AUTHORIZATION OF FUNDS FOR BIOLOGICAL PHOSPHORUS
REMOVAL PilOT PLANT STUDY ($140,000.00)
AUTHORIZATION FOR FUNDS
SUBMITTED BY
John A. larson, Special Projects
INITIATING DEPT./DIV.
Engineering Division
BACKGROUND:
Preliminary work to date has shown that the biological phosphorus removal process could
significantly reduce the cost of reclaimed water; however, pilot plant studies are
required to confirm process performance under actual conditions. The Board of Directors
has previously approved the concept of pilot scale testing and $7,000 of sewer con-
struction funds were authorized for the preliminary work.
The proposed pilot plant study consists of the installation and eight month operation
of a 2-gallon per minute pilot plant. The design, construction, and operation would
be accomplished by District personnel. Direction would be provided by a committee
comprised of outside consultants and District personnel (both engineering and opera-
tions). The estimated cost of this study is $140,000.
To date, the State Water Resources Control Board has expressed interest in the pilot
plant study. They have authorized $6,000 for the purchase and preliminary installation
of pilot plant equipment previously used at the Reno/Sparks Treatment Plant. Subject
to an acceptable application, they would be willing to fund the entire pilot plant
study (at 87t%).
RECOMMENDATION:
Authorize $140,000 in Sewer Construction funds for the design, installation, and opera-
tion of a biological phosphorus removal pilot plant subject to approval of grant
funding by the State Water Resources Control Board.

ADOPT RESOLUTION TO INCREASE LEVEL OF GARBAGE COLLECTION
SERVICE IN THE TOWN OF MORAGA
ADOPT RESOLUTION
SUBMITTED BY
Walter N. Funasaki
INITIATING DEPT./DIV.
Accounting Division
ISSUE: The Town Counci I of the Town of Moraga has requested a modification to the
residential garbage collection service by the addition of a weekly trimmings pick-up
and three general clean-up collections annually.
BACKGROUND: A Publ ic Hearing was conducted by the Board of Directors on November 6,
1980 to consider the requested increase in level of service. The collector, Orinda-
Moraga Disposal Service, Inc., agreed to provide the additional service for $1.00
per month chargeable to each residential customer and individually served
condominium unit.
During the Public Hearing, opposition to applying the new service levels to
condominium units was expressed. The District staff was directed to meet with Town
officials and the collector to develop a procedure to permit condominium units to
determine whether they desired the new service.
George Navone, President of Orinda-Moraga Disposal Service, Inc., contacted the
homeowners' association of each condominium complex in Moraga to determine whether
they wished to obtain all of the additional service for $1.00 per unit, only the
three general clean-up collection for $.75 per unit or to be excluded from
participation in the additional service. The Moraga Country Club, comprised of 325
units, decided to obtain only the three general clean-up collections; all otl1er
condominium complexes, totaling 414 units, decided not to obtain any additional
service.
Orinda-Moraga Disposal Service, Inc. has proposed a rate of $1.15 per month for
single family residences to offset the revenue reduction caused by the non-
participation of the majority of the condominium complexes. Gary Chase, Town
Manager of the Town of Moraga, has accepted this rate on behalf of the Town Council.
The collector has agreed to provide the new level of garbage collection service
beginning February 1, 1981, and to adhere to the additional rate of $1.15 per month
for single family residences and $.75 per month for Moraga County Club units for a
period of fourteen months beginning February 1, 1981 so as not to affect a garbage
rate increase application which may be submitted for the period beginning April 1,
1981.
RECOMMENDATION: Adopt a resolution to provide the increased level of garbage
collection service for the Town of Moraga. A draft resolution is attached.

ENCLOSURES:
1. Copy of estimate from Champion's Plumbing and Heating Company
in the amount of $1,972.00.
2, Statement from Advanced Office Systems in the amount of $647.50.
3. Photograph showing damaged range.
After delivering your release to the Credit Union, their Assistant
Manager, Mr. Phil Wakeman stated that he would turn the matter over
to their Board of Directors after obtaining estimates for the in-
stallation of the Back Water Check valve. He aoparently called someone':.':
from your office and obtained a list of contractors who would possibly
by interested in doing the work and was told that it would cost some-
where in the area of between $500 and $1,000. After obtaining three
or four estimates, they found that the low estimate from Champion11s
Plumbing and Heating was in the amount of $1,972. The other bids were
in excess of $2,200.
The Credit Union's position is that they believe that the Central
Contra Costa County Sanitary District is at least partially respon-
sible for their having to incur the additional costs for installing
the Back Water Check valve, etc. They argue that if the system was
properly designed and maintained, they wouldn't have to incur the
additional cost of installing back-up systems to prevent accidents
such as this from re-occurring.

cost of $647.50 for micorfilming the 0~aged documents and half
the cost of installing the back water check valve, etc., which
amount of $986.00. This would bring the total settlement to
