I. BACKGROUND: The parties entered into a Forest Development Road Cooperative Agreement (Coop Agreement) on June 23, 2010. This Coop Agreement allows for the parties to cooperate in the planning, survey, design, construction, reconstruction, improvement and maintenance of certain forest development roads. The Schedule A, which is attached to the Coop Agreement, identifies the maintenance responsibilities of the parties to the specific road systems and may be revised as necessary. The process of revising the Schedule A can be labor intensive and time consuming due to requiring extensive valuations and several levels of formal review. Accordingly, formal revision of the Schedule A does not readily lend itself to rapid response times, adjusting to limited funding opportunities and a high degree of site condition specificity. The Coop Agreement allows for specific Project Agreements between the parties with the intent of completing work as expeditiously as available funds or work opportunities allow. The Coop Agreement identifies numerous requirements for the development of Project Agreements. These requirements include but are not limited to: • The specific project (road) must be included in an approved U.S. Forest Service — Cooperator plan (Schedule A). • Mutual approval. • The cost to be borne by each party. • The amount of cooperative funds as set forth in the Project Agreement shall be the maximum commitment of either party unless changed by a formal modification prior to incurring any expense. • Work must be completed in accordance with ageed upon standards. Page 1 of 5 IJSDA, Forest Service OMB 0596-0217 FS -1500-9A H. PURPOSE: The purpose of this Project Agreement (agreement) is to document the parties' cooperation in the improvement of Deschutes Market Road along its frontage with the Bend Pine Administrative Site, the location of the new offices for the Deschutes National Forest Headquarters and the Bend Fort Rock Ranger District. The County and the Forest Service agree that the widening of Deschutes Market Road to include a center turn lane is necessary to provide for the safe and efficient access for the increased vehicular traffic to the Bend Pine Administrative Site that will result from the construction of the Forest Service offices. The work is as described in the hereby incorporated Financial Plan, attached as Exhibit A. III. THE COOPERATOR SHALL: A. Retain jurisdiction and maintenance of Deschutes Market Road during the completion of the improvements. B. Provide timely reviews of the design, specifications, cost estimates, and construction activities. C, Inspect the work to ensure compliance with County regulations and standards. D. Upon completion of the widening and center turn lane on Deschutes Market Road, assume operation and maintenance responsibility for the improved roadway. E. Grant to the Forest Service a driveway permit for the new entrance road onto the Forest Service property from Deschutes Market Road. F. Perform in accordance with the Financial Plan, Exhibit A. IV. THE U.S. FOREST SERVICE SHALL: A. Provide for the design for the widening and center turn lane on Deschutes Market Road including shoulder improvements for pedestrian traffic. B. Prior to beginning construction work, provide the County an opportunity to review the final versions of the completed design, specifications, and cost estimates for the work for the County's concurrence. C. Provide for the construction funding including any contract modifications, the construction contract and contract administration for the widening and center turn lane on Deschutes Market Road including shoulder improvements for pedestrian traffic. D. Complete all work for the widening and center turn lane on Deschutes Market Road and shoulder improvements for pedestrian traffic by October 31, 2011. E.
