2. PUBLIC COMMENTS
Mr. Tim Bredbenner of SEG Trucking at 4050 Mallard Drive in Concord spoke about his
company's recent inclusion on the list of industries in significant noncompliance with
pretreatment program regulations. Mr. Bredbenner stated that the staff of SEG
Trucking pride themselves on working with regulatory agencies throughout the county
and that they are always looking for ways to improve operations, safety, and
environmental compliance. He displayed several pictures of his facility which were
taken earlier in the day on February 17, 2005.
Mr. Bredbenner reviewed his experience with the District's Source Control section since
May of 2002 when he was first visited by Source Control staff Tim Potter and Kiley
Kinnon, who toured his facility and discovered some areas for improvement in his
operations. He was issued a Warning Notice based on observations made during that
inspection. Mr. Bredbenner stated that some individuals he dealt with from the District
were confrontational and arrogant. His facility was subsequently placed under permit by
Source Control, and a later inspection, in 2004, found pretreatment permit limit
violations in the oil/water interceptor for which a Notice of Violation was issued. At the
time, Mr. Bredbenner said he was not informed of the possibility his company was in
significant non-compliance or that the District published the names of companies in
significant non-compliance in the newspaper. Mr. Bredbenner stated that he and his
staff take great pride in running a safe and clean operation that is in compliance with
regulations. When the violations were discovered, he took all necessary steps to come

into compliance, and his facility has been in compliance ever since then. He has spent
approximately fifty thousand dollars to meet the District's pretreatment requirements.
He stated he was very surprised and dismayed, therefore, to see his company listed in
the Contra Costa Times as being in significant non-compliance with District
pretreatment requirements, without any explanation of the process in advance.
Mr. Bredbenner suggested that improvements in communication were called for, and
that the varying levels of customer service he received from Source Control staff should
be addressed. He stated that his company wants to maintain a good working
relationship with, and to work in partnership with, regulatory agencies, and that it would
be more productive if District staff approached the permitted businesses with that same
spirit of cooperation.
Mr. Bredbenner stated that he came to the Board meeting to voice his frustrations and
he hopes that, in the future, views at the District may change. He thanked the Board for
their time and for listening.
Member Lucey asked Mr. Bredbenner several questions related to the permitting of
SEG Trucking by the District. Member Lucey asked staff to prepare a report for the
March 3 Board meeting that would explain why a permit was required and what other
haulers are under permit; the requirement, if any, to publish the names of companies in
significant non-compliance; and how staff communicates with industries in significant
non-compliance that their names will be published in the newspaper. Member Lucey
noted that, from the pictures shown today, the SEG Trucking facility is a lot cleaner than
other trucking companies he has been associated with in the past.
Member Menesini thanked Mr. Bredbenner for his presentation and said his facility
appeared to be very clean and that his efforts to come into compliance were admirable.
Member Menesini added that the District has to meet the regulatory requirements of the
Regional Water Quality Control Board but that the District should inform businesses in
the service area of the possibility their names will be published in the newspaper.
Member Boneysteele said he would like to hear staffs comments. President Hockett
said that staff had to do some homework on this issue, and since the item was not on
the agenda, a report would be made at the March 3 Board meeting. President Hockett
thanked Mr. Bredbenner for his presentation and said that the District will use this as a
learning opportunity to improve its process for permitting businesses and
communicating with them.
In the absence of General Manager Charles W. Batts, Mr. James Kelly, Acting General
Manager, thanked Mr. Bredbenner for his professional presentation and said that, when
he previously toured SEG Trucking, the facility was as clean as that shown in the
photos today. Mr. Kelly stated that the District will learn how better to work with
industrial customers from this experience.

BIDS AND AWARDS
t#
AUTHORIZE AWARD OF CONSTRUCTION CONTRACT TO GELCO
SERVICES. INC.. FOR THE 2005 CURED-IN-PLACE PIPE PROJECT.
DISTRICT PROJECT 5706
Mr. James Kelly, Acting General Manager, said that this project represents the start of
the bidding season for about twenty construction projects over the next few months. Mr.
Kelly introduced Mr. Tom Godsey, Associate Engineer. Mr. Godsey reviewed the
project, including the process for inserting and curing the pipe, the location where work
is to be done, work hours, the potential impacts to traffic during construction, and
measures the District will take to mitigate the impacts. Mr. Godsey said the District
hired a traffic engineer to analyze traffic patterns in the area and to develop a Traffic
Control Plan. Discussion followed regarding the specific locations where the work will
be done, the hours during which the work will be done, and how traffic will be affected
by the project. Member Lucey expressed concern about the impacts to traffic during
commute hours. Mr. Godsey explained how temporary access structures will be built in
order to minimize disruption. Member Menesini asked whether the staff of the City of
Orinda had been informed and were in agreement with District plans. Mr. Godsey said
they had been informed and agreed with the Traffic Control Plan.
Following discussion, it was moved by Member Menesini and seconded by President
Hockett, that award of a construction contract in the amount of $615,690 for the
construction of the 2005 Cured-in-Place Pipe Project, DP 5706, be authorized to Gelco
Services, Inc., the lowest responsive and responsible bidder.

AUTHORIZE AWARD OF CONSTRUCTION CONTRACT TO K.J. WOODS
CONSTRUCTION. INC.. FOR THE CONTRA COSTA BLVD. SLlPLINING
PROJECT. PHASE 2. DISTRICT PROJECT NO. 5931
Mr. James Kelly, Acting General Manager, said that over the past several years the
District has undertaken a program of inspecting its reinforced concrete pipe (RCP) in
the collection system. Several reaches of RCP have extensive corrosion and have
been targeted for rehabilitation. Mr. Kelly introduced Ms Dana Lawson, Assistant
Engineer. Ms Lawson reviewed the project for the Board, including the need for the
project, the location where work is to be done, the process of inserting a liner into
existing pipe, traffic impacts and work hours, and staff's coordination with the staff of the
City of Pleasant Hill. Phase Two of this project will re-line approximately 8,000 linear
feet of 33-inch and 36-inch concrete pipe. The lowest responsive and responsible bid
was from K.J. Woods in the amount of $1.318 million. The project is scheduled to start
in March 2005 and be completed by August 2005. Discussion and questions followed
regarding the sliplining process, the reduction of flow capacity in a sliplined pipe, and
the structural integrity of the sliplining material. Member Lucey complimented

Engineering staff on completing projects on time. Member Boneysteele agreed with this
and said that thø Rossmoor project, which was scheduled to be completed over a ten
year period, was actually completed in nine years and eleven months, and on budget.
Following discussion, it was moved by Member Lucey and seconded by Member
Menesini, that award of a construction contract in the amount of $1 ,318,000 for the
construction of the Contra Costa Boulevard Sliplining Project, DP 5931, be authorized to
K.J. Woods Construction, Inc., the lowest responsive and responsible bidder. There
being no objection, the motion was unanimously approved.

EXEMPT PROJECT FROM PUBLIC BIDDING: AUTHORIZE AWARD OF
CONTRACT WITH AQUA-SCIENCE ENVIRONMENTAL TOXICOLOGY
CONSULTANTS TO FURNISH AND INSTALL A FLOW-THROUGH BIOASSAY
FACILITY: TREATMENT PLANT BIOASSAY TRAILER IMPROVEMENTS,
DISTRICT PROJECT 7230
c.
Mr. James Kelly, Acting General Manager, said that the District's existing flow-through
bioassay facility is at the end of its useful life. The District needs to provide continued
testing and to meet the new testing requirements for 2006. Mr. Kelly introduced Mr.
Nathan Hodges, Assistant Engineer. Mr. Hodges said the existing trailer and equipment
is thirteen years old and cannot maintain the temperatures needed for the bioassay
testing. Discussion and questions followed concerning the test species to be used, the
difficulty of maintaining correct test temperatures on hot days, the new test
requirements for 2006, the cost of housing the test equipment in a trailer vs. in the lab,
and the possibility of recycling components from the old facility. Member Lucey asked
about the exemption from public bidding and the existence of other vendors.
Following discussion, it was moved by Member Menesini and seconded by Member
Boneysteele, that the Board of Directors finds that the Bioassay Facility Trailer is
available only from Aqua-Science Environmental Toxicology Consultants; that the
Treatment Plant Bioassay Trailer Improvement Project, District Project 7230, is exempt
from public bidding requirements; that the Award of the Contract is authorized to Aqua-
Science Environmental Toxicology Consultants for the furnishing, installation, and start-
up of a flow-through bioassay facility for the lump sum of $98,032.

REPORTS
GENERAL MANAGER
1)
Mr. James Kelly, Acting General Manager, gave a brief update on the
status of the Alhambra Valley sewer extension. Staff is currently working
on the preliminary design of the trunk sewer, and this work includes
surveying, preparing base maps, collecting information about existing

Mr. Kelly, Acting General Manager, announced that a property owner in
the EI Toyonal area of Orinda recently filed a lawsuit against the City of
Orinda and Contra Costa Environmental Health claiming that the
County's moratorium on septic tanks is unconstitutional and
discriminatory. A federal magistrate is hearing the case and instructed
the litigants to confer with the District about extending sewers to the
property. District staff is drafting a letter to go to homeowners in the area
indicating the District's willingness to meet with homeowners who might
be interested in pursuing the extension of a main sewer to their
properties. Staff will bring the letter to the Outreach Committee for
review on February 24, 2005.
Mr. Kelly, Acting General Manager, announced that Environmental.
Services Division Manager Curt Swanson will attend an American Water
Works Association Membrane Specialty Conference in Phoenix, Arizona
on March 5 through 7.
Mr. Kelly, Acting General Manager, announced that six representatives
from the State Water Resources Control Board toured the District's
treatment plant today. The Assistant Executive Officer of the State Board
arranged and attended the tour, and he was been very complimentary of
the District's facilities.

2)
Mr. Kenton Aim, Counsel for the District, announced that he has
reviewed the indemnity language in the contract between the District and
the Contra Costa County Clean Water Program. Mr. Aim said that the
language is adequate to protect the District from most kinds of claims
that could arise, but the District is not protected absolutely from all
claims. The language in the contract is the product of lengthy
negotiations and substantial compromise between the District, the
County Flood Control District, and the cities in the Clean Water Program.
Mr. Kenton Aim, Counsel for the District, announced that a settlement
agreement has been reached with Mike and Dianne Kern for their
overflow claim in the amount of $32,997 with a full release.

ENGINEERING
a.
AUTHORIZE THE PRESIDENT OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS AND THE
SECRETARY OF THE DISTRICT TO EXECUTE AN AGREEMENT WITH THE
CITY OF LAFAYETTE FOR PAVEMENT RESTORATION AS PART OF THE
PLEASANT HILL RELIEF INTERCEPTOR. PHASE 5 AND HAPPY VALLEY
ROAD SEWER RENOVATION PROJECT. DISTRICT PROJECT 5659 AND
5692
Mr. James Kelly, Acting General Manager, stated that the District's contractor had been
unable to complete the pavement restoration after this project last year due to difficulties
with utility locations and elevations. The City of Lafayette has a pavement restoration
project planned for 2005, and District staff has negotiated with the City of Lafayette to
have its contractor seal the portions of the road affected by the District's project. The
$28,226 to be paid to the City of Lafayette is what the District would have spent on the
work.
I
Member Lucey expressed concern that the District was paying too much because the
City of Lafayette would benefit from economies of scale on their larger paving project
and therefore, this portion of the project would cost them less than the amount
proposed. Discussion followed concerning whether the savings due to economies of
scale would be offset by one year's inflation. Because the City of Lafayette has not bid
out their project yet, it is hard to know what the savings for doing the work as part of a
larger project might be, and it's impossible to know accurately what the additional cost
due to inflation would be.
Following discussion, it was moved by Member Menesini and seconded by Member
Boneysteele that the President of the Board of Directors and the Secretary of the
District be authorized to execute an agreement with the City of Lafayette for pavement
restoration as part of the Pleasant Hill Relief Interceptor, Phase 5 and Happy Valley
Road Sewer Renovation Project, District Project 5659 and 5692.

TREATMENT PLANT
a.
BOARD ACCEPTANCE OF THE 2004 RECYCLED WATER QUALITY AND
DISTRIBUTION REPORT
Mr. James Kelly, Acting General Manager, said that, in previous years, the recycled
water report was submitted along with the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination
System (NPDES) annual report, but the Regional Water Quality Control Board has
requested that it be submitted separately from now on to simplify the process of
tracking, storing, and compiling water reuse data. Mr. Kelly introduced Mr. Doug Craig,
Plant Operations Division Manager. Mr. Craig gave an overview of the report. In 2004,
the District delivered 190 million gallons of recycled water to 21 customers, with the
peak month being July, when 34 million gallons were delivered. Mr. Craig said that the
District had no violations in 2004, but did have one excursion for low dissolved oxygen
content.
I
A discussion followed concerning what caused the excursion, and the difference
between an excursion, a violation, and a significant violation. Member Boneysteele
pointed out that the District has an opportunity in the report to inform the Regional
Board of what is preventing us from increasing our recycled water distribution, namely,
the service duplication restrictions. Staff was requested to strengthen the language
related to this in the report so that it is clear what the problem really is.

It was moved by Member Boneysteele and seconded by Member Lucey that the
minutes of January 27,2005 be approved as presented. There being no objection, the
motion was unanimously approved.

BUDGET AND FINANCE
a.
RECEIVE THE 2004-2005 OPERATIONS AND MAINTENANCE BUDGET
REVIEW FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2004
Mr. James Kelly, Acting General Manager, said that this is the time of year when staff
looks at the Operations and Maintenance (O&M) and Capital results for the first six
months of the year and projects full year revenue and expenses. Mr. Kelly introduced
Ms. Debbie Ratcliff, Controller, and Ms. Ann Farrell, Director of Engineering, to review
the O&M and Capital results, respectively.
Ms. Ratcliff reviewed the O&M revenues and expenses for the six months ended
December 31,2004. Total actual revenues were $685,270 over budget, while total
actual expenses were $1,799,458 under budget, for a total favorable variance of
$2,484,728 for the six month period. Projections for the full fiscal year are for total
revenues of $104,300 over budget and total expenses of $1,217,460 under budget, for
a projected total favorable variance of $1 ,321 ,760.
Ms. Ratcliff stated that the favorable variance in revenue was due to the additional
sewer service charge collected because of the new housing starts in the Dougherty
Valley and other areas where building is going on.
Ms. Ratcliff stated that the full year projections include the following:
Favorable Variances:
. Salaries and Wages are projected to be under budget due to actively
managing the filling of positions
. Benefits are projected to be under budget in line with salary savings
. Other Expenses are projected to be under budget because there was no
election expense
. Outside Services are projected to be under budget due to a reduction in the
use of outside consultants
Unfavorable Variances:
. Utilities are projected to be over budget due to anticipated increases in natural
and landfill gas
. Repairs and Maintenance are projected to be over budget due to unanticipated
metal work on the furnace and a major centrifuge overhaul
The reduction in reserves will actually be less than budgeted because of the additional
revenue and lower projected expenses.

Temporary Investments
Ms. Ratcliff, Controller, reported that the District's Temporary Investments were
held in the District's Local Agency Investment Fund (LAIF) account, commercial
paper, and Treasury Bills. The LAIF yield for November 2004 was two percent.

c.
2004-2005 CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT BUDGET MID-YEAR STATUS REPORT
Ms. Farrell reviewed the mid year status report for each of the four areas of the Capital
Program. Based on current projections, the results for each area were:
The Treatment Plant Program is projected to be approximately $612,000 under
budget due to savings on the three large projects completed.
The Collection System Program is projected to be approximately $1,870,000
over budget due primarily to the Happy Valley Sewer Project being delayed
one year and added to the Pleasant Hill Interceptor Phase V Project. Some
reimbursements are not included in these figures.
The General Improvements Program is projected to be approximately
$428,000 under budget.
The Recycled Water Program is projected to be approximately $402,000 under
budget
The total projected variance for Capital Expenditures is $428,000 over budget.
.
.
.
I
.
Ms. Farrell reviewed the projections for Capital Program Revenue. Total revenue is
projected to be $4,862,000 over budget, despite the loss of $328,000 of tax revenue,
primarily due to the early receipt of approximately $5 million of additional Facility
Capacity Fees. These fees are paid when new homes are built, and the fast build-out of
the Dougherty Valley accounts for the payment of these fees earlier than anticipated.
The Sewer Construction Fund balance will show a deficit of about $1 million; this deficit
would have been about $6 million without the higher than anticipated Dougherty Valley
revenues.
Ms. Farrell reviewed cash flow for fiscal years 2001-02 through 2004-05. The Sewer
Construction Fund balance has gone up significantly during that time because
approximately $15 million was borrowed and necessary capital projects were deferred
in anticipation of the loss of ad valorem tax revenue. Staff's goal this year is to begin
these needed capital projects and as a result, it is anticipated that the Sewer
Construction Fund balance will be drawn down.
