deducted from the final payment due the Consultant. No payment shall be made by
the City for any expenses incurred or work done following the effective date of

Standard Plans for Road, Bridge and Municipal Construction). Professional engineers shall
certify engineering plans, specifications, plats, and reports, as applicable, pursuant to
RCW 18.43.070. Consultant further represents and warrants that all final work product

restrict the City from using the work product. Consultant grants to the City a non-
exclusive, perpetual right and license to use, reproduce, distribute, adapt, modify, and
display all final work product produced pursuant to this Agreement. The City’s or other’s
adaptation, modification or use of the final work products other than for the purposes of

Consultant’s own expense, seek judicial protection. Consultant shall indemnify, defend,
and hold harmless the City for all costs, including attorneys’ fees, attendant to any claim
or litigation related to a Public Records Act request for which Consultant has responsive

schedule, unless otherwise indicated in the Scope of Work or where scheduling of
attendance or performance is mutually arranged due to the nature of the Work.
Consultant shall retain the right to designate the means of performing the Work
covered by this agreement, and the Consultant shall be entitled to employ other

alone, and that employing such workers, it is acting individually and not as an agent
for the City.

income tax or Social Security or contributing to the State Industrial Insurance
Program, or otherwise assuming the duties of an employer with respect to Consultant
or any employee of the Consultant.

retired under a State of Washington retirement system and agrees to indemnify any
losses the City may sustain through the Consultant’s failure to do so.
10.Hold Harmless: The Consultant agrees to release, indemnify, defend, and hold harmless
the City, elected officials, employees, officers, representatives, and volunteers from any
and all claims, demands, actions, suits, causes of action, arbitrations, mediations,
proceedings, judgments, awards, injuries, damages, liabilities, taxes, losses, fines, fees,
penalties, expenses, attorney’s or attorneys’ fees, costs, and/or litigation expenses to or
by any and all persons or entities, arising from, resulting from, or related to the negligent
acts, errors or omissions of the Consultant in its performance of this Agreement or a
breach of this Agreement by Consultant, except for that portion of the claims caused by
the City’s sole negligence.
Should a court of competent jurisdiction determine that this agreement is subject to RCW
4.24.115, (Validity of agreement to indemnify against liability for negligence relative to
construction, alteration, improvement, etc., of structure or improvement attached to real
estate…) then, in the event of liability for damages arising out of bodily injury to persons
or damages to property caused by or resulting from the concurrent negligence of the

liability shall be only to the extent of Consultant’s negligence.

Insurance Act, RCW Title 51, solely for the purposes of this indemnification. The Parties
have mutually negotiated and agreed to this waiver. The provisions of this section shall
survive the expiration or termination of this Agreement.
11.Gifts and Conflicts: The City’s Code of Ethics and Washington State law prohibit City
employees from soliciting, accepting, or receiving any gift, gratuity or favor from any
person, firm or corporation involved in a contract or transaction. To ensure compliance
with the City’s Code of Ethics and state law, the Consultant shall not give a gift of any kind
to City employees or officials. Consultant also confirms that Consultant does not have a

is, or will be involved in selecting the Consultant, negotiating or administering this

liability policy on a non-contributory primary basis. The City’s insurance policies shall
not be a source for payment of any Consultant liability, nor shall the maintenance of

Dear Betsy Severtsen:
Otto Rosenau & Associates, Inc. (ORA) is pleased to provide you and your firm with this proposal to provide special
inspection and materials testing services in support of the referenced project. This proposal presents a project
description, scope of work, and proposed fee.
PROJECT DESCRIPTION: The project involves refurbishment and repair of an existing waterway walk.
SCOPE OF WORK: The architect, civil engineer, structural engineer, and applicable building codes dictate which
elements of the project require inspection or testing. Based on our understanding of your project, the anticipated
scope of work for the testing and inspection services includes, but is not limited to, the following items:
• Reinforced concrete (pile cap repairs)
• Grout (leveling pads)
• Precast concrete panel fabrication
• Proprietary anchors
• Structural steel fabrication (nondestructive testing of welds)
• Structural steel erection
• Nondestructive testing of welds (field)
• Aluminum float fabrication
ORA proposes to provide appropriately licensed and qualified engineers or inspectors to perform the inspection
and testing tasks. The results of field tests and inspections will be communicated to the owner’s and contractor’s
representative as soon as practical. Items that do not conform to the project specifications will be logged and tracked
until corrective action is completed. Handwritten reports will be prepared and left on-site after each inspection.
Typewritten reports will be distributed to the appropriate project team members and jurisdiction.
PROPOSED FEE: Otto Rosenau and Associates, Inc. propose to provide the above described services on a unit
fee basis where we will charge only for the services we perform. Our unit fees are presented on the attached Fee
Schedule.

Based on our review of the project drawings and specifications dated July 18, 2022, and on our past experience on
similar projects, we suggest a budget of $19,980.10 be established for the inspection and testing services. The
actual total fee for inspection and testing services is dependent on the efficiency, performance, and schedule of the
general contractor, subcontractors, and material suppliers.
SCHEDULE: We are prepared to begin work on your project as required by the construction schedule. Appropriate
personnel will be dispatched to the project on an on-call basis in response to requests from the authorized field
representative. Though we may be able to respond to last minute or emergency calls for inspection, we request 48
hours’ notice for inspections.

indicate so by signing and returning one copy to us via fax (206-723-2221), email (accounting@ottorosenau.com),
or mail as an authorization to proceed.
This proposal, including the proposed unit fees, is accepted by:

a premium rate of 2.0 times the regular rate will be charged. All services are portal to portal from ORA’s facility.
3) There shall be a three-hour minimum charge per trip during regular work hours, a four-hour minimum charge
per trip for weekend and holiday, and an eight-hour minimum charge per trip for night shifts and out of town
shifts. The applicable labor rate will apply depending upon the day/shift demand. Late cancellations (less than
3 business hours’ notice for day shift or 24 hours’ notice for night shift) will be charged 50% of the minimum
charge at the applicable rate.
4) Test samples may be required to remain on the jobsite undisturbed for 24 to 48 hours as per the codes,
standards, or specifications and will be picked up as designated. All samples, including hold samples, tested or
not, shall be charged at the published rate. The Client will be invoiced portal to portal at the applicable labor
rate. Laboratory rush samples will be invoiced at 1.5 times the standard test rate.
5) Concrete test specimens will be made according to ASTM C31 with the exception of sections 10.1.2 and 12.1.5.
These items refer to initial curing of the samples. If the Client would like the samples cured in accordance to
these sections, arrangements can be made (applicable fees apply) to provide a cure box/tank, temperature
recorders, etc.
6) Asphalt content of asphalt mixture by ignition method will be performed according to ASTM D6307 with the
exception of sections 10.9 and 13.16. These sections refer to the mathematical calculation of asphalt content
with oven calibration factor. Oven calibration factor will not be tested and will be included in the calculation with
a value of zero ‘0’. If the client would like the samples calculated in accordance to these sections, arrangements
can be made (applicable fees apply) to perform the applicable oven calibration factor.
7) The Client agrees that the labor rates quoted shall be increased annually in proportion to the increase in the
Consumer Price Index for Urban Wage Earners and Clerical Workers (CPI-W) as published by the Bureau of
Labor Statistics of the U.S. Department of Labor.
8) As a professional services firm, ORA is not typically subject to prevailing wage agreements; however, should
our services be subject to prevailing wage rates under state law, this proposal is null and void.
9) Client shall be invoiced once each month for work performed during the preceding month. ORA accepts the
following methods of payment: cash, check, or credit card (Visa or MasterCard). Client agrees to pay each
invoice within 30 days of the date rendered. A service charge of one-and-a-half percent per month will be added
to all delinquent accounts. Invoices not paid within 60 days may result in ORA stopping Work until such invoices
rendered are paid in full. Where legal action, including assertion of lien rights, becomes necessary to obtain
payment for services provided, Client agrees to pay all collection costs, including any and all attorney’s fees.
10) Whenever applicable and unless stated in our fee schedule, estimated budgets do not include overtime hours,
re-inspections or re-tests of deficiencies, or services provided beyond our original scope. Our actual total fee
will be determined on a unit-fee basis wherein we will charge only for work performed. The construction
schedule and the performance of the general contractor, sub-contractors, and material suppliers will directly
impact our actual total fee.
11) If additional insured status is required by written contract, only those parties that we are actually doing work for
directly would be eligible for coverage as an additional insured on our policy.
