DOLAN General Manager-Chief Engineer DATE June 14, 1982 SUBJECT AUTHORIZE AN ADDITIONAL $59,000 FOR CHANGES TO THE FIRST, SECOND, AND THIRD FLOORS OF THE NEW OFFICE BUILDING, DISTRICT PROJECT 3000 TYPE OF ACTION ADDITIONAL FUNDS Const. & Services Div. Mana er INITIATING DEPT./DIV. Construction Div./Engineering Dept. SUBMITTED BY ISSUE: The total cost for the proposed changes to the new office building exceeds the previously authorized amount. BACKGROUND: The changes to the new office building were first proposed in November, 1981, to accommodate modifications to the District's organization that had occurred subsequent to the completion of the initial design of the building. A preliminary design for the changes was undertaken and the staff requested $143,000 in March for design and construction. The Board authorized $106,000. Concurrent with the final design effort, the contractor was directed to provide for the proposed changes so as not to delay progress and the design was limited to essential changes. After a month of negotiations, the price for the work is $165,000. The details of the price for the changes are shown on the attachment to this position paper. At this time there are no major items of cost that can be reduced. The proposed change is the minimum required to achieve the desired layout. Further- more, some of this work has already been incorporated into the building by the contractor. There would be a cost in both rework and delay in going back to the original design. Additional funds are needed to pay the total cost of the proposed changes. The total cost of $165,000 minus the previous Board's authorization of $106,000 leaves $59,000 to be authorized. RECOMMENDATION: Authorize an additional $59,000 for changes to the first, second, and third floors of the new office building.

Adm. 4 POSITION PAPER VIA: ROGER J. DOLAN General Manager-Chief Engineer DATE June 14 1982 SUBJECT TYPE OF ACTION MEMORANDUM OF UNDERSTANDING (M.O.U.) WITH CCCSD EMPLOYEES' ASSOCIATION, LOCAL NO.1, EFFECTIVE JULY 1, 1982 THROUGH ADOPT M.O.U. APRIL 30 1985 SUBMITTED BY ISSUE: Your representatives and the Representatives of the CCCSD Employees' Association, Local #1 have agreed to the attached M.O.U.; the Employees' Associa- tion has ratified the agreement and, therefore, presentation to the Board of \. Directors for final approval is nOW appropriate. DISCUSSION: Beginning in April, 1982, Board Representatives and Representatives of the Employees' Associ ati on, Local #1 have, on numerous occasions met and conferred in an effort to develop a Memorandum of Understanding to cover the General Employee Group when our present M.O.U. expires on June 30, 1982. The attached document is the fruit of those efforts. A review of the Document itself will answer any questions that arise regarding its content. Highlights of the 34-month agreement are as follows: o General Employees will receive a 6% general increase, effective July 1, 1982; a 7% general increase, effective May 1, 1983; and a 7% general increase, effective May 1, 1984. o A new streaml ined Grievance Procedure is included that shortens the processing time from beginning to resolution. o An "Agency Shop" provision which also provides for the grandfathering out, on a one-time basis, of those employees who do not wish to partici- pate. o Merit increases will be tied to employee performance for all general employees, District-wide, and evaluations will be done at the time of each employee's anniversary date. o An Optical Plan will be provided to all General Employees commencing July 1, 1982. o Employees will have the opportunity to compete among inhouse candidates for a promotional examination if at least four employees meet the minimum qualifications of an open position. This agreement is rather an historic one for the District as it represents the first multi-year Labor Agreement in District history. It is felt by all parties that a degree of stabilization will result that would be impossible with a one- REVIEWED AND RECOMMENDED FOR SOARD ACTION GEN. MGR'/CHIEF ENG. year agreement. It is planned that this M.O.U. will be produced in booklet form and issued to all General Employees, Supervisors, and Managers and as such, will become a ready reference. Since the agreement contains most of the District Personnel Policies and Procedures, the potential for misunderstandings and non- uniform administration will be eliminated or significantly reduced. Because of its length and the many topics addressed, the necessary series of talks were not without difficulties on both sides of the table. However, the pro fessional attitude of the CCCSD Employees' Association Representatives and their willingness to address problems and seek resolution allowed the atmosphere that produced the ultimate agreement. Your representatives wish to acknowledge this good faith spirit and compliment them on a fine job of representing their constituency. RECOMMENDATIONS: Adopt the attached Memorandum of Understanding for all General Employees, effective July 1, 1982 through April 30, 1985.

Batts INITIATING DEPT./DIV. Plant Operations Department SUBMITTED BY Issue: Several small projects have been identified which will reduce odor emissions at the wastewater treatment plant. Background: The following projects are proposed to improve the Sol ids Conditioning Building odor control systems: I. Construct ducting from the centrate drain I ine to odor control unit No.3. This will reduce centrate odor emission, which is the most significant single odor source at the plant. 2. Construct ducting from the centrifuge cake hoppers to odor control unit No.3. This will restore the cake hopper odor control system, which had to be dismantled because of the land fill gas project. 3. Install an oxidation-reduction monitoring and control system on odor control unit No.3. This will improve the efficiency of the odor control unit by controll ing chemical feed to the unit. The design and construction of these projects will be by Plant Operations Department staff. Recommendation: Authorize $20,000 in Sewer Construction Funds for odor control projects at the treatment plant.

DOLAN General Manager-Chief Engineer DATE June 9, 1982 SUBJECT TYPE OF ACT ION AUTHORIZATION OF $38,000 IN SEWER CONSTRUCTION FUNDS FOR THE MODIFICATION OF FIELD MICROPROCES~ORS AUTHORIZE FUNDS SUBMITTED BY INITIATING DEPT./DIV. R.A. BAKER PLANT OPERATIONS DEPARTMENT Issue: The treatment plant field microprocessors have electronic deficiencies which require correction. Background: During the Board of Directors tour of the treatment plant in February, 1982, a presentation was made on two projects to improve field microprocessor relia- bility. The first project was to design, construct, and install new power supplies in the field microprocessors. The old power supplies have been very unreliable and are no longer supported by the manufacturer, making certain kinds of failures impossible to repair. The second project was to design, construct, and install a special monitor circuit in the field microprocessors to warn the computer when a microprocessor "1ocks Up.11 When the field microprocessor I'locks Up," it keeps sending the same signals to the computer, no matter what is really happening. This mode of failure is particularly dangerous because it is difficult to detect and correct before a plant upset is created. The Instrument Shop has built and tested a prototype power supply and monitor circuit. The prototype units have worked well, and we are now ready to proceed with construction and installation of the units in the 19 remaining field microprocessors. Recommendation: Authorize $38,000 in Sewer eonstruction Funds for the treatment plant staff to construct and install replacement power supplies and new monitor circuits in the field microprocessors.

Funasaki INITIATING DEPT./DIV. Accounting Division ISSUE: The District Code and State law require adoption of a resolution establishing the Environmental Quality Charge (EQC) rates for 1982-1983 followed by a Public Hearing for their collection on the County tax rolls. BACKGROUND: On June 11,1982, the Board of Directors approved establishment of the 1982-1983 EQC rates by maintaining the same rates as were in effect for the 1981-1982 fiscal year. The collection of the EQC on the Contra Costa County tax rolls is considered the most cost effective method for the District to employ. The District will continue to collect the EQC from some commercial and industrial users and all tax-exempt properties by direct billing. A Public Hearing date to consider collection of the 1982-1983 EQC on the County tax roll should be established. RECOMMENDATION: The Board should direct that a Public Hearing be held on July 15, 1982 to consider the collection of the 1982-1983 EQC on the County tax rolls.

This District is planning for the developments which have been and will be approved by the cities and unincorporated areas it serves. Due to circumstances beyond the control of the District, the treatment plant expansion program has been delayed, and it will be necessary to request the California Regional Water Quality Control Board for an extension of time to be in full compliance with the Regional Board Order No. 79-77. This District must be prepared to limit connections should the Regional Board so order. Within present planning concepts as they are understood by this District, all houses which are completed within 12 months from the date of this letter will have a sewer connection available to them, subject to any action by State or regional regulatory authorities. When the sewers planned for this development are completed by the developer and accepted by the District, they will become part of the public sewer system and will be maintained by the District. The cost of installing and connecting to the sewer system will be included in the purchase price of each individual home. Once connected, each residence will be subject to a recurring, annual sewer service charge (Environmental Quality Charge) which has been established at $10.33 per month for fiscal year 1981-1982.

Based on present planning concepts as they are understood by this District and the scheduled treatment plant expansion program expected to be completed in 1985, it is anticipated that sewer connections will be available to the subject development. However, modifications due to unforeseen circumstances in the plant expansion program and actions imposed by State, Federal or Regional authorities could affect sewer availability at any time. Normally, the cost of installing and connecting to the sewer system is borne by the Developer and is subsequently included in the purchase price of each individual home. After properties are annexed to this District, the property will be subject to the District's bonded indebtedness and the Ad Valorem Tax of the District. Once a residence is connected to the sewer system, the property will be subject to a recurring, annual sewer service charge (Environmental Quality Charge) which has been established at $10.33 per month for fiscal year 1981-82.

Funasaki, Finance Officer INITIATING DEPT./DIV. Accounting Division ISSUE: At its May 20, 1982 Board Meeting, the Board of Directors requested that additional information related to establ ishment of garbage collection rates of Valley Disposal Service be obtained. The requested information is provided herein. BACKGROUND: The Board of Directors established the residential garbage collection rates for the Valley Disposal Service franchisees by granting a 5% increase effective April 1, 1982. At the following Board Meeting, a 5.7% increase in commercial and apartment rates was granted for Valley Disposal and Diablo Disposal based on providing the Valley Disposal Service franchisees a combined total rate increase which would achieve a 100% operating ratio. On May 13, 1982, Valley Disposal Service requested that the Board consider including $74,424 of interest expense projected to be expended during the April 1, 1982 through March 31, 1983 period, as an allowable operating expense. At its May 20, 1982 Board Meeting, the Board of Directors requested the following information: 1) Clarification from the garbage collector regarding the specific rates which would be affected by any further rate adjustments produced by including $74,424 of interest as an allowable operating expense. 2) A Sou rce and App I i cat i on of Funds Statement. The following attachments to this Position Paper provide the information requested: Attachment I - In a letter dated June 14, 1982, S.

DOLAN General Manager-Chief Engineer DATE June 8, 1982 SUBJECT TYPE OF ACTION 1982-1983 ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY CHARGE CONDUCT PUBLIC HEAR- ING; ESTABLISH EQC RATE SUBMITTED BY Walter N. Funasaki, Finance Officer INITIATING DEPT./DIV. Accounting Division ISSUE: A Public Hearing is scheduled on June II, 1982 to receive public comment on the establishment of the Environmental Quality Charge (EQC) rates for the 1982- 1983 fiscal year. The 1982-1983 EQC rates should be establ ished by the Board of Directors after public comment is obtained. BACKGROUND: The District Code and State law require an annual review of the EQC rates, and establishment of the rates by resolution of the Board of Directors in consideration of the budgeted revenues and expenditures and general reserves of the Running Expense Fund. A prel iminary Operations and Maintenance Budget for the 1982-1983 fiscal year was submitted for Board consideration at the June 3, 1982 Board Meeting. The 1982-1983 Operations and Maintenance Budget is not in final form as it does not include provisions for wage and benefits adjustments which are the subject of on-going negotiations with employee bargaining groups. It is necessary, however, that the EQC rates be established by June 17, 1982 in order to meet a deadl ine imposed by the Contra Costa County for submittal of the 1982-1983 Environmental Qual ity Charges due from users to permit collection on the County tax bills. A summary of expenditures, revenues and reserves of prior fiscal years, the present fiscal year and the 1982-1983 fiscal year is presented in Attachment I. As shown, the reserves as of July I, 1981 of $1,049,765 is projected to increase by $1,027,686, representing the excess of revenues over expenditures projected for the fiscal year ended June 30, 1982; the addition to reserves is a direct result of lower than budgeted expenditures projected in 1981-1982 due to expense reduction measures achieved principally in the Plant Operations Department. The projected reserve balance as of the beginning of the 1982-1983 fiscal year provides the Board with the means to maintain the present 1981-1982 EQC rates by application of reserves to meet anticipated 1982-1983 wage and benefits changes, and to maintain a desired level of reserves. Public correspondence received relating to the matter of the Publ ic Hearing is provided as Attachments I I and I I I. RECOMMENDATION: Conduct a Publ ic Hearing and establ ish the 1982-1983 Environ- mental Quality Charge rates for all users, or defer the setting of the EQC rates to the June 17, 1982 Board Meeting, as determined appropriate.
