ISSUE: A public hearing regarding Angelo Street/EI Sombro Contractual Assessment
District No. 2000-3 (CAD No. 2000-3) was scheduled for September 20, 2001.
Additional time is needed to allow consideration of the project costs by the CAD
participants.
RECOMMENDATION: Continue the public hearing and continue consideration of approval
of Angelo Street/EI Sombro CAD 2000-3 to October 4, 2001.
FINANCIAL IMPACTS: The estimated total project cost is $201,604. The District has
authorized up to $1,000,000 per year for CADs in 2001-02. To date, the Board has
approved 2 CAD projects with a total project cost of $369,755. There is $630,245
remaining for other CAD projects.
AL TERNA TIVES/CONSIDERA TIONS: None
BACKGROUND: A group of 15 parcel owners on Angelo Street/EI Sombro in Lafayette
have requested that the District form a contractual assessment district for the purpose of
financing and constructing a public sewer system that will benefit their properties. The
Angelo Street/EI Sombro CAD meets all of the criteria for formation of a contractual
assessment district. The Board of Directors adopted a Resolution of Intention to form a
contractual assessment district on July 6, 2000. The proposed CAD project includes
approximately 1,255 linear feet of 8-inch sewer main, and five standard manholes that
will serve the proponents' 15 existing properties, all of which have existing homes
presently relying on septic tanks. A map showing the proposed boundary and the
proposed sewer location is presented as Attachment 1.

Subject:
AUTHORIZE AWARD OF CONSTRUCTION CONTRACT TO INSITUFORM
TECHNOLOGIES, INC., FOR THE ORINDA TRUNK SEWER CURED-
IN-PLACE (CIP) PIPE PROJECT, DISTRICT PROJECT 5551
Submitted By:

REVIEWED AND RECOMMENDED FOR BOARD ACTION:
ISSUE: On September 5, 2001, sealed bids were received and opened for a construction
contract for the Orinda Trunk Sewer Cured-in-Place (CIP) Pipe Project, District Project
(DP) 5551. The Board of Directors must authorize award of the contract or reject bids
within 50 days of bid opening.
RECOMMENDATION: Authorize award of a construction contract.
FINANCIAL IMPACTS: Approximately $332,000 including contingency and construction
management.
AL TERNATIVES/CONSIDERATIONS: Reject all bids, which is not recommended.
BACKGROUND: The District began a trunk and interceptor sewer TV inspection program
in February of this year to evaluate corrosion problems in District concrete pipe. The
30-inch diameter reinforced-concrete pipe (RCP) carrying the sewer flow from the Lower
Orinda Pumping Station force main (see Attachment 1 for location) was one of the first
sewers inspected in the program. The TV inspection revealed extensive corrosion
throughout the sewer (approximately 1,020 ft.) with a serious localized problem (43 ft.)
downstream of the junction structure. Engineering staff fast tracked the design for
replacement of the worst section of the sewer, and this section was replaced in June.
Engineering staff has now designed a cured-in-place pipe liner repair for most of the
remaining 30-inch diameter (-977 ft.) reinforced-concrete pipe.
A CIP liner is a trenchless repair method, which minimizes the amount of construction
impacts, specifically, in this case, traffic impacts on Camino Pablo. Traffic impacts will be
further reduced by requiring all work that needs lane closures to be done at night. District

Subject:
AUTHORIZE AWARD OF CONSTRUCTION CONTRACT TO INSITUFORM
TECHNOLOGIES, INC., FOR THE ORINDA TRUNK SEWER CURED-
IN-PLACE (CIP) PIPE PROJECT, DISTRICT PROJECT 5551
staff will be on site at all times to insure proper traffic control. Day time work will consist
of monitoring of the pipe liner curing process, bypass pumping, and site restoration.
The plans and specifications were prepared by District staff. The engineer's estimate for
construction is $350,000. A total of two sealed bids were received and publicly opened on
September 5, 2001. A summary of bids received is shown in Attachment 2. Capital
Projects Division staff conducted a technical and commercial review of the bids and
determined that the bid submitted by Insituform Technologies, Inc., is the lowest
responsible bid at $234,435.
The District will administer the construction contract and will provide inspection, office
engineering, and shop drawing review. An initial allocation of $25,000 was made from the
Collection System Program Contingency Account. This project is included in the fiscal year
2001-2002 Capital Improvement Budget (CIB) under the Collection System Urgent Project
Program. The funds required to complete this project, as shown in Attachment 3, are
$307,000.
Staff has concluded that this project is exempt from the California Environmental Quality
Act (CEQA) under District CEQA Guidelines, Section 18.2, since it involves the repair of
an existing facility with no expansion of capacity. Authorization of the construction contract
for this project will establish the Board of Directors' independent finding that the project
is exempt from CEQA.
RECOMMENDED BOARD ACTION: Authorize the award of a construction contract in the
amount of $234,435 for completion of the Orinda Trunk Sewer CIP Pipe Project, DP 5551
to Insituform Technologies, Inc., the lowest responsible bidder.

REVIEWED AND RECOMMENDED FOR BOARD ACTION:
W. Brennan
ISSUE: Board of Directors' authorization is required for the General Manager to e
professional services agreements in amounts greater than $50,000.
RECOMMENDATION: Authorize the General Manager to execute an amendment to an
agreement with Wilson, Ihrig & Associates, Inc., adding $20,000 for professional
consulting services in connection with the noise and vibration measurement and provide
construction support during the installation of the trunk sewer on Mangos Drive and
Estero Drive in the City of San Ramon. The addition will bring the total contract amount
to $62,500. The prior contract amount of $25,000 was approved by the Board of
Directors at the award of the construction contract for the Dougherty Valley Tunnel and
Trunk Sewer Project on July 5, 2001, and was subsequently increased to a total of
$42,500.
FINANCIAL IMPACTS: The cost will be re-allocated from the existing authorized project
contingency budget.
ALTERNATIVES/CONSIDERATIONS: In order to comply with the City of San Ramon
encroachment permit, noise and vibration monitoring and related activities must continue
through the construction duration. There are no viable alternatives.
BACKGROUND: The construction contract for the Dougherty Valley Tunnel and Trunk
Sewer Project was awarded on July 5, 2001, after a delay of more than two years
because of various litigations, including litigation between the District and the City of San
Ramon over the issuance of an encroachment permit. The litigation was ultimately
resolved by a negotiated settlement agreement, and the encroachment permit was issued
by the City including a requirement on vibration and noise monitoring and mitigations. A
contract in the amount of $25,000 was negotiated with Wilson, Ihrig & Associates, Inc.
prior to the start of construction. The scope of that contract was to provide

Submitted By:

REVIEWED AND RECOMMENDED FOR BOARD ACTION:
ISSUE: The Central Contra Costa Sanitary District is required to establish its appropriations
limit in accordance with Article XIII B of the California Constitution.
RECOMMENDATION: Adopt a resolution establishing the Sewer Construction Fund
appropriations limit in the amount of $47,637,396 for the 2001-2002 fiscal year, in
accordance with Article XIII B of the California Constitution; select the change in the local
assessment roll due to local nonresidential construction, for use in computing the
appropriations limit.
FINANCIAL IMPACTS: None
ALTERNATIVES/CONSIDERATIONS: The appropriations limit could be calculated using the
California per capita personal income percentage change of 7.82 as opposed to the local
assessment roll due to local non-residential construction of 9.2 percent.
BACKGROUND: On August 9, 2001, the Board of Directors authorized posting a public
notice of availability of documentation in support of the District's appropriations limit. As
statutorily required, the public notice was made at least 15 days prior to the September
6, 2001 Board Meeting at which the adoption of the appropriations limit is recommended.
The appropriations limit is increased annually by a factor comprised of the change in
population combined with either the change in California per capita personal income or the
percentage change in the local assessment roll from the preceding year due to local
nonresidential construction. The Board must select between the per capita personal
income, or the change in the local assessment roll due to local nonresidential construction,
by a recorded vote. Last year the Board selected the change in the local assessment roll,
which was the larger of the two percentages, for the calculation of the 2000-2001
appropriations limit. This approach allowed for a larger limit on the District's proceeds of
taxes.

Board Meeting Date: September 6, 2001
Subject: ADOPT A RESOLUTION ESTABLISHING THE 2001-2002 APPROPRIATIONS LIMIT
IN ACCORDANCE WITH ARTICLE XIII B OF THE CALIFORNIA CONSTITUTION
The County Assessor has determined the nonresidential construction index for 2001-2002
to be 9.2 percent. The California per capita personal income percentage change is 7.82.
The change in the local assessment roll of 9.2 percent is being used in the calculation of
the 2001-2002 appropriations limit, to allow for a larger limit on the District's proceeds
of taxes. The Sewer Construction Fund (Capital Fund) appropriations limit so computed
is $47,637,396 for the 2001-2002 fiscal year.
The District's proceeds of taxes are budgeted to be $6,848,600 for the 2001-2002 fiscal
year. Interest on these tax proceeds are estimated to be $143,000. Therefore, total tax
proceeds plus interest is $6,991,600 which is well within the appropriations limit set for
the 2001-2002 fiscal year.
RECOMMENDED BOARD ACTION: Adopt a resolution establishing the Sewer Construction
Fund appropriations limit in the amount of $47,637,396 for the 2001-2002 fiscal year,
in accordance with Article XIII B of the California Constitution; select the change in the
local assessment roll due to local nonresidential construction, for use in computing the
appropriations limit.

ISSUE: Owners of properties on Echo Springs Road in Lafayette are interested in
connecting their homes to the Central Contra Costa Sanitary District (CCCSD) sewer
system and have requested formation of a Contractual Assessment District to finance an
extension of the public sewer system. Board approval is required for a Contractual
Assessment District (CAD).
RECOMMENDATION: Approve initiating the formation of Echo Springs Road CAD No.
2001-2.
FINANCIAL IMPACTS: There are minor administrative costs for initiating the formation of
a CAD. These costs eventually will be paid by the CAD participants if a CAD is actually
formed. If the CAD receives final approval from the Board in the future, the estimated
CAD costs are $120,000. Neighborhood representatives have been informed that the
District is concurrently processing other CAD requests and the final funding decision is
subject to budgetary constraints.
ALTERNATIVES/CONSIDERATIONS: Reject or defer initiating formation of the CAD - these
actions would halt or delay the CAD proceedings.
BACKGROUND: Owners of properties located on Echo Springs Road in Lafayette have
contacted District staff to obtain information regarding connecting their homes to
CCCSD's public sewer system. Signed forms expressing interest in investigating and
forming a CAD are on file from four of the five property owners that could be served by
an Echo Springs Road public sewer. The area where the CAD would be .formed is shown
on Attachment 1.

PROCEEDINGS FOR THE CAD
The initial steps toward creation of Echo Springs Road CAD No. 2001-2 are for the Board
of Directors to adopt a resolution indicating CCCSD's intention to designate an area within
which contractual assessments are appropriate; briefly describing the proposed financing
for the project; establishing the boundaries of the CAD; setting the time, date, and place
for a public hearing at which interested persons may inquire about or object to the
proposed program; and directing staff to prepare an Engineer's Report describing the
project and financing arrangements. Additional resolutions are required to approve the
boundary of the assessment district and to request the consent of the City of Lafayette
for CCCSD to conduct proceedings for Echo Springs Road CAD No. 2001-2.
The proposed Echo Springs Road CAD No. 2001-2 complies with the revised CAD policy
approved at the February 1, 2001 Board of Directors meeting. The CAD formation criteria
are listed below.

Staff has concluded that this project is exempt from CEOA under CEOA Guidelines
Section 15061 (b)(3), since it can be "seen with certainty that there is no possibility that
the activity in question may have a significant adverse effect on the environment." This
certainty is based on CCCSD's past experience with numerous sewer construction
projects of this nature, the relatively short distance involved, and the impact-limiting
nature of CCCSD's construction specifications that would be required of the project.
Approval of this project will establish the Board of Directors' independent finding that this
project is exempt from CEOA.
RECOMMENDATION: Authorize formation of a CAD consisting of five properties on Echo
Springs Road by:
1 . adopting a resolution of intention to create Echo Springs Road Contractual
Assessment District No. 2001-2 for the purpose of installing sewer improvements
(Exhibit 1);
2. adopting a resolution approving the boundary of the assessment district (Exhibit 2);
and
3. adopting a resolution requesting consent from the City of Lafayette for CCCSD to
conduct proceedings for Echo Springs Road CAD No. 2001-2 (Exhibit 3).

RESOLUTION OF INTENTION TO CREATE
ECHO SPRINGS ROAD CONTRACTUAL ASSESSMENT DISTRICT NO. 2001-2
FOR THE PURPOSE OF INSTALLING SEWER IMPROVEMENTS
WHEREAS the public health and the environment will be best protected by the
expansion of the public sewer system;
WHEREAS the construction and installation of a sanitary sewer pipeline, together
with appurtenant work and facilities, in areas not presently connected to the sewer
system will facilitate the elimination of potential public health problems due to failing
septic systems; and
WHEREAS it would be convenient and advantageous to establish a boundary around
an area within which CCCSD and property owners may enter into contractual assessments
and make arrangements to finance public improvements to parcels which are developed
and where the costs and time delays involved in creating an assessment district pursuant
to alternative provisions in the law would be prohibitively large relative to the cost of the
improvement.
THEREFORE, the Board of Directors of the Central Contra Costa Sanitary District
resolves:
1 . This Board intends to approve the following improvement under the authority of
the Municipal Improvement Act of 1911, as amended, to wit: construction and
installation of approximately 800 linear feet of sanitary sewer line, together with
appurtenant work and facilities located at Echo Springs Road in Lafayette,
California.
2. This Board finds that the parcels within the Contractual Assessment District are
shown within the boundaries of the map entitled, "Proposed Boundaries of Echo
Springs Road Contractual Assessment District No. 2001-2."
3. This Board intends to levy a special assessment upon participating parcels within
the described district in accordance with the special benefit to be received by
each parcel of land, respectively, from the improvement. The improvement
proposed will not confer any special benefit upon any publicly owned land.
Hence, there shall be omitted from special assessment all public streets, alleys,
and places and all land belonging to the United States, the State of California,
the City of Lafayette, and Central Contra Costa Sanitary District now in use in
the performance of a public function.
4. CCCSD intends to provide loan financing for the improvements, subject to the
availability of funds and any limitation on the commitment or expenditure of
funds for the Contractual Assessment District Program as may be established
from time to time by CCCSD's Board of Directors. Loans shall be repaid by

assessments on the property of participating parcel owners. Assessments shall
be paid over a maximum period of ten (10) years with interest at a rate to be
fixed by CCCSD.
5. The procedure for the collection of assessments will be the placement of
assessments on participating parcel owners' tax bills. The first assessments
may be placed on owners' tax bills in fiscal year 2002-2003.
6. This Board appoints Curtis Swanson, Environmental Services Division Manager,
as Engineer of Work for this project to prepare the report required by
Section 5898.22 of the Streets and Highways Code.
7. A public hearing shall be held on this matter at 2 p.m. on or about Thursday,
December 20, 2001 at CCCSD offices, 5019 Imhoff Place, Martinez. This date
is tentative and may be modified in the future.
8. The Board independently finds that this project is exempt from the California
Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) under CEQA Guidelines Section 15061 (b)(3),
since it can be "seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the activity
in question may have a significant effect on the environment." This certainty is
based on CCCSD's past experience with numerous sewer construction projects
of this nature, the relatively short distance involved, and CCCSD's impact-
limiting construction specifications that would be required of the project.

RESOLUTION APPROVING BOUNDARY MAP
ECHO SPRINGS ROAD CONTRACTUAL ASSESSMENT DISTRICT NO. 2001-2
The Board of Directors of the Central Contra Costa Sanitary District (CCCSD)
resolves:
A map entitled "Proposed Boundaries of Echo Springs Road Contractual Assessment
District No. 2001-2" has been filed with the Secretary of the Central Contra Costa
Sanitary District.
This Board approves the map and adopts the boundaries shown on the map as
describing the extent of the territory included in a proposed assessment district to be
known as Echo Springs Road Contractual Assessment District No. 2001-2, Central Contra
Costa Sanitary District, County of Contra Costa, California.
This Board intends to levy a contractual assessment upon participating parcels
within the described District in accordance with the benefit to be received by each parcel
of land, respectively, from the improvement. There shall be omitted from assessment, all
public streets, alleys, and places and all land belonging to the United States, the State of
California, the City of Lafayette, and CCCSD because it has been determined that no
special benefit will be conferred on any such land within the District.
This Board finds that the map is in the form and contains the matters prescribed by
Section 3110 of the California Streets and Highways Code.
This Board directs the Secretary of CCCSD to certify the adoption of this resolution
on the face of the map and to file a copy of the map with the County Recorder for
placement in the Book of Maps of Assessment and Community Facilities Districts.

ISSUE: License agreements with other public agencies that may have a significant i
on District operations are submitted to the Board of Directors for authorization.
RECOMMENDATION: Authorize execution of a license agreement with the East Bay
Regional Park District for the Lafayette/Moraga Trail.
FINANCIAL IMPACTS: The proposed license would be granted without fee. Risk
management considerations are included in the license. Charging a processing fee to cover
costs associated with granting the license could be considered by the Board, but is not
recommended by staff.
AL TERNATIVES/CONSIDERATIONS: Alternatives include: 1) granting a permanent
license, 2) declining to renew the license.
BACKGROUND: In 1976 the District granted the East Bay Regional Park District (EBRPD)
a no-fee 25-year license to use a portion of District property for the Lafayette/Moraga Trail
(map attached). The property was acquired by the District in 1958 after the Sacramento
Northern Railway abandoned the right of way. Subsequently, the East Bay Municipal
Utility District and Pacific Gas & Electric Company each acquired a portion of the corridor
from the District.
The EBRPD has requested a 25-year renewal of the license to continue operation of the
recreational trail. A renewal clause was included in the 1976 license conditioned upon
the mutual consent of both parties. Engineering, Collection System Operations, and Risk
Management staff, with the assistance of Legal Counsel, have updated the license to
reflect current District risk management needs. The required liability insurance amounts

to future revisions as determined by the District to adequately protect both parties. The
Collection System Operations Department conducts annual walk-through's with
representatives of EBRPD and EBMUD to identify potential use conflicts and needed repair
work. Overall, the conditions in the original license have been met and staff recommends
approval of the requested license renewal.
RECOMMENDED BOARD ACTION: Authorize the General Manager and the Secretary of
the District to execute a 25-year license with the East Bay Regional Park District for the
continued operation of the Lafayette/Moraga Trail.

THIS LICENSE, made and entered into this day of September, 2001, by and
between CENTRAL CONTRA COST A SANITARY DISTRICT, a California special district,
hereinafter called Licensor, and EAST BAY REGIONAL PARK DISTRICT, a California
special district, hereinafter called Licensee.
RECIT ALS
A. Licensor owns certain real property located in Contra Costa County, California, as shown
on the drawing marked Exhibit "A," attached hereto and made a part hereof ("Property");
B. The parties to this License had previously entered into a license, dated March 18, 1976 to
March 18, 2001 and extended until October 15, 2001, ("Original License") concerning
the Property;
C. The Original License allowed Licensee to construct, reconstruct, maintain, remove, and
use a trail, with the necessary appurtenances thereto, within the Property for the passage
of pedestrians, equestrians, and bicycles only ("Trail");
D. Licensee has constructed the Trail on the Property, since entering into the Original Lease;
and
E. Licensee indicated it wished to extend the Original License under the extension provision
of that Original License, which Licensor has agreed to do under this new License.
TERMS AND CONDITIONS
THIS LICENSE is granted by Licensor and accepted by Licensee upon the following
terms and conditions, and Licensee does hereby covenant with Licensor as follows:
1. Licensee's Use of Property is Subordinate to Licensor's Use. Licensee hereby
acknowledges the title of Licensor in and to the Property and agrees never to assail or to resist
said title. Said Property accommodates Licensor's underground public sewer mains, which are
necessary in the performance of its duties as a sanitary district. Any and all rights granted or
implied by this License shall be subordinated to Licensor's use of said Property.
2. Term of License. Unless suspended or partially revoked as hereinafter set forth, this
License to construct, operate, and maintain a trail to be used by the general public shall terminate
twenty-five (25) years from the date hereof By written mutual consent of the parties hereto, this
License may be extended for additional twenty-five (25) year terms.

...________._._,_._"___....__._.."......_.... ._.__~.._.w,.,_,__ """_____._ ----_.______"_____
3. Primary and Secondary Uses of Property. Licensor and Licensee acknowledge that
the primary use of the Property is for the purpose of operating a sanitary sewer system for the
transport of sewage and related waste through the means of transmission mains, pipes, and
related appurtenances. The use of the Property pursuant to this agreement is secondary and
subordinate to said primary use. Licensee shall not, at any time, use or permit the public to use
the licensed area in any manner that will materially interfere with or impair said primary use or
the operation, maintenance, or repair of the public sewer mains, pipes, and appurtenances.
Licensor shall have the right to temporarily suspend or to limit the use of the Property by
Licensee and the general public during such periods of time as Licensor determines that such
suspension or limitation is necessary in the interest of public safety or for the operation,
maintenance, or repair of the public sewer mains, pipes, and appurtenances. Should such
suspension or limitation be necessary, Licensor shall provide to Licensee thirty (30) days' prior
notice in writing, except in cases of emergency repairs. Upon completion of any work by
Licensor within said Property, Licensor shall restore the ground surface to its pre-existing grade,
but Licensor shall not be liable for the restoration of any facilities or improvements installed by
Licensee, including but not limited to paving, landscaping, bridges, or drainage structures.
4. Secondary Use of Property. The rights herein given are for the use of pedestrians,
equestrians, and bicycles, as well as for roller blading and similar non-motorized activities as
may be authorized by Licensee. No type of motor driven vehicle shall be permitted on the trail,
except those of the Licensee used for maintenance, patrol, or public safety measures. Licensee
shall install such barricades as are necessary to discourage unauthorized access to motor driven
vehicles and shall post signs at points of entry to the trail that such vehicles are prohibited.
Licensee shall provide such patrol service as is necessary to prevent unauthorized use of the trail.
Its failure so to do shall be a breach of this License.
5. Grading, Installing Walkway and Irrigation, and Landscaping. Licensee's
Secondary Use of Property may include minor grading installation of culverts and/or small
bridges where necessary for the crossing of drainage ditches and installation of a paved pathway
on the Property. Licensee may provide landscaping for the trail, providing that plant material
used shall be limited to the species listed on Exhibit "B" attached hereto and made a part hereof.
Additional species or plans for irrigation systems shall require the prior written consent of
Licensor's Chief Engineer or his or her Designee. Prior to the commencement of any of the
work hereinabove mentioned, Licensee shall present its plans therefor to Licensor for written
approval. All grading, construction and landscaping required to make Property suitable for
Licensee's Secondary Use shall be the responsibility of Licensee.
6. Maintenance of Property. Licensee shall maintain the surface of Property in condition
suitable for its Secondary Use. The Property shall also be kept in a clean and presentable
condition, free from waste of any sort and weeds. All maintenance, including waste removal and
weed abatement on the Property covered by this License shall be made at the expense of
Licensee. If Licensee fails to maintain the Property, Licensor shall provide Licensee with written
notification of said violation. If Licensee has not taken positive action to correct such violation
within thirty (30) days of said notification, then Licensor may perform, but is under no
Page 2 of7

obligation to do so, the necessary work at the expense of Licensee, which expense Licensee
agrees to pay to Licensor upon demand, except in the case of an emergency. In the case of an
emergency, Licensor may correct such violation without 3D-days' notice to Licensee.
7. Revocation of License to Portions of Property. In the event Licensor's Primary Use of
the Property reasonably requires some permanent use of a segment or segments of the Property
that, by the nature thereof, precludes Licensee's use thereof, Licensor may, upon six (6) months'
prior notice, revoke this License as to the area reasonably required for such permanent primary
use. Should any portion of this License be revoked, Licensor shall supply Licensee with a map
or drawing identifying the area(s) subject to the revocation, and Licensor agrees to use its best
efforts to aid Licensee in identifying an alternative route for the trail, but Licensor is in no way
obligated to provide an alternative route.
8. Indemnification. It is the intent of Licensor and Licensee that Licensee shall hold
Licensor harmless from all claims, liabilities, and costs that arise from Licensee's operation and
maintenance of the surface of the subject Property for trail purposes. It is the intent of this
License that Licensor shall not be subject to or accept any additional potential liability or costs
by virtue of permitting Licensee to operate and maintain a trail on the surface of the Property.
Further, the intent of the parties that this indemnification clause holds Licensee harmless from
claims, liabilities, and costs that arise solely from the operation of Licensor's sewering activities,
and do not arise from the Licensee's use of the surface of the Property for trail purposes.
Therefore, Licensee shall indemnify, protect, hold harmless, and defend Licensor and its
successors, transferees, assigns, officers, directors, employees, and agents, from and against all
claims, costs, damages, fines, judgments, penalties, losses, liabilities, or expenses incurred
directly or indirectly from or as a consequence of any activities conducted at or on the Property
by anyone, pursuant to Licensee's Secondary Use of Property. The foregoing indemnification
shall include, without limitation, the following: (a) personal injury claims, (b) payment of liens
(including, mechanics' or materialmen's liens), (c) sums paid in settlement of liabilities, (d)

Type of Action: AUTHORIZE AGREEMENT
No.: 6. c. ENGINEERING
Subject:
AUTHORIZE THE GENERAL MANAGER TO EXECUTE AGREEMENTS
WITH CAROLLO ENGINEERS, PSOMASAND DCM/JOYAL ENGINEERING
FOR THE DESIGN OF THE SAN RAMON SCHEDULE "C" INTERCEPTOR
AND FORCE MAIN, DISTRICT PROJECT 5554

Submitted By:
Tad Pilecki, Principal Engineer
REVIEWED AND RECOMMENDED FOR BOARD ACTION:
ISSUE: Board of Directors' authorization is required for the General Manager to execute
professional service agreements for amounts greater than $50,000.
RECOMMENDATION: Authorize the General Manager to execute agreements with Carollo
Engineers ($520,000) PSOMAS ($60,000), and DCM/Joyal Engineering ($85,000) for the
design of the San Ramon Schedule "C" Interceptor and Force Main Project.
FINANCIAL IMPACTS: The total cost of the design for the project will be approximately
$950,000. The total project cost including construction is $8,450,000. A construction level cost
will be developed as part of the project scope by December 2001.
AL TERNATIVES/CONSIDERATIONS: An alternative would be to design the project in-house,
which would be difficult to accomplish given the current workload in Engineering and the short
schedule to meet understandings reached with the City of San Ramon.
BACKGROUND: In late 1983, the District undertook planning and engineering studies for a
new interceptor to serve the southern portion of the service area. As part of this effort, the
District negotiated and purchased easements for the new interceptor within the former Southern
Pacific Railroad right-of-way from Contra Costa County. The overall San Ramon Valley
Interceptor Project consists of approximately nine miles of large diameter gravity interceptor
sewer and 2-1/2 miles of force main, which is being constructed in several schedules. The
Schedule "A" project, which stretches six miles from Sycamore Valley Road in Danville north
to Rudgear Road in Walnut Creek was completed in 1988. Schedule liB," which covers the 1-
1/2 mile section from Sycamore Valley Road south to Saint James Court in Danville was
completed in 1988. The remaining schedule of the interceptor includes 1-1/2 miles of gravity
sewer and 2-1/2 miles of force main. This schedule will extend from Saint James Court in
Danville south to the San Ramon Pumping Station and will be constructed in two phases (see
Attachment 1).

Subject:
AUTHORIZE THE GENERAL MANAGER TO EXECUTE AGREEMENTS
WITH CAROLLO ENGINEERS, PSOMAS AND DCM/JOY AL ENGINEERING
FOR THE DESIGN OF THE SAN RAMON SCHEDULE "C" INTERCEPTOR
AND FORCE MAIN, DISTRICT PROJECT 5554
With construction proceeding on the Dougherty Valley Development, flow to the San Ramon
Pumping Station is expected to increase significantly requiring installation of a new force main
to carry the flow. Understandings reached with the City of San Ramon require that construction
of the 2-1/2 miles of force main be completed by December 2002. The 1-1/2 miles of gravity
line will be needed in approximately five years.
On June 29, 2001, Requests for Proposals (RFP) for the design of the San Ramon
Schedule "C" Interceptor and Force Main were sent to five qualified professional engineering
firms: Brown and Caldwell, Carollo Engineers, Harris and Associates, HDR Engineering, Inc.,
and Winzler and Kelly. On July 20,2001, three firms responded to the RFP, and all three firms
were invited for interviews: Brown and Caldwell, Carollo Engineers and Winzler and Kelly.
Based on these interviews, Carollo Engineers (Carollo) was selected because they presented
the best overall team, costs, and technical approach. Winzler and Kelly (WK) also did very well
at the interviews, and staff proposes to utilize WK for design services associated with the M4-A
Force Main Relocation. The M4-A Force Main connects the Fairview and Maltby pumping
stations in Martinez. A position paper for engineering services associated with the M4-A Force
Main Project will be presented to the Board at a future meeting.
A professional engineering design services agreement with a cost ceiling of $520,000 has been
negotiated with Carollo for the design of the project. Carollo will prepare the detailed design
packages for both the interceptor and force main, assist District staff in obtaining permits and
coordinations with public/regulatory agencies, help formulate/conduct the public outreach
program, prepare cost estimates and constructability reviews, and provide bid assistance for
the force mains. OCM/Joyal (OCM) was selected to provide geotechnical services for the
project. Although DCM/Joyal was originally part of Carollo's project team, staff elected to
contract directly with OCM to reduce overall project costs. A professional engineering design
services agreement with a cost ceiling of $85,000 has been negotiated with OCM Engineering.
PSOMAS, located in Sacramento, was selected to provide aerial mapping services for the
project. Quotes were requested from two qualified aerial firms, and PSOMAS' quote best met
the project needs and time constraints. A technical consulting services agreement with a lump
sum of $60,000 has been negotiated with PSOMAS.
The current total project cost for the project is estimated at $8,450,000 with a construction cost
of $4,000,000 for the force main and $3,000,000 for the interceptor. The scope of work for
Carollo requires a detailed construction level cost estimate by the end of December 2001.
These costs will be used in the Board Capital Budget Workshop in January/February to
determine the appropriate course of action to fund the construction activities. There are
sufficient funds available to proceed with the design of the project

FOR THE DESIGN OF THE SAN RAMON SCHEDULE "C" INTERCEPTOR
AND FORCE MAIN, DISTRICT PROJECT 5554
On October 28, 1986 the Final Environmental Impact Report (FEIR) for the San Ramon Valley
Trunk Sewer Improvement Project was approved by the Board of Directors. Since that time,
the project area has experienced some changes that may affect the project's environmental
impacts. As project specifics are determined, the Board will be asked to consider additional
CEQA documentation to identify relevant changes and address any additional impacts..
RECOMMENDED BOARD ACTION: Authorize the General Manager to execute agreements
with Carollo Engineers in the amount of $520,000, PSOMAS in the amount of $60,000 and
DCM/Joyal Engineering in the amount of $85,000 for the design of the San Ramon Schedule

ISSUE: The District's investment policy must be reviewed and approved annually by the
Board of Directors in accordance with District Investment Policy and California
Government Code Section 53646.
RECOMMENDATION: Review, suggest any changes if appropriate, and approve the
District's investment policy.
FINAL IMPACTS: None
AL TERNATIVES/CONSIDERATIONS: Additional investment options could be added which
fall within the permissible investments prescribed by the Government Code of the State
of California, although this is not recommended.
BACKGROUND: In 1984, the California legislature amended Government Code Section
53646 to require that the treasurer or chief fiscal officer annually render to the legislative
body of the local agency a statement of investment policy, and render a monthly report
to the chief executive officer and legislative body of the local agency showing the type
of investment, institution, date of maturity, amount of deposit, current market value for
all securities with a maturity of more than 12 months, rate of interest, and such data as
may be required by the local agency.
Section 53646 remained in effect only until January 1, 1991, and as of that date was
repealed.
The California Legislature added a new Government Code Section 53646 via Senate Bill
564 as of January 1, 1996. The annual rendering of a statement of investment policy to
the governing Board for review and approval as well as a monthly investment report has
been continued since that time. These provisions were incorporated into our investment
policy.

Subject: REVIEW AND APPROVE THE STATEMENT OF INVESTMENT POLICY
The investment policy of the Central Contra Costa Sanitary District is embodied in the
following eleven sections:
I. Statement of Objectives
The temporary investment portfolio of the District will be managed to ensure that
normal cash needs, as well as scheduled extraordinary cash needs can be met.
Therefore, adequate liquidity will be the first priority. Second priority will be the
safety of the portfolio ensuring that the investments could be readily converted to
cash if needed without causing a material change in the value of the portfolio.
Lastly, the portfolio will be invested to attain a market average rate of return, after
meeting the first two previously stated objectives.
II. Permissible Investments
Within the constraints prescribed by the Government Code of the State of
California for permissible investments, the District's investment portfolio will only
be invested in the following instruments:
. United States Treasury Bills and Notes, and obligations of government
agencies for which the full faith and credit of the United States are pledged.
. Bankers Acceptances, drawn on and accepted by a commercial bank, which
are eligible for purchase by the Federal Reserve System.
. Collateralized Certificates of Deposit issued by a Federal or State chartered
bank or a Federal or State chartered savings and loan association.
. Commercial Paper of prime quality limited to corporations with assets over
$500,000,000.
. Local Agency Investment Fund of the State of California.

Board Meeting Date: September 6, 2001
Subject: REVIEW AND APPROVE THE STATEMENT OF INVESTMENT POLICY
III. Banks and Dealers
The District will use the services of the Treasurer's Office of the County of Contra
Costa which will transact the District's investment decisions in compliance with the
requirements described in this investment policy. The County Treasurer's Office
will execute the District's investments through such brokers, dealers and financial
institutions as are approved by the County Treasurer, and through the State
Treasurer's Office for investment in the Local Agency Investment Fund.
IV. Maturities
The maximum maturity for investments of the District is one year. Prior approval
of the Board of Directors must be obtained to acquire investments with maturities
beyond one year. However, investments in Treasury Notes and the Local Agency
Investment Fund would not be subject to the one year maximum maturity.
V. Diversification
To minimize the risk of loss through default, the total amount invested in a single
issuer will not be greater than 15 percent of the District's investment portfolio
value, except that the 15 percent limitation will not apply to United States Treasury
Bills and Notes and investment in the Local Agency Investment Fund.
VI. Risk
Credit and market risks will be minimized through adherence to the list of
permissible investments, a limit on maximum maturities, and the limitation on the
total investment in a single issuer.
VII. Delegation and Authority
The District Controller will be responsible for investment transactions which should
be made in accordance with this investment policy and within the internal controls
described in Section IX.

VIII. Prudence
Prudent judgement must be exercised by the District Controller responsible for
investment transactions undertaken in accordance with this investment policy.
IX. Controls
The District Controller will establish subsidiary accounting records of each
investment which will enable the determination of income earned monthly and
through maturity, and the balancing of the principal amounts to a control account
in the general ledger. Internal control procedures will require the countersignature
of the Director of Administration for all transactions which are initiated by the
Controller. The dollar limit of the Director of Administration will be $5 million.
Investment transactions which exceed $5 million will require the additional approval
of the General Manager. Such internal controls are to be reviewed by the District's
independent auditors annually.
X. Reporting
The District Controller will annually render a statement of investment policy to the
Board of Directors. The Controller will submit a monthly report to the District's
General Manager, Board of Directors and internal auditor showing the type of
investment, issuer, date of maturity, par (or face), dollar amount invested, current
market value of all securities, and the source of this same valuation, and a
statement of compliance of the portfolio with the investment policy.
XI. Performance Evaluation
A performance evaluation will be completed by the District's independent auditors
every four years, commencing with the 1984-1985 fiscal year, to determine
whether the investment objective of achieving a market-average rate of return is
being realized. In determining the market-average rate of return, the average return
of three month U.S. Treasury Bills will be used.
