AND HDR ENGINEERING INC. FOR CIVIL ENGINEERING SUPPORT SERVICES FOR VARIOUS CITY PROJECTS RECOMMENDATION Approve consultant master agreements with MWH Americas Inc. and HDR Engineering Inc. for a variety of civil engineering support services from the date of execution through December 31, 2015, in an amount not to exceed $500,000 for each master agreement. OUTCOME Approval of the master agreements with MWH Americas Inc. and HDR Engineering Inc. provides the City with the ability to obtain on-call civil engineering services to support preliminary design- build and third party review of several upcoming projects indentified in the Adopted 2013-17 Capital Improvement Program. BACKGROUND The 2013-2017 AdoptedSanitary Sewer System CIP and Storm Sewer System CIP call for approximately $163,700,000 and $21,400,000 of expenditures for construction projects, respectively. Many of these proj ects/programs are expected to require engineering studies, specialty design build services involving mechanical, electrical and structural trades, enhanced regulatory permitting assistance, and other professional consultant services. City staff does not currently possess the necessary expertise or capacity to efficiently perfor~m these tasks and deliver the identified CIP projects. On call consultant services provide the most efficient way to acquire the required specialty design expertise while allowing City staff to focus on other tasks to deliver CIP projects in a timely manner. HONORABLE MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL July 23, 2012 Subject: Master Agreement with MWH Americas, Inc. and HDR Engineering, Inc. Page 2 ANALYSIS Consultant Selection The consultant selection process was conducted in accordance with the Council-approved Qualifications Based Consultant Selection Policy, Section 3.3.3 "Intermediate and Major Selection Processes." A total of 19 responsive Statement of Qualifications were received and evaluated by a Screening Panel. Ten firms were subsequently short-listed and invited to interview with an Interview Panel. Based on the qualifications presented in their Statement of Qualifications and final interview scores, the final ranking are listed in the attached form, "CONSULTANT SELECTION SUMMARY." The Top-Ten Ranking list was approved by the Director on December 22, 2010 and to be kept active for a period of 24 months from the date of Director’s approval to allow staff the flexibility to award additional master agreements should the need arise for additional specialty consultant services. ~ To date, each of the following consultants have been awarded a not-to-exceed-S500,000 master agreement with the respective general scopes of work as follows: Consultant Award Date ~ Brief Description of Primary Task Schaaf & ’ 6/14/2011 i North San Jose storm drain evaluation and ..__W_h...?..~.~. ........................................................................................................................

Scope of Work MWH Americas, Inc., (ranked number 6 out of top 10) will provide engineering and third party review support for Sanitary Sewer CIP and Storm Sewer CIP projects, as well as assisting City staff with preliminary design-build (bridging) documents for several capacity-improvement projects. HDR Engineering Inc. (ranked number 7 out of top 10) will provide hydraulic modeling, capacity analysis, design and analysis for pump stations and siphon projects as well as engineering support for Sanitary Sewer CIP and Storm Sewer CIP projects. EVALUATION ANDFOLLOW-UP No additional follow up action with the Council is expected at this time. These agreements support the Environmental and Utility Services City Service Area outcome of obtaining "reliable utility infrastructure:" Staff will monitor the impact of this action through the City’s project tracking Capital Project Management System and will communicate any issues to the City Council if they arise. HONORABLE MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL July 23, 2012 Subject: Master Agreement with MWH Americas, Inc. and HDR Engineering, Inc. Page 3 POLICY ALTERNATIVES Alternative #1: An alternative approach to accomplish this effort would be for all work to be carried out by existing City staff in lieu of the proposed partnership effort with outside professional civil engineering consulting firms. Pros: The work would be done by City staff. ~ Cons: In-house staff would need to develop the appropriate technical capability across the broad range of required expertise. Reliance solely on City resources could jeopardize the successful implementation of these projects on time and within budget. Reason for not recommending: The City would need to employ and/or allocate time to develop staff to cover a

  • Hybrid Constitutional Courts: Foreign Judges on National Constitutional Courts
    Hybrid Constitutional Courts: Foreign Judges on National Constitutional Courts ROSALIND DIXON* & VICKI JACKSON** Foreign judges play an important role in deciding constitutional cases in the appellate courts of a range of countries. Comparative constitutional scholars, however, have to date paid limited attention to the phenomenon of “hybrid” constitutional courts staffed by a mix of local and foreign judges. This Article ad- dresses this gap in comparative constitutional schol- arship by providing a general framework for under- standing the potential advantages and disadvantages of hybrid models of constitutional justice, as well as the factors likely to inform the trade-off between these competing factors. Building on prior work by the au- thors on “outsider” models of constitutional interpre- tation, it suggests that the hybrid constitutional mod- el’s attractiveness may depend on answers to the following questions: Why are foreign judges appoint- ed to constitutional courts—for what historical and functional reasons? What degree of local democratic support exists for their appointment? Who are the foreign judges, where are they from, what are their backgrounds, and what personal characteristics of wisdom and prudence do they possess? By what means are they appointed and paid, and how are their terms in office structured? How do the foreign judges approach their adjudicatory role? When do foreign * Professor of Law, UNSW Sydney. ** Thurgood Marshall Professor of Constitutional Law, Harvard Law School.

  • AGRICULTURAL CHANGE in NORTHERN RHODESIA/ZAMBIA: 1945-196St
    S. M. MAKINGS* AGRICULTURAL CHANGE IN NORTHERN RHODESIA/ZAMBIA: 1945-196St 1. BACKGROUND Zambia is a landlocked country of some 290,000 square miles in central Africa, with a population of about 35 million. Its boundaries abut on Bechuanaland, Rhodesia, and Mo~ambique to the south, Malawi and Tanzania to the east and northeast, the Congo in the north, and Angola to the west. Major rivers are the Zambezi, which flows through the flood plains of the Barotse Prov­ ince and along the Rhodesian border, filling the huge Kariba lake and providing hydroelectric power for both Zambia and Rhodesia, the Kafue flowing through the middle of the country, the Luangwa in the east, and the Chambeshi in the north (Map 1). The spread of good agricultural soils is limited, mainly comprising the larger tracts of fertile upper valley soils lying in the Kafue basin of the Central and Southern provinces, with westward extensions, and the valley areas of river tribu­ taries feeding the Luangwa in the east. It is in these areas that commercial farm­ ing has developed. The extensive areas of Kalahari sands in the west of the coun­ try have little fertility, but the Zambezi flood plain and some of the swamp soils support relatively heavy concentrations of population. The flood plain also car­ ries about 200,000 head of cattle for about six months of the year, and the fringe soils are of potential value for dry season cropping. In the north and northwest, apart from the swamp areas and the alluvial pockets in the river valleys, the huge tracts of plateau soils are sandy, poor, heavily leached by the comparatively high rainfall, and generally with a low base exchange capacity.

EXTRATERRITORIAL COURTS AND STATES: LEARNING FROM THE JUDICIAL COMMITTEE OF THE PRIVY COUNCIL by HAROLD AVNON YOUNG Under the Direction of Amy Steigerwalt, PhD ABSTRACT In 2015, South Africa withdrew from the International Criminal Court asserting United Nation’s Security Council bias in referring only African cases (Strydom October 15, 2015; Duggard 2013) and the United Kingdom reiterated a pledge to withdraw from the European Court of Human Rights, asserting that the court impinges on British sovereignty (Watt 2015). Both are examples of extraterritorial courts which are an important part of regional and global jurisprudence. To contribute to our understanding of the relationship between states and extraterritorial courts, I examine arguably the first and best example of an extraterritorial court, namely the Judicial Committee of the Privy Council (JCPC). Drawing on 50 British Commonwealth states, this dissertation explores the factors influencing the decision to accede to an extraterritorial court and why some states subsequently opt to sever ties.
