CONSENT CALENDAR Type of Action: ACCEPT GRANTS OF EASEMENTS Subject: ACCEPT GRANTS OF EASEMENTS FROM THREE PROPERTY OWNERS IN WALNUT CREEK IN CONNECTION WITH THE LAKEWOOD SEWER RENOVATION PROJECT, DP 4805 Submitted By: Ricardo Hernandez Initiating Dept./Div. : Engineering Dept./Capital Projects Div. H. Thorn W. Brennan A. Farrell REVIEWED AND RECOMMENDED FOR BOARD ACTION: ~~Od" #r w~ ~ ISSUE: Board approval is required for the District to accept Grants of Easements. BACKGROUND: The subject Grants of Easements are a continuation of the group of post- construction easements for the Lakewood Sewer Renovation Project in Walnut Creek. Five similar Grants of Easements were accepted by the Board on September 15, 1999, and have been recorded with the County Recorder. Some of the sewer segments included in the project were in properties that lacked recorded easements (map attached). The facilities were originally built via rights defined in the subdivision's Covenants, Conditions, and Restrictions. The District relied on these rights and any acquired prescriptive rights to accomplish the renovation project. The fact that these property rights were not recorded and did not appear on land titles created confusion with some owners. To avoid similar confusion with future maintenance or construction projects, staff has been perfecting the District's easement rights through these properties by recording Grants of Easements. This action will provide public notice of our easements, properly delineate their location, and define our existing rights. Letters were sent (June 21, 1999) to 14 property owners explaining our intention to document our easements. A transaction fee of $250 was offered for signed and returned Grants of Easements. In cases where the Grants of Easements are not returned, an Easement Declaration will be recorded by the District (at no charge to the District) with the County Recorder to accomplish a similar purpose. Grants of Easements from the following property owners are being presented to the Board for acceptance: Philip Austin and Carol J. Austin The Adeline Lee Revocable Living Trust Laurence T. Cromelin and Penelope S.

Staff concluded that this transaction is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) under District CEOA Guidelines Section 18.6, since it involves a minor alteration in land use limitations. Acceptance of these Grants of Easements will establish the Board of Director's independent finding that this action is exempt from CEOA. RECOMMENDATION: Accept the Grants of Easements from Philip Austin and Carol J. Austin, The Adeline Lee Revocable Living Trust, Laurence T. Cromelin and Penelope S. Brody, and authorize staff to record said Grants of Easements with the Contra Costa County Recorder. 11/9/99 H:\Design\PP\4805 Accept Easement 3.RH.wpd Page 2 of 3 g: ~ lig ~. ~~ N.T.S. 1r4A,~81-t A.

Farrell Submitted By: Joseph J. Pomroy, Assistant Engineer REVIEWED AND RECOMMENDED FOR BOARD ACTION: ISSUE: Construction has been completed to replace 100 feet of gravity sewer and rehabilitate the junction structure within the Martinez Refining Company as part of the Martinez Transmission Sewer Project, District Project 5328, and the work is now ready for acceptance. BACKGROUND: There were two portions of the Martinez Transmission Sewer Project to rehabilitate corroded gravity sewer pipelines. The first part of the project was to contract with the Martinez Refining Company (MRC) to replace 100 feet of 36-inch (M5) corroded pipeline and rehabilitate the junction structure located within their boundaries. Please refer to Attachment 1 for location of the project. The second part of the project is to replace 180 feet of 36-inch pipeline and rehabilitate structures along the same pipeline system in the public right-of-ways. That contract was awarded to 0' Arcy and Harty Construction, Inc., and is currently in construction. On September 2, 1999 the Board of Directors authorized an agreement with MRC to have its on-site contractor perform the sewer construction for a lump sum price because of the unique environmental and construction conditions present on the refining site.. The contract work was substantially complete on October 31, 1999. The remaining work consists of minor punch list items, which do not affect the project acceptance. It is appropriate to accept the work at this time. An accounting of the project cost will be provided to the Board at the time of project close out. RECOMMENDATION: Accept the work for the rehabilitation of the gravity pipeline located within Martinez Refining Company of the Martinez Transmission Sewer Project, District Project 5328. 11/3/99 L:\Position Papers\Pomroy\5328CompMRC. wpd Page 1 of 2 BOY suisufl PROJECT LOCATION o I AlHAMBRA VAllEY PLEASANT HILL BOYD RD Central Contra Costa Sanitary District MARTINEZ TRANSMISSION SEWER REHABILITATION DISTRICT PROJECT 5328 PROJECT LOCATION ATTACHMENT 1 Page 2 of 2 Central Contra Costa Sdnitary District BOARD OF DIRECTORS POSITION PAPER Board Meeting Date: November 18, 1999 No.: 4.c.

Belcher, Senior Engineer Initiating Dept./Div. : Plant Operations Department/Maintenance REWEW~OND RECOM;;~~ BOARD ACTION, i~es M. Kelly ISSUE: Construction has been completed on the Treatment Plant Substation Improvements Project, DP 6113, and the work is now ready for acceptance. BACKGROUND: The District has nine electrical substations to distribute power from the main power supply to 14 motor-control centers. Seven substations have direct-current control power to ensure safe breaker operation during times of power interruptions. The old, 125-volt, direct-current control, power systems located in seven of the nine substations at the treatment plant reached the end of their useful lives and were beginning to fail. This project replaced the old power systems with state-of-the-art Ni-Cad batteries, new chargers, and seismically designed racks. Additional information can be found in the Fiscal Year 1998-99 Capital Improvement Budget (CIB) on pages TP-85 through TP-87. The Board of Directors authorized the award of a construction contract for this work in the amount of $155,522 to California Electric Company on January 21, 1999. The contractor was issued a Notice to Proceed, which was effective May 3, 1999. The District took beneficial use on October 4, 1999, with all work being completed on October 8, 1999. It is appropriate to accept the contract work at this time. The total authorized budget for this project is $209,000. An accounting of this project will be provided to the Board of Directors at project close out. RECOMMENDATION: Accept contract work of California Electric Company for the Treatment Plant Substation Improvements Project, DP 6113, and authorize the filing of the Notice of Completion.

Klimczak ~ ~ A. Farrell REVIEWED AND RECOMMENDED FOR BOARD ACTION: ISSUE: Construction has been completed on the Ash Handling Improvements Project, DP 7186, and the work is now ready for acceptance. BACKGROUND: The furnace ash system must provide continual, uninterrupted removal of ash from the furnaces to prevent sludge disposal upsets and potential air permit violations. On-going problems with equipment breakdowns, ash pipe plugging, and a lack of back-up equipment made it increasingly difficult to keep the ash system in service. In 1996, the Furnace Continuous Improvement Team (CIT) completed an evaluation of potential furnace improvements and identified the ash system as having the highest priority. The Furnace Process Redesign Team (PRT) subsequently developed recommendations for improving the ash system and upgrading to newer, more reliable technology. The recently completed Ash Handling Improvements Project involved the installation of new ash filtration (dust collection) equipment, vacuum blowers, ash conveyance piping (designed to prevent plugging), and associated valving and instrumentation. This project also included new furnace control panels and conversion of the ash control system to programmable logic controllers (PLCs) to replace obsolete equipment. Additional information can be found in the Fiscal Year 1999-2000 Capital Improvement Budget (CIB) beginning on page TP-22; Attachment 1 shows the project location. The Board of Directors authorized award of a construction contract in the amount of $995,000 to Monterey Mechanical Co. of Oakland, California on September 17, 1998. The contractor was issued a Notice to Proceed, effective October 21, 1998, with a contract completion date of October 21, 1999. The District received beneficial use of the Ash Handling Improvements Project on September 1, 1999. The contractor achieved substantial completion of the Ash Handling Improvements Project contract work within 11/9/99 L:\Position Papers\KLlMCZAK\ 7186Accept.wpd Page 1 of 3 POSITION PAPER Board Meeting Date: November 18, 1999 Subject: ACCEPT CONTRACT WORK FOR THE ASH HANDLING IMPROVEMENTS PROJECT, DP 7186, AND AUTHORIZE THE FILING OF THE NOTICE OF COMPLETION the required contract period, with the remaining work consisting of punch list items, which do not affect project acceptance.

CONSENT CALENDAR Type of Action: COMPLETE ANNEXATION Subject: ORDER COMPLETION OF DISTRICT ANNEXATION 146, PARCELS 1 THROUGH 10 Submitted By: John Mercurio, Management Analyst Initiating Dept./Div. : Engineering/Environmental Services Division REV:ED AND RECDMMS:;[: BDARD;;; ~ J. Mercurio C. Swanson A. Farrell ISSUE: A resolution by the District's Board of Directors must be adopted to finalize District Annexation 146, Parcels 1 through 10. BACKGROUND: The District made application to the Local Agency Formation Commission (LAFCO) for the annexation of ten parcels of land designated as District Annexation 146. LAFCO has considered this request and has recommended that Parcels 1 through 10 as shown on the attachments be processed with minor adjustments. No public hearing is required and the annexation of these parcels can be completed. District staff has concluded that the subject annexation is categorically exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEOA) under District CEQA Guidelines Section 18.14 because the areas included within the annexation contain existing or private structures developed to the densities allowed by the local land-use planning agency and the extension of sewer service would have capacity to serve only those existing facilities. Approval of this annexation will establish the Board of Directors' independent finding that the annexation is exempt from CEOA. RECOMMENDATION: Adopt a resolution independently finding that the subject annexation is categorically exempt from CEQA, and ordering the completion of District Annexation 146, Parcels 1 through 10. 11/3/99 U:\PPr\Annex 146.JM.wpd Page 1 of 10 f>~ ~~ Slij ! ~ ii I ; , ~! ~I i i h I (Ii J ~ ~ II-~~ ~ lis ~ II I ~ t ~ ill; . . . @I! . \\0 Ii! ........L- Z ~ Ii Ii u6p'WSO-ao.,:l\dowx,~~\:~O t:! d66l-lldVoot \ \ \ \ . ~ ~ III 03' a:: \ _ 0 \ l=,.. <l( \ (I) ~ \ - Z % \ ~ 0 ~ · . <( _ ell \ Co) \ !:: I- Q \ i \ z ~ III ~III IS III I <( III ... \ \ ~ Z :t <l( (I) 0 Q I oZ \ \.

Submitted By: Ricardo Hernandez, Engineering Assistant Initiating Dept./Div. : Engineering/Capital Projects REVIEWED AND RECDMME~~OR BOARD ACTION, -~i\"d" ~)sw'""" ~ ISSUE: A public hearing must be conducted and a Resolution of Necessity adop d to initiate eminent domain (condemnation) proceedings for acquisition of public easements. BACKGROUND: Staff has been negotiating with the Royale Ridge Homeowner's Association, San Ramon, to acquire right of way needed for the Dougherty Tunnel and Trunk Project. The current Capital Improvement Plan (pages CS-35 through CS-38) describes the purpose of the proposed tunnel and trunk sewer as the means of conveying wastewater from the planned 11 ,OOO-unit Dougherty Valley developments to the San Ramon (Larwin) Pumping Station. The subject right of way consists of a permanent subsurface only easement for the tunnel portion and of a surface and subsurface easement for the tunnel portal (map attached). The trunk sewer portion of the project is planned for construction through city surface streets. Although negotiations with representatives for the Homeowner's Association are continuing, staff considers it appropriate to proceed with the commencement of eminent domain action to acquire the needed easements in time to meet the scheduled construction in mid-2000. Staff is prepared to present evidence at the public hearing to show that this public improvement project meets all of the following criteria: 1. The public interest and necessity require the project; 2. The project is planned or located in a manner that will be most compatible with the greatest public good and the least private injury; 11/1 0/99 U :\Admin\Ferguson\sethear .ppr Page 1 of 3 POSITION PAPER Board Meeting Date: November 18, 1999 Subject: ESTABLISH DECEMBER 16, 1999, AT 2 P.M.

HEARINGS Type of Action: CONDUCT PUBLIC HEARING AND ADOPT ORDINANCE Subject: CONDUCT A PUBLIC HEARING ON PROPOSED CHANGES TO SMALL BUSINESS CHARGES FOR HOUSEHOLD HAZARDOUS WASTE COLLECTION FACILITY SERVICES AND ADOPT AN ORDINANCE APPROVING THE PROPOSED SCHEDULE OF CHARGES EFFECTIVE DECEMBER 1, 1999 Submitted By: Tim Potter, Source Control Program Superintendent Initiating Dept./Div. : Engineering/Environmental Services Division GQ::tt~:D RECDMM€fr:: BOARD A%r ISSUE: A public hearing is required to receive public comments on proposed changes to the schedule of charges for small businesses that use the services at the Household Hazardous Waste Collection Facility (HHWCF). BACKGROUND: On August 6, 1998, the CCCSD Board of Directors passed Ordinance Number 206 establishing hazardous waste handling and disposal charges for eligible small businesses to pay when they use the services of the HHWCF. The Conditionally Exempt Small Quantity Generators (CESQG) rates were set to recover the incremental cost of disposal of the wastes delivered to the HHWCF by the business customer. The packaging method and the transportation/disposal cost per container charged to CCCSD are used to calculate this incremental cost of disposal. Changes to either the packaging method or disposal charges can prompt a c~ange to the CESOG fees. Since passage of Ordinance Number 206, several changes have occurred which reduce the CESOG fees that small business should be charged. Examples of these changes include: . Reduced charges by Phillips Services Corporation (PSC) for certain types of waste transported under the contract with them; . Alternative packaging methods to take advantage of lower charges for larger shipping containers; . Recently completed and planned improvements to the HHWCF that have or will provide for more efficient handling of hazardous wastes; and 1111 0/99 U:\PPr\Raposa\Conduct.PHfor CESQG. wpd Page 1 of 5 POSITION PAPER Board Meeting Date: November 18, 1999 Subject: CONDUCT A PUBLIC HEARING ON PROPOSED CHANGES TO SMALL BUSINESS CHARGES FOR HOUSEHOLD HAZARDOUS WASTE COLLECTION FACILITY SERVICES AND ADOPT AN ORDINANCE APPROVING THE PROPOSED SCHEDULE OF CHARGES EFFECTIVE DECEMBER 1, 1999 . Alternative vendor used to recycle propane cylinders at a lower price than PSC's services. The proposed modifications to the charges are presented in Exhibit A titled "Schedule of Hazardous Waste Handling and Disposal Charges for Conditionally Exempt Small Quantity Generators." Under the proposed modifications, the charges for eight different classifications of hazardous wastes are being reduced. The reductions range from 4% to 50% of the existing charges. The proposed charges were distributed to the Board on November 4, 1999. As reported on November 4, 1999, staff recommended holding the charge for antifreeze at its current rate. During fiscal year 1998-99, $9,000 in revenue were generated from the CESOG charges which represents less than 1 % of the HHWCF's operating budget. The reduction in revenue from the CESOG customers will depend on the types of wastes delivered to the HHWCF and is anticipated to range from 10% to 20%. The column titled "Example Waste Materials" in Exhibit A has been modified to clarify the applicable charges to be used for certain types of flammable wastes. The bulking of certain types of flammable liquids is being pursued at the HHWCF and should be operational during this fiscal year before the rates for fiscal year 2000/01 are established. A proposed unit charge for flammable liquids that will be eligible for bulking is included in Exhibit A to enable staff to charge customers a rate based on the bulking packaging method. The rate is qualified with a footnote to record the conditions when the charge for bulked wastes will apply. RECOMMENDATION: Conduct a public hearing on the proposed schedule of CESQG Charges for small businesses that use the services of the HHWCF identified in Exhibit A. Approve the proposed schedule of CESQG charges and adopt an ordinance to implement the schedule effective December 1, 1999. 1111 0/99 U:\PPr\Raposa\Conduct.PHfor CESQG. wpd Page 2 of 5 <! !::: a:l ::I: X w ,,~ Z...J(/) ...J<!a:: OZO ZO.... <!~<!

Pearl, Plant Maintenance Division Manager Initiating Dept./Div. : Plant Operations/Maintenance Division/Pumping Stations Section REVIEWED AND RECDMMENDED FOR BOARD AC:ON' @ .I. t!'h~~ lJ/e ~< ,dJA!J/~- J. Pearl J. Kelly ~ P. Morsen ISSUE: Board authorization is required to create and delete positions, establish salary ranges, and adopt new job classification descriptions. BACKGROUND: Pumping Stations' staff has historically included a Pumping Stations Superintendent, two Pumping Stations Supervisors, and six Pumping Stations Operators at the 1/11 level, for a total staffing complement of nine. As a result of the retirement and the deletion of one Pumping Stations Supervisor position last year, the presently authorized staff is one Pumping Stations Superintendent, one Pumping Stations Supervisor, and six Pumping Stations Operators at the 1/11 level, for a total authorized staff of eight. The remaining supervisor position is currently vacant. These staffing changes have taken place during a time of extensive construction work and the addition of another remote station. The present Pumping Stations Superintendent has been in his position approximately one year. Restructuring this group will move much of the daily decision-making responsibilities to the front-line personnel responsible for the performance of the Pumping Stations, and will promote more self-direction. Over the past year, staff has successfully demonstrated their ability to work independently in the field, taking ownership of these facilities and the responsibility for facilities operation. Many of the daily operation and maintenance activities require coordination but not direct supervision. Thus, it is proposed that two lead positions of Pumping Stations Operator III be created and filled through the Personnel Advancement Policy, as outlined in the present Memorandum of Understanding between Central Contra Costa Sanitary District (CCCSD) and the Employees' Association, Public Employees Union Local 1. Establishing this position would 11/9/99 S:\Correspondence\POSPAPR\ 1999\PumpStn 1 .JCP. wpd Page 1 of 1 2 POSITION PAPER Board Meeting Date: November 1 8, 1 999 Subject: CREATE AND ADD TWO PUMPING STATIONS OPERATOR III POSITIONS (G-68, $4,257 - $5,152) AND ADOPT THE JOB CLASSIFICATION DESCRIPTION.

As work group duties are realigned after these positions are put into place, the need for a third Pumping Stations Operator III will be evaluated. The concept of a "lead Pumping Stations Operator" in this section has been presented to the District Board Personnel Committee and approved. The proposed job classification description for the Pumping Stations Operator III position and the modified job classification descriptions for the Pumping Stations Operator 1/11 are attached. Also attached is an organization chart showing the present and proposed organization for the Pumping Stations Section. The Employees' Association, Public Employees Union Local 1, has been notified of these changes. RECOMMENDATION: Create and add two Pumping Stations Operator III positions (G-68, $4,257 - $5,152). Adopt the job classification description. Delete one Pumping Stations Supervisor position (5-71, $4,593 - $5,556). Delete two Pumping Stations Operator 1/11 positions (G-59 and G-64, $3.437 - $4,158 and $3,873 - $4,685). Modify the Pumping Stations Operator 111I job classification description.
