15 of 171 FTA Quarterly Review Meeting Charlotte Area Transit System December 8, 2016 f) Contingency Status As part of the BLE Risk and Contingency Management Plan (Rev. 0) for Entry into Final Design, Cost and Schedule contingency drawdown schedules were developed with the planned contingency draw down and minimum contingency values for project milestones. Following is the history of the contingency drawdown.

 At the start of Milestone 1, Approval for Entry into Final Design (July 2012), the BLE contingency level was $224.3 million, as reflected in Rev. 5 of the 65% cost estimate (FFGA Baseline Cost Estimate).  At of the start of Milestone 2, FFGA Executed (October 2012), the BLE contingency level was $217.7 million, well above the minimum Phase Start contingency value of $178.7 million.  At the start of Milestone 3 (December 2013), the BLE contingency level was $109.0 million, well above the Phase Start contingency value of $153.2 million. As of 5/14/14, the Project will complete Milestone 3 (System Design Complete) and Milestone 4 (40% of Contracts Executed).  At the start of Milestone 5 (February 2014), Complete NS Relocation to Airport, the BLE contingency was $223.5 million, well above the minimum Phase Start contingency value of $127.67 million.  At the start of Milestone 6 (April 2015), Complete Utility Relocations in Segment B, the BLE contingency was $172.2 million, well above the minimum Phase Start contingency value of $110.6 million.  At the start of Milestone 7 (December 2015), 100% of Major Contracts Executed, the BLE contingency was $162.7 million, well above the minimum Phase Start contingency value of $85.1 million.  The project has now moved into Milestone 8 (October 2016), Complete Trackwork – Seg A1 and Yard, with an estimated contingency of $123.4 million, well above the minimum Phase Start contingency value of $68.1 million.

The Current Cost Estimate and Contingency Levels (columns A and B) reflect actual bids, use of contingency for change orders and contract amendments, and cost estimates for any remaining work (primarily Landscaping). The Estimated Remaining Contingency (column H) also reflects pending and approved changes (columns C and D) by the Change Control Board which have not yet been incorporated into the Project Budget in e-Builder. Based on the most current appraisal and settlement values, CATS currently estimates $1.3 million of contingency will be used to settle real estate acquisitions (column E).

In addition, FTA requested that CATS show in the contingency report the use of unallocated contingency for the non-federal Project Changes ($20 million), as well as the potential savings in federal funds ($20 million). Therefore, those line items have been added to the contingency chart, along with a note clarifying that the potential savings is at completion of the project, and CATS would identify additional local funds to match the federal funds if needed.

The following budget changes were approved by the CCB in the last quarter:  STV Contract Amendment ($1,900,000)  Norfolk Southern Reimbursement ($2,000,000)  LRV on-vehicle validators for passes ($1,300,000).

a) Schedule Status / Milestone Schedule Schedule BL 95 is the update of the Master Schedule for the BLE project with a data date of September 30, 2016. The Revenue Service Date remained August 1, 2017. In BL 95, the critical path is contained within the Track & Systems Contractor’s work to install the Station Communication Cabinets (SCCs) and Fiber Optic. The Critical Path begins with the procurement and delivery of the generators for the SCCs. While that is occurring the Contractor is arranging for temporary power to be installed prior to installation of the SCCs. Once the SCCs are installed the path shifts to installation of Fiber Optic, particularly in Segment C, ending with splicing fiber optic at the JW Clay SCC. The path then moves to integrated testing, ICT #9, Systems Integrated Testing, Pre-Revenue Service, and finally Revenue Service.

The Civil A Contractor completed work allowing the Track & Systems Contractor to begin work in Segment A2, however during a field meeting with Track & Systems the need for a moment slab was identified, to be installed between the end of wall A16 and the southern end of the 36th Street light rail bridge and additional slope on the north end of the station. There was a concern that there isn’t enough of a stable area prior to the slope to be able to install the cable trough. The Civil A Contractor was given direction to proceed with work at the end of September and is working to complete this by the end of October. Until this is completed, the Track & Systems Contractor cannot install cable trough in that particular area. They are working on both sides of the area to ensure minimal loss in productive work time. It should be noted that the work by Civil A is likely to delay Track and Systems from completing the cable trough in this area and could cause a delay to Track and Systems ICT #9. The impact of this delay is still being evaluated.

The Track & Systems Contractor completed testing from 7th Street to the North Yard on 10/2/16. The Contractor still had some items that need to be addressed while the paper work was being completed to allow CATS Operations to begin moving Light Rail Vehicles within the area and store them in the North Yard the end of October.

In the BL 95 update, the Civil A Contractor completed installation of the panels for MSE Walls A33 and A34, this allowed for the completion of the backfill and grading for the subgrade between 36th Street and Craighead Bridge. The Civil B/C Contractor continued working across Segment B on driveways and sidewalk as well as installation of the leaf railing, painting girders and associated work to begin final paving. The Station Finishes Contractor continued working on the topping slabs and began setting the station electrical cabinets at the stations. The Track & Systems Contractor continued working on track in Segment C and OCS in Segment B and Segment A2 (from Sugar Creek to Old Concord Road).

27 of 171 FTA Quarterly Review Meeting Charlotte Area Transit System December 8, 2016 BLE OVERALL SCHEDULE

28 of 171 FTA Quarterly Review Meeting Charlotte Area Transit System December 8, 2016 b) Schedule Concerns / Corrective Action 1. Civil A The Civil A Contractor completed MSE Walls A33 and A34 in early October 2016. At that point, they began to focus on completing the trackbed between 36th Street and Craighead Bridge. The Track & Systems Contractor began working on both sides of this area while the Civil A Contractor completed work. During a field meeting with Track & Systems in late September, two issues were identified which required the Civil A Contractor to construct a moment slab from the end of Wall A16 up to the Light Rail Bridge at 36th Street on the Track 2 side of the light rail and extend the embankment on the north end of the station, north of Wall A30 on the Track 2 side. These adjustments were necessary to ensure that the cable trough could be properly installed and that drainage from the light rail tracks would not impact the NS property. This is a very critical item as it is needed prior to installation of the cable trough in that area. Two Change Directives were issued to the Civil A Contractor to begin work, one on 9/29/16 for the moment slab and one for the embankment modification on 10/17/16. The impact of the moment slab is still being evaluated and will be realized in the BL 96 update.

The Contractor continued working towards completion of ICT #2, Freight Sub-ballast. The Contractor completed the gravity walls for A19 and A31 which allowed them to complete backfilling and begin sub- ballast installation in October 2016. The Contractor is working towards completion that will allow NS to give their Contractor the notice to proceed to begin the freight track relocation. It is important that the Contractor completes ICT #2 as soon as possible as NS has expressed that they will not release their Contractor to begin work until all inspections and punch list items have been completed. The Contractor is working with TGS and NS to identify any underground cables that have not been identified after the Contractor accidently damaged an unmarked signal cable that was not identified. NS has mobilized some of their crews to identify any remaining cables prior to the Contractor continuing any remaining excavation in the area. This could cause a potential delay to ICT #2 if there is a delay in identifying the cables. The freight track relocation and re-opening 36th Street, which includes walls A19 and A31 and the NS Bridge, remains a concern in the Civil A contract. Because of efforts made earlier in the project, the activities related to the freight track relocation and opening of 36th Street do not affect Revenue Service. However, these are important for other parties including CDOT and NS, as well as final completion for the Civil A Contractor. NS has indicated that Civil A must be complete prior to giving the NTP to their Contractor to do the freight track relocation. NS has stated that they will complete the cutover after their busy season, typically between November, December, and January. Once this is done, the Civil A Contractor can complete their work to reopen 36th Street.

The graphic below represents the interface between Civil A and Track & Systems in regards to the completion of Segment A2. The Track & Systems Contractor began work in the South portion of Segment A2 while the Civil A Contractor worked to complete work between 36th Street and Craighead.

ICT #7 continues to be delayed due to the drainage that needs to be installed that is in conflict with the feeder conduits for Duke and AT&T. This is very important for Track & Systems to be able to do local testing at TPSS #13 prior to the integrated testing.

The graphic below represents the interface between Civil A completion of the conduits for TPSS #13 and Track & Systems work related to installation and testing of TPSS #13.

2. Track & Systems On 10/2/16, the Track & Systems Contractor completed the testing needed for CATS Operations to be able to run LRVs from 7th Street to the North Yard. The Contractor now has items that need to be completed in parallel with final safety certification before LRVs can actually utilize the tracks. Then CATS Operations will shift to storing Light Rail Vehicles in the North Yard.

The SBLRF Contractor Completed work for Phase 1 and is working with Track and Systems to resolve punchlist items. The Contractor is also working to get a permanent CO. The Table below shows the completion by the SBLRF Contractor and the work that the Track and Systems Contractor will need to complete prior to ICT #9.

SBLRF Phase 1 interface to Track & Systems completion of the ROCC and Communications Testing, SIT, Pre-Revenue and Revenue Service

*Fragnet from BL 95 Master Schedule Update – float displayed is relative to the current T&S ICT #9 of 3/1/17.

As previously stated, there continues to be a major concern in regards to the Contractor beginning and completing communications and signal work. To date, no communications work has been completed on the stations and only signal work completed in Segment A1. The Contractor has completed cable trough north of Sugar Creek Road and began installing signal cable north from that point and into Segment B, however, the Fiber Backbone that will need to be installed has yet to start. Based on recent meetings, it is expected that the Contractor will mobilize on site to install the Fiber Backbone in late October 2016 and begin installation to the Central Communications House (CCH). This work must be completed before any testing to the CCH can begin; however, it is assumed that the Contractor can do local testing in the meantime. There is a concern that with the Contractor’s continued delay in submitting items related to the ROCC and the CCH and completing Factory Acceptance Tests of equipment that there could be a critical delay that will impact the system wide testing that is to occur prior to ICT #9. The Contractor has provided assurances that they are committed to meeting dates that have been outlined in meetings with the City. The City remains concerned that the Contractor will incur further delays. While the CCH does not show as one of the top five near critical item in the analysis below, it should be noted that this is a near critical item to the completion of testing and ICT #9, and has less than a week of float related to completion of ICT #9 on 3/1/16.

T&S Critical Path Analysis An analysis has been conducted on the Track & Systems schedule to determine the five most critical paths to completion of ICT #9. As stated in the summary, the primary critical path is related to communications work at the stations. In the BL 94 Schedule Update, the Master Schedule indicated that the critical path of the program went through the Track and Systems Contractor’s work to remove and replace the frogs at several areas across the alignment. This is not on the critical or near critical paths detailed below, however

30 of 171 FTA Quarterly Review Meeting Charlotte Area Transit System December 8, 2016 there is less than two weeks of float related to a 3/1/17 ICT #9. The reason that this is no longer on the critical path is that the initial CPM that the Contractor submitted had an activity that was removed that seemed to be a duplicate. This allowed for several days of float on the replacement of the frogs.

The Primary Critical Path begins with the Contractor procuring and delivering the generators for the SCCs. While that activity is occurring, the Contractor is arranging for temporary power at the following stations: 9th Street, Parkwood, 36th Street, Old Concord Road, Tom Hunter, and University City Blvd. Upon getting temporary power at University City Blvd the Contractor will begin installation of the SCC. The first install will be at University City Blvd, followed by McCullough, JW Clay, and finally UNC Charlotte Station. Once the SCC is installed at UNC Charlotte Station, the Contractor will pull fiber and install communication devices for the UNC Charlotte Comfort Station, followed by installing and splicing fiber for Central Instrument House (CIH) #17 to UCB SCC, McCullough SCC to UCB SCC and JW Clay SCC to McCullough SCC. The Contractor will then conduct integrated communications testing, followed by ICT #9, Systems Integrated Testing and Pre- Revenue Service, and finally Revenue Service.

The first near critical path begins with the Crossing Gate Foundation Installation followed by installing the gates, pulling cable, and terminating track crossing at the following intersections: Arrowhead Drive, Owen Blvd, Tom Hunter Road, Orr Road, Orchard Trace Lane and UCB Garage. The path then picks up testing of the at-grade crossings at UCB Garage, Shopping Center Drive, and Tom Hunter Road followed by ICT #9, Systems Integrated Testing and Pre-Revenue Service, and finally Revenue Service.

The second near critical path begins with installing OCS Northbound then Southbound from UCB Station to McCullough station. Next the Contractor will install OCS Northbound McCullough to JW Clay, followed by installing OCS Northbound and Southbound from JW Clay to the End of the Line. The Contractor then conducts Dynamic Testing from CIH #17 to CIH #18, CIH #10 to CIH #13, to CIH #13 to CIH #15, followed by Full System LRV Integration Testing, ICT #9, Systems Integrated Testing and Pre-Revenue Service, and finally Revenue Service.

The third near critical path begins with the moment slab being installed at 36th Street. The Civil A Contractor is expediting work to allow full access as soon as possible. Once the Civil A Contractor completes the moment slab, the Track and Systems Contractor will complete the track work and trough installation on the Track 2 side. Then the Contractor will install OCS, followed by Dynamic Testing of CIH #13 to CIH #15 and Full System LRV Integration Testing, ICT #9, Systems Integrated Testing and Pre-Revenue Service, and finally Revenue Service. The critical path analysis does not project delay the Track and Systems Contractor might face due to the Civil contractor’s time to complete the moment slab. The Track and Systems contractor is mitigating this delay by working in Segment B and Segment C. The moment slab impact will be incorporated into the Track and Systems schedule next month, when the full impact is known.

The fourth near critical path has the Contractor installing positive and negative feeder cables at the following locations (in order): TPSS #14, TPSS #15, TPSS #16, TPSS #17, and TPSS #18 followed by testing TPSS #18. The Contractor then conducts Dynamic Testing from CIH #17 to CIH #18, CIH #10 to CIH #13, to CIH #13 to CIH #15, followed by Full System LRV Integration Testing, ICT #9, Systems Integrated Testing and Pre-Revenue Service, and finally Revenue Service.

4. Station Finishes The Station Finishes Contractor completed the SEC/SCC Pads at all locations as of early October 2016. This allows the Track & Systems Contractor to begin installing the Station Communications Cabinets (SCC). The Station Finishes Contractor is still working with the Track & Systems Contractor to clean out any debris prior to the installation of the SCC. The table below represents the interface between Station Finishes completing the SEC/SCC Concrete pad and the Track & Systems current start date.

*Fragnet from BL 95 Master Schedule Update – float displayed is relative to the current T&S ICT #9 of 3/1/17.

In addition to the critical nature of the SEC/SCC Pad, the Topping Slabs are also key in allowing the TVM Contractor to install the TVMs at the stations. To date, the Contractor has completed all topping slabs with the exception of JW Clay (to be completed by the end of October), 9th Street, and 36th Street. The Station Finishes Contractor is working to complete electrical work at the stations and other work around the station. The primary concern is the need for the generator and automatic transfer switch from the Track & Systems Contractor so the Station Finishes Contractor can complete the electrical work and establish permanent power at each station. Currently the Contractor has assumed that these will be delivered by 12/1/16.

Below is a table to show when the Contractor is expecting to complete the SEC / SCC pads to allow Track & Systems to install their SCC equipment, the completion of the topping slabs, and the completion of each station. The overall completion of each station is important to track to ensure they are completed prior to pre-revenue operations.

5. Vertical Contracts The SBLRF Upfit work was split into 3 contracts, the first being the upfit of the ROCC. The Contractor was given an NTP on 7/11/16. The Contractor completed their work on 9/14/16, allowing the Track & Systems

33 of 171 FTA Quarterly Review Meeting Charlotte Area Transit System December 8, 2016 Contractor to commence work prior to Integrated Communications testing. Below is a graphic showing the interface between the SBLRF Phase 1 Contractor and Track & Systems.

c) Schedule Contingency Utilization As part of the BLE Risk and Contingency Management Plan (Rev. 0) for Entry into Final Design, a Schedule contingency drawdown schedule was developed with the planned contingency draw down and minimum contingency values for project milestones. The schedule contingency included a total of 359 calendar days. With the completion of the Track and Systems contract amendment, 72 days were recovered in BL86 schedule update. Track and systems latest schedule update incorporates mitigation efforts, resulting in an August 1, 2017 target revenue service date in BL95. The current remaining contingency is now 242 calendar days.

Internal schedule workshops have been held. Key interfaces have been identified, and are being tracked. The contract amendment with Track and Systems to resequence the schedule was finalized in December 2015.

Multiple critical and near-critical paths for T&S have been identified and are being monitored closely. Weekly meetings are being set up with Balfour Beatty Rail's Executive Vice-President. On 7/17/2014, CATS reported to FTA it was experiencing issues with Balfour Beatty related to Streetcar and BLE contracts. FTA requested that Balfour Beatty be added to the risk register. On the BLE CIV-A and TRK/SYS contract, Balfour Beatty's submittals have been slow and CIV-A reported significant delays. CATS has informed Balfour Beatty of the high profile of this project and meetings have been held with executives at Balfour Beatty. A partnering workshop was held with Balfour Beatty Balfour Beatty construction issues (BLE 10.00- Infrastructure/Blythe JV on October 9-10, 2014, and with Balfour Beatty Rail (Track/Systems) on December 4-5, 2014.

BBR (T&S) revised their Baseline schedule, with a sequence that would work Segment A1, Segment A3 (new), Segment B, Segment C then back to Segment A2. In the latest schedule update BL94, the RSD is now August 1, 2017 due to schedule mitigation efforts by Track & Systems. This risk is being mitigated by a revision to the construction schedule that changes the relationship between the NS freight track relocation and light rail construction. The new Construction of the NS Line Relocation and construction sequence revises the schedule logic by allowing the LRV track bed to be installed prior to completion of the freight track relocation.

Completion Time (ICT) process has been developed for areas in which a contractor is handing off completed work to another contractor. The process involves both contractors agreeing to scope of completed work prior to ICT completion dates. Survey and as-builts are being shared between contracts. Monthly internal Construction Manager (CATS)/Resident Engineer (HNTB) meetings are being held to coordinate important work items that either effect critical path or follow on contracts. The contractors are also scheduling coordination meetings with other contractors. With all major contracts now underway, CATS/HNTB hold contractor coordination meetings as necessary to coordinate access/material storage/follow-on work. Critical interfaces have been identified and are being monitored on a weekly basis. There may be difficulties in implementing necessary changes/additions to the Rail The ROCC will be temporarily relocated to the 2nd floor of the VMF, so the BLE contractor will have unrestricted access to the existing ROCC to install the new systems and Operations Control Center (ROCC) and the test/commission without impacting the daily operation of CATS.

77 of 171 FTA Quarterly Review Meeting Charlotte Area Transit System December 8, 2016 c) Before and After Study The “Before” technical memorandum documenting the results of the “Before” Origin-Destination study has been completed and was submitted to FTA. d) Bus-Rail Integration Plan CATS contracted with Nelson & Nygaard (N&N) to study existing bus routes and develop a Bus-Rail Integration Plan. N&N provided CATS with two scenarios bus route scenarios. The scenarios were developed and adjusted based upon the feedback received from CATS. The two bus route scenarios contain route and adjustments and modifications that allow access to the BLE.  Scenario A modifies and adjusts bus routes. The route proposals result in an approximate 30,000 reduction in total service hours.  Scenario B modifies and adjusts bus routes. The route proposals result in no increase in total service hours.

CATS elected to pursue the Scenario B as the preferred Bus-Rail Integration Plan. As part of the public outreach process, CATS and N&N will provide passengers and residents with information on proposed bus routes and services modifications. CATS and N&N will conduct public meetings to receive feedback on the proposals. CATS and N&N will attend seven meetings by 10/15/16. Additional public meetings will be scheduled throughout the month of November. These meetings will give passengers and residents the opportunity to provide feedback on the route proposals. CATS will evaluate the feedback received as part of the public meeting process and make service adjustment and modification as necessary. N&N initiated the process of developing Title VI analysis for the required bus routes. The Title VI drafts will be based on bus route changes within Scenario B and will be completed at the conclusion of the public meetings. 8.0 Design a) Design Update All 100% design plans have been completed. 9.0 Construction See the following construction progress reports.

88 of 171 FTA Quarterly Review Meeting Charlotte Area Transit System December 8, 2016 10.0 Third Party Coordination a) Norfolk Southern (NS) The railroad’s engineering and inspection consultant (TGS) participates in the weekly construction meetings. All contractor submittals in the NS right-of-way are sent to NS for review and approval. Management conference calls are also scheduled monthly to keep all parties briefed on the project status. The 10/13/16 conference call focused on the Civil A schedule to turn over roadbed to NS as well as NS’s Freight Track Relocation tentative construction schedule. Also discussed were AT&T and Duke encroachment permit applications to NS, temporary drainage conditions to allow cable trough to be completed in the vicinity of 36th Street and upcoming NS outages. b) UNC Charlotte CATS, NCDOT and UNC Charlotte held their monthly construction coordination update meetings on 8/15/16, 9/16/16 and 10/17/16. Discussion during the last meeting was primarily focused on blocking out parking spots after a UNC Charlotte football game so the substation could be placed on 11/13/16. UNC Charlotte is in agreement with this plan. c) Utilities Duke Energy  Duke has relocated into the duct bank at UNC Charlotte and removed poles from the area around the JW Clay Pedestrian Bridge Extension. Duke will schedule the removal of overhead lines and poles after traffic signal feeds are transferred onto the underground electrical system.  Duke has raised several overhead crossings over N. Tryon Street in Segments B and C that did not provide adequate clearance over the BLE OCS. A few of those crossings require further attention from Duke before OCS lines are energized.  The City executed street lighting contracts with Duke, who is now procuring materials and bidding installation contracts. Duke intends to begin light installations at the UCB Parking Garage and Old Concord Road Park and Ride in December. Larger installation along N. Tryon Street and Brevard Street are scheduled to begin in January. BLE is checking the lighting conduits installed by Civil B/C to ensure they are ready for Duke’s contractor and out of the way of upcoming tree plantings.

AT&T Local Coordination  AT&T relocated facilities at Clark Blvd. that were inadvertently omitted from AT&T’s final design. The relocation allowed for the removal of a Duke pole that Duke no longer occupies.  AT&T provided backup documentation supporting invoices for BLE relocations in July. CATS determined the documentation to be generally adequate but requested some additional information. AT&T has not responded since July. Overall AT&T relocation costs appear to be within the range of previous BLE estimates. d) NCDOT On 8/15/16, 9/16/16, and 10/17/16, CATS and NCDOT held their monthly construction coordination meetings. A majority of the October meeting focused on the TPSS #17 traffic control plan. TPSS#17 is to be placed under the WT Harris Bridge and will require the closing of a lane to perform this activity. BBR will submit a signed and sealed traffic control plan that will be approved by NCDOT prior to placement. NCDOT stated they will need a 10 day public notification period prior to traffic control going into place. The Civil A work that involved NCDOT is completed so no Civil A report was given.

Quality Assurance - Materials Testing, Special Inspections and Observations The Kleinfelder team is operating with 7 full-time field technicians, 1 full-time manager, 2 part-time managers, 1 part-time document control staff member and a number of part-time field technicians to accommodate the activity and coverage for all active contracts. Kleinfelder continues to adjust their staff as major work elements on the project are completed and milestones are realized. Brief descriptions of Kleinfelder’s QA/QC activities are outlined below:  Soil Subgrade Observations  Field Density Testing (Conventional and Nuclear)  Concrete Sampling and Testing (Structural and Incidental)  Dynamic Cone Penetrometer (DCP) Testing  Drilled-In Pile Observations  Special Inspections

Kleinfelder field staff members maintain direct communication with the Contractor’s representatives concerning deficient work as it occurs or is identified in the field and issues are maintained on deficiency logs.

Special Inspections (Mecklenburg County required inspections) continued in September at the following project locations—CIV-A: 36th Street Station members (reinforced concrete), the JWC & SCK parking garages (reinforced concrete, welding, masonry, excavation/fill & precast concrete erection), STA: 9th and 36th Street and Tom Hunter stations (reinforced concrete, welding, HS Bolting and Steel Frame), and NYB (HS Bolting and Steel Frame, reinforced concrete, and masonry). Also during September, Kleinfelder representatives continued their coordination efforts with Station Finishes canopy fabricator--McDonald Machine and Fabrication facility located in Weatherford, Texas--to accommodate Mecklenburg County Special Inspections requirements for fabrication in a non-certified plant. McDonald Machine and Fabrication is Station Finishes manufacturer for the canopies that will be installed at the 9th Street Station. The certified special inspector performed ultra-sonic testing on welded connections which have all successfully passed. A final visit to verify previously painted welds will be made in October. Field reports for this work are uploaded to e-Builder and the Mecklenburg County Code Enforcement database and sent via email to the Design Professional in Responsible Charge.

CIV-A still has unresolved issues, cathodic protection acceptance testing for crossings at North Yard, and Sugar Creek are still pending. Acceptance testing was also performed on a cathodic protection system installed on ductile iron pipe installed as part of the Old Concord Road Park and Ride contract. Test stations and terminal boards were not installed at the time of the testing and Kleinfelder’s testers were unable to verify adequacy of the installed system; re-testing is required.

Concrete testing was performed for 36th Street Station members, 36th Street Gravity wall member, Wall A25 members, pedestrian bridge extension slab, MSE leveling pads and coping, slab on grade, OCS and camera pole foundations, decorative paving, light pole bases, column block outs, platform sub & topping slabs, and various incidental structures such as stair treads, curb/gutter and sidewalks. Twenty-eight day compressive strengths not meeting minimum requirements are documented in NCRs—0 NCRs in September, 0 in October (Note: see NCR-18 for JWC).

Project quality records provided by the material testing consultant consisting of field reports, laboratory reports, test result summaries (see below), and deficiency logs are uploaded to the e-Builder project database.

The construction contract will remain open until such time that all work including open items, punch list items, and any warranty items are completed. b. Rail to Earth Resistance Test. The contractor has performed troubleshooting and has made additional repairs since July 2015. The repairs were completed and retesting occurred on November 18, 2015. The test results were better but not acceptable. Retesting occurred on April 17 and 18, 2016. Field results show that a passing rate was not achieved. The contractor performed repairs at the Caldwell intersection special trackwork and at the Hawthorne end of line special trackwork prior. Additional stray current testing was performed on August 15-17, 2016. The report was received in September 2016. The data was analyzed and the report was formally deemed acceptable on November 2, 2016. This closes the open items associated with Rail to Earth Testing. c. Switch Heater Installation. The Contractor installed the original switch heater on the Blue Line in mid-September 2015. The heater assembly was tested in early October 2015 and although functional had to be reconfigured to meet specifications. The supplier agreed to send additional parts to install in the switch heater controller cabinet to meet specifications. A portion of the parts were installed in mid-December 2015 however the cabinet still did not meet specification. The remaining parts were delivered in February 2016 and the contractor determined that the parts did not meet specification. The contractor replaced the cabinet with a unit that met specification in July 2016. The switch heater has been installed and tested. The contractor submitted the certified testing results from Ansaldo and the as-builts in October 2016. The test results and as-builts were approved on November 2, 2016. This closes the open items associated with the Switch Heater. d. SCADA. The City has drafted the specification for the SCADA hardware based on the new system that is being installed with the BLE. The project team evaluated the schedule for Gold Line Phase 2 which will replace the TPSS units. The notice to proceed for Phase 2 will be issued in January 2017. The PMT will meet again in December 2016 to discuss the timeliness of installing SCADA

VII.CityLYNX.GoldLinePhase2 1.0 Project Overview The CityLYNX Gold Line Phase 2 Project consists of the design and construction of approximately 2.5 miles of a double-track in street running streetcar line. The Project is an extension of the approximately 1.5 mile CityLYNX Gold Line Phase 1 Project completed in July 2015. This extension of the existing CityLYNX Gold Line will result in an approximately 4 mile long double track streetcar system through Center City Charlotte. The Gold Line Phase 2 project will begin at the Charlotte Transportation Center (CTC), which is the primary transfer facility for the Charlotte Area Transit System (CATS) bus service, existing LYNX light rail service, and the current terminus for the Gold Line Phase 1 project. The Gold Line Phase 2 project will extend west, from the CTC along Trade Street, for approximately 2.0 miles, and terminate at French Street near Johnson C. Smith University campus on Beatties Ford Road. It will also extend northeast approximately 0.5 miles along Hawthorne Lane from the eastern terminus of Phase 1 at 5th Street and Hawthorne Lane near Novant Health Presbyterian Medical Center to Sunnyside Avenue.

The Project includes 11 new stops and the modification of 6 stops along the existing Phase 1 alignment. The Project will utilize seven modern streetcar vehicles, potentially hybrid vehicles if the hybrid technology is feasible, affordable and available at the time the project moves forward. These modern vehicles will replace the existing Gomaco replica trolley vehicles being used in Phase 1. The six existing stops will be modified to allow for the level boarding with the new vehicles. All platforms will utilize either a side or center platform configuration.

1.1 Project History FTA approved CATS to enter Project Development effective February 19, 2014. In Project Development CATS had pre-award authority to pursue design, right of way acquisition, and utility relocation until the SSGA was approved. In 2014, the project was advanced to a 65% level of design and the full project cost in year of expenditure with contingency was estimated at $150 million. On September 8, 2014, Charlotte City Council appropriated an additional $12 million in local funds (bringing the total local appropriation to $75 million) and authorized staff to submit a Small Starts application for a 50% local / 50% federal match on the CityLYNX Gold Line Phase 2 Project. Staff submitted the Small Starts application on September 10, 2014 and FTA rated the project as a medium in February 2015. The project was included for funding in the President’s FY2016 budget. The Small Starts grant process was progressed. FTA held a Risk Assessment workshop on September 29 and 30, 2015. The project was advanced to 90% design in 2015. CATS submitted the formal request for Small Starts Grant Agreement on November 25, 2015. CATS requested a Letter of No Prejudice (LONP) for vehicle procurement on October 5, 2015. The LONP was granted on January 4, 2016 and the requests for proposals for vehicles were advertised on January 11, 2016. Vehicle proposals were accepted on March 21, 2016, reviewed, and a request for Best and Final Offers (BAFO) was extended on May 20, 2016. The construction plans were completed in April 2016 and advertised for bid on April 25, 2016. FTA awarded the Small Starts Grant on May 13, 2016 and it was activated in TRAMS on May 23, 2016.

5.2 Disadvantaged Business Enterprise (DBE) Participation Civil Rights staff is monitoring the contracts on the Gold Line Phase 2 project. DBE Participation will be reported quarterly. The construction contract was previously advertised with a DBE goal of 11.8%. The DBE goal was reevaluated based on the re-bid project and the DBE goal remains at 11.8%.

5.3 Buy America The project is being designed to comply with Buy America. Both the vehicle specifications and the project specifications are being checked to ensure that the products specified comply with Buy America. The vehicle specifications require compliance with the new Buy America requirements for rolling stock.

5.4 Procurement Activities The vehicle proposals were reviewed and a manufacturer recommendation was made to the executive team. The contract is in negotiation and a pre-award audit began in August and is scheduled to be completed in November 2016. The construction contract was advertised on April 25, 2016 with an original bid opening date of June 23, 2016. On June 23, 2016 only two bids were received therefore the bids could not be opened and the bid advertisement had to be extended until July 1, 2016. On July 1, 2016 only 2 bids were received. The bids were determined to be unreasonable and were rejected on July 20, 2016. Negotiations were held with both bidders in early August 2016. Based upon the level of changes and the potential to generate additional competition, the City decided to end negotiations and re-bid the construction contract. The re-bid was issued on September 13, 2016 and the pre-bid meeting was held on September 28, 2016. Bid opening is scheduled for Nov. 1. The procurement process for Construction Services was started in June 2016 in order to procure testing and inspection assistance during construction. The Construction Services contracts for Construction Materials Testing and for Systems Inspection / Testing are amendments to previously procured on-call contracts for this work. No additional procurement activities occurred in September or October 2016.

6.0 Streetcar Vehicles

Engineering  The vehicle design consultant, LTK, developed a draft vehicle specification based on the project design criteria and the needs of the project. CATS sent out a Request for Information to the vehicle manufacturers to determine if any manufacturers had a vehicle that could climb the 6% grade on the project without catenary wire. Four vehicle manufacturers responded by the August 30, 2015 deadline that their product could. An additional manufacturer also responded that their vehicle could for a total of 5 potential vehicles. The vehicle specification includes a wireless vehicle option. Because of the long lead times for vehicles and the new technology of wireless, CATS requested a LONP to advance the vehicle procure process on October 5, 2015. The vehicle technical specifications and RFP were drafted and ready to be distributed once the LONP was received. The LONP was received on January 4, 2016. The Vehicle RFP was advertised on January 11, 2016.

 Proposals from 3 manufacturers were received on March 21, 2016. The proposals were reviewed by the technical review committee and the price review committee. Questions were sent to proposers on April 21, 2016 and clarifications were submitted to CATS on May 9, 2016. The selection committee determined that all three proposers would enter the Best and Final Offer (BAFO) round. Interviews with the proposers were held May 10-11, 2016. Proposers were given a list of questions to address during the interviews.

 After interviews May 10-11, 2016 the selection committee opted to extend a request for BAFO to all proposers. The Request for BAFO was sent to the proposers on May 20, 2016. BAFO’s were received from the proposers on June 17, 2016.

 The BAFO’s were sent to the Review Committees for review. The committees met on July 12, 2016 to evaluate the BAFO’s. Based on the information received, the committees determined that a second BAFO round was necessary to get the options required on the vehicle. The second round of BAFO requested a standard on-wire vehicle, a hybrid ready vehicle, and a hybrid vehicle. Two companies submitted BAFO’s on August 5, 2016.

120 of 171 FTA Quarterly Review Meeting CityLYNX Gold Line Phase 2 Charlotte Area Transit System December 8, 2016 PMO Quarterly Progress Report – November 2016

 The Vehicle Selection Committee evaluated the second BAFO on August 16 and Siemens was recommended to the project executive team as the best overall value and quality based upon the evaluation criteria. On August 23rd, the manufacturers were notified of the recommendation.

 The Team anticipates vehicle manufacturer negotiation to be completed in October 2016, in order to award a contract on the same date as the construction contract in November 2016. NTP will be issued immediately after award.

Vehicle Design Look Ahead  Develop final contract  Complete Pre-award Audit  Award contract 7.0 Project Schedule

7.1 Schedule Status The detailed baseline schedule is based on the following milestone schedule:

7.2 Critical Path Critical Path for the project:  Construction Bid  Vehicle Delivery  Construction (Track, Civil, Systems)  System Integration Testing  Pre-Revenue Service  Revenue Service

7.3 Schedule Concerns The critical issue for the schedule is awarding the construction contract and awarding the vehicle contract. The next critical step is issuing the notices to proceed for both construction and the vehicle manufacturing.

8.0 Risks CATS has developed a Risk and Contingency Management Plan that describes the procedures CATS will use to manage risks to the Project budget and schedule. The project is currently operating under the draft Risk and Contingency Management Plan issued in October which includes comments received at the Risk Assessment Workshop held on September 29-30, 2015. The Risk Register is monitored monthly.

In September 2016, the Risk Register was reviewed by the Project Management Team and the following items were recommended for retirement:

 Risk Item 14: Quality issues associated with the field fusion of the HDPE water lines result in project delay and potential extra costs. - In August 2016, the water main material was changed to PVC and DIP which are commonly used materials on the City's water system. Due to the elimination of the risk, the Project Management Team determined that this item could be retired with no impacts at the September 15, 2016 meeting.  Risk Item 39: NCDOT may delay the final packages and/or make late changes to the Hawthorne Bridge Design. - NCDOT gave verbal approval of the Bridge Plans in July 2016. Documentation was received in August 2016. Based on the receipt of NCDOT final approval, the PMT determined that this item could be retired with no impacts at the September 15, 2016 meeting.

In October 2016, the Risk Register was reviewed by the Project Management Team and the following items were recommended for retirement:  Risk Item 24: Coordination and/or funding issues with JCSU on removal of pedestrian bridge and construction of new main entrance results in increased cost and potential delay. - JCSU signed a right of entry allowing utility relocation and construction in August 2016. Signed agreements with JCSU were obtained in October 2016. The PMT reviewed this item at their October 13, 2016 meeting and determined that it could be closed with no impact.  Risk item 38: Real estate provisions with Johnson C. Smith University not in place before bids. - An offer was made in August 2016. JCSU signed a right of entry for construction work in August 2016. We received signed

122 of 171 FTA Quarterly Review Meeting CityLYNX Gold Line Phase 2 Charlotte Area Transit System December 8, 2016 PMO Quarterly Progress Report – November 2016

agreements from JCSU in October 2016. The PMT reviewed this item at their October 13, 2016 meeting and determined that it could be closed with no impact. In October 2016, the Project Management Team elected to add the following construction risk to the risk register:  Risk Item 45: Coordination and/or funding issues with JCSU on construction of new main entrance results in increased cost and potential delay. This item was added as a construction risk because of the coordination of the two projects. The mitigation for this risk is that the team plans to install curb returns for the new JCSU entrance and make arrangements for JCSU to continue to use the existing entrance as needed until they can fund the new entrance. The risk was ranked as a medium probability, medium cost impact, and medium schedule impact.

10.0 Project Development

10.1 Real Estate Acquisition The Real Estate Acquisition agents, appraisers, and attorneys were selected in September. The Real Estate staff reviewed the pre-final plan set and commented on easement needs. The list of affected parcels was developed from the pre-final plan set and refined based on the final plans. Based on the final plans easements are required. The table below has been populated with the current number of parcels. In May, a utility easement was refined resulting in the elimination of parcel 46. Parcel 46 was identified as a priority parcel and thus reduced the number of priority parcels to 13 and the overall number of parcels to 33. In October 2016, an agreement was reached to relocate the water meter connection into the right of way thus eliminating the utility easement on Parcel 78. This reduced the total number of parcels to 32.

Status The 33 parcels identified require easements. Thirteen parcels were identified as priority parcels in order to facilitate utility relocations. The Real Estate staff has contacted the affected property owners. As of the end of September 2016, seven rights of entry had been obtained. Negotiations are ongoing with the outstanding parcels.

In September 2016, 8 priority parcels were sent to Council to begin condemnation proceedings. These were parcels 45, 54, 56, 58, 63, 65, 67, and 69. The condemnation for Parcels 45, 56, 58, 63, 65, 67, and 69 was filed in October 2016. The condemnation for Parcel 54 was filed in early November 2016.

In October 2016 during the relocation of the overhead power lines, a field change was made which eliminated Parcel 209 from the priority parcels list. The remaining twelve priority parcels were acquired as of November 2016.

In November 2016, 4 parcels are scheduled to go to Council to request condemnation proceedings. These are parcels 59, 61, 235, and 303.

The City of Charlotte and Johnson C. Smith University (JCSU) are in the process of entering into a real estate transaction agreement (a.k.a. real estate special provision) in lieu of fee: The proposed special provision says the City of Charlotte will replace the university owned pedestrian bridge that currently crosses over Beatties Ford Road with a new at- grade pedestrian crossing at the proposed signalized intersection of the new JCSU entrance during GL2 construction; in exchange JSCU will convey Easements to the City on which to place GL2 OCS poles, sidewalk and utility upgrades. The City and JCSU met the third week of April 2016 and multiple times in May 2016. The final terms of the agreement will be based on the appraised value of the easements needed versus the cost of removing the pedestrian bridge. All of the appraisals for the five JCSU properties were completed as of July 2016. JCSU executed a right of entry agreement for utility relocation and bridge removal in May 2016. An offer was made to JCSU in August 2016. JCSU signed a Right of Entry on August 30, 2016 for actual construction. JCSU approved the acquisition agreement at the end of September and returned the signed documents at the beginning of October 2016. The easements were recorded in October 2016.

In accordance with that effort, CATS is reviewing and collecting recently submitted documents from BLCE1 and determining what, if any, minor revisions are appropriate in preparation for a preliminary submittal once a PMOC has been assigned. Additionally, CATS is in the process of gathering our most recent ridership data and working closely with Jeff Roux (FTA) to populate ridership spreadsheets provided by FTA.

As a requirement of the FTA’s Capital Investment Core Capacity Grant Program, CATS is required to notify FTA of its intent to seek Entry into Engineering by January 14, 2017 with the goal of receiving FTA’s approval to enter Engineering by July 15, 2017.

2. Corridor System Plan Update

a) LYNX Silver Line

In 2011 the Metropolitan Transit Commission directed CATS to prepare for a LYNX Silver Line/Southeast Corridor Transit Study.

The project officially began in February 2015. CATS, City of Charlotte staff, NCDOT, and the Town of Matthews developed three overarching goals to guide this study.

 Define a fixed rail guideway alignment that serves future transportation needs and promotes the land use plans/polices of both the Independence Blvd Area Plan and the Town of Matthews.  Provide an interim transit strategy that utilizes the future express lanes on Independence Blvd.  Coordinate with land development strategies to protect and preserve the fixed guideway alignment.

CATS presented the LYNX Silver Line light rail staff recommendation to the MTC at the September 2016 meeting. The MTC took action and approved the light rail staff recommendation at the November 2016 meeting. By taking that action, the MTC established the Locally Preferred Alternative (LPA) for the LYNX Silver Line that is now a part of the 2030 Transit System Plan. Additional study recommendations included:

 Recommendations for all Southeast corridor bus routes including an US-74 express lane bus route operational plan. Those recommendations will be included in the Envision my Ride study.  A corridor preservation strategy  Continue to study the LYNX Silver Line alignments as part of a System Integration/West Corridor Study.

Further details about the LYNX Silver Line LPA and the System Integration/West Corridor proposed study are below.

155 of 171 FTA Quarterly Review Meeting Charlotte Area Transit System December 8, 2016

 12.7 mile long Light Rail alignment from I-277 to CPCC Levine that is side running along the north side of Independence Blvd then transitioning around Briar Creek to the south side of Independence Blvd with a continuation of running along the south side until the Village Lake Drive Area then transitioning to median running Monroe Rd to Sam Newell Rd to Independence Pointe Parkway  13 stations with 8-10 Park and Rides  7-10 miles of Rail Trails

156 of 171 FTA Quarterly Review Meeting Charlotte Area Transit System December 8, 2016 LYNX Silver Line Light Rail Uptown Charlotte Alignment Options

 All six of the Uptown Charlotte route options were advanced for further evaluation.  Stakeholders were supportive of the concept of viewing the Silver Line as part of a longer east- west rail corridor across Mecklenburg County that would connect Uptown Charlotte, Matthews, and Charlotte-Douglas International Airport.  Depending on the route through Uptown Charlotte, the Silver Line corridor has the opportunity to support other CATS initiatives and Center City Charlotte development projects such as the Charlotte Gateway Station, Metropolitan, Brooklyn Village, Central Piedmont Community College, Stonewall Corridor, and the Charlotte Transportation Center/Arena.  It is difficult to select a single preferred option in Uptown without a more detailed analysis that takes into account what the maximum transit investment should be  Given that a goal of this study is to support the vision for the overall CATS system, advancing the various options in Uptown Charlotte provides the greatest flexibility to compliment other initiatives as projects moves forward.  Staff recommends the Silver Line Uptown Charlotte Alignments be studied as part of a System Integration/West Corridor Study  CATS was directed by the MTC to begin a System Integration/West Corridor alternative analysis study by Spring 2017.

157 of 171 FTA Quarterly Review Meeting Charlotte Area Transit System December 8, 2016 b) North Corridor Mobility Study

To capitalize on the I-77 express lane opportunity, CATS will conduct a North Corridor Mobility Study that has the following initial set of goals.  Enhance the existing express service to mitigate the effects of the I-77 express lane construction.  Develop an expanded express bus operating plan that maximizes the benefits of the I-77 express lanes.  Identify capital improvements such as park and rides and bus stop amenities.

Construction Mitigation Service

CATS has reached construction mitigation agreements with NCDOT and Sugar Creek Construction, LLC. The agreements will provide CATS operating funds to implement an additional 10 daily express route trips among the three express bus routes that will be impacted by the closure of the existing I-77 HOV lanes. Additionally, the funding will also be used toward advertising the expanded service.

Technical Team Meetings

CATS held a project team meeting in Cornelius, NC on November 30th. Attendees at the meeting included staff from CATS, Huntersville, Cornelius, Davidson, and Iredell County representation from iCATS Troutman, Mooresville, and Statesville. The meeting focused on the project schedule and the public involvement plan. Highlights for those items are listed below.

Public Involvement Plan Goals

 Introduce the study to the public  Gain understanding of North Corridor citizen’s transit values (Phase 1 of public outreach).  Communicate proposed bus options to citizens (Phase 2 of public outreach)  Provide an analysis of public outreach to support the implementation of changes to the current bus system  Communicate final recommendation of enhanced bus service within the North Corridor

Project Schedule

December 2016 - January 2017  Introduce the study to the public  Launch web presence January 2017 - March 2017  Phase 1 public outreach  Initial route development  Construction mitigation service begins  Select areas for park and ride location analysis March - April 2017  Phase 2 public outreach

158 of 171 FTA Quarterly Review Meeting Charlotte Area Transit System December 8, 2016  Refine route recommendations May 2017  Finalize route recommendations  Finalize park and ride areas  Implementation plan finalized June 2017  Communicate final recommendation of enhanced bus service  Study complete

c) Refresh of 2030 System Plan – West Corridor and Center City

CATS already has several “refresh” work efforts underway on 2030 Corridor System Plan elements that were last adopted by the MTC in November 2006. Those are:

 The current LYNX Silver Line work to update the Locally Preferred Alternative for a light rail alignment.  The Comprehensive Operations Analysis currently underway to evaluate CATS bus route structure to determine the most efficient deployment of existing bus resources to provide mobility options that benefit the most citizens.  The North Corridor Mobility Study to identify how best to leverage the I-77 Mobility Project and provide enhanced bus services to the northern towns.  Ongoing discussions with USDOT and the railroads to determine how to implement the long-term solution of commuter rail (LYNX Red Line) in the North Corridor.

One of the key recommendations from the LYNX Silver Line Transit Study was to study more in depth the Uptown Charlotte Silver Line options and to determine if the corridor should continue West to the Airport. To continue the momentum of the Silver Line work, Staff recommended to the MTC the initiation of a new study of the West Corridor and overall Center City transit system integration. That study would:

 Identify the preferred alignment for light rail in the West Corridor to serve the Airport and areas beyond.  Identify and evaluate the best options for linking the Southeast and West corridors through downtown as a single light rail corridor extending from Matthews to the Airport. The study will also identify options for accommodating additional future rail corridors with strategies on how to protect those options.

At the November 16, 2016 MTC meeting CATS staff recommended that the MTC approve the following:

 Approve up to $1,500,000 for this purpose. We will use a portion of the funds approved for 2030 Transit Corridor System Plan in the FY2017 CIP budget. The additional funds will be requested in the FY2018 CIP.  Direct staff to proceed with consultant solicitation for a study to determine the Locally Preferred Alternative (LPA) technology and alignment for the West (Airport) Corridor.  As part of the same study, determine how best to connect the LYNX Silver Line LPA with the West Corridor LPA in downtown Charlotte that results in a well-coordinated integrated transit system. The study will also consider how future, additional rail corridors should best access the Center City.

The MTC took action and approved the recommendations. CATS will advertise a RFQ by the end of 2016. It is anticipated that consultant work will begin in Spring 2017.

d) Regional Transit Public Engagement Series

On May 27, 2015, Jim Prosser, Executive Director of the Centralina Council of Governments presented the results of the CONNECT our Future effort that occurred from 2012 to 2015. That work encompassed the 14-county, bi-state region centered around Mecklenburg County. An extensive public engagement process, with over 8,400 participants, led to a regional growth framework that was endorsed by the CONNECT our Future Consortium, representing elected officials, private sector leaders, and nonprofit and institutional stakeholders across 14 counties. Regional transit was a topic that emerged in urban, suburban, and even rural areas of the region.

The top priorities identified for the CONNECT Region were:

 Parks & Open Space  More Transportation Choices  Support our Communities  Support Local Farms  Cost of Providing Services  Improved Water Quality  Improved Air Quality  Work Closer to Home  More Housing Choices  Cost of My Commute

Recently, there has been renewed discussion of the need to expand the regional transit conversation beyond the boundaries of Mecklenburg County. Over the past several months, CATS staff have been involved in discussions with the Centralina Council of Governments and others on a process to build upon the CONNECT our Future work.

The initial work efforts are envisioned as follows:

 Focus Groups and Thought Leader Engagement (local, state, and federal levels)  Public Opinion Survey  Planning Process Design

The proposed organization/execution of the work effort is envisioned as follows:

 Centralina Council Of Governments (CCOG) – Project Manager and future funding partner (including convener and public engagement manager)  Charlotte Area Transit System (CATS) – public transit technical support  Centralina Economic Development Commission (CEDC) – economic development coordination  Charlotte Regional Transportation Planning Organization (CRTPO) – future funding partner and technical support

At the November 16, 2016 MTC meeting CATS staff recommended that the MTC approve the following:

 Direct staff to collaborate with the Centralina Council of Governments (CCOG) on efforts to initiate the Regional Transit work to develop a strategy for engaging surrounding counties in a dialog regarding regional public transportation needs.  Approve use of up to $165,000 from the approved FY2017 budget for this effort.

161 of 171 FTA Quarterly Review Meeting Charlotte Area Transit System December 8, 2016  Negotiation of an agreement with Centralina Council of Governments  Direct staff to take the negotiated agreement to Charlotte City Council for approval and execution

The MTC took action and approved the recommendations. Once a contract has been approved by Charlotte City Council, CCOG will begin the engagement series in early 2017.
