Background: Fleet staff identified a South Coast Air Quality Management District, MSRC Funding opportunity that will allow the City of San Bernardino participation in the FY 2008/2009 MSRC Funding for the On-Road Alternative Fuel Engine program. This SCAQMD Program offers to fund the incremental cost difference between a Diesel truck and the more expensive natural gas alternative fueled trucks required by SCAQMD Fleet Rules 1193 and 1196. On March 31, 2009, this application was presented to the Grants AD/Hoc Committee. The Committee recommended approval of the grant submittal and, if awarded, to send to the Mayor and Common Council for approval of the grant contract. On September 11, 2009, the South Coast Air Quality Management District's Governing Board approved funding for the City of San Bernardino's application. Attached for your review is a copy of the SCAQMD MSRC Proposal #PA2009-07-5 funding notification letter and Contract #ML09011 (see exhibit "A"). The award is a reimbursement that is tied to the upcoming purchase of ten (10) Natural Gas Refuse Trucks. The reimbursement amount is $25,000 per truck for a total award of $250,000. During the FY 06/07 budget preparation, Fleet staff developed a multi-year long term replacement schedule for the IWM Division that was approved as part of the FY 06/07 IWM Division Budget. The replacement of these aging units is the next phase of that schedule. Financial Impact: Approximately $285,000 was included in the FY 2009/10 IWM Division budget in anticipation of half a year of debt service payments for these 10 vehicles; $250,000 was also budgeted as anticipated grant revenue (for a net cost to the IWM Fund of$35,000). Since the vehicles will not be delivered until July or August of FY 2010/11, there will be no payment this fiscal year and there will also be no grant revenues, resulting in net savings to the IWM Fund of$35,000 this FY. Next FY, 2010/11, $570,000 will be included in the IWM Division budget for a full year of debt service payments along with grant revenues of$250,000 to offset this cost.

PARTIES - The parties to this Contract are the South Coast Air Quality Management District (hereinafter referred to as "AQMD")whose address is 21865 Copley Drive, Diamond Bar, California 917654178, and the City of San Bernardino (hereinafter referred to as 'CONTRACTOR") whose address is 300 North "D"Street, San Bernardino, California 92418, 2. RECITALS A. AQMD is the local agency with primary responsibility for regulating stationary source air pollution within the geographical boundaries of the South Coast Air Quality Management District in the State of California (State). AQMD is authorized under State Health & Safety Code Section 44225 (Assembly Bill (AB) 2766) to levy a fee on motor vehicles for the purpose of reducing air pollution from such vehicles and to implement the California Clean Air Act. B. Under AB 2766 the AQMD'S Governing Board has authorized the imposition of the statutorily set motor vehicle fee. By taking such action the State's Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) is required to collect such fee and remit it periodically to AQMD. C. AB 2766 further mandates that thirty (30) percent of such vehicle registration fees be placed by AQMD into a separate account for the sole purpose of implementing and monitoring programs to reduce air pollution from motor vehicles. D. AB 2766 creates a regional Mobile Source Air Pollution Reduction Review Committee (MSRC) to develop a work program to fund projects from the separate account. Pursuant to approval of the work program by AQMD'S Governing Board, AQMD Board authorized a contract with CONTRACTOR for services described in Attachment 1 - Statement of Work, expressly incorporated herein by this reference and made a part hereof of this Contract. E. CONTRACTOR has met the requirements for receipt of AB 2766 Discretionary Funds as set forth in CONTRACTOR' Local Government Match Program Application dated March 17, 2009. 3. DMV FEES - CONTRACTOR acknowledges that AQMD cannot guarantee the amount of fees to be collected under AB 2766 will be sufficient to fund this Contract. CONTRACTOR further acknowledges that AQMD'S receipt of funds is contingent on the timely remittance by State's DMV. AQMD assumes no responsibility for the collection and remittance of motor vehicle registration fees by DMV to AQMD in a timely manner. 4. AUDIT - Additionally, CONTRACTOR shall, at least once every two years, or within two years of the termination of the Contract if the term is less than two years, be subject to an audit by AQMD or its authorized representative to determine if the revenues received by CONTRACTOR were spent for the reduction of pollution from Motor Vehicles pursuant to the Clean Air Act of 1988. AQMD shall coordinate such audit through CONTRACTOR'S audit staff. If an amount is found to be inappropriately expended, AQMD may withhold revenue from CONTRACTOR in the amount equal to the amount which was inappropriately expended. Such withholding shall not be construed as AQMD'S sole remedy and shall not relieve CONTRACTOR of its obligation to perform under the terms of this Contract. t Exhibit "A," i Contract No. ML09011 5. REPORTING - CONTRACTOR shall submit reports to AQMD as outlined in Attachment 1 - Statement of Work. AQMD reserves the right to review, comment, and request changes to any report produced as a result of this Contract. 6. TERM - The term of this Contract is for seventy five (75) months from the date of execution by both parties, unless terminated earlier as provided for in Clause 7 below entitled Termination, extended by amendment of this Contract in writing, or unless all work is completed and a final report is submitted and approved by AQMD prior to the termination date. No work shall commence prior to the Contract start date, except at CONTRACTOR'S cost and risk, and no charges are authorized until this Contract is fully executed. Upon written request and with adequate justification from CONTRACTOR, the MSRC Contracts Administrator may extend the Contract up to an additional six months at no additional cost. Term extensions greater than six months must be reviewed and approved by the MSRC. 7. TERMINATION - In the event any party fails to comply with any term or condition of this Contract, or fails to provide the services in the manner agreed upon by the parties, including, but not limited to, the requirements of Attachment 1 - Statement of Work, this shall constitute a material breach of the Contract. The nonbreaching party shall have the sole and exclusive option either to notify the breaching party that it must cure this breach within fifteen (15) days or provide written notification of its intention to terminate this Contract with thirty (30) day's written notice. Notification shall be provided in the manner set forth in Clause 15 below, entitled - Notices. Termination shall not be the exclusive remedy of the nonbreaching party. The nonbreaching party reserves the right to seek any and all remedies provided by law. AQMD will reimburse CONTRACTOR for actual costs incurred (not to exceed the total Contract value), including all noncancellable commitments incurred in performance of this Contract through the effective date of termination for any reason other than breach. 8. EARLY TERMINATION—This Contract may be terminated early due to any of the following circumstances: A. The vehicles or equipment become inoperable through mechanical failure of components or systems directly related to the alternative fuel technology being utilized and such failure is not caused by CONTRACTOR'S negligence, misuse, or malfeasance. B. The fueling station becomes inoperable, and is either not technically able to be repaired, or is too costly to repair, and such failure is not caused by CONTRACTOR's negligence, misuse, or malfeasance. 9. INSURANCE —CONTRACTOR represents that it is permissibly self-insured and will maintain such self- 7- insurance in accordance with applicable provisions of California law throughout the term of this Contract. CONTRACTOR shall provide evidence of sufficient coverage during the term of this Contract and any extensions thereof that meet or exceed the minimum requirements set forth by the South Coast AQMD below. CONTRACTOR shall furnish certificate of self-insurance to: South Coast Air Quality Management District, Attn: Risk Management Office. The AQMD Contract Number shall be included on the face of the certificate. If CONTRACTOR fails to maintain the required insurance coverage, AQMD reserves the right to terminate the Contract or purchase such additional insurance and bill CONTRACTOR or deduct the cost thereof from any payments owed to CONTRACTOR. Minimum insurance coverages are as follows: A. Worker's compensation insurance in accordance with either California or other state's applicable statutory requirements. 2 Contract No. ML09011 B. General Liability insurance with a limit of at least$1,000,000 per occurrence, and $2,000,000 in general aggregate. C. Automobile Liability insurance with limits of at least$100,000 per person and $300,000 per accident for bodily injuries and $50,000 in property damage, or$1,000,000 combined single limit for bodily injury or property damage. 10. INDEMNIFICATION — CONTRACTOR agrees to hold harmless, defend, and indemnify, AQMD, its officers, employees, agents, representatives, and successors-in-interest against any and all loss, damage, cost, or expenses which AQMD, its officers, employees, agents, representatives, and successors-in-interest may incur or be required to pay by reason of any injury or property damage caused or incurred by CONTRACTOR, its employees, subcontractors, or agents in the performance of this Contract. 11. PAYMENT A. AQMD shall pay CONTRACTOR a Firm Fixed Price of Two Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($250,000) upon completion of the project on a reimbursement basis. Any funds not expended upon early contract termination or contract completion shall revert to the AB 2766 Discretionary Fund. Payment of charges shall be made by AQMD to CONTRACTOR within thirty (30) days after approval by AQMD of an itemized invoice prepared and furnished by CONTRACTOR. B. An invoice submitted to AQMD for payment must be prepared in duplicate, on company letterhead, and list AQMD'S contract number, period covered by invoice, and CONTRACTOR'S social security number or Employer Identification Number and submitted to: South Coast Air Quality Management District 21865 Copley Drive Diamond Bar, CA 917654178 Attn: Cynthia Ravenstein, MSRC Contract Administrator C. No funds shall be paid out to CONTRACTOR pursuant to this Contract, until the project described in Attachments 1 and 2 is completed and proof of completion is provided to AQMD. If the project described in Attachments 1 and 2 is not completed and satisfactory proof of completion is not provided to AQMD, no monies shall be due and payable to CONTRACTOR. Proof of completion shall include a Final Report detailing the project goals and accomplishments. D. Additional AB 2766 Discretionary Match Funds will not be available to fund project cost overruns. Any project cost overruns must be funded from other than AB 2766 Discretionary Funds. E. The Firm Fixed Price amount of this Contract shall not exceed the total AB 2766 Funds applied to the project described in Attachments 1, 2, and 3 of this Contract. F. If, at the completion of the Project described in Attachment 1, the vehicle expenditures and/or infrastructure expenditures are less than the Total Cost amount(s) contained in Attachment 2, the actual amount of AB 2766 Discretionary Funds reimbursed to CONTRACTOR shall be adjusted on a prorated basis as described in Attachment 2. G. CONTRACTOR must submit final invoice no later than ninety (90) days after the termination date of this Contract or invoice may not be paid. 12. MOBILE SOURCE EMISSION REDUCTION CREDITS (MSERCs) A. The MSRC has adopted a policy that no MSERCs resulting from AB 2766 Discretionary Funds may be generated and/or sold. 3 Contract No. MLO9011 B. CONTRACTOR has the opportunity to generate MSERCs as a by-product of the project if a portion of the air quality benefits attributable to the project resulted from other funding sources. These MSERCs, which are issued by AQMD, are based upon the quantified vehicle miles traveled (VMT) by project vehicles or other activity data as appropriate. Therefore, a portion of prospective MSERCs, generated as a result of AB 2766 Funds, must be retired. The portion of prospective credits funded by the AB 2766 program, and which are subject to retirement, shall be referred to as"AB 2766-MSERCs." C. The determination of AB 2766-MSERC's is to be prorated based upon the AB 2766 program's contribution to the cost associated with the air quality benefits. In the case where AB 2766 Discretionary Funds are used to pay for the full differential cost of a new alternative fuel vehicle or for the retrofitting or repowering of an existing vehicle, all MSERCs attributable to AB 2766 Discretionary Funds must be retired. The determination of AB 2766-MSERCs for infrastructure and other ancillary items is to be prorated based upon the AB 2766 program's contribution to the associated air quality benefits. Determination of the project's overall cost will be on a case-by-case basis at the time an MSERC application is submitted. AQMD staff, at the time an MSERC application is submitted, will calculate total MSERCs and retire the AB 2766-MSERCs. CONTRACTOR would then receive the balance of the MSERCs not associated with AB 2766 funding. 13. DISPLAY OF MSRC LOGO - CONTRACTOR agrees to permanently display one MSRC decal in a prominent location on each vehicle purchased pursuant to this Contract. CONTRACTOR also agrees to permanently display one MSRC decal in a prominent location on each fueling or charging station constructed or upgraded pursuant to this Contract. Decals will be provided by MSRC upon notification that subject fueling station equipment and/or vehicles are placed into service. Decals are approximately twelve (12) inches in height and eighteen (18) inches in width (Note: a smaller decal may be provided if CONTRACTOR demonstrates that application of the standard decal is not feasible). CONTRACTOR shall maintain decal for life of vehicle or equipment subject to this Contract. Should any decal become damaged, faded, or otherwise unreadable, CONTRACTOR shall request replacement decal from MSRC and apply new decal in the same or other prominent location. MSRC shall not be responsible for damage to paint or other vehicle surfaces arising from application or removal of decals. In addition, all promotional materials related to the project, including, but not limited to, press kits, brochures and signs shall include the MSRC logo. Press releases shall acknowledge MSRC financial support for the project. 14. ACCRUAL OF MILEAGE WITHIN SOUTH COAST AIR QUALITY DISTRICT — CONTRACTOR is obligated to comply with the geographical restriction requirements as follows: A. Each of the vehicles funded under this Contract must accrue at least 85% of its annual mileage or engine hours of operation within the geographical boundaries of the South Coast Air Quality Management District for a period of no less than five (5) years from the date the vehicle enters service (new vehicles) or returns to service (repowered vehicles). Should CONTRACTOR deviate from or fail to comply with this obligation, for reasons other than those stated in Clause B.A., CONTRACTOR shall reimburse AQMD for a prorated share of the funds provided for the vehicle as indicated in the table below: 5 year Operations Obligation Percentage of MSRC Funds Termination Occurs to-be Reimbursed Within Year 1 100% Between Years 1-2 80% Between Years 2-3 60% 4 Contract No. ML09011 -- Between Years 3-4 40% Between Years 4-5 20% After Year 5 0% B. The appropriate reimbursable amount shall be paid to AQMD within sixty (60) days from the date the vehicle ceases to operate in accordance with the geographical restriction. CONTRACTOR shall not be responsible for any reimbursement to AQMD if the obligation is terminated as a result from one or more reasons set forth in Clause 8.A. C. Should CONTRACTOR sell, lease, transfer, assign or otherwise divest itself of the vehicles during the five year period referred to in clause 14.A, notice shall be provided to AQMD no less than 30 days preceding the sale, lease, transfer, or assignment is effectuated. The agreement effectuating the sale, lease, transfer or assignment shall state that the AQMD is an intended third-party beneficiary of the agreement and shall include the following requirement: the obligation to accrue mileage within the South Coast Air Quality Management District shall be a continuing obligation of the subsequent purchaser, lessee, transferee, successor in interest, heir or assign and shall remain in full force and effect until the expiration of the five year operation period. This obligation shall be passed down to any subsequent purchaser, lessee or transferee during this five year term and AQMD shall be an intended third-party beneficiary of any subsequent agreement. Upon receiving notice of any subsequent sale, lease, transfer, assignment or other divestiture, AQMD may elect to either require the reimbursement specified in Clause 14.A and 14.B, or require the subsequent purchaser, lessee, transferee or assignee to comply with the continuing obligation to operate the vehicle for a period of no less than five (5) years from the date the vehicle entered service (new vehicles) or re-service (re-powered vehicles).

AQMD is authorized under State Health & Safety Code Section 44225 (Assembly Bill (AB) 2766) to levy a fee on motor vehicles for the purpose of reducing air pollution from such vehicles and to implement the California Clean Air Act. B. Under AB 2766 the AQMD'S Governing Board has authorized the imposition of the statutorily set motor vehicle fee. By taking such action the State's Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) is required to collect such fee and remit it periodically to AQMD. C. AB 2766 further mandates that thirty (30) percent of such vehicle registration fees be placed by AQMD into a separate account for the sole purpose of implementing and monitoring programs to reduce air pollution from motor vehicles. D. AB 2766 creates a regional Mobile Source Air Pollution Reduction Review Committee (MSRC) to develop a work program to fund projects from the separate account. Pursuant to approval of the work program by AQMD'S Governing Board, AQMD Board authorized a contract with CONTRACTOR for services described in Attachment 1 -Statement of Work, expressly incorporated herein by this reference and made a part hereof of this Contract.

DMV FEES - CONTRACTOR acknowledges that AQMD cannot guarantee the amount of fees to be collected under AB 2766 will be sufficient to fund this Contract. CONTRACTOR further acknowledges that AQMD'S receipt of funds is contingent on the timely remittance by State's DMV. AQMD assumes no responsibility for the collection and remittance of motor vehicle registration fees by DMV to AQMD in a timely manner. 4. AUDIT - Additionally, CONTRACTOR shall, at least once every two years, or within two years of the termination of the Contract if the term is less than two years, be subject to an audit by AQMD or its authorized representative to determine if the revenues received by CONTRACTOR were spent for the reduction of pollution from Motor Vehicles pursuant to the Clean Air Act of 1988. AQMD shall coordinate such audit through CONTRACTOR'S audit staff. If an amount is found to be inappropriately expended, AQMD may withhold revenue from CONTRACTOR in the amount equal to the amount which was inappropriately expended.

No funds shall be paid out to CONTRACTOR pursuant to this Contract, until the project described in Attachments 1 and 2 is completed and proof of completion is provided to AQMD. If the project described in Attachments 1 and 2 is not completed and satisfactory proof of completion is not provided to AQMD, no monies shall be due and payable to CONTRACTOR. Proof of completion shall include a Final Report detailing the project goals and accomplishments. D. Additional AB 2766 Discretionary Match Funds will not be available to fund project cost overruns. Any project cost overruns must be funded from other than AB 2766 Discretionary Funds. E. The Firm Fixed Price amount of this Contract shall not exceed the total AB 2766 Funds applied to the project described in Attachments 1, 2, and 3 of this Contract F. If, at the completion of the Project described in Attachment 1, the vehicle expenditures and/or infrastructure expenditures are less than the Total Cost amount(s) contained in Attachment 2, the actual amount of AB 2766 Discretionary Funds reimbursed to CONTRACTOR shall be adjusted on a prorated basis as described in Attachment 2. G. CONTRACTOR must submit final invoice no later than ninety (90) days after the termination date of this Contract or invoice may not be paid. 12. MOBILE SOURCE EMISSION REDUCTION CREDITS (MSERCs) A. The MSRC has adopted a policy that no MSERCs resulting from AB 2766 Discretionary Funds may be generated and/or sold. 3 Contract No ML09011 B. CONTRACTOR has the opportunity to generate MSERCs as a by-product of the project if a portion of the air quality benefits attributable to the project resulted from other funding sources. These MSERCs, which are issued by AQMD, are based upon the quantified vehicle miles traveled (VMT) by project vehicles or other activity data as appropriate. Therefore, a portion of prospective MSERCs, generated as a result of AB 2766 Funds, must be retired. The portion of prospective credits funded by the AB 2766 program, and which are subject to retirement, shall be referred to as"AB 2766-MSERCs." C. The determination of AB 2766-MSERC's is to be prorated based upon the AB 2766 program's contribution to the cost associated with the air quality benefits. In the case where AB 2766 Discretionary Funds are used to pay for the full differential cost of a new alternative fuel vehicle or for the retrofitting or repowering of an existing vehicle, all MSERCs attributable to AB 2766 Discretionary Funds must be retired. The determination of AB 2766-MSERCs for infrastructure and other ancillary items is to be prorated based upon the AB 2766 program's contribution to the associated air quality benefits. Determination of the project's overall cost will be on a case-by-case basis at the time an MSERC application is submitted. AQMD staff, at the time an MSERC application is submitted, will calculate total MSERCs and retire the AB 2766-MSERCs. CONTRACTOR would then receive the balance of the MSERCs not associated with AB 2766 funding. 13. DISPLAY OF MSRC LOGO - CONTRACTOR agrees to permanently display one MSRC decal in a prominent location on each vehicle purchased pursuant to this Contract. CONTRACTOR also agrees to permanently display one MSRC decal in a prominent location on each fueling or charging station constructed or upgraded pursuant to this Contract. Decals will be provided by MSRC upon notification that subject fueling station equipment and/or vehicles are placed into service. Decals are approximately twelve C (12) inches in height and eighteen (18) inches in width (Note: a smaller decal may be provided if CONTRACTOR demonstrates that application of the standard decal is not feasible). CONTRACTOR shall maintain decal for life of vehicle or equipment subject to this Contract. Should any decal become damaged, faded, or otherwise unreadable, CONTRACTOR shall request replacement decal from MSRC and apply new decal in the same or other prominent location. MSRC shall not be responsible for damage to paint or other vehicle surfaces arising from application or removal of decals. In addition, all promotional materials related to the project, including, but not limited to, press kits, brochures and signs shall include the MSRC logo. Press releases shall acknowledge MSRC financial support for the project. 14.

No funds shall be paid out to CONTRACTOR pursuant to this Contract, until the project described in Attachments 1 and 2 is completed and proof of completion is provided to AQMD. If the project described in Attachments 1 and 2 is not completed and satisfactory proof of completion is not provided to AQMD, no monies shall be due and payable to CONTRACTOR. Proof of completion shall include a Final Report detailing the project goals and accomplishments. D. Additional AB 2766 Discretionary Match Funds will not be available to fund project cost overruns. Any project cost overruns must be funded from other than AB 2766 Discretionary Funds. E.

If, at the completion of the Project described in Attachment 1, the vehicle expenditures and/or infrastructure expenditures are less than the Total Cost amount(s) contained in Attachment 2, the actual amount of AB 2766 Discretionary Funds reimbursed to CONTRACTOR shall be adjusted on a prorated basis as described in Attachment 2. G. CONTRACTOR must submit final invoice no later than ninety (90) days after the termination date of this Contract or invoice may not be paid. 12. MOBILE SOURCE EMISSION REDUCTION CREDITS (MSERCs) A. The MSRC has adopted a policy that no MSERCs resulting from AB 2766 Discretionary Funds may be generated and/or sold. 3 Contract No. ML09011 _ B. CONTRACTOR has the opportunity to generate MSERCs as a by-product of the project if a portion of the air quality benefits attributable to the project resulted from other funding sources. These MSERCs, which are issued by AQMD, are based upon the quantified vehicle miles traveled (VMT) by project vehicles or other activity data as appropriate. Therefore, a portion of prospective MSERCs, generated as a result of AB 2766 Funds, must be retired. The portion of prospective credits funded by the AB 2766 program, and which are subject to retirement, shall be referred to as"AB 2766-MSERCs." C. The determination of AB 2766-MSERC's is to be prorated based upon the AB 2766 program's contribution to the cost associated with the air quality benefits. In the case where AB 2766 Discretionary Funds are used to pay for the full differential cost of a new alternative fuel vehicle or for the retrofitting or repowering of an existing vehicle, all MSERCs attributable to AB 2766 Discretionary Funds must be retired. The determination of AB 2766-MSERCs for infrastructure and other ancillary items is to be prorated based upon the AB 2766 program's contribution to the associated air quality benefits. Determination of the project's overall cost will be on a case-by-case basis at the time an MSERC application is submitted. AQMD staff, at the time an MSERC application is submitted, will calculate total MSERCs and retire the AB 2766-MSERCs. CONTRACTOR would then receive the balance of the MSERCs not associated with AB 2766 funding. 13. DISPLAY OF MSRC LOGO - CONTRACTOR agrees to permanently display one MSRC decal in a prominent location on each vehicle purchased pursuant to this Contract. CONTRACTOR also agrees to permanently display one MSRC decal in a prominent location on each fueling or charging station constructed or upgraded pursuant to this Contract. Decals will be provided by MSRC upon notification that subject fueling station equipment and/or vehicles are placed into service. Decals are approximately twelve C (12) inches in height and eighteen (18) inches in width (Note: a smaller decal may be provided if CONTRACTOR demonstrates that application of the standard decal is not feasible). CONTRACTOR shall maintain decal for life of vehicle or equipment subject to this Contract. Should any decal become damaged, faded, or otherwise unreadable, CONTRACTOR shall request replacement decal from MSRC and apply new decal in the same or other prominent location. MSRC shall not be responsible for damage to paint or other vehicle surfaces arising from application or removal of decals. In addition, all promotional materials related to the project, including, but not limited to, press kits, brochures and signs shall include the MSRC logo. Press releases shall acknowledge MSRC financial support for the project. 14.

The agreement effectuating the sale, lease, transfer or assignment shall state that the AQMD is an intended third-party beneficiary of the agreement and shall include the following requirement: the obligation to accrue mileage within the South Coast Air Quality Management District shall be a continuing obligation of the subsequent purchaser, lessee, transferee, successor in interest, heir or assign and shall remain in full force and effect until the expiration of the five year operation period. This obligation shall be passed down to any subsequent purchaser, lessee or transferee during this five year term and AQMD shall be an intended third-party beneficiary of any subsequent agreement.
