning. Known sites
-2-Page 25 of 59 - EXHIBIT 7 TO DESCHUTES COUNTY DOCUMENT NO. 2013-607
Deschutes County, June 26, 2013
include:
1. Bend Demolition Landfill. This 75-acre site is located in an area which has
experienced significant growth over the past two decades, and is now
surrounded by residential and commercial development. Originally an
abandoned surface mine, from 1972 to 1996 the site was used as a landfill
for construction and demolition debris, as well as industrial waste (primarily
sawdust from area sawmills). The site has documented surface instability in
many areas where "hot spots" of burning demolition debris, sawdust, and
methane gas have smoldered underground, weakening the earthen cap. The
resulting sink-holes have led to severe safety-related incidents on the
property.
n. Redmond Shooting Range Property. This 220-acre site contains a landfill
and scattered small dump sites, informal off-road vehicle recreational areas
and shooting ranges. It is identified as a brownfield on USEPA's
Assessment, Cleanup and Redevelopment Exchange System (ACRES)
system. As most of the contaminants at the shooting ranges are at or near the
ground surface, there is significant potential for exposure to contaminants at
the site, which borders the most densely populated residential
neighborhoods in Redmond, including the City's highest percentages of
minority and low income residents.
111. Auto-Specific Transitional Properties Resulting From US 97 Relocation.
Efforts to relocate US Highway 97 to bypass downtown Redmond and
create a community center have resulted in many auto-specific transitional
properties no longer compatible with the city center. Revitalization efforts
have been hindered by these brownfield sites which must be inventoried and
assessed before redevelopment efforts can proceed. The Oregon Department
of Environmental Quality (DEQ) Environmental Cleanup Site Information
(ECSI) Database contains examples of at least ten such sites, including gas
stations, parts and repair facilities, bulk plants and an auto salvage yard.
o Phase I Environmental Site Assessments (ESAs)-The County will contract with
an environmental consulting firm (Consultant) to complete Phase I ESAs up to an
estimated five (5) high priority hazardous substance and up to an estimated five
(5) high priority petroleum substance brownfield sites.
o Phase II ESAs -The Consultant will perform Phase II ESA and/or supplemental
assessment activities on select parcels for which Phase I ESAs are completed, and
for which the need for further assessment is identified and desired. This task sets
aside resources to conduct Phase II ESAs on up to three (3) high priority
hazardous substance and three (3) high priority petroleum products brownfields
sites, and supplemental site investigation activities on up to two sites [including
one (1) hazardous substances and one (1) petroleum products brownfields sites.
-3-Page 26 of 59 - EXHIBIT 7 TO DESCHUTES COUNTY DOCUMENT NO. 2013-607
Deschutes County, June 26, 2013
Task 4: Cleanup/Redevelopment Planning
o Site-Specific Remedial Action/Cleanup Planning -The Consultant will conduct
cleanup and redevelopment planning as required for brownfields where
redevelopment is imminent and such activities will assist the developer. Planning
may take the form of identifying soil and groundwater contamination, conceptual
site models, site-specific remedial action objectives, identifying state and federal
cleanup regulatory requirements, and analysis of brownfield cleanup alternatives
(ABCA); assessment of brownfields redevelopment alternatives; and evaluation
of institutional and engineering controls. This task sets aside resources to conduct
remedial planning activities on up to two (2) hazardous substances and up to two
(2) petroleum products brownfields sites.
o Area-Wide Planning (AWP) -The County will work with the Consultant to
perform brownfields A WP for up to two brownfields impacted areas in the
County. The A WP may include performing a variety of activities focused on
identifying potential future uses for the brownfields-impacted area and developing
strategies to facilitate the reuse of existing infrastructure as well as identifying
potential infrastructure investments needed to accommodate alternative future
uses. Tasks anticipated to be completed as part of A WP include:
•!• Evaluating existing environmental conditions, local market potential, and
needed infrastructure improvements;

Safety Plans (HASPs) for sites prioritized for Phase II ESAs.
o Perform Phase II ESA and/or supplemental assessment activities on select parcels
for which Phase I ESAs are completed, and for which the need for further
assessment is identified. This task sets aside resources to conduct Phase II ESAs
on up to three (3) high priority hazardous substance and three (3) high priority
petroleum substance brownfields sites, and supplemental site investigation
activities on up to two [one (1) hazardous substances and one (1) petroleum
substance brownfields sites].
Task 4: Cleanup Planning-
o Complete Cleanup Action Plans (CAPs) for up to two (2) hazardous substances
and up to two (2) petroleum substance brownfields sites requiring cleanup.
o Complete up to two Brownfields A WPs for brownfields-impacted areas within the

Project Outcomes: The primary desired outcomes of the project include building a
sustainable brownfields program by developing the "organizational infrastructure" within
the County and partners to permanently enhance the County's processes for assessing,
remediating and catalyzing the redevelopment and reuse of brownfield sites. Based on the
exceptionally high levels of economic distress, in particular unemployment, other key
outcomes will be to spur private investment and the creation of jobs through additional
development projects on brownfield sites. Another expected outcome of the project is
reducing environmental threats to residents throughout the County. The following
outcomes associated with the assessment grants are anticipated and will be tracked on a
quarterly basis:
o Number of sites assessed;
o Number of sites for which property title transfers are facilitated;
o Number of acres of land redeveloped and square footage of buildings positioned
for adaptive reuse;
o Acres of parks or other green space created;
o Length of walking or bike trails created;
o Amount of private investment leveraged;
o Amount of other funding leveraged;
o Number of jobs created or retained;

the avenues listed above.
-9-Page 32 of 59 - EXHIBIT 7 TO DESCHUTES COUNTY DOCUMENT NO. 2013-607
Deschutes County, June 26, 2013
The County, with assistance from the BAC and Consultant, will conduct public meetings
[estimated at five (5)] as needed throughout the life of the project to discuss the project
and its progress, solicit community input (for example during the inventory and
prioritization of sites), and actively engage the community (including the BAC) and
stakeholders (for example during redevelopment and cleanup planning).
Anticipated meetings (to solicit community input and keep the community engaged) are
as follows:
o Project Kick-Off Meeting
o Inventory and Prioritization Meeting
o Area-Wide Planning Meeting
o Clean-up Planning Meeting
o One ( 1) additional meeting to be used as needed.
Topic-specific materials will be produced for each meeting. Additional opportunities for
the Community to provide input and remain engaged will be via an email message system
to be made available on the Brownfields Project webpage.
When sites are identified for assessment, the primary information flow will be outward to
the community, notifying local stakeholders about assessment activities that will occur,
sharing results of the assessments, and explaining the health, safety, and environmental
significance of the findings. During cleanup and redevelopment planning, the County
will inform local stakeholders of plans; solicit feedback on community concerns, needs,
and desires; and coordinate with the Deschutes County Public Health Department and
DEQ to help educate residents on the nature of the identified contamination and remedial
activities that will occur.
Budgeted personnel and fringe costs include 160 hours (80 hours from each of the
hazardous and petroleum substances grants) at $43.00 per hour for Community
Development Department staff, plus fringe benefits estimated at 39%. Budgeted supply
costs of $1,386.80 for each grant include $500 for printing costs, $386.80 for mailing
expenses associated with public notices, and $500 for display boards and similar graphic
displays for use at public meetings.

*** Deschutes County intends to complete one comprehensive "project QAPP" to cover anticipated assessment
activities that might occur over the course of the project. We will subsequently complete site-specific SSSAPs for each
site that reference the comprehensive "project QAPP" for methods & QAJQC for each proposed task in the SSSAPs.
We've found this to be an efficient way of addressing this requirement at the beginning of the project and expediting
the completion and approval of SSSAPs later on.
Additional details for each Subtask are provided in the remainder of this Section.
2.3.1 Site Inventory and Prioritization
The County will use a portion of the assessment grant funding to build an initial
inventory of brownfields sites, which has not been completed to date. The data will also
be integrated to better relate the presence of hazardous and petroleum substance
brownfields to various economic impacts associated with brownfields, as well as health
data. The County will perform the following inventory activities as part of this task:
o Conduct tours/inspections throughout major commercial/industrial corridors in
the County and its partnering cities to identify blighted or vacant potential
hazardous substance brownfields sites that are not recorded in existing
environmental databases.
o Review County and partnering city records that are potentially relevant to
identifying brownfields (including occupancy and other permits, tax delinquency
status, building code violations, etc.).
o Review available historical Sanborn fire insurance maps covering the years 1890-
1944 to identify historic sites which have a significant potential for impacts from
historical land uses.
o Survey local real estate industry representatives for information on sites in the
County and its partnering cities.
o Review Deschutes Public Health records to verify that all sites with known or
suspected impacts or threats to public health are being included in the
eval uati on/prioritization process.
Although the inventory may not identify all potential brownfields sites, it should help to
identify and focus attention on sites that are most significant in terms of health impacts,
concerns of residents, and/or of interest to the development community. Budgeted supply
costs of $3,000 for each grant include $2,500 for acquisition (approximately $20/map) of
historical fire insurance maps/other records and $500 for printing costs.
-11-Page 34 of 59 - EXHIBIT 7 TO DESCHUTES COUNTY DOCUMENT NO. 2013-607
Deschutes County, June 26, 2013
The County will use CA funds to update the inventory of brownfields and enter existing
inventory data into a Geographic Information System (GIS) database, and compile and
enter additional information collected during the CA term. Initially, a form will be
developed to guide and document data collection and facilitate an efficient transition into
the GIS database. After preparing the form, other sites will be identified by the County
through review of the USEPA and DEQ databases of contaminated sites, community
stakeholder nominations, and ground surveys.
Following initial/supplemental inventory activities, sites will be prioritized for
assessments and/or cleanup/redevelopment planning. It is anticipated that factors to be
weighted the most heavily in prioritizing sites will include: (1) economic development
potential/opportunities; (2) known or suspected threats to public health; (3) sites
identified in existing community planning documents, ( 4) degree of known or suspected
environmental impacts; (5) degree of blight or underutilization; (6) tax delinquency
status; and (7) community concerns.
2.3.2 Site Eligibility Determinations
The County and/or its Consultant will contact site owners, negotiate access agreements,
and complete site eligibility determinations (for brownfield eligibility) prior to beginning
site assessment and/or cleanup/redevelopment planning activities.
For planning purposes, it is assumed that site eligibility determinations will be completed
at up 10 high priority hazardous substance and up to 1 0 high priority petroleum substance
brownfield sites at an average cost of $500 each ($10,000 total). This is an estimated
average cost based utilizing an efficient method (spreadsheet) for dealing with multiple
parcel sites that will be used for this project to cut down on potential spending. The
ACRES database will be updated at the conclusion of each site eligibility determination.
2.3.3 Site Characterization-Phase I ESAs
As previously noted, the County will retain a Consultant to provide environmental
services, including the completion of Phase I ESAs in accordance with All Appropriate
Inquiry and ASTM Practice E 1527-05 "Standard Practice for ESAs; Phase I ESA
Process."
For planning purposes, the budget assumes Phase I ESAs will be completed at up five (5)
high priority hazardous substance and up to five ( 5) high priority petroleum substance
brownfield sites at an average cost of $4,500 each ($45,000 total). The ACRES database
will be updated at the conclusion of each Phase I ESA.
2.3.4 Site Characterization-Initial/Supplemental Phase II ESAs
The County anticipates conducting Phase II ESAs where the Phase I ESAs or other
available information suggests that additional investigation is warranted. For planning
purposes, the budget assumes Phase II ESAs will be completed at up to three (3) high
priority hazardous substance and up to three (3) high priority petroleum substance
brownfield sites, with supplemental site investigation activities on up to two [one (1)
hazardous substances and one (1) petroleum products brownfields sites]. It is assumed
-12-Page 35 of 59 - EXHIBIT 7 TO DESCHUTES COUNTY DOCUMENT NO. 2013-607
Deschutes County, June 26, 2013
that the Phase II ESAs will have an average cost of $17,000 each ($136,000 total).
Individual Phase II ESA reports will be prepared and submitted to DEQ and/or USEP A
for each site upon completion of field activities and receipt of analytical data. Property
profiles will be completed and updated quarterly in the ACRES for each property where
CA funds are expended.
2.3.5 Endangered Species Act and National Historic Preservation Act Requirements
The Consultant will provide information to the County to help it fulfill USEPA's
requirements under the Endangered Species Act Section 7 and the National Historic
Preservation Act Section 106 (NHP A). The information will include the location of the
project, any threatened or endangered species or habitat that may be affected by the
project, whether the a site is considered to be of concern by the State Historic
Preservation Officer (SHPO), a list of Tribes who may believe the site or project could
disturb cultural resources, and an evaluation as to whether cleanup/redevelopment plans
could have adverse effects on endangered or cultural resources.
The estimated costs for the Phase I & II ESAs for each site (described in Section 2.3.3
and summarized in Section 2.3) include budget for the evaluation of Endangered Species
Act and NHP A requirements.
2.3.6 Quality Assurance Project Plan (QAPP)
Prior to commencement of the Phase II ESA work, the County and the Consultant will
participate in a pre-Quality Assurance Project Plan (QAPP) conference call with USEPA.
A QAPP then will be prepared and submitted to the USEP A for approval.
2.3. 7 Site-Specific Sampling and Analysis Plans CSSSAPs) and Health and Safety Plan
A Site-Specific Sampling and Analysis Plan (SSSAP) for each site/property will be
prepared and submitted to USEP A for approval prior to conducting Phase II ESA field
work. In addition, a site-specific Health and Safety Plan (HASP), which addresses each
property where Phase II ESA work is anticipated, will be submitted to USEP A for review
prior to conducting any field activities.
The estimated costs for the Phase II ESAs and supplemental Phase II ESAs (described in
Section 2.3.4 and summarized in Section 2.3) include budget for preparation of the
QAPP, SSSAPs and HASPs for each site.
2.4 Task 4 -Cleanup Planning
Task 4 will be completed by the Consultant, with assistance from the City, BAC and
other stakeholders as needed. The estimated Subtask budget breakdown for Task 4 is
provided in the following table.
-13-Page 36 of 59 - EXHIBIT 7 TO DESCHUTES COUNTY DOCUMENT NO. 2013-607

TOTAL COST $130,000.00 $65,000.00 $65,000.00
2. 4.1 Analysis o[Brownfields Cleanup Alternatives
The County will conduct cleanup and redevelopment planning as required by DEQ and/or
the USEP A programs for brownfields where redevelopment is imminent and such
activities will assist the developer. Planning may take the form of identifying soil and
groundwater contamination, conceptual site models, site-specific remedial action
objectives, identifying state and federal cleanup regulatory requirements, and analysis of
brownfield cleanup alternatives [ABCA]; preparing Cleanup Action Plans (CAPs);
assessment of brownfields redevelopment alternatives; and evaluation of institutional and
engineering controls. Meetings will be held with stakeholders as needed to develop and
review the most appropriate and effective remedial options for each selected brownfield
site and redevelopment. The County and environmental consultant will work closely
with DEQ and USEP A in considering options for cleanup planning. This work task
anticipates conducting remedial planning activities on up to four sites [up to two (2)
hazardous substances and up to two (2) petroleum products brownfields sites] at an
average estimated cost of $10,000 ($40,000 total).
2.4.2 AWP fOr Brownfields Impacted Areas
Also included under this task is the completion of Brownfield A WP for up to two
brownfields-impacted areas of the County. The AWP may include performing a variety
of activities focused on identifying potential future uses for the brownfields-impacted
areas and developing strategies to facilitate the reuse of existing infrastructure as well as
identifying potential infrastructure investments needed to accommodate alternative future
uses. Tasks anticipated to be completed as part of A WP include:
•!• Evaluating existing environmental conditions, local market potential, and
needed infrastructure improvements;
•!• Developing strategies for brownfields site cleanup and reuse;
•!• Identifying sources or leveraging opportunities to help implement
revitalization including specific strategies for public/private investments
and infrastructure improvements.
Any reuse planning activities that are "site-specific" will be performed only on those
parcels that are confirmed to meet the eligibility requirements.

INTRODUCTION
Deschutes County has been awarded two U.S. EPA Community Wide Assessment (CWA) grants to address
brownfield redevelopment challenges in the County . If managed effectively, these grants can catalyze the
redevelopment of brownfield properties and surrounding areas . Further, the grants can facilitate an organizational
infrastructure with which the County and its partners can effectively lead ongoing brownfield revitalization efforts.
In our experience, the critical steps for cataly zing brownfields redevelopment are:
1. Inventory brownfield properties and develop a vision for redevelopment in targeted areas.
2. Prioritize properties within designated brownfield planning areas where assessment and remediation support
overall goals for redevelopment.
3. Assess and cleanup brownfields to encourage redevelopment.
4. Involve the public to fully participate in all key steps of this process .
These steps demand experts with a wide range of skills and experience. For this project, Apex Companies, LLC
(Apex) has assembled a skilled and experienced team:
• Apex-Experts at brownfield assessment, remediation, and redevelopment.
• Clll As sociates, LLC (CIII)-Specialists at EPA brownfield planning , grant wr iting and administration.
• MacK enz ie-Experts in regional design, planning , and GIS.
• The Mary Ort on Company, LLC (TMOC)-A Bend-based public involvement and outreach specialist.
While our team members ' backgrounds and skills are diverse, our team has a strong record of collaboration and
success on brownfield planning , assessment, and remediation projects.

Pr ojec t Managem ent and Reporting
The Deschutes County CWA project will last approximately three years. A wide range of activities , involving
numerous stakeholders, will occur; therefore, robust project management is required. Our approach is summarized
below. These plans may be modified to meet County 1 preferences.
Co mmunication s, Coo rdin a tion and Reporting
• The Apex Project Manager will be the primary point of contact. The Project Manager will have overall
responsibility for the Apex Team, communications with the County, reporting, scheduling, and budget control.
• The Apex Project Manager will maintain continuous communications with our team members to ensure that
our efforts are aligned. To provide the County with the full benefit of our team, direct lines of communication
will also be established between the County and Apex's teaming partners.
• Our first step will be to meet with the County to discuss the project, clarify goals and limitations, identify
uncertainties, and refine plans. This meeting will provide an opportunity to discuss details about grant
implementation, reporting , schedule, budget, and other important aspects of this project. A product of these
initial meetings will be a detailed budget, for each task and subtask, and a short and long term project
schedule.
• We recommend in-person meetings every two months, or more frequently. The purpose of the meetings will
be to coordinate with the County, solicit feedback, and address problems, if encountered. Key team
members will attend other meetings (e.g ., advisory committees) as requested. We will present information
and updates in clear and concise language that anybody can understand . Large-scale renderings, charts,
and figures will be prepared as necessary.
• Monthly written status reports will be prepared. Each report will include: (1) summary of work completed, (2)
scheduled update, (3) project milestones, (4) summary of completed deliverables, (5) problems encountered
and solutions , (6) schedule update, and (7) budget summary.
• Apex will assist the County to complete EPA-mandated · reporting, including: (1) quarterly progress/status
reports ; (2) annual financial status reports; (3) ACRES updates; and (4) the final close-out summary report.
Apex's level of involvement for these reports will be determined in coordination with the County.
Community Outreach and Public Involvement
A thorough and well -executed public participation strategy leads to better brownfield
planning, more durable decisions, and stronger public support . We understand that the
Co unty Planning Department has considerable experience with successful community
outreach and public involvement, and plans to take the lead on public outreach and
involvement for this project. We are prepared to assist in this arena to the extent
needed by the County . Support could range from development of a public involvement
strategy to be implemented by County staff, to managing all the details of designing,
preparing for, and facilitating the anticipated series of public meetings . The level of
support desired by the County can be be clarified during initial meetings.
Stakeholders who have
input into how they
participa te are generally
more satisfied with the
public participation
process and the final
decision s.
Community involvement will be especially important during the site prioritization process and for area wide planning.
A kickoff meeting for each area wide planning location will be held to define project objectives, schedule, and
opportunities for involvement. This will be followed by visioning meetings with a strategic set of stakeholders
representing several interests (business, public, etc.), selected by the County. The visioning meetings will be

of local priorities , communicate next steps in terms of implementation (implementation plan), and offer a final
opportunity for input.
Site Inventory, Prioritization, and Assessment
The first step for community-wide brownfield redevelopment is to develop an understanding of the extent of
brownfields in the community by developing an inventory that will estimate the number, types, and locations of
brownfields in Deschutes County. This serves as the foundation for subsequent prioritization , assessment , and
planning activities. Our approach for each of these tasks is described below.
In ven to ry Pr ocess
A brownfield inventory should be robust enough that it supports prioritization , planning , and decision making .
However, this can be challenging due to limited information about contaminant conditions at many properties and
landowner/occupant concerns about a brownfield "stigma ". The specific inventory approach that we propose is:
• First, query key DEQ databases (e .g., ECSI and Leaking Underground Storage Tank , UST).
• Second, develop a list of common brownfields types (e.g., service stations, auto repair facilities, dry cleaners,
landfills, bulk chemical storage facilities, and shooting ranges).
• Third, identify current and historical facilities that match the brownfield types listed above , using historical
sources (e.g . Sanborn fire insurance maps and City Directories).
• Fourth, identify other potential brownfields , based on a windshield survey, interviews with key DEQ staff,
County knowledge , and from public feedback.
Beginning with the County 's taxlot shapefile , the inventory will be compiled
in GIS format. Mackenzie, a member of our team, is familiar with the
County's current GIS datasets through their previous work on various
projects throughout the County and will coordinate with County GIS Staff to
ensure the inventory is compatible with the County GIS system.
Macken zie will manage the GIS information and ensure that the brownfield
inventory that is created and used for this project is current and accurate
as possible . The inventory will be organized into site characteristics for

buy-in for brownfield assessment due
to concerns about stigma or
resistance to "uncovering problems".

redevelopment constraints, site size , land use and zoning , characteristics
of the brownfield (impacts , type of constituents, cost factors , etc.). The finished GIS -based inventory will support
detailed analysis of the brownfields (e.g., size of parcel , owner, zoning, proximity to public infrastructure ,
transportation networks, etc.) for subsequent planning efforts . This task will include mapping and preparing materials
to be used in interim meetings and final presentations and products as well as coordination with stakeholder groups.
Upon completion , the GIS inventory will be provided to the County in shapefile format , as well as Excel, for any future
County work/projects/analysis.
Priori tiza tion Pr ocess
Prioriti zation is the process where properties are selected for assessment of environmental conditions and possible
cleanup . This process takes into consideration a number of factors such as : (1) economic development opportunities;
(2) known or suspected threats to public health; (3) sites identified in community planning documents; (4) degree of
environmental impacts; (5) degree of blight or underutilization ; (6) tax delinquency; and (7) community concerns.
Other key considerations include whether the landowner/occupant is supportive of the assessment process and
whether the scope of assessment and possible cleanup is compatible with the budget. Public participation in this
process is critical to develop support for final decisions .
We propose the following prioritization approach :

• The brownfield inventory will be queried to identify properties compatible with area wide planning goals.2 For
example, if an area wide planning goal is revitalization of auto-specific transitional properties in downtown
Redmond, potential brownfield properties within that target area would be identified. Similarly, if a goal is
redevelopment of industrial lands 10 acres or greater and near major transportation corridors, properties that
meet those criteria would be identified.
• Once a subset of potential brownfield sites compatible with one or
more planning goals is identified, each property would be subject to a
second level of evaluation based on the factors listed above and
additional factors that could be identified in the future . Properties that
don't meet these criteria would be considered low priority for further
assessment.
Hazardous Building Materials
Hazardous building materials, such as
asbestos and lead-based paint,
commonly limit the redevelopment
potential of brownfield properties.
Apex staff are experts at hazardous

goals), applicants for assessment and cleanup funding would be improving redevelopment planning

L---------------------~ • Before any EPA funds are dedicated to a property, an eligibility
determination will be performed . Eligibility factors include: (1) the site meets the EPA definition of a
brownfield , (2) the owners are not viable responsible parties for the contamination, (3) the site is not under
active enforcement from EPA or DEQ , and (4) the site is not under the control of the U.S. government. The
eligibility evaluation process will be memorialized for each property using an established checklist and in an
electronic database.
Assessment
Assessment is a phased process, initially consisting of a reconnaissance of the subject property, interviews, and
document review (the Phase I ESA). If contamination is suspected, a second phase of investigation (Phase II ESA)
may be performed, often consisting of testing soil , groundwater, and/or soil gas for the presence of hazardous
substances. Our assessment approach is described below.
Phase I ESA The purpose of the Phase I ESA is to develop an understanding of the current and historical uses of a
property, identify the nature of possible impacts, and establish a framework for subsequent work. The Phase I ESAs
will be prepared in strict conformance with ASTM Standard 1527-05/133 . Apex has completed hundreds of Phase I
ESAs in Oregon and elsewhere in the U.S; therefore, we have the
experience to efficiently complete this task.
Phase II ESA The scopes of Phase II ESAs are widely variable, but simply,
should be focused on obtaining the data necessary to understand risks to
human health and the environment and to understand development
constraints. By considering future land use early in the process, Phase II
investigations are streamlined and costs are reduced . Phase II ESAs will be
performed in accordance with ASTM E 1903-11. The specific methods for
each Phase II ESA will be determined on a site-specific basis; however, we
will use the following guidelines for all Phase II ESAs:
Quality Assurance Project Plan
Apex has prepared numerous EPA-
approved QAPPs for EPA grant
funded projects. Our clients have
included the Oregon DEQ and METRO.
This experience will reduce the costs
and timeframe for preparing a QAPP
for this project.
• . The rationale and locations for soil, groundwater, and/or soil vapor testing will be clearly explained.
2 The Brownfields Assess ment Coop erative Agreement Work Plan suggests that area wide planning (AWP) will be performed as part of
Cleanup/Redevelopment Planning. The County may want to consider performing some portion of the AWP prior to the site
prioritization/assessment process to ensure that these efforts match the County 's brownfield redevelopment goals . The Apex Team can
coordinate with the County at the outset of the project regarding this issue.
3 ASTM is scheduled to release a revised Phase I ESA standard (ASTM-1527 -13) in November 2013 .

• Assessment plans and schedule will be clearly communicated with the County, partners, and property
owners.
• We will use methods and equipment that cause the least disturbance to the property, business, or traffic.
• Health and safety concerns will be addressed at every step of the project.
• Sampling and laboratory work will be performed in accordance with Federal, state, and local regulations and
guidance issued by EPA and DEQ.
When the Phase II ESA is complete, the County will understand whether, and to what extent, hazardous substances
limit a property's use and development potential.
Site -Specific Sampling and Analysis Plans A sampling and analysis plan (SAP) is a detailed road map that explains
the locations, rationale, and methods for sample collection, and the analyses that will be used to test for hazardous
substances. Apex will prepare a site-specific SAP for each Phase II ESA. To reduce costs, Apex will rely on our
library of Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs), which provide detailed descriptions of most field methods.
Cleanup Planning
The Apex Team recognizes and is experienced at identifying the nuances
in developing an Analysis of Brownfield Cleanup Alternatives (ABCA). To
develop an ABCA, one must have an end use in mind for which the
remediation standards will apply. Such end uses might be known in cases
where development is already being pursued. Alternatively, the
remediation goals targeted in an ABCA may be based on reuse scenarios
established in the area wide planning process and stakeholder input.
EPA-Specific Cleanup Requirements
EPA-funded cleanup projects are
subject to a range of special
requirements, including :
• Cultural resources evaluation, per
the National Historical Preservation
Act.
Analysis of Brownfield Cleanup Alternatives • Sensitive species evaluation, per
the Endangered Species Act.
When a property has been identified that meets eligibility requirements, fits • Prevailing wage, per the Davis·

to fit those goals, resulting in improved projects, at lower cost. results in fewer surprises.
Cleanup planning will be in accordance with EPA guidance for ABCA and Oregon requirements (OAR 340 -122 -
0085). This guidance requires that a cleanup approach be selected after considering a number of factors, such as
effectiveness, cost, permanence, and risk. Apex will work closely with the County and property owners/developers to
ensure that this analysis is correct and the selected remedy considers all key land use and redevelopment concerns.
Remediation can proceed when the recommended alternative is approved by the County, DEQ, and the property
owner.
Area Wide Planning for Brownfield Impacted Areas
Area wide planning for brownfields recognizes the symbiosis between an environmentally challenged property and
the community that surrounds it, and that revitalization takes more than environmental site assessments or even
remediation. The Apex Team has long understood these connections and as a result, has a long history of
experience in what is a relatively new practice in the brownfield community. In our opinion, the area wide planning
process shoud not wait until the end of the project, but rather should be continuous. For example, area wide
planning should be considered during the site prioritization and assessment process to ensure that limited
assessment funds are directed toward properties that align with the County's planning goals.
Identify Study Areas
The Apex Team will work with the County to identify the best two locations for area wide planning. Our team provides
planning and design based expertise with first-hand experience grounded in best practices and lessons learned from

participants in EPA's Brownfield Area Wide Planning program and other similar projects. It will be critical to define a
project area where the available resources can be efficiently used and will have a significant impact. Details such as
the location, size, and scope of area wide planning will be determined through discussions with the County and its
partners.
This step may initially occur during the site prioritization process, to assist the County in establishing criteria for
prioritization. Refinements to the study area boundaries can occur after assessments are completed. The Apex
Team has unique qualifications for this step. Specifically, in 2011 and 2012, Clark Henry assisted the EPA Brownfield
Area Wide Planning program to identify lessons learned from the first round of grantees.
Evaluate Existing Conditions, Market Potential, and Infrastructure Improvements
Existing conditions for area wide planning locations will be compiled using a GIS platform. These conditions include
demographics, economics, built environment, utility and transportation infrastructure, and natural environment
features . We anticipate that many of these conditions are available in GIS files maintained by the County. Early
compilation of existing conditions in area wide planning regions will provide the County the ability to track changes,
and success, over time.
To evaluate market potential, the Apex Team will review existing plans, policies, and strategies and evaluate them for
consistency with brownfield redevelopment best practices and their ability to support reuses envisioned through the
area wide planning process. Market potential will also be evaluated based on: (1) general market analysis evaluating
general market indicators, which may include, but not be limited to, commercial and residential vacancy rates and
trends over time, retail leakage, or other indicators to gauge general market demand for the development envisioned;
and (2) engagement with the local development community, brokerage houses, and business interests, to gauge the
viability of private development according to near-, mid-, or long-term timeframes .
Develop Strategies for Brownfield Site Cleanup and Reuse
To be effective, area wide planning must be realistic and based on the private market's ability to support development
and public agencies' capacity to make envisioned public improvements. The Apex Team will develop strategies for
brownfield site cleanup and re-use. Some cleanup strategies will be developed as part of the cleanup planning task
(e.g., residential or commercial cleanup levels); however, more large-scale cleanup and reuse strategies will be
developed for area wide planning. These strategies will be based on the analysis of market potential (described
above), estimates of cleanup costs and timeframe, and stakeholder input. Ultimately, the Apex Team will present a
summary of strategies intended to redevelop the greatest number of brownfield properties, and surrounding areas, in
a realistic time frame and within the constraints of the local market and public resources. Apex will also make
recommendations for modifications to comprehensive plans, neighborhood plans, capital improvement plans and
economic development policies to ensure consistency among plans, policies, and strategies to support for
implementation of area wide brownfield plans.
Proposed strategies will include clear direction on how the goals established through the process will be realized. To
this end, we will define What (specific actions); Who is responsible for the action according to sector
(public/private/community); and When (near-term, mid-term, and long-term).
Identify Sources or Leveraging Opportunities for Revitalization
The Apex Team will work with the County to establish a list of potential local, state, and federal resources that may
be available to support the implementation plan. Particular emphasis will be placed on infrastructure improvements
and the investment necessary to make them as a function of the public/private partnerships initiated while engaging
the development community.
Apex will also identify potential public/private partnerships between private sector stakeholders, the County, and its
partners. We anticipate that some of these potential partnerships will be identified as part of the market potential
evaluation. Other potential partnerships will be identified based on our teams experience coordinating such
partnerships from both the public and private perspective.

Key personnel for this project and their primary roles are listed below. Resumes are included in Attachm ent A.
EXPERIENCE AND CAPABILITIES
P roject Experience
• Phase I and Phase II ESAs in Oregon-The Apex Team has completed literally hundreds of Phase I and II
ESAs in Oregon, including in Deschutes County . Recent Phase I ESAs were completed in Bend (two sites) and
at several locations in Portland. We understand land use, geology , and development history here and we know
DEQ 's regulations and policies. Many of our staff are designated ASTM11527-05 Environmental Professionals.
• Environmental Investigations and Cleanups in Oregon -Petroleum and Hazardous Materials. The Apex
Team has performed many investigations and cleanups of petroleum and hazardous substance-impacted sites
throughout Oregon. We routinely perform these services for the Port of Portland, DEQ, and numerous private
clients. Locally, our staff managed investigations/cleanup at the Sunriver Amphitheater, the Walgreens property
at NE 3rd and NE Franklin in Bend, and the Redmond Rod and Gun Club, and other locations.
• Conducting Environmental Investigations and Cleanups Using EPA Brownfield Grants. Our staff have
managed numerous projects using EPA Brownfield grants , including: (1) two Brownfield Assessment Grants -
METRO ; (2) assessment and cleanup of Tabor Commons -City of Portland ; (3) assessment and cleanup of
Gateway Park -Portland Development Commission ; (4) remediation of Eichler Park-City of Beaverton; and (5)
multiple assessment/remediation projects -DEQ. Our teaming partner, Clark Henry, managed dozens of
brownfield assessments and cleanup on behalf of the City of Portland.
• Performing Environmental Inventories Utilizing GIS. The Harbor ReDi project, a collaboration of Apex and
MacKen zie, is an excellent example of our relevant experience using GIS for inventories. For this project, our
team used GIS to compile information about a wide range of conditions (parcel size , zoning , utility infrastructure,
transportation infrastructure , depth to groundwater, type of contamination) at brownfield sites in Portland. After
establishing weighting factors for each parameter , properties were ranked , using a comparative site matri x, to
identify the best candidates for industrial development. Another example of our team experience is the Regional
Industrial Lands Inventory and Site Readiness Project. For this project, a GIS -based inventory of industrial sites
was established and divided into tiers, ba sed on development readiness . Subsequently, top tier sites were
subject to more detailed analysis of development constraints , and detailed actions/requirements/costs for
addressing the barriers to development readiness (including brownfield conditions), and preliminary market
opportunities and economic benefit for development of such sites.
• Relevant Area s of Expertise/Uniqu e Experience Related to EPA Brownfield Grant Implementation. Two

to planning, including regulations specific to Deschutes County.
• Knowledge and Experienc e Pertaining to OSHA and Other Health and Safety Rules or Requirem ents.
The Apex Team maintains a comprehensive health and safety program that has withstood rigorous audits by
numerous public and private clients . Our extremely low accident rate is testament to the seriousness and
effectiveness of our he alth and safety program . Four of our staff maintain asbestos certifications, reducing
the risks associated with asbestos materials commonly encountered at brownfields .
• Knowledge and Experience Pertaining to Site Redevelopment Service s. Besides the numerous
industrial lands inventory, analysis, and planning projects completed and in progress, we have master
planned and designed well over 40 million SF of industrial, manufacturing, and business parks over the last
three decades. Local experience includes the SunRiver Homeowners Aquatic Recreation Center, Old Mill
District Master Planning, Old Mill District Retail Center Phase II, COCC master plan and many others .
• Individual Staff Knowledge and Technical Expertise Pertaining to ESAs, Brownfield Projects, and
Contaminated Site Remediation. The staff assembled for this project has a wealth of individual knowledge
and technical expertise performing Phase 1/11 ESAs, cleaning up, and redeveloping brownfield sites. Our
team members have managed one of the most successful brownfield programs in the U.S . (City of Portland)
and we are trusted by Oregon's highest environmental regulatory agency, DEQ, to perform assessments and
remediation on their behalf. Beyond the key persons listed in this proposal, the Apex Team offers a number
of other staff (not highlighted herein due to space limitations) with up to 28 years of experience providing
precisely these services .
Inte rn a l Staff Q ua lific ation s a nd Ex pe ri e nce
Safety. All staff that perform assessment and remediation activities hold current HAZWOPER certificates. Apex
maintains a robust health and sa fety program , managed at the local and corporate levels . Our program includes
corporate health and safety plans, site-specific health and safety plans, quarterly training, and accident/near-miss
reporting . Apex Certified Industrial Hygienists (CIH) are ava ilable if necessary.
Profes sional Qualifications. Our team's local staff includes six engineers, ten geologists , planners (including AICP-
certification), GIS analysts, and landscape architects. Geologists and engineers assigned to this project have 13 to
14 years of experience and will be supported by others that have up to 28 years of experience managing large and
challenging projects. All field staff assigned to the project have experience with brownfield site assessment and
redevelopment projects. For planning, our team will be lead by Clark Henry, who has 13 years of brownfield planning
experience, including management of nearly $2 million EPA Brownfield Assessment and Cleanup Grants, and he
recently consulted for the EPA Offices of Brownfields and Land Revitalization and Sust ainable Communities. Clark
will be supported by MacKenzie's strong team of planners (AICP), landscape architects, and GIS analysts, who bring
more than 35 years of planning experience to the team.
Cos t
The costs presented in the Brownfields Assessment Cooperative Agreement Work Plan appear generally
representative of the work to be completed . We anticipate that some budget may be shifted between tasks (within
each grant). For example, it may be possible to reduce the cost of some Phase II ESAs and shift funding to cleanup
planning or other uses. These budget details and modifications will be closely coordinated with the County . Refer to
Attachment B for a summary of proposed costs.

included a human health risk assessment , community relations, and subcontractor procurement. Following
approval of the RI/FS, Chris managed the remedia l design and implementation of the remedial action ,
consisting of capping the impacted media in-place. The work was conducted under oversight by DEQ's
Land Quality and Air Quality Divisions. The project received an Oregon Brownfield Award in 2012
Tabor Commons (Cafe Au Play) Subsurface Assessment and Remediation, Portland, Oregon. Mr.
Breemer managed the assessment of soil and groundwater conditions at the Tabor Commons brownfield
property in Portland, Oregon, on behalf of the City of Portland. The site was impacted by gasoline,
released from three underground storage tanks at the site. Chris developed and implemented a
remediation plan, under the oversight of the Oregon Department of Env ironmental Quality and the US
Environmental Protection Agency. The underground storage tanks and contaminated soil were removed
from the site and the excavation area was restored . The project was completed under budget, despite
encountering numerous unexpected subsurface utilities. The Oregon Department of Environmental Quality
issued a no further action determination for the site .
Redmond Rod and Gun Club Brownfield Assessment and ABCA, Redmond , Oregon. Mr. Breemer
managed an assessment of impacts to soil at this small arms firing range. The assessment was performed
to define the general magnitude of contamination and potential risks to human health and the environment.
A screening level risk evaluation was performed that showed that soil at some areas of the site could pose
a health risk. To assist the County to evaluate cleanup alternatives, an Analysis of Brownfield Cleanup
Alternatives was completed, which presented a range of possible cleanup approaches and cost estimates.
This work was completed on behalf of the Oregon Department of Environmenta l Quality.

Techni ca l Exp erti s e
Mary Orton is a public participation practitioner, mediator , and
facilitator with 14 years of experience helping government
incorporate public values into its technical decision -making . She
specializes in integrating traditional and innovative public
participation techniques with conflict resolution approaches to
obtain useful information for the decision -making agency.
Experience Summary
Mary Orton helps government leaders, their employees, and their
stakeholders across the country achieve better decision-making and
better outcomes. Mary often obtains dramatic results, particularly in
situations of tough, long-term, and seemingly intractable conflict.
Her experience includes design and facilitation of public
involvement for contentious NEPA processes, collaborative
problem-solving activities, and consensus-building processes. Issue
areas have included Superfund, NHPA Section 106, Endangered
Species Act, land use, transportation, and many other public policy
issues. Her experience of having developed and managed a shelter
and service center for homeless people not only sensitized her to
issues of environmental justice; it also educated her how to engage
people from a wide variety of backgrounds and life experience.
Ke y Proj ec t s
Oregon Department of State Lands (DSL), Public Input for State Rulemaking, Statewide . DSL convened the
Remediation Rulemaking Advisory Committee to advise the department regarding administrative rules for access to
submerged and submersible state lands for remediation and restoration activities. Many of these contaminated sites
are near low -income neighborhoods. Mary identified and recruited a wide variety of stakeholders and designed and
facilitated the RRAC meetings. The group came to consensus on a draft rule to submit to the public for comment.
Grand Canyon Nation al Park (GCNP), NE PA Public Involvemen t, Arizona. Mary designed and managed a
public involvement process fo r GCNP in a highly contentious environment in which two lawsuits had been filed. The
process included a se ries of coast-to-coast sc6ping meetings, and then draft EIS meetings , to gather information for
updating the Colorado River Management Plan . It also included two stakeholder workshops and an expert panel, all
open to the public. Hundreds of stakeholders around the country and the world -highly diverse in worldview, goals,
and approach -participated. Mary achieved the Park's NEPA goals while reducing contentiousness and increasing
trust among stakeholders. Though consensus was not a goal, several major stakeholder groups -originally at odds
with one another -did ultimately present a consensus proposal to the park, much of which was adopted.
De schutes Collabor ative Fore st Project (DCFP), Con sensu s Building and Public Involvement, Bend,
Oregon. DCFP wanted to increase public awareness of a collaborative process to advise the Forest Service on
management of a highly valued area of the Deschutes National Forest that includes the City's drinking wat er
source. The issues were contentious due to previous decisions by the City of Bend and the Forest Service. Mary
and her interns interviewed or briefed 77 community members and produced a "situation assessment" that outlined
the issues and potential conflicts, as well as how they might be addressed. She designed a public meeting for
additional public input , and has (to date) designed three and facilitated two meetings of a technical subgroup that
will ultimately offer recommendations to the Fores t Service .
