ISSUE: A publ ic hearing must be conducted and a resol ution of necessity must be
adopted (Attachment 1) prior to initiating acquisition of property by eminent
domain. Also, Board authorization is required to expend funds from the Sewer
Construction Fund.
BAa<GROUt<<>: The District has identified the need to provide a buffer zone around
the perimeter of the wastewater treatment pl ant. The treatment pl ant is an
industrial type facil ity subj ect to changi ng regul atory requi rements. In order to
minimize environmental conflicts and to protect neighboring land uses, the District
has purchased property surrounding the treatment plant to provide an adequate buffer
zone.
On August 20, 1987 the Board authorized $49,500 from the Sewer Construction Fund for
the acquisition costs for Parcel 42, Assessor's Map Book 159, page 14, also known as
the Lagiss property. The Lagiss property a 48.96 acre parcel at the north end of
Blum Road in Martinez, is proposed to be acquired for the purpose of providing a
buffer zone between the treatment plant's wet weather holding basins and development
to the west (Attachment 2). The basi ns are util ized during wet weather events.
Odors are associated with sewage storage in the basins and are also produced when
the basi ns are drai ned. The net effect of the wet weather capacity improvement
project to be constructed this summer (1988) will be to 1 imit odors overall,
although the proximity of the Lagiss property to Basins Band C may lead to higher
perceptions of odors at this site. The immediate public need for the acquisition of
the Lagiss property is to prevent future development of the parcel that would limit
the District's abil ity to fully util ize the wet weather capacity of the treatment
plant which includes the wet weather holding basins. Since there are no alternative
locations available for wet weather basins at this time, and elimination of the
need for wet weather basins by treatment plant improvements would be prohibitively
expensive, the buffer zone is required to limit the impact of potential nuisance on
adjacent property owners and tenants.
On October 1, 1987 the Board adopted Resolution No. 87-177, a resolution adopting a
Negative Declaration for the Acquisition of the Lagiss Property fora Treatment
Plant Buffer Zone Project, and a "Notice of Determination" (Attachment 3) was filed
on October 2, 1987, thereby complying with the District's CEQA guidelines.

SUBJECT: STATEMENT OF THE BASIS FOR DETERMINATION OF JUST
COMPENSATION; PARCEL NO. 159-140-042
Dear Gentlemen:
This letter is a statement of the basis for determination of just
compensation. At the time the District makes you an offer to pur-
chase your property, we are required to give you this statement.
Legal description of property sought to be acquired by the Central
Contra Costa Sanitary District.

the attached Exhibit "A".

District.
Adjoins 4450 Blum Road, Martinez, CA

It is assumed that all of the above items are the property of the'

erty has no interest in said property. If this is not the case,
you are required to le t the District' know immed ia tely.

Amount,of offer by the
be acquired:
District
f2r the property sought to
The District offer for the property sought to be acquired is:
~1,200,000.00.
The amount of the District offer is the full amount believed by the
District to be just compensation for the property. The above amount
is not less than the approved appraisal of the fair market value of
the property as determined on the basis of the appraisal. The above
amount disregards any decrease or increase in the fair market value
caused by the project for which the property is to be' acquired or by
the likelihood that the property is to be acquired for such project,
other than that due to physical deterioration within the reasonable
control of the owner.
The above offer does not reflect any consideration of or allowance
for any relocation assistance and payment which the owner is entitled
to receive or of the District's agreement to pay certain settlement
costs.
The recognized definition of the term "fair market value" is as fol-
lows: "The fair market value of the property is the highest price on
the" date of valuation that would be agreed to by seller, being willing
to sell, but under no particular or urgent necessity for so doing, nor
obliged to sell, and a buyer, being ready, willing and able to buy but
under no particular necessity for so doing, each dealing with the other
with full knowledge of all the uses and purposes for which the property
is reasonably adaptable and available.'"
Explanation of appraisal techniques.
The appraiser has relied primarily on the market data approach for
the land area being acquired and the replacement cost approach fo~
improvements being acquired. The market data approach is based on
a comparison of your property with similar types of property which
have recently sold in the open market. The replacement cost approach
is based on the cos t of replacing any improvemen ts the District is buy-
ing at present cost less an allowance for physical depreciation.
Apportionment of compensation.
Fair market value of property sought to be acquired: $ 1,200,000.00

I again protest and object to any actions that may lead to
condemnation of the subject property.
I have repeatedly requested your sending me any Feasibility
Etudy clearly derining the specifics or your proposal, and
all details as to time, place, individuals, and whatever
additional racts may have led to your contemplated action,
but none have been forwarded to me. I specifically would
like to know who, when, and under what circumstances this
proposed acquisition was rirst contemplated and started.
This proposal is discriminatory and arbitrary in the extreme,
as it is directed to a land grab of only one undeveloped
parcel of land, whereas several dozen occupied residences
immediately abut your Westerly property line and protection
or condemnation of those residences should logically be
undertaken first rather than land farther away. Also, the
County's land abutting your Westerly property line should
warrant the same consideration. The term "buffer" to con-
riscate property for future development is fraudulent.
No Feasibility study, or Project, or 1=>ublic Use has been
established ror your proposed subterfuge for future real
estate development. The subject land was available for
purchase by your District a few years ago by the same seller
rrom which the District purchased its land, but it was
determined not to purchase it then because it was not needed
ror ruture District needs.
Absolutely no evidence has been made available to me
establishing a definitive "project" or "Public Use" for the
subject land, and I again request that this ill-advised
real estate venture be abandoned immediately.

Dear Mr. lagiss:
The Board of Directors of the Central Contra Costa Sanitary District
approved the Negative Declaration for the proposed acquisition of the
lagiss property for the Treatment Plant buffer zone on October 1. 1987.
In response to your letter dated September 30. 1987. regarding thfs
Negatfve Declaratfon. the quote "If, fn the future. the Distrfct chooses
to develop the property and change its existing land use. a separate
envfronmental study will be required" is taken out of context. The
following sentence "No other District use is planned or proposed at this
tfme" clearly states the District's intentions and represents no
subterfuge at all. In fact. this paragraph was intended to all ay any
fears that the District was pursuing acquisition of this parcel with
ulterior motives. Any ..~uture development of this land that can be
envisioned at this time would be for District facilities.
The next quote used in your letter, "In order to minimize environmental
confl fcts and to assure the contfnued vfability of neighboring 1 and
uses." is also taken out of context. The sentence contfnues "... the
District has proceeded to purchase property surrounding the treatment
p1 ant to provide an adequate buffer zone." Thi s statement refers not
only to this particular situation. but to a pattern of activity
undertaken by the District in the past. The environmental conf1 fcts
mentioned fn the same paragraph and fn later paragraphs are the
industri al nature of the treatment p1 ant and the use of new technologies
which may be required in the future.
Future odor impacts. which may particularly affect the parcel in
question. are pointedly referred to as "potential nuisance" in the
Negative Declaration. The District's endeavor to mitigate future impacts
by surrounding the treatment plant with a buffer zone is part of a
program to ensure good relations with neighboring property owners.
Rather than oppose development of neighboring parcels. the District Board
of Di rectors has pursued the option of obtaining fee tit1 e to sensitive
parcels.

Your closing paragraph mentions "several other discrepancies" in the
Negative Declaration which you believe should be addressed in an
environmental impact report. Since you failed to enumerate these items
in writing or before the Board of Directors. the District is unable to
address your concerns at this time.
If you have any further questions or comments. please telephone Paul
Morsen. Deputy General Manager. at 689-3890.

Re: Assessor's parcel !,~o. 159-140-042 (49 Acres).
I again request that you do not adopt a "Negative
Decleration" pertaining to the acquisition of the
subject property. Instead, I request that you
prepare an "EnviroIll1'lental Impact Report" fully
describing all aspects, present and future, of
this project.
your proposed negative declaration states, "The
immediate public need1br acquisition of the Lagiss
property is to prevent future development of the
parcel". Then, you state, "If, in the future,
the District chooses to develop the property and
change its existing land use, a separate environ-
mental study will be required". It is obvious
from your own statements that an environmental
iMpact report will ultimately be required for what-
ever plans and objectives you are entertaining at
this time to justify a negative declaration. There
is glaring subterfuge in your negativ4 declaration
to acquire the land for future development. Also,
you state, "In order to minimizeenviroIL."iental
conflicts and to assure the continued viability of
neighboring land uses", but you do not explain
what those "environmental conflicts" may be, nor
what the proposed acquisition of 49 acres of bare
land standing as the Lord created it will do "to
assure the continued viability of neighboring land
uses", which is not your prerogative.
you also state, "the buffer zone is required to limit
the impact of potential nuisance". I would like to
know exactly what "potential nuisance" you are
contemplating at this time.
There are several other discrepancies in your proposed
negative declaration, which in summary I feel should
be addressed in a formal enviro~~ental impact report,
and I so request that one be prepared forthwith.

Dear Mr. Lagiss:
Thank you for your letter of September 11,1987. We wish we could
accommodate your request for a verbatim transcript of the discussion
at the August 20, 1987 Board Meeting but none exists. It is a long
accepted policy of the Board to have its official record kept by
minutes.
At your request, consideration of adoption of a Negative Declaration
and authorization for the General Manager-Chief Engineer to proceed
with the acquisition of Assessor's Parcel #159-140-042 was continued
to October 1, 1987. Additionally, there will be a brief description
by staff of buffer zone and CEQA compl iance. At that time you will
have an opportunity to speak to the Board relative to the issue of
the buffer zone and other areas of concern. With regard to your
request for definition of buffer zone, land use planners commonly
refer to a buffer zone as being land which separates incompatible
land uses and is developed in a compatible way or is left undeveloped,
as appropriate.
I hope that this letter adequately addresses your concerns.

Re: Assessor's parcel #159-140-042 (49 acres).
At 1his morning's meeting with Messrs. Dolan and
Morsen, I was handed along with other information
"EXcerpt from the minutes of regular board meeting
of August 20, 1987". The unanimous approval of
the Board for acquisition of the subject property
was made "Following explanation by Mr. Dolan".
Since I was not informed of that meeting, I would
like to have a copy of Mr. Dolan's verbatum
explanation to the board. I also request again
that you furnish me with complete explanation
as to time, place, and individuals leading up to
the "position paper" of A'q.gust 13, 1987 submitted
by Paul Morsen to the Board, and since I am the
only individual involved why I was not informed
in any way about the many meetings held leading
to the proposed acquisition at this time. I
specifically would like to know what individual(s)
first discussed this matter and when and under what
circumstances.
In the various documents I have, the words "buffer
zone" are mentioned. I requested at this morning's
meeting a definition, according to the District's
words, but I did not receive any. I again request
that the word "buffer" be defined precisely so that
I can try to understand what it means (semantics),
and also define the area of the "zone" that is
encompassed - so that I may try to fully understand
what is being sought, and specifically how it
affects the subject land.

Re: Assessor's ~arcel #159-140-042 (49 Acres)
I hereby request that you prepare an environmental
impact report, as req~ired by law, pertaining to
the actions you have undertaken affecting the
subject property. Also, I again request that you
furnish me with the information that I requested
of you in my letter dated August 31, 1987.
I firmly believe your actions in this matter
are ill-advised, and neither your best interests
nor the public's general welfare would be best
served by your arbitrary actions. This large
heavy induBtrial zoned site is one of the finest
left in all of Contra Costa County, and removing
it from the tax rolls would deal a severe blow
to the County's tax base and revenue loss, and
to future needed employment opportunities. I
would hope that upon further critical analysis
and study, you will abandon this proposed land
grab - and I so suggest and request.
Since your District was created about forty years
ago, I have always cooperated with it, and if
there is any particular problem existing at this
time I would be glad to sit down with all concerned
to try to solve itQ.

ISSUE: LAFCO has amended the boundaries of several of the parcels included within
District Annexation 97, a proposed uninhabited annexation. The District must
hold the subject hearing and consider testimony by affected property owners before
acting on the proposed amended annexations.
BACKGROUND: The above-referenced annexation was sent to LAFOO as required for the
formal annexation process. Part of the annexation, consisting of four parcels,
was not changed. Three of these four parcel s were ordered to be annexed by the
District Board on December 17, 1987. The fourth parcel is being submitted for
Board action on the consent calendar as District Annexation 97-A. Since DA-97-A
is 100 percent landowner consent and was not amended by LAFOO, a public hearing is
not requi red.
LAFOO amended the boundaries of the remaining parcels during its approval process.
These amendments were made to improve the conti nui ty of the resul ti ng Di stri ct
boundary. The amended annexati ons are desi gnated as D. A. 97-C through 97-H and
are considered to be six separate annexations. Maps are attached showing the
amended annexations. A Negative Declaration has been prepared by LAFOO for all of
these amended annexations. ,District staff has reviewed said Negative Declaration
and concurs with its findings.
Legal notice was published, and the affected property owners were notified of this
hearing as required by law. The amended annexations are uninhabited (fewer than

ISSUE: A resolution by the District's Board of Directors must be adopted to
finalize District Annexation 97-A.
BACKGROUND: The District previously made application to the Local Agency
Formation Commission (LAFCO) for the annexation of ten parcels of land designated
as District Annexation 97. LAFCO has considered this request and has recommended
that Parcel 2, as shown on the attachment, be processed as submitted. LAFCO has
designated this parcel to be District Annexation No. 97-A. No public hearing is
required and the annexation of this parcel can be completed.
LAFCO has adopted a Negative Declaration for District Annexation No. 97-A.
District staff has reviewed this Negative Declaration and concurs with its
findings.
The city of Martinez recently filed an application with LAFCO to annex this parcel
to the City. LAFCO denied the request for annexation. The city of Martinez staff
has been contacted to determine their position on the District proceeding with its
annexation. The City staff has no objection to the District proceeding with the
annexation of Hidden Pond/Saddlehorn.
RECOMMENDATION: Adopt a resolution adopting the Negative Declaration and ordering
the completion of District Annexation No. 97-A.

ISSUE: All work has been completed on District's Dimension 400 Telephone System
Project CDP 3693) and the project can now be closed out.
BAC<GROUND: The Dimensi on 400 Telephone System was install ed at the Di strict in
January 1983 to coincide with staff moving into the new Headquarters Office
Buil di ng. At that time, the system was bei ng 1 eased pendi ng the total outcome of
the break-up of AT&T. The initial installation cost was authorized by the Board
for $49,500. In October 1983, staff and AT&T had completed negotiations for the
purchase of the Dimension 400 at a cost of $82,368. The Board's approval for the
purchase was obtai ned in November 1983 and additi onal fundi ng was authorized,
bringi ng the capital project bal ance to $97,584. In May 1984, AT&T finally
invoiced the District for the complete system and was paid. However, during this
time, the District was growing in both personnel and in the mechanical equipment
areas, such as operational alarm systems, that use telephone lines. Since many
projects that required physical relocation of personnel were being planned, such as
Planning Division to the first floor, new Mechanical Maintenance/Materials Control
Buil di ng, and CSO Buil di ng renovati on, the telephone system proj ect was kept open
to consolidate all of the telephone system costs.
On March 19, 1987, the Board authorized an additional $6,000 to add supplemental
equipment to the telephone system to both increase available capacity and to allow
for system expansion in the future. The additional funding brought the total
project budget to $103,584. All work has been completed and total project
expenditures were $103,583, thereby returning $1.00 to the Sewer Construction Fund.
RECOMMENDATION: This matter is presented as an informational item, and no Board
action is required.

ISSUE: The Board of Directors must pass a resolution to receive future ad valorem
tax revenues fran the properties included within the boundaries of the project
area of Contra Costa County's Pl easant H ill BART Stati on Redevelopment Proj ect
Plan Amendment.
BAO<GROUND: Central Contra Costa Sanitary (CCCSD) is authorized, pursuant to
Health and Safety Code Section 33676, to elect to receive its maximum allocation
of property tax revenues fran properties within redevelopment project plans.
Contra Costa County has proposed an amendment to the Pl easant Hill BART Stati on
Area Redevelopment Plan which adds properties to the original redevelopment area.
The Auditor-Controller of Contra Costa County has notified CCCSD that CCCSD can
elect to receive its share of future tax revenues fran the added properties. If
CCCSD el ects to receive its maximum all ocabl e share of future tax revenues, a
resolution must be adopted by the Board of Directors stating that CCCSD makes said
election. The resolution must then be sent to the County Board of Supervisors,
the Contra Costa County Redevelopment Agency and the Auditor-Controller to
guarantee the receipt of the revenues.
It is staff's position that it is in the best interest of CCCSD to elect to
receive its full all ocated share of tax revenues i ncl udi ng any all ocati on of
excess revenues under Health and Safety Code Section 33670(b). By so doing, the
District will receive its share of increased property tax revenues due to the
annual two percent increase in assessed valuations for properties not changing
ownership as provided by the Revenue and Taxation Code. The District will also
conti nue to receive property tax revenues based on the assessed val ue of all
taxable properties for fiscal year 1987-88 (base year). Increases in tax revenues
due to other increases in assessed valuations will accrue to the redevelopment
agency.
RECOMMENDATION: Adopt a resol uti on el ecti ng to receive an all ocati on of tax

Engineering Dept./Planning Division
ISSUE: Authorization of the Board of Di rectors is requi red for the General
Manager-Chief Engineer to execute an interagency agreement and a professional
service agreement greater than $50,000.
BACKGROUND: The District and CQoID initiated a Joint Water Reclamation Study in
November of 1986. As discussed in the Capital Improvement Budget on page TP 131,
it was anticipated that the Joint Study would require follow-up studies prior to
implementing a reclamation project. At the District's and CQoID's Board of
Directors joint Board meeting on September 24, 1987, staff presented findings of
the Joint Study. One major finding of the study was that use of reclaimed water
in industrial cooling towers was potentially cost effective and could be
implemented this summer as a demonstration project if the existing facilities
could be used (e.g. the District's filter plant) and if regulatory and
contractual issues coul d be rasol ved. Thi s position paper presents the progress
staff has made on the project since the joint Board meeting, the project
approach, and an estimate of the capital cost of the demonstration phase of the
Industrial Water Recl amation Project. Since impl ementation of the demonstration
phase of the Industrial Water Reclamation Project was not anticipated in the
Capital Improvement Budget for 1988, the ori gi nal cost estimate for the proj ect
has been revi sed.
After the joint Board study session, the District and CQoID have been actively
developing an Industrial Water Reclamation Project. Staff has met with
representatives of Shell Oil Company, Tosco Corporation, and Stauffer Chemical to
determine the feasibil ity of an Industrial Water Recl amation Project. Based on
these meetings, it appears that three to five million gallons per day of
reclaimed effluent could potentially be used by Shell and Tosco this summer on a
short term, demonstration basis. Following the six month to one year
demonstration period, CCCSD, C()ID, and the industries can review the results of
the Demonstration Project to determine the most viable long term water
reclamation project. Based on this review, an approach to implementing the long
term project would be developed. Significant progress has been made to identify
and resolve critical issues that must be resolved before the Demonstration
Industrial Water Recl amation Project can be impl emented. These critical issues
and project progress are summarized in Attachment A.

POSITION PAPER
PAGE 2 OF 6
DATE
February 1, 1988
In order to impl ement the Demonstrati on Proj ect, CO'lD and the Di stri ct must
receive a Regional Water Qual ity Control Board (RWQCB) Waste Discharge Permit,
determi ne the qual ity and total cost of the recl aimed water, rehabilitate the
filter plant, and negotiate water reclamation agreements. The District and CQolD
staffs recommend contracting with the consulting firm of James M. Montgomery
Engineers (JMM) to aid the Districts' staffs. JMM would evaluate and review data
from the pilot test program to address the industries' technical questions and
concerns and would determine the District's, CO'lD's and industries' operating
costs. They woul d prepare the RWQCB Waste Di scharge Permit application and
provide technical support to negotiate the contract issues relative to a
reclaimed water contract (both between CQolD and the District and between CQolD and
the industries). This scope of work was developed by a joint task force of
Di stri ct staff and CQolD staff. JMM has been sel ected based on thei r experi ence
with water reclamation for industrial reuse and previous work on the project.
The proposed agreement between the District and CO'lD calls for all consultant
costs to be evenly divided, and for the technical direction of the project to be
conducted by James M. Kelly of the District and Lee Aldridge, Director of
Engineering, of CQolD. A cost reimbursement type contract with a cost ceiling of
$110,800 has been negotiated with JMM. The District's share of this contract is
$55,400.
There are several technological, instituti onal, regul atory, and cost probl ems
that must be overcome to make industrial water reclamation a long-term reality.
Significant regul atory issues have evolved as a result of the most recent San
Francisco Bay RWQCB Basin Plan update and the development of regulatory standards
since the District's filtration facilities were originally constructed. CCCSD
and CQolD staffs, along with JMM, have made considerable progress with the
regulatory agencies and with the industries to overcome these problems, but more
work needs to be done. The data gathered during the Demonstration Project will
determine the long term viability of the Industrial Water Reclamation Project.
The current planning level budget for the Demonstration Project is $645,000 to
$1,195,000. The budget shown in the Capital Improvement Budget is $120,000. The
fiscal year 1987-88 Capital Improvement Budget System allows the actual project
budgets to vary from the original estimates incl uded in the Capital Improvement
Budget document so long as the aggregate expenditures for the proj ects do not
exceed the Program Budget total. Staff is monitori ng actual versus estimated
allocations within the treatment plant program budget and will present a
comprehensive mid-year status report for Board consideration at the next Board
meeting. At this time, additional funds are not needed. If additional funds are
needed, a request will be made at a later date along with a detailed description
of the basis of the request. Estimated capital costs for the demonstration phase
of the Project are summarized in Attachments Band C.
RECOMMENDATION: Authorize the General Manager-Chief Engineer to execute an
agreement with JMM for Phase II of the Industrial Water Reclamation Project and
to execute an agreement with CQolD to equally share the JMM costs for Phase II.

ATTACHMENT A
CRITICAL WATER RECLAMATION ISSUES
CCCSD Facility Rehabilitation - The proposed Demonstration Project would
utilize the District's Filter Plant. A facilities' assessment of the
filtration plant has determined the improvements needed to provide
filtered water to the industries during the Demonstration Project.
Attachment B presents a cost estimate of $235,000 of improvements that
will be required for the Filter Plant to make it acceptable to the
regulatory agencies for the Demonstration Project. (This does not
i ncl ude fil ter medi a repl acement. ) The proposed Fil ter Pl ant
improvements will have to be approved by the Department of Health
Services (DOHS). One issue that is currently in question is the adequacy
of the presently installed Filter Plant filter media. Tests by JMM have
shown that the medi a may not meet regul atory criteri a for particl e size
gradation. By operating the Filter Plant at a reduced loading rate
during the Demonstration Project, it may be possible to avoid replacing
the media until a decision is made to proceed with a long-term project.
The Pl ant Operati ons Department wl1 1 conduct a test to determine the
adequacy of the existing media for the Demonstration Project in April
1988. If the media has to be replaced, the cost of improving the
District's Filter Plant for the Demonstration Project could be as high as
$785,000 (instead of $235,000) and the Demonstration Project could not
start until fall, 1988 at the earliest to allow time to bid the media
replacement work.
To have the filters operational by summer of 1988, certain improvements
are now being initiated by District forces. Equipment and media
replacement will be brought to the Board for award of contract as
appropri ate.
Regulatory Approval - Staff has held meetings with the Regional Water
Qual ity Control Board (RWQrn) and the DOHS. The major outcome of the
meeting is that the RWQrn staff will ask their Board to adopt a
resolution waiving any violations of the industries' NPDES permit
resul ti ng from use of recl aimed water duri ng the initi al six months to a
year of operation of a Demonstration Project.
The District will submit a Waste Discharge Permit appl ication to the
RflQrn for the Demonstration Project in early February. This appl ication
will demonstrate compliance with Department of Health requirements
related to filtration, disinfection, and reliability. Staff has proposed
that the existing media in the filter plant not be replaced for the
demonstration project. The DOHS will have to approve this proposal.
Cooling Tower Water Quality - The industries' key water quality concerns
with use of reclaimed water for cooling tower makeup are:
o increased chemical and biological fouling,
o increased corrosion, primarily due to ammonia in the reclaimed
water, and
o reduced system reliability.
je 4 of 6
The industries' chemical supply companies are testing filtered, softened
effluent to determine the chemicals and cost for treating the reclaimed
water. The chemical companies will conduct a pilot test to final ize
their treatment chemical recommendations. The chemical cost to maintain
the industries' system reliability is one of the key factors that wlll
determine the cost to the industries for treating and using reclaimed
water. The treatment costs based on the first pilot test should be
available in mid-February.
Health Risks - The industries have also indicated a concern about health
effects ri sk of employee exposure to cool i ng tower mi st when recl aimed
water is used. The DOHS staff have stated that they wll 1 requi re the
reclaimed water to comply with the most stringent standard, which
virtually el iminates the risk of disease transmission from exposure to
recl aimed water. Staff has found that this same treatment is in use in
two simil ar appl ications in Southern Cal Horni a. Records from these
facilities show no increase in health risks associated with the use of
recl aimed water for cool ing tower make-up. Staff is investigating a
joint field trip with staff from CQ1D, Shell and TOSca to the Southern
Cal Hornia appl1cations to alleviate the industries' health risk
concerns.

ISSUE: Authorization by the Board of Directors is required for the General
Manager-Chief Engineer to execute contracts in excess of $50,000.
BACKGROUND: Capital Project TP-80, Treatment Plant Electrical System Improvements,
identified this improvement to the treatment plant's electrical system as one of
three specific actions available to increase the treatment plant's electrical system
reliability. The treatment plant is supplied electrical power from one of two
available parallel Pacific Gas and Electric (P. G. & E.> 115 kilovolt transmission
lines. P. G. & E., for maintenance and operations reasons, frequently takes one
feeder out of service; this feeder switching causes the treatment plant to
temporarily lose power. Although the District has emergency back-up power for some
critical equipment, the power interruption imposes increased equipment maintenance
requirements and additional operational problems.
Installation of a parallel power connection will allow uninterrupted electrical
service to the treatment plant during planned P. G. & E. transmission line
switching.
District staff has determined that this project is categorically exempt under the
District's CEQA guidelines.
RECOMMENDATION: Authorize the General Manager-Chief Engineer to execute an
agreement with P. G. & E. for $58,000 to design and install a parallel power
connection on the 115 kilovolt transmission line.

Variance Explanations:
(1) Sewer Service Charges for the first six month period exceeded budget
by $92,833 primarily as a resul t of higher revenues from di rect
billed accounts due to greater than anticipated water consumption by
commercial business accounts. As Sewer Service Charge revenues for
the second six month period are projected to be sl ightly less than
budget, the favorable variance for the fiscal year is estimated to
be $36,569.
(2) Sewer Service Charges-Concord was $102,744 less than budget for the
first six month period; the payment recorded in the first six months
merely represents an advance payment of one-half of the billing for
the last half of the prior fiscal year. The projected revenues for
the fiscal year exceed budget by $135,000, reflecting the shared
effect of the Treatment Plant's projected overexpenditure in
operating expenses.
(3) Lateral Inspection revenues for the first six month period were
$19,936 less than budget primarily due to a lower rate of general
construction and housing starts than was anticipated, and a new fee
structure which was adopted in November 1987. Projected revenues
for the fiscal year are $40,000 less than budget as a result of the
continued effect of the causes for the underrealization in the first
six months.
-2-
(4) Main Lines Inspection revenues for the first six month period were
$21,590 less than budget primarily due to a smaller number of main
1 ine projects than anticipated, and a new fee structure which was
adopted in November 1987. Proj ected revenues for the fiscal year
are $30,000 less than budget as a result of the continued effect of
the causes for the underrealization in the first six months.
(5) Septic Tank Dumping revenues for the first six month period were
$20,763 higher than budget primarily due to a 1 arger vol ume of
trucked-in waste than anticipated; since implementation of
restrictions on the geographical limits of the source of wastes in
September 1987, waste vol ume has decreased, and revenues for the
fiscal year are projected to be $19,000 higher than budget.
(6) Other Service Charges for the first six month period were $27,789
less than budget primarily because a bill ing to St. Mary's College
for the first six months was not processed pending the finalization
of negotiations regarding the billing formula; the revenue for the
fiscal year is projected to be equal to budget.
(7) New Industry Permit Fees for the first six month period were $22,000
less than budget primarily because a $12,351 payment was recorded in
another revenue account; after adjustment for this misposting, and
increased billings arising from the I.T. permit review process in
the second six months, revenues in this account are projected to
equal budget.
(8) Miscellaneous Income was $71,049 higher than budget for the first
six month periOd, and projected for the fiscal year, primarily
because of the gain on the sale of District real property in Orinda.

The favorable variances of $118,708 for the six month period, and

unfilled authorized job positions, principally within the Plant
Operations and Collection System Operations Departments.
(2) Util iti es:
The favorable variance of $26,667 for the six month period is
primarily the result of the following causes within the Plant
Operati ons Depa rtment and Pumpi ng Stati ons operati ons: a lower
electrical energy and demand charge and deferring the shutdown of
an auxil iary boiler to the second six month period, offset by
overexpenditures in natural gas due to higher usage caused by
modifications to furnace operations and initiation of the
nitrification process in the latter half of the six month period.
The unfavorable variance of $152,394 for the fiscal year is
primarily the result of higher electrical rates anticipated in the
second six month period, and higher natural gas usage requi red by
the operational changes described above.
(3) Chern i ca 1 s:
The unfavorable variances of $151,590 for the six month period, and
$318,250 projected for the fiscal year, are primarily caused by
higher than budgeted use of lime, chlorine and polymer necessitated
by modifications to the treatment plant's furnace operation and the
initiation of nitrification in the treatment process.

Six Months Review:
Operations and maintenance expenses for the six months ended December 31,
1987 totaled $1,507,109, and were $9,962 higher than budgeted expenses of
$1,497,147. The .6% overexpenditure is primarily the resul t of the
following expense account variances:
Professional Services expense of $24,401 is $8,301 higher than
budgeted expense of $16,100 for the six month period primarily
because of the District's share of the expense of the Price
Waterhouse review of the landfill disposal fee increase and services
related to establishment of a Solid Waste Joint Exercise of Powers
Agreement which were unanticipated. The District will recover the
expense of the Price Waterhouse reviews through the franchise fee
revenue account.
This account is projected to be $3,000 overexpended for the fiscal
year.
Legal Services-Board expense of $33,737 is $9,237 higher than
budgeted expense of $24,500 for the six month period primarily
because of unanticipated legal services by District Counsel related
to the 1987 refuse coll ecti on rate rev i ew process. The Di strict
will recover such legal expenses through the franchise fee revenue
account.
This account is projected to be $10,000 overexpended for the fiscal
year.
Technical Services expense of $63,579 is $14,456 less than budgeted
expense of $78,215 for the six month period primarily due to
deferring until the next fiscal year services such as supervisory
trai ni ng, workers' compensati on cl aims control analysi s, and
property appraisals.
This account is projected to be $17,918 underexpended for the fiscal
year.
Election expense of $28,701 was not budgeted, as the date of
el ecti on of Board Members was changed to be coi nci dent with the
general elections. However, contrary to information provided during
budget preparation, the expense for the notification to the
electorate of the change was charged to the District by the County.
This account is projected to be $28,701 overexpended for the fiscal
year.

Employee Benefit Expenses, comprised of Workers' Compensation
Insurance, State Unemployment Insurance, Federal Medicare Tax,
Medical and Health Insurance, Retirement Contribution, Deferred
Compensation Contribution, Dental Insurance, Long-Term Disabil ity
Insurance, Life Insurance and Vision Care Insurance, totaled
$1,615,398, and were $25,298 higher than budgeted employee benefits
expenses of $1,590,100 for the six month period. Expenditures in
these accounts are recorded in the Administrative Department, and
are allocated to each department through the Employee
Benefits-Contra account. Major account variances are explained
be 1 ow :
Workers' Compensation Insurance expense for the first six
months is equivalent to budget, as the actual expense is not
determined until the end of the fiscal year when actual payroll
expense and the return premium for the prior year are known.
The budgeted expense for the fiscal year incl uded a $100,000
return premium credit for the 1986-1987 policy year. Based on
favorabl e cl aims experience for that year, a $158,000 return
premium is projected, which will produce a $58,000
underexpenditure in the account.
Retirement Contributions were $46,429 higher than budget for
the six month period because of a lower than actual estimated
contribution rate used in developing the budgeted expense
before the final rate was establ ished by the County; for the
fiscal year, this account is projected to be $93,000 higher
than the budgeted expense.
Deferred co.pensation Contributions were $21,190 less than
budget for the six month period as a resul t of lower than
budgeted salaries and wages; for the fiscal year, this account
is projected to be $22,000 less than budget.
Long-Tenm Disability Insurance was $10,502 less than budget for
the six month period because of a change in insurance carriers
to obtain comparable coverage at a lower premium expense; for
the fiscal year, this account is projected to be $21,000 less
than budget.
The balance of the six month overexpenditure of $10,561
occurred in the remaining employee benefits expense accounts.
For the fiscal year, the variance between actual and budgeted
expenses for all employee benefits expense accounts are projected to
result in a net overexpenditure of $14,200.
for all other departmental expense accounts, the actual expense for
the six month period was within $5,000 of budgeted expense. The
cumulative net variance between actual and budgeted expenses for all
these accounts for the fiscal year is projected to be $5,039
underexpended.
-6-
Fiscal Year Projection:
The Administrative Depar1lnent's operation and maintenance expenses are
projected to be $9,744 overexpended for the fiscal year ending June 30,
1988, as a result of overexpenditures of $3,000 in Professional Services,
$10,000 in Legal Services-Board, and $28,701 in Election Expense, offset
by underexpenditures of $17,918 in Technical Services and $5,039 in all
other expense accounts.
Et<<2INEERIt<<2 DEPARTMENT
Six Month Review:
Operations and maintenance expenses for the six months ended December 31,
1987 totaled $1,300,956,and were $101,865 less than budgeted expenses of
$1,402,821. The 7.3% underexpenditure is primarily the result of the
following expense account variances:
Salaries and Wages and related employee benefits expenses of
$2,109,607 are $67,837 higher than budgeted expenses of $2,041,770
for the six month period primarily because of the earl ier than
scheduled transfer of two employees to fill positions in the
department, and higher than budgeted overtime charges.
These accounts are projected to be $54,591 overexpended for the
fiscal year.
Technical Services expense of $60,683 is $31,447 less than budgeted
expense of $92,160 for the six month peri od because a number of
studi es and activ iti es by outsi de fi rms have been deferred to the
second six months of the fiscal year. The studies and activities
include software development for capital budgeting, user fee
analysis, Concord flow monitoring and an industrial user survey.
This account is projected to be $3,800 underexpended for the fiscal
year.
other Outside Services expense of $54,563 is $5,437 less than
budgeted expense of $60,000 for the six month period because of a
lower than anticipated processing charge by the Contra Costa County
for billing and collecting the District's Sewer Service Charge on
the County's real property tax rolls.
This account is projected to be $5,437 underexpended for the fiscal
year.
Salaries and Wages-Contra and related capitalized expenses of
$1,025,139 are $104,932 higher than budgeted capitalized expenses of
$920,207 for the six month period because of greater than
anticipated District forces labor charges expended on capital
proj ects. These capital proj ects incl ude the Outfall proj ect,
Walnut Creek Bypass, Dewatering System Improvements, Furnace Control
Room, Mechanical Maintenance/Warehouse Building, San Ramon Trunk
Sewer and Hydraulics Improvements.
-7-
These capital ized wages and employee benefits are projected to
exceed budget by $131~270 for the fiscal year.
For all other departmental expense accounts~ the actual expense for
the six month period was within $4~OOO of budgeted expense. The
cumulative net variance between actual and budgeted expenses for all
these accounts for the fiscal year is projected to be $12~772
underexpended.
Fiscal Year Projection:
The Engineering Department's operations and maintenance expenses are
projected to be $98~618 underexpended for the fiscal year ending June 30~
1988~ as a result of underexpenditures of $3~800 in Technical Services~
and $5~437 in Other Outside Services~ and higher than budgeted Salaries
and Wages-Contra and related capitalized expenses of $131~200~ offset by
an overexpenditure of $54~591 in Salaries and Wages and related employee
benefits; a $12~ 772 underexpenditure is projected in all other expense
accounts.
OOlLECTION SYSTEM OPERATIONS DEPARTJENT
Six Months Review:
Operations and maintenance expenses for the six months ended December 31~
1987 totaled $l~541~707~ and were $38~295 higher than budgeted expenses
of $l~503~412. The 2.4% overexpenditure is primarily the result of the
following expense account variances:
Salaries and Wages and related e.ployee benefits expenses of
$1~149~083 are $45~120 less than budgeted expenses of $1~194~203 for
the six month period primarily because of unfilled positions during
the first six months of the fiscal year.
These accounts are projected to be $82~095 underexpended for the
fiscal year.
Gasoline, Oil, and Fuel expense of $32~782 is $5~782 higher than
budgeted expense of $27 ~OOO for the six month period primarily
because of increases in gasoline prices and the imposition of a new
federal exci se tax on gasol i ne purchases~ which were not
anticipated.
This account is projected to be $8~782 overexpended for the fiscal
year.
Operating Supplies expense of $167~761 is $24~269 higher than
budgeted expense of $143,492 for the six month period primarily due
to greater than anticipated use of sewer pipe and backfill caused by
increased repair activity.
This account is projected to be $24~270 overexpended for the fiscal
year.
-8-
Safety Supplies expense of $22,199 is $12,201 higher than budgeted
expense of $9,998 for the six month period because of an unplanned
expenditure of $9,000 to upgrade traffic control equipment to
current standards, and a greater than anticipated demand for
protective equipment for personnel.
This account is projected to be $12,178 overexpended for the fiscal
year.
Outside Repairs and Maintenance expense of $100,674 is $2,262 less
than budgeted expense of $102,936 for the six month period because
of the deferral of certain manhole raising repair projects to the
second six month period.
This account is projected to be $12,191 overexpended for the fiscal
year as a resul t of a greater than anti ci pated number of manhol e
raising projects required to be completed during the second six
months of the fiscal year.
Rents and Leases expense of $22,454 is $8,170 higher than budgeted
expense of $14,284 for the six month period primarily because of
greater than anticipated use of a rented small backhoe for use in
off-road repairs. The small backhoe substantially reduces the
manual labor required for such repairs, and achieves reductions in
work time and the incidence of strain-type injuries. The purchase
of a small backhoe in the 1988-1989 Equipment Budget is under
rev i ew .
This account is projected to be $16,078 overexpended for the fiscal
yea r .
Technical Services expense of $59,556 is $27,706 higher than
budgeted expense of $31,850 for the six month period because of the
use of temporary agency personnel primarily for unfilled staff
positions and special tasks. Therefore, the overexpenditure in this
account is offset by the previously described underexpenditure in
the Salaries and Wages and related employee benefits accounts.
This account is projected to be $30,381 overexpended for the fiscal
year.
Janitorial and Refuse R.oval expense of $24,681 is $9,681 higher
than budgeted expense of $15,000 for the six month period primarily
because the once a year hauling of excavated soil prOduced by
District repair activities from the Springbrook Road site to a
disposal site occurred in the first six month period.
This account is projected to be $1,718 underexpended for the fiscal
year.
Salaries and Wages - Contra and related capitalized expenses of
$106,184 are $6,671 1 ess than budgeted capitalized expenses of
$112,855 for the six month period because of a slightly lower number
of capital projects on which District forces labor was expended.
-9-
For the fiscal year, these District forces labor charges expended on
capital proj ects are proj ected to be $23,762 higher than budgeted
because of a greater than anticipated involvement in the District
Outfall Project.
For all other depart.ental expense accounts, the actual expense for
the six month period was within $6,000 of budgeted expense. The
cumulative net variance between actual and budgeted expenses for all
these accounts for the fiscal year is proj ected to be $3,458
unde rexpended.
Fi scal Year Proj ecti on:
The Collection System Operations Department's operations and maintenance
expenses are proj ected to be $7,153 underexpended for the fiscal year
ending June 30, 1988, as a result of underexpenditures of $82,095 in
Salaries and Wages and related employee benefits, $1,718 in Janitorial
and Refuse Removal, and higher than budgeted Salaries and Wages - Contra
and rel ated capi tal ized expenses of $23,762, offset by overexpendi tures
of $8,782 in Gasol ine, Oil and Fuel, $24,270 in Operating Suppl ies,
$12,178 in Safety Supplies, $12,191 in Outside Repairs and Maintenance,
$16,078 in Rents and leases, and $30,381 in Technical Services; a $3,458
underexpenditure is projected in all other expense accounts.
PLANT OPERATIONS DEPARnENT
Six Months Review:
Operations and maintenance expenses for the six months ended December 31,
1987 totaled $4,964,361, and were $69,198 less than budgeted expenses of
$5,033,559. The 1.4% underexpenditure is primarily the result of the
following expense account variances:
Salaries and Wages and related eaployee benefits expenses of
$2,536,745 are $146,475 1 ess than budgeted expenses of $2,683 ,220
for the six month period due to unfilled positions during part, or
all, of the first six months of the fiscal year in the Plant
Operations Maintenance Division.
These accounts are proj ected to be $185 ,572 underexpended for the
fiscal year.
Chlorine expense of $131,370 is $49,952 higher than budgeted expense
of $81,418 for the six month period because of increased usage of
chlorine to achieve satisfactory coliform kill. Increased usage was
due to higher flow volumes, a higher chlorine residual setpoint
required to meet permit standards and nitrification.
This account is projected to be $101,131 overexpended for the fiscal
year based on a continued higher residual setpoint requirement.
Lime expense of $119,670 is $104,970 higher than budgeted expense of
$14,700 for the six month period because of the unanticipated need
for continued use of lime in the primary sedimentation tanks during
-10-
this fiscal year. Lime addition was intended to be discontinued
after construction of the di ssol ved air fl otati on system; however,
furnace problems due to lower unl imed ash fusion temperatures and
the need for nitrification necessitated continued use of lime.
This account is projected to be $210,600 overexpended for the fiscal
year.
Polymer expense of $232,795 is $27,775 higher than budgeted expense
of $205,020 for the six month period because of a change in the type
and quantity of polymer required in the nitrification process.
This account is projected to be $19,960 overexpended for the fiscal
year.
Electrical expense of $632,856 is $71,577 less than budgeted
expense of $704,433 for the six month period primarily because of a
slightly lower than anticipated electrical energy and demand charge
during the six month period, and the impact of the postponement
until late January and February 1988 of the shutdown of an auxiliary
boiler, which would have required use of the electric blower.
This account is projected to be $48,374 overexpended for the fiscal
year, primarily because of higher electrical rates anticipated in
the second six month period.
Natural Gas expense of $533,293 is $42,176 greater than budgeted
expense of $491,117 for the six month period primarily because of
the use of greater quantities of higher priced gas from the utility
company during the first quarter of the fiscal year when the flow of
landfill gas was inadequate to meet plant demands, and higher usage
of natural gas requi red by modificati ons to furnace operati ons and
the initiation of the nitrification process in the second quarter.
This account is projected to be $116,400 overexpended for the fiscal
year as a result of the causes described above and continued
nitrification.
General Repairs and Maintenance expense of $342,228 is $109,218
higher than budgeted expense of $233,010 for the six month period
primarily because of several large repair projects undertaken by
District forces. These projects included replacement of the
centrate lines and vacuum lines in the Solids Conditioning Building,
chain and fl ight repl acement in a primary sedimentation tank, and
maintenance work on boilers which required major parts replacement.
This account is projected to be $107,180 overexpended for the fiscal
year; the overexpenditure will be partially offset by an
underexpenditure in Outside Repairs and Maintenance.
Outside Repairs and Maintenance expense of $119,870 is $125,866 less
than budgeted expense of $245,736 for the six month period primarily
due to increased repair work undertaken by District forces, and the
deferral of discretionary major maintenance work by outside firms.
-11-
The deferred maintenance work will occur during the second six
months when weather conditions permit outdoor activities.
This account is projected to be $746272 underexpended for the fiscal
year.
Ash Removal expense of $246975 is $236525 less than budgeted
expense of $486500 for the six month period due to reduced volume of
secondary sludge production from the nitrification process6 and the
deferral of the furnace cleanout from the first to the second six
months of the fiscal year.
This account is projected to be $326000 underexpended for the fiscal
year.
Sludge Removal expense of $16500 is $476750 less than budgeted
expense of $496250 for the six month period because no furnace
problems or process upsets requiring sludge hauling occurred during
the first six month period; the $16500 incurred is for the monthly
standby charge for an on-site container. With modifications to
the furnace operations which have been completed6 it is bel ieved
that sludge hauling will not be necessary this fiscal year.
This account is projected to be $866500 underexpended for the fiscal
year.
Other Outside Services expense of $146584 is $396516 less than
budgeted expense of $546100 for the six month period primarily
because of the deferral of services by outside firms from the first
to the second six months of the fiscal year.
This account is projected to be substantially equivalent to budget
for the fiscal year.
Salaries and Wages - Contra and related capital ized expenses of
$496489 are $856245 less than budgeted capitalized expenses of
$1346734 for the six month period primarily because of delays in the
construction schedules for capital projects.
These capital ized wages and employee benefits are. proj ected to be
$1556771 underrealized for the fiscal year.
Fiscal Year Projection:
The Plant Operations Department's operations and maintenance expenses are
projected to be $3766000 overexpended for the fiscal year ending June 306
19886 as a result of the following account variances:

Operations and maintenance expenses for the six months ended December 31,
1987 totaled $515,642, and were $61,247 less than budgeted expenses of
$576,889. The 10.6% underexpenditure is primarily the resul t of the
following expense account variances:
General Repairs and Maintenance expense of $14,858 is $12,988 less
than budgeted expense of $27,846 for the six month period because of
the deferral of major pump and air compressor repairs by District
forces to the second six months of the fiscal year.
Th is account is proj ected to be substanti ally equival ent to budget
for the fiscal year.
Outside Repairs and Maintenance expense of $27,716 is $32,264 less
than budgeted expense of $59,980 for the six month period primarily
because of a delay in issuing a contract for a diesel engine noise
barrier at Lower Orinda Pumping Station, and the deferral of
repainting the San Ramon Pumping Station and anticipated repairs to
the Flygt pumps at that station.
This account is projected to be substantially equivalent to budget
for the fiscal year.
The balance of the net underexpenditure occurred within accounts in
which the individual account variances between actual and budgeted
expenses were insignificant, and which are projected to be
substantially equivalent to budget for the fiscal year.
Fiscal Year Projection:
The Pumping Stations' operations and maintenance expenses are projected
to be $15,036 underexpended for the fiscal year ending June 30, 1988, as
a result of minor, general ized net underexpenditures in the majority of
expense accounts.

TYPE OF ACTION
DENY CLAIM
SUBMITTED BY
Jack E. Campbell

INITIATING DEPT./DIV.
Administrative De artment
ISSUE: A claim for $4,750.61 plus unspecified supplemental items has been received
from the California State Automobile Association (C.S.A.A.) concerning a vehicle
accident which occurred on November 9, 1987, at the intersection of Castle Hill
Ranch Road and Winfield Lane, an unincorporated area near Walnut Creek. Denial of
a claim requires Board action.
BACKGROUND: The location of this accident is a privately owned street intersection
used as a public throughfare for access to the Castle Hill residential area south
of Walnut Creek. The accident involved Ms. Jo Goodell of 261 Castle Hill Ranch
Road and District pick-up truck number 17 driven by CSO staff member Paul Kelly.
The District investigation disclosed that the two vehicles entered the blind
intersection of the two narrow streets (there were no stop signs); neither driver
saw the other in time, and the vehicles struck front ends. There were no injuries,
but the District vehicle sustained approximately $2,000 of damage and C.S.A.A. is
subrogating against the District for $4,750.61 of damage to Ms. Goodell's car. The
accident investigation does not indicate that the District is solely at fault;
therefore, the staff recommends that the claim be denied.
RECOMMENDATION: Deny cl aim from the Californi a State Automobil e Associ ati on and
refer to staff for further action as necessary.

RESOLUTION NO. 88-
A RESOLUTION REQUESTING THE CONTRA COSTA COUNTY BOARD OF SUPERVISORS TO
LIMIT SOLID WASTE DEVELOPMENT IGREEMENTS TO FUNDING CENTRAL COUNTY'S FAIR
SHARE OF COUNTY SOLID WASTE MANAGEMENT PROGRAMS
WHEREAS, it is our understandi ng fran newspaper reports and rev iew
of proposed development agreements for the East Contra Costa Sanitary
Landfill, the Kirker Pass Landfill, and the proposed Acme transfer
station that it is proposed that a tipping fee surcharge be established
to pay for the following solid waste management programs:
o Resource recovery office fees to promote recycling in the
ent ire county.
o Litter and illegal dumping pick-up in the unincorporated
area and participating cities using workfare recipients and/or
detention facility inmates and including the cost of vehicles,
equipment, and supervisory personnel.
o Litter control and illegal dumping, hazardous waste disposal,
regulation, enforcement, and prosecution in the unincorporated
area and participating cities.
o Public education regarding solid waste management, household
hazardous waste management, and litter control conducted
county-wide.
o Abandoned veh ic1 e abatement in the uni ncorporated area and
participating cities.
WHEREAS, the landfills will initially serve only residents of
Central and perhaps East County and the transfer station will on1 y serve
residents of Central County,
WHEREAS, it is unfair and discriminatory to require one portion of
the county to fund more than its fair share of county-wide programs,
t-Ol, THEREFORE, the Central Contra Costa Sanitary Di strict does
hereby resolve to request the Contra Costa County Board of Supervisors to
limit the use of funds gathered by a tipping fee surcharge from Central
County residences established by development agreements to only fund
Central County's fair share of county-wide solid waste programs.
