REPORTS a. GENERAL MANAGER-CHIEF ENGINEER 2) Mr. Dolan, General Manager-Chief Engineer, introduced Mr. Paul Morsen, Deputy General Manager, who briefly summarized the District's proposed Household Hazardous Waste Program comprising a central hub facility and mobile units. Mr. Morsen reported that he met with Ms. Robin Bedell- Waite, the County Household Hazardous Waste Coordinator, to explain the District's program and to express the District's concern with duplicate rates for the ratepayers in the unincorporated areas. Ms. Bedell-Waite indicated that she would be preparing a plan for consideration by the Board of Supervisors in January 1992. At this time, it is not clear what the County's plan will encompass or whether there will be a duplication of efforts or costs. Mr. Dolan requested guidance from the Board as to how the District should proceed. In the discussion that followed, Member Rainey stated that the Contra Costa Solid Waste Authority is considering whether to take on the project of coordinating a County-wide Household Hazardous Waste Program. Member Rainey indicated that Mr. Morsen has made several presentations on the proposed Household Hazardous Waste Program to various groups throughout the County. The program has been well- accepted in most quarters. In response to a question from Member Boneysteele, Mr. Morsen stated that the District's proposed Household Hazardous Waste Program seeks to meet both AB 939 requirements and source control purposes. It has been proposed that the program be funded through the Sewer Service Charge since that would encompass evenly all the central county cities. The only complications would be citizens on septic tanks and the residents of Mt. View Sanitary District, and ~hat District has expressed an interest in joining in the program. Following discussion, it was decided to await the outcome the Contra Costa Solid Waste Authority consideration of this item on November 14, 1991. Member Rainey suggested that staff secure a date on the Board of Supervisors Internal Operations Committee or Environmental Affairs Committee in an effort to reach agreement on program and costs for the unincorporated areas. At this time, President Clausen returned to the order of the agenda. 1~1:~ 06~ 9~:,1' 214 13. EMERGENCY SITUATIONS REQUIRING BOARD ACTION Mr. John A. Larson, Collection System Operations (CSO) Department Manager, described the location and condition of the 27" sewer line serving the Town of Moraga. There is a 66" East Bay Municipal Utility District water line in the area and Las Trampas Creek runs through the area as well. District staff had been working in the area on a problem thought to be surface erosion; however, it was discovered that there are two landslides in the area. If the line is not repaired before it begins to rain, it is likely that the sewer line will be lost. Mr. Larson stated that the long-term and safe approach to solving the problem, would be to install a retaining wall the entire length of the slides and provide an underdrain system. The cost for this approach is estimated to be $230,000. Alternatively, a bypass could be installed upstream out of the slide area. This would be a short-term fix with an estimated cost of $50,000 to $75,000. In response to questions from Mr. Kenton L. Aim, Counsel for the District, Mr. Larson stated that the extent of the situation was learned on Tuesday~ November 5, 1991, after the Board agenda was prepared. The information was learned from a soils engineer. Mr. Larson stated that an emergency exists because of the impending wet weather season. For that reason, Mr. Larson requested Board authority for exception to the District standard bidding procedure to allow work to proceed to correct this situation. It was moved by Member Dalton and seconded by Member Starita, that in accordance with Government Code Section 54954.2(b)(1), the Board of Directors of the Central Contra Costa Sanitary District determines that an emergency situation exists, as defined in Section 54956.5 of the Government Code. Motion unanimously approved on the following roll call vote: AYES: Members: Dalton, Starita, Boneysteele, Rainey, Clausen NOES: Members: None ABSENT: Members: None Following discussion, it was moved by Member Boneysteele and seconded by Member Rainey, that in accordance with Public Còntract Code Section 20806, the Board of Directors finds that the circumstances are sufficient for the Board to make the legislative finding that in order to avoid public calamity and to protect the public health and safety, exception to the District standard bidding procedure is authorized if necessary for repair of the unstable slide condition in the area of the 21" sewer line serving Moraga and authorization is given to proceed without limitations with regard to staff time between now and the November 21, 1991 Board meeting. Motion unanimously approved on the following roll call vote: AYES: Members: Boneysteele, Rainey, Dalton, Starita, Clausen NOES: Members: None ABSENT: Members: None 14. REPORTS a.

The Board has not been asked to approve this change. In addition, Orinda-Moraga Disposal Service has produced and plans to distribute a public information brochure without the District's concurrence. When other companies have proposed such a mailing, the Board indicated that this type public relations piece should not be financed by the public. Following discussion, staff was directed to calendar these matters for further discussion on December 5, 1991, and invite Mr. Douglas Lomow, of Orinda-Moraga Disposal Service to attend the meeting. 5) Mr. Dolan announced that the District is currently adve~ising for bids for polymers. 6) Mr. Dolan announced that the District is advertising for the Mt.
