Engineering Dept.llnfrastructure Div. ISSUE: Easements which are granted by other public agencies require specific approval by the Board of Directors. BACKGROUND: The subject easement is for the off-site sewers which will serve an office building complex being developed by Sunset Development Co. The County has agreed to grant the required easement subject to several conditions. The District accepted easements from the County in 1 988 in conjunction with the San Ramon Valley Interceptor Project which have the same conditions as the subject easement. The conditions are reasonable while they afford protection to the County for the future use of their property as a transportation corridor. The conditions are in agreement with the Districts usual operating procedures as included in our Standard Specifications. There is no relocation clause in the subject easement. The Developer has paid the county's easement processing fee. This project (the proposed agreement) has been evaluated by staff and determined to be exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) under District CEQA Guidelines Section 18.6, since it involves a minor alteration in land use limitations. RECOMMENDATION: Approve and execute Grant of Easement from Contra Costa County, Job No. 4895, Parcel 1 (Subparcels A & B), and authorize the Grant of Easement to be recorded.

Engineering Dept.lConstruction Division ISSUE: LAFCO has amended the boundaries of several of the parcels included within District Annexation 120. The District must hold public hearings and consider testimony by affected property owners before acting on the proposed amended annexation. BACKGROUND: The above-referenced annexation was sent to LAFCO as required for he formal annexation process. Part of the annexation, consisting of seven parcels, was not changed. These seven unamended parcels are submitted for Board action on the consent calendar for today under a separate position paper as District Annexation 120. No public hearing is required for these parcels because they had 100 percent landowner consent. LAFCO amended the boundaries of the three remaining parcels during its approval process. These amendments were made to improve the continuity of the resulting District boundary. The amended annexations are designated District Annexation 120-A, parcels 6,7 and 8 and are considered to be three separate annexations. Of the three amended annexations, all are uninhabited. These parcels are shown on the attached maps. CEOA REOUIREMENTS A Negative Declaration addressing the proposed annexations was prepared by LAFCO pursuant to CEOA and was used by LAFCO in making its determinations and approving this annexation. In accordance with District CEOA Guidelines Section 7.17 (f), the Board must review and consider the environmental effects of the project as shown in the Negative Declaration which is attached as Exhibit A in the separately bound document before approving the annexation.

IIIIIIIIIIIIII!IIIIIIII' PAGE DATE 2 OF 6 July 24, 1992 ANNEXATION REQUIREMENTS District Annexation 120 as submitted to LAFCO was a single annexation. The action by LAFCO separated a portion of District Annexation 120 into the subject three uninhabited annexations, which require a public hearing. Normally a separate public hearing would be held for each of these three subject annexations. If no members of the public appear, these annexations can be considered in one public hearing. If a member of the public wishes to testify on a particular annexation, a separate public hearing shall be held on the annexation. The remaining annexations will then be the subject of the second or subsequent public hearing. Legal notice was published, and the affected property owners were notified of the public hearings as required by law. The subject three amended annexations are uninhabited (fewer than 12 registered voters). Factors to be considered by the Board in deciding to approve or disapprove the proposed annexations are set forth as Attachment No.1. Following its review, the Board, not more than thirty (30) days after the conclusion of the public hearing, shall adopt a resolution reflecting the appropriate-action taken.

David R. Williams, Planning Division Manager Engineering Department/Planning Division ISSUE: Authorization by the Board of Directors is required for the General Manager-Chief Engineer to execute professional service agreements for amounts greater than $50,000. BACKGROUND: The California Toxic Hot Spots and Assessment Act of 1987, Assembly Bill (AB) 2588, required publicly-owned treatment works (POTWs) to prepare emission inventory plans and reports to be submitted to their local air quality management district. Most POTWs in the Bay Area had little experience with air regulations and were uncertain as to the best way to respond to the requirements of AB 2588 (Air Toxic "Hot Spots"). As a result, a group of POTWs, which later became known as the Bay Area Air Toxics (BAA T) Group, decided to take a collective approach in dealing with the Bay Area Air Ouality Management District (BAAOMD) on meeting the requirements of AB 2588. In spring of 1989, the BAAT Group sent out requests for proposals and interviewed consultants to work with the group's member POTWs and serve as a liaison with BAAOMD. CH2M Hill was selected for the work and was successful in assisting the group's 46 members in developing and implementing a cost-effective approach to meeting the requirements of AB 2588. The funding for CH2M Hill's work was paid by the members of the BAAT Group, based on the size of their treatment facility. CH2M Hill's work was directed by a steering committee comprised of BAA T Group members. Since 1989, CH2M Hill has completed several scopes of work for the BAAT Group. In the process, the CH2M Hill project manager and his staff, along with the BAAT Steering Committee, have developed a very good working relationship with BAAOMD staff. , With the recent proliferation of air regulations, the BAA T Steering Committee feels that it would be worthwhile to have CH2M Hill continue to provide assistance in responding to new and proposed air regulations. A Scope of Work has been developed with CH2M Hill, which includes continued coordination with BAAOMD on matters such as the draft Best Available Control Technology (BACT) Workbook, proposed I.C. Engine Rule, and the Toxic Air Contaminant New Source Review Rule, preparation of newsletters and bulletins for distribution to the BAA T membership to keep them abreast of current and pending air regulations, coordination with other POTW organizations such as the Pooled Emission Estimation Program (PEEP), Joint Emissions Inventory Program (JEIP), Tri- T AC, Multi-Agency Task Force, Water Environment Research Foundation (WERF), California Water Pollution control Association (CWPCA), and California Association of Sanitation Agencies (CASA) on issues of mutual interest, and presentations and attendance at BAA T Steering REVIEWED AND RECOMMENDED FOR BOARD ACTION INITIATING DEPTJDIV. ~~UJ /141 . f~/ f.J;f> 1302A-7/91 DRW RAB ~-----'---'---------'------'._-'-'~"-"-"-~-_._'-"-"-~---_.

An agreement has been negotiated for CH2M Hill to provide these services at a cost not to exceed $75,300. The District's share of this total contract amount is estimated to be $5,000. The exact amount will vary depending upon the number of BAA T Group members who elect to proceed with this additional scope of services. Administration of the BAA T contract rotates among members of the Steering Committee. Union Sanitary District assumed the responsibility of contract administrator for the consultant's contract during the Fiscal Years 1989-90 and 1990-91. The contract administration was transferred to Central Contra Costa Sanitary District (District) for Fiscal Year 1991-92. The BAAT Group has asked the District to continue the administration duties for the consultant contract for Fiscal Year 1992-93 on behalf of the BAA T Group membership. Staff proposes that the District enter into a consulting services agreement with CH2M Hill on behalf of the BAA T Group membership. RECOMMENDATION: Authorize the General Manager-Chief Engineer to execute a cost reimbursement agreement with a cost ceiling of $75,300 with CH2M Hill for consulting services on issues involving air pollution control regulations. 1302B-7/91 -----.---------.----..-----...--..-..--r.... .--..----.----..----.-....----..-..-.-....----.--.... -...------..-- ~ Central ~~~~~ g~~~R~~~~a~~ Jistrict PAGE 1 OF 2 POSITION PAPER BOARD MEETING OF August 6, 1992 NO. 6.

ISSUE: Authorization by the Board of Directors is required for the General Manager Chief Engineer to execute a professional services agreement in an amount greater than $50,000. BACKGROUND: The Martinez sewer system was annexed into the District in 1967, in 1 970 the Martinez, Fairview, and Maltby Pumping Stations were placed into service to convey wastewater from Martinez to the District treatment plant. The old Martinez Treatment plant, which was over 20 years old at that time, was converted to operate as a pumping station. The Fairview and Maltby Pumping Stations were new facilities at that time. Capacity and safety deficiencies at the three pumping stations were identified in the District- wide Pumping Station Master Plan which was completed in March 1989. A detailed evaluation of pumping station improvement alternatives was conducted under the Martinez Pumping System Improvement Study which was completed in March 1990. The recommended improvements at the Fairview and Maltby Pumping Stations are now under construction. Design of a replacement Martinez Pumping Station was begun at the same time as the Maltby and Fairview Pumping Stations. Concern about the high level of impending capital expenditures in the 1 991-92 Capital Improvement Budget led to a decision to postpone the Martinez Pumping Station replacement and proceed with a much smaller scale interim improvements project. Consequently, the Martinez Pumping Station design was stopped at the 50% level and $750,000 was reserved in the 1992-93 Capital Improvement Budget for the interim improvements project. Two recent developments caused a reconsideration of delaying the Martinez Pumping Station replacement project. First, the interim improvements project does not appear to be cost effective. The original concept was to provide interim improvements that would keep the existing pumping station operational for a few years and that would be re-usable in the new pumping station. Further evaluation has revealed that the existing Martinez Pumping Station will require substantial improvements to stay in service that will not be re-usable. Second, the reduction of the Headworks Project Cost and the current favorable bidding climate offer an A IN~T/DIV REVIEWED AND RECOMMENDED FOR BOARD ACTION ~ 1302A-9/B5 CS ~JSM RAB SUBJECT AUTHORIZE EXECUTION OF AN AGREEMENT WITH G.S.

Staff now proposes to proceed with completion of design and construction of the new Martinez Pumping Station during fiscal years 1992-93 and 1993-94. The estimated total project cost for the new Martinez Pumping Station is $4.8 million. Staff recommends that the design of the new Martinez Pumping Station be completed by G.S. Dodson and Associates. G.S. Dodson and Associates prepared the Pumping Station Master Plan, the preliminary and 50% designs of the Martinez Pumping Station, and the design of improvements to the Maltby and Fairview Pumping Stations. A cost reimbursement agreement to complete final design has been negotiated with G.S. Dodson and Associates with a cost ceiling of $263,600. The Martinez Pumping Station Improvement Project is included in the 1992-93 Capital Improvement Budget (pages CS-50 to CS-52). The budgeted total project cost is $6,891,000. A negative declaration for the Martinez Pumping Station Improvements was adopted by the Board of Directors on March 5, 1992, pursuant to the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). A notice of determination was filed with the County Clerk.
