BIDS AND AWARDS 1 D~TE January 15~ 1987 AUTHORIZE AWARD OF CONTRACT FOR REMODELING OF THE WALNUT CREEK OFFICE FACILITY (DP 20047) AND AUTHORIZE EXPENDITURE FROM THE SEWER CONSTRUCTION FUt-D TYPE OF ACTION AUTHORIZE AW ARD AUTHORIZE FUNDS s~r~.o 'lYaverty Purchasing & Materials Officer INITIATING DEPT./DIV. Administrative/Purchasing ISSUE: On December 30~ 1986~ sealed bids for District Project 20047~ remodeling of ~pper portion of the Walnut Creek facility~ were received and opened. The Board of Directors must award the contract or reject the bids within forty-five days of the public opening. BACKGROUND: During January 1983~ the District's general offices were relocated from the Walnut Creek facility to Martinez. At that time~ it was decided to remodel the lower portion of the facility for use by the Collection System Operations Department (CSO) and eventually lease the upper portion of the facil ity. The lower portion remodeling was completed~ and CSO occupied it in February 1985. In October 1984, the Board authorized the leasing of the upper portion of the Walnut Creek facility. Due to the soft commercial rental market in the Walnut Creek area, a tenant was not found for nearly two years. At the October 16, 1986 Board meeting, the Board authorized staff to execute a lease with the American Cancer Society for leasing of the upper portion of the facil ity. At that meeting, $23,000 was authorized for architectural design work by Perry Haviland Associates and HVAC/electrical work by Lars Fagerstrom Consulting Engineers, Inc. The two firms were to prepare plans and technical specifications for the remodeling work necessary to accommodate the tenant improvements and required District work on the HVAC/electrical systems. Upon completion of the plans and technical specifications by Haviland and Fagerstrom, the Notice to Contractors inviting bids was published on December 16 and 21, 1986. Sealed bids were publicly opened on December 30, 1986. The tabulation of all bids received appears on Attachment I. The lowest responsible bidder is Malpass Constructi on Company of Pl easant Hill, Cal iforni a, which bi d a 1 ump sum amount of $218~500. This project will include $20,000 for personnel stairs and security fencing in the north parking area, and installation of one new air chiller. This work was originally identified in the lower portion (CSO) remodeling work project and $21,057 of these funds still remain in this project for completion of this work. The work was not included in the lower portion remodeling project plans and specifications because of the possibility of having to rework this new construction due to future tenant requested improvements. This work was included in the Bid Request and will be part of this contract award. REVIEWED AND RECOMMENDED FOR BOARD ACTION SUBJECT AUTHORIZE AWARD OF CONTRACT FOR REMODELING OF THE WAlNUT CREEK OFFICE FACILITY (DP 20047) AND AUTHORIZE EXPENDITURE FROM THE SEWER CONSTRUCTION FUND POSITION PAPER PAGE? OF DATE A .1;0 n 1I::Ii rv 1". 1 QA7 The post design estimate of the work was $156,000 which is $62,500 less than the actual bid price of $218,500. Staff initiated a discussion with the District's architect and the potential contractor to determine in which areas of the scope of work the major cost differences could be found. One area ($28,000 difference) is the electrical work needed to change the 400 amp to a 600 amp service. The service work requires replacing of all wiring fran the transformer located on the street, installing new service conduits, and installing a new service entrance panel in the mechanical roan. Contractor stated that there are trenching problems, installation probl ems associ ated with the mechani ca 1 room and, because hi s el ectrical subcon- tractor's work is a major portion of the total job, he would have a full time supervisor on hand to monitor their work. Another cost area ($17,000 difference) is the work requi red to remove the enti re hall way and two roan cei 1 i ngs to allow for the removal, then reinstallation of the duct systems and suspended ceilings. Another cost ($15,500 difference) is in the combined areas of wood refinishing, painting, and carpeting. It is hoped that a reduction in the finishing costs could be worked out with the successful contractor based on a value engineering analysis. A summary of the funds required for this project is shown on Attachment II. The total additional funds required to complete Project 20047 is $199,976. The District will be able to recover the cost of this project within a 3 year 10 month period of time. Even though about 50 percent of the total cost of this project is attributabl e to work on the facil ity to meet the basic el ectrical and mechanical requirements of the District's CSO facility, the lease income of $64,860 per year from our tenant will cover the total remodeling costs. In fact, over the probable length of the lease of ten years, the District's lease income will be at least $648,000 with a potential of a higher return based upon a contractual inflation rate adjustment in April 1992. This project is exempt from CEQA under Section 18.2 of the District's guidel ines, and the Notice of Exemption was filed in October 1986. RECOMMENDATION: Authorize award of the contract for construction of District Project 20047 to Malpass Construction Company in the amount of $218,500 and authorize $199,976 from the Sewer Construction Fund. --------- 13028-9/85 ........

John Larson, Manager Collection System Opera~lons ISSUE: Bids were received and opened on January 8, 1987, for furnishing and installing a high velocity sewer cleaning unit. Board authorization is needed to award the purchase order. BACKGROUND: The Board authorized the purchase of a trucK-mounted high velocity sewer cleaner as part of the 1986-87 Equipment Budget. The trucK cab ana chassis has been purchased by the Distrlct to take advantage of price concessions offer~d by the manufacturers. The purchase ana ins~al1at10n of the high veloci"ty sewer cleaning unit will complete the work. The estimated cost of the unit was $52,000. The request for bids was pUOlicly advertised on December 17, 1986 and bids were publ icly opened on January 8, 1987. The three bi ds that were received are summarized: COMPANY TOTAL INSTALLED PRICE Arata Equipment Company 3T Equipment Company Flexible Systems $46,835.98 50,257.35 53,309.64 The technical portions of the bid were evaluated by the Collection System Operations Department and the commercial portions were evaluated by the Purchasing and Materials Control Section. A summary of the commercial evaluation is included as Attachment 1. The bid received from Arata Equipment Company is not responsive to the technical specifications in three major areas. It can only carry 800 feet of hose while 1,000 feet were specified to meet actual field conditions. The hose reel is located on the ri ght si de of the trucK requi ri ng greater traffiC control whil e working. Hinged doors require more room while working in traffic. The smaller hose reel would reduce productivity while tne reel location and door configuratlOn would adversely aftect employee safety. Commercially, Arata Equipment Company has taken exception to the 60-day de11very requirement. They state their delivery time as 60 to 120 days. REVIEWED AND RECOMMENDED FOR BOARD ACTION SUBJECT POSITION PAPER AUTHORIZATION TO AWARD PURCHASE ORDER FOR $50,257.35 TO 3T EQUIPMENT COMPANY FOR FURNISHING AND INSTALLING A HIGH VELOCITY SEWER CLEANING UNIT PAGE DATE ? OF '=l J anuarv B. 1 9R7 There are no major technical or commercial problems with the bid received from 3T Equipmen~ Company. The line item buaget amoun~ for the high velocity sewer cleaner and trucK chassis is $75,000. The actual cos't will be $80,200. The additional cost is due to the purchase of a heavy duty high pressure water pump tha't was iden'tlfled during prepara~ion of the technical speciflca~ions. This pump will signiflcan'tly reduce future opera'ti on and mal ntenance cos'ts. There are adequate funas avail ab I e to cover the increased cos~. RECOMMENDATION: Reject the bid received from Ara~a Equipment Company on the basis that it is nonresponsive to the Bid Reques~ and authorize the award of a purchase order for $50,257.35 to 3T Equipment Company for furnishing and ins~alling a high velocity sewer cleaning unit.

Engineering Department/ Construction Division ISSUE: GSF Energy_ Inc. (GSF) has requested permission to install four pipelines over the District's outfall sewer and across land owned by the District. Board approval is required for the execution of license agreements. BACKGROUND: The proposed pipelines will become a part of the GSF landfill gas recovery operation at the Acme Fill site. The landfill gas has been used by the District since Aprll_ 1982 to provide supplemental fuel for the multiple hearth furnaces and to fire the auxiliary boilers. GSF proposes to install four polyethylene pipes (1"_ 2"_ 6" and 16" in diameter) which will cross the District's property and the outfall at right angles. The location of the crossing is presented on Attachment 1 to this Position Paper. The legal arrangement with GSF for the pipeline crossing will take the form of a license agreement. The agreement requires construction procedures to protect the structural integrity of the District's outfall. The proposed pipel ines will be installed over the outfall with a minimum 12-inch clearance between the top of the outfall and the bottom of the pipelines. Surface markers will be installed to designate the precise location of the pipes. Isolation valves to take the proposed pipelines out of service will be installed on the pipelines on each side of the outfall. Equipment will not be permitted over the outfall pipeline during construction. All construction work will be observed by District personnel. GSF will reimburse the District for observation costs involved. The term of the license is an initial five year period and automatically extends for additional five year periods unless either party cancels the license. GSF is required to pay $100 per year in advance for this license. District Counsel has reviewed the license and approved it as to form. The entering into the license agreement is not a project as defined in Section 20.29 of the local guidel ines established for the California Environmental Quality Act.

Construction Division/ Engineering Department ISSUE: All work has been completed on the Storm Damage Repair Project at Raintree Place, Lafayette, and this project can now be closed out. BACKGROUND: This project was needed to repair an 8-inch sewer pipe crossing Rel iez Cre~k behind 926 Raintree Place, Lafayette that was damaged during the winter storms of 1982-1983. This creek crossing serves approximately 90 properties. The contract work included the replacement of 90 lineal feet of buried 8-inch clay pipe on each side of the creek crossing and the installation of 100 lineal feet of box girder and 8-inch cement-lined steel pipe hung from the box girder to cross the creek. Two new manhol es and box gi rder supports were constructed and the abandoned creek crossing pipe and structures were removed. The contractor, Pacific Mechanical Corporation of Concord, commenced work on October 1, 1986, and was substantially complete with the work by the November 1, 1986 contract completion date. The project was accepted by the Board on November 20, 1986. The engineer's estimate for the construction project was $66,600. Pacific Mechanical Corporation's original construction contract was for $57,630. There were no change orders issued for the project. The total budget for the project was $83,955. The total completed project cost was $74,439, which is $9,515 less than the budget. Staff is closing out the project which will result in $9,515 being returned to the Sewer Construction Fund.

BACKGROUND: This project consisted of slide damage repairs at two locations within the District. (See Attachment Nos. 1 and 2.) The Hillcrest Drive, Orinda, sl ide repair work was needed to repair a hillside that was damaged by the heavy rains during the 1982-1983 winter. The work consisted of excavating approximately 1,000 cubic yards of loose material from the slope and reusing it as engineered fill. A subdrain system was installed to take ground water to the street and 90 lineal feet of an existing 6-inch clay pipe sewer in the sl ide area was replaced with 6-inch ductile iron pipe and a new rodding inlet structure was installed. Two existing side sewers were reconnected and the entire work area was hydroseeded. The two property owners affected by the slide repair contributed money to the repair and have signed release forms approved by District Counsel. The Moraga I-A slide repair work was the completion of a project which began in 1985 to repair the damaged slope near the District's 27-inch trunk sewer located along Las Trampas creek in Moraga. The work consisted of excavating and grading approximately 300 cubic yards of material on the existing slope and installing 66 gabion mattresses (6'x9'x9") filled with rock on the graded slope to protect it from erosion. Various other drainage improvements were made to direct the surface run-off water away from the slope. The contractor, Fanfa, Inc., of San Lorenzo, commenced work on September 22, 1986, and finished the work on both projects ahead of schedule on October 29, 1986. This was two weeks before the November 11, 1986 contract completion date. The projects were accepted by the Board on November 20, 1986. The Engineer's Estimate for the two projects was $141,700. Fanfa's original construction contract was for $126,395. The total contract amount paid to Fanfa, Inc. was $136,405. There were two change orders totaling $6,230 issued for extra work at the Hillcrest Drive site. The contract amount was further increased by an additional $3,780 because of an increase in the quantity of import soil paid at contract unit prices. No change orders were issued on the Moraga Slide I-A portion of the contract.

The District considered two consulting firms to provide predesign and final design services for the project. MacKay & Sanps, a Concord-based consulting firm, was selected because of their familiarity with the site, the existing utilities in the area and the District's standards, and their ability to meet the project schedule. The consultant will evaluate alternative pipeline alignments, provide detailed trunk sewer design, and furnish the District with complete project drawings and technical specifications. District staff will oversee the consultant's work, provide surveys, prepare integrated "front-end" specifications of the contract documents, and solicit bids. To undertake and complete the design phase of the project, $27,000 is required as detailed in Attachment 2. The prel iminary estimate of the total project cost is $244,000, excluding any cost of easement acquisition. This project is identified as "Clyde Area Sewer Improvements" in the Priority A List of the Capital Improvement Plan. Completion of the project is scheduled for the 1987 construction season. A Negative Decl aration for the proposed North Concord/Clyde Sewage Collection System Improvements Project was adopted in August 1985. The District concluded that the proposed project will not have a significant effect on the environment.

BACKGRCllND: The Wal nut Creek Downtown Bypass ("Bypass") Project consists of construction of 10,400 feet of 66- and 72-inch trunk sewer within the Southern Pacific Rail road right-of-way in the City of Wal nut Creek, between Arroyo Way and Rudgear Road. The design and construction of the trunk sewer has been split into two phases to coi nci de with the Army Corp of Engi neers' work on the San Ramon Creek Bypass Flood Control Channel. Constructi on of Phase 1 has begun and is scheduled for completion in fall of 1988. Phase 2 is the last segment of the "Bypass" design and construction necessary to connect the future San Ramon Valley flows to the District's collection system. The connection of these two important projects will solve capacity problems in both the San Ramon Valley and Walnut Creek areas. Phase 2 is scheduled for construction in the spring of 1988, which requires design completion by October 1987. The planning level estimated total project cost for Phase 2 of this District project is $4,836,000 based on 1986 costs. (Attachment 1 provides a project description and a sllllmary of project costs. ) Cost reimbursement contracts with cost ceilings of $164,000 and $10,000 have been negotiated with the engineering firm of John Carollo Engineers (JCE) of Walnut Creek and the soils firm of Woodward-Clyde Consultants of Walnut Creek, respectively. JCE was selected because of their experience in the design of large diameter sewers involving multibarrel siphons and familiarity with the project resulting fran their earlier work on Phase 1. JCE will evaluate alternative inverted siphon configurations and recommend and design the selected siphon configuration. JCE will also evaluate alternative configurations for the flow control/junction structure at the northern terminus of the project and recommend and design the selected flow control/junction structure configuration. JCE's work will include detailed hydraulic calculations and cost estimating.

A portion of the project will be parallel to the new San Ramon Creek Bypass Channel which will be constructed mostly within the Southern Pacific Railroad right-of-way in the City of Walnut Creek, California, (see Exhibit A to this Attachment 1). The pipeline will begin north of the existing Walnut Creek Channel at the southern edge of Arroyo Way and will end at Rudgear Road. This project is proposed for construction nOlI based on a unique, one-time opportunity for the District to incorporate the project with the construction of the already approved San Ramon Creek Bypass Flood Control Channel Project. Approximately 5,800 linear feet of the District's 66-inch trunk sewer is currently being installed under Phase 1, and approximately 4,600 linear feet of 66 and 72-inch trunk sewer and a flOll control/junction structure will be installed under Phase 2 in conjunction with the Flood Control Channel Project. Phasing is required to coincide with the Flood Control Channel project phasing. At the April 3, 1986 Board meeting a presentation was made on the total preliminary project costs associated with the San Ramon Valley and Walnut Creek Downtown Bypass projects. Table 1 sllJlmarizes the cost figures presented. Constructi on phasi ng, which will all 011 the Di stri ct to buil d the "Bypass" in conj uncti on with the flood control channel has necessitated the addition of a flOll control/junction structure and 2,000 feet of pipeline to the project. Both these items were originally scheduled to be constructed as a part of the San Ramon Valley Trunk Proj ect. Incorporati on of these facil iti es into the "Bypass" proj ect has increased its total prel iminary project costs by $2,000,000 with an associated $2,000,000 decrease in the San Ramon Valley Project costs. As Table 1 indicates, the total prel iminary project costs for both projects combined has not changed.

Jo e L. Kurasaki, Associate Engineer Engineering Dept./Planning Division ISSUE: Board of Directors' authorization is required for the General Manager-Chief Engineer to execute a professional services agreement covering flow monitori ng services as part of the Contra Costa Boul evard and "A" Line Faciliti es Pl an. BACKGROUND: The Contra Costa Boul evard and "A" Line trunk sewers transport 94 percent of the District's wastewater to the treatment plant. Last winter, several overflows occurred along the upstream sections of the Contra Costa Boulevard trunk line. The experience gained during last year's winter storms has been confirmed by the computerized hydraul ic analysis in the Collection System Master Plan. The Master Plan has identified critical hydraulic deficiencies along major sections of the Contra Costa Bou1 evard and "A" Line trunk sewer. The Facilities Plan is the first phase in this project to alleviate the capacity limitation in sections of the Contra Costa Boul evard and "A" Line trunk lines. In October, 1986, the Board of Directors authorized $1,057,000 in Sewer Construction Funds for Di strict staff to prepare the Contra Costa Bou1 evard and "A" Line Facilities Plan. The Facilities Plan tasks include wet weather flow monitoring to obtain data to be used as a basis to compute the design flows, a TV inspection of selected sections of the existing trunk lines to establish their current conditi on, a routi ng study to identify the vi abl e a1 ternative routes, a preliminary soils investigation in selected areas of concern, an aerial survey to produce a map for planning and design activities, the preparation of an Environmental Impact Report, and a citizen participation program. District staff is now requesting specific authorization for the wet weather flow monitoring to occur during February, which has generally been one of the wettest months of the year. Di strict staff recommends that CH2M Hill conduct the wet weather flow monitoring program because of their experience in this type of work, their ability to provide the needed flow monitors, and their competitive proposal to perform the work. CH2M Hill will provide engineering field assistance during selection of the flow monitoring sites, install up to 24 flow monitoring units, monitor and maintain them, process and analyze all the data, and summarize the information in a report which will then be used to develop the design flows for the Facilities Pl an. The CH2M Hill agreement will be on a Unit Cost Per Flow Monitoring Site Basis with a Cost Ceiling of $50,000.

Jarred Miyamoto-Mills, Assoc. Engineer Engineering Department/Planning Div. ISSUE: Board of Directors' authorization is required for the General Manager-Chief Engineer to execute a consulting engineering agreement and to expend sewer construction funds. BACKGROUND: The collection system in the city of Martinez is old and in need of renovation and expansion. Sewage overflows occur in Martinez when combined sewage flow and rainfall-based infiltration/inflow <III) exceed the capacity of the system. A major sewer rehabilitation and replacement project is required to reduce future sewage overflows. Without rehabilitation and repair, overflows will become more frequent as flows increase due to growth and further decay of the existing sewer system. The Engineering Department proposes that a facilities plan be prepared to defi ne what must be done to renovate and expand the Marti nez collection system. The facilities plan tasks are summarized in Attachment 1. The project team for the Martinez Sewer Improvement Project Facilities Plan will consist of District staff and James M. Montgomery Engineers of Walnut Creek in association with Camp Dresser & McKee Engineers (JMM/CDM). JMWCDM was selected in a written and oral proposal process which considered six firms. This selection was based on their special expertise, experience, and competence in collection system facilities planning work, as demonstrated by the project team in the project approach proposed and excellent references. This project will serve as a model for other areas of the collection system where the District will consider the cost effectiveness of removing III versus building larger facilities to convey and treat the III. The III analysis will add a level of complexity and sophistication to the facilities planning effort since it requires that the integrity of the entire collection system, including laterals, be eval uated, and the associ ated cost to rehabil itate or repl ace any defi ci ent facl1iti es be establ i shed. Sewer renovati on costs w 11 1 then be compared to the cost of providing downstream capacity, assuming no III removal. Downstream costs include those related to sewer, pump station, and treatment plant construction, operation, and maintenance. In similar situations, this approach has demonstrated that the cost of some rehabilitation is less than the cost of providing additional capacity. Capital improvement programs for renovation and upgradi ng of sewer systems with service areas and number of connections simil ar to Martinez have taken up to ten tl~ 1302A.9/85 J MM 5M~ JMK REVIEWED AND RECOMMENDED FOR BOARD ACTION INITIATING DEPT./DIV.

About hal f of these costs are estimated to be for publ ic sewers and the remainder for private sewer lateral repair. The Capital Improvement Plan currently includes an allowance of $9,000,000 for Martinez sewer system improvements during the next ten years. The estimated cost of the facilities plan, excluding the EIR and public participation program, is $815,000. A breakdown of these costs, which includes engineering services and related force account effort, is summarized in Attachment 2. A contract with JMM has been negotiated and is recommended to be a "Cost Reimbursement Pl us a Fixed Fee with a Cost Ceil ing" type agreement. The Facilities Plan will require an Environmental Impact Report (EIR) and Citizens Participation Program.

'-------- 13028-9/85 Page )f 4 ATTACH~NT 1 MARTINEZ SEWER IMPROVEMENT PROJ ECT FACILITIES PLAN SUMMARY OF TASKS The Engineering Department is proceeding to address the renovation of the Martinez collection system. The first step has been to develop as-built drawings of the sewer system and coordinate the preparation of easement maps and descriptions with City of Martinez staff. While Martinez is completing this work, District staff proposes to prepare a Facilities Plan for the Martinez Sewer Improvement Project. The facilities planning effort will: o evaluate the condition, capacity, and reliability of the existing collection system, including pump stations and force mains; o identify and quantify the sources of 1/1 into the system; o determi ne the cost effectiveness of rehabilitati ng the coll ecti on system (including private laterals) versus building, operating, and maintaining larger relief sewers, pump stations, equalization storage, and treatment facilities to handl e the III rel ated wet weather fl ows; o prepare a detailed project schedule, cost estimates, and financial plan defining and prioritizing projects and activities required for upgrading sewers in Martinez; o prepare an Environmental Impact Report and conduct a Citizens Participation Program for the Marti nez Sewer Improvement proj ect. District staff will collect sewer pipeline/land-use data, participate in field work, prepare speci al maps and as-bu il t draw i ngs, provi de survey ing, perform the project management role, provide quality control, direct design criteria and capital improvement plan development, and print the final report. The District's Collection System Operations Department will have significant responsibilities in the project's field work tasks. Their effort will include: T.V. inspection of sewer lines and laterals, smoke testing, and dye tracing; manhole inspection; and 1/1 isolation during storm events. JMM/CDM will be responsible for flow and rainfall data analysis, direction of fiel d work, data reduction and entry, sewer capacity and cost effectiveness analysis using computer modeling techniques, pump station evaluation, design criteria, capital improvement program recommendations, and preparation of interim, draft, and fi nal reports.

Zayac Planning Grants Technician INITIATING DEPT./DIV. Engineering Department/ Planning Division ISSUE: To comply with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), a negative declaration has been prepared for the proposed Treatment Plant Wet Weather Hydraul ic Improvements Project, hereinafter called "the project." The Board is bei ng asked to consi der adopting the Negative Decl arati on. If the Negative Declaration is adopted, approval of the project is required. BACKGROUND: In February 1986, severe rainstorms generated more wastewater flow than the treatment pl ant system coul d adequately accommodate. Duri ng peak flow times, untreated wastewater, which exceeded the capacity of the primary sedimentation tanks, was discharged to holding basins along with primary treated wastewater. District staff has identified improvements to the present hydraul ic system of the treatmentpl ant to better accommodate peak wet weather flows. All of the proposed improvements are located within the boundaries of the treatment plant property. The improvements which would be constructed this year consist of the addition of four sets of wet weather overflow launders to the primary sedimentation tanks, modifications to the primary effluent channel of the primary sedimentation tank, installation of approximately 1,000 linear feet of 60-inch pipe, construction of two control channels, and upgrading drainback pumps at Basins Band C at an estimated cost of $2,400,000. Additional work which consists of installing pumps on the influent line, installing a flow measuring device at the Inlet Building, upgrading the flow metering devices at Basins Band C, and upgrading the closing mechanism for the inlet gates may be constructed in 1988 or 1989. This project will reduce the potential for overflows in the Pleasant Hill area. In additi on, it w 11 1 reduce the amount of untreated wastewater diverted to the ponds, thereby reducing the potential for odor. The District CEQA guidel ines require the Board to consider the Initial Study prepared for the project and any public comments received on the Negative Declaration prior to approving the Negative Declaration for the project. The Initial Study for the project was prepared by Earth Metrics, Inc., an environmental and planning consulting firm. District staff concluded that the Initi al Study for the proj ect adequately, accurately, and obj ectively eval uated the proposed project's effect on the environment.

CORPORATION' S ~DERN IZATION PROJ ECT DATE January 16, 1987 TYPE OF ACTION ADOPT POS ITION SUBMITTED BY INITIATING DEPT.lDIV. James M. Kelly, Planning Div. Manager Engineering Dept./Planning Division I~SUE: Staff recommends that the Board of Directors adopt a position on possible discharge of treated hazardous waste from I.T. to CCCSD. BACKGROUND: On December 15, 1986, the County issued a Notice of Preparation (NOP) of an Environmental Impact Report (EIR) for the proposed I. T. Corporation's Vine Hill Treatment Pl ant Modernizati on Proj ect (short titl e: I. T. Modernizati on Proj ect). Currently, I. T. treats 1 iquid hazardous waste by cl assification, separation, chemical treatment where appropriate, and then evaporation of the liquid at the Baker site ponds (see map, Attachment I). The 1. T. Modernizati on Proj ect is proposed because the I. T. Corporati on and other hazardous/toxic waste disposal facilities must cease using evaporation ponds for treatment and disposal by July 1, 1988, according to County pol icy, and by January 1, 1989, to comply with Cal ifornia statutes. The proposed I. T. Modernization Project would replace existing treatment processes and provide additional treatment of incoming liquid hazardous wastes to insure that the facility's effluent could be acceptably discharged to a sewage treatment plant. The NOP lists CCCSD and Mountain View Sanitary District as the sewage treatment plants which the EIR would consider as possible discharge sites. Di stri ct staff has prepared a comprehensive response to the NOP. In the course of developing the response, staff concluded that it would be beneficial if the District had a formal, Board-adopted position on the I. T. Modernization Project. Accordingly, staff has prepared and recommends the Board of Directors adopt the following position: "The District is concerned about the environmental and community impacts that would result from the acceptance of treated hazardous waste from I.T. Corporati on. The Di strict must determi ne whether the acceptance of treated hazardous waste is compatible with the purpose, function, and capacity of the District's waste treatment facilities and consistent with the long-term plans and programs of the District. However, the District will fully consider the results of the technical, environmental, public acceptance, and regulatory impacts disclosed by the EIR and also the mitigation measures approved during the EIR process to guide its decision on whether or not to accept treated hazardous waste from the I. T Corporati on. " RECOMMENDATION: Adopt District position on the proposed I. T. Modernization Project.

The Contra Costa County Treasurer's Office is required to adhere to the District's investment policy in investing District's funds. While the Treasurer's Office heretofore assessed no fee for its services, a fee was initiated for the 1986-1987 fiscal year. The fee is charged quarterly and is based on a flat charge of $20 for each investment purchase or sale, plus an assessment of 1/3 of one percent of the interest earned. The full-year effect of the new fee, which will be netted against the District's interest income from temporary investments, is estimated to be $20,000 for the 1986-1987 fiscal year. The District's present investment policy is submitted for review and comment by the Board of Directors.
