4. HEARINGS
CONDUCT A PUBLIC HEARING TO RECEIVE COMMENTS ON A PROPOSED
ORDINANCE TO AMEND DISTRICT CODE SECTION 6.20.300 SCHEDULE OF
REIMBURSEMENT FEES, TO ESTABLISH REIMBURSEMENT FEES FOR
APPLICABLE PROPERTIES THAT COULD CONNECT TO DP 5694 OR DP
5732
Mr. Charles W. Batts, General Manager, stated that reimbursement accounts are
established for private installers of public sewer lines so they can be repaid for
extending the public sewer as additional connections to the line are made. Two sewer
project installers have requested that Reimbursement Accounts be established for their
sewer projects, and have submitted information documenting the costs of these
projects. District staff has reviewed the information and is satisfied that it accurately
documents the actual costs of the projects. On November 18, 2004, the Board of
Directors set December 16, 2004, as the date to conduct a public hearing to consider
Reimbursement Fees for the two projects.
Mr. Batts introduced Mr. Michael Penny, Associate Engineer, who stated that public
notice was given of the hearing today. Individual letters were sent to installers and
owners of the properties. Also public notice was published in the Contra Costa Times
as required. The Board is being asked to consider establishing Reimbursement Fees
for two sites, Winchester Lane in Martinez and Orchard Estates Drive in Walnut Creek.
Mr. Penny described the two sites, the costs, and the calculation of Reimbursement
Fees. The allowable costs for the Winchester Lane facility were $41,249.72 and there
are two units for a Reimbursement Fee per unit of $20,624.86. In the case of the
Orchard Estates Drive facility, the allowable costs were $76,584.50 and there are six
units for a Reimbursement Fee per unit of $12,764.08. Mr. Penny stated that staff has
reviewed and verified the allowable costs for each account and verified potential
connections. Mr. Penny stated that he did receive one telephone call from the property
owner at 48 Orchard Estates Drive, Barbara Merrick, who had general questions about
the reimbursement process, verification of costs, the potential number of parcels that
could connect to this particular project, and other questions about general fees the
District has for connecting to the sanitary sewer. Staff would recommend adoption of
the proposed ordinance establishing Reimbursement Fees.
At 2:06 p.m., President Lucey opened the public hearing to receive comments on a
proposed ordinance to amend District Code Section 6.20.300, Schedule of
Reimbursement Fees, establishing Reimbursement Fees for the Winchester Lane
project and the Orchard Estates Drive project. There being no comments, the public
hearing was closed.

It was moved by Member Menesini and seconded by Member Hockett, that Ordinance
No. 233 be adopted, amending District Code Section 6.20.300 Schedule of
Reimbursement Fees, establishing Reimbursement Fees applicable to properties that
could directly connect to Project 5694 (Winchester Lane, Martinez) and Project 5732
(Orchard Estates Drive, Walnut Creek) sewers. The motion was unanimously approved
on the following vote:
AYES: Members: Menesini, Hockett, Boneysteele, Nejedly, Lucey

6. REPORTS
a.
GENERAL MANAGER
1)
Mr. Batts, General Manager, stated that the Clean Water Act establishes
the use of waste load allocations as a final means to achieve required
water quality. Municipal dischargers have been working with the San
Francisco Bay Regional Water Quality Control Board (RWQCB) for
several years on the first Total Maximum Daily Load (TMDL) for mercury.
The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Regional 9 has publicly
stated at the RWQCB meeting that the TMDL for mercury for the San
Francisco Bay is not approvable because it does not show attainment of
the water quality standard in the Basin Plan, and the Waste Load
Allocation (WLA) for Wastewater (which includes municipal wastewater)
allows for an increase in that point source discharge which Region 9 does
not believe is allowable unless there is a reasonable assurance that all
other sources will meet their load allocations.
Mr. Batts introduced Mr. James M. Kelly, Director of Operations, who
stated that as Mr. Batts indicated earlier, the EPA opposed the Mercury
TMDL because they felt the water quality objective could not be achieved
and because the publicly owned treatment works' (POTW) allocation is too
high and should be cut by one third. The RWQCB did approve the
Mercury TMDL on September 15, 2004 primarily based on assurances by
the RWQCB staff that the Mercury TMDL does meet the regulations. The
Mercury TMDL is favorable to the District. Mr. Kelly stated that the District
can achieve compliance and meet the numbers laid out in the TMDL.
Another aspect of consistent compliance is that the District is asked to
assist in studies, and additional pollution prevention measures will be
required for dischargers to the District as discussed with the Board at the
last two Board Meetings. The next steps now that the EPA has voiced
their objection and the RWQCB has approved the Mercury TMDL are for
the RWQCB to put together the Administrative Record and forward it to
the State Water Quality Control Board. The State Board must consider
this within 60 days, probably in the March or April 2005 timeframe. The
State Board can either approve the Mercury TMDL or remand it back to
the RWQCB and ask that they change it. If the State Board approves the
Mercury TMDL, it then goes to the Office of Administrative Law for final
review. That is a six to twelve month process. It would then go to the
EPA. The EPA can approve the Mercury TMDL or disapprove it. If the
EPA disapproves it, the EPA must then prepare its own Mercury TMDL; if
the EPA prepares a TMDL, consistent compliance absent further action is
at stake for the District. To move the District into consistent compliance
could require filtering part or all of the effluent, which would be very

expensive; initiating furnace scrubber water treatment; and the District's
local limits could become even more strict.
Given that summary of where we are in the process, Mr. Kelly stated that
District staff has worked with the Bay Area Clean Water Agencies
(BACW A). Because the RWQCB has gone forward and developed a very
well reasoned TMDL, District staff and BACWA propose to support the
RWQCB and the Mercury TMDL. To date, staff has met with the EPA to
understand their position and communicate the District's position; staff has
met with Waterkeeper and other environmentalists to understand their
concerns and staff is trying to address some of those concerns; and staff
has met with the State Board to indicate that the District will do its part in
providing the administrative record that will allow the State Board to
approve the TMDL. Some actions are under way to support the TMDL: a
local effects study has begun, BACWA and the District are sponsoring a
Risk Management Workshop to inform the public of the issues. In the
future, Mr. Kelly recommended that the District actively support the TMDL
by meeting with the EPA, State Board and local officials as appropriate;
and by testifying before the State Board should that be required.
Discussion followed with regard to the content and scope of the proposed
Risk Management Workshop, and the elected officials that may be
contacted to write a letter of support for the Mercury TMDL.
President Lucey thanked Mr. Kelly for the update.
2)
Mr. Batts, General Manager, stated that recently, District staff conducted
an internal audit of the Concord billing. Three areas were noted where
adjustments were needed. First, the flow meter was out of calibration for
a period of time and Concord was probably overbilled. Second, Concord
was underbilled for their portion of capital projects related to recycled
water. Third, Concord was also underbilled for their portion of the
recycled water bond repayment. District staff met with City of Concord
staff to discuss these adjustments. The net result of the adjustments was
that Concord owes the District approximately $600,000. In an effort to
resolve this issue, Concord asked that the District review its projections for
end of year expense as compared to the amount Concord budgeted for
2004-2005. It appears that due to the short-term savings achieved by the
District, Concord's actual bill will be on the order of $600,000 less than
they budgeted. This will allow the District to add the underbilled amount
and not significantly impact Concord's budget. It was agreed that this
payment method would be the intent of both parties to resolve the issue.
If the 2004-2005 bill is significantly more than budgeted by Concord, the
District will revisit the issue at that time.
3)
Mr. Batts, General Manager, reported that Household Hazardous Waste
(HHW) Supervisor Elaine Jacobs presented the 2003-2004 HHW
Collection Facility Annual Report to the Mt. View Sanitary District Board of
Directors at their December 9, 2004 meeting. Mr. Batts stated that on
behalf of the Central Contra Costa Sanitary District Board, he thanked Mt.
View Sanitary District for their partnership in this important community
service. Environmental Services Division Manager Curt Swanson and
Senior HHW Technician David Wyatt also attended that meeting. Ms.
Jacobs' presentation was well received. Mt. View Sanitary District is
pleased with the progress that has been made and expressed
appreciation for the reduction in HHW Collection Facility operating costs
achieved over the last several years.
4)
Mr. Batts, General Manager, reported that the District has completed
construction of the last phase of the Rossmoor Sewer Improvements
Program. This was a 1 O-year program for the District to assume
responsibility of sewers in the Rossmoor community. Development of the

program began in the early 1990's with an agreement being approved in
1995. Construction of the first phase of the sewer improvements began in
the summer of that year, and the work was finished in nine construction
phases. Project management and engineering of this program was done
by District staff in consultation with the Rossmoor Ad Hoc Sewer Transfer
Committee and the Golden Rain Foundation. Staff proposes to observe
this important milestone at what will be the last annual meeting of the
Rossmoor Sewer Transfer Committee in early February at Rossmoor.
District staff will work with the Committee to arrange the event. The Board
and some retired District employees who worked on the Rossmoor sewer
transfer will be invited.
Mr. Batts, General Manager, announced that as part of the rehabilitation
plans to extend the service lives and minimize capital replacement costs
of District concrete structures, Senior Engineer Ba Than will attend the
annual World of Concrete Conference in Las Vegas from January 16
through 21, 2005. Funds were included in the 2004-2005 Engineering
Training and Conference budget for this.
Mr. Batts, General Manager, announced that Associate Engineer
Munawar Husain and Assistant Engineer Paul Seitz will be attending the
annual Underground Construction Technology Conference in Houston on
January 25-27,2005. Again, funds for this conference were included in
the 2004-2005 Engineering Training and Conference budget.
Mr. Batts, General Manager, announced that the District will be advertising
for bids for the 2005 Cured-in-Place-Pipe (CIPP) Project. This project will
place a pipe liner inside 2,521 feet of sewers in eight sites in Orinda and
Danville. The engineer's estimate for this project is $700,000.
8)
Mr. Batts, General Manager, announced that the District will be advertising
for bids for the Contra Costa Boulevard Slipline Project. The first phase of
this project, that was completed last year, installed approximately 1,500
feet of 30-inch slipline pipe inside the existing 36-inch reinforced concrete
pipe sewer in Contra Costa Boulevard between Golf Club Road and
Taylor Boulevard in Pleasant Hill. The second phase will install
approximately 8,000 feet of slipline pipe inside existing sewers in Contra
Costa Boulevard between Chilpancingo Parkway and Gregory Lane in
Pleasant Hill. Work will be coordinated with the City of Pleasant Hill and
the District's Collection System Operations (CSO) Division. The
engineer's estimate for this work is $1.5 million.
9)
Mr. Batts, General Manager, reminded the Board that the District's
Employee Activities Organization (EAO) is hosting the annual holiday
party on Friday, December 17, 2004 at noon at the Pleasant Hill
Community Center. Board Members are invited to attend.
COUNSEL FOR THE DISTRICT
1)
Mr. Kenton L. Aim, Counsel for the District, provided an update on the
lawsuit brought by the Contra Costa Times against the City of Oakland,
and which was joined by several of the unions on behalf of the City. The
lawsuit deals with disclosure of total compensation of employees, other
than management employees. There was a newspaper article recently
that included a listing of total compensation paid to non-management
employees. The trial court decision was that the City of Oakland had to
produce that information. The City of Oakland did not appeal, but the
intervener unions have appealed. The information was disclosed because
the unions were not successful in obtaining a stay for the order disclosing
the information. The appellate court took this up on the basis that this is a
continuing question that is raised periodically; and therefore, it is
appropriate to decide the issue.

the proposed Conco Cement Company development and mitigation
measures set forth in a letter from Contra Costa County, and interest in
the District property located at 3881 Los Arabis in Lafayette. A draft letter
expressing the District's concern regarding the potential relocation of the
Concord Airport to Acme Landfill property was distributed and comments
were requested from the Board. Member Nejedly asked that staff look into
purchase of the vacant property across from the Collection System
Operations (CSO) Division facility in Walnut Creek. The Real Estate
Committee endorsed extension of the lease with Contra Costa County for
the Animal Services Facility on a month to month basis pending
completion of the new facility.
Staff was asked to calendar a closed session for the next Board Meeting
to consider the offer from the Town of Danville.

Mr. Batts, General Manager, stated that current and proposed collection system
renovation projects have created a demand for outside right-of-way services. It is
requested that the Board authorize an increase in the cost ceiling of the right-of-way
consulting services agreement with Associated Right of Way Services, Inc. In addition
to providing right-of-way acquisition services, this firm provides land appraisal services
related to capital projects. Associated Right of Way Services, Inc. was selected through
a request for proposals process in January 2003.
It was moved by Member Menesini and seconded by Member Nejedly, that the General
Manager be authorized to execute an amendment to the existing agreement,
Agreement No. 027105TC, with Associated Right of Way Services, Inc. to increase the
cost ceiling from $50,000 to $100,000. There being no objection, the motion was
unanimously approved.
8. TREATMENT PLANT
a.
AUTHORIZE THE GENERAL MANAGER TO PRE-PURCHASE NATURAL GAS
FOR FISCAL YEAR 2005-2006
Mr. Batts, General Manager, stated that the District continues to follow the natural gas
market that has been volatile over the last year due to increases in oil prices,
interruptions in production such as by the hurricanes in the Gulf of Mexico, and the
limited supply of natural gas for the world market. Over the last several years the
District has pre-purchased natural gas. Pre-purchasing natural gas has served the
District well by taking advantage of limited opportunities when prices decline, often for
only short periods of time. Staff now believes it is prudent, based on market analysis, to
begin pre-purchasing natural gas for fiscal year 2005-2006.
Mr. Batts introduced Mr. Douglas J. Craig, Plant Operations Divi.sion Manager, who
provided an overview of historical gas trends and the District's experience with pre-
purchasing the District's natural gas needs. Mr. Craig used a graph to detail natural gas
costs for the past two years from January 2003 through December 2004, comparing the
purchase price, the spot market price, and the District's natural gas budget price. As
can be seen from the graph, the natural gas spot market price has been very volatile
and has ranged from a low of $4.84 per decatherm up to a high of $8.50 per decatherm.
For the same period of time, the District pre-purchased natural gas ranging from a low
of approximately $4.00 per decatherm to a high of approximately $5.40 per decatherm.
By pre-purchasing natural gas over the last two years, the District has saved
approximately $1 million. Recently, high oil prices have caused natural gas prices to
fluctuate around $7.50 per decatherm. Natural gas for fiscal year 2004-2005 was pre-
purchased at $6.15 per decatherm. While there are no guarantees, pre-purchasing
natural gas has been advantageous to the District in recent years. Mr. Craig presented
the staff recommendation that the Board authorize the General Manager to pre-
purchase gas for fiscal year 2005-2006.
Discussion followed with regard to seasonal variations and other factors that impact
natural gas prices that are considered in determining the appropriate time to pre-
purchase natural gas, the amount of natural gas used in the District treatment process,
and the point when there is a cost advantage to purchase natural gas over the purchase
of Pacific Gas and Electric electrical power.
In terms of clarification, Mr. Kenton L. Aim, Counsel for the District, stated previously
staff requested and the Board authorized pre-purchase of natural gas within a dollar per
decatherm range. For further clarification, Mr. Aim asked if staff is requesting
authorization to pre-purchase for all of the District's natural gas needs for fiscal year
2005-2006, and the length of the authorization requested.
Mr. Craig stated that authorization is requested to pre-purchase from 90 to 100 percent
of the District's natural gas supply requirements for 2005-2006 between now and the
end of 2006. Mr. Craig stated that he would hope that the District would be able to lock
in a good price prior to 2005-2006 but that will depend on the market.
