ISSUE: On April 9, 1991, sealed proposals were received and opened for the construction
of District Project No. 4455, Diablo Road Sewer Improvements Project. The Board of
Directors must authorize award of the contract or reject bids within 50 days of the opening
of bids.
BACKGROUND: The Town of Danville has proposed a project to substantially widen Diablo
Road. Upon receipt of notification of this widening project, District staff evaluated the
sewer capacity along Diablo Road and determined that an increase in the capacity of the
existing sewers is necessary to meet projected wet weather flow conditions. As such,
staff completed the design of the Diablo Road Sewer Improvements Project in order to
construct the new sewers prior to the widening and final paving of Diablo Road by the
Town of Danville. The sewer project includes construction of approximately 230 linear feet
of 15-inch replacement sewer, 760 linear feet of 18-inch relief sewer, and associated
appurtenances. In addition, 2,800 linear feet of 12-inch sewer, which has been determined
through television inspection to be structurally deficient, will be abandoned. The project
location is shown on Figure 1, attached.
A Notice to Contractors inviting sealed bids was published on January 8 and 15, 1991.
Seventeen bids, ranging from $177,077 to $347,087 were received on April 9, 1991. A
summary of bids received is shown in Attachment 1. The Engineering Department
conducted a technical and commercial evaluation of the bids and concluded that the lowest
responsible bidder is Mountain Cascade, Inc. for the bid amount of $177,077. The
engineer's estimate for construction of this project is $232,200. The funds required to
complete the project are $236,000, as shown in Attachment 2. The total project cost is
anticipated to be $348,300.
The Diablo Road Sewer Improvements Project was approved by the District Board of
Directors in June 1990 as part of the fiscal year 1990-1991 Capital Improvement Budget
adoption (pages CS-28 to CS-30l. At that time the Hill Road portion of the project was
determined to be exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) under

District CEQA Guidelines, Section 18.2, since it involves a minor alteration to the existing
collection system. The Diablo Road portion was determined to be exempt under CEQA
Statute Section 21080.21, since it consists of a pipeline less than one mile in length in a
public right of way.
RECOMMENDATION: Authorize award of the contract in the amount of $177,077 for
construction of Diablo Road Sewer Improvements Project, District Project No. 4455, to
Mountain Cascade, Inc., the lowest responsible bidder.

APPROVE LICENSE AGREEMENT WITH THE EAST BAY REGIONAL

LOT IN THE MARTINEZ SHORELINE PARK AREA
DATE
TYPE OF ACTION
APPROVE AND
EXECUTE AGREEMENT
SUBMITTED BY
Dennis Hall, Associate Engineer
INITIATING DEPT.lDIV
Engineering Department/Construction Division
ISSUE: East Bay Regional Park District (EBRPD) has requested that they be allowed to construct
a public parking lot on District-owned property for users of Shoreline Park.
BACKGROUND: The District owns property (approximately 5,200 square feet) at the end of
Berrellesa Street in Martinez, 1,000 feet east of the District's Martinez Pumping Station. The
District acquired this property in conjunction with the acquisition of the Martinez sewer system.
The northern half of the District's property is encumbered by two force mains and one gravity
sewer as shown on the attached map.
EBRPD owns a parcel of land adjacent to the District's property on which EBRPD is proposing
to construct a 14-space parking lot. Approximately one-third of the paved area of the parking
lot will be located on the District's property. The portion of the District's property which will be
paved has no sewer facilities in it at this time, and no new sewer installations are planned for
the future. Hence, the paved parking lot will not interfere with the District's use of its property.
The License Agreement includes an initial term of five years and is renewable in five year
increments. The agreement requires EBRPD to indemnify this District from all claims and liability
that could result from the EBRPD's use of the license area. This agreement reserves the right
of the District to enter and use the license area for maintenance of District facilities. The License
Agreement may be terminated by either party with 60 days' prior notice. District Counsel has
reviewed and approved the subject License Agreement.
EBRPD prepared an Environmental Impact Report in 1976 titled "Martinez Waterfront Land Use
Development Plan" which included their use of the subject property as a parking lot.
RECOMMENDATION: Approve License Agreement with EBRPD, authorize the President of the
District Board of Directors and the Secretary of the District to execute said agreement, and
return executed agreement to the Park District for recordation.

ISSUE: As part of the process to establish Local Improvement District (LID) 58, various
resolutions must be adopted and a hearing date must be established to consider public
testimony on the formation of the LID and the establishment of assessments on properties
within the LID.
BACKGROUND: A group of 25 property owners living on Camino Amigo in the Town of
Danville have petitioned this District to form a LID for the purpose of financing and
constructing a public sewer system which will benefit their properties. The proposed
sewer includes approximately 1,900 feet of 8-inch sewer main which will serve the
proponents' 25 existing properties with the potential to provide service to 6 nonproponent
properties also included in the LID boundary. The 31 properties, which have been
recently annexed to the District, all have existing homes. A map showing the LID
boundary and the proposed sewer location is attached as Exhibit A.
The Board formally initiated LID proceedings on July 12, 1990, by accepting the property
owners' petitions, approving the assessment district boundary map, approving agreements
for legal and engineering services, and requesting jurisdiction from the Town of Danville
to conduct assessment proceedings.
A preliminary cost estimate for the LID improvements, including construction, engineering,
District fees and charges, bond counsel, and bonding is $255,500.00. Advertisement for
bids is scheduled for April 21 and 28, 1991. The assessments will be placed on the LID
properties after bids are received on May 29, 1 991 .
The following resolutions are presented for adoption by the Board
at this Board meeting:
o Resolution of Intention to order improvements.
o Resolution accepting the engineer's report for LID 58 and setting June 13, 1991,
as the hearing date for receiving public testimony on LID 58.
o Resolution calling for construction bids.

PAGE 2 OF 4
DATE
April 8, 1991
The public hearing which is scheduled for June 13, 1991, is required to consider
testimony on the engineer's report and any other comments by those wishing to speak.
After the hearing, the District must decide to formally approve or not approve this LID as
proposed, approve the assessments or make modifications as deemed necessary. The
assessments for the six properties whose owners have not signed petitions to form the
LID will also be determined after the public hearing. Exhibit B, Board Actions Required for
Formation of LID 58, shows other actions which have been completed or which will be
completed by the Board.
This project has been evaluated by staff and determined to be exempt from the California
Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) under CEQA Statute Section 21080.21 since it
involves the construction of a sewer pipeline less than one mile in length in a public right-
of-way. If the Board approves proceeding with this LID, a Notice of Exemption will be
filed with the County Clerk.
RECOMMENDATION: Adopt Resolutions for the following actions:
· Intention to order improvements.
· Accepting the engineer's report for the LID and setting the hearing date.

Planning Division
ISSUE: Board approval is required for adoption of a revised Source Control Ordinance.
BACKGROUND: A proposed Source Control Ordinance was mailed to 40 existing and
potentially new permitted industries on February 27, 1 991. A workshop was held on March
13, 1991, where staff presented the ordinance and responded to questions. A public
hearing on the proposed Source Control Ordinance and resolution establishing local limits
was held on March 21, 1991. At the request of representatives from Etch Tek, a printed
circuit manufacturer, the Board continued to April 18, 1991, its consideration of a proposed
Source Control Ordinance and a resolution establishing local limits. The Board requested
staff to meet with representatives of potentially affected businesses to consider their
concerns and to recommend revisions to the proposed ordinance, if appropriate.
The District received a letter from Etch Tek on April 3, 1991 (Attachment 1), and District
staff met with representatives of six industries on April 5, 1991, and April 8, 1991, to
discuss the proposed Source Control Ordinance. Staff discussed comments from industries
as well as the comments presented in Etch Tek's letter to the District at these meetings.
While not all of the industry comments were accommodated, many were resolved through
discussion and explanation and others were responded to through revisions in ordinance
language. Attachment 2 presents staff's recommendations for revisions to the proposed
ordinance which make a good faith effort to address the comments received, while
protecting the District and complying with EPA regulations.
RECOMMENDATION: Consider, revise as appropriate, and adopt the proposed Source
Control Ordinance and resolution establishing local limits.

I WANT TO THANK THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS FOR THE OPPORTUNITY TO
SUBMIT OUR COMMENTS TO THE PROPOSED TITLE 10. BASED ON YOUR

BOARD MEMBER.
C.C,C.S.D. WAS KIND ENOUGH TO PROVIDE US WITH A LIST OF ALL THOSE

ISSUE: Authorization by the Board of Directors is required for the General Manager-Chief
Engineer to execute a consulting engineering agreement in an amount greater than
$50,000.
BACKGROUND: The sewers in the Woodland Way and Los Arabis areas are old (built in
the late 1940's) and in poor condition. Significant reaches of these sewers are located in
backyard easements and require a high level of maintenance. Dry weather overflows occur
due to root intrusion and damaged pipes. Several manhole overflows have occurred in the
Los Arabis/Woodland Way Project study area during past periods of light to heavy rainfall.
The Wastewater Collection System Master Plan (October 1986) identified these sewers as
being deficient under existing conditions and a five-year storm. This project has been given
a high priority designation for sewer repair and/or replacement.
The Los Arabis/Woodland Way Facilities Plan will evaluate the sewer lines in the entire Los
Arabis/Woodland Way basin to identify the alternatives for repair and/or replacement. The
plan will include a detailed evaluation of the condition and the capacity of the pipelines
within the basin, including a review of the overflow and maintenance records and hydraulic
model results. Based upon the evaluation, pipelines requiring improvements will be
identified. Opportunities for joint projects with the City of Lafayette will be explored, per
previous correspondence with the City. Alternative methods for repair or replacement will
be recommended and an overall plan for staged construction of the improvements will be
developed for the basin. Subsequent phases of the project will include right-of-way
acquisition and preliminary and final design. The preliminary cost estimate for construction
of the proposed sewer repair/replacement is $1,100,000.
The Los Arabis/Woodland Way Facilities Plan and predesign of the proposed sewer
repair/replacement project will be prepared by James M. Montgomery Consulting Engineers
(JMM). District staff has negotiated a cost reimbursement agreement with JMM with a
cost ceiling of $73,900. JMM was selected because JMM has extensive experience in
preparing facilities plans and designing small and large diameter sewer systems, including
the Martinez Sewer Improvement Facility Plan and the Martinez Basin 5L Sewer
Renovation, DP 6411 .

DATE
April 15, 1991
This project has been evaluated by staff and determined to be exempt from the California
Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) under District CEQA Guidelines Section 18.3, since it
involves replacement or reconstruction of existing facilities involving negligible or no
expansion of capacity, except to accommodate wet weather flows. A Notice of Exemption
will be filed with the County Clerk.
More detailed information regarding the Los Arabis Drive and Woodland Way Sewer
Projects can be found in the 1990-1991 Capital Improvement Budget (pages CS 37-39).
RECOMMENDATION: Authorize the General Manager-Chief Engineer to execute a cost
reimbursement agreement with a cost ceiling of $73,900 for the Los Arabis/Woodland Way
Facilities Plan and predesign of the proposed repair/replacement sewer project, DP 4785.

Ad m inistrative/Personnel
ISSUE: Staff has analyzed its personnel needs for Fiscal Year 1991-92 and is submitting its
requests for final Board consideration and approval at the April 18, 1991 Board Meeting.
BACKGROUND: Each department has reviewed its staffing requirements for Fiscal Year 1991-92.
The Personnel Budget includes an executive summary of proposed modifications to each
department, memoranda from each department with detailed explanations on the effect of these
recommended staffing changes, and current organizational charts denoted as Figure 1 and
proposed organizational charts denoted as Figure 2.
The attached summary sheet (Attachment I) highlights each department's staffing requests, their
effect on the number of total authorized positions in the District and the additional cost in salaries,
benefits and sewer service charge. As shown in the summary, the total number of authorized
regular positions in the District would increase by 9 over last year. In addition, it is proposed that
3 temporary Junior Engineer positions be added. The 18 requested positions are partially offset
by 9 positions recommended for deletion. Also, the Collection System Operations Department is
requesting an additional student Co-op position over last year. The total Co-op positions would
equal eleven (11).
In addition to the increased number of positions, the salaries and wages in the 1991-92 0 & M
Departmental Budgets will increase from the previous year due to the following:
· Any cost-of-Iiving salary adjustments resulting from the negotiated Memoranda of
Understanding.
· Merit and longevity increases scheduled in 1991-92;
· Filling authorized positions which were vacant in 1 990-1 991 ;
· Positions authorized in 1 990-1991 which were budgeted for a partial year because of the
time required to fill positions.
On Tuesday, March 26, 1991, the Personnel Committee met to review the proposed budget. The
following Board authorizations and modifications to the District staffing charts were discussed at
that meeting. Staff presentations on the Personnel Budget were given at the April 4, 1991 Board
meeting.
