SUBJECT: JANUARY 19, 2010 COMMITTEE MEETING There was one outstanding question from the last Board Budget and Finance Committee meeting which required additional staff research. The question and answer is provided below: 178837 International Mailing Equipment, (HASLER Inc.) -What does the invoice for $309.75 cover? HASLER Inc. is the company that supplies the District's postage meter. Postage rates for flat rate mailings and several other categories increased on January 4, 2010, and per HASLER, may increase again in May. The District must purchase a new software chip to install in the meter each time there is a postage increase. The $309.75 paid to HASLER was for the new software chip for the January increase and included a $50 insurance fee that will cover any potential additional increases in specific postage category costs during 2010. y.a. 0 0 N N -O c a` A i d i ...' d x w 0 z W U Z N Z LL J W ~~`~ ~ ~ U ~ ~ a ~ c~ = ~ U V1 ~ ~ (~ O LL' J ~ ~ J <n - U '_m E o ~ >'U d C~ ~ Q ~ ' U l}i ~ d 0 0 N N 0 r O N E E _~ U CJ a } 3 m o z O a` v `c w C t m R W `O R ~ ~ L. ~ a a d t7 0 0 a ~ ~ w O ~ to o r o aN 0 ~ Efl r a d i d N d d J J W ~ ~ h- j w C 1 m = w O ~ ~ 1 Q H C ~R ~ T 1 o Q U ~c~_ d al m ~ C 1 U~ HOC d 1 ~ c 1 t ~ ~ 3 ~ W 1 H Q o ~ y y C d ~ ~ i ~ M U c ~ O f~ Q v v,- rn m c J o o' c ~ ° ~' c oo`< ~ ~ O O C V] (n G J F c/J (n G 3k ~ N c W 4. 4.

KELLY, GENERAL MANAGER ~~~~`7- - J ~ p/~µ FROM: RANDALL MUSGRAVES, DIRECTOR OF ADMINISTRATION l~ SUBJECT: PROPERTY MANAGER EXPENSES FOR 2009 At the January 19, 2010 Committee meeting, staff was requested to report the costs for the District's Property Manager, David Deutscher Company. Attached is a detailed report of expenditures for Mr. Deutscher for 2009. There are five components to the full payment made. 1. The District has a contractual agreement to pay Mr. Deutscher for the leasing of District property, primarily the 4737 Imhoff Place Warehouse bays, and property management on a monthly basis. In 2009, payments totaled approximately $15,000. 2. The District reimburses Mr. Deutscher for all repair costs paid for the repair and maintenance of District facilities. Our agreement is that Mr. Deutscher schedules and pays for the repair and submits the invoice as documentation for reimbursement. There is no mark-up for reimbursement. This totaled approximately $45,000 in 2009. 3. Mr. Deutscher also schedules and pays for capitalized modifications and capital projects to the facilities or property and submits the invoice as documentation for reimbursement. There is no mark-up for reimbursement. This totaled approximately $11,000 in 2009. 4. The fourth payment type is fora 10% management fee for District facilities or capital projects. An example of charges for capital facilities was the mofications made to Bay 1 for CSO's occupancy. An example of a capital project is the implementation of a pipe to enclose the seasonal drainage ditch. The management fee is due to the significant additional work for capital projects. This totaled approximately $5,000 in 2009. 5. The District has hired and paid Mr. Deutscher to assist on special projects. The only special project to date was for an extensive search for available properties to relocate the CSO facility. Other special projects have been less time consuming and Mr. Deutscher has performed the work without additional compensation. An example was follow-up work regarding CSO relocation and assistance with the golf course proposal for the Lagiss property.

KELLY, GENERAL MANAGER ' SUBJECT: CALIFORNIA ASSOCIATION OF SANITATION AGENCIES MEMBER BENEFIT AND DUES INFORMATION For over 50 years, the California Association of Sanitation Agencies (CASH) has been ensuring clean water for Californians. In the mid-1950s, former State Senator John Nejedly who was Counsel for the Central Contra Costa Sanitary District (CCCSD), conceptualized the need for a professional organization to represent all of the state's sanitary districts. As a result of Mr. Nejedly's efforts, the "California Sanitary District Association" was formed in 1956 and later became CASA. While the issues have changed since the formation of CASA, the need for representation of the state's wastewater collection and treatment agencies remain. CASA, through its staff and member volunteers, provides its members with the following: 1. Representation before the State Water Resources Control Board (SWRCB), regional boards, and other state agencies on decisions and policies including both submittal of comments and testifying. The upcoming SWRCB reconsideration of the Waste Discharge Requirement for Sanitary Sewer Overflows is a current example of where member agencies' interests are represented. 2. Direct and grassroots advocacy on the federal, state, and local levels on legislation and regulations affecting public wastewater agencies. CASA represented our interest in limiting the amount of property tax that was borrowed from us last year. 3. Tracking and commenting on emerging and pending regulations. 4. CASA holds three conferences a year to keep members up-to-date on important technical, regulatory, and legislative matters, and on emerging trends. 5. The Washington D.C. Annual CASA Conference provides up-to-date national regulatory and legislative information, and an opportunity to meet directly with our elected officials and the federal regulatory officials. 6. CASA Attorney Members provide up-to-date legal information and litigation support to the membership. 7. CASA Associate Members offer current technical information and expertise through networking at the conferences and identifying key topics for presentations. 8. CASA Sponsors Tri-TAC - A technical advisory committee representing CASA, League of California Cities, and the California Water Environment Association. Tri- TAC meets monthly to improve environmental programs by working with state and federal regulatory agencies as well as interest groups on matters related to Publicly Owned Treatment Works. As a result of these efforts, CASA is viewed and accepted as a trustworthy and influential source of information at the federal level by the Environmental Protection Agency, the state level by the SWRCB, and at the local level by the regional boards. CASA has been able to attract outstanding persons in the field of water quality to share their expertise, knowledge, and insight with the organization at its conferences for the benefit of its members. Attached is a list of 2009 CASA members and their membership dues. Also attached is the 2009 CASA Annual Report, and an Annual Dues Calculation Statement. ~.. ~ a= ~. Y"~ '~ ~~.

And I have to tell you that serving as President of this distinguished association has not only been rewarding, but truly fun and enjoyable as well. In leading the charge, I connected and networked with some of the most amazing and knowledgeable people in public service, advocacy and technical arenas regarding advancements in wastewater treatment and collection, recycled water and biosolids resources. And every step of the way, each has shown great enthusiasm for their jobs and taking on new and greater challenges. We live now via e-mail, Internet and Twitter but nothing can replace old-fashioned face- to-face communication. As a former television anchor, salesman, high school teacher and current mayor, I am part entertainer, hand shaker and public policy maker. In leading by example and cultivating a culture of fun, excitement and passion for the important work that we do, I hope I inspired innovation and teamwork in a business friendly environment in setting forth to achieve our mutual goals. What I have learned myself is with CASA, this is an impressive organization that prides itself on being progressive and innovative. At the start of 2009, the CASA Board planning session resulted in setting goals and priorities that served as a strong foundation for our working agenda. In spite of massive budget cutting amidst the state's worsening economy, we can be proud of our accomplishments: • Our grassroots lobbying efforts enabled individual agencies to meet with legislators in their district offices to discuss issues of interest to the wastewater community. • Our voices were heard in the halls of Congress where connecting member agencies with federal policy makers reached new levels of cooperation. • The CASA Mid-Year, Spring, Annual and Washington D.C. conferences brought creative thinkers and leaders together in meaningful ways. • Recognition of major accomplishments became more widely acknowledged and celebrated with an awards ceremony that will be difficult to top. A special thanks goes to my fellow Board Members whose collective brain trust and strategic vision are unmatched.

Harry T Price CASA President 2008-?_009 ectative Director's Message As members of CASA, we strive to ensure that we stay focused on our overriding goal to protect the public health and environment for current and future generations through the work that we do. It is worrisome in our dual roles as parents and family members, friends, neighbors and community leaders what will become of future generations if we do not preserve now, what could easily be gone later. The availability of clean water is important to everyone. As traditional resources continue to diminish due to overuse, waste and pollution, the wastewater community is working even harclr;r } ~ ~ ~ _ to provide alternative sources through recycling. With climate change being a global concern. the wastewater community again steps up bringing on-line renewable energy projects. CASA ~ ~+ members are shifting from being viewed as the problem to being identified as the solution. ,;~' But this year, we were not without our challenges. In the year 2009, California faced the greatest economic downturn since the Great Depression. It was a year mired in red ink in which: • Mandatory furloughs were ordered for state workers • Unemployment soared to a record 12 percent • Two million jobs were lost • A projected $11.2 billion budget shortfall was expected to top more than $40 billion throughout the 2009-2010 fiscal year • The state credit rating plunged to a new low as state IOUs exceeded $470 million • The budget passed in July with $15 billion in service cuts Like all of you, my hope is that the worst is behind us and together we can bring California "back on its feet." There are so many opportunities for the wastewater community to help mitigate so many of the state's challenges as they relate to water quality and renewable energy. Even with these challenges, CASA achieved victories on many fronts in the battle over state, federal, legal, regulatory and biosolids' issues despite the seemingly insurmountable fiscal challenges that stood in our way. Credit, as always, goes to our amazing team of volunteer leaders, committee members and member advocates who carried our voice to both the state and nation's capitols to fight for vital clean water projects. And also. my hats off to our dedicated staff and team of legislative advocates who worked Tirelessly to coordinate conferences and workshops and ensure CASA members have the tools and resources to connect to key stakeholders, partners and top policyrnakers. Their combined talents and teamwork allowed us as a powerful statewide organization to make a positive di{ference in each of our respective communities and give us hope to look forward to better days ahead. Catherine Smith, CAE Executive Director LEGISLATION State's Fiscal Situation Continues to be Bleak When the new two year session convened on December 1, 2008, Governor Schwarzenegger declared a fiscal emergency and called a Special Session to deal with a cash flow crisis approaching $40 billion over a period of t 8 months. He subsequently called a second "fiscal emergency" Special Session, under his constitutional authority. But with the state sinking further into debt, 2009 was a difficult year on the state legislative front as the Democrat-controlled Legislature fought tooth and nail with the GOP minority and the Governor in finding common ground to resolve California's budget crisis. In February, the Governor and Legislature attempted to close a growing $14 billion deficit by passing a second Budget for the 2008-09 year, which included a series of measures placed on the May 19 ballot that were directly linked to solving the Budget situation. However, California voters overwhelmingly rejected the proposed solutions. By July, the projected deficit ballooned to $26 billion. To solve it, the four legislative leaders and the governor agreed to a 2009-2010 Budget package that included more than $15 billion in cuts, would permanently take or borrow $3.7 billion from local government, accelerate personal and corporate income taxes, and shift $1 billion in payments to schools into future years. This was in sharp contrast to the delayed budget passed in September 2008 that included no loc~rl ~pwernment borrowing and avoided tax increasr~s. Unfortunately, the budget That was passed is likely to provide only short-terra relief in an uncertain economy. Furthermore, in two years, the taxes enacted as pars of the February Budget agreement are due to expire. In addition, lhr~ state will bf: rc~yuirES] to repay the $2 billion in property taxes borrawerl fnnn kx;al government within the next three yr•,us, Sweeping Water Package Signed into Law by Governor -Significant Set-Aside for Water Recycling Quote: "Water is the lifeblood of everything we do in California." -Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger Background: Governor Schwarzenegger put water at the tap of his legislative agenda, threatening a mass veto of more than 700 bills if the Legislature failed to solve California's long term water needs by the end of the 2009 Session. At issue: Fixing the long-neglected Sacramento- San Joaquin Delta, which 23 million Californians depend on for drinking water. Also at play: How to fund an expansion of the state's water system that analysts say would require billions of dollars in bonds to finance ecosystem and infrastructure improvements and other additions. As the midnight bill-signing deadline loomed, the Governor called off his threat because legislators had negotiated a framework for fixing the infrastructure. He gave lawmakers more time to iron out the details and then called a "special session" on water. Key Issues: • Dams. Many environmental groups oppose them and farm interests favor them. • Groundwater monitoring. Democrats propose statewide groundwater monitoring as a requirement for their support and suggest higher penalties for those who take water illegally. However, Republicans and agricultural groundwater users oppose it contending it would lead to state intrusions on private property. • Conservation. Key legislators want changes in a proposed urban conservation provision that would mandate a 20 percent statewide cut in per-capita water use by the year 2020. • Oversight. Central to the plan is a new government body, known as the Delta Stewardship Council, to oversee the delta. Communities in the Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta want more representation on the new state council. • Bond. State Treasurer Bill Lockyer warned that saddling California's depleted General Fund "would require cutting even deeper into crucial services already reeling from billions of dollars in reductions." He argued that new water projects should mainy be financed by users, not the general public. Sticking Points: • Inclusion of an $11 billion bond which opponents ankl (tie state couldn't afford. • Lessening enforcement provisions from the water package that cracked down on illegal diversions of water, boosted fines and increased the power of the state water boards -provisions demanded by environmentalists bul vehemently opposed by Republicans and water districts. • CASA Amendments were sought and included in the final package to ensure that the authority of the new Delta Stewardship Council did not override existing law and regulations governing the wastewater industry. Final Package Approved After months of political wrangling, the Legislature finally agreed to a sweeping water overhaul on November 4, 2009. The historic deal includes new rules for water conservation -with most localities being asked to reduce water use by 20 percent over the next 10 years and restoration of the aging Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta ecosystem. The comprehensive $1 1 billion water package also includes a significant victory (or CASA and WateReuse, as it contains $t billion for water recycling. CASA argued before the legislative committees on behalf of a set-aside for water recycling. Thanks to the support of the policy committees, legislative leaders, WateReuse, and the Los Angeles delegation, the original amount of $500 million for water recycling was ultimately increased to $1 billion. Status: The $11 billion general obligation bond will go before voters in November 2010. continued on page 8 STATE LEGISLATION CASA, Water and Y Wastewater Agencies Spared the Worst from ' State Property Tax Shift With the state out of money, local government funds were raided, despite previous promises by the state that local property taxes would not be touched. AB 15 (4X) narrowly passed on the final day of budget negotiations and was signed into law on July 28, 2009. It authorized about $2 billion to be borrowed from local governments through the suspension of Proposition 1 A which was passed by voters in 2004. Until the money is repaid, counties and cities and special districts would have 8 percent of their property tax revenues, received in 2008-2009, shifted to help balance the state budget. While AB 14 (4X) was the legislative vehicle that actually suspended Proposition 1A, its companion measure AB 15 (4X) provides some relief to local governments reeling from the loss of property tax revenue. AB 15 (4X) allows local governments to participate in a newly established Joint Powers Authority created by the state for the purpose of "securitizing" a temporary loan to offset the state's borrowing action. Potential Impact: Under the California Communities Propostion to Securdization Program. cities. counties and special districts that choose to enroll in the program will be able to receive advanced repayment of Proposition 1 A funds borrowed from them by the state. The state will pay for the borrowing interest incurred and the costs of issuance required for each agency to participate. Local agencies and special districts participating in the securitization program are anticipated to receive 100 percent of their respective Proposition 1 A receivables. Result: The securitization program is expected to be in place by Decenrber 2009 Mounting Opposition by CASA Member Agencies Prevents Greater Losses to Water and Wastewater Agencies As a result of intense lobbying by CASA and the Association of California Water Agencies (ACWA), the Legislature rejected a proposal by the Legislative Analyst's Office (LAO) that the state borrow more than a quarter of the total property tax loan amount from wastewater and water enterprise special districts, commensurate with legislative intent that enterprise special districts be removed from the property tax roll entirely. Had state lawmakers adopted the LAO's recommendation, the state would have borrowed virtually all of waste and wastewater property taxes, estimated at $500 million in total. Federal Stimulus Funds and SB 27 (XXX) Background: SB 27 (X)OC), by Senator Gloria Negrete McLeod, would provide funding for "shovel-ready" projects for both the California Clean Water State Revolving Fund (CWSRF), as well as the State Drinking Water Revolving Fund. The CWSRF will receive approximately $280 million from the new Federal funds. The funds will provide grants or revolving fund loans for the design and construction of projects for public wastewater systems. SB 27 ()OOQ would allow the State Department of Public Health to speed up the receipt and expenditure of federal dollars in the fund that are received from the federal stimulus package known as the "American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA)." Potential Impact: Before the vote on SB 27 (XXX), concerns were expressed by CASA that large wastewater agencies serving urban areas would be frozen out of any grant funds because they did not meet the definition of a "disadvantaged community," even though certain areas served by the larger agencies clearly are disadvantaged. In the end, the State Water Resources Control Board (SWRCB) was left with the final authority over disbursement of the ARRA/SRF funds. CASA Position: Support Result: SB 27 (XXX) passed unanimously, the Governor signed the bill into law and formally began the process of requesting the federal funds. CASA victory. Water Softener Regulations Background: AB 1366, authored by Assemblymembers Feuer, Caballero and Strickland, is a more narrow version of AB 2270 (Laird), which was vetoed by the Governor in 2008. It would allow California wastewater agencies, in areas with significant salinity problems, to regulate water softeners. These areas include the south and central coasts, San Joaquin Valley, Tulare Lake and the lower half of the Sacramento Valley Department of Water Resources Hydrologic Region. Among other things, AB 1366 would: • Allow agencies in these areas to bypass the cumbersome existing law and pass ordinances that can limit the salt contribution from self- generation water softeners. This authority would be provided only if a regional board within these areas finds that the limitation on softeners would contribute to achieving its water quality objectives. • Requires local agencies to provide reasonable compensation if they decide to remove existing water softeners. CASA Position: Strongly support. Result: Governor signed. CASA Victory. 55 Percent Vote for Public Improvements Background: Assembly Constitutional Amendment (ACA 9) by Assemblymember Jared Huffman would allow for the use of bonded indebtedness for the construction, reconstruction, rehabilitation or replacement of public improvements, including "sewer systems, water systems and wastewater systems" upon approval by 55 percent of the voters of a particular city, county or special district. Potential Impact: Currently, schools are the only entity eligible to secure bond funding for construction projects with a 55 percent vote and they were able to lower the vote threshold from two-thirds to 55 percent only by gaining passage through the initiative process. It is extremely difficult to win passage of a bill in the legislature for construction bond funding with the current constitutional requirement of atwo-thirds vote threshold for passage. CASA Position: Support Result: ACA 9 passed two Assembly policy committees and reached the Assembly floor. While actively supported by the entire local government community, final approval Is doubtful because Republicans will refuse to provide the votes necessary for the two- thirds vote requirement to make the proposed constitutional change. The bill is currently on the Assembly floor and can be taken up in the 2010 Session. Binding Arbitration for Claim Disputes Background: AB 216 (Beall, D-San Jose) would authorize that contracts entered into after January 1, 2010 provide for a mediation process and binding arbitration process for claim disputes of more than $100,000 between a contractor and a local agency. This would be required under the following conditions: • If the agency does not have an alternative dispute process • If the claims remain unresolved after a certain period of time AB 216 also would define "claim" to mean a written demand or assertion by a contractor or local agency in regards to the contract documents. CASA Position: Oppose. AB 216 likely would result in agencies incurring potentially high legal costs from arbitration and limiting appeals in such cases. Result: Bill held in Assembly Appropriations Committee. "Complete and Accurate Plans" -Bill Held Over to 2010 Background: AB 815 by Assembly member Fiona Ma is a slightly revised version of AB 983, which was vetoed by Governor 5chwarzenegger after passing both houses of the Legislature in 2008. It would require local agencies to provide "full complete and accurate plans and specifications on contracts." The Governor rejected the measure last year because of worries it would interfere with a court case, Los Angeles Unified School District v Great American Insurance Company. AB 815 is currently a "placeholder bill," that is expected to be amended by the author and sponsors once the court case has been settled in 2010. Potential Impact: If AB 815 is eventually amended to a version similar to AB 982 (Ma) of 2008: it will have significant adverse impacts on local government, and will likely lead to additional taxpayer costs. CASA position: Oppose. co Result: Pending a hearing in the Senate Local Government Committee, AB 815 likely will not be heard until late Spring 201n STATE LEGISLATION CONT 5 Percent Withhold on Contracts Background: SB 802 (Leno, D-San Francisco) would lower the retention percentage public entities can withhold from general contractors from 10 percent to 5 percent. Public entities currently are allowed to withhold at least 5 percent and up to 10 percent from payments to the general contractor, pending satisfactory completion of the project. The provisions of the bill also apply to state contracts. CASA Position: Oppose. Payment retention is an effective method of keeping contractors on the job until a project is complete. The bill takes away local control and puts CASA member agencies' finances at risk at a time when local government and special districts can least afford it. The Governor vetoed the bill, stating in part, "When a contractor fails to complete a public works project, the public entity needs recourse to ensure that the project gets completed. Public works contracts have a higher level of nsk as public entities usually have to accept the tow bidder. Though there are options available to the State fo go alter a contractor who fails to complete the terms of a public works contract, retaining portions of payment to the contractor provides incentive for the contractor to complete the project. " Result: Governor vetoed CASA Yctory. 50 Percent Recycling Requirement on Ocean Discharges Background: SB 565 (Pavley, D-Santa Monica) would require the State Water Resources Control Board to develop a plan to recycle 50 percent of the wastewater currently discharged to the ocean by 2030 and to establish an annual fee on those discharges for reimbursement of the board's costs for the statewide plan. Potential Impact: CASA expressed serious concerns about giving the State Water Board the direct authority to prepare and implement plans by using its regulatory authority and require bay and ocean discharges to pay for the plans through regulatory fees. Wastewater dischargers already pay a fee for ocean discharging and SB 565 sets up complex regulatory hurdles and restrictions rather than working to remove barriers to recycling equitably throughout the state. CASA Position: Oppose, unless amended. CASH actively worked with WateReuse, ACWA and the Metropolitan Water District in addition to Senator Pavley's staff and the bill's sponsors, (the Planning and Conservation League), on amendments to remove the objectionable portions. The proposed amendments to the bill focus on developing the science and technical information required to support additional reuse opportunities through groundwater recharge and potable reuse, which CASA believes is critical to achieving the state's ambitious water recycling goals. CASA Impresses with First "Day in the District" CASA members produced an impressive showing at the association's first annual Legislative Day in the District on February 13, 2009. The event provided CASA members the opportunity to introduce themselves to newly elected and incumbent legislators in their district offices, away from the hectic pace of the State Capitol. CASA members met face to face with their legislative representatives and educated them about their agencies' accomplishments and priority issues for the upcoming 2009-2010 legislative session. In addition, individual agencies used the opportunity to invite their legislators to tour their local project sites. CASA makes it easy for members to participate by providing them with pertinent issue papers and other "leave-behind" materials for lawmakers and their staffs to review and refer to as related issues surface in the Capitol. The local networking component of this grassroots advocacy effort is very important to CASA's public affairs outreach as relationships forged during these meetings often could mean the difference between passage and defeat of CASA- sponsored bills. Result: CASA continues to work with Senator I'arvley's staff and the sponsors on the amendments Ih,~t could ultimately result in CASA's support of the nx~asure. SB 565 is carried over to January 2010 as a Iwo-year bill. California Association of Sanitation Agencies ~ ~ ~~Q~~AL ~~~G~~~~TION DRAMATIC CHANGES THE FEDERAL LEVEL AND WHAT IT MEANS FOR CASA "My presidency will mark a new chapter in America's leadership on climate change that will strengthen our security and create millions of new jobs in the process. " President Barack Obama • $850 billion in federal stimulus offered to get the economy back on track • President and Congress vow to develop a sustainable recovery targeting public infrastructure • Wastewater and water projects are the focus with more than $6 billion appropriated to support water projects • Climate change is the centerpiece of Obama administration's environment agenda ~.-~~. 1"TTT*T'R CASA Visits and Voices Its Opinions on the Hill Nearly 50 CASA members traveled to the nation's capitol for what proved to be an invaluable and rewarding experience in educating federal lawmakers about CASA's priorities. The annual Washington D.C. conference allowed attendees to meet. greet and strengthen relationships with members of the California delegation, many of whom are in positions of power to affect CASA legislation. Senator Barbara Boxer, who chairs the Committee on Environment and Public Works, addressed CASA members at a town hall meeting. She provided updates on Congress' key priorities and their potential impact on CASA in the short and long term. Sessions at the conference included discussions about future initiatives from the new administration, prospects for passage of comprehensive climate change legislation and how the nation will address the increasing needs of our aging infrastructures. Special thanks to CASH Federal Legislative Chair Sharon Green, Vice Chair Ann Farrell and Federal Legislative Advocate Eric Sapirstein for a job well done. Their hard work and dedication in the coordination of this event are to be commended. CASA Proposes Its Own Federal Stimulus Ideas In asking the question: "What would you do to get the economy moving again?" CASA's Sacramento office surveyed member agencies to find out what they would bang to the table to get the economy moving again. The polling produced a list of more than $4 billion in ready-to- go construction wastewater and water reuse projects that could benefit from a federal infrastructure assistance program. The list was submitted to the House and Senate infrastructure congressional leadership and House Speaker Nancy Pelosi. In addition, CASA joined with several national and state organizations in urging Congress to: • Provide $20 billion in infrastructure assistance that would jump start the economy by creating 170,000 jobs. • Focus first on ready-to-start construction projects as opposed to those on the list of the State Revolving Fund (SRS. • Offer grant assistance, rather than loans, to ensure that stimulus-funded projects do not impose additional burdens on ratepayers. More Issues, Confusion over Clean Water Act and Its Implications Background: the 1972 Clean Water Act (CWA) was enacted to protect the waters and wetlands of the United States, ranging from small streams and wetlands to large lakes and waterways. tt sets the basic organization for regulating water pollution nationwide, including the discharge of pollutants from large industrial plants and sewage treatment facilities. Under CWA, the reloase of all such pollutants requires a federal permit and the pollutants released must meet federally mandated sewage treatment standards. The CWA authorizes the federal government to fund sewage treatment facilities and programs to reduce water pollution, which the individual states develop and maintain. Court challenges: Two closely decided U.S. Supreme Court cases in 2001 and 2066 narrowed [he scope of CWA jurisdiction, stating the CWA applies only to wetlands or water bodies that have some hydrological connection to a navigable-in-fact waterway. The decisions have led to significant confusion and permitting delays because of uncertainty over which waters remain protected. Clean Water Restoration Act of 2009: Sei ~aior Russell Feingold D ~ti~q mtmduced legislation (S. 787) awned at clarifying the scope of the CWA, by codifying existing CWA jurisdiction regulations and expressing the intent of Congress to broadly interpret such jurisdiction. Rep. James Oberstar (D-MN) is drafting similar legislation and has solicited CASA's views on his proposal. CASA Position: Supports modifications. Pros: The bills state unequivocally that it does not affect the EPA regulatory exemption provided to design and construct man-made waste treatment systems. It also specifically states that nothing in the legislation would modify or affect the exemption. Cons: The bills neglect to address a significant issue impacting public owned treatment works (POTWs). And like the original act, it would again limit the waste treatment exemption to manmade bodies of water even though that limited exemption was suspended by the EPA in 1980. The bills restate that the CWA treats groundwater separate from "waters of the United States." This serves to signal regulators that the bill is not intended to expand the current treatment of groundwater. However, the bills do not address instances where groundwater has a hydrological connection to surface water, a scenario courts across the nation are split. Result: After failing to garner the votes necessary to move the bills to the Senate and House floors for debate and votes, attention has shifted back to ways in which to craft an acceptable compromise to ensure that the waste treatment exemption is maintained. When all is said and done, it's likely the bill will require new facilities to use waste treatmment systems outside waters of the United States and allow POTWs who benefited from the exemption to continue operating without a discharge permit. Water Trust Fund Bill: Fees and Taxes Background: H.R. 3202 by Rep. Earl Blumenauer would establish a Water Protection and Reinvestment Fund to support investments in clean water and drinking water infrastructure. In July 2009, the House Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure, Subcommittee on Water Resources invited various stakeholders to testify on whether a Clean Water Trust Fund would be beneficial. The meeting was called on the heels of a newly released Government Accounting Office (GAO) study. The report identified potential revenue sources for such a fund while raising issues regarding who would administer the fund, what activities would be eligible and the kinds of financial assistance that would be offered. State and local governments and contractors, engineers and environmentalists were generally supportive of a dedicated protected revenue stream from a trust fund that waste and wastewater agencies could draw upon. Some touted the idea of using adeficit-neutral revenue source to meet growing infrastructure needs. The lone dissenter was the American Water Works Association, which argued that infrastructure needs should be dealt with through rates and other local charges, rather than relying on federal assistance. H.R. 3202 would devote 48 percent of the trust fund revenue to the Clean Water State Revolving Fund and 35 percent to the Drinking Water State Revolving Fund. The bill also calls for grants for non-point sources, technical assistance for rural and small communities, security, sewer overflow controls and drug take-back programs. CASA Position: CASA has continued to work with other stakeholders to ensure that should any bill move forward, CASA will be in a position work with key members of the California delegation to remedy deficiencies identified in any legislation. Result: As the First Session of the 1 1 1'^ Congress closed, the legislation has failed to gain significant support because of the continuing challenge of identifying where revenues might be generated to create a sustainable trust fund. con6iiuad on page 74 Passage of Sweeping Climate Change Measure Proves Troublesome in U.S. Senate; CASA Testifies Before Senate Background: A bill California Senator Barbara Boxer hopes to merge with provisions from five other committees cleared her Senate Environment and Public Works Committee despite a Republican boycott. The measure (S. 1733) introduced in late September 2009 by Senators Boxer and John Kerry (D-MA) calls fora 20 percent cut in greenhouse gas emissions by 2020. Earlier this year, the House cleared a companion measure (H.R. 2454, Waxman-Markey) and was able to win support for reductions of only 17 percent by 2020. CASA President Ronald Young testified before the Senate Committee on Environment and Public Works in support of the bill's commitment to provide grants to POTWs to respond to climate change impacts upon wastewater treatment operations. In his testimony, President Young urged the Senate to explicitly define biomass energy production to included biogas and biosolids. The complex Waxman-Markey climate change bill would reset the way the U.S. government approaches the issue of regulating air pollution, and specifically: • Mandate a 17 percent cut in greenhouse gas emissions by 2050, reductions that would be accomplished by putting a price on carbon dioxide through a cap and trade system. • Require 20 percent of electricity to come from renewable sources and increased energy efficiency by 2020. • Provide between $600 million and $740 million for domestic adaptation in 2015. States may use the proceeds of sales of emission allowances for the implementation of projects to build resilience to the impacts of climate change. These impacts would include extreme weather events, water scarcity, adverse impacts on water quality, more frequent and severe droughts and rises in sea level. • Authorize $7.5 million for FY 2010 (rising to $50 million by FY 2010) for EPA's WaterSense program, a voluntary program that labels water-efficient high-performance products and services. The bill also directs federal agencies to make cost-effective, water-efficient procurement decisions by purchasing WaterSense products whenever possible. The Boxer-Kerry bill would: Cut greenhouse gas emissions by 83 percent by 2050 and 20 percent over the next decade from 2005 levels. Create a dedicated funding mechanism to support infrastructure needs of POTWs impacted by climate change including sea level rise and drought. Set up a market for pollution permits and auctions off 15 percent of the allowances each year through 2029 before increasing to 18.5 percent after 2029. The auction revenue would be distributed to different areas, including 6.6 percent beginning in 2026 for direct rebates to consumers to help them deal with higher energy bills. The EPA estimates it would cost the average U.S. household about $100 per year. Republicans are demanding a more thorough economic analysis of the Kerry bill, saying it will raise energy prices and cause job losses. The lone Democrat, Senator Max Baucus (D-MTj, who voted against the measure, expressed concern about the market set-up for pollution permits. In an attempt to find a middle ground, Kerry joined with Senate colleagues Lindsey Graham and Joe Lieberman to develop a compromise package that would give more benefits to the oil and nuclear power industries. The trio stressed their "dual track" climate legislation would not usurp Boxer's efforts or the work of the five other committees that have jurisdiction over energy and climate policy. The Senate Energy panel already has cleared a bill that would require more electricity to come from renewable sources and would extend offshore oil drilling into parts of the eastern gulf of Mexico that are now off limits. CASA position: CASA along with other water and wastewater associations wrote in support of the Kerry-Boxer legislation due to its incorporation of adaptation assistance for POTW infrastructure needs. Status: Action on any climate bill will not occur until next year at the earliest. With 192 nations gathering in Copenhagen in Decen fiber 2009 to hammer out a new international treaty to slow global warming, the Obama administration and Democrats plan to use House and Senate action on legislation as well as the Administration's decision to require federal agencies to begin the process of reducing greenhouse gas emissions as proof the U.S. is moving forward on the issue. enate Debating State evolving Fund (SRF) enewal Background: The Water Infrastructure Financing Act (S.1005) authored by Committee on Environment and Public Works Chair Barbara Boxer would amend the Federal Water Pollution Control Act (commonly known as the Clean Water Act) and the Safe Drinking Water Act to improve water and water infrastructure in the U.S. S.1005 would provide a sizeable federal contribution to the SRF program of $20 billion over a period of five years. In addition, it would provide: • A new allocation formula under which the $20 billion is.provided to state SRF programs. • Grants assistance of $1.8 billion over five years to support Combined Sewer Overflow/Sanitary Sewer Overflow needs. • Subsidized SRF assistance in the form of extended repayment terms of 30 years, principle forgiveness and negative interest to communities that fall within the definition of disadvantaged. This assistance is limited to 30 percent of a state's SRF grant. • Provides for an expanded set of eligible activities that a SRF program can support related to improved water recycling, energy efficiency, expense monitoring and security upgrades at plants. CASA Position: Support Impact: For the first time in more than two decades, the bill's revised allocation formula would provide a more equitable share of infrastructure SRF assistance to California. If the bill is enacted, California would receive nearly 8 percent of all SRF funding or $1.7 billion over the next five years. House Attacks Pharmaceutical Pollutants Background: Three bills are under consideration in the House that address the issue of pharmaceuticals entering into the U.S. waters. The bills seek to direct programs to prevent end-users from disposing unused medications down toilets or drains. • H.R. 1191, the Safe Disposal Act, would amend the Controlled Substances Act to provide for disposal of controlled substances through State take-back disposal programs and to amend the Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act to prohibit recommendations on drug labels for disposal through the use of wastewater treatment systems, such as flushing down the toilet. CASA Position: Support. H.R. 1191 carries value to create incentives for state and local programs. • H.R. 1359, the Secure and Responsible Drug Act would provide for dist,osal through drug take-back programs to prevent improper disposal i toward greater coordination among federal, state and local agencies on how drugs and personal care products are disposed by consumers. Impact: The bill's author, Subcommittee on Oversight and Investigations Chair Bart Stupak, stated the importance of stemming the flow of pharmaceuticals entering the nation's waters, citing reports of anti- epileptic and anti-anxiety medication found in treated drinking water for 18.5 million people in Southern California. • H.R. 3202. the Water Protection and Reinvestment Act, addresses improper pliarrnaceutical disposal. It would include a program to make grants to states, nonprofits and other governmental entities to implement drug take-back programs. The bill also would place labeling restrictions on drugs and biological products to prevent flushing. CASA Position: CASA supports the take- back provision of H.R. 3202. Status: Still under consideration. It appears that the priority for health care CASA Position: CASA has joined with Status: All three bills are under review in reform will preclude consideration of the other stakeholders to support this and other I-louse subcommittees. bill until early next year. initiatives that would mark the first step I Coastal Water Contamination and the BEACH Act Background: H.R. 2093, the Beaches Environmental Assessment and Coastal Health Act SEACH) Act would reauthorize grants to a +~~_ and local governments from $30 million ,r~r,ually to $40 million annually in Fiscal Years rU t u through 2014 for beach-monitoring programs to locate and identify likely sources of coastal water contamination. Under the measure, recipients of BEACH Act grants for monitoring and notification would need to include public notification, source tracking, sanitary surveys and prevention efforts to address identified sources of contamination by pathogens in coastal recreation waters adjacent to beaches or other areas used by the public. H.R. 2093 also requires beach-monitoring state and local grant programs to use a rapid testing method for water within one year following the date of validation of arapid-testing method by the EPA. By 2012, EPA is required to complete an evaluation and validation of arapid-testing method for water quality criteria and standards for pathogens and pathogen indicators. CASA Position: Watch closely Reasoning: CASA worked closely with staff on the Committee on Transportation and Infrsstnich~re to settle on a workable definition of "rapid testing methods." The adopted language states that rapid testing method results must be "available as soon as practical and not more than 6 hours after the start of the rapid testing method in the laboratory." Status: Senate Bill, S.878, contains most of the programmatic changes contained in H R. 2093. It was approved by the Senate Committee on Environment and Public Works and sent to the Senate. However, it contains afour-hour timetable for rapid testing methods, which CASA contends is unreasonable and impractical. The overarching H.R. 2093 requires atwo-thirds vote for passage. Sewer Overflow Monitoring and Notification Bills Background: Bills advanced by both the House and Senate would establish a national sewer overflow monitoring, reportiny and notification program administered by the EPA. The program would require publicly owned treatment works (POTWs) to institute a feasible monitoring program, notify the public as quickly as possible when there is an overflow and notify public authorities immediately when an overflow threatens to endanger human health. House Version: H.R. 753 was included in the Water Quality Investment Act (H.R. 1262), which passed the House. The committee report accompanying H.R. 1262 addressed a concern raised by CASA regarding the liability of POTW owners and operators for monitoring and reporting sewer overflows occurring in Satellite systems. The report indicates that POTWs are not required to assume monitoring, notifcation and reporting responsibility for satellite collection systems that may be connected, but not owned or operated, to a POTW. Senate Version: S. 937, the Sewage Overflow Community Right to Know Act was approved by the Committee on Environment and Public Works and sent to the full Senate for consideration. Casa Position: Support Status: The bill has yet to be scheduled for Senate floor debate and a vote due to the priority for health care reform. Action is likely next year as part of the Senate debate on S. 1005. House Acts on Chemical Security Bills to Guard against Terrorist Attacks Background: The House Energy and Commerce Committee approved two pieces of legislation that would place new security requirements on facilities across the country that use or store dangerous chemicals. According to the Department of Homeland Security (DHS). U.S. chemical plants and water facilities remain vulnerable to terrorist attacks. The Department has identified more than 7,000 high-risk chemical facilities. The current program, which was extended for one additional year under the Homeland Security appropriations bill, does not cover drinking water and wastewater facilities. The Chemical Facility Anti-Terrorism Act of 2009 (H.R. 2668) requires covered facilities to assess whether there are alternative chen,lcals or processes they could use that would reduce the consequences of a terrorist attack. As amended, the bill creates an explicit mandate that USEPA would retain authority over POTWs and water supply agencies, preventing the Department of Homeland Security from assuming control. CASA Position: CASA has endorsed the legislation because of concessions made that leave regulatory control over POTWS with USEPA and the states. Additionally because 1ltcre is not a mandatory IST provision (requiring a POTW to select alternative treatment technologies), CASA joined with other stakeholders providing qualified support that will allow it to work with the Senate on language to ensure POTWs are required to switch to other technologies without a demonstrated need for such transition. Status: The House of Representatives approved the bill and it is now pending before the Senate. No action is expected in the Senate until late next year. California Association of Sanitation Agencies REGULATORY REPORT CASA Actively Engaged in Process to Revise Water Quality Enforcement Policy Background: The Water Quality Enforcement Policy iWOEP) governs how the State a~u1 Regional Water Boards ' prioritize and enforce violations of permits and water quality laws. After nearly two years of workshops, stakeholder input, and multiple drafts, the State Water Resources Control Board (State Water Board) adopted a revised Water Quality Enforcement Policy (WOEP) in October 2009. The WOEP governs the manner in which the State and Regional Water Boards prioritize and pursue enforcement of violations of permits and water quality laws. CASA, Tri-TAC and the Clean Water Summit Partners were active participants in the WOEP update The revised WOEP differs from the prior policy in several ways. For example, the WOEP establishes a system of classifying violations based on the impact to the environment and [he conduct of the discharger. One of the criticisms of the prior WOEP is that the policy identified so many activities as priorities that it was difficult to determine which of these violations was truly deserving of a high priority status. CASA supported the approach in the revised WOEP because the policy will target enforcement resources toward those violations that pose a serious threat to water quality or are the result of willful or knowing noncompliance. A second major change is that the revised WOEP provides a much more detailed and systematic "10 step" approach to calculating monetary penalties. The State Water Board considered two alternative approaches; the other proposal involved convening of a "Monetary Liability Recommendation Panel" of five senior management staff from the Water Boards that would be responsible for developing <~ proposed monetary civil liability assessment for each case. CASA supported the proposrKf approach over the panel option, because it provides all parties with greater transparency : r to how penalties are calculated. One major reason CASA did not support the panel alternative was that it would create a "rebuttable presumption" that the panel's recommended penalty amount is appropriate by requiring Regional Water Board staff to justify any deviations from the panel's recommendation. However, apparently in response to concerns expressed by some of the Regional Water Boards that the detailed methodology would lead to "second guessing" of their calculations, the proposed WOEP now provides that in reviewing a petition challenging the use of this methodology by a Regional Water Board, the State Water Board will generally defer to the decisions made by the Regional Water Boards in calculating the liability amount unless "it is demonstrated that the Regional Water Board made a clear factual mistake or error of law, or that it abused its discretion." This language creates a similar presumption of correctness regarding Regional Water Board penalty calculations. CASA position: Many of the changes requested by CASA, Tri-TAC and the Clean Water Summit Partners are reflected in the WOEP as adopted. These include: • Instead of the typical approach for calculating monetary penalties, the starting point for NPDES permit effluent limit violations is the mandatory minimum penalty (MMP) required by statute. The Regional Water Board is to consider the nature and circumstances of the violation (e.g. the environmental impact, if any) and the conduct of the discharger (e.g. whether the violation was willful or negligent) in deciding whether to pursue discretionary liability above the mandatory amount. • In recognition of the lower threat posed by releases of recycled water, the WOEP establishes a maximum amount of $1 per gallon should be used to calculate liability, rather than the statutory maximum of $10 per gallon. In addition, in recognition of the large volumes that may be discharged, the maximum per gallon factor to be used in calculating liability for sewage spills and releases of municipal stormwater or stormwater from construction sites is $2 per gallon. • Revision of a number of problematic provisions, including language that would have required "any assessment of administrative liability' for noncompliance to "meaningfully exceed the cost oT compliance." CASA pointed out that if a publicly owned treatment works intermittently violates an effluent limitation for salinity, compliance with that objective could require construction of reverse osmosis treatment, at a cost of millions of dollars. It would not be good public policy to suggest that the appropriate liability for those effluent violations would be in the millions of dollars. Status: The revised WQEP is now in effect. CASA was able to resolve all of its significant issues through written comments, testimony and meetings with State Water Board members and staff. continued on page 20 CASA Joins Other Water, Environmental Stakeholders in Support of Recycled Water Policy Background: The State Water Board undertook amulti-year effort to establish a policy to increase the use of recycled water in California. The State Water Board made two attempts between the fall of 2007 and the spring of 2008 to establish a policy that addresses the concerns of the water recycling community, as well as environmental associations and the Department of Public Health. In March 2008, the State Water Board agreed to allow a small group of stakeholders from the water, wastewater and environmental communities 120 days to develop a policy to replace the State Water Board staff proposals. In September 2008, the stakeholders presented a proposed consensus draft of the policy to the State Water Board. Two months later, the State Water Board issued a draft that tracks, for the most part, the stakeholder draft CASA position: CASA, along with the Association of Galrfornia Water Agencies and the WateReuse Association, submitted joint comments on the proposed policy on December 19, 2008. The associations expressed their appreciation for the State Water Board's recognition that recycled water is a key component of California's present and future water supply, and that Board policies and programs should facilitate, rather than impede, the safe and beneficial use of recycled water for irrigation and groundwater recharge, among other uses. The associations also noted with approval that the proposed policy retains the central themes of the stakeholder draft, including the need to streamline and simplify permitting in order to increase recycled water use throughout the state. The policy also recognizes the importance of basin-wide planning [o maintain sustainable groundwater supplies and calls for development of stakeholder led salt/nutrient management plans, without unfairly burdening recycling programs in the interim. While the stakeholder group was able to reach consensus on a number of challenging issues, including the application of the antidegradation policy to recycled water projects and the approach to addressing constituents of emerging concern in recycled water, the group was unable to resolve its differences on the question of how incidental amounts of recycled water runoff should be addressed in the policy. The State Water Board directed its staff to develop proposed language on incidental runoff and include these provisions in the staff draft of the policy. The associations recommended that, because of the prominence given to the issue of incidental runoff in the proposed policy, the State Water Board should make clear that incidental amounts of runoff of highly treated recycled water do not pose a threat to water quality. The associations expressed agreement that multiple perrnd mechanisms, including waste discharge requirements and municipal separate storm sewer system (MS4) permits, may be employed as appropriate to address minor amounts of recycled water runoff that may occur as a result of normal irrigation operations. However, the letter expressed concern that the new language regarding incidental runoff is overly detailed and prescriptive for a policy, and conditions regarding practices that are appropriate for a particular site should be left to the permitting process. Status: The Recycled Water Policy was adopted on February 4, 2009, and approved by the Office of Administrative Law in April 2009. The policy included provisions regarding incidental runoff that, while not ideal from CASA's perspective, represented a reasonable compromise between the environmental and water community oositions. KY t{tF'Ufi I ~ :neral Permit Adopted for Landscape ~igation with Recycled Water Background: AB 1481 by Assemblyman Hector De La Torre required the State Water Board to adopt a general permit for landscape irrigation uses that have been approved by the California Department of Public Health by July 2009. The bill, sponsored by the City of Los Angeles, was mined at streamlining irrigation permitting and addressing the inconsistent approaches of the nine regional water boards. In response to the legislation, the State Water Board developed a general permit for landscape uses of tertiary-treated recycled water. Positive aspects of the general permit include: • Agencies have the choice to opt-in to the general permit, or to continue coverage under existing matter reclamation permits and individual recycling requirements • Some aspects of the general permit are less restrictive than those in the existing permits • The general permit requires priority pollutant monitoring twice annually • The general permit does not require groundwater monitoring • The general permit allows recycled water producers and distributors to manage and police their individual uses However, several provisions have caused concern for CASA members, including: • The general permit requires prior approval for the appropriate public health agency before connecting new sites • The reporting, monitoring and paperwork requirements are more onerous, and the tone of the general permit suggests that recycled water is a waste to be regulated rather than a valuable water supply • The permit requires reporting of recycled water spills of more than 1,000 gallons.. while the California Water Code only requires reporting of spills in excess of 50,000 gallons CASA position: CASA joined with the Association of California Water Agencies (ACWA) and WateReuse California in working with State Water Board staff and key stakeholders to develop permit language and address key issues of concern. As a result, the Board agreed to numerous revisions regarding the prohibitions, findings as well as the monitoring and reporting program. Status: The general permit is in effect and available for entities seeking coverage for recycled water irrigation projects. CASA Persuades State Water Board to Mitigate the Impact of NPDES Permit Fee Increases _. Background: In the summer of 2009, the State Water Board indicated to stakeholders that the Board was considering revising the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permit fee schedule to replace the existing flow-based approach to calculating annual fees. Staff developed several alternative fee options to address the perceived inequity of the flow- based approach. By looking at other "revenue neutral fee structures," the staff proposed to provide relief to the steam electric power plants (SEPPs) that currently pay significant annual permitting fees, because fees were based solely on the volume of water discharged and did not include a cap on the total amount paid by any single discharger. CASA Position: CASA offered two alternative approaches for the fiscal year 2009-10 fees. The first option was identified in testimony at the Board's workshop and hearing, which was to retain the existing fee schedule (Option 1), but utilize the one-time furlough savings attributable to the NPDES permit program to reduce the fees being paid by the largest dischargers. The second option attempted to capture a concept raised during the Board discussion at the hearing, which would take the staff's recommendation to impose a $250,000 cap on each discharge as the starting point, but use the savings to reduce the fees proportionally (Option 2). The State Water Board staff estimates the non-general NPDES program share of the furlough savings at approximately $1.9 million. Impact: The Board adopted the second option suggested by CASA and applied the $1.9 million in savings to provide a reduction in fees to all fee payers with annual fee amounts under the $250,000 cap. In this alternative, the fee for the 22 dischargers with the highest flows (240 MGD to 2.670 MGD) was capped at $250,000. The 104 dischargers between 7.5 MGD and 181 MGD will all experience at least a doubling of fees. Even the 325 agencies with flows exceeding up to 7.5 MGD will experience some increase, while only the 44 dischargers with flows at or less than 250 GPD will remain constant. Even so, no discharger will pay more under this option than under the staff- recommended Option 2. Status: The fee schedule will remain in effect for FY 2009-10. CASA was able to mitigate, though not avoid, the fee increases for its members. CASA also persuaded the State Water Board to form a fee stakeholder group to look into more equitable and sustainable fee structures that can be implemented in future years. The stakeholder group is expected to meet for the first time in December 2009. CASA, Summit Partners Weigh in on Collection System WDR Review Background: In the summer of ~r io~3. the State Water Resources Control Buard solicited comments w~tl~ regard to possible revisions to the Waste Discharge Requirements (WDR) Order 200fi-003 related to Sanitary Sewer Overflows (SSOs). The State Water Board staff held two public workshops and accepted written comments on a series of specific questions designed to elicit information about how the WDR is being implemented and what changes are desired by stakeholders. CASA position: CASA, the Clean W~rfer Summit Partners and several other local government associations jointly submitted comments to the State Water Board. The comment letter stated the view that implementation of the SSO WDR should be allowed to reach completion of its initial stated goals for enrollment and reporting by all public agencies before major changes are made. The full SSO WDR program has been in effect for only two years, and the requirement for some agencies to complete their Sewer System Management Plans (SSMPs) does not occur until the summer of 2010. Many enrollees are still in the initial stages of the implementation period for this SSO WDR. The letter noted that the results of the first two full years of WDR implementation are impressive. The State Water Board and collection system agencies deserve to take pride in these accomplishments. The associations argued the State Water Board could most positively focus its resources on achieving compliance with the existing program, which has not yet been completely implemented. The lack of reporting by the noncompliant agencies is unfair to the agencies that are reporting, and the map of spills shown on the Water Board's Web site is misleading to any viewer because of the agencies that are not yet included in the program, or are not reporting appropriately. During the last two to three years, collection system agencies have been developing their SSMPs, increasing funding by their public rate-payers for their collection system activities in a process that usually takes a year or more, and participating in training in order to make improvements in their operational capabilities and reach compliance with the WDR. For all of these reasons, the local government associations suggested the WDR be left unchanged for the present. Instead, additional efforts by the State Water Board to analyze program data would be useful and appropriate. This effort should seek to ensure the accuracy of reported information, completeness of information, and to identify if there are performance concerns that need to be strategically addressed, either as a whole or by individual permittees. This type of review could also ensure that future attention is focused on the most important issues when considering protection of public health. This focus is critical to permittees as it will help to concentrate their efforts on the highest priority issues during this time of limited resources. Status: The State Water Board intends ir, hold additional public workshops in early 2010. Proposed revisions to the SSO WDR, if any, are anticipated to be released for comment no earlier than spring 2010. ,lifornia Association of Sanitation Agencies ASA C~ A I A ~~~ 1~l~,' ~~[a -_ ,_- , ~ ~ ~ ~~ - -~ - 0RT Trial Court Issues Final Decision in Vacaville Case; CASA Set to Appeal As the fiscal year drew to a close, CASA was preparing to seek review in the California Court of Appeal of a trial court decision regarding the State Water Board's final order on the City of Vacaville permit. On April 7, 2009. Contra Costa County Superior Court Judge David Flinn ruled on the key causes of action in the case, which contests the legality of regulatory provisions including the Tributary "Rule" and the State Sources of Drinkiny Water Policy. In a relatively brief decision, the court effectively upheld the 2002 State Water Board precedential order regarding the NPDES permit for the City of Vacaville's Easterly Wastewater Treatment Plant. The State Water Board order in turn largely affirmed the 2001 permit issued by the Central Valley Regional Water Board. The State Water Board designated its decision as "precedential," meaning this decision sets precedent for other, similar permitting decisions by Regional Boards throughout California. CASA attorneys planned to file the notice of appeal before the end of the calendar year. Funding for the appeal was provided through voluntary contributions from CASA members. The issues that will be the focus of the appeal are those most critical to CASA members. One of the key issues in the case involves the application (or misapplication) of the so-called "Tributary Statement." CASA and Vacaville argued that the Tributary Statement does not actually "designate" beneficial uses, but rather requires the Regional Water Board to conduct an analysis of beneficial uses of tributary streams at the time it proposes to apply water quality objectives to those streams. The Court's decision essentially concludes that, as long as the Reyional Water Board has a process that allows the Basin Plan to be amended to remove unsupported beneficial uses, it passes muster with the courts. Similarly, CASH and Vacaville argued that establishing effluent limits based on a "drinking water" beneficial use derived from Resolution 88-63, the Sources of Drinking Water Policy, is unlawful. Resolution 88-63 has been held to be an unlawful regulation by the Office of Administrative Law (OAL) and, therefore, cannot be a proper basis for designating beneficial uses. In addition, Resolution 88-63 by its own terms does not apply to waters such as agricultural drains such as the one to which Vacaville discharges. The court concluded that any improper designation of beneficial uses can be cured by amending the Basin Plan, placing the burden on dischargers to establish that the receiving water is not a "source of drinking water." With regard to the third key issue, the relevant Basin Plan contains water quality objectives that are based on maximum contaminant levels (MCLs), which are adopted by the California Department of Public Health (CDPH). The Basin Plan also contains "non-detect" water quality objectives for certain pesticides, and the Basin Plan delegates the authority to the Executive Officer and to EPA to approve laboratory techniques. CASA and Vacaville contended that incorporating standards adopted by other agencies is an improper delegation of the exclusive authority to adopt water quality objectives. Because these other agencies are not required to consider the Water Code's mandate of reasonableness or the factors set forth in Water Code section 13241, allowing these other agencies to essentially adopt water quality objectives for the Regional Board bypasses the legal requirements for adopting water quality objectives. For example, MCLs are adopted by CDPH to be applied at the tap, after treatment. EPA's lab analysis standards are adopted without consideration of their impact on the attainability of effluent limits. The Court found that deference to CDPH's expertise was appropriate, and that the prospective incorporation does not constitute delegation, and that applying a moving detection level as a water quality objective was simply a source of scientific information. CASA Urges Ninth Circuit to Review Panel Decision Dismissing Constitutional Challenge to Kern County Biosolids Ordinance ~ In the tall of 2009, CASA and its fellow plaintiffs, including the City n1 Los Angeles, filed a request with the United S(,il~i C;nurt of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit to reconsider the decision issued by a three judge panel that held the plaintiffs did not have standing to challenge the ordinance in federal court. The subject of the lawsuit ir; a 2006 initiative approved by Kem County, known as "Measure E", which bans the land application of biosolids in the unincorporated areas of Kern County. Biosolids generators located in Kern County, such as the City of Bakersfield, are in the incorporated areas of the county and hence immune from the Measure. Among other claims, the lawsuit alleged that Measure E violates the dormant Commerce Clause. The trial court agreed. (City of Los Angeles v. County of Kern, 509 F. Supp. 2d 865 (C.D. Cal. 2007).) But on appeal, the three judge panel held that the district court should not have reached the merits, holding that plaintiffs lack prudential standing to sue under the dormant Commerce Clause. The panel held that transporting biosolids from one part of California to another does not burden the recyclers' protected interest in the interstate waste market, and thus Plaintiffs fell outside the "zone of interests protected by the dormant Commerce clause. The petition for rehearing pointed out that the panel decision conflicts with United States Supreme Court precedent and is in conflict with other appellate decisions. The transport of biosolids from one part of California to another substantially affects interstate commerce and therefore falls within the purview of the dormant Commerce Clause. The panel's decision conflicts with the rule that a State (or one of its political subdivisions) may not avoid the strictures of the Commerce Clause by curtailing the movement of articles of commerce through subdivisions of the State, rather than through the State itself. CASA's petition argued that Congress may regulate the transport of products such as biosolids within a state. Congress routinely regulates in-state economic activity (or businesses that operate solely in-state, on the theory that this economic activity substantially affects interstate commerce. The panel's holding that the large-scale shipment of biosolids within Calrfomia -and the economic consequences on interstate markets and pricing from relocating that shipment to Arizona -does not even implicate the zone of interests protected by the dormant Commerce Clause is contrary to Supreme Court precedent and in conflict with decisions from other federal circuits. The National Associaton of Clean Water Agencies (NACWA) and the National Solid Waste Management Association filed friend of the court briefs in support of the petition for rehearing. A decision on the petition is anticipated in early winter. ~r CASA Active as a Friend of the Court in Several Cases In addition to its litigation program, CASA has provided friend of the court (amicus) support for several cases of interest to CASA members. In late 2008, the California Supreme Court granted CASA's request to file an amicus curiae brief in Communities for a Better Environment v. South Coast Air Quality Management District (2007) 158 Cal.App.4th 1336 (CBE). The primary issue in the case is how to determine the proper baseline under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). The Court of Appeal held the baseline generally hinges on actual existing (rather than permitted) conditions. CBE requires documentation of prior CEQA review for a lead agency to consider performance in determining baseline. If left to stand, CBE may have far-reaching consequences for CASH member agencies with permits that require facility or operational modifications or periodic renewal. CASA was among those organizations that supported Supreme Court review of the case last spring. As CASA explained to the Court, CBE could substantially affect the ability of member agencies to provide vital wastewater services. CASA also joined other local government associations in filing a brief in a case addressing whether a contractor must be required to prove either affirmative misrepresentation or active concealment by a public agency to maintain a contract action for breach of implied warranty based on nondisclosure. (Los Angeles Unified School District v. Great American Insurance Co.) CASA joined the League of California Cities on the brief in support of the Los Angeles Unified School District, urging the Court to overturn the decision of the California Court of Appeal, which held that a mere negligent omission of information is sufficient to support a contract action for breach of the implied warranty of correctness of plans and specifications. In the amicus brief, CASA and the League argued that the decision in Great American adopts a new standard amounting to strict liability for public agencies. The brief points out that other district courts of appeal have required a showing of intentional concealment or positive assertions of misleading information in order to find liability. Without such a standard, the public entity would essentially become a guarantor for the contractor and encourage careless bidding. In its statement of interest in the case, CASA notes that its members routinely engage in planning, design and construction of water and wastewater capital improvements in order to provide essential public services. The vast majority of these projects are constructed by private contractors pursuant to a public bidding process by which the agency is required by law to award construction contracts to the lowest responsible bidder. Given the growing need for repair and replacement of essential public infrastructure, local agencies are confronted with the escalating costs of constructing these projects. In addition, CASA members are subject to permits under federal and state environmental statutes that often require construction of treatment upgrades and other improvements within compressed timeframes. The amicus brief points out that CASA's members are deeply concerned about the Court of Appeal decision because of the specter of increased legal exposure and costs of constructing essential public projects. CASA Executive Board Approves Updates to Litigation Policy As part of the Association's strategic planning effort, the CASA Executive Board established a subcommittee to review and revise the Litigation Policy, which was last amended in 2003. The subcommittee members were First Vice President Ron Young, Director Jeffrey Hansen, and Attorneys Committee Chair Mark Cornelius. One of the key issues the subcommittee addressed was the manner in which litigation should be funded. After considering various models, including the solicitation of individual agency contributions, the subcommittee recommended that approved litigation be considered a core program and funded as part of the regular budget. Under the revised policy, adopted by the Executive Board in May, funding will be included in CASA's annual General Fund budget for approved litigation related expenses, including payment of attorneys' fees and costs for approved litigation. The CASA Executive Board has established a Legal and Regulatory Reserve Fund to enable the organization to retain adequate financial resources for present and future legal activities. The Executive Board retains the authority to transfer these reserve funds into the General Fund as needed as well as replenish the reserve fund on an annual basis to its established level. Because initial funding for the Vacaville litigation was provided through voluntary contributions, the Executive Board chose to continue that funding method for the appeal phase. The revised policy will apply to litigation initiated in the future.

CASA Lends Support to Southern California Reclamation Efforts applications In the wake of the devastating Freeway Complex Fires that ravaged Orange, Riverside and San Bernardino Counties in November 2008, the Santa Ana Regional Water Board passed an emergency resolution to facilitate the use of compost, including Biosolids compost, to provide erosion control and reclamation to the burned areas. Several encouraging meetings were held and attended by CASA. CASA members including compost producers, regulatory staff from the Regional Water Board, the California Integrated 1w,tste Management Board. Cal Trans, the State ~ P;uk Service, UC Riverside and other compost xlucers and appliers. A significant hurdle s pairing land owners or responsible public jurisdictions with funding and reclamation opportunities. Compost producers and even some applicators offered to provide services at a greatly reduced cost but there have been no projects implemented, to date. State Park philosophy that fire is a natural part of the life cycle and that impacts are not mitigated. However, research on the benefits of compost on fire ravaged land is ongoing through UC Riverside. Also, on October 23, 2009, the Santa Ana RWB extended the resolution to be effective until 2014, which will continue to facilitate such use on future fires in the region, which have been declared a disaster area by the Governor. CASA Progressing on Cross Media Issues A CASA working group led by CASA Biosolids Program Manager Greg Kester, Stepahnie Cheng (EBMUD), Mary Jane Foley and John Pastore (SCAP), Jim Dunbar (Potrero Hills Landfill), Matt Bao (LACSD) Zacary Kay (City of Santa Rosa) Bob Gillette (Carollo Engineers), Jim Colston (OCSD) and Lorrie Loder (Synagro) developed a cross media questionnaire and checklist, which was presented to Cal EPA in late April 2009. During the meetings, the group proposed atwo-thronged approach to identify and mitigate potential cross media impacts that arise from the rulemaking process. Top officials of the California Integrated Waste Management Board, State Water Resources Control Board and California Air Resources Board staff provided input and were pleased with CASA's efforts to introduce a new culture of cooperation. The Air Resources Board and State Water Board were expected to consider incorporating the questionnaire into their respective Regulatory Development Guidance training and Water Training Academy. As AB 32 is implemented, we are seeing more cooperation and communication between the various agencies in CAL EPA and remain hopeful that cross media issues are now on everyone's radar and the documents developed as part of this process will be fully utilized. EPA Alarms CA: Plan to Change Factor Revealing ncer Slope In a move that could have far-reaching consequences for wastewater and drinking water agencies, the EPA released a proposed strategy in early 2009 to dramatically increase the Integrated Risk Information System (IRIS) cancer slope factor (CSF) for inorganic arsenic. The EPA proposal hinted of an increase in the cancer slope factor from 1.5 mg/kg to 30.5 mg/ kg. If implemented, the action would represent a 20-fold increase in risk assumed from arsenic, and would likely force limits for effluent, recycled water, drinking water and potentially biosolids to be made dramatically more stringent. There is debate regarding the science and process used in establishing the proposed CSF. It was determined biosolids would likely be less impacted because most of the arsenic present in biosolids is in the organic form. Nevertheless, for water, those impacts would be significant. EPA Explains In response to a CASA inquiry as to the status of the proposed changes, Linda Tuxen, Special Assistant to the Director of the National Center for Environmental Assessment in the Office of Research and Development, stated in late July 2009 that the EPA document had not passed internal review and should never have been released externally. She added that Administrator Lisa Jackson would consider options before making any decision and no timetable had been established on when that decision would be made. CASA Watches and Waits CASA will continue to monitor the cancer slope ractor issue to ensure sound science and appropriate protocols are followed regarding any change to the IRIS factor. Research Proposed for Trace Organics in Land Applied Biosolids CASA Biosolids Manager Greg Kester was selected as one of four individuals to serve on a Steering Committee with a panel of recognized research experts to develop a coherent preliminary research plan for trace organic compounds in land- applied biosolids. The committee was formed under the leadership of the Metropolitan Water Reclamation District of Greater Chicago (MWRD) and the Water Environment Research Foundation (WERE). Its objective is to provide EPA with scientifically defensible research so that risk evaluations may be conducted for perfluorinated compounds, some pharmaceuticals and steroidal hormones. A survey is currently being conducted and has been sent to CASA members, NACWA members and members of Regional Biosolids Associations across the country. A state of the science (SOS) review is underway and is being funded by WERE with a completion date expected in early 2010. The survey and SOS review will help to further inform the research plan which will identify and attempt to fill the most critical data gaps needed to conduct effective risk assessments. A concern of the wastewater community is that without filling these gaps, EPA may still feel compelled to conduct risk assessments with what data they have, and this would not recognize the truly unique matrix that is biosolids. First Lady and Contaminated Sludge - Not a Chance! In June 2009, Mother Jones, the news organization which touts itself as producers of "smart, fearless journalism," criticized Michelle Obama's vegetable garden she started with the help of area schoolchildren. Mother Jones claimed the garden was planted in soil that was highly contaminated with lead from biosolids compost applications made to the White House lawn in the early 1990s. The allegation had no scientific basis and was refuted by three high-profile sources: The Baltimore Sun, Huffington Post (which earlier supported the Mother Jones article) and the White House food and garden blog on the project Obama Foodorama. Scientists quoted in the refutations referred to the White House lead levels of 93 mg/kg as "laughably low for an urban environment" and entirely suitable for use as a vegetable garden. They speculated the source of such lead probably stems from lead paint or from aerosol deposition of gasoline fumes when gas used to contain lead. Food Show to Showcase Garden's Healthy Benefits To underscore the true nutritional value of the White House vegetable garden, the Food Network announced in November 2009 that it would host an episode of "Iron Chet America" using the First Lady's vegetable garden as a culinary backdrop. Top chefs Mario Batali, Bobby Flay and Emeril Lagasse along with White House Chef Cristeta Comerford will be welcomed by Michelle Obama and allowed to use anything found in the garden to help create their meals.
