CONDUCT PUBLIC HEARINGS TO RECEIVE PUBLIC COMMENT ON THE 2002- 2003 OPERATIONS AND MAINTENANCE BUDGET AND THE SELF INSURANCE FUND BUDGET. AND ON PLACING THE 2002-2003 SEWER SERVICE CHARGES ON THE COUNTY TAX ROLL FOR COLLECTION Mr. Batts, General Manager, stated that today the Board will be asked to approve the Operations and Maintenance (O&M) Budget and Self Insurance Fund Budget, and to approve the collection of the 2002-2003 Sewer Service Charges on the County tax roll. The O&M Budget is the culmination of considerable planning, months of effort, and many hours of staff time. The budget reflects the priorities of the District as discussed with the Board in the January Board Workshop and in recent Board meetings: cost effective operations, good customer service, and protecting public assets. Mr. Batts introduced Ms. Deborah Ratcliff, Controller, who stated that the O&M and Self Insurance Fund Budgets were reviewed in detail at the last Board Meeting. Ms. Ratcliff reviewed the projections for the current fiscal year 2001-2002 and the 2002-2003 Self Insurance Fund Budget, stating that revenues are projected to be $418,000 and expenses are projected to be $975,000, resulting in a decrease in reserves of $557,000. At June 30, 2003, the Self Insurance Fund balance is projected to be $3,936,186. 06 06 02 193 Ms. Ratcliff provided a comparison of the 2001-2002 O&M Budget compared to the 2002-2003 O&M Budget, noting that revenues are projected to increase by 1.9 percent from $40,992,000 in 2001-2002 to $41,761,000 in 2002-2003. O&M expenses are projected to increase by 3.0 percent from $40,209,000 in 2001-2002 to $41,422,000 in 2002-2003. The fund balance at June 30, 2003 is projected to increase by $339,000 to $5,522,000. Ms. Ratcliff highlighted changes in major expense categories from the 2001-2002 O&M Budget to the 2002-2003 O&M Budget, noting that the $3 million increase in Salaries and Benefits is offset by the $2.6 million savings in Utilities and the $265,000 savings in Outside Services. Overall, the 2002-2003 O&M Budget is increasing by $2.3 million over 2001-2002. Ms. Ratcliff summarized the 2002-2003 Capital Improvement Budget (CIB) discussed in detail at the public hearing held on May 23, 2002. CIB revenues without Dougherty Valley are projected to be $20.3 million, CIB expenses without Dougherty Valley are projected to be $28.2 million. Overall revenue over expense will decrease by $8 million. Ms. Ratcliff stated that is one of the main reasons the District went forward with bond financing. At 2: 12 p.m., President Pro Tem Nejedly opened the public hearing to receive public comment on the 2002-2003 O&M Budget and the 2002-2003 Self Insurance Fund Budget. There being no comments, the public hearing was closed. It was moved by Member Boneysteele and seconded by Member Hockett, that the 2002- 2003 Operations and Maintenance Budget and the 2002-2003 Self Insurance Fund Budget be approved.

BIDS AND AWARDS a. AUTHORIZE AWARD OF A CONTRACT TO ROTO-ROOTER FOR PROVIDING LOCATING SERVICES FOR UNDERGROUND UTILITIES b. AUTHORIZE AWARD OF A CONTRACT TO ROTO-ROOTER FOR PROVIDING NON- DESTRUCTIVE POTHOLING OF UNDERGROUND UTILITIES Mr. Batts, General Manager, introduced Mr. Tom Godsey, Associate Engineer, who stated that service contract bids were received for non-destructive potholing for underground utilities and for underground utility locating. These contracts will facilitate the collection 06 06 02 194 of sewer design information for the next three years. Historically it has been more economical to bundle these projects and bid the work, rather than having several small contracts. The contract for underground utility locating will provide location of utilities and sewers for later survey and potholing, and the potholing contract will provide information on the depth and verification of utilities and sewers. Locating and potholing is done for collection system design and utility coordination. It is intermittent batch work. Non-destructive potholing requires expensive equipment and a construction crew. Mr. Godsey showed photographs of the vacuum excavator used for this work. Following discussion of the specialized equipment and crews required for the non- destructive potholing, it was moved by Member Hockett and seconded by Member Boneysteele, that award of a contract be authorized to Roto-Rooter, the lowest responsible bidder, for providing locating services of underground utilities for a three-year period; and that award of a contract be authorized to Roto-Rooter, the lowest responsible bidder, for providing non-destructive potholing of underground utilities for a three-year period. There being no objection, the motion was approved with President Menesini being absent. a. 06 06 8. REPORTS GENERAL MANAGER 1 ) Mr. Batts, General Manager, introduced Mr. William E. Brennan, Capital Projects Division Manager, who reported that the concrete has been installed over about half of the two 12-inch ductile iron pipes in the bottom of the Dougherty Tunnel. The contractor is moving to the east end of the tunnel to finish that portion of the work. Construction of the structure is beginning at the west portal. After the heavy construction is completed, the site will be finished and landscaped. Mr. Brennan reported that there have been three additional complaints, two from a neighbor next to the San Ramon Pumping Station and one from a resident down the street. The total number of public contacts to date is 55. Of those, 42 were complaints, 11 were requests for information, and 2 were compliments. Mr. Brennan reviewed the recent complaints relating to the use of rebuilt pumps. Discussion followed. Mr. Brennan reported that GSE, the contractor on the San Ramon Pumping Station Project, has begun preparatory work. With regard to the right-of-way issue for the San Ramon Force Main Project, the right of entry permit has not yet been received from the County. The application has been fully completed together with the required insurance. At the County's request, a surveyor has confirmed the location of the easements and new plans are being done. Member Lucey expressed concern with the slowness of the process and the County's lack of cooperation. Mr. Batts stated that he has talked with the County Administrator and the County is making significant efforts to work with the District and expedite the process. 2) Mr. Batts, General Manager, stated that in each of the past four years, the Board has authorized up to $1 million for the District's Contractual Assessment District (CAD) Program. Mr. Batts stated that today staff will provide a status report of the CAD Program as the fiscal year draws to a close. In addition, staff wishes to propose a modification of the interest rate that the District charges CAD participants. Since program inception, the District has charged an interest rate equal to the District's current Local Agency Investment Fund (LAIF) rate plus 1 percent. During the past year the LAIF rate has fallen dramatically. Staff feels it would be fiscally prudent to consider a minimum interest rate or some other modification. Mr. Batts introduced Mr. Curtis W. Swanson, Environmental Services Division Manager, who briefly reviewed the CAD Program 2001-2002 budget status. During the 2001-2002 fiscal year, the Board authorized 02 195 three CAD projects (Entrada Verde, Barbee Lane, and Angelo/EI Sombro) totaling $600,359, leaving $399,641 of the $1 million authorization available for other CAD projects. In 2002-2003, the District is aware of six potential CAD projects (Echo Spring, Camille Court, EI Alamo, Via Serena/Wayland Lane, Arbor Lane/Bernie Lane, and Smith Road) with a total estimated cost of $955,000. Mr. Swanson stated that with regard to CAD interest rates, the Board CAD policy sets the CAD interest rate at the current LAIF rate plus 1 percent fixed at the time the Board approves the project and authorizes the assessment to be made. Since 1997, the District's LAIF rate has fluctuated between 4 percent and 6.5 percent. The interest rate for the last CAD approved by the Board was 7.5 percent. Since Fall 2001, the District's LAIF rate has fallen to the current rate of 2.85 percent, making the CAD interest rate 3.85 percent if a CAD were approved today. Mr. Swanson stated that staff would propose to come back to the Board in August 2002, for the Board to consider revising the CAD interest rate and incorporating that revision into the District Code. Mr. Swanson reviewed minimum CAD interest rate options. Discussion followed in which some Board Members indicated that they thought the interest rate was a floating rate. The Board thanked staff for bringing this matter to the Board's attention. 3) Mr. Batts, General Manager, introduced Mr. Alexandr Mestetsky, Assistant Engineer, who reported on the Lafayette Sewer Renovation Project, Phase 3A, DP 5607. The original contract amount was $168,350 and Ranger Pipeline, Inc. was the contractor. The project included installation of 1,500 feet of sewer using both open cut and pipe bursting methods. Notice to proceed was issued April 22, 2002 and the contract completion date was June 17, 2002. All project work has been completed pending some punch list items. There has been one contract change order in the amount of $8,600 requested by Collection System Operations (CSO). All work was completed on schedule and under budget. There were two public contacts on the project relating to minor fence damage. Both were resolved by the contractor. Using a map and photographs, Mr. Mestetsky described the project locations, the work that was involved, and the various methods used. Much of the work was done in narrow residential and private roads. Although space was extremely limited, residents could still get in and out of their homes. CSO had identified three critical spot repairs in the project area. The contractor was able to mobilize and do those repairs. Mr. Mestetsky showed photographs and described that work. The District also worked closely with the City of Lafayette coordinating this project with the City's paving project, to reduce the duration of construction and minimize impacts on residents. 4) Mr. Batts, General Manager, stated that the building schedule of the Dougherty Valley developers, Windemere BLC and Shapell, requires sewer service for connections prior to the Dougherty Tunnel and Trunk Sewer being completed. The District agreed to provide service via a new temporary pumping station to be built by Windemere. The pumping station, known as East Branch, is one of four pumping stations that will be eliminated by the Dougherty Tunnel and Trunk Sewer. The East Branch Pumping Station was accepted by the District and began operation on May 22, 2002. Mr. Batts introduced Mr. Jarred Miyamoto-Mills, Principal Engineer, who used a map to describe the location of the East Branch Pumping Station. Mr. Miyamoto-Mills stated that in November 2001, the Board entered into an agreement with Windemere BLC to allow them to build this temporary pumping station. As Mr. Batts stated, when the Dougherty Tunnel and Trunk Sewer is completed, this pumping station will be eliminated. The San Ramon Fire District fire station is about 500 feet up 06 06 02 196 06 06 the road from the East Branch Pumping Station. About 15 model homes and the fire station are currently connected to the East Branch Pumping Station. Another dozen homes are ready for connection and about 200 connections are expected before the end of the year. Mr. Miyamoto-Mills stated that the East Branch Pumping Station has capacity for about 300 gallons per minute and can serve up to about 500 homes. The East Branch Pumping Station meets all of the requirements for a permanent pumping station. It has a complete control and telemetry system and emergency generator. 5) Mr. Batts, General Manager, announced that on May 24, 2002, there was an overflow from a manhole on Vessing Drive in Pleasant Hill. The overflow was caused by root intrusion. Mr. Batts described the clean up effort and posting of the nearby creek while additional flushing was done to ensure that all spots of cloudiness had been removed and the creek was clear. Mr. Ray Balcolm of the Regional Water Quality Control Board visited the site and the RWQCB has been kept informed of the District's actions. The cleanup work has been completed and the signs have been removed. 6) Mr. Batts, General Manager, announced that a public workshop for the Lafayette Sewer Renovation Project, Phase 3B, was held at 7:00 p.m. on May 29, 2002 at the Lafayette Community Center. Five households came to the workshop but one did not stay for the presentation. Three hundred and forty letters were sent out notifying residents of the workshop. Member Boneysteele attended the workshop. Mr. Wesley Adams, Senior Engineering Assistant, made an excellent presentation. It appears that no one in attendance is opposed to the project. 7) Mr. Batts, General Manager, reported that Director of Engineering Ann E. Farrell attended the Central Contra Costa Solid Waste Authority (CCCSWA) Board Meeting on May 30, 2002 to discuss reduction in the number of household hazardous waste (HHW) mobile collection events. Electronic waste (e-waste) collection was also discussed. CCCSWA was disappointed but somewhat understanding of the District's reluctance to accept e-waste at the permanent facility. However, they felt strongly that the District should not discontinue one of the three mobile HHW mobile collection events without adequate notice to the cities and general public. The CCCSW A Board asked Ms. Farrell to carry a message back to our Board that they would greatly appreciate the continuation of the three events for this next fiscal year. This would give both agencies the opportunity to work together to look at alternative sources of funding; and if funding is not available, to do outreach to the public and determine the preferred locations for the remaining two events. Ms. Janet Schneider, the CCCSWA Executive Director, and Mr. Mike Shimansky, CCCSWA Board Chair, are planning to attend the June 20, 2002 District Board Meeting to request that the Board consider maintaining a third HHW mobile collection event for the next fiscal year and that the District work with the CCCSW A for a long-term solution for future funding. 8) Mr. Batts, General Manager, stated that on June 5, 2002, Mr. Charles (Chick) Adams, the District's Bond Counsel from Jones Hall, met with staff to sign various bond documents. This morning, US Bank wired the net proceeds to the District's account with the County and those funds are being invested in a separate District Local Agency Investment Fund (LAIF) account. The District has been notified that this fund transfer has been completed. The bond documents include language which specifies that property taxes are designated funds for the repayment of debt. In the event that the District loses the property taxes, the District would be obligated to hire an advisor to analyze any needed rate increase to cover the District's debt service requirement. As the Board is aware from previous bond O. 2,,- '; 197 agreements, the debt payments are guaranteed by the District's ability to raise its rates. b. COUNSEL FOR THE DISTRICT None c. SECRETARY OF THE DISTRICT None d. BOARD MEMBERS 1 ) Member Hockett reported on the May 23, 2002 Sanitation and Water Agencies meeting presentations and tour of the District's Environmental Laboratory. Member Hockett commended Chemist II Susan Hasselwander and Associate Engineer Don Berger on their excellent presentations. 9. TREATMENT PLANT a. AUTHORIZE THE GENERAL MANAGER TO EXECUTE A SOLE SOURCE PURCHASE OF TERRY TURBINE REPLACEMENT PARTS FOR AN AMOUNT NOT TO EXCEED $1.050.000 Mr. Batts, General Manager, stated that the treatment plant's steam turbine system is a critical element of the secondary aeration process. The system components are over 25 years old and are currently in need of repair or replacement. As part of the Capital Improvement Budget, a project was developed to refurbish and make improvements to the entire system to ensure continued reliability and maintainability. Mr. Batts introduced Mr. James L. Belcher, Senior Engineer, who stated that the 2500 horsepower steam-driven turbine supplies air to the secondary process. It is absolutely essential to meeting the District's National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permit. The unit operates 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Its use saves the District and its ratepayers over $1,500,000 per year in avoided electrical costs. As Mr. Batts indicated, the system components are currently in need of repair and refurbishment. Mr. Belcher reviewed the equipment purchase items totaling $1,050,000 as set forth in the handout provided to the Board. Mr. Belcher stated that there is a 20 to 22 week lead time to engineer and manufacture the new diaphragms so pre-purchase of these parts would be a great benefit. The pre-purchase of turbine parts will be included in the installation contract that will be bid this summer. Sole source purchase of the Terry Turbine replacement parts from Dresser-Rand Corporation is also requested because Dresser-Rand is the manufacturer's representative, the internal turbine equipment is proprietary, the external equipment requires an integrated systems approach, other suppliers would need to reverse engineer and custom fabricate parts, and Dresser-Rand will warrant parts and guarantee performance. Mr. Kenton L. Aim, Counsel for the District, presented a resolution for the Board's consideration, authorizing the sole source purchase. It was moved by Member Nejedly and seconded by Member Lucey, that the General Manager be authorized to execute a sole source purchase of Terry Turbine replacement parts in an amount not to exceed $1,050,000; that the Board finds that under the circumstances, Dresser-Rand is the only supplier reasonably available for purchasing of upgraded, warranted replacement equipment for the Terry Turbines and that it is in the best interest of the District to proceed with a sole source purchase from Dresser-Rand; and that Resolution No. 2002-043 be adopted to that effect. Motion approved on the following vote: 06 06 02 198 AYES: Members: Nejedly, Lucey, Hockett, Boneysteele NOES: Members: None ABSENT: Members: Menesini 10. APPROVAL OF MINUTES a.

There being no objection, the motion was approved with President Menesini being absent. 12. BUDGET AND FINANCE a. RECEIVE APRIL 2002 FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Ms. Deborah Ratcliff, Controller, reviewed the results of operations and maintenance (O&M) for the month of April 2002, noting that expenditures were $426,000 less than budget, representing a 12.9 percent favorable variance. Year-to-date O&M expenditures were $2.7 million less than budget, representing an 8.5 percent favorable variance. Year- to-date O&M revenues of $36,768,000 were right on budget. Ms. Ratcliff reported that year-to-date Sewer Construction Fund expenditures were $27,936,000, and year-to-date Sewer Construction Fund revenues were $20,600,000, for a deficit of $7,336,000. Ms. Ratcliff reported that the District's temporary investments were held in Treasury bills and Treasury notes and the District's Local Agency Investment Fund (LAIF) account with interest rates ranging from 1.6 percent to 6.77 percent. The latest interest rate as of April 2002 was 1.6 percent. The average yield of the District's LAIF account through March 2002 was 2.8 percent. President Pro Tem Nejedly declared that the April 2002 Financial Statements were duly received. 13. EMERGENCY SITUATIONS REQUIRING BOARD ACTION None 14.
